Managing Trees Under Powerlines
One of the major challenges of There is a legislative requirement for SA Power Networks
to inspect and manage trees under powerlines to minimise
growing trees in the urban risk to life and property and maintain safe power supply.

clearance zones between the tree crown and the lines.

overhead powerlines. SA Power Networks manage more than 71,000km of overhead
powerlines servicing approximately 840,000 residential and
business customers across South Australia. Each year, SA
Power Networks spend considerable resources inspecting and
trimming vegetation under powerlines to meet safety and
legislative requirements.
The current clearance requirements, however do not account
for visual amenity or tree balance and long-term health,
resulting in many trees in urban areas being trimmed in a
manner that creates unsightly canopies which may decline
in health, and subsequently limit benefits able to be provided
by trees (e.g. shading and cooling, biodiversity, air pollution
filtering).
Management of vegetation clearance under powerlines is
imposed under the Electricity Act 1996 and the Electricity
(Principles of Vegetation Clearance) Regulations 2010.
Clearance zones consider movement of the trees and the
growth and regrowth rates of the trees during the cyclic
cutting interval, which is a risk-based approach (1-3 year cycle)
in bushfire risk areas, and once every 3 years in non-bushfire
risk areas.
6 Powerline Friendly Trees | SA Power Networks
Much of this trimming works is required due to a legacy
of planting species under powerlines that grow to an
inappropriate height at maturity, resulting in conflicts with SA POWER NETWORKS
powerlines. For further information on the vegetation clearance
requirements, refer to SA Power Network’s Protocol for HAVE A COMMITMENT TO
Vegetation Management Neat Powerlines 2016-2018.

For example:

• Climate and soil type;
• Weather conditions (e.g. coastal salt spray, wind intensity,

• Growth form (e.g. narrow upright forms that maintain
line-of-sight along roads);
• Visual amenity;
• Community conflict (e.g. allergies);
• Biodiversity value/resources;
• Weed / invasive potential;
• Resilience to climate change (e.g. increased species diversity,
and consideration of pest/disease impacts); and
• Maintenance requirements (e.g. watering and pruning)
and cost-benefit of plantings.
Councils may additionally have their own preferred tree
species planting lists which may include species not shown in

All 68 local government areas These local government areas were classified into five broad
zones, referred to here as “climate zones”. Climate zones will
contain non-bushfire risk areas, be important for influencing the growth rate and condition of
as defined by SA Power Networks species as well as the maintenance required. Three of the zones
are true climate zones as defined by the Bureau of Meteorology
and refined by CSIRO’s Australian Water Availability Project
(Table 1). An additional two zones not recognized as formal
climate zones were included given the contrasting growing
conditions in these areas (Table 1):
AN ECOTONE IS A 1. mild temperate (distinctly dry and warm summer);
TRANSITIONAL AREA 2. warm temperate (distinctly dry and hot summer); and

are likely to be most apparent at current climatic ecotones.
Accordingly, shared climatic ecotones have also been identified
for each Council area, as trees suitable in one climate zone may
also do well in a neighbouring climate zone, particularly in
areas near the ecotone (Table 1).

identified by the Local Government Association of South Australia. Climate zones allocated for each Council area are
based on information derived from the Bureau of Meteorology and the Australian Water Availability Project. Note that
some Councils cover more than one climate zone. A star in a cell indicates that the Council area shares an ecotone
with the indicated climate zone/s. This acknowledges that climatic conditions may be particularly dynamic at climate
zone boundaries, and tree species identified as suitable for one climate zone may also do well in other climate zones
along a shared climatic ecotone.

Non-bushfire risk areas
Further information include maps of non-bushfire risk and bushfire risk areas is provided in Schedule 4
of the Electricity Regulations (Principles of Vegetation Clearance) 2010
Nursery and Garden Industry
www.ngisa.com.au
Planting restrictions over underground power lines
Near an underground power line of 66 kV or more, only trees with a mature height of less than 2 metres can be
planted within 3 metres of the centre of the underground power line.
Electricity Act 1996 and Electricity Regulations
(Principles of Vegetation Clearance) 2010
Proposed changes to the Act and Regulations seek to extend the risk-based approach (adopted in metropolitan
Adelaide in 2010) for clearance around low voltage powerlines to a number of non-bushfire risk areas to align
clearance with risk (see diagram below). This includes the 10 towns over 10,000 residents: Mt Gambier, Port Pirie,
Port Lincoln, Port Augusta, Whyalla, Victor Harbour/Goolwa, Mt Barker, Murray Bridge, and Gawler.
Proposed changes also seek to remove the prescribed Lists contained within Schedule 2 of the Regulations to
enable the List of approved species to be more flexible. Instead, a note within the Regulations would refer to a
List of species approved by the Office of the
Existing legislation (Non-bushfire risk areas) Proposed ‘risk-based’ legislation (Non-bushfire risk areas)
Clearance zone – Trees allowed to ‘grow through’ Low Voltage powerlines based on a risk assessment
Vegetation must be clear from inside of legislated Clearance Zones
Low Voltage (LV) LV and High Voltage (HV) Low Voltage (LV) LV and High Voltage (HV)
Key considerations:
1. Availability of emergency services 3. Built-up areas
2. Population density (>10,000) 4. Non-bushfire risk area
