As a result of the Maximum Import Capability (MIC) stabilization and multi-year allocation stakeholder process, the California Independent System Operator Corporation (CAISO) it is revising its available import capability allocation process in order to allow load serving entities to reserve import capability at the intertie level on a multi-year basis, consistent with their long-term import contracts, during each annual import capability allocation process. In addition, the CAISO proposes to revise its existing import allocation process to allocate Remaining Import Capability consistent with Load Share Quantity and to increase transparency by publishing information regarding import capability allocations at each Intertie.
