  1. Market Participant Default Joint Taskforce Update and Report on Recent Customer Transition Activity Report to WMS August 17, 2005

  2. Taskforce Purpose • TAC created RMS/WMS joint taskforce to: • review current procedures for Market Participant default • determine whether improvements can be made • Objective of taskforce is to minimize or eliminate uplift exposure • From the initial Joint TF meeting: • Pre-triggering event issues to be addressed by WMS • Post-triggering event issues to be addressed by RMS • Joint meetings will be scheduled as needed

  3. RMS Short-Term Recommendation • If LSE does not cure, defaulting LSE must provide ERCOT customer information.  • ERCOT is to send best available information to POLRs (either ESI ID list or customer information that has been obtained from defaulting REP) • In the event the defaulting LSE cannot provide ERCOT with customer information, POLR is to work with TDSP to obtain existing customer information. • POLR is to submit off-cycle, unprotected switch based on the first available switch date (currently, six Retail Business days).  These switches must be submitted within five Retail Business days of receipt of ESI ID information.  • This ensures a maximum effective date for the transition (less than or equal to 11 Retail Business Days) within these guidelines.  •  Educational seminar for POLRs, TDSPs, ERCOT, and PUCT Staff.

  4. RMS Items for Further Consideration • Additional short-term recommendation • Mass update of customer information using either csv or 814_PC (accomplish by September 1, 2005). • Remanded back to RMS TF to address concerns noted at RMS • Long-term recommendation • All customer update maintenance through 814_PC • Transactional/automated solution • TDSP Mass Meter Estimates

  5. WMS TF Meetings • Conference call on Monday 7/18/05 • Reviewed pre-triggering event issues • Identified issues for discussion for 07/22/05 meeting • Meetings on Friday 07/22/05 and Thursday 07/28/05 • Emergency QSE designation • Market rules for Emergency QSE designation • Settlement of load of a defaulting LSE • Trigger point for mass transition of customers    • Review of timelines surrounding a Market Participant default • Notification by QSE to terminate relationship with LSE • Timeline for LSE to meet credit requirements or find another QSE • Timeline in Market Participant agreements   • Review whether the scheduling rights of defaulting QSEs should be terminated or not

  6. WMS TF Meetings • Outcomes of WMS TF Meetings: • Creating PRRs to address the following: • In a default situation where an LSE is no longer represented by a QSE, use of a virtual QSE for tracking and scheduling purposes of the LSE’s load at ERCOT. • In the situation where a QSE defaults, LSEs are dropped to the Default QSE (16.2.12.2). Propose providing LSEs the additional option of becoming an Emergency (EQSE). • QSEs should be allowed to continue to schedule any bilateral contracts they may have to lessen the impact to the Market. • Language clean-up and clarity

  7. WMS TF Meetings:Continued PRRs • Two options regarding timelines for QSE terminating relationship with LSE: Option 1: Extend timeline for notification of a QSE to terminate relationship with LSE to 7 Business Days. • By noon on the 4th Business Day, LSE must either name a new QSE or qualify as EQSE. • If LSE does not meet either, then LSE is in breech of contract. • Notice provided on afternoon of 4th Business Day and cure period begins on 5th Business Day. • At end of 7th Business Day (which coincides with end of cure period), current QSE/LSE relationship is terminated and LSE is assigned to a virtual QSE for tracking purposes. Option 2: Maintain current timeline of 5 Business Days for notification of a QSE to terminate relationship with LSE. • Modify timeline for LSE to name a new QSE or qualify as EQSE by noon on the 4th Business Day. • If LSE does not meet either, then LSE is in breech of contract. • Notice provided on afternoon of 4th Business Day and cure period begins on 5th Business Day. • At end of 5th Business Day, current QSE/LSE relationship is terminated and LSE is assigned to a virtual QSE for tracking purposes.
