MPSC: DTE not at fault in wind storm fires
------------
I'm not sure if it is the MPSC or Freep that is laughable for letting this statement slide:
1. But the MPSC noted that Detroit Edison spends 26% more time tree-trimming in Detroit over the last five years than any other city and than it spent 14% more time on maintenance and operations of the system in Detroit than the rest of the region.
My commentary - Do they not care to consider area of land, number of lines or number of trees? I would venture to guess that Detroit has more than 26% more lines, trees and land than any other city in their system. Just stupid way to quantify their justification of service in Detroit. Sadly, the Freep just sucks it up.
