Powerline Hazard Assessment
The Powerline Hazard Assessment Plan (PHAP) is applicable to all powerlines within the province of Alberta and is a requirement
in the Environmental Field Report (EFR) for powerlines that fall within the Forest Protection Area (FPA). This also applies
to Vegetation Control Easements (VCE), but not to underground lines.
The purpose of the PHAP is to reduce wildfires caused by powerline contacts or equipment failures and the threat of infrastructure
damage from an encroaching wildfire.
