Agenda
1 / Antitrust Admonition - Read by Jim Lee / M. Trenary / 9:30 a.m.2 / Introductions/Agenda Review and Discussion / M. Trenary / 9:35 a.m.
Debbie McKeever requested to review the COPMG Outline. CCWG discussed the User Guides that ERCOT has already committed to create. Jim Lee suggested creating a working document to record our efforts on the COPMG Outline. This working document will be used to record when a section was last reviewed, so CCWG will know when to review it again. CCWG decided to create a working document called COPMG_Outine_MM_DD_YY_Change_History.xls.
Jim Lee will put the COPMG Outline in an excel file and send it out to the CCWG distribution list. CCWG members will make notes and bring them to the June meeting for consolidation.
CCWG discussed SEWG’s User Guide for Settlements effort. CCWG will review the Guide and make references to it. It was clarified that all working group actions are subject to Subcommittee review and TAC.
Art Deller provided a demonstration of the MIS system. He showed how to find reports, statements, invoices, etc. Art also reminded CCWG that Resettlement notices will be pulled by Market Participants from the MIS as opposed to being sent via email.
