NERC (North American standards)

One comment window closes this week, and it closes today: the Standards Processes Manual revisions that implement the Modernization of Standard Processes and Procedures. One other comment window stays open: 2026-03 Computational Loads Disturbance Performance, through 2026-11-20.

Corrected November 6, 2026. The first version of this edition left out the comment window on Project 2026-03, which opened October 22, and called all 21 items on NERC's list open. This version lists the window and says where those items stand.

Closing this week

2026-10-26 (today): Standards Processes Manual Revisions | Modernization of Standard Processes and Procedures Implementation. This is the only comment window closing this week, and today is the date it closes.

Coming up

Comments by 2026-11-20: the informal comment period on the Standard Authorization Request for 2026-03 Computational Loads Disturbance Performance, open since 2026-10-22, runs through 8 p.m. Eastern.

The wide view

Beyond today's deadline, NERC's project list holds 21 items, all tracked. The Standards Committee has discontinued 13 of them under its current process, with an intent to reconsider them under the new standards intake process. Of the other eight, one carries the window above and the rest have no comment window open, among them 2026-02 Computational Loads, 2025-06 Supply Chain Risk Management, and 2025-03 Order No. 901 Operational Studies.
