On December 27, 2007, FERC issued Order No. 705 approving three NERC Reliability Standards concerning Facilities Design, Connections and Maintenance (“FAC”) and directing NERC to develop a modification to one of the three FAC Standards. The three FAC Standards, designated FAC-010-1, FAC-011-1 and FAC-014-1, require planning authorities and reliability coordinators to establish methodologies to determine system operating limits for the Bulk-Power System in the planning and operation horizons.
