Starting mid-February, McCulloch Utilities Services, Inc. is scheduled to begin inspecting power poles in Aiken County near the Monetta substation.

The pole inspector will then move to the North district to inspect poles in the Swansea substation's service area and in the Pooles Mill substation's service area.

The pole inspection workforce will consist of one man and one pick-up truck that will have an Aiken Co-op logo on both sides - the same sign that is on Co-op owned pick-ups. The inspector will always be wearing a hard hat and orange or green traffic vest while working.
