ADDENDUM I: THE PIG ROAST IN RECENT YEARS
The Pig Roast Primer documents the storied history and processes of “THE PIG ROAST. ” Planners in days of yore would spend the week planning the system and then camp out with their families and friends, devoting a full day plus to collectively roasting a pig. For a variety of reasons we have been unable to maintain “The Pig Roast” in the strict traditional fashion, so some changes were needed. This Addendum is designed to accompany the “Primer” while providing updated recommendations for hosting and conducting the annual “Pig Roast . ” The hope is that this combination will work well in today’s environment and allow us to retain our ties to the past while continuing to foster socialization and comradery among transmission planners.
CHANGES TO SERC REGIONAL BOUNDARIES
To better align studies, assessments, and reporting with the existing Planning Coordinator boundaries, SERC redefined the subregions to: MISO-Central (previously the Gateway subregion), MISO-South (previously the Delta subregion), Central, East (previously part of the VACAR subregion), Southeastern, and PJM (previously part of the VACAR subregion). On July 1, 2018, SERC's membership grew and its footprint expanded west as a result of 13 Registered Entities transferring from the dissolved SPP Region to SERC. They were added to the MISO South subregion. On July 1, 2019, SERC's membership grew yet again with all of the entities joining SERC from the dissolved FRCC Region. A new subregion called FL- Peninsula was formed to incorporate all of the incoming FRCC entities.
