SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–725HH, RF Reliability
Standards.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0301.
Type of Request: Three-year renewal
of FERC–725HH.
Abstract: This collection of
information pertains to the
Commission’s compliance with section
215 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) (16
U.S.C. 824o), which enables the
Commission to strengthen the reliability
of the ‘‘bulk-power system.’’ 1 The
Commission’s implementation of FPA
section 215 involves review and
approval of a system of mandatory
Reliability Standards that are
established and enforced by an ‘‘Electric
Reliability Organization’’ (ERO).2 The
1 FPA section 251(a)(1) defines ‘‘bulk-power
system’’ as follows: ‘‘(A) facilities and control
systems necessary for operating an interconnected
electric energy transmission network (or any
portion thereof); and (B) electric energy from
generation facilities needed to maintain
transmission system reliability. The term does not
include facilities used in the local distribution of
electric energy.’’
2 FPA section 215(a)(2) defines ‘‘Electric
Reliability Organization’’ as ‘‘the organization
certified by the Commission under subsection (c)
the purpose of which is to establish and enforce
reliability standards for the bulk-power system,
subject to Commission review.’’

coordination of the operating and
planning activities of its members as set
forth in the RF bylaws.
There is one regional Reliability
Standard in the RF region. The
Commission requests renewal of OMB

Commission has certified the North
American Electric Reliability
Corporation (NERC) as the ERO.3
Reliability Standards that the ERO
proposes to the Commission may
include Reliability Standards that are
proposed to the ERO by a Regional
Entity.4 A Regional Entity is an entity
that has been approved by the
Commission to enforce Reliability
Standards under delegated authority
from the ERO.5 On March 17, 2011, the
Commission approved a regional
Reliability Standard submitted by the

clearance for that regional Reliability
Standard, known as BAL–502–RF–03
(Planning Resource Adequacy Analysis,
Assessment and Documentation).
On December 7, 2020, the
