RE:
Standards for Business Practices of Interstate Natural Gas Pipelines (Docket No. RM 96-1 et al)
Dear Ms. Bose:
The North American Energy Standards Board ("NAESB") herewith submits this report to the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission ("FERC" or "Commission") regarding NAESB’s activities from October 2009 to January
2011 with respect to the adoption of Version 2.0 of the NAESB Wholesale Gas Quadrant (“WGQ”) standards. The
NAESB WGQ Version 2.0 standards were ratified by the WGQ membership and were published February 10, 2011,
and are provided herein and include minor corrections applied on January 2 and February 3, 2011. An executive
summary of the changes which resulted in Version 2.0 is included in the attached report, along with a list of the
standards that were created or modified as part of Version 2.0.
Some of the standards development activity undertaken that produced Version 2.0 had considerable industry debate
before an agreement was reached on the level of standardization needed and the actual text of the standards
themselves. NAESB supports a wide range of perspectives through a public process permitting all segments of the
marketplace to equally voice their positions. As part of that process, balanced voting allows a disparate group to
move towards consensus.
All requests for new standards or modifications to existing standards and requests for interpretation are posted on the
NAESB home page. All work papers and recommendations from subcommittees and task forces regarding the
requests are also posted on the NAESB home page (www.naesb.org). The task forces and subcommittees are where
requests are addressed and recommended standards are formulated. Participation and voting in NAESB at the
subcommittee and task force level is open to any interested party regardless of membership. Should a participant be
unable to attend a meeting where a request of interest is discussed, the party may prepare written comments, which
will be posted as work papers for the subcommittee or task force.
The Executive Committee meetings where these standards were discussed and adopted took place from October
2009 to October 2010. The minutes of these meetings are provided as links, which include the voting records of the
Executive Committee. The ratification ballots and member ratification voting record results are also included as
links. All comments that were filed on the standards as part of the NAESB formal comment period are also included
as links.
The cover letter, report and enclosures are being filed electronically as a single document in Microsoft® Word® 2003
and also in Adobe Acrobat® Portable Document Format (.pdf), with each enclosure bookmarked separately. The
filing is also available on the NAESB web site (www.naesb.org). Please feel free to call me at (713) 356-0060 or
refer to the NAESB website (www.naesb.org) should you have any questions or need additional information
regarding the NAESB WGQ Version 2.0 standards.

Report of the North American Energy Standards Board
Version 2.0 of the NAESB Wholesale Gas Quadrant Standards
March 4, 2011
This report is intended solely as a status report from NAESB regarding Version 2.0 of its standards. NAESB does
not advocate that the Commission take a particular position on any of the issues presented.
VERSION 2.0 SUMMARY
Presented here is a summary of the activities8 that led to the compilation of the NAESB WGQ Standards
Version 2.0. All references in this summary pertain only to the WGQ. Supporting documents can be found in
appendices A, B, C, D, E and F as enclosures to this report. All Version 2.0 standards that were added or modified
are contained in a table following this summary. The table cross references the standards to the related requests for
development and the actions that were taken.
Several of the development efforts in NAESB reflect the work of multiple quadrant or market interests.
For example, the change of the term Power Plant Operator to Power Plant Gas Coordinator, as well as minor
corrections to the joint effort related to the e-Tariff standards. These cross-quadrant collaborations are not only
permitted in the NAESB process, but also encouraged when standards are applicable to multiple markets. With
multiple quadrants joint development, the groups work together to ensure that the standards developed are consistent
and there is the added benefit that the standards are vetted in a broader community.
Some of the standards development activity undertaken that produced Version 2.0 had considerable
industry debate before an agreement was reached on the level of standardization needed and the actual text of the
standards themselves. The NAESB process supports a wide range of perspectives, and through a public process
permitting all segments of the marketplace to voice equally their issues, balanced voting allows a disparate group to
move toward consensus. As such, NAESB was able to produce standards to support the customer security
administration (CSA) process, Electronic Delivery Mechanism (EDM), Gas-Electric Interdependency, the FERC
Strategic Plan and technical standards.
Much of the effort that comprised the changes for Version 2.0 was classified as maintenance. This work,
exacting and detailed, is crucial to ensuring that the large body of standards applicable to the WGQ reflect current
market practices. Often, maintenance does not have the panache or attraction of new development, but that does not
detract from its importance. Without the maintenance of the standard transactions – the information requirements,
coding, formatting, mapping and usage, the transactions would become out-dated – not reflective of new or modified
services. From the explanations shown below for the types of maintenance undertaken, the introduction of a new or
modified service, the addition of specificity, or more functionality translates into changes to data sets that describe a
transaction.
The summary is organized into seven sections: Standards to support Gas Electric Interdependency,
Capacity Release re-design due to elimination of EDI for Capacity Release Upload Transactions, standards to
support CSA Process, standards to support EDM, standards drafted in response to FERC strategic plan, maintenance
and minor corrections. Descriptions of each grouping are shown below:

Report of the North American Energy Standards Board
Version 2.0 of the NAESB Wholesale Gas Quadrant Standards
March 4, 2011
Standards to Support Gas-Electric Interdependency
The standards to support gas-electric interdependency originated from Request No. R08020 and provide for
enhanced granularity for public utilities identifying critical operational flow orders. The final action modifies
NAESB WGQ Standard Nos. 4.3.28, 4.3.29, 5.3.38 and modifies the data elements, technical implementation and
code values for WGQ Standard No. 5.4.16. The final action also adds two new standards, NAESB WGQ Standard
Nos. 5.3.70 and 5.3.71. The modifications resulted in an additional 15 notice types and modified the Technical
Implementation of Business Processes and sample paper transaction. The changes were made to allow
Transportation Service Providers the flexibility to communicate additional clarity beyond the currently defined
notice types. The recommendation was adopted by the WGQ EC on February 4, 2010 and ratified by membership
on June 23, 2010.
Standards created for Capacity Release re-design due to elimination of EDI for Capacity Release Upload
Transactions
WGQ 2010 Annual Plan Item 3, related to the standards created for Capacity Release re-design due to the
elimination of EDI for Capacity Release Upload, was approved by the WGQ EC on August 19, 2010 and ratified by
membership on September 27, 2010. The standards add three additional Capacity Release related standards – WGQ
Standard Nos. 5.3.70, 5.3.71 and 5.3.72. They also add four new Capacity Release related standards data sets,
NAESB WGQ Standard No. 5.4.24 – Offer, WGQ Standard No. 5.4.25 – Bid, WGQ Standard No. 5.4.26 – Award
Download, and WGQ Standard No. 5.4.27 – Withdrawal Download. They delete 14 Capacity Release related
standards data sets, WGQ Standards No.s 5.4.1, 5.4.2, 5.4.3, 5.4.4, 5.4.5, 5.4.6, 5.4.7, 5.4.8, 5.4.9, 5.4.10, 5.4.11,
5.4.12, 5.4.18, and 5.4.19. Through this significant effort, the electronic transactions in support of the capacity
release program are streamlined.
Standards to support Electronic Delivery Mechansim (EDM)
The standards to support EDM originated from 2010 WGQ Annual Plan Item 5, and Request Nos. R09025 and
R10001. 2010 WGQ Annual Plan Item 5 modifies the Quadrant Electronic Delivery Mechanism (QEDM) Manual,
in particular it modifies the technical charactersitics set forth in Appendices B, C and D. Request No. R09025
modifies WGQ Standard Nos. 4.3.101 and 4.3.102. Request No. R10001 updates the NAESB WGQ QEDM
Manual to add the ability to provide Informational Postings report downloads in a comma-seperated-value (CSV)
file format. The recommendations were adopted by the WGQ EC on August 19, 2010 and ratified by membership
on September 27, 2010. These changes were undertaken to ensure NAESB’s technical standards remain current.
Standards to support Customer Security Administration (CSA) Process
The customer security administration process standard originated from Request No. R08008 and WGQ 2010 Annual
Plan Item 4 and added NAESB WGQ Standard No. 4.3.100, which reflects the ability of Service Requesters to
obtain security information for that party’s users that have access to the Tranportation Service Provider’s system..
The standard was approved by the WGQ EC on August 19, 2010 and ratified by membership on September 27,
2010.
Standards drafted in response to FERC strategic plan
Page 3of 61
Report of the North American Energy Standards Board
Version 2.0 of the NAESB Wholesale Gas Quadrant Standards
March 4, 2011
The standards modifications originating from Request No. R09014 and WGQ 2010 Annual Plan Item 6 are related
to the 2010 FERC strategic plan. The modification to WGQ Standard No. 4.3.23 adds “Regulatory (when
applicable) and subcategories “Waste Heat” as well as identifying when the new “Regulatory” category is
applicable. The standards were approved by the WGQ EC on October 5, 2010 and ratified by membership on
November 5, 2010.
Maintenance
Work continues on requests to create new, modify existing, or delete existing business practices,
information requirements, code value assignments, technical implementation and mapping or interpretations. Such
work is classified and assigned by business function to more efficiently process the requests through the various
subcommittees and task forces.
Modifications of the standards were undertaken to more accurately reflect the workings of the market and specific
efforts are noted below:
•
R99033/R96018/R04038 – The standards delete NAESB WGQ Standard Nos. 5.3.17 and 5.4.13.

Table to delete the one and add the two new proposed and data sets discussed above:
• Additional Standards Manual
• Nominations Related Standards Manual
• Flowing Gas Related Standards Manual
• Invoicing Related Standards Manual
• Capacity Release Related Standards Manual
The standards were approved by the WGQ EC on August 19, 2010 and ratified by membership on
September 27, 2010.
•
R09006 – The standards modify the definition for the data element Service Requestor Contract
Number in NAESB WGQ Standard No. 3.4.1 and modify the Service Requestor Level Charge /
Allowance Invoice for NAESB WGQ Standard No. 3.4.4. The standards were approved by the

NAESB WGQ Standard Nos. 0.3.11, 0.3.12, 0.3.13, 0.3.14 and 0.3.15 to conform with the above
definition changes. The standards were accepted by the WGQ EC on June 4, 2010 and ratified by
membership on July 15, 2010. The purpose of this change is to provide enough distinction between
the NAESB and NERC terms to avoid confusion between a NAESB Power Plant Operator and the
NERC Generator Operator.
•
R09001 – The standards modify NAESB WGQ Standard No. 5.4.22 – Transactional Reporting –
Interruptible Transportation as follows:
•

Version Cross Reference:
The Version Cross Reference lists each NAESB standard number followed by four columns. The column
entitled “Adopted” identifies for which version the standard was adopted. The column entitled “revised” identifies
versions where the standard was revised. The column entitled “interpreted version” identifies versions where the
standard was interpreted. The last column “interpretation Number” identifies the interpretations number for the
version specified in the previous column. The language of the standards themselves can be accessed from the
NAESB home page (www.naesb.org). With the Version Cross Reference, a determination can be made of all
standards that were created, changed or interpreted for a given version.
For standards that were created in Version 2.0, the “Adopted” column will contain the value “2.0.” For
standards that were modified in Version 2.0, the “revised” column will contain the value “2.0.” A standard may
have multiple revisions specified. For standards that were interpreted in Version 2.0, the Interpreted Version”
column will include the value “2.0” and the “Interpretation Number” column will contain the related interpretation
number. A standard may have multiple interpretations specified. The Version Cross Reference also contains
models, which are not standards. Models can be determined by the second of the three numbers, which make up a
standard number. Models are numbered “x.5.z”, following the above numbering convention.
The versions noted in the version cross reference are:

Version 2.0 of the NAESB Wholesale Gas Quadrant Standards
Appendix D: NAESB Process to Develop and Adopt Standards
March 4, 2011
The NAESB Standards Development Process
NAESB is focused on proposing, considering, and adopting voluntary standards and model business practices
that will have a significant and lasting impact on all aspects of the natural gas and electricity marketplaces. As a
result of the standards NAESB adopts, it is expected that the industry will operate more efficiently and effectively,
benefiting both the industry and its customers. At the same time, it must be acknowledged that NAESB standards
may constitute a change in the way parties do business, with an accompanying effect on the use and allocation of
resources.
NAESB’s policy is to move at a deliberate pace, consistent with its annual plan(s), thus permitting those
affected by its standards, especially those standards adopted as regulations by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC) or other regulatory bodies, to assimilate them as part of their business practices. To this end,
NAESB will carefully consider whether proposed standards are both timely and necessary. In particular, it will try to
avoid adopting and implementing new standards, however beneficial, before the industry is able to reasonably make
use of them.
The standards development process is governed by the annual plan, and items can be included in the plan or
modified only with Board approval. The plan typically reflects requests from NAESB members, government
agencies, and other interested parties. In approving the annual plan, the Board considers the availability of resources,
including the NAESB budget and staff and the availability of industry volunteers. New requests received throughout
the year are either considered part of the existing annual plan or as new items that require Board approval.
The standards development process begins with an annual plan item or a triaged and approved request. Triage is
a process used by each quadrant of the Executive Committee (EC) to determine whether a request is within scope,
which quadrant(s) it applies to, which subcommittee(s) it should be referred to, and what priority it should be
assigned. Triage is carried out by EC members appointed by the EC chair. Triage recommendations are submitted to
the en banc EC and require EC approval, and may also require Board approval if there are scope questions or if a
modification of the annual plan is required.
Once the triage process is completed, the subcommittees—more than one are normally involved in standards
recommendations—review the request, compare it to existing standards, and prepare recommendations that may
take the form of new or modified standards or interpretations. Participation in EC subcommittees is open to any
interested party regardless of membership status. All subcommittee participants may vote; voting is balanced by
segment and quadrant. All votes are public.
When the recommendation is complete, it is made available for a thirty-day industry comment period. The
recommendation and comments are then forwarded to the EC, which considers the recommendation, makes any
changes it deems necessary, and takes a vote. A recommendation must receive an affirmative vote of at least 67
percent from each applicable quadrant EC and 40 percent from each of the segments of the applicable quadrant(s).
After passage by the EC, the recommendation must be ratified by the NAESB members. An affirmative vote of
67 percent of the members of the applicable quadrant(s) is required for ratification. After ratification, standards and
modifications are considered final actions and will be published in the next version of NAESB standards.
All NAESB quadrants follow the same development process described herein. The process has been followed
by the WGQ since 1994 and has been used to develop more than five hundred standards that have been incorporated
by reference into federal regulations.

Appendix D: NAESB Process to Develop and Adopt Standards
March 4, 2011
Flexibility
NAESB recognizes that flexibility is necessary as standards are developed to address regional concerns or to
incorporate variances to accommodate operational or structural differences. Several WEQ standards incorporate
regional or operational differences for both Version 0 and Version 1. There is a high threshold for incorporating
such variances in a standard; the subcommittee(s) in drafting the standard, the EC in approving the subcommittee
recommendation, and the membership in approving the standard must all agree that such variance is necessary.
Nonetheless, NAESB procedures are well suited to take into account operational and regional differences.
Transparency
All NAESB meetings are open for attendance and participation by any interested party, with the exception of
executive sessions of the Board or Managing Committee for purposes of discussing personnel, compensation or
legal issues. Meeting announcements and agendas are posted in advance to permit the widest possible participation.
Conference-calling capability is available for all meetings and web casting is available for most. Those intending to
attend a meeting in person or by telephone are asked to notify NAESB by a specific date to permit adequate meeting
planning.
Transcripts are made of all Board of Directors and EC meetings, and may also be made of other meetings that
are expected to be controversial. Transcripts are maintained in the NAESB office and are provided to regulatory
agencies for their internal use. All other interested parties can purchase transcripts from the relevant transcription
service.
Coordination with NERC
For business practice standards development for the WEQ, if it is determined by NERC and NAESB Executive
Management that joint development is needed by NERC and NAESB, the NERC-NAESB Coordination Joint
Development Process is implemented.1 This process requires that the appropriate NAESB Subcommittee and
NERC Standards drafting team work together to develop reliability standards and business practices.
The Joint Interface Committee of NAESB, NERC and the ISO-RTO Council (“JIC”) was dissolved as part of
the agreement to create the Independent Grid Operator segment of the WEQ. The joint development process
between NAESB and NERC is being used to ensure appropriate coordination. The ISOs and RTOs have strong
decision-making roles in both NERC and NAESB, and thus with the use of the joint development process, the JIC
was no longer necessary.
Accessibility of Standards and Work Products
The NAESB standards and protected work products are accessible to members at no cost as a benefit of their
membership. Non-members can purchase the standards as a full version, or they can purchase individual final
actions. Non-members can also access the standards at no cost by requesting an evaluation copy. NAESB standards
and protected work products are copyrighted. Non-members can download a NAESB materials order form from the
NAESB web site for ordering standards or for instructions on accessing standards for evaluation.

The NERC-NAESB Coordination Joint Development Process was submitted to the Commission on February 17, 2006 in Attachment C of the
Progress Report on NAESB Activities impacting Docket No. RM05-5-000, “Standards for Business Practices and Communication Protocols for
Public Utilities”: http://www.naesb.org/doc_view2.asp?doc=ferc021706.pdf.

with pipeline proposals that have been accepted. It would not be appropriate for the Commission here to try to provide
generic clarification to cover all possible proposals by pipelines for according flexibility to shippers. These proposals
will have to be judged on an individual basis. In addition, NAESB can consider through its consensus process possible
standards for according increased receipt and delivery point flexibility.”(emphasis added)

The translation of business
practices to usable
uniform business
transactions is
accomplished through the
definition of information
requirements for the data,
and mapping of that data
into specific electronic
transactions. This
translation is performed
by IR and Technical
subcommittees and
completes the standards
development process,
often referred to as “full
staffing.” Both IR and
Technical work in tandem
to complete this crucial
technical implementation
activity. Until these steps
have been completed, the
process is incomplete, and
in many cases, the
business practices cannot
be used.

Procedures for Minor Corrections as excerpted from the NAESB Operating Procedures
D. Minor Clarifications and Corrections to Standards
Minor clarifications and corrections to existing standards include: (a) clarifications or
corrections made by a regulatory agency to standards that are of a jurisdictional nature, or by
the American National Standards Institute or its successor; (b) clarifications or corrections to
the format, appearance, or descriptions of standards in standards documentation; (c)
clarifications or corrections to add code values to tables; and (d) clarifications and corrections
that do not materially change a standard.
Any request for a minor clarification or correction to an existing standard should be submitted
in writing to the executive director. This request shall include a description of the minor
clarification or correction and the reason the clarification or correction should be implemented.
