Authors: Tim Miller, Conrad Wilson

To comply with the recently enacted Distribution Integrity Management regulation, MichCon is in the process of implementing an analytical risk model that executes within the ArcGIS environment. This session will provide an overview of the Distribution Integrity Risk Model, along with a discussion of the key project tasks and decision factors encountered during the model configuration effort. Topics to be covered include -
. Cataloging and evaluating data for inclusion in the risk models,
. Establishing a strategy for system segmentation and evaluation,
. Reviewing and analyzing risk model results.
