The NYISO, by correspondence dated October 4, 2018, declared this Market Participant in default, as defined in Section 7.5.1 of the Services Tariff and Section 2.7.5.1 of the OATT, for failure to comply with the NYISO’s creditworthiness requirements, and the Market Participant remains in default under the NYISO’s tariffs.
