I propose that thousands of jobs be created in every state by moving overhead power lines, telephone and cable lines underground.
Why is this important?
Many people lost power during IRENE because tree limbs fell on power lines. If you live on the east coast most likely you or people you know were without electricity and land line service because of downed lines. I know at least 3 families in different areas of NJ and CT who lost power for at least 3 days, and there are still at least 100,000 in the state who still don't have power.
