3. Current Configuration
WEQ 2019 Annual Plan Item 3a
Current Configuration
NAESB Standard WEQ-001 currently requires a Transmission Provider to register certain OASIS data elements in the EIR.
NAESB e-Tag specifications require registration of Sources and Sinks data elements in OASIS.

4. WEQ 2019 Annual Plan Item 3a The Challenge
Establishment of a requirement to automatically update a Provider’s OASIS data model based on changes to the EIR may introduce significant challenges in all downstream systems dependent on the OASIS data model.
Optionality – proposing a standard for those who would not experience difficulty – not well received by the FERC.
10/15/2019

5. WEQ 2019 Annual Plan Item 3a The Recommendation
Given the existing NAESB Standards regarding OASIS and the EIR and difficulties in drafting standards requirements with sufficient flexibility to not disrupt operations, and
Nothing precludes a Provider from implementing their own methods for obtaining and using EIR data.
WEQ-OS recommends No new standard development of modification of existing standards.
