participation requirements create undue
burdens for market participants, and
whether increased or decreased
uniformity in such requirements would
be beneficial. This panel will provide an
overview of the tools available to RTOs/
ISOs to conduct and proactively manage
counterparty risk, as well as best
practices and opportunities for
increased efficiency. Additionally, the
panel will explore opportunities for
increased information sharing across
RTOs/ISOs, as well as RTO/ISO
authority and burden. The panel may
include a discussion of the following
topics and questions:
1. What is the fundamental purpose of
minimum capitalization requirements?
Are the barriers to entry created by
current minimum capitalization
requirements commensurate with a
reduction in risk to the RTO/ISO
markets?
2. How, if at all, should minimum
capitalization differ for different types
of market participants, either based on
their structure or on the RTO/ISO
markets in which they participate? How,
if at all, should minimum capitalization
levels scale with the size of a market
participant’s portfolio? Should a market
participant’s participation in another
RTO/ISO affect minimum capitalization
requirements? Should different market
products have different minimum
capitalization requirements?
3. What are current best practices for
Know Your Customer protocols? Are
there tools and practices available that
the RTOs/ISOs should consider
adopting? Are different practices needed
for different market products or for
different types of market participants
based on type of entity, ownership
structure, or business strategy? Are tools
specific to the RTOs/ISOs necessary or
would commercially available, off-theshelf tools be adequate?
4. What burden does the Know Your
Customer process pose on market
participants? Are there ways the RTOs/
ISOs could make the Know Your
Customer process more efficient without
reducing its effectiveness?
5. What level of discretion should all
RTOs/ISOs have to reject or suspend a
market participant based on information
discovered during initial or periodic
reviews of a market participant’s risk?
How should this be balanced against
market participants’ rights?

The purpose of this panel will be to
explore the principles underlying initial
margin (the initial amount of collateral
required to enter into a contract) and
variation margin (the change in
collateral required as the value of a
contract changes over time) and how
RTOs/ISOs apply these principles to the
markets they administer, particularly to
FTR markets. This panel will highlight
the key differences in FTR credit
practices, as well as recent changes in
FTR credit policy. The panel may
include a discussion of the following
topics and questions:
1. What are basic principles
underlying initial and variation margin
and how are they applied in the RTO/
ISO markets? Do current RTO/ISO
practices adhere to general principles
for setting initial and variation margin?
Are there any metrics and assumptions
(e.g. collateral confidence levels and reassessment/true-up intervals, and
position closeout assumptions) that
should be examined to see how well
RTO/ISO practices ensure that initial
and variation margin levels are
adequate?
2. What are some of the best practices
in terms of measuring a market
participant’s FTR portfolio’s anticipated
exposure? What are the potential
benefits and downsides of using Markto-Auction collateral requirements,
incorporating future transmission
changes into models, or other methods
of incorporating forward-looking price
information into FTR collateral
requirements? Should all the RTOs/ISOs
consider implementing minimum
collateral requirements for FTRs?
3. How long should collateral be held
by the RTOs/ISOs? Do any RTOs/ISOs
hold collateral longer than necessary or
not long enough to adequately protect
their markets from the risk of market
participant defaults?
4. Are the forms of collateral currently
accepted by the RTOs/ISOs sufficient?
What are benefits and drawbacks of

through March 30, and release a
minimum bypassed reach flow of 20 cfs
from April 1 through June 15, during the
downstream migration season for
Atlantic Salmon smolts. The project is
operated in a run-of-river mode by
manually raising and lowering the
spillway slide gate, and removing/
adding stop logs to the stanchion bays
to pass flows and maintain a constant
impoundment water surface elevation.
Downstream fish passage is provided
through the sluiceway. The average
annual generation of the project is
approximately 650 megawatt-hours.
New Hampshire Renewable is not
proposing any new project facilities or
changes in project operation.

Any late-filed motion to intervene must show good cause for being late
and must explain why the time limitation should be waived and provide
justification by reference to factors set forth in Rule 214(d) of the
Commission's Rules and Regulations. A person obtaining party status
will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies (paper or electronic) of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties.
Comments
Any person wishing to comment on the project may do so. The
Commission considers all comments received about the project in
determining the appropriate action to be taken. To ensure that your
comments are timely and properly recorded, please submit your comments
on or before April 19, 2021. The filing of a comment alone will not
serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. To become a party,
you must intervene in the proceeding.

comments. In both instances, please reference the Project docket number
