SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  *Title:*
                     FERC-725A (Mandatory Reliability Standards for the Bulk-Power System). *OMB Control No.:*
                     1902-0244. *Type of Request:*
                     Three-year extension of the FERC-725A information collection requirements with no changes to the current reporting requirements. *Abstract:*
                     On August 8, 2005, the Electricity Modernization Act of 2005, which is title XII, subtitle A, of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005), was enacted into law.[1]
                    
                     EPAct 2005 added a new section 215 to the FPA, which requires a Commission-certified electric reliability organization (ERO) (FERC-725) to develop mandatory and enforceable Reliability Standards, which are subject to Commission review and approval. Once approved, the Reliability Standards may be enforced by the ERO, subject to Commission oversight or the Commission can independently enforce Reliability Standards (FERC-725A).[2] 
 
 On February 3, 2006, the Commission issued Order No. 672, implementing section 215 of the FPA.[3]
                    
                     Pursuant to Order No. 672, the Commission certified one organization, NERC, as the ERO.[4]
                    
                     The ERO is required to develop Reliability Standards, which are subject to Commission review and approval. The Reliability Standards will apply to users, owners, and operators of the Bulk-Power System, as set forth in each Reliability Standard. On March 16, 2007, the Commission issued Order No. 693, a Final Rule adding part 40, a new part, to the Commission's regulations. The Final Rule states that this part applies to all users, owners, and operators of the Bulk-Power System within the United States (other than Alaska or Hawaii). It also requires that each Reliability Standard identify the subset of users, owners, and operators to which that particular Reliability Standard applies. The new regulations also require that each Reliability Standard that is approved by the Commission will be maintained on the ERO's internet website for public inspection. In order for the Commission to perform its oversight function with regard to Reliability Standards that are proposed by the ERO, it is essential that the Commission receives timely information regarding all or potential violations of Reliability Standards. While section 215 of the FPA contemplates the filing of the record of an ERO or Regional Entity enforcement action, FERC needs information regarding violations and potential violations at or near the time of occurrence. Therefore, it will work with the ERO and regional reliability organizations to be able to use electronic filing of information, so the Commission receives timely information. The new regulations also require that each Reliability Standard that is approved by the Commission will be maintained on the ERO's internet website for public inspection. In accordance with section 39.5 of the Commission's regulations, the ERO must file each Reliability Standard or a modification to a Reliability Standard with the Commission. The filing is to include a concise statement of the basis and purpose of the proposed Reliability Standard, either a summary of the Reliability development proceedings conducted by the ERO or a summary of the Reliability Standard development proceedings conducted by a Regional Entity together with a summary of the Reliability Standard review proceedings of the ERO and a demonstration that the proposed Reliability Standard is “just, reasonable, not unduly discriminatory or preferential, and in the public interest. The existing burden inventory for the entire FERC-725A collection is estimated at 1,103,040 burden hours (table 1). FERC-725A contains the information collection requirements for nearly all of the US wide Reliability Standards. The collection started in 2007 when FERC approved 83 Reliability Standards with an estimated 1,252,680 burden hours. Since that time, NERC has revised many of the original standards (as well as proposed new standards) resulting in many incremental additions to the total burden hours. Additionally, over time FAC-003, FAC-008, PER-003; INT-006; INT-009; TOP-001, TOP-002, TOP-003, TOP-010 revisions were captured in 725A collection. In August 2024, the associated manhours and cost for PER-003-2 are being relocated from 725A into 725Y (table 2). This change will not result in change in the number of respondents in 725A as the same group of responsible entities have other obligation under 725A but the associated cost per entity will decrease slightly overall (table 3). In an effort to target similar NERC Reliability Standards by family in this 725A renewal, manhours associated with two FAC (Facilities) Reliability Standards (FAC-008-5 and FAC-003-2) will be retired from 725A and then added to the 725D, where other FAC standards are collected. This should facilitate future three-year renewal efforts and more accurate tracking of for the FAC Reliability Standards. In an effort to target similar NERC Reliability Standards by family in this 725A renewal, manhours associated with three PRC (Protection and Control) Reliability Standards (PRC-008-0, PRC-011-0, and PRC-017-1) will be retired from 725A Bulk-Power System and then added to the 725G, where other PRC standards are collected. This should facilitate future three-year renewal efforts and more accurate tracking of for the PRC Reliability Standards. PRC-008 (Underfrequency and Documentation of Underfrequency Load Shedding Equipment Maintenance Program) represents responsibility of TOs and GOs to create and follow their maintenance program to ensure that underfrequency relays operate when needed to drop system load to preserve the BES. PRC-011-0 (Undervoltage Load Shedding (UVLS) System Maintenance and Testing) identifies that TOs and DPs that own a UVLS system to create and follow their maintenance program to ensure that undervoltage relays operate when needed to drop system load to preserve volage collapse or voltage instability. Not every TO or DP has a UVLS program, staff is estimating that half of the registered TOs and DPs need to follow PRC-011-0. PRC-017-1 (Remedial Action Scheme (RAS) Maintenance and Testing) System Maintenance and Testing) identifies that TOs, DPs, GOs that their RASs are properly designed, meet expected performance, and are coordinated with other protection systems.[5]
                    
                     The maintenance and testing programs for RAS are reviewed by engineers and when a relay mis-operations occurs the RAS is reviewed and corrected. PRC-008-0 and PRC-011-0 have been in-service since April 2005 and PRC-017-1 was revised in November 2015.

                         This is a list of NERC registered entities who under 725A need to follow the NERC Standards. BA=Balancing Authority (98); DP = Distribution Provider (371); GP = Generator Owner (1,210); Generator Operator (1028); PA/PC Planning Authority/Planning Coordinator (62); RC=Reliability Coordinator (12); RP = Resource Planner (159); RSG = Reserve Sharing Group (8); FRSG = Frequency Response Sharing Group (1); TO = Transmission Owner (324); TOP = Transmission Operator (165); TP = Transmission Provided (203); TSP = Transmission Service Provider (70); for a sum total of (3,711). The same entity may have multiple registration obligation to follow under 725A, so an individual entity's obligation increases based on registration functions. These values were derived from the NERC Compliance data of April 16, 2024, using only unique United States registered entities. 8.

                         The estimated hourly cost (salary plus benefits) is a combination based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), as of 2024. The estimates for cost per response are loaded hourly wage figure (includes benefits) based on two occupational categories for 2023 found on the Bureau of Labor Statistics website (
