Purpose and Users

• System Awareness and Event Analysis staffs (shared information)– NERC SA & EA – to capture information about events– Regional SA & EA - to capture information about events

within the region; passes through to NERC, and can be seen by other regions

• Compliance staffs (NERC and/or Region) – to track those events of interest to them (each independent of the others)

• Use by NERC will be required; by Regions, it is an option (but encouraged)

Functionality

• Many fields are formatted, but to be filled in by user• Where possible, pull-down “pick lists” from CRATS,

TADS, GADS (will not send information back to CRATS, TADS, GADS)

• Where possible, fields may be automated (e.g., Event TrackingID may be partially filled in with Region and event date information)

• Reporting functions will be built, but there will also be ability to pull data for other “non-defined” reporting (adhoc reporting)
