I looked back & didn't see this previously posted, if I duplicate it, sorry.

There was a joint news release on 12/6/02 from American Electric Power (AE) & the KDFWR where they will pay land owners 80% up to $300.00 per acre (max $2000.00) for habitat enhancement under power lines plus an additional $100/acre if the owner maintains it over 3 years.

A biologists will visit the property & owners must follow the biologists' recommendations.

Thought this might be worth looking into if you have power lines across your property. The instructions are to contact the following:

Mike Chedster or Phil Ross with AEP on 1800-572-1113 or machedester@aep.com or ptross@aep.com. Also, you can contact the KDFWR at 1-800-858-1549.

Now you know as much as I do about it.
