6. Performance Oblie-ations.
a. Bonneville's Performance Obligations
(1) Bonneville shall undertake the operations, maintenance, reporting,
documentation and such other responsibilities required by the
Standards and Requirements specified in Exhibit A for Utility to

(2) Bonneville shall accept and be bound by the relevant interpretations
and final orders ofFERC, the ERO, and the RRO regarding the
actions that are required to be taken by Bonneville in order to fulfill
its obligations under Exhibit A. Bonneville may comply with such
interpretations without the consent of Utility.
(3) If performance of Bonneville's obligations hereunder requires access
by Bonneville personnel to property or facilities of the Utility,
Bonneville shall comply with all applicable Utility access procedures
and safety regulations and take any necessary safety instruction that
may be required by Utility.
b. Utility's Performance Obligations
(1) Utility, and not Bonneville, shall be responsible for compliance with
the Standards and Requirements listed in Exhibit B and all other
activities required to comply with the Standards and Requirements,
including documentation requirements, that apply to Utility and that
are not listed in Exhibit A.

software on its system necessary for Bonneville to comply with the
Standards and Requirements in Exhibit A. If requested by either
Party, the Parties shall meet to discuss the necessity of such

Bonneville and its authorized contractors timely access to Utility's
facilities to perform those obligations, subject to Bonneville's
compliance with Section 6a(3) of this Delegation Agreement.

system or for failure to comply with other obligations of a Registered Entity
regardless of whether a dispute exists between the Parties under Sections
7(c) and 7(d) below.
b. Bonneville shall reimburse Utility for any monetary penalty imposed on
Utility as the Registered Entity for violations of Standards and Requirements
for which Bonneville is responsible under Section 6a. Bonneville shall
reimburse Utility for any such monetary penalties within thirty (30) days of
Bonneville's receipt of an invoice from Utility or within thirty (30) days of,
and consistent with, the final resolution of any dispute under Section 7d.
Bonneville shall recover the costs of any monetary penalty reimbursement
through generally applicable rates and charges, and not through any direct
chltrge, surcharge or penalty that assesses such monetary penalty against
Utility. If Utility's acts or omissions are responsible in whole or in part for
Bonneville's failure to comply with such Standards and Requirements, Utility
shall bear a share of the monetary penalty based on its comparative fault.
c. In determining whether and to what extent Utility is responsible for any part
of monetary penalties imposed with respect to Bonneville's violation of its
obligations pursuant to this Delegation Agreement, the Parties shall use good
faith efforts to reach agreement on the proper amount, if any, of the

resolution, the dispute shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration
administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial
Arbitration Rules, unless the Parties agree in writing upon another method
for resolving the dispute. Each Party shall have discovery rights as set out in
the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Judgment upon any award rendered by
an arbitrator may be entered in any court or administrative body having

include interest on the amount of such monetary penalty for which
Bonneville is determined to be responsible. The Parties shall equally share
the costs of any arbitration process, including the cost of the arbitrator, court
reporter and room rental. Each party shall be responsible for the costs of
presenting its own case, including, without limitation, witnesses, attorneys,
and consultants.
8. Challenges to Penalties. Sanctions and Other Non-Monetary Directives.
a. If Bonneville elects to challenge a monetary penalty, non-monetary sanction
or other non-monetary directive noticed by the RRO, ERO or FERC for
performance or non-performance of activities for which Bonneville has
assumed responsibility under this Delegation Agreement, then Bonneville
shall notify Utility in writing of its decision to challenge and shall consult
with Utihty regarding the potential risks, costs and liabihties resulting from
the challenge before filing any such challenge. Utility shall cooperate with
Bonneville in initiating and pursuing such challenge, and the Parties shall
assume their own costs of initiating and pursuing such challenge.
b. If Bonneville does not elect to challenge a monetary penalty, non-monetary
sanction or other non-monetary directive noticed by the RRO, ERO or FERC
for the performance or non-performance of activities for which Bonneville has
assumed responsibility under this Delegation Agreement, but Utility deSIres
to challenge such monetary penalty, non-monetary sanction or other non-
monetary directIve, then Utility shall notify BonnevIlle in writing of its
decision to challenge and consult with Bonneville regarding the potential

This standard establishes requirements for
Balancing Authority Automatic Generation

Error (ACE) and to routinely deploy the
Regulating Reserve. The standard also ensures
that all facilities and load electrically
synchronized to the Interconnection are included
within the metered boundary of a Balancing Area
so that balancing of resources and demand can be
achieved.
To avoid adverse impacts on reliability, Generator
Owners and Transmission Owners and electricity
end-users must meet facility connection and

ReliabilIty Coordinators must have the authonty,
plans, and agreements in place to immediately
direct reliability entities within their Reliability
Coordinator Areas to redispatch generation,
reconfigure transmission, or reduce load to
mitigate critical conditions to return the system to
a reliable state. If a Reliability Coordinator
delegates tasks to others, the Reliability

Coordinator Area to ensure the Bulk Electric
System can be operated reliably in anticipated
normal and Contingency conditions. System
studies must be conducted to highlight potential

voltage and stability limits, etc. Plans must be
developed to alleviate System Operatmg LImit
(SOL) and Interconnection Reliability Operating
Limit (IROL) violations.
To ensure that assessments and validatIOn of past
