California Independent System Operator Corporation; Notice of Technical Conference
October 21, 2008.
On June 27, 2008, the California Independent System Operator Corporation (CAISO) filed an amendment to its Market Redesign and Technology (MRTU) Tariff pursuant to section 205 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) and section 35.13 of the Commission's regulations.1In its filing, the CAISO proposed market power mitigation measures to apply to Exceptional Dispatch instructions issued in circumstances where resources could exercise local market power. The CAISO also proposed modifications to the MRTU Tariff to clarify a number of Exceptional Dispatch provisions. On October 16, 2008, under section 205 of the FPA, the Commission issued an order2accepting and suspending the proposed revisions, subject to refund, pending the Commission's decision in a section 206 investigation. In that order, the Commission established a section 206 investigation and directed Staff to convene a technical conference to further explore the CAISO's Exceptional Dispatch mechanism and proposed mitigation plan.
