Phase 1 Implementation: March 13, 2020
On March 13, 2020, the Protocol sections listed below were implemented to allow current Market Participants to submit Cybersecurity Contact information to ERCOT through the Notice of Change of Information (NCI) form (Protocol Section 23 Form E), and prospective Market Participants to designate a Cybersecurity Contact in the application process (Protocol Section 23 Forms A, B, G, I, J & M).
