FERC-725Y, in general. The information collection (data reported and retained) as required by Reliability Standard PER-005-2 is not submitted to FERC; rather it is retained for access by NERC, the Regional Entity, or FERC in their respective roles of monitoring and enforcing compliance with the NERC Reliability Standards. Reliability Standard PER-005 includes training requirements for local transmission control center operator personnel, operations support personnel who perform current day or next day outage coordination or assessments, or who determine SOLs or IROLs or operating nomograms in support of real-time operations; and certain generator dispatch personnel at centrally located dispatch centers.The purpose of PER-006-1 is to ensure that personnel are trained on specific topics essential to reliability to perform or support Real-time operations of the Bulk Electric System.

Name of Law: Federal Power Act (FPA)
The reporting requirements for the FERC-725Y information collection have been adjusted to add PER-003-2 carried over from 725A. Otherwise, the agencies adjustment to annual responses caused a slight increase due to normal industry cost increases within burden hours.
Background on PER-003:
When the original PER-003-0 was approved in Order No. 693 the associated manhours were part of the 83 NERC Reliability Standards approved at one time. In the two revisions done PER-003-1 and PER-003-2 it was determined at that there was no change in burden specific to PER-003. To increase clarity, manhours associated with the original PER-003-0 are being moved from the 725A collection and being added into the 725Y collection. The next update to 725A (2024) will reflect the change in burden associated with PER-003 and moving manhours from 725A into 725Y.
The burden hours increased due to the addition of record keeping and retention hours being adjusted to reflect more accurate data.
