RE:

Standards for Business Practices of Public Utilities (Docket No. RM 05-5 et al)

Dear Ms. Bose:
The North American Energy Standards Board ("NAESB") herewith submits this report to the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission ("FERC" or "Commission") regarding NAESB’s activities from February 2009 to July
2012 with respect to Version 003 of the NAESB Wholesale Electric Quadrant (“WEQ”) standards. The NAESB
WEQ Version 003 standards approved by the WEQ Executive Committee and ratified by the membership were
published on July 31, 2012 and are referenced herein.1 An executive summary of the changes which resulted in
Version 003 is included in the attached report, along with a description of the standards that were created or
modified as part of Version 003.
The standards in this submittal include modifications of existing standards or new standards to support FERC Order
Nos. 8902, 890-A3, 890-B4 and 890-C,5 including the standards to support Network Integration Transmission Service
on Open Access Same-Time Information System (OASIS), the previously filed standards to support Service Across
Multiple Transmission Systems (SAMTS)6, standards to support the Commissions policy regarding rollover rights
for redirects on a firm basis, standards that incorporate the functionality for transmission providers to credit redirect
requests with the capacity of the parent reservation and standards modifications to support consistency across the
OASIS related standards. In addition to the standards modifications and development of new standards related to

FERC Order No. 890, modifications were made to the set of OASIS Business Practice Standards to support FERC
Order Nos. 676,7 676-A,8 676-E9 and 71710 and for the purpose of consistency.
Standards included in this submittal that are not related to the OASIS set of standards include, modifications to the
Coordinate Interchange standards to compliment the updates to the e-Tag specification,11 modifications to the
Gas/Electric Coordination standards to provide consistency between the two markets and a standard set of terms,
definitions and acronyms applicable to all NAESB WEQ standards. The report also includes standards for Demand
Side Management and Energy Efficiency, as previously filed with the Commission on April 17, 200912 and April 30,
201113 and the Smart Grid related standards previously filed with the Commission on July 7, 2011.14
The development efforts in NAESB reflect the work of multiple market interests. In addition, the NAESB WEQ has
worked in close coordination with NERC on business practice standards that are complementary to NERC reliability
standards so that the standards for both organizations remain in lock-step for consistency in the wholesale electric
industry. The inter-organization collaborations are not only permitted in the NAESB process, but strongly
encouraged – to provide an environment in which standards development has a more diverse vetting in the industry
and a resulting broader acceptance and application.
Some of the standards development activity undertaken that produced Version 003 had considerable industry debate
before an agreement was reached on the level of standardization needed and the actual text of the standards
themselves. The NAESB process supports a wide range of perspectives, and through a public process permitting all
segments of the marketplace to voice equally their issues, balanced voting allows a disparate group to move towards
consensus.
All requests for new standards or modifications of existing standards and requests for interpretation are posted on
the NAESB home page. All work papers and recommendations from subcommittees and task forces regarding the
requests are also posted on the NAESB home page (www.naesb.org). Participation in the task forces and

and Verification of the Energy Efficiency Products. As such, references to the status of all standards included in this
report are made as to whether they have been provided to the Commission as a part of other reports or if they are
subject of Commision action.
Five standards included in the report were developed in response to FERC Order No. 890 including the
previously filed standards to support SAMTS,13 part two of the standards modifications to the WEQ-001-9.7
Business Practice Standard requested in FERC Order No. 890-A14 related to rollover rights to requests for redirect
on a firm basis, the WEQ-001-10.3.1.1 and WEQ-001-9.1.3.1 Business Practice standards which provide for
transmission providers to process redirect requests in a manner in which the request would receive a credit for the
available transfer capability encumbered by the parent reservation, standards to support Network Integration
Transmission Service on the Open Access Same-Time Information System (OASIS) and standards modifications to
support consistency across the NAESB OASIS standards.
In addition to the OASIS standards modified or developed in response FERC Order No. 890, three
additional standards modification efforts were undertaken by the OASIS Subcommittee that have an impact on the
OASIS standards. Modifications to the WEQ-013-2.6.81 and WEQ-013-2.6.82 Business Practice Standards were
made to clarify the listing of service types, modifications to the WEQ-001-14.1.3 and WEQ-001-15.1.2 Business
Practice Standards regarding the timing of posting of narratives, and modifications to several of the WEQ-001,
WEQ-002 and WEQ-003 Business Practice Standards in response to FERC Order No. 717 concerning standards of
conduct posting requirements.
A development effort to modify the Coordinate Interchange (WEQ-004) standards by the Joint Electric
Scheduling Subcommittee (JESS), a standing joint subcommittee made of both NERC and NAESB participants
tasked with the maintenance of the coordinate interchange business practice standards and reliability standards, was
undertaken to modify the WEQ-001, WEQ-003, WEQ-004 and WEQ-013 Business Practice Standards in
coordination with revisions made to the Electronic Tagging Functional Specification.15 Additional modifications
were made to the WEQ-004 standards to support the development of the Abbreviations, Acronyms and Definition of
Terms standards (WEQ-000) and to provide consistency across all WEQ standards.
Similar modifications to support the consistency of the WEQ standards were made to the Gas/Electric
Coordination standards in addition to modifications to the harmonize cross quadrant terms and definitions contained
within the standard. These changes were also coordinated with terms contained in the NERC Glossary.
Also included in the WEQ Version 003 publication and referenced in this report, are the standards
developed to support Smart Grid applications and the measurement and verification of Demand Response (DR) and

Energy Efficiency (EE) products. These standards were the subject of a previous NAESB report or are the subject
of Commission action.16
Finally, included in this report is an interpretation of the WEQ-001-9.1 and WEQ-001-10.1 Business
Practice Standards and the results of a quadrant wide effort to provide a common location for all abbreviations,
acronyms and definitions of terms that created the WEQ-000 Business Practice Standards and addressed both
internal inconsistences and inconsistences with the NERC Glossary.
As with most NAESB standards development of this magnitude, some of the standards development
activity undertaken that produced Version 003 had considerable industry debate before an agreement was reached on
the level of standardization needed and the actual text of the standards themselves. The NAESB process supports a
wide range of perspectives, and through a public process permitting all segments of the marketplace to voice equally

The summary is organized into ten sections: FERC Order No. 890 related standards, OASIS standards not
related to FERC Order No. 890, FERC Order No. 717 related standards, Coordinate Interchange standards,
Gas/Electric Coordination standards, Smart Grid related standards, Demand Side Management and Energy
Efficiency standards, standards related to Terms, Definitions and Acronyms, Interpretations, and items identified for
NAESB standards development for which NAESB has decided no standards development is necessary.
Descriptions of each grouping are shown below:
FERC Order No. 890 Related Standards
Standards subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
NAESB is submitting one FERC Order No. 890 related standard that has been the subject of a previous
report submitted to the Commission or the subject of action by the Commission. It is described below.
In response to paragraph 1377 of FERC Order No. 890 requesting “transmission providers work through
NAESB to develop business practice standards related to the coordination of requests across multiple transmission
systems,”17 the OASIS Subcommittee developed and the NAESB WEQ adopted standards that provide a process by
which a customer may complete a cross-regional transaction. The Service Across Multiple Transmission System
(SAMTS) standards were previously filed with the Commission on October 7, 2011 and are included in the Version
003 publication. 18 The standards require that each affected provider independently evaluate its portion of the linked
request with the opportunity for reconciliation by the customer once all evaluations are complete. After submitting
and monitoring requests on multiple systems, the customer can communicate reconciled information to each of the
affected providers. The SAMTS standards focus exclusively on the coordination of point-to-point transmission
service and/or network transmission service requests across multiple transmission systems. The SAMTS process
modifies and adds standards or terms to the Abbreviations, Acronyms and Definition of Terms (WEQ-000), the

An Executive Committee Task Force was created for the purpose of establishing the scope of the SAMTS
standards effort and met nine times from March 2010 to June 2010. The scope, as defined by the task force, was
approved by the WEQ EC on August 17, 2010 and amended on February 1, 2011. After receiving guidance from
the WEQ EC Task Force, the standards were developed through fourteen OASIS Subcommittee meetings held from
January 2011 to June 2011. The recommended standards were approved by the OASIS Subcommittee on May 5,
2011. The recommendation was sent out for a thirty-day industry comment period on May 11, 2011 and ended on
June 10, 2011. A substantive and technical review of the proposed standards by the WEQ EC was held on May 20,
2011 to help provide guidance for industry participants submitting comments. The WEQ EC met to consider the
recommendation and the comments received on June 30, 2011. The vote on the recommended standards was
inconclusive, so a notational ballot was sent out to the WEQ EC members that were not present to vote at the
meeting. Through notational ballots due on July 8, 2011, the EC approved the recommendation and the standards
were ratified by the WEQ membership on August 11, 2011.

Standards not subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes four sets of standards related to FERC
Order No. 890 that have not been the subject of a previous report submitted to the Commission by NAESB or the
subject of action by the Commission. The sets of standards are described below.
1) The first set of standards embodies the second part of a two-part process to address revisions to the WEQ001-9.7 Business Practice Standard.19 In paragraph no. 52 of FERC Order No. 676, the Commission
declined to adopt the WEQ-001-9.7 Business Practice Standard, filed as part of the WEQ Version 000
publication, concluding the standard was “inconsistent with the pro forma OATT and the Commission’s
policies” on the treatment of rollover rights for requests to redirect on a firm basis and allowed the WEQ to
reconsider and adopt a revised version of the standard. 20 The Commission provided guidance to NAESB
regarding the Commission’s policy on rollover rights in FERC Order Nos. 676,21 676-A,22 89023 and 890A.24 In addition to the guidance provided through the FERC orders, a written clarification was provided to
NAESB by Commission staff regarding rollover rights under the pro forma OATT.25 Using this guidance,

Report of the North American Energy Standards Board
Version 003 of the NAESB Wholesale Electric Quadrant Business Practice Standards
September 18, 2012
the OASIS Subcommittee modified the WEQ-001-9.7 Business Practice Standard in an effort to align
NAESB business practice standards with the FERC policy pertaining to the grant of rollover rights to
requests for redirect on a firm basis. Additionally, the subcommittee added examples for the conveyance of
rollover rights with a redirect on a firm basis to Appendix B of the WEQ-001 standards, modified the
WEQ-001-9 Business Practice Standards, modified the definition of Unexercised Rollover Rights and
added a definition for Capacity Eligible for Rollover. Corresponding modifications were also made to the
WEQ-001, WEQ-002 and WEQ-013 Business Practice Standards. These modifications complete a twopart process to address the WEQ-001-9.7 Business Practice Standard as described in the report that
provided the WEQ Version 002.1 publication of standards.26 The OASIS Subcommittee met five times
over the course of ten days to develop a recommendation. The recommendation passed a subcommittee
vote on April 9, 2009 and was sent out for a thirty-day comment period on April 13, 2009. The WEQ EC
adopted the recommendation on June 8, 2009, and the recommendation was ratified on July 27, 2009.
2) Second, on February 21, 2012, the WEQ EC approved the addition of the WEQ-001-10.3.1.1 and WEQ001-9.1.3.1 Business Practice Standards to provide functionality in the standards for transmission providers
to process redirect requests in a manner in which the request would receive a credit for the available
transfer capability encumbered by the parent reservation to the extent that available transfer capability was
needed to enable service to the redirect request. The OASIS Subcommittee crafted the modifications to
avoid an implementation that could result in a violation of the first come, first served principle of queue
priority. The subcommittee drafted and voted out the recommendation on January 25-26, 2012. The
recommendation was adopted by the WEQ EC Committee on February 21, 2012, and was ratified by
membership on March 26, 2012.
3) Next, in response to FERC Order Nos. 89027, 890-A28, 890-B29 and 890-C30, the WEQ EC adopted business
practice standards to support the OASIS functionality associated with NITS on May 1, 2012. In paragraph
no. 385 of FERC Order No. 890, the Commission ordered “public utilities, working through NAESB, to
develop appropriate templates for OASIS” in order to use the system to “request designation of new
network resources and to terminate designation of network resources.”31 Paragraph no. 1477 of FERC
Order No. 890 directed “transmission providers to work in conjunction with NAESB to develop business
practice standards describing procedural requirements for submitting designations over any new OASIS
functionality.”32 In response to FERC Order No. 890 and subsequent FERC Orders, the WEQ OASIS
Subcommittee began the effort in February 2007 to develop new standards and templates that support
applications for network service on the OASIS system. The standards provide functionality for:



transmission providers to handle requests (loads, designation network resource, non-designated
resources) on a customer-by-customer basis,



the optionality of tracking designated network resource scheduling rights, and



the customers to assign agents to administer OASIS transactions on their behalf.

The recommendation proposed new standards and modifications to standards that affect the WEQ-000,
WEQ-001, WEQ-002 and WEQ-003 Business Practice Standards. In addition, narrative examples and
process diagrams were added to the WEQ-013 Business Practice Standards to assist users in their
implementation efforts.
To develop the recommendation, the OASIS Subcommittee met ninety-seven times over one-hundred and
sixty-eight days over the course of five years. The recommendation passed a subcommittee vote on
December 1, 2011 and was sent out for an extended seventy-five day industry comment period on
December 13, 2011. Given the magnitude of the number of standards developed or modified as part of the
recommendation and the impact NITS has on the OASIS standards, a single topic review session was held
on January 24, 2012 by the WEQ EC to facilitate discussion between the subject matter experts and
industry participants developing comments regarding the recommendation. In response to the large number
of comments received on the recommendation, a series of OASIS Subcommittee meetings were held to
allow the subcommittee to review and respond to the comments in preparation for WEQ EC consideration.
The recommendation was adopted during a two-day WEQ EC meeting held on April 30, 2012 and May 1,
2012 and ratified by the membership on June 11, 2012.
4) Finally, while working on efforts to satisfy FERC directives related to FERC Order No. 890, the WEQ
OASIS Subcommittee developed a recommendation proposing modifications to the introduction sections
and adding applicability sections to the OASIS standards where necessary for consistency. The
introduction section of the standards provides a brief description of the purpose of the standard, while the
applicability section provides the entities that are impacted by the standard. In addition, the
recommendation proposed modifications to the organization and the structure of WEQ-001 and WEQ-013
for consistency. The OASIS Subcommittee met twice over five days to address this item. The
recommendation developed by the subcommittee passed a subcommittee vote on August 4, 2011 and was
sent out for a thirty-day industry comment period on August 9, 2011. The WEQ EC adopted the
recommendation on October 25, 2011 and was ratified by the membership on November 28, 2011.

OASIS Standards not Related to FERC Order No. 890
Standards not subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes three sets of OASIS standards not
related to FERC Order No. 890 that have not been the subject of a previous report submitted to the Commission or
the subject of action by the Commission. They are described below.

Page 7

Report of the North American Energy Standards Board
Version 003 of the NAESB Wholesale Electric Quadrant Business Practice Standards
September 18, 2012
1) First, the OASIS Subcommittee proposed modifications to the WEQ-013-2.6.8.1 and WEQ-013-2.6.8.2
standards. The minor modifications clarify that the listings of service types within the parentheticals are
intended to be examples and not definitive. The OASIS Subcommittee met twice over three days to
address the issue. The recommendation developed by the subcommittee passed a subcommittee vote on
February 9, 2012 and was sent out for a thirty-day industry comment period on February 21, 2012. The
recommendation was adopted by the WEQ EC on May 1, 2012 and was ratified on June 11, 2012.
2) Second, on October 25, 2011, the WEQ EC modified its business practice standards in response to FERC
Order Nos. 890 and 676-E. In paragraph no. 221 of FERC Order No. 890, the Commission specifically
requested that NAESB seek to develop business practice standards governing the terms and conditions of
conditional firm service and the posting requirement for available transfer capability.33 In paragraph no. 38
of FERC Order No. 676-E, the Commission adopted the WEQ-001-14 standards for Zero ATC Narrative
and theWEQ-001-15 standards for ATC Change Narrative, with the exception of the WEQ-001-14.1.3
standard and the WEQ-001-15.1.2 standard.34 The Commission declined to adopt the standards, stating in
paragraph no. 39 of FERC Order No. 676-E “[t]ransmission providers must post their narratives as soon as
feasibly possible. Posting within one day would appear in most cases to be reasonable.”35 In response, the
OASIS Subcommittee modified the business practice standards to comply with FERC direction by
recommending that narratives be posted within one business day and requiring a posting within five
business days. The recommendation was developed by the subcommittee over the course of two meetings,
spanning five days and passed a subcommittee vote on August 2, 2011. The recommendation was sent out
for a thirty-day industry comment period on August 9, 2011 and the WEQ EC adopted the recommendation
during the October 25, 2011 meeting. The recommendation was ratified on November 28, 2011.
3) In FERC Order No. 717 issued on October 16, 2008, the Commission made several modifications related to
the posting requirements associated with the standards of conduct.36 Specifically, the Commission
discontinued the requirement for public utilities to post standards of conduct information on OASIS.37 In
response, the Business Practice Subcommittee modified the WEQ-001, WEQ-002 and WEQ-003 Business
Practice Standards to remove reference to the standards of conduct related obligations with the exception of
a few template structures that may be implemented at the option of the transmission provider. To develop
the recommendation, the subcommittee held two meetings on February 9, 2009 and March 9, 2009 and
voted the recommendation out of subcommittee on March 23, 2009. On May 12, 2009 the WEQ EC
considered the recommendation and voted to adopt the modifications. The modifications were ratified by
the NAESB membership on June 15, 2009.

Coordinate Interchange Standards
Standards not subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes one Coordinate Interchange related
standard that has not been the subject of a previous report submitted to the Commission or the subject of action by
the Commission. It is described below.
On October 27, 2009, the WEQ EC adopted modifications to the WEQ-001, WEQ-003, WEQ-004 and
WEQ-0013 Business Practice Standards. The modifications proposed by the Joint Electric Scheduling
Subcommittee (JESS) to the WEQ-004 Business Practice Standards were completed to ensure that the
standards are consistent with revisions made to the Electronic Tagging Functional Specification38 during
the update from Version 1.8 to Version 1.8.1 and incorporated a guideline for rounding schedules with
partial megawatt hours. The guideline standardizes the rounding of partial megawatt hours schedules. The
JESS also made conforming modifications to the WEQ-001, WEQ-003 and WEQ-013 Business Practice
Standards and removed the definitions from the WEQ-004 Business Practice Standards as part of an effort
to relocate all definitions the WEQ-000 Business Practice Standards. To develop the recommendation, the
JESS met five times over the course of nine days and voted the recommendation out of subcommittee on
September 2, 2009. It was distributed for a thirty-day comment period on September 9, 2009. The
recommendation was adopted by the WEQ EC on October 27, 2009 and was ratified by the membership on
December 14, 2009.

Gas/Electric Coordination Standards
Standards not subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes one standard related to Gas/Electric
Coordination that has not been the subject of a previous report submitted to the Commission or the subject of action
by the Commission. It is described below.
In an effort to coordinate the WEQ-011 Business Practice Standard definitions with the NERC Glossary,
the terms Power Plant Operator and Power Plant Operator’s Facility were changed to Power Plant Gas
Coordinator and Power Plant Gas Coordinator’s Facility, respectively. This was done to eliminate
inconsistencies between other industry definitions for the term and to allow the retention of the electric
reliability connotation. Additionally, the BPS proposed modifications to the WEQ-011 Business Practice
Standards that included the addition of introduction and applicability sections, the development of a
definition for the term Transportation Service Provider and revisions to ensure the consistent application of
the terms Balancing Authority and Reliability Coordinator. The effort was coordinated with the Wholesale
Gas Quadrant BPS and EC to ensure consistency across the wholesale quadrants. The WEQ BPS met five
times to discuss the issue and held three joint meetings with the WGQ BPS on the topic. The
recommendation passed a joint WEQ BPS and WGQ BPS subcommittee vote on September 28, 2009 and
38

was sent out for a thirty-day industry comment period on October 2, 2009. The recommendation was
approved by the WEQ EC on June 11, 2010 via notational ballot, and ratified by the membership on July
15, 2010.

Smart Grid Standards
Standards subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes eight Smart Grid related standards that
have been the subject of a previous report submitted to the Commission or the subject of action by the Commission.
They are described below.
On July 7, 2011, NAESB submitted a set of Smart Grid related standards39 that were developed at the
request of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Smart Grid Interoperability
Panel (SGIP) as part of their national effort to fullfil NIST obligations under the Energy Independence and
Security Act of 2007 (“EISA”). 40 The standards developed by NAESB define use cases and data
requirements that respond to the priority action plans created by the SGIP to foster standards development
within standards setting organizations. Specifically, NAESB was asked to develop use case and data
requirement standards related to priority action plan 03 (Common Price Communication Model)41, priority
action plan 04 (Common Scheduling Mechanism)42 and priority action plan 09 (Standardized Demand
Response and Distributed Energy Resource Signals).43 The standards development effort was coordinated
with a number of external organizations and the standards served as a foundation for the development of
communication specifications created by the Organization of the Advancement of Structured Information
Standards in fulfillment of their obligations under the priority action plans. At the direction of the NAESB
Board of Directors, the NAESB WEQ and Retail Electric Quadrant (REQ) Executive Committees formed
the joint WEQ and REQ Smart Grid Standards Development Subcommittees to address the standards
assignment. The subcommittee developed the standards for both the retail and wholesale markets through a
two phase approach by expediently developing an intial set of use cases and data requirements for use by
the Organization of the Advancement of Structured Information Standards and then refining the use cases
and data requirements in a second phase. This approach was taken to ensure that both organizations
satsified the timeline requirements dictated by NIST and the SGIP through the priority action plans. The
standards development activity took place from September 2009 to October 2010 and resulted in seven sets
of standards. The phase one standards were ratified by the NAESB membership on August 20, 2010, and
the phase two standards were ratified on March 21, 2011.

Version 003 of the NAESB Wholesale Electric Quadrant Business Practice Standards
September 18, 2012
In addition to the assignments given to NAESB through NIST and SGIP priority action plans 03, 04 and
09, NAESB was asked to develop an information model for the communication of consumer energy usage.
This request was made through priority action plan 10 and was officially given to NAESB in May 2010
with a December 2010 deadline. In response, the joint REQ and WEQ Smart Grid Standards
Subcommittee on Priority Action Plan 10 was created and held its first meeting on June 22, 2010. Between
June 22, 2010 and August 31, 2010, when both the REQ and WEQ Energy Usage Information Model were
unanimously adopted, the subcommittee held a total of fifteen conference calls and a one week informal
comment period. The recommendations were reviewed by the WEQ and REQ Executive Committees on
October 15, 2010 and considered for vote on October 22, 2010. The REQ recommendation was adopted by
the Executive Committee during the October 22, 2010 meeting, and the WEQ recommendation was
adopted through notational ballot on October 29, 2010. Both recommendations were ratified by the
membership on November 29, 2010 and presented at the fall 2010 SGIP meeting the same week. The
energy usage information model serves as a “seed standard” and focuses on the representation of energy
usage information, which includes historic, present and future projected usage and load for specific time
periods. The standard defines a common data format of classes and attributes to communicate information
between utilities, third parties, and energy use customers, via customer devices and/or third-party energy
services providers and enables the exchange of detailed energy information in a consistent format for use
by all parties.

Demand Side Management and Energy Efficiency
Standards subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes two Demand Response and one
Energy Efficiency related sets of standards that have been the subject of a previous report submitted to the
Commission or the subject of action by the Commission. They are described below.
On April 17, 2009, NAESB submitted phase one of the WEQ-021 Measurement and Verification of
Wholesale Electricity Demand Response Business Practice Standards to the Commission.44 These
standards were ratified by the membership on March 16, 2009 and address the measurement and
verification of characteristics of demand response products and services administered for application in the
wholesale electricity market. They provide a framework for transparency, accountability and consistency.
Additionally, the standards address the four product/service categories (energy service, capacity service,
reserve service and regulation service) and establish criteria for the use of equipment, technology and
procedures to quantify the demand reduction value delivered. On September 17, 2009 the Commission
issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) on the standards and supported NAESB’s initiative for a
phase two effort to develop more technical standards that apply to the Independent System Operators and
Regional Transmission Organization (ISO-RTO). On April 15, 2010, the Commission adopted the phase

one standards through a final order and again supported the phase two effort by noting that additional
substantive standards that create transparency and consistency would benefit the wholesale market.45 The
phase two effort took place from April 16, 2009 to January 26, 2011 and resulted in additional granularity
to the business practice standards and definitions developed in the phase one effort, most notably in the
areas of meter data reporting deadline, advanced notification, telemetry interval, meter accuracy for afterthe- fact metering, meter data reporting interval and adjustment window. This effort was conducted with
the agreement of the Demand Side Management / Energy Efficiency Subcommittee that standards
development should not be undertaken in areas that would be duplicative of the ISO-RTO stakeholder
process unless otherwise directed by the Commission. The phase two standards were ratified by the
membership on March 21, 2011and are currently the subject of a NOPR issued by the Commission on
April 19, 2012.46
In addition to the phase two Measurement and Verification of Wholesale Electricity Demand Response
Business Practice Standards, the Measurement and Verification of the Energy Efficiency Products Business
Practice Standards were included in the April 19, 2012 NOPR.47 The WEQ-021 Energy Efficiency
Business Practice Standards create a standardized method for quantifying the energy reduction for energy
efficiency measures, lighting, appliances, industrial process improvements and building management. The
standards contain energy efficiency use criteria in wholesale markets, the general requirements for the
structure of a measurement and verification plan and detailed criteria for accepted measurement and
verfication methodologies. They were developed through working groups and tasks forces of the Demand
Side Management / Energy Efficiency Subcommittee between July 2009 and December 2010 and were
ratified by the membership on May 13, 2011.

Standards Related to Terms, Definitions and Acroynms
Standards not subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes two standards related to terms,
definitions and acroynms that have not been the subject of a previous report submitted to the Commission or the
subject of action by the Commission. They are described below.
First, as part of an ongoing NAESB effort to address inconsistencies, the WEQ SRS modified the definition
of Bulk Electric System to be consistent with the NERC approved definition for the term. The WEQ EC
adoption of the modified definition is in alignment with paragraph no. 40 of FERC Order 676 that directed
NERC to take the lead on defining reliability-related terms and suggested NAESB use NERC definitions

for such terms.48 To develop the recommendation, the SRS met twice over two days and on January 17,
2012 voted to send the recommendation out for a thirty-day formal comment period, which began on
January 18, 2012. The recommendation was adopted by the WEQ EC on February 21, 2012 and was
ratified by the membership on March 26, 2012.
Second, the chairs of the WEQ standards development subcommittees developed the WEQ-000 set of
standard definitions in an effort to provide a common location for all abbreviations, acronyms and
definitions of terms and modified existing NAESB definitions to address both internal inconsistences and
inconsistences with the NERC Glossary. The new standards were partially developed in response to
guidance provided by the Commission in FERC Order No. 676-C to ensure that NERC and NAESB
definitions are complementary.49 As a result of the effort, differences between the NAESB and NERC
definitions have been reconciled. To develop the WEQ-000 Business Practice Standards, the chairs of the
WEQ standards development subcommittees met numerous times beginning in October 2008 through
August 2009 when a draft recommendation was sent out for an informal comment period. Based on the
comments received, revisions were made to the draft recommendation, and the recommendation was sent
out for a thirty-day formal comment period on November 12, 2009. The recommendation was adopted by
WEQ EC on February 2, 2010, and was ratified by the membership on March 24, 2010.

Interpretations
Interpretation not subject of a previous report to the Commission or action by the Commission
In the WEQ Version 003 publication of standards, NAESB includes one interpretation that has not been the
subject of a previous report submitted to the Commission or the subject of action by the Commission. It is described
below.
The Version 003 publication includes an interpretation of standards WEQ-001-9.1 and WEQ-001-10.1.
The interpretation was developed by the WEQ Interpretations Subcommittee over the course of two
meetings held in December 2011 and February 2012 and clarifies that a redirect on a firm basis may be
submitted to modify only the source of a long term firm reservation. It was adopted by the WEQ Executive
Committee on February 21, 2012 and ratified by the membership on March 26, 2012.
Items Identified for NAESB Standards Development that the Organization has Decided Needed No Action
Since the publication of NAESB WEQ Version 002.1, several WEQ Annual Plan Items were deemed to
require no standards development action by NAESB as they have been addressed by other NAESB efforts, or
evaluated and determined that standards development was not necessary. When a subcommittee determines that no
action is to be taken on a particular item, that item is posted for a 30 day industry comment period. The EC reviews
any comments submitted and the item must pass a simple majority vote of the EC. Items for which no action is

Version Cross Reference:
The Version Cross Reference lists each NAESB standard number followed by four columns. The column
entitled "Adopted" identifies for which version the standard was adopted. The column entitled "Revised" identifies
versions where the standard was revised. The column entitled "Interpreted Version" identifies versions where the
standard was interpreted. The last column "Interpretation Number" identifies the interpretation number for the
version specified in the previous column. The language of the standards themselves can be accessed from the
NAESB home page (www.naesb.org). With the Version Cross Reference, a determination can be made of all
standards that were created, changed or interpreted for a given version.
For standards that were created in Version 003, the "Adopted" column will contain the value "003." For
standards that were modified in Version 003, the "Revised" column will contain the value "003." A standard may
have multiple revisions specified. For standards that were interpreted in Version 003, the " Interpreted Version "
column will contain the value "003" and the "Interpretation Number" column will contain the related interpretation
number. There were no interpretations processed for Versions 001 or for Version 002.1. A standard may have
multiple interpretations specified.
The versions noted in the version cross reference are:

Report of the North American Energy Standards Board - Enclosures
Version 003 of the NAESB Wholesale Electric Quadrant Business Practice Standards
Appendix E: NAESB Process to Develop and Adopt Standards
September 18, 2012

The NAESB Standards Development Process
NAESB is focused on proposing, considering, and adopting voluntary standards and model business practices
that will have a significant and lasting impact on all aspects of the natural gas and electricity marketplaces. As a
result of the standards NAESB adopts, it is expected that the industry will operate more efficiently and effectively,
benefiting both the industry and its customers. At the same time, it must be acknowledged that NAESB standards
may constitute a change in the way parties do business, with an accompanying effect on the use and allocation of
resources.
NAESB’s policy is to move at a deliberate pace, consistent with its annual plan(s), thus permitting those
affected by its standards, especially those standards adopted as regulations by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC) or other regulatory bodies, to assimilate them as part of their business practices. To this end,
NAESB will carefully consider whether proposed standards are both timely and necessary. In particular, it will try to
avoid adopting and implementing new standards, however beneficial, before the industry is able to reasonably make
use of them.
The standards development process is governed by the annual plan, and items can be included in the plan or
modified only with Board approval. The plan typically reflects requests from NAESB members, government
agencies, and other interested parties. In approving the annual plan, the Board considers the availability of resources,
including the NAESB budget and staff and the availability of industry volunteers. New requests received throughout
the year are either considered part of the existing annual plan or as new items that require Board approval.
The standards development process begins with an annual plan item or a triaged and approved request. Triage is
a process used by each quadrant of the Executive Committee (EC) to determine whether a request is within scope,
which quadrant(s) it applies to, which subcommittee(s) it should be referred to, and what priority it should be
assigned. Triage is carried out by EC members appointed by the EC chair. Triage recommendations are submitted to
the en banc EC and require EC approval, and may also require Board approval if there are scope questions or if a
modification of the annual plan is required.
Once the triage process is completed, the subcommittees—more than one are normally involved in standards
recommendations—review the request, compare it to existing standards, and prepare recommendations that may
take the form of new or modified standards or interpretations. Participation in EC subcommittees is open to any
interested party regardless of membership status. All subcommittee participants may vote; voting is balanced by
segment and quadrant. All votes are public.
When the recommendation is complete, it is made available for a thirty-day industry comment period. The
recommendation and comments are then forwarded to the EC, which considers the recommendation, makes any
changes it deems necessary, and takes a vote. A recommendation must receive an affirmative vote of at least 67
percent from each applicable quadrant EC and 40 percent from each of the segments of the applicable quadrant(s).
After passage by the EC, the recommendation must be ratified by the NAESB members. An affirmative vote of
67 percent of the members of the applicable quadrant(s) is required for ratification. After ratification, standards and
modifications are considered final actions and will be published in the next version of NAESB standards.
All NAESB quadrants follow the same development process described herein. The process has been followed
by the WGQ since 1994 and has been used to develop more than five hundred standards that have been incorporated
by reference into federal regulations.

Appendix E: NAESB Process to Develop and Adopt Standards
September 18, 2012

Flexibility
NAESB recognizes that flexibility is necessary as standards are developed to address regional concerns or to
incorporate variances to accommodate operational or structural differences. Several WEQ standards incorporate
regional or operational differences for both Version 0 and Version 1. There is a high threshold for incorporating
such variances in a standard; the subcommittee(s) in drafting the standard, the EC in approving the subcommittee
recommendation, and the membership in approving the standard must all agree that such variance is necessary.
Nonetheless, NAESB procedures are well suited to take into account operational and regional differences.
Transparency
All NAESB meetings are open for attendance and participation by any interested party, with the exception of
executive sessions of the Board or Managing Committee for purposes of discussing personnel, compensation or
legal issues. Meeting announcements and agendas are posted in advance to permit the widest possible participation.
Conference-calling capability is available for all meetings and web casting is available for most. Those intending to
attend a meeting in person or by telephone are asked to notify NAESB by a specific date to permit adequate meeting
planning.
Transcripts are made of all Board of Directors and EC meetings, and may also be made of other meetings that
are expected to be controversial. Transcripts are maintained in the NAESB office and are provided to regulatory
agencies for their internal use. All other interested parties can purchase transcripts from the relevant transcription
service.
Coordination with NERC
For business practice standards development for the WEQ, if it is determined by NERC and NAESB Executive
Management that joint development is needed by NERC and NAESB, the NERC-NAESB Coordination Joint
Development Process is implemented.1 This process requires that the appropriate NAESB Subcommittee and
NERC Standards drafting team work together to develop reliability standards and business practices. This process is
currently being implemented by the NAESB WEQ BPS and ESS/ITS with the NERC ATC Standards drafting team
to develop reliability standards and business practice standards to address Commission Order No. 890.
The Joint Interface Committee of NAESB, NERC and the ISO-RTO Council (“JIC”) was dissolved as part of
the agreement to create the Independent Grid Operator segment of the WEQ. The joint development process
between NAESB and NERC is being used to ensure appropriate coordination. The ISOs and RTOs have strong
decision-making roles in both NERC and NAESB, and thus with the use of the joint development process, the JIC
was no longer necessary.

1
The NERC-NAESB Coordination Joint Development Process was submitted to the Commission on February 17, 2006 in Attachment C of the
Progress Report on NAESB Activities impacting Docket No. RM05-5-000, “Standards for Business Practices and Communication Protocols for
Public Utilities”: http://www.naesb.org/doc_view2.asp?doc=ferc021706.pdf.

Business practice standards to set forth the procedure for input on TTC and
ATC methodologies and values. (During the Order 890 NERC and NAESB
joint standards development effort, it was determined that the standards
contained in MOD003 should be business practice standards instead of
reliability standards. NERC has requested that NAESB adopt the standards as
business practices via correspondence to Ms. McQuade, NAESB President.)
This item will require coordination with the NERC Order 890 reliability
standards development because the language to address this item is contained
within a draft standards that addresses items that are dependent on NERC
deliverables, i.e., the requirements to create an “ATC Information Link” on
OASIS. There is no Order 890 cite for this item.
Status: Completed
Published in Version 002, September 30, 2008 and forwarded to the FERC as

PROVISIONAL ITEMS
1

Develop and or modify business practices related to support of NERC effort on the NERC Resources and Transmission
Adequacy and Inadvertent Interchange Data Standards BAL-006 revisions.
Status: In review of the NERC development effort, Balancing Authority Controls (Project 2007-05), with Mr. Akens (TVA,
NERC Drafting Team Leader) and Mr. Rodriquez (NERC Manager, Business Practice Coordination), it was determined that
no changes would be required to NAESB standards. As such, NAESB leadership is not at this time determining if any
development would be undertaken, which would then initiate a joint development effort. A letter to this effect was sent to
NERC management. This assessment may however change as the NERC drafting team proceeds further in its development,
so the provisional item remains on the 2008 WEQ Annual Plan.

2

Develop business practice standards as requested by the regional and state advisory groups.

Synchronize Bidding Credit Requirements for FTR, TCC and CRR (R08025)
Posting of collateral is an important issue for financial marketers. Most financial
marketers and smaller entities are required to post cash for FTR transactions, while
most utilities post unsecured credit. Therefore, the timing for posting collateral is
especially crucial to financial marketers. There are two posting periods for FTRs:
1. The Bidding Requirement: Credit must be posted with FTR bids and these
monies are held until bids are cleared.
2. The Holding Requirement: After bids are cleared and FTRs awarded, collateral
is required for the amount of time the FTR is active.

Dates in the completion column are by end of the quarter for completion by the assigned committee. The dates do not
necessarily mean that the standards are fully staffed to be implementable by the industry, and/or ratified by membership. If one
item is completed earlier than planned, another item can begin earlier and possibly complete earlier than planned. There are no
begin dates on the plan.

9

The assignments are abbreviated. The abbreviations and committee structure can be found at the end of the annual plan
document.

10

The Electronic Scheduling Subcommittee and Information Technology Subcommittee (ESS/ITS) were merged together
through a decision made at the May 12, 2009 WEQ EC meeting. The new subcommittee is named Open Access Same Time
Information System Subcommittee (OASIS) and is now shown for assignments in this and future annual plans as OASIS.
Similarly the Joint Interchange Scheduling Working Group (JISWG) was renamed the Joint Electric Scheduling Subcommittee
and now reports to the WEQ EC. JESS is now shown for assignments in this and future annual plans rather than JISWG. The
changes took effect on August 1, 2009.

Paragraph 1377 of FERC Order No. 890, issued February 16, 2007: The Commission agrees that transmission requests across
multiple transmission systems should be coordinated by the relevant transmission providers. We will not, however, amend the
pro forma OATT to require such coordination. Rather, we require transmission providers working through NAESB to develop
business practice standards related to coordination of requests across multiple transmission systems. In order to provide guidance
to NAESB, we will articulate the principles that should govern processing across multiple systems. All the transmission
providers involved in a request across multiple systems should consider a request that requires studies across multiple systems to
be a single application for purposes of establishing the deadlines for rendering an agreement for service, revising queue status,
eliciting deposits and commencing service. In order to preserve the rights of other transmission customers with studies in the
queue, the priority for the single application should be based on the latest priority across the transmission providers involved in
the multiple system request. We note that regional entities like wesTTrans are already coordinating requests across multiple
transmission systems and we believe such coordination is an acceptable solution to this issue.

70 Paragraph 1390 of FERC Order No. 890, issued February 16, 2007: We will not modify the pro forma OATT to address
requests to allow the transmission provider to terminate idle transmission service requests. NAESB’s business practice 001-4.11
allows the transmission provider to retract a request if the transmission customer does not respond to an acceptance within the
time established in NAESB business practice standard 001-4.13. Therefore, we interpret TDU Systems comments to refer to
circumstances when a transmission customer fails to respond to the transmission provider’s request for additional information
during the course of a request study. As discussed above, by the time the transmission provider offers a system impact study
agreement, it should have all of the information that it needs to complete the study. Pursuant to section 17.4 of the pro forma
OATT, the transmission provider can deem a transmission service request deficient if the transmission customer does not provide
all of the information the transmission provider needs to evaluate the request for service. We will revise section 17.7 of the pro
forma OATT so that the transmission provider is able to terminate a request for transmission service if a transmission customer
that is extending the commencement of service does not pay the required annual reservation fee within 15 days of notifying the
transmission provider that it would like to extend the commencement of service. We will not change the pro forma OATT to
allow the transmission provider to terminate a transmission service request if the transmission customer changes its application
for service. We believe the existing pro forma OATT is sufficient to allow a transmission provider to manage situations where
the transmission customer modifies its application for service to the point that the customer is requesting transmission service that
is meaningfully different than its initial request.
71
Paragraph 1627 of FERC Order No. 890, issued February 16, 2007: We agree with suggestions for the posting of additional
curtailment information on OASIS and, therefore, require transmission providers, working through NAESB, to develop a detailed
template for the posting of additional information on OASIS regarding firm transmission curtailments. Transmission providers
need not implement this new OASIS functionality and any related business practices until NAESB develops appropriate
standards. These postings must include all circumstances and events contributing to the need for a firm service curtailment,
specific services and customers curtailed (including the transmission provider’s own retail loads), and the duration of the
curtailment. This information is in addition to the Commission’s existing requirements: (1) when any transmission is curtailed or
interrupted, the transmission provider must post notice of the curtailment or interruption on OASIS, and the transmission
provider must state on OASIS the reason why the transaction could not be continued or completed; (2) information to support any
such curtailment or interruption, including the operating status of facilities involved in the constraint or interruption, must be
maintained for three years and made available upon request to the curtailed or interrupted customer, the Commission’s Staff, and
any other person who requests it; and, (3) any offer to adjust the operation of the transmission provider’s system to restore a
curtailed or interrupted transaction must be posted and made available to all curtailed and interrupted transmission customers at
the same time.

In regards to Entergy’s question of whether the transmission provider’s calculated and posted available flowgate
capability values should be used to fulfill the posting requirements set forth in Standard 001-14 and 001-15 in instances where
there is no requirement to convert this calculation to available transfer capability values, we agree with Entergy that this
requirement can be met by the transmission provider posting its available flowgate capability values. As to EPSA’s argument
that Standard 001-15 falls short of the goals of Order No. 890, we find that, with the exception of Standard 001-15.1.2,
compliance with Standard 001-15 provides all of the information required by Order No. 890. However, Standards 001-14.1.3
and 001-15.1.2 permit transmission providers to post an available transfer capability change narrative within five business days
of meeting the criteria under which a narrative is required to be posted. In Order No. 890, the Commission rejected calls for
delays prior to posting data and required posting as soon as possible. We do not find the NAESB standard meets this criterion
and therefore decline to incorporate Standards 001-14.1.3 and 001-15.1.2 by reference. Transmission providers must post their
narratives as soon as feasibly possible. Posting within one day would appear in most cases to be reasonable.

However, we reiterate here the Commission’s finding in Order No. 890 that a transmission provider is permitted to
extend its right to reassess the availability of conditional firm service. Since the Version 002.1 Standards do not specifically
address this issue, we would ask the industry, working through NAESB, to continue to look at additional business practice
standards facilitating a transmission provider’s extension of its right to perform a reassessment
74 105. We agree that insufficient progress has been made on this issue. While we acknowledge that development of standards
addressing this issue is included in NAESB’s 2009 WEQ Annual Plan, we nevertheless urge NAESB to address this issue as
soon as possible. Accordingly, we request that NAESB provide the Commission with a status report concerning its progress on
this issue every six months, counting from the date this final rule is published in the Federal Register, until NAESB’s adoption of
the applicable standard(s).

PROVISIONAL ITEMS
1

Develop and or modify business practices related to support of NERC effort on the NERC Resources and Transmission
Adequacy (Project 2009-05 Resource Adequacy Assessment).

2

Develop business practices for allocating capacity among requests received during a submittal window Order 890-A
(Docket Nos. RM05-17-001, 002 and RM05-25-001, 002 - Paragraph 805).75

3

Determine any needed NAESB action in support of the Interchange Distribution Calculator (IDC) and develop any
necessary standards.

4

Prepare recommendations for future path for TLR (equity concerns) in concert with NERC, which may include
alternative congestion management procedures15. Work on this activity is dependent on completing 2010 WEQ Annual
Plan 1.a (Parallel Flow Visualization/Mitigation for Reliability Coordinators in the Eastern Interconnection).

5

Develop complementary standards that align with NERC Project 2008-01 Voltage and Reactive Control, for which a
white paper is expected after the SAR is authorized to proceed by the NERC Standards Committee.

6

Provisional Item No. 6 was added to the 2010 Annual Plan as Item No. 1(d)

7

Determine NAESB action needed to support FERC Action Plan for Smart Grid Technology.

8

Develop business practice standards for cap and trade programs for green house gas

9

Conduct assessment to determine if Electric Industry Requirements documented in WEQ-011 Gas / Electric
Coordination should be considered reliability requirements and transition to NERC.

10

Develop needed business practice standards for organization/company codes for NAESB standards – and address
current issues on the use of DUNs numbers. Common code usage is linked to the transition of the Registry from NERC
to NAESB.

11

Provisional Item No. 11 was determined to only affect the REQ, and as such was added to the 2010 Retail Annual Plan
as Item No. 3e.

12

Review the need for, and develop standards where appropriate, in response to issues raised by FERC’s National Action
Plan on Demand Response.

13

Coordinate standards development with the NERC Balancing Authority Reliability Based Controls Standards Drafting
Team (BARCSDT- created in July 2010) regarding Time Error and Inadvertent (BAL-004 and BAL-006), which may
require changes to NAESB WEQ standards. (Previously WEQ 2010 Annual Plan Item 1b).

14

Coordinate standards development with the NERC Balancing Authority Reliability Based Controls Standards Drafting
Team (BARCSDT- created in July 2010) regarding DCS and AGC (BAL-002 and BAL-005) which may require
changes to NAESB WEQ standards. (Previously WEQ 2010 Annual Plan Item 1c).

75

805. The Commission recognizes that developing methods to allocate capacity among requests received during a submittal
window may require detailed procedures, particularly when transmission requests received simultaneously exceed available
capacity. As the Commission explained in Order No. 890, however, we believe that each transmission provider is in the best
position to develop allocation procedures that are suitable for its system. This does not preclude transmission providers from
working through NAESB to develop standardized practices, as suggested by Southern. For example, as we pointed out in Order
No. 890, allocation methods such as that used by PJM to allocate monthly firm point-to-point transmission service could provide
useful guidance in developing general allocation procedures.

Dates in the completion column are by end of the quarter for completion by the assigned committee, sub-committee or task
force. The dates do not necessarily mean that the standards are fully staffed to be implementable by the industry, and/or ratified
by membership. If one item is completed earlier than planned, another item can begin earlier and possibly complete earlier than
planned. There are no begin dates on the plan.
13

The assignments are abbreviated. The abbreviations and sub-committee structure can be found at the end of the annual plan
document.
14

Energy efficiency may be a wholesale product, such as capacity. Energy efficiency in retail markets may be from individual
energy efficiency measures at the project level or a portfolio of projects that make up an energy efficiency program.

Paragraph 1377 of FERC Order No. 890, issued February 16, 2007: The Commission agrees that transmission requests across
multiple transmission systems should be coordinated by the relevant transmission providers. We will not, however, amend the
pro forma OATT to require such coordination. Rather, we require transmission providers working through NAESB to develop
business practice standards related to coordination of requests across multiple transmission systems. In order to provide guidance
to NAESB, we will articulate the principles that should govern processing across multiple systems. All the transmission
providers involved in a request across multiple systems should consider a request that requires studies across multiple systems to
be a single application for purposes of establishing the deadlines for rendering an agreement for service, revising queue status,
eliciting deposits and commencing service. In order to preserve the rights of other transmission customers with studies in the
queue, the priority for the single application should be based on the latest priority across the transmission providers involved in
the multiple system request. We note that regional entities like wesTTrans are already coordinating requests across multiple
transmission systems and we believe such coordination is an acceptable solution to this issue.

Paragraph 1390 of FERC Order No. 890, issued February 16, 2007: We will not modify the pro forma OATT to address
requests to allow the transmission provider to terminate idle transmission service requests. NAESB’s business practice 001-4.11
allows the transmission provider to retract a request if the transmission customer does not respond to an acceptance within the
time established in NAESB business practice standard 001-4.13. Therefore, we interpret TDU Systems comments to refer to
circumstances when a transmission customer fails to respond to the transmission provider’s request for additional information
during the course of a request study. As discussed above, by the time the transmission provider offers a system impact study
agreement, it should have all of the information that it needs to complete the study. Pursuant to section 17.4 of the pro forma
OATT, the transmission provider can deem a transmission service request deficient if the transmission customer does not provide
all of the information the transmission provider needs to evaluate the request for service. We will revise section 17.7 of the pro
forma OATT so that the transmission provider is able to terminate a request for transmission service if a transmission customer
that is extending the commencement of service does not pay the required annual reservation fee within 15 days of notifying the
transmission provider that it would like to extend the commencement of service. We will not change the pro forma OATT to
allow the transmission provider to terminate a transmission service request if the transmission customer changes its application
for service. We believe the existing pro forma OATT is sufficient to allow a transmission provider to manage situations where
the transmission customer modifies its application for service to the point that the customer is requesting transmission service that
is meaningfully different than its initial request.
81
Paragraph 1627 of FERC Order No. 890, issued February 16, 2007: We agree with suggestions for the posting of additional
curtailment information on OASIS and, therefore, require transmission providers, working through NAESB, to develop a detailed
template for the posting of additional information on OASIS regarding firm transmission curtailments. Transmission providers
need not implement this new OASIS functionality and any related business practices until NAESB develops appropriate
standards. These postings must include all circumstances and events contributing to the need for a firm service curtailment,
specific services and customers curtailed (including the transmission provider’s own retail loads), and the duration of the
curtailment. This information is in addition to the Commission’s existing requirements: (1) when any transmission is curtailed or
interrupted, the transmission provider must post notice of the curtailment or interruption on OASIS, and the transmission
provider must state on OASIS the reason why the transaction could not be continued or completed; (2) information to support any
such curtailment or interruption, including the operating status of facilities involved in the constraint or interruption, must be
maintained for three years and made available upon request to the curtailed or interrupted customer, the Commission’s Staff, and
any other person who requests it; and, (3) any offer to adjust the operation of the transmission provider’s system to restore a
curtailed or interrupted transaction must be posted and made available to all curtailed and interrupted transmission customers at
the same time.

39.
In regards to Entergy’s question of whether the transmission provider’s calculated and posted available flowgate
capability values should be used to fulfill the posting requirements set forth in Standard 001-14 and 001-15 in instances where
there is no requirement to convert this calculation to available transfer capability values, we agree with Entergy that this
requirement can be met by the transmission provider posting its available flowgate capability values. As to EPSA’s argument
that Standard 001-15 falls short of the goals of Order No. 890, we find that, with the exception of Standard 001-15.1.2,
compliance with Standard 001-15 provides all of the information required by Order No. 890. However, Standards 001-14.1.3
and 001-15.1.2 permit transmission providers to post an available transfer capability change narrative within five business days
of meeting the criteria under which a narrative is required to be posted. In Order No. 890, the Commission rejected calls for
delays prior to posting data and required posting as soon as possible. We do not find the NAESB standard meets this criterion
and therefore decline to incorporate Standards 001-14.1.3 and 001-15.1.2 by reference. Transmission providers must post their
narratives as soon as feasibly possible. Posting within one day would appear in most cases to be reasonable.
83
72.
However, we reiterate here the Commission’s finding in Order No. 890 that a transmission provider is permitted to
extend its right to reassess the availability of conditional firm service. Since the Version 002.1 Standards do not specifically
address this issue, we would ask the industry, working through NAESB, to continue to look at additional business practice
standards facilitating a transmission provider’s extension of its right to perform a reassessment
84 105. We agree that insufficient progress has been made on this issue. While we acknowledge that development of standards
addressing this issue is included in NAESB’s 2009 WEQ Annual Plan, we nevertheless urge NAESB to address this issue as
soon as possible. Accordingly, we request that NAESB provide the Commission with a status report concerning its progress on
this issue every six months, counting from the date this final rule is published in the Federal Register, until NAESB’s adoption of
the applicable standard(s).

2.

Develop business practices for allocating capacity among requests received during a submittal window Order 890-A
(Docket Nos. RM05-17-001, 002 and RM05-25-001, 002 - Paragraph 805)85.

3.

Determine any needed NAESB action in support of the Interchange Distribution Calculator (IDC) and develop any
necessary standards.

4.

Prepare recommendations for future path for TLR86 (Phase 2) in concert with NERC, which may include alternative
congestion management procedures19. Work on this activity is dependent on completing 2010 WEQ Annual Plan 1.a
(Parallel Flow Visualization/Mitigation for Reliability Coordinators in the Eastern Interconnection - Phase 1).

5.

Develop complementary standards that align with NERC Project 2008-01 Voltage and Reactive Control, for which a
white paper is expected after the SAR is authorized to proceed by the NERC Standards Committee.

6.

Determine NAESB action needed to support FERC Action Plan for Smart Grid Technology.

7.

Develop business practice standards for cap and trade programs for greenhouse gas

8.

Conduct assessment to determine if Electric Industry Requirements documented in WEQ-011 Gas / Electric
Coordination should be considered reliability requirements and transition to NERC.

9.

Develop needed business practice standards for organization/company codes for NAESB standards – and address
current issues on the use of DUNs numbers. Common code usage is linked to the transition of the Registry from NERC
to NAESB.

10.

Review the need for, and develop standards where appropriate, in response to issues raised by FERC’s National Action
Plan on Demand Response.

11.

Develop, modify or delete business practices to support Time Error and Inadvertent (BAL-004 and BAL-006) resulting
from the NERC field test under NERC project (NERC Project 2010-14).

12.

Coordinate standards development with the NERC Balancing Authority Reliability Based Controls Standards Drafting
Team (BARCSDT- created in July 2010) regarding DCS and AGC (BAL-002 and BAL-005) which may require
changes to NAESB WEQ standards.

85 805. The Commission recognizes that developing methods to allocate capacity among requests received during a submittal
window may require detailed procedures, particularly when transmission requests received simultaneously exceed available
capacity. As the Commission explained in Order No. 890, however, we believe that each transmission provider is in the best
position to develop allocation procedures that are suitable for its system. This does not preclude transmission providers from
working through NAESB to develop standardized practices, as suggested by Southern. For example, as we pointed out in Order
No. 890, allocation methods such as that used by PJM to allocate monthly firm point-to-point transmission service could provide
useful guidance in developing general allocation procedures.
86 Phase 2 of the Parallel Flow Visualization looks at developing options for and reporting of the most cost
effective alternatives to achieve curtail obligations assigned during Phase 1.”

Paragraph 1627 of FERC Order No. 890, issued February 16, 2007: We agree with suggestions for the posting of additional
curtailment information on OASIS and, therefore, require transmission providers, working through NAESB, to develop a detailed
template for the posting of additional information on OASIS regarding firm transmission curtailments. Transmission providers
need not implement this new OASIS functionality and any related business practices until NAESB develops appropriate
standards. These postings must include all circumstances and events contributing to the need for a firm service curtailment,
specific services and customers curtailed (including the transmission provider’s own retail loads), and the duration of the
curtailment. This information is in addition to the Commission’s existing requirements: (1) when any transmission is curtailed or
interrupted, the transmission provider must post notice of the curtailment or interruption on OASIS, and the transmission
provider must state on OASIS the reason why the transaction could not be continued or completed; (2) information to support any
such curtailment or interruption, including the operating status of facilities involved in the constraint or interruption, must be
maintained for three years and made available upon request to the curtailed or interrupted customer, the Commission’s Staff, and
any other person who requests it; and, (3) any offer to adjust the operation of the transmission provider’s system to restore a
curtailed or interrupted transaction must be posted and made available to all curtailed and interrupted transmission customers at
the same time.

805. The Commission recognizes that developing methods to allocate capacity among requests received during a submittal
window may require detailed procedures, particularly when transmission requests received simultaneously exceed available
capacity. As the Commission explained in Order No. 890, however, we believe that each transmission provider is in the best
position to develop allocation procedures that are suitable for its system. This does not preclude transmission providers from
working through NAESB to develop standardized practices, as suggested by Southern. For example, as we pointed out in Order
No. 890, allocation methods such as that used by PJM to allocate monthly firm point-to-point transmission service could provide
useful guidance in developing general allocation procedures.

Procedures for Minor Corrections as excerpted from the NAESB Operating Procedures
D. Minor Clarifications and Corrections to Standards
Minor clarifications and corrections to existing standards include: (a) clarifications or corrections made by a regulatory agency to
standards that are of a jurisdictional nature, or by the American National Standards Institute or its successor; (b) clarifications or
corrections to the format, appearance, or descriptions of standards in standards documentation; (c) clarifications or corrections to
add code values to tables; and (d) clarifications and corrections that do not materially change a standard. Any request for a minor
clarification or correction to an existing standard should be submitted in writing to the executive director. This request shall
include a description of the minor clarification or correction and the reason the clarification or correction should be implemented.
1. Processing of Requests
The executive director shall promptly notify the EC and any appropriate subcommittee(s) of the receipt of the request. The
members of the applicable quadrant’s EC shall promptly determine whether the request meets the definition of a minor
clarification or correction. Through the decision of the vice chair of the applicable quadrant, this determination may be delegated
to one of the quadrant’s subcommittees, with the concurrence of the subcommittee chair, in which case the subcommittee shall
make a prompt decision.
If the request is determined to meet the definition of minor clarification or correction, the applicable quadrant’s EC, with input
from any subcommittee(s) to which the request has been forwarded, shall act on the request within one month of its receipt. A
meeting to discuss the request is not required; the decision may be made by notational vote. A simple majority of the votes
received shall determine the outcome. The members of the applicable quadrant’s EC shall be given at least three working days to
consider and vote on the request.
2. Public Notice
The results of the vote on the request for a minor clarification or correction shall be posted on the NAESB website and the
members of the applicable quadrant shall be notified of the request by e-mail. If the request has been approved by the applicable
quadrant’s EC, the notification shall include a brief description of the request, the contact name and number of the requester so
that further information can be obtained, and the proposed effective date of the clarification or correction. Any interested party
shall have an opportunity to comment on the request, and the comments shall be posted on the NAESB website. The comment
period is two weeks.
3. Final Disposition of Approved Requests
If no comments are received on an approved request, the standard shall be clarified or corrected as specified in the approved
request on the effective date proposed. If comments are received, they shall be forwarded to the members of the applicable
quadrant’s EC for consideration. Each comment requires a public written response from the applicable quadrant’s EC. The
applicable quadrant’s EC shall determine whether changes are necessary as a result of the comments. Members of the applicable
quadrant’s EC shall be given three working days to consider the comments and determine the outcome, which shall be decided by
a simple majority of the votes received. A meeting to discuss the request is not required; the decision may be made by notational
vote. The standard shall be clarified or corrected in accordance with the outcome of the vote, effective with the completion of
voting, and notice thereof shall be posted on the NAESB website. In the case of minor corrections which are discovered during
the editorial review process of publication of a new version and are categorized as clarifications under (b) or (c) above1, the
proposed effective date may be (i) two weeks from the date of public notice, following simple majority approval by the
applicable Quadrant(s) EC(s) of the shortened effective date, or (ii) one month from the date of the public notice. For all others,
the proposed effective date of the minor clarification or correction shall normally be one month from the date of the public notice
upon simple majority approval of the applicable Quadrant(s) EC(s).
