NERC FFT Reports: Reliability Standard EOP-003-1

Find, Fix and Track Entity, Docket No. RC11-6 (September 30, 2011)

Reliability Standard: EOP-003-1

Requirement: R8

Region: FRCC

Issue: During a compliance audit, FRCC determined that FFT Entity did not possess sufficient documentation showing that it had plans for operator controlled manual load shedding to be used in response to real-time emergencies.

Finding: FRCC found that this issue constituted only a minimal risk to BPS reliability since FFT Entity’s system operators are authorized, based on other company documents, to shed load in response to real-time emergencies. Furthermore, FFT Entity is a relatively small entity.
