  8. CIP-014-1 – Physical Security R2.Third party verification. • Each TO shall have an unaffiliatedthird party verify the risk assessment performed under Requirement R1. • The unaffiliated third party verification may include recommendations for the addition or deletion of a Transmission station/ substation(s). • The TO shall ensure the verification is completed within 90 calendar days R3. TO-TOP Notification for Primary control center(s) • Primary control center(s) that operationally control(s) an identified Transmission station/ substation notunder the operational control of the TO: The TO, within seven calendar days following completion of Requirement R2 notify the TOP that of the identification and the date of completion of Requirement R2. R4. Evaluation of the potential threats and vulnerabilities • Each TO & TOP shall evaluate threats and vulnerabilities to a physical attack for each of their identified Transmission station(s), substation(s), and primary control center(s) The evaluation shall consider the following: • Unique characteristics of the identified and verified Transmission station(s), Transmission substation(s), and primary control center(s); • Prior history of attack on similar facilities taking into account the frequency, geographic proximity, and severity of past physical security related events; and • Intelligence or threat warnings received from sources such as law enforcement, the Electric Reliability Organization (ERO), the Electricity Sector Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ES-ISAC), U.S. federal and/or Canadian governmental agencies, or their successors.

  9. CIP-014-1 – Physical Security R5. Physical Security Plan(s) and Implementation Schedule Within 120 days of completion of requirement R2. Each TO &TOP shall develop and implement a documented physical security plan(s) and implementation schedule for their respective Transmission station/ substation(s) and primary control centers. The physical security plan(s) shall include the following attributes: • Resiliency or security measures designed collectively to deter, detect, delay, assess, communicate, and respond to potential physical threats and vulnerabilities identified during the evaluation conducted in Requirement R4. • Law enforcement contact and coordination information. • A timeline for executing the physical security enhancements and modifications specified in the physical security plan. • Provisions to evaluate evolving physical threats, and their corresponding security measures, to the Transmission station(s), Transmission substation(s), or primary control center(s).

  10. CIP-014-1 – Physical Security R6. Third party review of the security plan(s) and implementation schedule • TO & TOP shall select an unaffiliated third party reviewer with one or more of the following qualifications: • An entity or organization with electric industry physical security experience, and whose review staff has at least one member who holds either a Certified Protection Professional (CPP) or Physical Security Professional (PSP) certification. • An entity or organization approved by the ERO. • A governmental agency with physical security expertise. • An entity or organization with demonstrated law enforcement, government, or military physical security expertise. The TO&TOP shall ensure the verification is completed within 90 calendar days If the third party reviewer recommends changes to the evaluation performed threats and vulnerabilities to a physical attack or security plan(s) developed under Requirement R5, the Transmission Owner or Transmission Operator shall, within 60 calendar days of the completion of the unaffiliated third party review, for each recommendation: • Modify its evaluation or security plan(s) consistent with the recommendation; or • Document the reason(s) for not modifying the evaluation or security plan(s) consistent with the recommendation.

  12. TPL-007-1 Geomagnetic Disturbance Vulnerability Assessment During a GMD event, geomagnetically-induced currents (GIC) may cause transformer hot-spot heating or damage, loss of Reactive Power sources, increased Reactive Power demand, and Misoperation, the combination of which may result in voltage collapse and blackout.
