REC Recognized by Arbor Day Foundation
Fredericksburg, Va. – For the 19

While ensuring that member-owners have reliable electric service, REC’s crews use specialized equipment to work safely and to protect the health of the trees they trim.
“REC works year-round to ensure our certified arborists and forester do their jobs with an eye toward sustainability,” said Cindy Musick, Director of Vegetation Management. “Respecting the environment is key to everything we do.”
