[Docket No. AD15-5-000]


Available Transfer Capability Standards for Wholesale Electric 
Transmission Services; Supplemental Notice of Workshop--New Date

    As discussed in prior notices, the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission (Commission) staff will hold a workshop to discuss standards 
for calculating Available Transfer Capability (ATC) for wholesale 
electric transmission services.\1\ In light of the inclement weather 
occurring on the originally proposed date, the workshop is rescheduled 
for Tuesday, April 21, 2015.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Prior Notices were issued on December 30, 2014, and January 
30 and February 27, 2015.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The workshop is prompted by the filing by the North American 
Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) proposing changes to its ATC-
related reliability standards,\2\ and the initiative to replace these 
standards with similarly focused business practice standards to be 
developed by the North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB).\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ NERC's proposal is currently pending before the Commission 
in the rulemaking: Modeling, Data, and Analysis Reliability 
Standards, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Docket No. RM14-7-000; 79 
FR 36269 (June 26, 2014). While this workshop is not convened for 
the purpose of discussing specific cases, the workshop may address 
matters that are at issue in the NERC proceeding.
    \3\ See, e.g., the December 18, 2014 status report filed by 
NAESB in Docket Nos. RM05-5-000 and RM14-7-000.

    The workshop will commence at 12:00 noon and conclude by 4:15 p.m., 
EST. The workshop will be held in the Commission Meeting Room at the
