4 5 6 Excerpts from FERC Orders -- For Reference Purposes Only Updated Through September 1, 2010 FAC-014-2 Order 693 March 16, 2007 P 1050. The FAC series of standards contain the Reliability Standards that form the technical and procedural … basis for calculating transfer capabilities. FAC-008-1 provides the basis for determining the thermal ratings of facilities while FAC-009-1 provides the basis for communicating those ratings. FAC-010-1 and FAC-011-1 provide the system operating limits methodologies for the planning and operational horizon respectively and FAC-014 provides for the communication of those ratings. Order 705 December 20, 2007 P 83. The Commission agrees that it is appropriate in this instance to adopt NERC’s revised effective dates of July 1, 2008 for FAC-010-1, October 1, 2008 for FAC-011-1 and January 1, 2009 for FAC-014-1. Given that this Final Rule will not be effective until January 2008, it is reasonable to allow responsible entities in the adequate time to comply with these Reliability Standards. P 84. As for Ontario IESO’s concerns with the different implementation dates in and the , we agree that effective dates should be coordinated if practicable. In these circumstances, however, we foresee no problems arising from the effective dates approved here. P 164. The Commission agrees with NERC that the Requirements to follow a methodology when determining SOLs are included in FAC-014-1. However, as the Commission states FAC-010-1, Requirements establish the performance metrics of the SOL methodology used. Thus, if the planning authority’s methodology to develop SOLs does not meet the demonstrated performance metrics of these Requirements in a planning time horizon, then under emergency, abnormal, or restorative conditions, the Bulk-Power System would be at risk of instability, separation, or cascading failures. P173. The Commission agrees with NERC that FAC-014-1, Requirement R5 is not at the prevention and/or mitigation of IROLs, but rather the communication of SOL and IROL information. a failure to notify … adjacent entities of an actual or potential IROL creates a demonstrable risk because it impairs the ability of neighboring entities to effectively monitor the Bulk-Power System. In addition, the Commission believes that
