There was an issue identified with the Blackline posted on September 4. We have corrected it and a revised version has been posted. While the issue only substantively impacted one REM ISO rule, Section 212.8, Issuing Dispatches and Directives for Operative Reserves, other minor formatting related issues with track changes were found and corrected in the new version. If you had already downloaded a copy of the Blacklines, please replace with the new one. Thank you for your understanding.

We are aware of an issue with the Blackline for at least one section of the rules. We are actively investigating and working to correct it. We will repost a new version of the Blackline document as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and apologies for any inconvenience.
