Reliability Standards BAL-005-1 and FAC-001-3 and the retirement of Reliability Standard BAL-006-2 clarify, consolidate, streamline, and enhance the Reliability Standards addressing frequency control. These revisions streamline and clarify the current requirements related to the calculation of Reporting ACE (a key frequency control and reliability indicator factor) including consolidating the seventeen requirements of currently-effective BAL-005-0.2b, associated with FERC-725R, into seven requirements in BAL-005-1, relocation of certain requirements related to interconnection requirements for transmission owners and generation owners into FAC-001-3, associated with FERC-725D, relocation of Requirement R3 in currently-effective BAL-006-2 into BAL-005-1, and relocation of certain metrics and calculations required for calculating Reporting ACE into the NERC definition of Reporting ACE and its component definitions.
