Re: east coast powergrid / SCADA [OT?]

["Geoff Shively" <gshively () pivx com>]

NERC (nerc.com) North American Electric Reliability Council has a hidden
report that states at "14:06 Chamberlain - Harding 345 Kv line tripped -- 
cause not reported". This was the first sign of failure. NE US and Canada
did not report significant outages prior to 15:11.

Another point to look at is at "15:17 - 15:21 Numerous lines in Michigan
tripped"
