SCE - Track 1 Updated Workplan Report – September 14, 2020

1

Introduction and Summary

SCE submits this report to address Track 1 matters and pole data items identified in the D.20-07-

004 in I.17-06-027 issued by the Commission on July 21, 2020, and to update SCE’s Track 1

workplan originally submitted on October 2, 2019.

1. Goals and objectives

The goal of this workplan is to provide qualifying jurisdictional entities (pole attachers) and

Commission staff electronic access to SCE’s refreshed data portal (SPIDAMin). SCE plans

to update the existing external facing pole information portal, ‘SPIDAMin®’1 to meet all

requirements set forth in D.20-07-004.

2. Current Data

The following information is currently available to qualifying jurisdictional entities via

SCE’s SPIDAMin portal.

• Unique identifier of pole (pole number)

• Pole location information (GIS coordinates)

• Pole location information (address)

• Install date (or ‘start-up’ date)

• Pole length, class, and material

• Ownership information

Name of other joint owners

Space / grade info (if available)

percentage ownership of each joint owner(s) (if available)

• Wood pole intrusive test data:

Date of last test

test result

The SPIDAMin portal also includes a geo-spatial map that allows the user to select a specific

pole and view the information listed above.

• Available pole information is researchable on a pole by pole basis

1 SCE’s current SPIDAMin portal operating version is 6.3.0.0.

• Pole information can be viewed but not exported

3. Updates to SCE SPIDAMin Data Portal

A. In accordance with ordering paragraph 2 of D.20-07-004 SCE’s IT department will

work collaboratively with SPIDAWeb LLC technicians to develop new or improved

interface solutions to extract relevant information from SCE’s work management

system (SAP). SCE believes it will be able to make the following information

researchable and exportable via SPIDAMin.

i. Unique identifier of pole includes, at a minimum and by each service

territory, a pole number and address (either street or some other easily

identifiable address system) on a Geospatial map and should be included

in the database.

ii. Each of the five pole owners must have, at a minimum, a Geographic

Information System accessible to attachers, pole owners, and Commission

staff which includes the latitude/longitude coordinates, address (if

available), and service territory for locating the poles.

iii. High Fire Threat District tiers where the pole is located.

iv. The poles’ class, height, tree species, material circumference, and latest

loading information.

v. The year the pole was installed.

vi. Joint pole ownership information including the name of joint owners and

percentage of ownership of the pole.

vii. Intrusive test data including the date of last intrusive test, type of test,

results of the test, and any corrective action that has been or will be taken

in response to the test.

viii. The number and date of each attachment application, and pole loading

information, if any.

ix. Notice of pending pole replacement or reinforcement including the reason

for the replacement or reinforcement, the proposed scope of work,

x. Information on buddy poles, including an indication of whether the pole

owner wishes to remove a buddy pole and the date of removal.

B. SCE will also comply with the Track 1 Work Plan modification indicated in

Ordering Paragraph 2 of D.20-07-004.

i. SCE will incorporate a data glossary into the data portal. The purpose of

the data glossary is to identify and document the data fields provided in

the data portal, including short description, data format, data field type,

and other metadata that will enable users to understand and use the data.

SCE’s portal shall include a Data Glossary and will make sure that

wherever feasible, the terms in the 5 pole owners glossaries mean the

same thing. No terms in any of the 5 pole owners Data Glossaries shall

contradict terms as defined in the Commission’s General Orders.

ii. The 5 pole owners will continue convene with the working group to reach

a consensus recommendation for the data elements that will use common

data definitions.

iii. The 5 pole owners have reached agreement on the definitions of the terms

in the data glossary.

iv. All 10 pole datapoints of pole data for jointly and solely owned poles shall

be provided through SCE’s Data Portals unless the datapoints are

specifically allowed to be ‘if available’ AND are not available. Data for

the ten data fields must be searchable and exportable as machine readable

data and through the web-based interactive portal.

v. SCE will continue to convene in a working group with the 5 pole owners

to develop a consensus recommendation for the method to be used for

sharing or synchronizing data for the ten key data elements related to

joint-owned poles with the other joint pole owner(s).

vi. All 10 pole datapoints will be searchable by two years from the issuance

of D.20-07-004 via the pole owners Data Portals, including by pole

number, latitude/longitude or Address location.

vii. Capability for Data Portal pole locational and identifying information will

be implemented in some form by two years from the date of D.20-07-004

for poles that do not have locational and identifiable information.

viii. The Data Portal shall allow for selecting and viewing multiple poles on a

geospatial map using polygons and multi-pole selection capabilities.

ix. The Data Portal shall display the 10 pole datapoints for selected poles and

allow the information to be viewed and exportable as machine readable

data for at least 10 poles by one year and for at least 100 poles by two

years from the date of D.20-07-004.

x. Within 60 days of D.20-07-004, SCE will file and serve its updated Track

1 Workplan to demonstrate compliance with D.20-07-004 ordered

modifications by Tier 2 Advice Letter for review by the Energy Division.

xi. Initial electronic access to the pole data in the newly expanded and/or

created data portal shall be available within one year from the date of

D.20-07-004.

xii. The Commission’s staff shall be given unrestricted access to SCE’s data

portal via web portal within one year from the date of D.20-07-004, with

further options to be discussed in future Tracks of this Proceeding.

4. Conclusion

It is SCE’s intent to comply with all aspects of D.20-07-004.
