It would remain in place for the near term (through Summer, 2001 and beyond) and includes changes to existing ISO practices as well as an expansion of the ISO's responsibilities. Because of the need to move quickly so that the plan can be implemented by this summer, we will be unable to hold a full stakeholder review process. But, we do want to discuss the plan with you so that you can understand the proposal and the reasoning behind it. The ISO will post this plan on the ISO web site at http://www.caiso.com/stakeholders/ , by COB tomorrow. In addition, we will host a conference call from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. PST this Friday, March 9, to discuss the plan with you and clarify any outstanding issues. We then plan to request the Board's approval for this plan on March 15th in order to be able to implement the plan by summer. The call in information is as follows: Market Stabilization Conference Call Friday, March 9, 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. PST Call-In Number: 877-381-6005 Conference ID #: 760357 Leader Name: Byron Woertz Following the call, you may submit any comments on the plan to us by close of business on Tuesday, March 13. You may send your comments to bwoertz@caiso.com. We will do our best to summarize your comments and present them to the Board at their March 15 meeting. In addition, there will be a public comment period on the 15th. Please contact me if you have any further questions. Byron B. Woertz, Jr. Director, Client Relations (916) 608-7066
