Preparations include, among others, posting of line crews in strategic pre-selected locations to speed up actual deployment, inspection and evaluation of damages on facilities; postponement of all scheduled transmission line and substation shutdowns in the affected areas until such time that the situation has stabilized; and the provision of back-up telecommunication facilities, equipment, vehicles, line materials and hardware necessary for the immediate repair of transmission facilities.
