NYSEG helicopter to inspect lines
Weather permitting, residents may see a helicopter flying low over parts of Cayuga and Onondaga counties Tuesday, July 17. New York State Electric & Gas will be conducting routine inspections of high-voltage power lines in the region.
Judy Schroeder, NYSEG's director of regional operations, said in a news release that helicopters make inspecting power lines fast and efficient and that the helicopters provide an excellent vantage point for the work.

The Cayuga County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to Montezuma early Sunday morning to the scene of a one-car accident, according to Sgt. Corey Colton.
Cynthia A. Verdi, 18, of Port Byron, drove her Ford pick-up truck off West Loop Road one-tenth of a mile south of Dwyer Road in Montezuma, causing it to roll over.
The accident was reported at 3:33 a.m.
Verdi was admitted by an ambulance from the Port Byron Fire Department to State University of New York Upstate Medical University in Syracuse with possible hand and lower arm injuries.
Updates on Verdi's status was unavailable at time of press.
Officials secured blood, and are now waiting for the rests of the test to see if there was impairment, Colton said.
“Speed may also be a contributing factor,” he said.
