FRED: THE PLAN PHASE  
 
Check Act Plan Do

The Plan Phase: Planning

ATC looks at the company's values, vision and mission, assesses the company's environmental aspects and impacts, and considers its regulatory and other requirements in order to develop environmental goals and objectives. Once ATC's environmental goals and objectives are established, they are used to guide processes, procedures, and policies within the company, and help achieve our environmental goals.

At ATC we plan for both the short terms aspects of our environmental operations and the long term conservation, stewardship and sustainability goals that we share with stakeholders within and around or service territory.

ATC Practices in the Plan Phase:
  • Policy setting
  • Risk analysis
  • Customer and stakeholder suggestions
  • Goal setting
  • Regulatory analysis
