Background

Status: Pending
Date Posted: Jul 24, 2024
Sponsor: ERCOT and TRE
Urgent: No
Sections: 1.3.4, 1.3.5, and 1.3.6
Description: This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) revises requirements regarding notice and disclosure of Protected Information and ERCOT Critical Energy Infrastructure Information (ECEII). First, this NPRR proposes that notice before disclosure is not required when ERCOT, as the Receiving Party, provides Protected Information or ECEII to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), the NERC Regional Entity, or a Governmental Cybersecurity Oversight Agency, and removes the requirement that disclosure of Protected Information or ECEII under paragraph (1)(j) of Section 1.3.6, Exceptions, is permissible only if necessary to comply with any applicable NERC or NERC Regional Entity requirement. Additionally, this NPRR adds FERC to the list of explicitly designated entities to which Protected Information and ECEII can be provided under paragraph (1)(j) of Section 1.3.6. This NPRR also adds FERC to the list of explicitly designated entities in paragraphs (4) and (5) of Section 1.3.4, Protecting Disclosures to the PUCT, CFTC, Governmental Cybersecurity Oversight Agencies, and Other Governmental Authorities, to which disclosures of Protected Information and ECEII do not trigger a requirement for the Receiving Party or Creating Party to seek a protective order as a condition for such disclosure.
Reason: General system and/or process improvement(s)
