Alternative dispute resolution committee tariff amendment

The California ISO tariff places responsibility for administering and coordinating the ISO's process for alternative dispute resolution (ADR) with a committee of the Board of Governors. The committee is required to maintain lists of arbitrators and mediators, process and publish information about ADR activities and compile procedures for arbitration. The purpose of this stakeholder process is to consider a tariff amendment that would – consistent with the practices of other ISOs and RTOs – relieve the ISO Board of alternative dispute resolution responsibility and place it under management's supervision.
