Proper cleanup of broken limbs and trees following an ice storm

Driving around Salem we have seen so much damage to trees. We have received several calls regarding how to prune these damaged trees. Here are a few links from reliable sources that you should review. Please remember if there are any power lines involved do not attempt to remove branches. Call your electric company.
