• Shocking of personnel, who touch the pivot, computerized panels affected.
• Corridor may open up more lines.
• Electrical pumps shorten life.
• Bigger weed impact to control.
• Not compensated properly- BLM and Indians get better deal
• Put power lines closer to your home than they would a sage grouse nest.
