Compliance with the NERC Reliability standards has entered a new and more demanding phase: as many organizations face their second full audit, the simple presence of a compliance system is no longer protection against receiving penalties from violations. Grid participants must be able to respond urgently to requests for documentation, demonstrate improvement on issues identified in informal audits, and deal with the sometimes confusing new Compliance Violation Investigation Process. And above all, it is now imperative that they be familiar with and implement the best practices that have been developed to deal with the most frequently encountered and pernicious types of violations.
Infocast’s FERC & NERC Reliability Compliance Summit will bring together today’s leading compliance managers and experts to provide your organization with the strategies and lessons learned from today’s audits and investigations. You’ll learn the most efficient and effective approaches to gathering and documenting evidence, demonstrating process improvement, and responding to investigations. Finally, you’ll see examples of how to deal with the top NERC standards violations, and get a window into new directions in FERC enforcement and how industry might provide guidance to assist the development of more effective future reliability standards.
