Alberta's first Power Line Safety Day

Monday, May 3, 2010, marks Alberta's first Power Line Safety Day. Alberta's Joint Utility Safety Team (JUST) is declaring the first Power Line Safety Day to highlight the importance of being vigilant about power line safety around the clock.

Every day, three Albertans risk their lives needlessly by contacting a power line because they didn't ask themselves "Where's the line?"
