Hydro & Right-of-Way Clearing

Right-of-way clearing and vegetation maintenance that keeps transmission and utility corridors safe, accessible, and compliant.

Wild Timber Industries provides hydro clearing and right-of-way clearing for transmission corridors, distribution lines, and utility infrastructure across British Columbia and Alberta. We keep corridors clear of hazard vegetation so power keeps flowing and crews keep access.

From line clearing and electrical forestry to ongoing vegetation maintenance, our crews work to utility standards and the safe-limits-of-approach rules that govern work near energized conductors. One contractor, fully accountable for the corridor.

Capabilities

Corridors kept clear.

Right-of-way work for utilities, independent power producers, and infrastructure owners.

01

Right-of-way clearing

Initial clearing and widening of transmission and distribution corridors, brushed and cleared to spec.

02

Vegetation maintenance

Cycle-based maintenance to keep hazard trees and encroaching brush off the line and out of the corridor.

03

Electrical forestry

Crews trained for the limits-of-approach and hazard awareness that line clearing near energized conductors demands.

Line clearing built around the corridor

Right-of-way clearing is not just falling trees in a straight line. It is hazard-tree identification, danger-tree assessment, brush control, and access maintenance, all run to the standards your utility and your insurer expect. Wild Timber crews handle the full scope, from initial clear of a new corridor through repeated maintenance cycles.

We integrate hydro clearing with our danger tree assessment and vegetation management services, so a single crew can identify, prescribe, and remove hazards along the line in one mobilization.

FAQ

Hydro clearing questions

What is right-of-way clearing?

Right-of-way clearing is the removal of trees, brush, and hazard vegetation from the corridor under and beside power lines, pipelines, or other linear infrastructure, to keep the corridor safe and accessible.

Do your crews work near energized lines?

Our crews are trained for the hazard awareness and limits-of-approach requirements that govern vegetation work near energized conductors. Specific energized work is always coordinated with the utility.

Do you offer maintenance cycles, not just initial clearing?

Yes. We handle both initial corridor clearing and recurring vegetation maintenance cycles to keep the right-of-way compliant over time.
