The California ISO announces that the Western Energy Imbalance Market (WEIM) Nominating Committee has started its process to nominate a slate of candidates for WEIM Governing Body seats with terms scheduled to expire in 2024. An updated list of WEIM Nominating Committee members has been posted to the WEIM Governance webpage and reflects some new members.

According to the Selection Policy for the WEIM Governing Body, the Nominating Committee must convene no less than 100 days prior to the scheduled expiration of any WEIM Governing Body member’s term to begin the process of identifying potential candidates for the seat.

The Nominating Committee must take the following steps to identify a candidate(s) to bring to the WEIM Governing Body for approval in a general session meeting:

• Determine if the WEIM Governing Body member whose term is scheduled to expire has expressed a desire to be nominated for a new term, and if so, decide whether to re-nominate the departing member without interviewing other candidates.
• If the Nominating Committee does not decide to proceed in this manner, then it should ask the Executive Search Firm to identify at least two qualified candidates per open seat to interview.

WEIM Governing Body members Rob Kondziolka and Rebecca Wagner, whose terms are scheduled to expire on June 30, 2024, have each expressed their interest in being re-nominated to the WEIM Governing Body.  The Nominating Committee has started its process and scheduled discussions to determine its next steps. 

Current members of the Nominating Committee are:
