SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Mandatory Reliability
Standards: Reliability Standard CIP–
014.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0274.
Type of Request: Three-year extension
of the FERC–725U information
collection requirements with no changes
to the reporting requirements.
Abstract: Reliability Standard CIP–
014–2 1 requires applicable transmission
owners and transmission operators to
identify and protect transmission
stations and transmission substations,
and their associated primary control
centers that if rendered inoperable or
damaged as a result of a physical attack
could result in instability, uncontrolled
separation, or cascading within an
Interconnection.
Transmission owners and
transmission operators must keep data
or evidence to show compliance with
the standard for three years unless
directed by its Compliance Enforcement
Authority. If a responsible entity is
found non-compliant, it must keep
information related to the noncompliance until mitigation is complete
and approved, or for the three years,
whichever is longer.
Type of Respondents: Transmission
owners (TO) and transmission operators
(TOP).
Estimate of Annual Burden: 2 The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden for the information
collection as:
1 Reliability Standard CIP–014–2 was
implemented by the letter Order in Docket No.
RD15–4–000 issued on 7/14/2015. Docket No.
RD15–4–000 was not submitted to OMB because it
did not implicate the Paperwork Reduction Act.
The revised standard became effective on 10/2/2015
and is now being included in the FERC–725U
information collection.
2 Burden is defined as the total time, effort, or
financial resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide
information to or for a Federal agency. For further
explanation of what is included in the information
collection burden, reference 5 Code of Federal
Regulations 1320.3.

3 For each Reliability Standard, the Measure
shows the acceptable evidence for the associated
Reporting Requirement (R numbers), and the
Compliance section details the related
Recordkeeping Requirement.
4 The estimates for cost per response are derived
using the following formula: Average Burden Hours
per Response * XX per Hour = Average Cost per
Response.
The hourly cost figures are based on data for
wages plus benefits from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics (as of 11/9/2016) at https://www.bls.gov/
oes/current/naics2_22.htm and http://www.bls.gov/
news.release/ecec.nr0.htm. The figures are rounded
for the purposes of calculations in this table and
are:
1. For electrical engineers (occupation code: 17–
2071), $64.29/hr., rounded to $64/hr.
2. For attorneys (occupation code: 23–0000),
$129.12/hr., rounded to $129/hr.
3. For administrative staff (occupation code: 43–
0000), $37.75/hr., rounded to $38/hr.
The record retention cost is based on the
administrative staff category; R3 is based on the
attorney category; Requirements R1, R4, R5 and R6
are based on the electrical engineer category; and
R2 is a mix of the electrical engineer and related
engineering review process (30 hrs. at $64/hr.) and
