However, pollinator populations have been decreasing in recent decades. Researchers say one factor contributing to the decline is the degradation and loss of their habitat. Northern Arizona University ecologist and conservation biologist <strong>Clare Aslan<\/strong> says utility companies, like Salt River Project (SRP), have an opportunity to improve the habitat for pollinators in their rights-of-way (ROWs) created through the landscape for power lines.\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/news\/aslan-pollinator-habitats\/#.YEaYw2hKjGh\">LEARN MORE<\/a>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bees, butterflies and other insects are important plant pollinators in natural ecosystems and agricultural settings.
