When a restoration plan is revised or created, how many days does the Reliability Coordinator have to distribute these plans to each Transmission Owner and neighboring Reliability Coordinator?

The requirement is that when a restoration plan is revised or created, the Reliability Coordinator must distribute these plans to each Transmission Owner and neighboring Reliability Coordinator within 30 calendar days. This timeframe ensures that all relevant parties have timely access to the updated procedures and information necessary for effective coordination in the event of a reliability issue or system disturbance.

This 30-day period allows for adjustments and communication to be made while ensuring that the plans are not outdated and can be utilized promptly when needed. Having a clear timeline helps maintain consistency and efficiency in restoration efforts across different entities involved in the operation of the electric grid, which is vital for maintaining reliability and minimizing downtime.
