California Independent System Operator (CAISO), Docket No. RC13-8, April 30, 2013
Reliability Standard: EOP-001-0b
Requirement: 6
Region: WECC
Issue: CAISO self-reported that it had not provided Pacific Gas and Electric Company’s updated 2011 Electric System Restoration Guideline to three TOPs in a timely fashion and as required by the Standard.
Finding: The violation was deemed to pose minimal risk to BPS reliability but not serious or substantial risk which was mitigated because CAISO had given the plan to the RC and neighboring BAs, but it had not given the plan to the three TOPs. Should any emergency had transpired the TOPs would have had to coordinate with the BA, which had the plan.
