(I replied and told them to correct the address.) Let me know if this is OK. I don't know if we can find a cheaper place, but if you think this rate is too high I can try. Also, I made reservations to go to Burbank on Dec. 31 using Southwest Airlines and leaving from Oakland at 10:40 am, arriving at 11:40. Returning on Jan. 1 at 8:15 pm and arriving at 9:20. However, I learned from Cameron that all but your mother and I will be going on Dec. 30 so I will cancel that part of the reservation. I don't know what your plans are for returning so I will not be making any other reservations unless I hear from you. I originally made the returning reservation at the time I did so that if we came back to the house on Monday to watch football games and play games we would have some time to do that. If we don't do that we could possibly get an earlier flight back. Your mother doesn't want to come back too late, so your mother and I couldn't possibly watch a movie if Hef has one planned for later, but you might consider that possibility. Our check-in time at the W is 3:00 pm, possibly earlier. I assume you got my message left on the answering machine that everyone has been invited to the party. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, December 20, 2000 6:08 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Reservation Confirmation =====================================

Let me know if you think someone will have the time to generate an answer to this question...obviously it is NOT a rush.

We will be visiting Santa Cruz in April on an educational research visit and are focussing our research on the current Californian energy crisis. One aspect that we are considering looking at is effect of the energy crisis on the high-tech industries in and around Santa Cruz. However, the information available at present is limited. Therefore, we would appreciate any help or advise you could give us or pass this e-mail on to somebody else who may be able to assist us. Has the energy crisis reached Santa Cruz or Silicon Valley yet and if so has it/will have any affect on the high-tech industries? Have any measures been taken to mitigate its effects or is it of no concern? We understand that you are very busy but would appreciate any feedback on this subject that you may be able to give us. Thank you for your time and we look forward to hearing from you. Eddie Ping, Martin Price & Ric Mason =====================================

Between ENA and EES, we sell gas to core and non-core customers, and also have gas in storage as well as in the park and lend service. I think we can be sympathetic to the ORA argument that the diversion tariff penalties did not anticipate OFOs and EFOs in situations such as we face here (shortages due to credit problems rather than lack of supply). Assessing extreme penalties, as the OFO/EFOs would do, on users who are not perfectly imbalance under this situation certainly seems unfair. However, I think we should argue that limiting the payments to shippers/customers whose gas is diverted to serve core customers to a market index may not fully compensate for the diversion. The pay back specifically does not include interstate pipeline charges, and there may be other costs as well to the marketer/customer who had supplies taken away. I need an estimate of the cost to make this filing and follow it up for the RCR process, and I would also like any feedback anyone has on what our position should be in this matter. The response is due Friday. =====================================

Gosh I love Jeff Garcia!)... Yes this same guy was begging for Cameron to take the 49ers against Dallas. Begging. Entrapped by the hubris of winning last week, she refused my advise. So, we ended up in 3rd. Oh well. Things could be worse. I just wonder, maybe this is the sign of a true fan, someone who refuses to pick the 49ers for fear that the heart's involved... Nah, I'll still pick 'em, even if I have to beg. Good luck to all, and go 49ers! >Week 4 winners: > >1st place - Nancy - (she says she's always been an Elvis sighter). A huge >jump from #17 to #5.

From the diversity of the group opposing the bill and the fact that the Attorney General and Peace are involved, I recommend that we stay on the sidelines and monitor this. The bill applies to small customers so it does not effect us at present. What are your thoughts? Sue Mara Enron Corp.

The meeting was run by Kay Caldwell on behalf of the Internet Alliance. Kay was the one who contacted Jeff Dodd in Houston who I believe contacted one or both of you. The bill is being opposed by AOL, Microsoft, Charles Schwab, CMTA, Chamber, GTE/Verizon, AEA, Retailers, Financial Services Association and the Internet Alliance. All of those parties are scheduled to meet with Assembly Member Wayne at different times on Wednesday to try and get him to drop the bill which is being sponsored by the Attorney General. In the event that fails, the group is also trying to get the bill double-referred to the Senate Banking Committee where they have a much better chance of stopping it versus the Senate Judiciary Committee. The bill will be heard by the Judiciary Committee on August 21. With respect to Enron's participation in any opposition effort, there was some concern that the Judiciary Committee may not be the best place because Peace is on that committee and would likely do anything to get at Enron (support?). Regardless of anyone's concerns we could submit a letter of opposition so long as someone provides me with the general framework. Please advise. Scott =====================================

The avoided cost posting is based on a Transition Formula adopted in D.96-12-028 that incorporates various border price indices.? On July 28, 2000, SCE filed a petition to modify D.96-12-028 to revise its Transition Formula, claiming that the existing procedure resulted in too high a price. ? The draft?decision issued by Commissioner Wood adopts a formula, to be updated monthly, to revise SCE's factor adopted in D.96-12-028 and adopts an alternative gas index to replace the Topock index adopted in D.96-12-028.? ? However, you may be particularly interested to see that the draft decision also establishes a ceiling price for payments to QFs of $67.45/MWh, based on the reasonableness standard described by the FERC in its 12/15 order. ?

We have included the new national ETI template service descriptions and terms, as well as California specific regulatory language. You will recall that we originally filed "placeholder" tariffs with the ETI CPCN, which were approved with certain required modifications, and these new tariffs will now be ETI's "Initial Tariff" filed at the CPUC.?? Subsequent revisions and updates can be made via Advice Letter. ETI can make the time and materials, special construction, and collo sections "ICB", though we are unsure why ETI would want to include collo in the tariff - this is an item you can discuss with Steve and me. Also, the new "early termination" contract language appears unusual, given especially that your written contracts would cover this, and that an otherwise "verbal" contract would be unenforceable.? It is thus not necessary to include the new contract termination terms in the California tariff. Items for discussion before filing include: There is standard early termination protection language in the tariff, and the new terms may not be necessary; We still need to establish (high) rates for the transport services, and insert the figures. Does ETI want to keep collo in the tariff? We need ETI's operational approval for the Consumer forms previously sent. (The Consumer forms must be attached to the tariff). Please feel free to let me know any questions over the weekend - I can be reached via office voice mail or cell phone (609-2210).? Otherwise we should talk on Monday morning before filing.?

Having said that, there are reports from highly placed staff that an item to implement the AB-1X ban is being held in Bilas' office, as he would like to see the legislative process run its course, but there is a possibility that Lynch will reassign the matter to another commissioner who opposes direct acess (Wood)in an effort to kill DA before any other legislation is passed. Please note: The foregoing is internal speculation/gossip from within the commission, and should not be considered as confirmed. Notwithstanding the controversy over implementing AB 1X, Commissioner Brown has written a letter to Bowen endorsing direct access and her bill, and publicly supported direct access in the Commission meeting today. That means 3 commissioners have voiced support for DA, and only 2 opposed. This again raises doubts over the accuracy of Bowen's statement--which may have been designed to scare opponents into supporting her bill. We are attempting to get a copy of the letter sent by Brown and will forward it to the lobbyists if we obtaining. Stay tuned.

It was in my e-mail this morning. Neapolitan Pork Roast with Potatoes 6 - 8 cloves garlic, finely chopped 2 Tbs (30 ml) chopped fresh sage leaves or 2 tsp (10 ml) dried sage Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 1 boneless pork loin roast, 2 to 3 pounds (1 to 1.5 Kg) 2 lbs (1 Kg) potatoes, cut into 1-inch (3 cm) cubes 2 Tbs (30 ml) olive oil Combine the garlic, sage, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Make holes in the pork roast with a small paring knife and stuff the garlic mixture in the holes with your finger, reserving about 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of the garlic mixture. Rub any remaining garlic mixture on the outside of the roast. Toss the potatoes with the reserved garlic mixture and the olive oil. Place the roast and the potatoes in a roasting pan and place in a preheated 425F (220C) oven. Remove from the oven and stir the potatoes after 30 minutes. Baste the roast with the pan juices and return to the oven. Lower the heat to 325F (160C) and continue to cook, stirring the potatoes and basting the roast about every 15 minutes. Begin checking the internal temperature of the roast after about 1 1/4 hours total cooking time. Remove the roast when the internal temperature is 140F (65C) for meat that is still slightly pink. Let the roast rest for 15 minutes before carving. Return the potatoes to the oven if they are not crisp and golden. Serves 6 to 8.

Between ENA and EES, we sell gas to core and non-core customers, and also have gas in storage as well as in the park and lend service. I think we can be sympathetic to the ORA argument that the diversion tariff penalties did not anticipate OFOs and EFOs in situations such as we face here (shortages due to credit problems rather than lack of supply). Assessing extreme penalties, as the OFO/EFOs would do, on users who are not perfectly imbalance under this situation certainly seems unfair. However, I think we should argue that limiting the payments to shippers/customers whose gas is diverted to serve core customers to a market index may not fully compensate for the diversion. The pay back specifically does not include interstate pipeline charges, and there may be other costs as well to the marketer/customer who had supplies taken away. I need an estimate of the cost to make this filing and follow it up for the RCR process, and I would also like any feedback anyone has on what our position should be in this matter.

The bill was unveiled at a press conference designed to ratchet up pressure on the Bush administration to relent in its opposition to price controls in response to a pending electricity supply crisis in the region this summer. The measure would require the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to limit the prices power suppliers can obtain to their cost of production plus a reasonable rate of return. The bill would allow FERC to determine what rate of return power providers could obtain. The cost-based price controls would remain in effect until March 1, 2003. The bill also targets a FERC decision deemed to be exacerbating California's electricity crisis by driving up natural gas costs in the state. It would require FERC to end a temporary suspension of a natural gas transportation rate cap for sales into California. The bill would mandate that natural gas providers disclose to FERC commodity and transportation prices for sales into California. =====================================

Subject: Report on Environmental Justice Hearing Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/1445. ===================================== Senator Richard Alarcon held a select committee hearing today on implementation of SB 115 (Solis) related to an environmental justice policy for the state. Most of the hearing was devoted to testimony from the Office of Planning and Research, CalEPA, the Air Resources Board, and others. There was, however, a very interesting exchange between Senator Alarcon and CEC Commissioner Bob Laurie. AB 970 includes a provision indicating that projects subject to the six month siting process must comply with "all regulations adopted by the commission that ensure that an application addressees disproportionate impacts in a manner consistent" with environmental justice direction to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research contained in Government Code Section 65040.12. During today's hearing, Senator Alarcon indicated that he believes that AB 970 requires compliance with federal environmental justice guidelines before a power plant can be sited. Senator Alarcon argues further that the CEC must adopt regulations to implement the federal environmental justice guidelines in order to implement the expedited power plant siting process. He also indicated today in his hearing that AB 970 goes far beyond SB 1622, which would have required the CEC to adopt environmental justice regulations, and was defeated earlier this year. The CEC (Commissioner Bob Laurie) responded that AB 970 provides for a six-month process for a negative declaration of environmental impacts, including environmental justice matters. According to the CEC, the environmental justice issue must be addressed in regulations implementing the 6-month process but that the CEC is cautious about moving ahead of the OPR process. That's because the OPR process will apply to all agencies, including the CEC. As a result, the CEC must implement environmental justice policies in a conservative fashion. In an exchange with Commissioner Laurie, Senator Alarcon conceded that the CEC could not move too far ahead of everyone else. At the same time, he indicated that he believes that the CEC's work will become a model for other agency action. Karen Edson [email protected] 916/552-7070 =====================================

Are they talking about the same period during which gas costs were supposed to have been so unreasonably, and allegedly illegally, high due to the actions of those greedy Texas energy firms? NGI's Daily Gas Price Index published : August 10, 2001 SoCalGas Posts $223 Million in Gas-Cost Savings California regulators may be scratching their heads about what to do with gas purchasing incentives for the state's major utilities following Southern California Gas Co.'s filing that claims its purchases over a 12-month period ending last June were $223 million below market prices. It was the "largest amount of savings on gas costs during any one-year period in our 134-year history" of SoCalGas, which is owned by San Diego-based Sempra Energy, according to Anne Smith, a vice president quoted in a report to the company's employees. Under a regulator-approved "gas cost incentive mechanism (GCIM) that has been in place in recent years, the utility can apply a formula allowing it to share the savings between customers and shareholders." It's an incentive to the utility "to take reasonable risks to keep gas costs low, while ensuring a reliable supply," SoCalGas's director of gas acquisition, Jim Harrigan, told employees in the recent report. With this relatively embarrassing "windfall" for shareholders, the utility recommended to the California Public Utilities Commission in June two options for spreading the wealth: 1. Give shareholders a relatively modest $30.8 million and make the utility's proposed adjustments to the GCIM program in future years. The modifications were agreed to many months ago in a settlement among SoCalGas; the CPUC; the Office of Ratepayer Advocates (ORA); and the statewide utility consumer group TURN (The Utility Reform Network); or 2. Award $106 million to the utility's shareholders, which is what SoCalGas says is the shareholders' share under the current GCIM formula. Both options carry proposed rate increases to implement them. The first would necessitate a 44 cents/month increase for a 12-month period, while the second alternative would require a $1.52/month hike for one year. =====================================

Let me try to fill in the blanks. First, the interview lasted almost 45 minutes of actual camera time. Of course, the news media took their usually advantage of editing "for their agenda" what they wanted. The risk you take in any situation like this. During the course of the interview, I made it quite clear that it would be a mistake to lay California's current natural gas problems on the doorstep of deregulation. No one should question I am strongly in favor of gas deregulation in the state. On a more direct point, Mr. Vacar was clearly trying to get me to confirm what he had already been told before my interview that the culprit here was Enron Online. I disagreed with that conclusion yesterday and this morning. About 1/2 hour ago, Mr. Vacar phone me to presumably find out what natural gas prices where doing in the spot market. He quickly brought the conversation back to Enron Online. I told him that it would be a mistake to blame these current day prices on Enron Online. While it is convenient for some to look for a simple singular answer or someone to blame, the answer isn't Enron Online. He went on to reason that Enron is such a large energy company they could conceivably "do this". I responded that would also be a mistake. I acknowledged Enron as a large player but in no way capable of running up California Gas prices because of some "perceived dominance". Yesterday, I shared my concern that Mr. Vacar was directing his inquiries toward Enron with Mr. Fawcett. Obviously , I reserve my right to call them like I see them independent from anyone of my clients own agendas and will continue to do so. The source of potential allegations against Enron isn't me. If I can clarify anything else let me know. Mark, IGS =====================================

Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/inbox/273. ===================================== As you may know, the PUC suspended direct access yesterday but did not do so retroactively. With the 2001 legislative session now over with little resolved, our attention and advocacy will increasing go the PUC. See below. Justin California Takes Step to Reregulate Power By REUTERS AN FRANCISCO, Sept 20 (Reuters) ? State utility regulators revoked the right of Californians to choose their power provider today, tossing out the centerpiece of the state's failed effort to deregulate its electricity industry. The California Public Utilities Commission voted 3 to 2 to immediately suspend consumers' direct access to independent power retailers. The move makes it easier for the state to use revenue from retail power sales to finance a record $12.5 billion bond issue this year. The department was chosen in January to secure electricity for most of California's 34 million residents after soaring wholesale power prices drained the state's two biggest utilities of their cash and credit. "Direct access is one half of a failed and collapsed deregulation project," a commissioner, Carl Wood, said today. Mr. Wood said the other half of the problem was the law's retail rate cap, which blocked utilities from passing on the cost of power to customers, incorrectly assuming wholesale prices would fall. When energy supplies tightened and prices soared, the state's largest utility, Pacific Gas and Electric Company , a unit of PG&E Corporation , and Edison International 's Southern California Edison had to absorb $13 billion in unanticipated costs. Direct access was never a big hit. Despite an $80 million advertising and public relations campaign to educate Californians about deregulation and retail choice, most customers stayed with their local utilities. Big businesses and industrial customers, however, made deals with energy companies for cheap bulk power and wanted them to continue. The utility commission estimated that 5 percent of the state's peak electricity demand of 46,000 megawatts is in direct access contracts. About 10,000 businesses that signed new deals this summer, when wholesale power prices dropped, will be able to keep their contracts. =====================================

Subject: California LNG Project Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/11985. ===================================== This afternoon I met with Kurt Lindahl and Jody Crook (Global Energy Markets) concerning a proposal to bring LNG into California. The project consists of converting an oil tanker into a floating vaporization facility, anchoring it off the coast of California and constructing a subsea pipeline to bring the gas onshore. The facility would have a daily unloading rate of 500,000 mmbtu/d. Approximately 172,000 mmbtu/d would go directly to market, with the remainder being injected into utility storage facilities for ultimate withdrawal prior to arrival of a new shipment of LNG. The goal is to baseload a market of 172,000 mmbtu/d. The project would have a start-up date in early 2003. While other proposals are being considered to bring LNG into California, the Enron proposal is unique in that it is considering onshore gas storage vs offshore LNG storage. Retrofitting the oil tanker takes approximately 18 months. Constructing an offshore LNG storage facility would take 3 years - providing Enron a competitive advantage with respect to timing. To protect this competitive advantage during the development stage of the project, it has been requested that this particular aspect be kept confidential as long as possible. Kurt and Jody have meetings scheduled next week in California with at least two utilities to discuss operational and tariff considerations associated with the utilities' providing storage service. I am providing analysis of SoCalGas's storage tariff and have been requested to review ts reflection in the economic modeling of the project. Other regulatory support I assume would be required with respect to FERC and or CPUC authorizations. Jeff, is this something that can be woven into the overall California Solutions proposal, and, how would this fit into the discussions currently ongoing with respect to adequacy of the California gas delivery infrastucture. As this proposal would deliver gas closer to market (as oppossed to gas coming from the west) some savings in term of capital and fuel could be realized. Kurt has offered to provide a more detailed briefing of the proposal at our request. =====================================

Any proposal should address the three messages of this report 1) Eliminate mandatory UDC day ahead purchase requirement from PX (this may allow generators to exercise mkt power during time periods of high demand) and allow utilities to hedge forward purchases in bilateral markets at shareholder risk, 2) Provide demand price signals in PG&E/SCE service territories ASAP but no later than 10/1/2001 and 3) eliminate incentive for large SCs to under schedule in ISO real time market (adopt ISO proposals for imbalances in excess of 250 MW per hour).

Subject: Large Customers' Response to Hertzberg Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/13286. ===================================== To add to Bev's comments, I've gotten many calls from large customers today. I'll be meeting with them in Sacramento on Monday to discuss the core/noncore structure further and try to craft a core/noncore structure that makes sense. I've also asked Sandi and the Sacramento team to line up meetings with key legislators while I'm there to discuss the same. Business is, as was expected, very unhappy about that portion of the plan that would stick them with all of Edison's debts. They view it as unfair and punitive (which it is) and are frustrated that the Democrats would include it simply to "make the deal Harvey proof." Many questioned Keeley about why the Democrats are hell bent on pandering to Harvey. Keely said that the Assembly is also trying to come up with something that will get support from the Senate (read "Burton"). Keely also mentioned our name in a list of many names as sources of information used to build the proposal.

Hertzberg's Plan B was not particularly well received by the user groups. More details later. -Bev =====================================

Regarding the rate increase of 3 cents, it is effective yesterday but the Commission did not describe exactly how it will be implemented. For example, they could a) allow a 3 cent surcharge until the rate design phase is complete, and then switch over to the new rate design around, say, May 15; or b) allow a 3 cent surcharge to be billed and then retroactively adjust the billing based on the new rate design, once it is known. =====================================

We'll be gathering at the San Mateo Marriott on Wednesday, September 19, to hear Mark Klopp's thoughts on this month's topic: When Corporate and Venture Worlds Collide - Aligning Investment Strategies to Drive Innovation and Generate Returns While times are certainly tough across the board, new opportunities for creating profitable, sustainable investment strategies continue to emerge. Innovative companies such as Eastman Chemical have led the charge in using venturing as a way to spur corporate transformation and create long-term value. Moreover, by understanding the often complementary strategies that drive their respective investment decisions, corporate and private VCs stand to gain a unique perspective with which to explore mutually profitable relationships. =B7 What is the current state of corporate venturing? =B7 What are some examples of corporations and VCs working together to build companies? =B7 How can you balance strategic vs. financial value? =B7 How can you prove value despite sagging returns? =B7 To what extent does the corporate VC serve as an "inside/outside pipe" for driving innovation? =B7 How can corporate VCs and private VCs leverage distinct skill sets in a spirit of cooperation to drive innovation and change? Join us for a provocative discussion of these and other important questions led by Mark Klopp, managing director of Eastman Ventures, Eastman Chemical Co. Register by Thursday, September 13th and you'll pay only $99 and ensure your name in the attendance roster.

Subject: Only two people left on the EvMBA board in May--act now! Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/notes_inbox/5361. ===================================== I thought about putting free jeans on the subject header to get your attention but I am not at the point that I am willing to bribe you all (yet). As I finish up my last semester at Haas, I am determined to get the 1st and 2nd year students involved--to help carry on some of the programs that the EvMBA board has supported over the past few years. One of the most valuable and fun experiences I have had over the past three years at Haas has been being able to make a difference through my involvement on the EvMBAA board. You ask, what does the board do? In addition to supporting and organizing social events (Back to School Party, Wine Trip, Raiders game, etc.), the board supports the Career Center Roundtable (thanks Albert) and other activities such as this year's Elective Scoop Night (more details to follow.) Seven out of the ten board members have finished the program in December or will finish the program this semester, so it is time for you to get involved (or Albert Demery and Alessandro Ratti will have to carry the entire load!) The following positions are currently open or will be in the next few months. I urge you to get involved now so that we can have some overlap between outgoing and incoming board members. President (Dawn Taketa, May '01) VP Communications (Thera Kaljmin, May '01) VP Finance (Todd Wells, May '01) Social Co-Chair (open) Social Co-Chair (open) Corporate Outreach (Christine Piesco, May '01) Day Program Liaison (open) Student Advisory Committee Chairperson (Mike Plumb, May '01) Attached are the descriptions of each position and the responsibilities for each. How much of a time commitment will you need to make? At minimum, it is about 6-8 hours per months (a little higher for the President and SAC Chairperson positions)--but with all the great ideas that I am sure all of you have, it can be as much time as you want to put into it. If you are interested in applying, please send me an email with a couple of paragraphs stating which position you are interested in and why you want to get involved/what you would like to accomplish in the position.

Also take a look at AB 1007 (Wayne) relating to internet privacy (I've linked it below). If you're concerned with privacy issues, another hot topic is SB 129 (Peace). That bill intends to set up a privacy ombudsperson within the Secretary of State's office and establish administrative penalties for privacy violations. It's currently in a conference committee. With respect to SB 1217, the bill was aimed directly at Excite@Home and their deal with TCI. Certainly Excite and TCI opposed the bill. I believe other cable companies, including TimeWarner Cable also opposed the bill. Supporters included GTE and AOL. It is my understanding that AOL will probably oppose the bill now because of the merger. I'll let you know if anything else develops. http://info.sen.ca.gov/cgi-bin/postquery?bill_number=ab_1007&sess=CUR&house=B& site=sen Jeff Dasovich wrote: > Scott: > Thanks very much for the info.

Subject: Call with Fielder Fielder agreed to sit down and talk as soon as we'd like. He said that his "legal and tariff guys" told him that "they're on solid ground"; but John admitted that doesn't mean that Edison "is right." I told him that his lawyers and tariff people may think they're on solid ground with the PUC, but that in no way means that an appellate or ("god forbid) bankruptcy judge will concur with either Edison or the PUC. I stressed that we weren't interested in meeting to re-hash our respective positions and that we wanted a meeting where we and they come to the table with constructive, good faith options to resolve the issue. He said that he'd be willing to do that (though most deeply discount anything Edison says these days). He suggested that we start without lawyers. I said that we could do that, but that I'd have to check. I told him that we'd try to get back to him sometime today regarding what we'd like to do. Possible to discuss briefly?

I was under the distinct impression that your version would have the decision variable function but limited to two choices for cells that could operate as decisions. I would suggest that you try Tools - Crystal Ball Decision and see if your software permits access. If not, you may have to try several decision choices in separate simulations (a little more tedious but this is essentially what Crystal Ball would do). I spoke with the same person at Decisioneering, and she indicated the student version of Crystal Ball should be able to set up the decision cells and function correctly (as long as you go through the Tools - CB Decision steps, not just the simulation (triangular) start icon.

The panel was moderated by the Conference of World Regions (Jmaes Gardner and Lucy Duncan). Participants were: Rep. Matthew Kisber--Tennesee (he is also co chair of the NCSL task force on e commerce) Arthur Kerrigan---section chief of e commerce for the European Commission in Brussels David Cliche--Minister for Information Highway/Government of Quebec DAvid Hite--CEO of Veronex Technologies Todd Finch---President, Netscape/Canada Bernard McKay---Vice President, INTUIT The government folks focused most of their discussions on the need to continue to be able to collect taxes on sales, but said they were not looking to increase those taxes--just to be able to make it easy to collect. Kisber seemed to be in the Governor Leavitt camp on e commerce solutions--he referenced Leavitt's proposals several times. Cliche made some interesting statements about Quebec having all of it's government work being done via e mail by the end of 2001---anybody who wants to do business with the government will have to do it via e commerce. THe private sector folks talked about the difficulty in dealing with 50 different state rules and regulations in order to do their business and the need for uniformity and commonality. Finch talked about the need for global governance of the internet rather than local or parochial which will only inhibit development of e commerce. He also talked about if and when states or entities will start thinking about trying to tax information that is exchanged via e commerce and how this would be counterproductive. McKay brought up the concept of government becoming a competitor with the private sector as e commerce changes the way we do business. It was a fairly interesting discussion, but no real bombshells. Scott--Kisber mentioned that there was going to be a meeting of the COngressional interent taxation committee next week in San Francisco (this is the Governor Gilmore group). Are you attending that meeting? =====================================

Subject: Re: Dow Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/sent/1003. ===================================== Greetings. The reference is specific to statements that we made when FERC first issued it's proposed order on Nov. 1 regarding how to fix the mess in California. We said (and FERC was a little cranky about this) that we were pulling 300 MWs of power plants that we'd planned to build in California on the basis of the price cap proposal included in FERC's proposed order. It was in the press. So it was narrowly confined to the power plant proposals. Calpine subsequently announced that it, too, would pull the peaking plants it had planned to developed. I think that they announced the same amount would be pulled---300 MWs. If you need anything else, don't hesitate to call.

He also expects additional companies to join Enron Corp. and Calpine Corp. in pulling out of the state's market, causing blackouts and ongoing high prices next summer. "We've had three hearings already," Herbert added. "Are customers better off? I don't think so." Meanwhile, State senator Debra Bowen, head of the state Senate Energy Committee, told a hearing in Sacramento yesterday that FERC's plan could lead to re-regulation if residents were not protected from market manipulation. Reuters quotes Bowen as saying: "If there's not political accountability between the people that are making the decisions about what California customers pay and the people who are paying those rates, we're likely to have a revolution at the consumer level that leads to re-regulation regardless of what's in a FERC order" (Dow Jones Newswires, Reuters, Nov. 13). =====================================

Subject: Update--Day 3 of California PUC Hearings Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/8016. ===================================== The Hearings The hearings have transitioned to the more traditional, courtroom-like environment, with lawyers engaged in detailed cross-examination of utility witnesses. The hearing focused solely on the utility claims of financial hardship. The hearings went from 9AM-5PM and only managed to make it through two PG&E witnesses--extensive, detailed questions on PG&E's cash management practices since restructuring started in 1998. Questions to witnesses focused in particular on PG&E's use of cash for investment and financing activities over the past 2-3 years (e.g., dividend/stock repurchase activities, transfer of cash from IOU to parent and parent's use of that cash for investment activities). Questions also focused on options other than rate increases available to the utility (e.g., liquidate certain assets of unregulated biz units, loans from parent, bankruptcy). The commissioners and the ALJ have reacted in extremely hostile manner toward PG&E's repeated attempts to amend and add to their proposal as the hearings progress. Questioning of PG&E witnesses will continue at 10 AM on Tuesday, followed by Edison witness. Unclear when the hearings will end, though the Commission is scheduled to issue its decision on Thursday. At this point, it seems very unlikely that the Commission will have developed the record necessary to do anything other than raise rates under its general ratemaking authority. Outside the Hearing Intense negotiations between Governor's office and utility management continue. Seems that the Commission/Administration is beating up on the utilities inside the hearing room in an attempt to soften the utilities up and gain some leverage in the negotiations taking place outside the hearing room. Governor continues to try to bring consumer groups into the negotiations with utilities, but consumer groups continue to resist and continue to oppose any rate increases. Governor seems to be attempting to set up a situation where the Commission absorbs the political heat for raising rates on the 4th, and the Governor follows-up with a more comprehensive set of proposals as part of his state of the state speech on the 8th. =====================================

SCE has filed a motion for summary judgement and a motion for injunctive relief in its "filed rate doctrine" case in Federal District Court in LA to require the CPUC to declare the rate freeze over and for a court order requiring the CPUC to raise Edison's rates to recover all past and current power costs. This is a potentially critical case. 2. PG&E filed a motion to require SoCalGas to deliver gas to it for core consumption under the mutual assistance statute and their agreement with SoCalGas. SoCalGas has strongly protested the motion. 3. PG&E has filed a motion to permit gas suppliers to receive a security interest in the utility's accounts receiveables (CPUC approval required under Sec. 851) in order for such suppliers to obtain collateral from the utility which does not require cash. Expedited two day response time was requested. The ALJ will issue a ruling determining how much time we will have to respond. 4. PG&E has filed an advice letter seeking to replace the weighted day ahead PX price with the ISO ex post energy price as the cost element in the PX credit for direct access customers. 5. ORA/TURN have filed an emergency petition seeking to modify the EFO and OFO procedures under the PG&E gas accord, specifically seeking to waive EFO and OFO penalties and reducing the diversion charges the core would pay when the noncore's gas is diverted to serve core load. The charge would be reduced to the actual cost of gas, thereby depriving noncore customers and their suppliers of the cost of interstate transmission and any costs assciated with the loss of the gas supply and its effect on the customers' operations. CMTA has filed strong opposition. This is what we are aware of as of today. Mike Day =====================================

The property is right in the heart of the Banana Belt and my property faces south, is protected, and a such is very hot and sunny from late spring through later summer/early fall. The property has an abundance of water on it. Of course, the possibility of evening fog raises some tricky issues, and I haven't done soil tests.

Subject: CAISO FERC FILING: MARKET STABILIZATION PLAN Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/notes_inbox/1079. ===================================== During a conference call today (Friday), the CAISO announced a FERC Section 206 "Market Stabilization Filing."? As of noon today, the filing had not yet been posted on the CAISO web-site.? According to the CAISO, the filings is designed to meet three objectives:? (1) respond to the lack of a forward market in California, (2) respond to the problem of underscheduling, and (3) protect consumers from the exercise of market power.? Below is a brief description of the CAISO proposal/filing as discussed on today's conference call. ? ? A summary of the CAISO proposal/filing is as follows: To protect consumers from the exercise of market power, impose "Bid Caps" of $100/MWH.? Provide a means for generators to justify higher bid caps based on their costs.? For generators/marketers committing/selling 70% of their supply in the forward markets (presumedly including the day ahead) to serve California load, then their would be no bid-cap but the existing FERC approved $250/MWH "purchasers cap" would apply. To incent forward contracting, the UDCs would have a requirement to procurement 85% of their supply in the forward markets. To incent forward scheduling and minimize uninstructed deviations, the CAISO would impose a Real-Time Deficiency Charge for schedulers outside a pre-specified bandwidth (e.g. 10% of your scheduled supply/load).? The Real-Time Deficiency Charge, as yet unspecified, is contemplated to be in the $25-$50/MWH range.? The CAISO indicated its desire to bring these important issues to the FERC in?the form of a proposal for its timely consideration.? Clearly, this proposal raises a number of questions.? For example, how does the CAISO determine that 70% of a generator/ESP supply has been offered in the forward markets (Do you provide affidavits, contracts?).? How does the CAISO require UDCs to buy in the forward markets?? How were the target levels determined (e.g. 70% sold forward as opposed to 60%).? ? The IEP Market Response Project team members are scheduled to have a conference call on Friday, October 27 to discuss this filing (as well as other filings seemingly coming out of the woodwork). =====================================

Is FERC trying to find a "cost based" price, above which is "unjust and unreasonable"? Aren't these companies entitled to charge market-based rates, which may be above cost in the event of scarcity? thanks mcs My team: FYI, below. mcs Beverley - please print the attachments for my review upon my return. thansk mcs From: Steven J Kean@ENRON on 12/03/2001 08:52 CST To: Mark Schroeder/LON/ECT@ECT cc: Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron@Enron Subject: Re: news/updates I am attaching the FERC order and staff recommendations. The order provides for $69 million in "potential" refunds (either pay up or provide cost justification). Enron was not named as one of the 13 overcharging parties, but PGE was ($3.18 million). It's not over yet, though. The order deals only with Jan 01 and promises further orders regarding Dec 00 and benchmark prices through April 01. The prices used to determine refunds were fairly high ($273/mwh based on gas prices, emissions costs and an assumed heat rate of over 16000). With respect to sales to California, we have concluded at least one short term sale and have talked with Cal Dept of Water Resources about longer term deals, but we were still struggling with credit issues, last I heard. I'm copying Jeff Dasovich because I'm sure he has more up to date information. Mark Schroeder@ECT 03/11/2001 02:11 PM To: Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron@Enron, Steven J Kean/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Subject: news/updates In the press, I saw two news stories that I wondered if we (Enron) had any role/hand in, and what was the offical "spin" in both cases. 1) The FERC Order requiring something like 55-65 million dollars in refunds by generators (or did it include traders) for overcharging in California in December, if I recall my facts/news stories correctly, and 2) the reports of 40 companies entering into 10-year contracts with California (touted by Davis). Was Enron a contracting party? Do we think this is a good solution (I think I know the answer, but defer to your lead on this, so we stay on your message)? thanks mcs =====================================

The one database for which you don't need a proxy intermediary is "Onesource" - you will find Onesource to be one of the most useful databases while you are at Haas. Onesource seamlessly integrates information from a lot of excellent international business publications and just like its name suggests, it is a one-stop source for much of your business research. You will need a password and username to access Onesource. The initial password and username will be: yourhasslogin.ucb so, if you are [email protected], you will login to Onesource using philemon.ucb for both your username and your password. Onesource is accessible at, believe-it-or-not, http://www.onesource.com and you can access this database from any browser anywhere anytime with your password. After you have logged in for the first time, please change your username and password to one you will easily remember. You can change your password when you are at the initial search screen by clicking on the Account Maintenance link and the rest should be self explanatory. If you forget the password you set for yourself, you will have to contact Onesource directly yourselves to be issued another one. (If you can't get in using the initial password that has been set for you, please email me. There are a few of you and I don't know who you are yet, who have been issued passwords that are different from your haas logins. I will have a list of passwords that are something other than haas logins by Monday, the 27th. I won't be able to do anything before then if you can't get in.) Most of the rest of the library's electronic products require the proxy setup on your end. If you haven't done this yet, instructions for this deceptively simple procedure are at http://proxy.lib.berkeley.edu - you will also find information on username and password, troubleshooting your setup, known problems, at this site. Email me with questions. I'll respond on Monday, the 27th. Monica Singh =====================================

The incentive these customers now have to participate in DA and thereby remove burden from DWR is removed. Creates incentives to increase usage and decrease conservation, exactly at the time that just the opposite effect is desired. Rate at frozen level removes all price signal effect in unregulated market. These are customers who under existing law already have had choice, as an alternative to paying market price, of 1) voluntarily opting in to a one year 6.5 cent rate freeze, with a true-up, or 2) buying commodity and risk management products in the competitive market, as many of them have already done, and 3) reducing usage to save money. This bill takes takes away the last two choices/incentives. Adopting "rates by proxy" (in a sense, indexed to PG&E and SCE rates) creates the potential for a regulatory nightmare. As an alternative, the Legislature should consider extending the voluntary opt-in program under existing law. This would preserve existing protection, keep choices available to customers, and not unduly add to DWR's burden. As another alternative, we could be a lot more willing to accept this IF the "end of the rate freeze" date in (f) were specified to occur no earlier than the date new rates are put in place (the proposed language from 18X, remember?) and it were clear that existing DA contracts were not overturned by this Act. =====================================

FERC Responds to California Energy Commissioner's White Paper on Natural Gas Infrastructure Issues. Chairman Hebert responded to the May 17, 2001 letter from California Energy Commission Michal Moore who invited Hebert to comment on a draft staff white paper on natural gas infrastructure issues by the CEC Electricity and Natural Gas Committee. Hebert expressed agreement with the white paper's general conclusion the natural gas system in California is strained in meeting growing demand. Hebert is encouraged that the report recommends, "supporting intrastate system expansions and exploring the role that enhanced storage can play in meeting future demand." Comments and recommendations from FERC Staff attached to Hebert's letter include expanding the discussion on the need for slack pipeline capacity to achieve price stability, detailing possible options for shippers to avoid interruption, and an examination of possible anti-competitive provisions in intrastate tariffs. ?

Subject: PG&E/SCE filing Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/2489. ===================================== If you had not seen this, it looks like the utilities are now trying to "help" FERC find the guilty. What do people thin about beginning to quietly discuss with members of the California state house that the damages of the summer are not (or don't need to) being charged to end use customers. The utilities are doing a really good job of wrapping themselves with little households. In fact, TURN signed on to this pleading. While San Diego customers are harmed, other consumers in California are just fine. Utility shareholders are taking it on the chin. We need to make sure that policymakers (especially FERC) recognize that in making any kind of refund the real choice is between Power Marketer shareholders and Utility shareholders.

Subject: SWPTF Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/2267. ===================================== The Southwest Power Trading Forum met yesterday to discuss in detail the two draft filings that are planned for submission in the Southwest. A great deal of interest was expressed in evolving the ad hoc group into a viable organization dedicated to advocating issues and addresssing filings as they arise in the southwest. A task force was formed in order to explore a two-tier member organization structure with an opt in/opt out feature for members. The catalyst to this discussion was that SRP is in the process of forming a "competitive generation coalition" in Arizona to effectively control any efforts related to state tax legislation and eventually RTO activity. Reliant offered information concerning their meeting with FERC and indicated that Massey likes the RTO West model and believes it was a collaborative process that other western RTO's can utilize as an example. Carl Imparato expressed his concerns with RTO West citing transmission access and the scope of duties as the two main problems with RTO West. With respect to transmission access, FTRs are assigned to the incumbents but the incumbents are not required to put them up for auction. With respect to the scope of duties the RTO does not offer all FERC jurisdictional services including generation interconnection and low voltage sections of the grid. The group submitted a letter to the DSTAR advisory committee meeting today and plans to submit it to the Board tomorrow that essentially requests immediate attention and resolution to the issues prior to the December filing. There are approximately 50 problems that require resolution (approximately 80 problems in the filing IOU documents) and if left in their current state would undermine the basic objective of the RTO. The issues fall into the following five categories: ? Insufficient Scope of RTO Authority ? Foreclosure of Meaningful Transmission Access to the DSTAR Grid ? Undue Discrimination Against Non-Incumbent Uses of the DSTAR Grid ? Inefficient and Inequitable Pricing Mechanisms ? Restrictions on RTO Independence. A draft of the letter is attached for your review. Please let me know if you have any questions. Marcie =====================================

Subject: Re: Enron's Response Today - Key Point to Focus On Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/3783. ===================================== While there are certainly pros and cons both ways, I agree with Jim to lead with the market structure issues. This was the focus of FERC's order and we perhaps overemphasize the refund issue by elevating it to number 1. Plus, we lose a little credibility since, like the UDCs, we would come across as, at bottom, primiarily concerned only with maximizing our financial position, and less concerned with trying to be a constructive force in shaping a competitive market in California. That is not FERC's priority. Finally, and I say this will great equivocation, I believe that FERC carefully drafted the refund language, that it knew exactly what it was doing, and is unlikely to move off that formulation either way. The issue is still of utmost importance but for the foregoing reasons as well as those stated by Jim, I would prioritize it just below the $150 soft cap and prospective refund issue. Ron >>> <[email protected]> 11/22/00 10:30AM >>> As I've been thinking about our response today, I would like Enron to focus on making sure that the California (WSCC) markets are as good a possible for business over the next 15 to 24 months. Following that idea, I think that the key points are (1) clarifying/raising the soft cap and (2) reducing the burden/risk of the prospective refund period. I know that we had discussed leading off with the debate over market power / retroactive refunds, but I think that (a) FERC is not inclined to do much more on this issue, (b) FERC wants to fix the market as much as it can given the current political realities, and (c) if retroactive refunds become an issue, we still have our full compliment of resources to later fight this fight. I would recommend that the pleading and Alan's testimony be modified to bring these issues to the top of the ticket. We should still include all of our other arguments. Finally, I want to make sure that Enron is taking the right position by quietly supporting a $250/Mwh soft cap with safe harbor fixes? Sue Mara, can you please try and find out what EPSA, IEPCA, and WPTF are going to file? I want to make sure that we are in the ball park on this issue but not getting too soft.

We will have representatives from both traditional, larger firms (such as McKinsey, A.T. Kearney, Andersen Consulting, Deloitte) as well as from newer, Internet-focused firms (such as Scient and Zefer).? We expect between 20-25 firms (and maybe even more) to be in attendance.? We will send out a final listing of all confirmed participants towards the end of next week. Details / Event Logistics Date:? Thursday, September 28th Time:? 6:30pm-9:30pm Location:? Hyatt Regency in Embarcadero Center; Garden Room (on the Atrium Lobby Level / 3rd floor) Fee:? $5 for Consulting Club members, $20 for everyone else (this automatically gives you a one-year membership) Food:? Hors d'oeuvres and drinks will be served The Hyatt Regency in Embarcadero Center is located within 5 Embarcadero Center (right off Market St. - where California St. begins).? Taking BART is very easy/convenient - coming from Berkeley, you need to get off at the first SF stop (Embarcadero).? Depending on which station entrance you come out of, you will be within a block or less of the hotel. Resume Book We will be putting together a resume book for this event.? This will only be for those looking for full-time positions (a separate resume book for those interested in summer internships will be assembled towards the end of this semester).? Please be on the lookout for an email from Seann Birkelund who will be coordinating this over the course of the next several weeks. The Consulting Club Firm Night is open to all Haas MBAs (first years, second years, Evening MBAs).? First years - while most firms won't be recruiting for summer internships until the Spring semester, this is a GREAT way to learn about many of these firms and develop some contacts (many of whom are Haas grads) at the places you have a strong interest in. Finally, given that most consulting firms are in the midst of interviewing for full-time positions, we ask first-years to wait until 7:30pm before arriving at this event. Thanks and we look forward to seeing you at the Firm Night on Sept. 28th Dave Haas Consulting Club =====================================

Subject: Izio Pro: Learning Management System Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/deleted_items/88. ===================================== Dear Students, Izio is a Learning Management System that the Haas School is using in a pilot study. Two LMS systems are currently being evaluated, Izio and another one called Prometheus. Izio provides many useful tools to help you with your courses throughout the semester. To learn more about Izio, see http://support.convene.com/stud/index.htm Also, be aware that the use of Izio is an "opt-in" choice for each faculty person. That is, each faculty person may choose whether or not to use it. Ask your instructor to find out if he/she is using Izio this semester. For the Fall semester, Convene has released an enhanced version of our learning management system called IZIO PRO. You can access Izio Pro by using the same URL as the previous version at http://haas.izio.convenve.com By now most students should have received an email containing their login name and password. To avoid the duplicate accounts issue we encountered last semester, Convene has created a method for creating accounts and posting student course registration information from Haas and Berkeley Campus Systems of Records (e.g., EDULink, SIS/TeleBears). Self registration has been removed. CHANGES TO STUDENT REGISTRATION DATA will be obtained from the Systems of Record and POSTED TO IZIO ONCE PER WEEK UNTIL THE ADD/DROP PERIOD ENDS. Convene has also changed the naming convention for Izio Pro accounts. The naming convention goes as follows, first initial_last name1. This is a locked field and cannot be changed by Haas Computing Services. The Izio software does however allow for users to changed their unique password. As always Haas Computing Services is pleased to assist you with any support issues if you contact the Help Desk at (510)642-0434, mailto:[email protected], or http://helpdesk.haas.berkeley.edu.

Subject: scoping memo Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/1322. ===================================== The following are my thoughts on how we should proceed this Fall. this is a first cut to stimulate discussion, and I welcome any suggestions, criticisms, or changes. We ended this year with a relatively positive image of Enron by the legislature. We have good relationships with leaders on both sides of the aisle. Steve Peace's power has diminished greatly. We have developed a good working relationship with Debra Bowen and her staff, who, as of now, will continue as chair of Senate Energy and we have a vastly improved our relationship with Rod Wright, to the point where he will not have a meeting on contentious legislation, unless we are involved (his public purpose bill, was an example from this year's session, we started out opposing it and ended up supporting it) He was also a coauthor and instramental in passing the Williamson Act Bill. Leadership in both houses should stay the same, although there will be 36 new members in the two houses, thanks to term limits. I have spent time getting to know those who are in secure races and making sure they know Enron. In light of developing a strategy for California, I feel it needs to be broken into the following components: A session on what we see as the issues that will be facing us this fall and next year in the legislative and regulatory arena. I see the following as highly probably in Sacramento and there may be more. Revisions of 1890 Rate stabilization of Edison and PG&E legislation combining the ISO and PX Legislation dealing with the governance of ISO/PX Pressure for price caps in all segments of the market clean up legislation on siting A session with the business units to develop the following: Resolve conflicts between ENA and EES regarding messages Develop priorities Develop messages Set tone of messsages Followup meeting on strategy Media Meetings with key officials Meetings with customers Coalition building Once we have accompished this, GA, plus the business units can start delivering the message.

Subject: RE: California Rate Exposure Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/deleted_items/204. ===================================== All: I changed the following: 1. Reduced total load from 185,000 GWh to 178,000 GWh. 2. Allocated the "costs" by utility based on total demand 3. Changed the DWR negative MTM on contracts from $7.5B to $9.55B 4. Added an undercollection of $.932 Billion for SDG&E (more below) I did not: 1. Add the Nuclear decommissioning as it is funded on balance sheet. I added the following: 1. Allocated the Bonds and Contracts on DWR share of Revenue Requirement %. 2. The CTC is the softest assumption. The utilities wrote off considerable Transition Revenue Account (undercollection) and Transition Cost Balancing Account Balance (primarily stranded cost) at year end. The Regulatory Asset for PG&E and Edison is assumed to be primarily TCBA at 6-30-01, but there is no footnote to absolutely corroborate this. The Undercollection for SDG&E is assumed at the Regulatory Asset balance at 6-30-01. This is due to the rate freeze having ended for SDG&E and therefore their TCBA should be recovered (reduced to zero). Results: One of the key driver to the utility-by-utility allocation is the difference between total volume and share of DWR costs. DWR allocated costs to have a uniform "rate" across the net short by utility. Thus those with a larger portion of their total demand (SDG&E and to a lesser extent PG&E) which is covered by DWR, have a higher unit cost across all rates for the Bonds and Contracts. Edison has the converse. Any changes in assumptions are welcomed.

Their settlement has protected the public interest, and will allow the State's second largest utility to return to financial health. I am pleased to hear the PUC's assurance that this can be accomplished without a rate hike. "In light of the agreement between the PUC and Edison, there is no need for the Legislature to return next week for a special session. Therefore, I am rescinding my call for the Third Extraordinary Session. "In January, the Legislature passed AB 1X which authorized the State to purchase power since our two largest utilities were brought to their financial knees by runaway wholesale energy costs. Despite long odds, the State was able to keep the lights on this summer and has spent approximately $6.1 billion from the General Fund and $5 billion from the DWR Power Fund doing so. AB 1X envisioned the sale of revenue bonds to repay the General Fund with interest. "The Public Utilities Commission's refusal today to adopt the rate agreement necessary for the bonds to be sold was an irresponsible act. It creates uncertainty about our ability to sell the bonds necessary to repay the General Fund when California can least afford additional fiscal uncertainty. In fact, preliminary financial estimates show that State revenues are $1.1 billion short of budget projections. =====================================

Subject: Energy prices embedded in the Duque Interim Bill Cap Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/737. ===================================== The spreadsheet below gives the implicit commodity based on the effective date of four different rates for the same rate schedule (Schedule DR). The rate schedule effective August 2000 through September 2000 yields a much larger commodity charge because SDG&E customers will receive a lump sum reimbursement from SDG&E over those two months. SDG&E customers will expect lower electric bills. Assuming that the lump sum reimbursement is not included in the implicit energy component, the average for June 2000 through January 2001 is 6.2 cts and the implicit commodity average from February 2001 through December 2001 is 7.3 cts. The average implicit commodity from June 2000 through December 2001 is 6.9 cts For deliveries starting September 1, 2000, the average would still be 6.9 cts. Assuming that the lump sum reimbursement is included in the implicit energy component, the average for June 2000 through January 2001 is 7.4 cts and the implicit commodity average from February 2001 through December 2001 is 7.3 cts. The average implicit commodity from June 2000 through December 2001 is 7.3 cts For deliveries starting September 1, 2000, the average would be 7.2 cts. Clarification: The caps apply the first 500 kWh consumed by all residential customers. For those who consume more than 500 kWh per month, the market rates will only apply for all consumption above 500 kWh. ---------------------- Forwarded by Bruno Gaillard/SFO/EES on 08/23/2000 02:55 PM --------------------------- Bruno Gaillard 08/23/2000 02:33 PM To: Christopher F Calger/PDX/ECT@ECT cc: Roger Yang/SFO/EES@EES, James D Steffes/HOU/EES@EES, Thane Twiggs/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, SF Directors, Paul Kaufman/PDX/ECT@ECT Subject: Re: Energy prices embedded in the Duque Interim Bill Cap Attached is an internal analyses put together by Roger Yang and myself reflecting the implicit energy charge as a result of Duque's bill cap. The energy charge varies as new delivery rates are implemented throughout 2000 and 2001. The total number of residential customers in the SDG&E territory is approximately 1.1 Million. According to Duque's Decision only 70% will be protected by the cap. =====================================

Subject: GSPP forum Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/651. ===================================== Jeff, Annette Doornbos called from the school and we talked over the forum a little. As for cost her initial thought was in the range of $10,000 for an early evening forum including dinner for speakers afterwards, with these costs mostly being in the form of paying for the school's events person to organize and advertise. An all day event would be higher. Let's try to set up a conference call this week or early next week so the three of us plus Heather Cameron and possibly the Dean can agree on a general plan. Agenda items are: 1) Structure of the forum: all day or afternoon/evening. We should all think about whether an all day event would have a big enough audience because its a bigger commitment. We could probably do it either way but we need to decide how much effort and investment we're ready for. Since this is sort of a test drive/demonstration project, we might want to shoot for one panel with 4-5 speakers representing opposing viewpoints plus a moderator. I think that type of forum might maximize attendance and press attention. While I tend to think the issues are so complex that its hard to address them in such a short time, they have presidential debates in this time frame that are certainly much more broad yet useful. It could be like a congressional hearing, yet controlled by policy questions rather than politics. We might think about asking the Dean moderate to raise the profile and the objectivity, and he's a strong presence who can keep people in line. 2) Sponsorship Jeff, if Enron supports this, are there certain companies or groups it not want to jointly sponsor an event with? Its in the school's interest to have a variety of funders so as to appear more objective. 3) Description for discussions with press We need to put together a one-pager or so on the potential speakers and issues, to assist Annette in seeking input from the press. She may contact a GSPP alum who owns (?) runs (?) the Sacramento Bee and other newspapers plus the UC public affairs office. 4) Initial speaker list (the "shoot high" list). Please respond and we'll try to set something up. Rob Rob Gramlich PJM Market Monitoring Unit (610) 666-4291 [email protected] =====================================

Given the scenario outlined in the recent draft decision from the CPUC regarding back payments, there may be an oportunity on behald of the QFs to negotiate a modified agreement with dispatch in return for relief on payables by the IOUs. Mike -----Original Message----- From: Parquet, David Sent: Monday, June 04, 2001 10:29 AM To: Calger, Christopher F. Cc: Dasovich, Jeff; Etringer, Michael Subject: Re: SCE QF Meeting The structure is the same as we tried 4 years ago with no success. ("ABE" - "anybody but Enron", being the primary reason we failed.) The deal we were offering was the option to supply from the market in exchange for a 20% discount in the capacity payment. At the time, we WERE going to shut down the QF and pay them more PV than they would have gotten by running, the "grease" coming from the relatively high O&M, which could be extinguished with the proposed structure. This structure sounds like a strict option, but should still work great. The "grease" in this case is the arbitrage between market price and QF operating cost. In the past, I have called John Fielder, VP Regulatory Affairs, when I want to talk about something strategic with SCE. He was my fellow board member on the ISO board. I could call him for you. Christopher F Calger/ENRON@enronXgate 06/04/2001 09:33 AM To: David Parquet/SF/ECT@ECT, Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Michael Etringer/ENRON@enronXgate Subject: SCE QF Meeting Guys, Mike Etringer has a real good structure to present to SCE. Basically, Enron would pay for the right to dispatch the QF so that their obligations to the utility could be met by either the plant or the market. For that right, Enron would be able to pay for/absorb most of the past due receivables owed to the QF. Several QF's have expressed interest, but the utility wont return calls. We could not do this for the whole QF group, but we could do it for 500MW+, which could save everyone $200MM+ in past due receivables. Who should we meet with to putch this idea?

Any auctions (in >any commodity) that would work? We are trying to get back to key policy >makers mid-day on Monday. Yes, there are numerous default service auction models in operation or proposed, both in electricity and other utilities. The government of New South Wales in Australia is implementing a model similar to this. In Georgia, I think they recently had an auction to serve customers served by a gas retailer that went bust. Similar mechanisms have been used for years in the telecoms business for serving specific client bases, such as rural customers. Examples have been in Chile, and even in the U.S. (auctions for "universal service obligations"). We proposed a model for "third-party" default service standard supply for Ontario (working for Aleck Dadson of Enron Canada). This allowed the standard supply provider to meet its obligation by competitive means, including holding an auction. The idea was to provide customers hedging in a framework that allowed for competition in default service. Let me know if you want a briefing or futher info.

Subject: I need your help! Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/notes_inbox/5387. ===================================== Jeff: I took a crack at expressing our thoughts on the exit strategy below. I am not really happy with it in either tone or content and would welcome your input so that we can have more persuasive testimony tonight. Gratefully, Justin Principles to Create a Healthy Competitive Electricity Market The Silicon Valley Manufacturing Group is concerned by the absence of a systematic and expedited exit strategy for the state from the power business. We are convinced that planning for and creating a competitive electricity market is the most effective means to long-term stability and cost-competitiveness for all consumers in California. There are certain principles that, if followed, will help lead us to the kind of stability and cost-effective power that Californians want. We recommend that follow-up legislation to AB1X provide the guidelines for thi= s exit strategy with the following concepts: 1. Keep the utilities solvent and spread out the payback of the CTC over several years 2. Encourage the DWR to buy the least amount of power necessary to stabiliz= e the market for the least amount of time. It does not take a lot of fixed priced contracts to stabilize the market 3. Establish an objective trigger (based on credit worthiness) for the utilities to assume long-term contracts. 4. Allow customers to have direct access and real choice while providing necessary protections to assure the state that the bonds can be repaid =01) 5. Direct long-term customer contracts are beneficial for the State because it lessens the burden of the DWR to obtain power, particularly at peak demand times. 6. Remove barriers to on-site generation to meet customer needs and put excess power onto the grid. Even though we are in a crisis, we should not postpone accounting for long-term and unintended consequences of our short-term measures. Effectiv= e energy policy should be based on sound economic principles. Together, we can accomplish this. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, February 08, 2001 11:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: (See attached file: SVMG Talking Points--JBradley.doc) - SVMG Talking Points--JBradley.doc =====================================

My group of merchant generators and power marketers include many pre-competition Edison empoyees, and employees from other utilities as well. We are sympathetic to the situation of those who currently serve under the Edison banner. We note, however, that something is amiss in your series, and only lightly touched. That is, the role of SCE in advancing the legislation and policies in favor of competition in Californa. It was SCE, and its CEO Mr. Bryson who masterminded the state deregulation legislation. Although SCE's Mr. Bryson objected vigorously to forced sales of power plants, and asked for long terms power purchase contracts, those lost battles gave way to winning the stranded-cost-recovery war. SCE did well in adopting to the new reality, until the wholesale rates flew up, and left the utility unable to recover its costs. SCE made a deliberate calculation in May of 2000 to leave its customers unprotected from cost shocks. There was no hedging undertaken for future power purchases when the wholesale forward prices exceeded SCE's historical generation component of rates. As a result, the debts piled up. Empathize with career employees of SCE, and with dedicated, hard working linemen who are always ready to serve at the cost of their private pleasures. But please, get it right. Much of this misery was the avoidable direct consequence of actions taken by, not avoided, by the SCE management team. Gary B.

The CDWR has been buying power on behalf of the state's three investor-owned utilities since January. The CPUC decision would establish how much the CDWR could recover through rates from each utility for those power buys. The proposed decision, originally scheduled for a vote Thursday, was made available for the first time Tuesday night. The vote on the proposal was postponed in order to allow time for parties to file comments, which are due by 5 p.m. Sept. 11. A new date for a vote hasn't been set, but will occur "some time after comments are received," the CPUC said in a press release. - - 05/09/01 00-06G _____ URL for this Article: http://interactive.wsj.com/archive/retrieve.cgi?id=BT-CO-20010904-005920.djm _____ Copyright ? 2001 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

Subject: IMPORTANT DOE/NARUC ANNOUNCEMENT Sender: [email protected] Recipients: [] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/1799. ===================================== The North American energy industry is facing some of the biggest challenges in its history. Many important decisions need to soon be made by policymakers to smooth the transition to a competitive marketplace in order to address these critical challenges at this crucial moment in the development of restructured markets. Recognizing the need for stakeholder input, the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC) invite all public officials and industry stakeholders to attend the North American Summit on Harmonizing Business Practices in Energy Restructuring. The Summit will be held from November 29 to December 1, 2000, in Dallas, Texas. The Summit is designed to tackle the fundamental issues that lead to a competitive marketplace. Your expertise and participation are critical to the success of this effort. The Summit is designed to maximize interaction between public officials and industry stakeholders. As this will be the only joint meeting hosted by DOE and NARUC this year, early registration is strongly encouraged. To register, go to http://www.energymarkets.org. Remarks from The Honorable Bob Rowe, President of NARUC and Commissioner for the State of Montana, on the importance of the Summit: "We now have a better understanding of some of the challenges we face in energy restructuring. The development of different business practices by different agencies and network companies could become a significant impediment to efficiently doing business across many different network systems. This is an issue not only for suppliers who must do business on many networks but also for utilities who must increasingly face the challenge of consolidating diverse network systems. Obviously the main beneficiary of harmonizing such efforts is the consumer." Please send this email message to colleagues who would benefit from receiving information about the Summit. **************************************************************************** **************** The Center for the Advancement of Energy Markets (CAEM) is responsible for stakeholder coordination, program development, speaker invitations, and outreach, in coordination with DOE and NARUC. =====================================

Subject: Payback Time Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/inbox/1006. ===================================== Comrades: Each year, we students have the opportunity to recognize from among the esteemed faculty members of Haas those who have distinguished themselves from their peers by their commitment to the least glamorous of their tasks: teaching us stupid kids how to read, write and do complicated long division sums. The Earl F. Cheit Award for Outstanding Teaching goes to that individual we deem worthy, from a pool of candidates we nominate, based solely on our judgment as students about our instructors (or maybe we just like their looks--but let that not dissuade us from our sense of duty). The administration and faculty have no voice in this award process, but must gaze upon us silently, in awe and amazement at our power of discernment. Faculty who receive the Outstanding Teacher Award are recognized for this important accomplishment by both the UC Berkeley Campus and the Haas School of Business. Last year's award went to Jonathan Leonard (Core: Micro) with honorable mentions to Jonathan Berke (Core: Finance) and Sarah Tasker (Elective: Financial Information Analysis.) We are currently soliciting nominations for Fall 2001 courses. So, if you have gotten over your indignation for having been put in the dunce corner once too often, and finished copying ?I will not put motor oil in Professor Lyon?s hot cocoa ever again? one hundred times, you may reply to this email with your nomination. Alternatively, if your server is as balky as mine, submit a hard copy to the Evening MBA office. We can only consider nominations with a written explanation. There will be another round of nominations for Spring 2002, but please remember that only one nomination per student is accepted, so if you nominate another faculty member in the Spring, it will supercede this Fall's nomination. In May, we will select one individual from all nominations, based on number of nominations received and the strength of feeling exhibited by the nominors. Thanks, in advance, for your support of this important and prestigious award. Joe Tambornino Chairman - Student Advisory Committee __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Subject: Re: A pop locations Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/eci/29. ===================================== Brian, It is my understanding that the ISO has the right to get flat rate, (no mileage charge) access into the ISO network from within the LATA of the A POPs. If this access is at the right price it means that any customer wanting to get a circuit between say, Redding CA and Orange County, CA would have VERY cheap access and competitive Long Haul. That being said, at this point I do not think the A POP information is crucial to our initial meeting. We need to ascertain the following: 1) Can the ISO nail up discreet circuits on this network? It is currently a meshed ATM backbone with traffic being routed dynamically. 2) What conditions need to be met by the ISO to scale the network to OC48? If they cannot scale it we have only about an OC3 of available bandwidth and that is not worth our time. 3) What are the DS3 and OC3/12 access rated from MCI? This will uncover our true opportunity in this deal.

Subject: Summer Seminars in Political Economy (July 9-13 & August 13-17) Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/notes_inbox/12516. ===================================== Dear Jeff, SUMMER SEMINARS IN POLITICAL ECONOMY: July 9-13 & August 13-17 How sound an economics education are American students getting? If a recent study of high school history textbooks is indicative, the answer is very discouraging. The economists who authored that study examined 12 history texts for their treatment of the Great Depression. Only two of the texts correctly identified the fall in the money supply as a cause of the Great Depression, while ten blamed "overproduction" or "excess capacity" in various industries -- hypotheses that mainstream economic researchers rejected decades ago. The bottom line? Even when a student is lucky enough to have a teacher that teaches valid economic principles, that student is likely being taught an interpretation of history that contradicts those principles. To help high school and college-age students learn to reason about economics, history and politics, The Independent Institute is sponsoring two Summer Seminars in Political Economy. These dynamic seminars will help students learn what economics is, how it affects their lives, and how understanding its laws can help them achieve the things they care about. TOPICS INCLUDE -- Economics and Liberty: How the West grew richer and politically freer -- Market Chaos or Hidden Order? How markets coordinate people's plans -- Monopoly or Competition? How market incentives improve the quality of life -- Market Failure or Government Failure? Inflation, recession and government policy INSTRUCTOR -- Joseph Fuhrig, Professor of Economics and Finance, Golden Gate University TIME -- 8:30 AM - 12 NOON, July 9-13 or August 13-17 (choice of session depends on availability) TUITION -- $175 Room and board and one unit of college credit through Holy Names College in Oakland, Calf., are also available at extra cost.

By Jason Leopold Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES SAN DIEGO (Dow Jones) -- David Freeman, seen a likely replacement for Marcie Edwards on the board of governors of the California Independent System Operator, said his first order of business would be to try and merge the ISO and the California Power Exchange. Edwards resigned her post on the ISO Thursday. An informal consensus among the board has already approved his membership. Freeman told Dow Jones Newswires that the $250 per megawatthour wholesale power price cap in California is too high, and that he would like to see it reduced below $100/MWh. "I think my role (on the board) will help the state solve it's serious generation shortage problem," Freeman said. Some market participants said Freeman is expected to run for chair of the ISO's board of governors, a seat currently held by Jan Smutny-Jones. The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power has this summer been able to sell the ISO power in the real time market, and make a great profit for itself in return.

This may or may not appear in some edited form as an op-ed piece in the WSJ. Although this statement is in my own words, I believe it is consistent with the Manifesto. I would appreciate feedback from my fellow economists if I have made statements that contradict the Manifesto, or most critically have made arguments that they feel are not sound economics. I will try to incorporate suggestions in the next draft. Thanks for your reaction. I am also sending copies of this draft to a couple of people in the media other than the WSJ, and they are welcome to use the content but not the text if they want a summary of my take on the crisis.

Subject: FW: Calif Consumer Group Steps Up Opposition To SoCal Ed Bill Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/sent_items/1910. ===================================== Ditto. -----Original Message----- From: Comnes, Alan Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 6:58 PM To: Dasovich, Jeff; Etringer, Michael Subject: Calif Consumer Group Steps Up Opposition To SoCal Ed Bill Calif Consumer Group Steps Up Opposition To SoCal Ed Bill Updated: Monday, August 27, 2001 04:55 PM ET LOS ANGELES (Dow Jones)--Three weeks before the state legislature adjourns, a California consumer group is stepping up efforts to oppose a rescue deal for Edison International's (EIX, news, msgs) insolvent utility Southern California Edison, a spokesman for The Foundation for Taxpayer and Consumer Rights said Monday. The group has set up a war room in a hotel one block from the state's capitol, which it will use to organize citizen volunteers from around the state. The volunteers, who will wear black and yellow armbands for easy identification, will meet with lawmakers and report on legislative developments to the media and to community groups, said spokesman Doug Heller. "We want politicians to know they are being watched and that an Edison bailout is unacceptable," Heller said. A bill is currently being heard by an Assembly committee to rescue SoCal Ed by allowing it to issue up to $2.9 billion in bonds backed by ratepayer revenue. The utility has $3.5 billion in undercollections because it couldn't pass high wholesale power costs to customers under a rate freeze. The foundation, which believes the bill will result in rate increases beyond the two already instituted this year, is setting up a telephone line with near-daily updates on legislative developments, Heller said. The consumer group plans to sponsor a 2002 ballot measure to overturn an Edison bill if it passes. In the past, the group has helped overturn legislation on property taxes and insurance rates through ballot initiatives. "We've done some test mailing on this and have had a real positive response from the public. We're ready to do a mail-based campaign if the legislature screws up," Heller said. About 25,000 people have already signed an online "anti-bailout" petition, according to the foundation's Web site. -By Jessica Berthold, Dow Jones Newswires; 323-658-3872; [email protected] =====================================

This release was not confirmed by the sender.) January 17, 2001 CPUC PRES. LORETTA LYNCH STATEMENT ON OUTAGES California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) President Loretta Lynch today issued the following statement: Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) began rotating outages of firm customers starting at 11:54 a.m. in response to a request from the California Independent System Operator (ISO). The ISO made the request late this morning when energy supplies dipped below demand in Northern California. Public safety agencies such as police and fire departments, public transportation agencies such as BART and Muni, hospitals larger than 100 beds, and other agencies directly involved in public health and safety are exempt from this plan and will suffer no interruption of power supply. Customers in PG&E's service area may experience outages of 60-90 minutes in duration on a rotating basis through 9 p.m. this evening. This spreads the inconvenience equitably but for as short a time as possible for all customers. Rotating outages begin only after all efforts have been made to secure energy supplies and the utilities have curtailed all customers who participate in interruptible programs where customers have voluntarily agreed to curtail their energy usage during times of energy shortage in exchange for lower energy rates. Every citizen is urged to conserve as much electric power as possible not only today but in the future as Californians work together for a permanent, equitable solution to the power supply problem.

Subject: Welcome New Co-Chair Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/27982. ===================================== Dear Energy Committee Members: After nearly a year of acting as one of your two co-chairs, it is time for me to focus more completely on my duties at Exodus Communications and to bring in new leadership to the Energy Committee. In light of this change, John Redding and I felt it important for the Committee to choose a well qualified and experienced replacement co-chair that will lead the Energy Committee to continued successes. After taking nominations for over three weeks, we held formal elections during yesterday's regular committee meeting. Paul Stephens, Joe Desmond, and Nayeem Sheikh were nominated, and responded with intelligent answers to questions given by the committee and it's leadership. After over an hour of questions and thorough answers from the three nominees, your committee selected Joe Desmond to replace myself as your new co-chair. Joe has a wealth of impressive experience in energy and leadership and a thorough knowledge of energy and the associated issues facing the SVMG companies. He has been an active and valued member of the Energy Committee, and has provided much leadership on salient issues, including Blackout Notification, Real Time Pricing, and Direct Access. Please welcome and join me in congratulating Joe Desmond as your new co-chair. Along with John Redding, I am certain these two will lead the Committee on the important energy issues of your company, and improve upon the already lengthy list of successes this Committee has achieved for all SVMG companies. They will help to grow the recognition and stewardship the SVMG Energy Committee has attained amongst our peer groups and state and federal policy makers. I know that Joe will come to speed immediately on leading your Committee. Nonetheless, I will wane my involvement over the next several weeks and assist Joe in transitioning into his new role. We are lucky to have such great leadership by both John and Joe, and I know we will have many more great successes to come. Congratulations and thank you to all of our three nominees, and welcome Co-Chair Joe Desmond.

Subject: Western States Wary Of Electric Dereg Amid Calif's Woes Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', "nicholas.o'[email protected]", '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/2052. ===================================== Western States Wary Of Electric Dereg Amid Calif's Woes By Jessica Berthold ? 09/27/2000 Dow Jones Energy Service (Copyright (c) 2000, Dow Jones&Company, Inc.) OF DOW JONES NEWSWIRES LOS ANGELES -(Dow Jones)- Electricity customers in several Western states are getting cold feet about their upcoming deregulation deadlines after watching San Diegans' bills more than double under deregulation this summer. The New Mexico Public Regulation Commission held a public meeting Tuesday to discuss consumers' requests for a delay in that state's scheduled Jan. 1, 2002, deregulation start date. "Everyone is worried about the fly-up in wholesale and retail prices in San Diego as the result of a tight market, so they're asking for a delay until more supply can be secured," said John Curl, director of the PRC's utility division. In Nevada, Governor Kenny Guinn has postponed signing that state's deregulation schedule several times amid pressure from legislators concerned about higher rates for constitutents. Guinn is expected to make a decision by early next week, which means deregulation could get underway as soon as Nov. 1, 2000. Oregon has also taken California's troubles seriously. Under electricity restructuring rules adopted late last month, large industrial and nonresidential customers will deregulate starting Oct. 1, 2001, but residential and small commercial customers will still get a regulated rate. "This is the first big step in implementing electric restructuring in Oregon in a unique way that is very different from what California and other states have done," said Oregon Public Utilities Commission chairman Ron Eachus.
