While ComEd’s human summer interns are heading back to college, our four-legged interns – which are the G.O.A.T. and also literally goats – will get to work, but not before they get one more summer hoorah under their hooves.
This September, more than 200 hungry and ambitious goat interns will return to ComEd for a fourth summer to manage vegetation under our power lines. This year they’ll be working in Matthiessen State Park in Oglesby, Ill.
During their two-week ‘goat-ternship,’ these four-legged employees will eat their way through vegetation under power lines to prevent power outages by clearing brush under difficult to access areas.
