The California ISO has posted new proposed revision requests (PRRs) reflecting edits to Business Practice Manuals (BPM).
The PRRs were submitted to provide clarity regarding the must-offer obligation and related issues for RA resources whose must-offer obligation is defined in Tariff section 40.6.4. They also provide more detail about what resources qualify for the must-offer obligation described in that tariff section. The PRRs will be discussed during the BPM change management monthly meeting on July 30, 2019. Read the July 16 market notice for meeting details.
All PRRs and related activity are publicly available through the BPM change management site at http://bpmcm.caiso.com/Pages/default.aspx.
The PRRs listed below have an open 10-business day comment or appeal period from July 18, 2019 through August 1. These PRRs will be discussed during the July 30 BPM change management monthly meeting.

ISO Final Decisions
There are no PRRs to report.
The ISO may unilaterally make and implement revisions to the BPMs in emergency circumstances, as set forth in Sections 22.4.3 and 22.11 of the ISO Tariff and in Section 2.6 of the Business Practice Manual for BPM Change Management. An emergency PRR will continue through the BPM change management stakeholder process to obtain stakeholder input on the revisions and make other recommendations, as necessary.
Please note that affected parties must register in order to submit a PRR or written comments.
More information on the BPM change management process is available on the ISO website at http://www.caiso.com/rules/Pages/BusinessPracticeManuals/Default.aspx.
