SHORT DESCRIPTION:  CORRECTION – July 2011 Monthly CRR Auction

INTENDED AUDIENCE:  CRR Account Holders

DAYS AFFECTED:  June 3 – 16, 2011

LONG DESCRIPTION:  Credit Submission for the July 2011 Monthly CRR Auction began at 00:00:01 CPT on June 3, 2011, and will close at 17:00:00 CPT on June 13, 2011. The previous Notice (M-C060311-01) incorrectly listed the close of the Credit Submission window as June 16, 2011.

Per Section 7.5.2(3) of the ERCOT Nodal Protocols, ERCOT will enforce a volume limitation of 10,000 market transactions (bids and offers) per account holder. The CRR Auction Bid window opens at 00:00:01 CPT on June 14, 2011, and closes at 17:00:00 CPT on June 16, 2011.

Per Section 7.5.2(3)(c), if the total number of bids submitted for the auction exceeds 200,000, a second round of bid submissions will be required. CRR Account Holders will be notified via Operator Message. Account Holders whose bids and offers exceed the maximum number of allowable bids/offers determined for the second round will have their portfolios removed from the auction and will be required to resubmit a new portfolio with the total number of bids less than or equal to the second round bid limit. The current bid/offer limit for the second round of the July 2011 Monthly CRR Auction is set at 1158. Note that this limit is subject to change prior to the running of the auction. The final maximum allowable bids/offers will be listed in the Operator Message should a second auction be necessary.

This second auction, if needed, will be open from 18:00:00 CPT on June 16, 2011, until 12:00:00 CPT on June 17, 2011.
