There are changes to the burden. This proposed rule would approve revised Reliability Standards that modify the existing requirements for system restoration from a blackstart. The approved Reliability Standards require some entities to commit agreements or understandings to writing and/or draft written procedures. Other entities may have to produce and maintain training materials. The net result is a program change of 47,472 hours. These standards are intended to ensure that a set of coordinated plans are in place and that facilities and personnel are prepared to engage in system restoration using designated Blackstart Resources. During the implementation of the system restoration plan activities, the responsible entities are required to focus on maintaining reliability while restoring the interconnection. These changes to the burden are deemed necessary in order to adequately ensure reliability when system restoration activities are necessary.
