Fixing Problems Before They Occur: Routine Pole Maintenance,
Identifying Risks!

AT&T is performing routine pole inspections throughout The City of Oregon. You may see crews from Davey Resource Group working on behalf of AT&T in your neighborhood.

These contractors visually inspect utility poles for damage and may use methods such as probing or drilling to check the interior of poles for decay or insect infestation.

The purpose of these inspections is to maintain the structural integrity of the poles, help prevent service outages, and ensure the continued safety and reliability of the utility system.

✅Yes, we're still doing this.

Northwest Ohio's largest watershed clean-up needs YOU (And your questionable fashion choices in waders)

Stick around for our Volunteer Appreciation Picnic at the Lucas County Fairgrounds. Translation: We bribe you with food. It works.
See you there, stream team!

💦This year, we’re celebrating 30 Years of Clean Your Streams Day! We’re pulling out all the stops (and all of the litter) with a goal of having 1,000+ volunteers participate.
