(b)	analysis of patterns of unplanned Generating Unit Outages;
(c)	analysis of compliance with NERC and WSCC Criteria;
(d)	analysis of operation during system disturbances;
(e)	analysis of patterns of shortfalls between Final Day-Ahead Schedules and actual Generation and Demand; and
(f)	analysis of patterns of unplanned transmission Outages.
ASRP 2.3	Communications
A Participating Generator or provider of Curtailable Demand wishing to offer any Ancillary Service must provide a direct ring down voice communications circuit (or a dedicated telephone line available 24 hours a day every day of the year) between the control room operator for the Generating Unit or Curtailable Demand providing the Ancillary Service and the ISO Control Center.  Each Participating Generator must also provide an alternate method of voice communications with the ISO from the control room in addition to the direct communication link required above.
ASRP 3	Ancillary Service Obligations for Scheduling Coordinators
ASRP 3.1	Ancillary Service Obligations
The ISO shall assign to each Scheduling Coordinator a share of the ISO’s total Regulation, Spinning Reserve, Non-Spinning Reserve and Replacement Reserve requirements.  The ISO will calculate the share for which each Scheduling Coordinator is responsible (its “obligation”) in accordance with the standards set forth in the ASRP.
ASRP 3.2	Right to Self Provide
Each Scheduling Coordinator may self provide all, or a portion, of its Regulation and Reserve obligation within each Zone or adjust its obligation through Inter-Scheduling Coordinator Ancillary Service Trades.
ASRP 4.2	Standard for Regulation: Performance
ASRP 4.2.1	Operating Characteristics of Generating Unit
A Generating Unit offering Regulation must have the following operating characteristics and technical capabilities: 
(a)	it must be capable of being controlled and monitored by the ISO Energy Management System (EMS) by means of the installation and use of a standard ISO direct communication and direct control system, a description of which and criteria for any temporary exemption from which, the ISO shall publish on the ISO internet “Home Page;”
(b)	it must be capable of achieving at least the ramp rates (increase and decrease in MW/minute) stated in its bid for the full amount of Regulation capacity offered; 
(c)	the Regulation capacity offered must not exceed the maximum ramp rate (MW/minute) of that Unit times a value within a range from a minimum of ten minutes to a maximum of thirty minutes, which value shall be specified by the ISO and published on the ISO’s internet “Home Page;” 
(d)	the Generating Unit to ISO Control Center telemetry must in a manner meeting ISO standards include indications of whether the Generating Unit is on or off AGC at the Generating Unit terminal equipment; and
(e)	the Generating Unite must be capable of the full range of movement within the amount of Regulation capability offered without manual Generating Unit operator intervention of any kind.
ASRP 4.2.2	Operational EMS/SCADA Equipment
Each Participating Generator must ensure that the ISO EMS control and related SCADA equipment is operational throughout the time period during which Regulation is required to be provided.
ASRP 4.3	SC’s Obligation for Regulation
Each Scheduling Coordinator’s Obligation for Regulation for each Settlement Period of the Day-Ahead Market and for each 
Hour-Ahead Market in each Zone shall be calculated based upon the ratio of metered Demand (excluding exports) by each Scheduling Coordinator in each identified Zone for that Settlement Period to the total metered Demand (excluding exports) for that Settlement Period in that Zone.
ASRP 4.4	Standard for Regulation: Control
The ACE will be calculated by the ISO EMS.  Control signals will be sent from the ISO EMS to raise or lower the output of Generating Units providing Regulation when ACE exceeds the allowable ISO Control Area dead band for ACE.  Use of dynamic schedules to provide regulation must be certified and approved by the ISO.
or, if earlier, until such time as the ISO can Dispatch additional resources to permit the resource to return to its scheduled Set Point or operating level for the current Settlement Period or such other level directed by an ISO Dispatch instruction.
ASRP 5.4.3	Availability
Each provider of Non-Spinning Reserve must ensure that its resources scheduled to provide Non-Spinning Reserve are available for Dispatch throughout the Settlement Period for which they have been scheduled.
ASRP 5.5	SC’s Obligation for Operating Reserve
ASRP 5.5.1	Obligation for Spinning and Non-Spinning Reserve
Except for the requirement for Non-Spinning Reserve referred to in paragraph ASRP 5.5.2, each Scheduling Coordinator’s Operating Reserve obligation in each Zone shall be pro rata based upon the same proportion as the product of its percentage obligation based on metered output and the sum of its metered Demand and firm exports bears to the total of such products for all Scheduling Coordinators in the Zone.  The Scheduling Coordinator’s percentage obligation based on metered output shall be calculated as the sum of 5% of its scheduled Demand (except the Demand covered by firm purchases from outside the ISO Control Area) met by Generation from hydroelectric resources plus 7% of its Demand (except the Demand covered by firm purchases from outside the ISO Control Area) met by Generation from non-hydroelectric resources in that Zone.
ASRP 5.5.2	Additional Non-Spinning Reserve Requirements
Additional Non-Spinning Reserve required pursuant to ASRP 5.2(a) and (b) is the responsibility of the Scheduling Coordinator implementing such Schedules and is in addition to the obligation provided in paragraph ASRP 5.5.1.
ASRP 5.6	Standard for Spinning Reserve: Control
Each provider of Spinning Reserve must be capable of receiving a Dispatch instruction within one minute from the time the ISO Control Center elects to Dispatch the Spinning Reserve resource and must ensure that its resource can be at the Dispatched 
earlier, until such time as the ISO can Dispatch additional resources to permit the Replacement Reserve resource to return to its scheduled Set Point or operating level for the current Settlement Period or such other level directed by an ISO Dispatch instruction.
ASRP 6.2.3	Resources already Providing Ancillary Service
Replacement Reserve may be supplied from resources already providing another Ancillary Service, such as Spinning Reserve, but only to the extent that the ability to provide the other Ancillary Service is not restricted in any way by the provision of Replacement Reserve.  The sum of Ancillary Service capacity supplied by the same resource cannot exceed the capacity of said resource.
ASRP 6.3	Scheduling Coordinator’s Obligation for Replacement Reserve
Scheduling Coordinator’s Obligation for Replacement Reserve for each Settlement Period of the Day-Ahead Market and for each Hour-Ahead Market in each zone shall be based upon the ratio of the metered Demand (excluding exports) by each Scheduling Coordinator in each identified Zone for that Settlement Period to the total metered Demand (excluding exports) for that Settlement Period in that Zone.
ASRP 6.4	Standard for Replacement Reserve: Control
Each provider of Replacement Reserve must be capable of receiving a Dispatch instruction within one minute from the time the ISO Control Center elects to Dispatch the Replacement Reserve resource and must ensure that its resource can be at the Dispatched operating level or condition within sixty minutes after issue of the Dispatch instruction.
ASRP 6.5	Standard for Replacement Reserve: Procurement
ASRP 6.5.1	Procurement of Non Self-Provided Replacement Reserve
Replacement Reserve necessary to meet ISO requirements not met by self-provided Replacement Reserve will be procured by the ISO as described in the ISO Tariff.

ASRP 6.5.2	Procurement Not Limited to ISO Control Area
The ISO will procure Replacement Reserves from Generating Units connected to and operating within the ISO Control Area and external imports of System Resources.
