WIRAB submitted advice to the WECC Board of Directors on the implementation of the Reliability Assessment Committee (RAC). WIRAB supports the creation of the RAC, but WIRAB identifies challenges with a perceived lack of authority to adjust data submitted to WECC which limits the committee’s ability to independently and rigorously assess reliability issues and encourages the WECC Board to provide leadership to resolve disputes within the RAC to improve the quality of WECC’s reliability assessments.
