Open Action Items from Previous Meetings
Responsible Party
  • Present to COPS the issues related to the proxy day routine in anticipation of advanced metering, and to ask for a green light for the PWG to analyze the routine
 Brad Boles - Cirro

  • Update the valid profile IDs tab of the Profile Decision Tree to show BUS profile IDs with a meter data type of IDR for the next PWG meeting.

 ERCOT - Adrian Marquez

  • Change the valid profile IDs tab of the Profile Decision Tree so that all BUS LF and RES that have a meter data type of IDR have a default weather sensitivity code of WS.  This also requires changes in the Segment Assignment tab. 

 ERCOT - Adrian Marquez

  • Work on the LPGRR so that the Profile Decision Tree (PDT) directs TDSPs to send in information specified on the DRG tab only if the ESI ID’s DRG capacity is < 50 kW.  Also, ERCOT to include directions such that PDT says if BUSIDRRQ, do not move to BUSIDRRG.

 ERCOT - Adrian Marquez

  • Come up with a recommendation for when TDSPs are required to submit information related to the interconnection agreement.

ERCOT - Adrian Marquez

  • Get clear direction from the DG task force on whether or not the assignment of BUSIDRRQ should be required for DRG > 50 kW generation capacity and not more than 700 kW load.  Should the assignment be BUSIDRRQ or BUSHIPV with IDR meter data type? 

PWG
  •  Give an update to COPS, summarizing where PWG is on meeting its goals
 Brad Boles - Cirro
  • Create a rough timeline to give an idea of how the LRS round 2 sampling is likely to proceed. 
ERCOT - Bill Boswell
