Additionally, under these same semi-annual reporting deadlines, SPs shall submit to the PA the Thousands-Block Forecast Report (Appendix 1)." Section 6.1.1 further advises that "NRUF forecast data needs to be supplemented in areas where thousands-block pooling has been implemented, and all thousands-block number pooling SPs shall provide a Thousands-Block Forecast Report (Appendix 1), on a semi-annual basis, by rate area to the PA in addition to the NRUF."
