View Rule

The Commission approved Reliability Standard CIP-014-1 (Physical Security). The North American Electric Reliability Corporation, the Commission-certified Electric Reliability Organization, submitted Reliability Standard CIP-014-1 for Commission approval in response to a Commission order issued on March 7, 2014. The purpose of Reliability Standard CIP-014-1 is to enhance physical security measures for the most critical Bulk-Power System facilities and thereby lessen the overall vulnerability of the Bulk-Power System against physical attacks. In addition, the Commission directed NERC to develop one modification to Reliability Standard CIP-014-1 and submit an informational filing.  The Commission denied rehearing on April 23, 2015 (Docket Nos. RM14-15-000 and RM14-15-001).
