Applicable Governmental Authority definition
Examples of Applicable Governmental Authority in a sentence
In this regard, we require that NERC identify in these notices each particular Applicable Governmental Authority to which it proposes to disclose this information and the specific procedures for protecting from public disclosure any non-public compliance information that would be transferred.
In addition, as in revised section 2.0, each international disclosure by NERC of compliance information pursuant to these revised provisions is on the condition that the information pertains to a Registered Entity or a portion of the Bulk-Power System over which the Applicable Governmental Authority that would receive the information has jurisdiction.
Revised section 5.1, for example, would provide that NERC may provide to the Commission a Notice of Alleged Violation issued to a Canadian entity only if the Applicable Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Canadian entity or the portion of the Bulk-Power System to which the notice pertains approved in advance the Commission’s receipt of the notice, subject to any limitations placed on the transfer by the applicable Canadian authority or other law of the Canadian jurisdiction.
We stress that the new notice procedures in section 3.4 cover only the international transfer of compliance-related information that NERC or a Regional Entity, through NERC, would disclose to an Applicable Governmental Authority.
We also agree that the reciprocal procedure NERC proposes to notify a Canadian or Mexican Applicable Governmental Authority that the Commission or its staff requests NERC to provide compliance-related information for an entity within that authority’s jurisdiction appropriately addresses how NERC’s disclosure of this information to the Commission would comply with the governmental authority’s regulations or other applicable law concerning disclosure of non-public compliance information.
