The Dayton Daily News reported on Thursday,
Dead and dying trees — especially ash trees destroyed by the emerald ash borer — contributed heavily to storm-related power outages that affected more than a million Ohioans, Dayton Power & Light said Thursday.
DP&L said more ash trees could fall. Some dying trees outside the utility’s easement areas are menacing lines now. The utility asked private landowners to check the areas immediately and take down dying trees before they fall on lines and knock out power again.
