JCP&L Routine Patrols

Please be advised that JCP&L will be conducting routine patrols of our transmission lines starting on August 5th. All lines to be flown are within JCP&L service territory. These patrols will be performed by our contractor, GeoDigital and are expected to be completed around September 15th, 2024. Inclement weather or any line outage patrols may prolong completion. The helicopter being used for these patrols is a Helo Air Bell Jet Ranger 206B, blue and white in color, tail number N894HA (see attached image). A routine patrol is flown at about 30-35 mph and 400’ above the transmission line(s) and structure. The pilot will be in communication with any local airports when in their airspace.
