The size of the associated combined 30 day Average Daily Load is approximately 208 MWHs and the number of ESI IDs involved is approximately 3.

ERCOT has been working closely with PUCT staff and Affected Market Participants to ensure an efficient and effective transfer of Customers to designated POLRs.
