MRO’s Compliance Monitoring and Enforcement Program Advisory Council will at times form subject matter expert teams (SMETs) to assist stakeholders in understanding the application of certain NERC Reliability Standards and requirements. These SMETs are tasked with developing and publishing non-binding guidance documents called Standard Application Guides (or SAGs). SAGs are subject to comment from MRO members through collaboration with other organizational groups, and the SMETs must consider all concerns and comments before final publication of the guidance materials.
If you would like to suggest that guidance be developed for a specific standard or requirement, or have comments or suggestions for an existing SAG, please submit a Standard Application Guide Request Form.
