Supplement to Commission Procedures During Periods of Emergency Operations Requiring Activation of Continuity of Operations Plan

In this rule the Commission supplements the procedures previously established with regard to filing and other requirements if the Commission is required to implement its Continuity of Operations Plan in response to an emergency situation that disrupts communications to or from the Commission's headquarters or which otherwise impairs headquarters operations. The rule temporarily tolls for purposes of further consideration the time period for Commission action required for relief from, or reinstatement of, an electric utility's mandatory purchase obligation under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978.
