A line crew works to reroute the feed to and from the substation at the power plant to eliminate the span across Hammer Slough, said Utility Director Karl Hagerman. The previous feed was held over Hammer Slough by two rotten poles. By rerouting the electrical feed, Petersburg Power and Light will clean up the look of the historic Hammer Slough and Birch St. areas while getting rid of the liability that was posed by the rotten poles, according to Hagerman.
