2The Commission is not proposing any new or 

modified text to its regulations. As provided in 18 

CFR part 40, proposed interpretation of a Reliability 

Standard will not become effective until approved 

by the Commission, and the ERO must post on its 

Web site each effective Reliability Standard.

Along with the Chairman, I believe 

that our entire rulemaking process 

should be as transparent as possible to 

the public. Consequently, after the 

Roundtable is complete, I strongly 

recommend that the Commission submit 

both a proposal on the order in which 

the Commission will consider final 

rulemakings and a proposed 

implementation plan to the Federal 

Register to allow the public to comment 

before we begin to consider final rules. 

Once we receive and review comments, 

a final rulemaking and implementation 

schedule should be published in the 

Federal Register. This level of 

transparency will give the market a clear 

picture of how the Commission intends 

to proceed, and how we can be held 

accountable as we undertake this 

massive regulatory overhaul. It will also 

provide the market with certainty 

market participants need to make the 

critical investment decisions necessary 

to be in compliance with the rules upon 

implementation. Finally, this type of 

transparency will help guide the 

Commission’s decision regarding when 

to make critical investments in 

advanced technology that are necessary 

for us to effectively oversee the futures, 

options, and swaps markets. 

The more thoughtful, deliberate, and 

transparent our sequencing and 

implementation processes are, the more 

orderly this Commission’s regulation of 

the swaps market will be.

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Issued 

April 21, 2011) 

1. Under section 215 of the Federal 

Power Act (FPA),1 the Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission (Commission) 

proposes to approve the North 

American Electric Reliability 

Corporation’s (NERC’s) proposed 

interpretation of Requirement R8 in 

Commission-approved NERC Reliability 

Standard TOP–001–1 — Reliability 

Responsibilities and Authorities.2 The 

Commission proposes to approve the 

interpretation as discussed below. 

I. Background 

2. Section 215 of the FPA requires a 

Commission-certified Electric 

Reliability Organization (ERO) to 

develop mandatory and enforceable 

Reliability Standards, which are subject 

to Commission review and approval. If 

approved, the Reliability Standards are 

enforced by the ERO, subject to 

Commission oversight, or by the 

Commission independently. 

3. Pursuant to section 215 of the FPA, 

the Commission established a process to 

select and certify an ERO 3 and, 

subsequently, certified NERC as the 

ERO.4 On March 16, 2007, the 

Commission issued Order No. 693, 

approving 83 of the 107 Reliability 

Standards filed by NERC, including 

Reliability Standard TOP–001–1.5

4. NERC’s Rules of Procedure provide 

that a person that is ‘‘directly and 

materially affected’’ by Bulk-Power 

System reliability may request an 

interpretation of a Reliability Standard.6

The ERO’s ‘‘standards process manager’’ 

will assemble a team with relevant 

expertise to address the requested 

interpretation and also form a ballot 

pool. NERC’s Rules provide that, within 

45 days, the team will draft an 

interpretation of the Reliability 

Standard, with subsequent balloting. If 

approved by ballot, the interpretation is 

appended to the Reliability Standard 

and filed with the applicable regulatory 

authority for regulatory approval. 

A. Reliability Standard TOP–001–1 

5. Reliability Standard TOP–001–1 

(Reliability Responsibilities and 

Authorities) centers on the 

responsibilities of balancing authorities 

and transmission operators during a 

system emergency. Specifically, the 

stated purpose of Reliability Standard 

TOP–001–1 is to ensure reliability 

entities have clear decision-making 

authority and capabilities to take 

appropriate actions or direct the actions 

of others to return the transmission
