50107: Best Practices For A Risk-Based Approach To Vegetation Management Of Distribution Lines

In order to arrive at best practices for risk-based approach to Integrated Vegetation Management on distribution lines, a review of topics related to distribution vegetation management and a survey of 15 utility distribution vegetation managers were conducted. Specific topics of interest included: ROW vegetation management, integrated vegetation management (IVM), remote sensing, light detection and ranging (LiDAR), risk management related to utility vegetation management, utility vegetation mana

3233: Best Practices for a Risk-Based Approach to Vegetation Management

In order to determine best practices for a risk-based approach to vegetation management, a review of topics related to transmission vegetation management was conducted along with a survey of 24 utility transmission vegetation managers. The interviewed utility personnel manage approximately 30 percent of all rights-of-way (ROW) in excess of 100 kV in North America. Specific topics of interest included: ROW vegetation management, integrated vegetation management (IVM), remote sensing, light detect

4101: The Business Case for Herbicide Use in Integrated Vegetation Management Programs

This study compares the cost of maintaining vegetation on electric transmission right of way (ROW) corridors with and without the use of herbicides. Species of trees within electric utility's ROWs have the potential to grow into conflict with overhead electric utility lines and are incompatible with the intended land use. Electric utilities throughout North America maintain vegetation within the ROW by controlling the growth of incompatible species. Three case studies were used to compare the co

Resiliency Resources Inventory

This Resiliency Resources Inventory is a compilation of resources across a sub-set of CEATI's transmission and distribution groups focused on enhancing the reliability and resilience of T&D systems. The inventory identifies ongoing and completed projects, as well as completed webinars, workshops and information exchanges showcasing innovations and best practices across multiple facets of power system resiliency. The inventory identifies resources on infrastructure hardening, grid moderniza

4105: An Analysis of PhoDAR vs. LiDAR for Collecting Spatial Data by Electrical Utilities and Operational Recommendations for Use

Advancements and innovations in mapping technologies provide electrical utility operators with timely and multidimensional spatial data to meet compliance requirements, situational awareness, and predictive modeling in support of vegetation management and asset monitoring. Photogrammetry techniques commonly referred to as PhoDAR or Structure from Motion (SfM), and LiDAR are common 3D digital mapping techniques that are continually advancing and thus gaining popularity for use in the market.

4103: Powerline Vegetation Management Best Practices within Boreal Forest Caribou Regions

Caribou face threats from several sources, including habitat loss or alteration (including sensory disturbance), vehicle collisions, predation, and hunting. Powerline Rights-of-Way (RoWs), along with other linear features built through caribou ranges, contribute to these threats directly (e.g., direct habitat loss from RoW construction) or indirectly (e.g., increased predation pressure from wolves in caribou habitat along RoWs).The objective of this document is to define powerline vegetation man

4102: Control of weeds in electrical facilities such as substations, switchyards, capacitor stations, and cable termination sites

Industrial site vegetation management (ISVM) is performed in and around electric facilities, such as substations, powerplants, pole-yards, solar installations, and wind generation, as well as a myriad of other infrastructures such as oil, gas, highways, and railroads. The square miles(km) of non-paved land maintained by ISVM are unknown but these sites are collectively substantial and ubiquitous across populated areas of North America. The study included a review of related literature and a surv

4106: Practical Use of Earth Imagery Using Satellites for Utility Vegetation Management

Vegetation management is an important component of utility network maintenance activities. The planning of vegetation management activities requires information on the condition of trees, which can be collected in the field or using remote sensing technologies. Remote sensing data can be collected using a variety of platforms, the principal being unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), manned aircraft, and satellite. Each platform has advantages, limitations, and ranges in data reso
