This might enable us to get the type of netting and trading we want ($ vs. volumes) for both shipper and operator imbalances at least until the GISB standards of netting and trading are approved.

They also argued that imbalances should not be dollar valued before netting and trading are available, but that strikes me as an industry wid e policy issue and not a TW specific issue. Any other thoughts?

The gist of PNM's protest in RP00-626 is that we shouldn't be able to charge a transport or fuel fee for our imbalance netting and trading service. I agree with PNM that our tariff language is vague in this regard. What exactly do we mean by "no additional cost...unless through the allocation process, quantities may be subject to transportation and fuel"?? Can someone help me with this? Since we really did not want to make this compliance filing anyway, I would say we probably wouldn't mind if FERC rejected our tariff sheet outright. However, it's more likely that they will just instruct us to clarify our language. Or they could tell us to remove the "subject to transportation and fuel" provision. If we want to preserve our right to charge transport and fuel, it might be worthwhile filing something in the way of an answer. However, I am going to need some assistance in understanding what the language means and why we think we can do it, so I can justify it to FERC. Any comments you have in this regard would be appreicated.

Did we already respond to this issue when they filed their protest of the 637 filing? DF
