WSCC Contingency Plan (Western Grid)greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread |
An comprehensive document. Islanding is out except for emergencies, but they will train for it. Lots of extra personnel at critical facilities. Critical generating and sub-station facilies to be identified and personnel trained to take facilities to manual if need be.Posted on csy2k yesterday.
~~~~~~~~~ It's still in draft version, but the Western Systems Coordinating Council has posted its contingency plan. Makes for interesting reading.
WSCC is the controlling body for the Western-US part of the power grid.
