A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING THE
CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO THE THIRD
AMENDED AND RESTATED NORTHERN CALIFORNIA POWER AGENCY
METERED SUBSYSTEM AGGREGATOR AGREEMENT
WHEREAS, the Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) Pool Members and the California
Independent System Operator (CAISO) are signatories to the Third Amended and Restated NCPA
Metered Subsystem Aggregator Agreement (MSSAA), which establishes the rules and requirements for
how NCPA and the NCPA Pool Members, acting as load following metered subsystem entities, perform
scheduling and settlement functions in the CAISO markets, and the City of Lodi is an NCPA Pool Member
and a signatory to the MSSAA; and
WHEREAS, in response to Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Order 764, the
CAISO is implementing a new Fifteen Minute Market (FMM) scheduling and settlement process, and the
FMM is slated to become active in May 2014; and
WHEREAS, among other changes, the FMM will replace the Hour Ahead Scheduling Process
(HASP), thereby removing barriers to the integration of variable energy resources; and
WHEREAS, as a result, various sections of the MSSAA that currently reference the HASP need to
be updated to reference the FMM; and
WHEREAS, such changes will ensure the MSSAA remains consistent with current business
practices and terminology used in the CAISO Tariff; and
WHEREAS, it is also recommended that approval of future administrative changes such as these
to the MSSAA be delegated to the Electric Utility Director with direction from the Risk Oversight
Committee (ROC); and
WHEREAS, the ROC received a report on this agenda item and recommends City Council
approval.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby authorize the City
Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Third Amended and Restated Northern California Power
Agency Metered Subsystem Aggregator Agreement (MSSAA); and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council hereby authorizes the Electric Utility
Director to approve future administrative changes to the MSSAA with direction from the Risk Oversight
Committee.
