Preparing a Vision
Statement
Vision is a mental image of a
possible and desirable future state of
the utility.
Preparing a Vision
Statement
A Vision Statement evolves out of answers to questions like:
If we could invent the future, what future would we invent for the utility?
What do we have a burning passion about that we would like to be able to
express through our work?
What could be the distinctive role or contribution of the utility in our District
Area?
What is our collective agenda? What do we want to prove?
What is our destiny?
Preparing a Mission
Statement

The Mission Statement is a short, clear statement describing the utilitys
purpose, values. It should be a succinct representation of the utility's purpose for
existence. It should incorporate socially meaningful and measurable criteria
addressing concepts such as the moral/ethical position of the utility, public
image, services provided, the target market, the geographic domain and
expectations of growth. Ultimately, this serves as the guiding principle for all
goals and plans of the utility.
Preparing a Mission
Statement
Generally, a Mission Statement includes:
Purpose of the utility in terms of the scope of its operations;
Priorities for the utilitys future performance; and
Values of the utility in the provision of its services.
Preparing a Mission
Statement
In developing a mission statement, the management staff of the utility should consider the
following questions:
What do we do as a Utility?
Why does the Utility exist?
What is the ultimate result of our work?
What are our priorities?
What do we value?
What is the Utilitys vision?
Should we include a standard of performance?
Should we include a customer statement?
What kind of internal work environment do we want for our employees?

PLAN

The design and
construction of a pipeline
for the most part occurs in
three stages. During the
pre-constructionphase,
highly trained engineers
work to design a system
that meets the needs of
producers and shippers in
moving their product to
the marketplace. At the
same time, pipeline
employees who specialize
in planning work minimize
the impact of construction
projects on the
environment, in addition
to consulting with
communities and
landowners along the
route about the project.
Every pipeline project
planning team must meet
federal and state
requirements, obtain
necessary permits and
respond to local concerns.
Land or Right-of-way
agents, hired by the
pipeline operator, also
work with potential
landowners to secure
easement rights to place
the pipeline along the
selected route.


Typically, the actual
construction phase of a
project occurs in the
shortest amount of time.
But the construction
phase can only begin after
route selection, easement
negotiations,
environmental permitting,
and many other pre-
construction actions have
been accomplished.
Before the line pipe can
be buried, the pipeline
right-of-way must be
cleared and prepared for
construction. Once ready,
the pipeline is carefully
placed in the pre-dug
trench or bored under
waterways or roads. If
trenching is involved, the
trench is filled and post-
construction restoration
begins.


The post-construction
phase of any project
addresses several aspects
including restoring the
surface of the land
affected by the trenching.
Work then begins to
reconstruct the surface of
the land. Before the
pipeline is placed into
service, the pipe and
components are again
tested in the field with a
water pressure, weld x-
rays and a variety of other
inspection tests. Each
stage of this process is
overseen by qualified
inspectors to ensure
compliance with the
engineering plan, codes,
permit conditions,
landowner and easement
agreements, and
regulatory requirements.

While this overview gives
you a general idea about
pipeline construction,
there are many important
steps along the way. To
get a better
understanding of the
construction process, we
invite you to take a closer
look at the process and
the many people that
make it all happen.
