Ringgold is the county seat of Catoosa County, Georgia, less than 20 miles southeast of downtown Chattanooga on I-75. The town sits at Ringgold Gap, between Taylor Ridge and White Oak Mountain, with rolling, wooded land around it. Many homes in Catoosa County sit on larger lots with woods at the back, and some are on the slopes of the ridges.
A town that knows storms
On April 27, 2011, an EF4 tornado tore through Ringgold during the Super Outbreak, destroying homes and businesses and stripping trees across town before continuing into Tennessee toward Apison. Much of Ringgold has rebuilt, and many yards have young trees that are now growing fast. Those trees benefit from early structural pruning, so they're stronger the next time a big storm comes through.

Common questions
Do Georgia rules differ from Tennessee for tree work?
A few things change at the state line. Utility locates go through Georgia 811 instead of Tennessee 811, outdoor burning follows Georgia's rules and permits, and your electric provider is likely Georgia Power or North Georgia EMC instead of EPB. The tree work itself is the same.
Who handles trees near my power line in Catoosa County?
Your electric provider trims around its main lines. Trees near the line from the pole to your house are usually the owner's responsibility. Call the provider on your bill to schedule a disconnect so a crew can work safely.
