• Form EIA–930 Balancing Authority
Operations Report collects a
comprehensive set of the current day’s
system demand data on an hourly basis
and the prior day’s basic hourly electric
system operating data on a daily basis.
The data provide a basic measure of the
current status of electric systems in the
United States and can be used to
compare actual system demand with the
day-ahead forecast, thereby providing a
measure of the accuracy of the
forecasting used to commit resources. In
addition, the data can be used to
address smart grid related issues such as
integrating wind and solar generation,
improving the coordination of natural
gas and electric short-term operations
and expanding the use of demand
response, storage, and electric vehicles
in electric systems operations.

of prohibited and exempt off-the-record

Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222,
September 22, 1999) requires
Commission decisional employees, who
make or receive a prohibited or exempt
off-the-record communication relevant
to the merits of a contested proceeding,
to deliver to the Secretary of the
Commission, a copy of the
communication, if written, or a
summary of the substance of any oral
communication.
Prohibited communications are
included in a public, non-decisional file
associated with, but not a part of, the
decisional record of the proceeding.
Unless the Commission determines that
the prohibited communication and any
responses thereto should become a part
of the decisional record, the prohibited
off-the-record communication will not
be considered by the Commission in
reaching its decision. Parties to a
proceeding may seek the opportunity to
respond to any facts or contentions
made in a prohibited off-the-record
communication, and may request that
the Commission place the prohibited
communication and responses thereto
in the decisional record. The
Commission will grant such a request
only when it determines that fairness so
requires. Any person identified below as
having made a prohibited off-the-record
communication shall serve the
document on all parties listed on the
official service list for the applicable
proceeding in accordance with Rule
2010, 18 CFR 385.2010.
Exempt off-the-record
communications are included in the
decisional record of the proceeding,
unless the communication was with a
cooperating agency as described by 40
CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR
