NERC’s and WECC’s Response Sample Clauses

NERC’s and WECC’s Response. 116. NERC and WECC state that because paragraph 1.4.1(b)(1) of WECC’s hearing procedures provides that “[d]ocuments subject to the attorney-client or attorney work- product privileges” are not subject to disclosure by compliance staff, no revision to paragraph 1.4.1(b) is required. NERC and WECC also propose to delete the phrase “not containing material exculpatory evidence” from paragraph 1.4.1(b)(2). In addition, NERC and WECC propose to revise paragraph 1.4.1(b)(3) to state that documents not subject to disclosure will include “[d]ocuments containing confidential information, to the extent that disclosure would violate any applicable confidentiality requirement.” 117. NERC and WECC also propose to revise Exhibit E to the WECC Delegation Agreement to provide that NERC will transmit to WECC and to the Western Interconnection Regional Advisory Body (WIRAB) the portions of assessments collected by WECC and remitted to NERC within three business days after WECC remits the collected assessments to NERC.57 NERC and WECC acknowledge that the timing by 55 Id. P 227. 56 Id. P 229. 57 These revisions are proposed by XXXX and WECC in their September 30, 2008 filing. See supra section I.C of this order. Docket No. RR06-1-016, et al. -39- which NERC transfers to WECC and WIRAB the assessments has been raised in two prior Commission orders; and that NERC and WECC failed to explain in the ensuing compliance filings and rehearing requests why this provision is necessary and justified.

NERC’s and WECC’s Response. 219. NERC and WECC state that the amended and restated WECC Delegation Agreement satisfies the requirements of the April 19 Order. With respect to the requirement that WECC’s compliance staff and reliability coordinator functions exhibit a sufficient degree of separation, the October 30 filing states that WECC discussed with NERC the possibility of NERC assuming an expanded role regarding WECC compliance monitoring and enforcement matters. XXXX explains that it does not currently have the resources with the necessary experience to assume this responsibility. WECC continues to discuss the issue with NERC and explore alternatives to address the Commission’s concern. 220. WECC asserts that, until additional measures can be put in place, WECC’s existing arrangements are adequate because, among other things: (i) NERC and the Commission receive notice of all allegations of Reliability Standard violations; (ii) NERC and the Commission may participate in WECC investigations; (iii) WECC’s oversight of its reliability coordinator functions is subject to NERC and Commission oversight; and (iv) any penalties resulting from WECC reliability coordinator violations will be forwarded to NERC.

Related to NERC’s and WECC’s Response

  • Timely and Sustained Response Interconnection Customer shall ensure that the Small Generating Facility’s real power response to sustained frequency deviations outside of the deadband setting is automatically provided and shall begin immediately after frequency deviates outside of the deadband, and to the extent the Small Generating Facility has operating capability in the direction needed to correct the frequency deviation. Interconnection Customer shall not block or otherwise inhibit the ability of the governor or equivalent controls to respond and shall ensure that the response is not inhibited, except under certain operational constraints including, but not limited to, ambient temperature limitations, physical energy limitations, outages of mechanical equipment, or regulatory requirements. The Small Generating Facility shall sustain the real power response at least until system frequency returns to a value within the deadband setting of the governor or equivalent controls. An Applicable Reliability Standard with equivalent or more stringent requirements shall supersede the above requirements.

  • Reactive Power and Primary Frequency Response 9.6.1 Power Factor Design Criteria

  • Government’s Response Please refer to the Q&A from the first question.

  • Emergency Response Partners must develop, maintain, and carry out a response plan for public water system emergencies, including disease outbreaks, spills, operational failures, and water system contamination. Partners must notify DWS in a timely manner of emergencies that may affect drinking water supplies.

  • Primary Frequency Response Developer shall ensure the primary frequency response capability of its Large Generating Facility by installing, maintaining, and operating a functioning governor or equivalent controls. The term “functioning governor or equivalent controls” as used herein shall mean the required hardware and/or software that provides frequency responsive real power control with the ability to sense changes in system frequency and autonomously adjust the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in accordance with the droop and deadband parameters and in the direction needed to correct frequency deviations. Developer is required to install a governor or equivalent controls with the capability of operating: (1) with a maximum 5 percent droop ± 0.036 Hz deadband; or (2) in accordance with the relevant droop, deadband, and timely and sustained response settings from an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for equivalent or more stringent parameters. The droop characteristic shall be: (1) based on the nameplate capacity of the Large Generating Facility, and shall be linear in the range of frequencies between 59 and 61 Hz that are outside of the deadband parameter; or (2) based on an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. The deadband parameter shall be: the range of frequencies above and below nominal (60 Hz) in which the governor or equivalent controls is not expected to adjust the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequency deviations. The deadband shall be implemented: (1) without a step to the droop curve, that is, once the frequency deviation exceeds the deadband parameter, the expected change in the Large Generating Facility’s real power output in response to frequency deviations shall start from zero and then increase (for under-frequency deviations) or decrease (for over-frequency deviations) linearly in proportion to the magnitude of the frequency deviation; or (2) in accordance with an approved Applicable Reliability Standard providing for an equivalent or more stringent parameter. Developer shall notify NYISO that the primary frequency response capability of the Large Generating Facility has been tested and confirmed during commissioning. Once Developer has synchronized the Large Generating Facility with the New York State Transmission System, Developer shall operate the Large Generating Facility consistent with the provisions specified in Articles 9.5.5.1 and 9.5.5.2 of this Agreement. The primary frequency response requirements contained herein shall apply to both synchronous and non-synchronous Large Generating Facilities.

  • Employee Response The employee upon whom a Notice of Proposed Action has been served shall have seven (7) calendar days to respond to the appointing authority either orally or in writing before the proposed action may be taken. Upon request of the employee and for good cause, the appointing authority may extend in writing the period to respond. If the employee's response is not filed within seven (7) days or during an extension, the right to respond is lost.

  • Workplace Violence Prevention and Crisis Response (applicable to any Party and any subcontractors and sub-grantees whose employees or other service providers deliver social or mental health services directly to individual recipients of such services): Party shall establish a written workplace violence prevention and crisis response policy meeting the requirements of Act 109 (2016), 33 VSA §8201(b), for the benefit of employees delivering direct social or mental health services. Party shall, in preparing its policy, consult with the guidelines promulgated by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration for Preventing Workplace Violence for Healthcare and Social Services Workers, as those guidelines may from time to time be amended. Party, through its violence protection and crisis response committee, shall evaluate the efficacy of its policy, and update the policy as appropriate, at least annually. The policy and any written evaluations thereof shall be provided to employees delivering direct social or mental health services. Party will ensure that any subcontractor and sub-grantee who hires employees (or contracts with service providers) who deliver social or mental health services directly to individual recipients of such services, complies with all requirements of this Section.

  • Drug and Alcohol Testing – Safety-Sensitive Functions A. Employees required to have a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) are subject to pre-employment, post-accident, random and reasonable suspicion testing in accordance with the U.S. Department of Transportation rules, Coast Guard Regulations (46 CFR Part 16) or the Federal Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991. The testing will be conducted in accordance with current Employer policy.

  • Firm Response The Department should make an award within sixty (60) days after the date of the opening, during which period responses shall remain firm and shall not be withdrawn. If award is not made within sixty (60) days, the response shall remain firm until either the Department awards the Contract or the Department receives from the bidder written notice that the response is withdrawn. Any response that expresses a shorter duration should, in the Department's sole discretion, be accepted or rejected.

  • Incident Reporting and Client Risk Prevention An incident report shall be created and maintained at the AGENCY for the following: in the event the AGENCY’S staff or subcontractor becomes aware of an occurrence of any incident of injury to a client receiving program services through the COUNTY, requiring medical treatment by a licensed physician; any lawsuit entered into or against the AGENCY, all allegations of any kind of abuse, neglect, or exploitation of the AGENCY’S clients with the exception of those AGENCIES whose primary function is working with those that have been abused, neglected or exploited unless the allegation is against an AGENCY staff member; media coverage relating to the media expressing an interest in a case or issue concerning a client of the AGENCY or an employee on the AGENCY premises, a fire, hostage situation, bomb threat, epidemic or any circumstance which may impact the service provision. All occurrences shall be verbally communicated directly to COUNTY staff no later than 10:00 a.m. the following business day via telephone to the COUNTY. All incident reports shall be made available to the COUNTY upon request and maintained at the AGENCY. These reporting requirements shall in no way supersede the requirements for notification of allegations of abuse/neglect/exploitations to the State of Florida Abuse Hotline, as mandated in Chapter(s) 39 and 415, Florida Statutes.
