In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is inviting public comments on the FERC-725S information collection regarding Emergency Preparedness and Operations Reliability Standards. This request is part of an effort to revise and improve existing cold weather reliability standards for generators and ensure the Bulk-Power System operates reliably during extreme cold weather events. The proposed changes involve modifications to the requirements for generator cold weather preparedness and corrective action plans. Public comments are due by January 21, 2025, and can be submitted electronically or by mail.
Simple Explanation
The government wants to make sure that power plants are ready for very cold weather, so they are asking for ideas on how to make new rules better. People can share their thoughts until January 21, 2025.
