Environmental plan template
This template is intended to be used by the contractor in the development of an objectspecific environmental plan in line with Svenska kraftnät’s environmental document
TR 13-01. The object-specific environmental plan must follow the structure of this
template. Text highlighted in grey is used as a guide for the contractor to ensure compliance with Svenska kraftnät’s wishes.
The environmental plan shall show how the entrepreneur manages operations when
working for Svenska kraftnät, what to document and what should be monitored to
demonstrate that environmental requirements are met. The environmental plan must
deal with those things that are relevant to the tasks performed. The descriptions in the
environmental plan must be of sufficient quality so that Svenska kraftnät can assess
whether environmental requirements are met. The Environmental plan must be reviewed, approved and signed by Svenska kraftnät and the contractor before any work
can commence on site. The undersigned contractor undertakes to carry out the work in
SvK4008E, v3.0, 2014-01-09
accordance with the environmental plan and to ensure that all subcontractors comply
with the requirements. There must be a designated person responsible for each section
in the environmental plan tasked with ensuring that what is written is carried out and
that it is updated as necessary. Updates of the environmental plan and its annexes
must be documented continuously. Any deviations from the environmental plan must
be reported to Svenska kraftnät. In cases where an action plan for land and water exists, the environmental plan must be checked against this so that there are no conflicts
between the plans. The environmental plan is to be understood by and accessible to all
staff concerned.
