Antitrust Admonition
ERCOT strictly prohibits market participants and their employees who are participating in ERCOT activities from using their participation in ERCOT activities as a forum for engaging in practices or communications that violate the antitrust laws.  The ERCOT Board has approved guidelines for members of ERCOT Committees, subcommittees and working Groups to be reviewed and followed by each market participant attending ERCOT meetings.  If you have not received a copy of these Guidelines, copies are available at the Client Services desk.

Disclaimer

All presentations and materials submitted by Market Participants or any other Entity to ERCOT staff for this meeting are received and posted with the acknowledgement that the information will be considered public in accordance with the ERCOT Websites Content Management Operating Procedure.

MCT discussions:

-       Currently the AMS Indicator (REF~MR) in the Implementation Guide shows multiple REF~MR can be sent in the same transaction.  ERCOT is suggesting this be updated to only allow 1 per transaction.

o   If multiple are sent to ERCOT they will not know what to display on TML

o   ERCOT would like to receive REP input on receiving multiple REF~MR in the same transaction. 

§  What would you do? 

§  Would you expect ERCOT to reject so you only receive 1?  Or would you store both?
