There are two questions that TDSPs would like to ask for Market feedback:

1.    TDSPs are currently planning to send the initial settlement ready meter data 6 days after the billing cycle day.  This time lag would support the initial transition to the new settlement processes (867_03 non-IDR data accepted and 814_20 change to IDR/WS accepted by ERCOT before ESI ID AMS data sent via LSE file), as well as all future meter cycle days. 

i.    Are there any concerns with this time lag from a settlement perspective?

2.    If TDSPs plan to send all 15-minute data, whether it is settlement ready or not, in the LSE file format for processing by ERCOT.  We currently believe that ERCOT will only accept and process the settlement ready data and reject the remainder. 

i.    If there are no concerns with this concept, we would like to proceed with this effort since it will not require additional programming to manage settlement only data especially during our AMS roll-out time period.
