FERC Issues Order Denying Rehearing on Reliability Standard CIP-014-1

On April 23, 2015, in Docket No. RM14-15, the Commission issued an order denying a request for rehearing filed by the Foundation for Resilient Societies regarding the adequacy of physical security reliability standard CIP-014-1. On November 20, 2014, FERC issued Order No. 802 conditionally approving CIP-014-1. The Foundation for Resilient Societies filed a request for rehearing, arguing CIP-014-1 fails to satisfy the Commission’s requirements for physical security protection of the Bulk-Power System. The immediate order denies that request.
