There are no objections to the continued recording of outage or
service interruption data on important foreign interconnecting
facilities. It is essential, however, that non-Reclamation
ownership of such facilities be indicated in a subsequent column
on the form headed "Foreign Owner" (

While certain of the procedures outlined above may require
somewhat more recording than was required previously by the
field offices to describe a specific outage, they will develop
Reclamation-wide uniformity in reporting, and will permit direct
transcription of data to ADP components for subsequent retrieval.
Two of the laborious tasks of which the field offices consequently
will be relieved are the preparation of the Annual Summary of
Transmission Line Outages and the Annual Summary of
Substation Outages. In addition, the preparation or updating of
other periodic information, such as the System Reliability Criteria
and Standards Study, will be expedited.
