WaKeeney residents may see people in roads, alleys and yards in coming weeks, conducting routine inspections of Midwest Energy utility poles. 

The contractors, from Global Pole Testing, will take wood samples from all power poles in WaKeeney and the areas surrounding the city, and will dig a few inches around each pole to apply a treatment to them.

Residents are asked to please be aware of the workers when driving on streets and in alleys. The crews will be operating in WaKeeney throughout June and possibly into early July. 

If you have any questions about the pole treatments, call Midwest Energy at (800) 222-3121.
