Which of the following is NOT a requirement for the Reliability Coordinator regarding GMDs?

The correct answer is that specifying actions for the Transmission Operator's GMD Operating Procedures is not a requirement for the Reliability Coordinator regarding geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs). Reliability Coordinators play a critical role in overseeing the reliability of the bulk power system, including monitoring and responding to GMDs, but they do not dictate specific operational procedures for Transmission Operators.

Instead, each Transmission Operator is responsible for developing its own GMD Operating Procedures based on the guidance provided by the Reliability Coordinator and other regulatory standards. The focus of the Reliability Coordinator is more on managing the overall reliability of the system, establishing alert levels, communicating essential information to affected entities—including possibly local authorities—and conducting necessary training to raise awareness of the impacts of GMDs. This ensures a coordinated response and preparedness within the grid, but the intricacies of operational procedures remain with the individual operators.
