Transmission Line Siting Model (Hypothetical Example) Criteria – the transmission line route should… Goal – identify the best route for an electric transmission line that considers various criteria for minimizing adverse impacts. Existing Powerline ProposedSubstation (Berry) Sensitive Areas Avoid areas within or near sensitive areas Avoid areas within or near sensitive areas Roads Avoid areas that are far from roads Avoid areas that are far from roads Houses Avoid areas of high housing density Avoid areas of high housing density HousesElevation Avoid areas of high visual exposure to houses Avoid areas of high visual exposure to houses

(Berry) AVOID AREAS OF HIGH VISUAL EXPOSURE Criteria – the transmission line route should avoid… Areas of high housing density Areas of high housing density Areas that are far from roads Areas that are far from roads Areas within or near sensitive areas Areas within or near sensitive areas Areas of high visual exposure to houses Areas of high visual exposure to houses HOUSING DENSITY AVOID AREAS OF HIGH HOUSING DENSITY ROADS PROXIMITY TO ROADS AVOID AREAS THAT ARE FAR FROM ROADS SENSITIVE AREAS PROXIMITY TO SENSITIVE AREAS AVOID AREAS IN OR NEAR SENSITIVE AREAS VISUAL EXPOSURE TO HOUSES AVOID AREAS OF HIGH VISUAL EXPOSURE AVOID AREAS OF HIGH HOUSING DENSITY AVOID AREAS THAT ARE FAR FROM ROADS AVOID AREAS IN OR NEAR SENSITIVE AREAS HOUSING BaseMapsDerivedMapsCost/AvoidanceMaps ELEVATION Siting Model Flowchart (Model Logic) AVG_PREF AVERAGE COST Step 1 Discrete Preference STARTING LOCATION ACCUMULATION SURFACE START ACUMM_PREF Step 2 Accumulated Preference ENDING LOCATION MOST PREFERRED ROUTE END BEST_ROUTE Step 3 Steepest Path

Step 1 Discrete Preference Map … identifies the relative preference of locating a transmission line at any location throughout a project area considering multiple criteria Discrete Preference map draped on Elevation Least Most Preferred HD R SA VE (Berry)

Step 2 Accumulated Preference Map … identifies the preference to construct the preferred transmission line from a starting location to everywhere in a project area Splash Algorithm – like tossing a stick into a pond with waves emanating out and accumulating costs as the wave front moves (Berry)

Step 3 Most Preferred Route … the steepest downhill path over the accumulated preference surface identifies the most preferred route — minimizes areas to avoid Preferred Route (Berry)

Siting Model Flowchart (Model Logic) Model logic is captured in a flowchart where the boxes represent maps and lines identify processing steps leading to a spatial solution Avoid areas of… High Housing Density Far from Roads In or Near Sensitive Areas High Visual Exposure RankingsWeights(Berry)

Calibrating Map Layers (Relative Preferences) The Delphi Process is used to achieve consensus among group participants. It is a structured method involving iterative use of anonymous questionnaires and controlled feedback with statistical aggregation of group response. Model calibration refers to establishing a consistent scale from 1 (most preferred) to 9 (least preferred) for rating each map layer 1 for 0 to 5 houses …group consensus is that low housing density is most preferred (Berry)

Model weighting establishes the relative importance among map layers (model criteria) on a multiplicative scale …group consensus is that housing density is very important (10.38 times more important than sensitive areas) Weighting Map Layers (Relative Importance) The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to establish relative importance among siting criteria based on group values. The procedure involves mathematically summarizing paired comparisons of the map layers’ importance. (Berry) ( SA VS. HD )— avoiding locations of high Housing Density is very strongly to extremely more important (rating= 8) than avoiding locations close to Sensitive Areas. HD * R * 3.23 SA * 1.00 VE * 10.64

Generating Alternate Routes (changing weights) The model is run using three different sets of weights for the map layers— …to generate three alternative routes (draped over Elevation map) (Berry)

Key Concern GIS-based approaches for siting electric transmission lines utilize relative rankings and weights in considering factors affecting potential routes… A quantitative process for establishing objective and consistent rankings and weights is critical in developing a robust transmission line routing methodology… The weights for numerous factors, such as slope, proximity to existing roads and population density, are established for each grid cell location then analyzed for the overall “most preferred path” in a project area. In practice, the criteria rankings and sub-model weights are altered to identify a set of alternatives to evaluated for the best route. This workshop is designed to establish baseline criteria ratings and sub- model weights based on different group perspectives of the relative importance of the various routing considerations. (Berry)
