Under the section for the Exigent Circumstances definition, it would be beneficial to get more specific on the 3rd criteria listed - "...significant impacts to utility service." Would it be possible to elaborate on this and perhaps provide an example?

In the Introduction, “In these circumstances, the RAPC will work with the Western Power Pool (WPP) staff to prepare the design change and may propose such a change directly to the Board.” Is this sentence intended to be inclusive of all who will be involved in the design change? For example, would a task force appointed by RAPC be eligible for proposal creation? Or is it intended to strictly limit it to RAPC members? In either circumstance there is probably more clarity that can be added to the BPM in that area.

The Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) appreciates the dedication to transparency and efforts of the Western Power Pool to provide clarity of the process to review changes to the Tariff or approved Business Practice Manuals (BPM). However, to enhance transparency, it would be beneficial to include specific examples of what might constitute "significant impacts to utility service."

1.4 Definiftiions  "Exigent Circumstances: Amendments to the Tariff or approved BPMs that the RAPC determines are FERC-mandated, address immediate reliability impacts, or have significant impacts to utility service.."

This definition feel wrong - Exigent Circumstance is the specific cause…..   The Amendments to Tariff and/or BPM is the action taken as a result of the cause (the Expedited process)
