Please note that although we have allotted the entire morning session to discussion of the CPM compensation methodology, we will move on to discussion of exceptional dispatch mitigation as soon as the compensation discussion is concluded. 10 a.m.–12:30 p.m. Discussion on the CPM Compensation Methodology —Whether the proposed going-forward formula for CPM compensation continues to be appropriate. —Whether and how CPM compensation should change in response to changes in supply and demand so that the CPM continues to ensure appropriate compensation to non-resource adequacy resources that provide reliability services similar to those provided by resource adequacy resources. —Whether and how CPM compensation should respond to localized scarcity conditions; please evaluate the challenges and benefits of implementing CPM scarcity pricing. —Given that resource adequacy resources are currently procured through bilateral contracting, whether and how CPM compensation should replicate bilateral market results. —Please discuss the feasibility and appropriateness of using a mechanism such as a demand curve to allow the price of CPM capacity to rise during times of supply shortages. —Other than a demand-curve based compensation mechanism, how could the CPM compensation methodology be modified to better respond to changing market conditions (i.e., fluctuations in supply and demand over time); please discuss the challenges and benefits of any such approach. —Whether different categories of CPM designations, including resources selected on the basis of specific operating characteristics and resources designated as at risk of retirement, should be compensated differently. —What role the CPM should play in sending price signals for demand response. —How demand response will play a role in the CPM and/or exceptional dispatch consistent with Order No. 719 (e.g. criteria for selecting demand response resources for CPM designations or exceptional dispatch instructions). 12:30 p.m.–1:15 p.m. Lunch break 1:15 p.m.–3:45 p.m. Discussion on Exceptional Dispatch Mitigation VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:52 Apr 19, 2011 Jkt 223001 —Whether and how CAISO’s efforts towards reducing the frequency and volume of exceptional dispatches have affected the potential for exceptionally dispatched resources to exercise market power. —Whether CAISO’s non-competitive path assessment remains a reliable indicator of the need for exceptional dispatch mitigation in light of protesters’ assertions that the competitive path assessment overclassifies paths as non-competitive. —Whether or how changes over the past two years, such as an increase in the number of resources available in the delta dispatch, have resulted in a reduction in the ability of any single resource to exercise market power in relation to the delta dispatch restrictions. —Whether there is data or, alternatively, detailed specific theoretical scenarios, that demonstrate with some type of regularity or predictability the potential for resources that are exceptionally dispatched in relation to non-competitive constraints or delta dispatch to exercise market power. 3:45 p.m.–4 p.m. Closing Remarks [FR Doc. 2011–9516 Filed 4–19–11; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717–01–P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. CP11–159–000] Perryville Gas Storage LLC; Notice of Amendment Take notice that on March 30, 2011, Perryville Gas Storage LLC (Perryville), Three Riverway, Suite 1350, Houston, Texas 77056, filed in the above referenced docket an application under section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Commission’s regulations for an order amending the certificate of public convenience and necessity issued in Docket No. CP09– 418–000 to authorize Perryville to make certain changes to its certificated project, all as more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
