< Jerry,
<
< The subgroup of the Congestion Management Working Group (CMWG) which has
< been performing power flow studies and analyzing the zonal weighted
average
< shift factors, held a conference call this afternoon to review the work
< done by different members of the subgroup recently. This conference call
< also included members of the TXU & Reliant TDSPs who have reviewed and
< offerred input into the process.
<
< During the conference call we reached a consensus of what values to use
for
< the 2002 summer on-peak TTC ratings for the CSCs in the direction of base
< flow (i.e. for West to North flow on the Graham to Parker CSC, for South
to
< North flow on the Temple to Sandow CSC, and for South to Houston flow on
< the STP to Dow CSC). These TTC limits are shown in the PowerPoint
< presentation attached below. Additionally, I have included a list of the
< Boundary Generators and restated the CREs for each CSC by which CREs are
< Closely Related Contingencies and which CREs are Closely Related Monitored
< Elements.
<
< With the work that was done by this subgroup recently, we now have a high
< degree of confidence that the CSC flows predicted by the Zonal Average
< Weighted Shift Factors match very closely what is observed by power flow
< software. Therefore, the doubt that we had earlier on this issue has been
< resolved.
<
< One issue that was raised during today's conference call that needs the
< attention of the WMS is, will TCRs be sold in both directions on the CSCs?
< If so, then TTC limits in the opposite direction will need to be developed
< as well. Ken Donohoo said that there has been some discussion on this
< issue by different stakeholders this week and that clarity is needed.
<
< One last note on the CREs shown in the PowerPoint presentation, please
< review it to determine if all changes that were discussed at Monday's CMWG
< meeting are reflected. I know that the ones in the Austin area have been
< removed; however, Jose Conto thinks that a couple were agreed upon to be
< added at that meeting; however, he wasn't sure which ones they were.
< Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thanks
<
< Shannon
