The ACR highlights certain aspects of the Agreement and asks for parties to evaluate the effects of the Agreement and indicate what they believe the consequences of its adoption would be. Comments are due by August 1st. The Agreement itself basically calls for DWR to set its revenue requirement based on "Bond Related Costs" and "Operating Expenses" and for the Commission to implement such revenue requirement. It is up to DWR to determine whether the revenue requirement is just and reasonable prior to submitting it to the Commission. Please let me know if Enron is interested in Commenting on the Agreement.

Greetings Michelle: As we talked about it last week---and now that I'm back in the office, I'm having folks check to make sure that this is 100% accurate: Rates for core subscription customers are forecasted (I believe based on previous month's gas prices). Bills for core subscription customers are lagged (I believe by 30 days after consumption). The IOUs face a PBR mechanism that incents them to buy index (though they may have engaged in a modest amount of hedging). The California PUC issued an order (about 2 months ago) prohibiting noncore customers from switching to core subscription status. I'm back in the office today, and have folks checking on this. I need to pin down with certainty 1) the forecast period, and 2) the bill lag period. Will get back to you as soon as we get the info. If there's anything, just let me know.

The dust has not yet settled on all of our ERCs for Roseville. There are still fantasy issues that EPA and others are thinking about, which if implemented, will make some of the ERC deals we have at best uneconomical. 2. If we got this "gift", it would be nice to be able to sell the ERCs we have so that we can reduce our out of pocket exposure during these fun times. Frankly, if Leslie's idea became law, these ERCs could be sold to projects who did not have access to the waste water that we do, thus facilitating additional new power plant devleopment for the benefit of the state. Having said all of the above, I have my doubts that something like this would have a chance of working out. The little people in the environmental community have absolutely no concept of the big picture, being instead more worried about detail process over global results. I think that this thing would get bogged down in the reality that projects would get ERCs, but the net result would be a short term decrease in air quality in the local air basin due to not applying specific, coincident ERCs to specific projects. The little people probably cannot get their head around that, even though the very clean modern plants one day would put out of business dirtier, less efficient plants, thus resulting in a net improvement in air quality in the state. -----Original Message----- From: Dasovich, Jeff Sent: Friday, November 16, 2001 7:35 PM To: Parquet, David; Wehn, Samuel Subject: FW: Water You guys interested? -----Original Message----- From: Scott Govenar Sent: Fri 11/16/2001 5:43 PM To: Jeff Dasovich; Susan J Mara Cc: Subject: Water Assembly Member Tim Leslie is interested in sponsoring a bill which would grant air credits to prospective power plant owners in exchange for using reclaimed water.

It seems like it was a very long time ago that we worked together on the PECO deal, doesn't it? I look forward to doing the panel with you at the Utility M&A Symposium in NY on Monday, January 29, 2001. Our panel is set for around 4:00 that afternoon. I'll get off a brochure to you, but the panel will discuss price volatility and what strategies there may be for dealing with it. I thought it would be great if you could address the California situation and your thoughts on why it occurred and what the causes are and perhaps what remedial measures should be undertaken. Your thoughts on price caps and the "hard" and "soft" nature of the various approaches would also be on interest. I think people would also have a keen interest in the differences between CA and other markets, such as PA and perhaps the soon to open Texas market. I'll follow up with more info as the time gets closer, but you probably may want to think of a talk in the 25 minute range or so. I will let the EXNET (the seminar sponsor) know of your participation. As you may also know, LeBoeuf sponsors a dinner that evening at LeCirque for our energy industry clients. It is usually a good time and many of your compatriots, including Steve Kean, have attended in the past. If you can possibly make it, that would be great. My guess is that there also may be some people in attendance that you may wish to catch up with on various industry things that you may be working on. Thanks again, Rick, and I'll be in touch soon.

Subject: Re: FERC preparation conference call Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/sent/886. ===================================== Steve: I'm not sure how far along you are with the comments, but California's insistence on micro-managing utility purchases is really standing in the way of developing a competitive, functional market. The prospect of having Ms. Lynch in particular and the State of California generally as a counter party in every transaction is a huge disincentive for the utilities to transact. (Though the situation in California has now put the utilities into a "damn the torpedoes" mode and persuaded them to transaction despite the regulatory risk.) Clearly, the first best answer is utility-out-of-the-merchant-function. But given the political climate in California, we're likely to have the utility in the role of buyer, at least in the near term. For the market to work in a structure with utility as buyer, the CPUC and California need to get out of the way. Otherwise, it's a never-ending quagmire. A couple of PUCs ago, the CPUC set up an incentive mechanism for utility gas procurement. Under that mechanism, a benchmark is set. If the utility beats the benchmark, it shares the benefits with consumers. If it does worse than the benchmark, it shares the pain with consumers. It's a model that works, that's simple and that's compatible with competitive markets. It ain't perfect, but it's head and shoulders above the regulator-as-counterparty that the current PUC has put in place. Given the brief time you'll have, there may be other more critical issues, but this one is getting increasing attention out here in the land of lunacy.

Subject: UDC Filings Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/notes_inbox/522. ===================================== Note item 2, per our conversation today. ---------------------- Forwarded by Mona L Petrochko/SFO/EES on 09/20/2000 03:12 PM --------------------------- JMB <[email protected]> on 09/20/2000 02:32:17 PM To: "'[email protected]'" <[email protected]> cc: Subject: UDC Filings FYI: (1) SDG&E filed a petition to modify Decision 00-06-034 (Phase II PTR) with respect to the decision's implementation schedule for hourly PX pricing for customers with hourly interval meters. Ordering Paragraph 19 of that decision requires that all bundled customers with hourly interval meters be billed using hourly data once the rate freeze ends. As SDG&E's freeze had already ended, the Commission directed SDG&E to file an advice letter to implement the hourly pricing. It did so on July 7th, proposing to implement hourly billing on August 1 for customers above 4500 kW and on October 1 for customer between 500 and 4500 Kw. The advice letter has not yet been acted on. SDG&E is now petitioning for authority to implement hourly PX pricing for customer on a voluntary basis for customers at or above 500 kW starting December 1, 2000. SDG&E's reasoning is that converting to hourly billing will increase average bills by 7-8% over current bills. Something which customers cannot handle given the current price spikes in SDG&E's service territory. SDG&E also notes that it is now required to implement a voluntary program that would electric rates at 6.5 cents kWh for large commercial and industrial customers. It states that it wants to "develop an hourly pricing program that is complimentary to and consistent with" that requirement. I was unsure whether the hourly PX pricing was a big issue for Enron (or ARM). Please let me know if you want a copy of the petition or would like to respond to it. (2) As you know, PG&E filed a petition for writ of review of Commission Decision 99-10-057 (Phase I PTR) with the Court of Appeals on the issue of post rate freeze collection of non transition costs. That writ was summarily denied on September 6, 2000 (i.e., the court declined to hear the case). PG&E has now filed a Petition with California Supreme Court for review of the Court of Appeals denial. Of note in the filing, is that PG&E states that its "uncollected out of pocket purchase costs currently total approximately $2.2 billion." Thats all for now.

Subject: NYSEG's rate freeze campaign Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/12851. ===================================== Price freeze could well cost electricity consumers Source: Times Union Publication date: 2001-05-19 Arrival time: 2001-05-22 New York State Electric and Gas is working hard to convince consumers and the Public Service Commission that its plan to lock in prices for seven years is a good thing. That campaign includes two recent full-page ads in the Times Union taking issue with a story exploring the ramifications of the proposal that NYSEG hopes the Public Service Commission will approve by June 27. A rate freeze sounds good. Nobody wants to see their electric bill climb, especially when stories about California's energy crisis and a potential electricity shortage in New York City fill the paper. But as prices fall, as they may do within the next seven years, NYSEG customers will be stuck with higher costs. In fact, NYSEG's freeze request would nullify an existing PSC order directing the utility to implement a 5 percent rate decrease on March 3, 2002. An April 25 PSC paper clarifying NYSEG's price structure found that the company would, therefore, get a 5 percent price hike as part of the rate freeze plan. Over six years this would result in about $55 million more for the company. At the same time, NYSEG customers would be denied the benefits of lower electric prices that building new power plants should provide. This same PSC study also found that NYSEG's current rates are generating earnings of 35 percent, which according to the PSC is in "excess of returns authorized for electric, gas or telephone corporations." NYSEG vows that customers unhappy with its rates will be able to switch suppliers, but that isn't easy, as Kenneth Aaron, the author of the Times Union story in question, points out. As power plants planned for construction come on line, prices should fall. More plants equal more power. The more plentiful a product is, the cheaper it becomes. The best way for NYSEG to provide low-cost power for its customers is to let New York's still-young competitive energy market run without allowing a major transmission company to lock in prices for most of a decade. Companies that take the financial risk of building New York's required power plants need to know they'll be able to get a fair price for the electricity they sell. A large chunk of the market must not be shut to them with very long-term contracts. =====================================

Subject: CSFB Power Gen Update: EIX Bankrptcy?--Implications for theIPPs Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/inbox/260. ===================================== <<IPPupdate092201.pdf>> Good Morning Attached, please find our Power Generation Update issued this morning. 1. EIX Bankruptcy Filing?-Implications for the IPPs Recent press reports have suggested there is a growing likelihood that an involuntary bankruptcy petition will be filed against Southern California Edison, the utility subsidiary of Edison International (EIX, Not Rated). We thought it would be timely to analyze the implications of an SCE bankruptcy for the IPPs. 2. SCE Bankruptcy Would be Neutral for the IPPs Our overall conclusion is that an SCE bankruptcy would be neutral for the sector: A. Such an event would have no impact on the earnings estimates or forecasted growth rates for any of the companies under our coverage. B. In addition, none of the companies have any direct receivables exposure to SCE. C. Finally, we believe reserves taken against accounts receivable balances from the CalISO and PX across the sector adequately mitigate exposure to potential bad debt writedowns. 3. Updated Accounts Receivables Exposure Included Included in the note are updated details on the accounts receivables exposure of all the IPPs with California operations.

Dan says we need to file this Friday to make sure we meet the 10-day requirement in the statute. Will be trying to get individual customers to sign on as well. Already have call in to UC/CSU attorney. -----Original Message----- From: Dan Douglass [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, September 23, 2001 12:08 AM To: ARM; Gary Ackerman; Vicki Sandler; Anderson, Robert; Merilyn Ferrara; Max Bulk; John Yurkanin; Steve Huhman Subject: Draft Application for Rehearing Attached for your review and comment is a draft application for rehearing of the Commission's Thursday Decision 01-09-060 suspending the right of direct access. Although we have prevailed (at least for now) on the issue of retroactivity, the decision still violates various provisions of state and federal law. If any party wishes to preserve the right to legally challenge this decision, it must file an application for rehearing within ten days. The attached draft is tentatively dated September 28, meaning that it would be filed next Friday. The primary reasons cited for why rehearing should be granted are as follows: The Decision violates procedural due process guarantees. The failure to hold hearings violates Public Utilities Code section 1708.5(f). The Commission's reliance on material outside the record violates due process. The Decision violates the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution. The threatened retroactivity is contrary to law and in excess of the Commission's authority. The Commission acted contrary to law and in excess of its authority. The Decision's purported findings are not supported. The Commission has impermissibly converted a ratemaking proceeding into a quasi-legislative proceeding. Although WPTF members have not had an opportunity to consider whether they wish to support such a filing, WPTF is included as a named party in the attached because of the fact that AReM and WPTF have jointly made numerous other filings in this proceeding. WPTF members will need to determine if they wish to support this effort. I look forward to seeing your comments. Thanks, and have a gtood weekend! Dan Law Offices of Daniel W.

It would remain in place for the near term (through Summer, 2001 and beyond) and includes changes to existing ISO practices as well as an expansion of the ISO's responsibilities. Because of the need to move quickly so that the plan can be implemented by this summer, we will be unable to hold a full stakeholder review process. But, we do want to discuss the plan with you so that you can understand the proposal and the reasoning behind it. The ISO will post this plan on the ISO web site at http://www.caiso.com/stakeholders/ <http://www.caiso.com/stakeholders/> , by COB tomorrow. In addition, we will host a conference call from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. PST this Friday, March 9, to discuss the plan with you and clarify any outstanding issues. We then plan to request the Board's approval for this plan on March 15th in order to be able to implement the plan by summer.

"We are pleased that this proposal would allow PG&E to pay the tens of thousands of small businesses who are owed money -- in full, with interest. These firms, through no fault of their own, have been hurt by this energy crisis, and should be made whole -- and will be, under this proposal." "We are particularly pleased that PG&E's plan does not include any kind of rate increase. With our economy hanging in the balance, the last thing California consumers or small businesses need is higher utility rates. The plan also will provide consumers with power pricing stability -- by locking in long-term prices for power at a relatively low price. This will benefit all customers by establishing fair prices that won't spike over time." "Finally, it is critically important to note that the plan is designed to return PG&E to financial viability so that the State of California can get out of the power procurement business, which has been taking funds away from other economic and social programs. The plan also does not require any legislative action or any financial bailout, so the State's attention and funds may once again be focused on their appropriate objectives." The California Retailers Association is a trade association representing major California department and specialty stores, mass merchandisers, grocery, chain drug and convenience stores. Our members have more than 9,000 stores in California and account for more than $100 billion in sales annually. =====================================

If Danny asks, let him know we're trying to weigh the merits of filing to build an expansion into the state of California. Whether we ultimately build it or not isn't the issue as much as whether the threat of another pipeline could motivate the utilities and the CPUC to build additonal take-away capacity for TW shippers. I think Steve Harris is out of town for the rest of the week. If not, we'll certainly want to plug him in also. Will you let me know in the a.m.? Thanks. =====================================

Regulatory expects to receive confirmation next week that the 1% annual Singapore telecom license fee will apply only to Singapore bandwidth. Given that Asia trading will be centralized in Singapore, we want to make sure that the activities of traders outside of Singapore do not cause the Singapore trading operations to be subject to tax outside of Singapore. In this regard, Asia traders should keep in mind the following general rules: Traders that regularly engage in the execution of trades outside of Singapore will create a taxable presence outside of Singapore that will likely result in double taxation. Traders that regularly engage in the negotiation of trades outside of Singapore will create a significant risk that local tax authorities will assert that such activities created a taxable presence outside of Singapore that would likely result in double taxation. EBS Tax would want to monitor such a situation very closely, so please let us know immediately if these circumstances arise. Traders engaging only in the solicitation of business and the provision of product information (including pricing) outside of Singapore will not create a taxable presence outside of Singapore. In this regard, please note that even if traders restrict themselves to business solicitation, a large scale presence in any given country could attract the attention of the tax authorities who may adopt aggressive positions with regard to the creation of a taxable presence. When in doubt as to the application of these general rules to a specific situation, please do not hesitate to call. Thanks. W.

Several print journalists and 3 TV cameras were present at the conference. Also of interest is that the Senate tax consultants and Burton's staff were at the event. Assemblywoman Hannah-Beth Jackson showed up late and gave a few quotes to the media present. A spokesman from Mirant also gave a few interviews after the press conference. According to Corbett's staff, they expect to handout the bill amendments at the hearing. Among Corbett's comments to the media present: "This bill is not a negotiating tool. I'm very serious about this bill. I want to see it through the process. The Governor will sign a bill like this." The following amendments are to be presented at the committee hearing today as follows: AB 128X 1) Creates a Tax on Excess Gross Receipts from Electrical Energy Distribution (called a "tax on excess greed") 2) Imposes a tax on the first sale of electricity by generators and middlemen. 3) Establishes as the measure for the tax, the amount by which the gross receipts exceed a specified price ("the base price"). The measure of tax is called the excess gross receipts. 4) Creates a 3-tier system of rates as follows: a) Sales price more than the base price but not more than 150% of the base price, tax rate = 50% b) Sales price more than 150% of the base price but not more than 200% of the base price, tax rate = 70% c) Sales price more than 200% of the base price, tax rate = 90% 5) Creates a rebuttable presumption that the base price represents a fair sales price. 6) Adds a mechanism to require withholding of the tax by purchasers. Residential consumers and small business are exempt. 7) Requires sellers to file annual tax returns to report the tax on excess gross receipts and pay any remaining tax due. 8) The measure sunsets after five (5) years. There will be a report after today's Assembly Rev & Tax Cmte hearing. As opposed to SB 1x that returns the taxes raised to ratepayers, AB 128x would "repay" the State's General Fund.

The course is cross-listed between the Haas School of Business and the Energy & Resources Group (ERG) at UC Berkeley. The course is currently limited to 42 students, but it is already over-subscribed, so we are trying to move it to a larger classroom. We'll have mostly MBA students from Haas, but also about a dozen masters students from ERG. There are also usually at least a few PhD students. The students in the class are were very smart -- many of them already have experience in the energy industries -- and we believe the course puts them in a position to immediately contribute to any energy-related organization that they would join. You can see a copy of last year's course syllabus at http://www.haas.berkeley.edu/~borenste/EnergyMarketsSyllabus.pdf Many of these students are interested in either summer or permanent employment starting as early as May. If you have openings that you would like to advertise to these students, please let me know. We will be setting up a webpage with job announcements in energy-related organizations. If you send me a job description (or the URL for it), I can add it to the webpage. Talk to you soon, Severin _________________________________________________________________ Severin Borenstein E.T.

Please treat with discretion. Contact Robert Johnston (x39934) or Kristin Walsh (x39510) for questions or additional info. Bankruptcy Early this week, there was a closed door meeting held by the Western Power Trading Forum in Arizona. The meeting took place outside California to avoid press coverage and allow IPPs to maintain a low profile. Association representatives believe that regardless of what happens with the PUC vs. Utilities ruling expected on Monday, some IPPs will take the utilities into involuntary bankruptcy. Our source expects that absent a significant last minute breakthrough, the filing will happen within the next two weeks, and "probably" next week. As stated in yesterdays report, the IPPs are very low on cash and are not able to cover the debts of the PG&E and Socal. Only three creditors are needed with uncollected debts of more than $10,000 to file involuntary bankruptcy. Bail Out Davis has been meeting with the chief executives of both utilities in a last ditch effort to make a deal prior to Monday's court ruling. The most likely scenario is for state ownership of the utilities transmissions assets. However, coming to an agreed upon price will be very challenging. In addition, PG&E and Edison appear to have competing agendas in pursuing a bail out plan. Davis is expect to continue meetings through out the weekend in hopes of reaching an agreement before Monday. =====================================

The projection is based upon EIA's monthly analysis of delivered gas prices for residential, commercial and industrial customers for selected states (Connecticut, Virginia, Illinois and Texas) for the 1999-2000 winter heating season (Nov-Mar). Assuming pipeline and LDC mark-ups remain constant, the delivered prices were adjusted for the NYMEX Henry Hub projection of wellhead prices for the 2000-2001 winter period. A national projection is also included. Because the commodity portion of the gas bill for residential customers is a smaller percent of the total bill compared to commercial and industrial customers, the increase for residential customers will be less pronounced than for commercial or industrial customers. In addition, LDC purchased gas cost mechanisms will moderate the effect of the price increase to some extent because monthly price increases are averaged out over an extended period (12 months in some cases). Furthermore, some state public utility commissions (e.g. Connecticut) are conducting meetings with LDCs to discuss looking for ways to lessen the impact of the projected increases. That being said, Nipsco recently announced residential prices are expected to increase 50-60% this winter over last winter (in line with the projection for Illinois). If you are interested in a similar projection for other states, or have comments with respect to the above let me know. =====================================

I asked if they agreed to the reduction in the pX credit going forward. She said that they have no customers buying commodity from them, so it doesn't apply. I'm guessing this means that they agreed to Edison's proposal, but it has no affect on them. I asked if they would be supporting SCE's plan at the CPUC. She said "no". We'll see. New Energy and Krogers met with SCE and had the same kind of meeting that we had. Krogers (grocery store chain) had a Sr management person fly out for the meeting and was incredulous with what he heard. So far, they are taking the same position we are.

Edison is sticking to its guns, claiming that all customers, DA and bundled alike, should pay for Edison's undercollection, i.e., they don't owe us money, we owe them money. The call was short and ended with an agreement that: 1) we'll both continue plodding along in the PUC process with all the other stakeholders who are arguing over these issues, 2) we'll keep lines of communication open--to the extend that anyone has any new ideas they want to share, contacts will be made, and 3) if nothing has happened at the PUC by the time Edison starts readying itself to pay people in Q1'02, then we'll get together to try to get agreement on a number as the PUC process continues to work itself out. If anyone has any questions, just let us know. Best, Jeff =====================================

Our alliance partners maintain exclusive control over customer relationships and continue to market power under their own name. Our market-tested and accepted products and services allow your customers to better manage costs, reduce operational and financial risks and focus on their core business activities Our alliance partners do not take on any price risk related to these products.

Subject: RE: Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/sent/4758. ===================================== You need to worry less about Cameron, because I think that it's one of those very deeply rooted Mom/daughter things, and will take time to work out. And I sense a phase that she's going through that is just like the one that my older sister went through with my Mom around the same age (which I wasn't particularly happy about, but I think it's normal, sort of). I'd be happy to talk about it if you want some time. I think part of it is going to be that primordial thing where she's starting her own gig with Scott and it's going to be like a second "breaking away" (the one that comes after teen-age-dom). So it's less about you and much more about her (and Scott, to some degree, too). I hope I'm not confusing matters more.

Of course, much of this may be attributable to the divestment of assets in the oligopolistic generation sector, now competitive, but it is a very fari example of the benefits of competition and should be cited as a counterweight to those arguing that competition is a "failed experiment".

The ACR set forth a "model" for determining revenue requirements for SCE's retained generation. On Friday, SCE, as directed, filed comments on the Ruling. Comments from other parties are due this Friday, the 11th. Of primary importance is that SCE used its comments to promote the methodology for recovery of retained generation costs it had set forth in Advice 1534-E-A (forwarded to you last week). This method provides for an annual rate true-up mechanism and trigger mechanism. Such mechanisms allow for rate increases (or decreases) with the filing of an advice letter. If we are opposed to such trigger / true-up mechanisms we need to submit comments on Friday and/or a protest of the Advice Filing (also due on the 11th).

May be useful for Thursday's meeting. Best, Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Dasovich, Jeff Sent: Friday, September 28, 2001 5:27 PM To: Shapiro, Richard; Mara, Susan; Higgason, Kelly; Wu, Andrew; Smith, Mike; '[email protected]' Subject: Regulatory Risks Tied to DA in California Here's a cut at the taxonomy of regulatory risks associated with Direct Access. Please let us know if the list looks about right. FYI: Sue and I are scheduled to travel to Portland to sit down with Steve Swain & Co. in the attempt to ensure that the folks managing the book are well briefed on the regulatory risks. Finally, note that though the risks listed below are linked to PUC actions, the California Legislature could take actions that could trigger the same risks. For example, the Legislature could pass a bill directing the PUC how to allocate costs associated with the utilties' undercollection, the bonds issued to recover general fund money used to purchase power, DWR's long term contracts, etc. Best, Jeff 1. Retroactive Suspension of DA Contracts: The PUC rules in a subsequent decision that DA is suspended on some date between July 1 and September 20th. 2. Contract renewal forbidden: The PUC includes contract renewal under the suspension of DA. 3. No incremental "DASR'ing": The PUC includes incremental additions and subtractions of DA customer's load under the suspension of DA (e.g., fast food chains, University campus) 4. Cost allocation: The PUC adds new costs to DA accounts and/or disproportionately shifts existing costs to DA accounts. Costs with the greatest risk of being shifted to DA customers include: IOU undercollection, bonds to repay the state general fund, and DWR contracts. The costs associated with these categories are substantial. 5. [Added 10.01.01] Retroactive end to rate freeze: The utilities assert that the rate freeze ended as far back as May 2000 and have sued the PUC in court, asking the court to direct the PUC to end it. Additional suggestions from Mike Day: 5. DASR processing : If the utilities attempt to implement the Commission-ordered suspension in an onerous way, it may put at risk [Dasovich, Jeff] ontracts executed prior to 09.20.01 but not yet DASR'd. 6. Confidentiality of contract information: The utilities and/or the PUC may require ESPs to show contracts as proof that contracts were executed prior to 09.20.01. =====================================

Not only is SDG&E trying to apply the stranded benefits caused by the high market prices for energy from QFs, SONGS ICIP, and Purchased Power Agreements with PGE and PNM, SDG&E is trying to artificially keep the CTC rates charged to retail customers in place in order to accumulate overcollections to apply against its undercollections due to its Energy Rate Ceiling. This amounts to a subsidy from customers who do not benefit from the ceiling, primarily large customers. This is evidenced by the fact that SDG&E expects a TCBA overcollection of $229 million at the end of December 31. 2001 based on CTC rates designed to collect $115 million in 2001 from retail customers per their Application. 99-09-011. (Their is not a decision on this application yet, we may want to file comments if we can.) In the current application filed on October 2, SDG&E proposed to continue with the CTC rates designed to collect $115 million plus expects an overcollection in stranded benefits of $37 million in stranded benefits. An overcollection of $229 million at the end of 2001 combined with an additional overcollection of $152 million in 2002, results in a whopping $381 million overcollection that to apply against their estimated $528 million undercollection from the Energy Rate Ceiling. This has to be illegal; overcharging all customers to benefit a few. Further, I have fundamental problems with the fact the SDG&E is not passing on stranded benefits to all customers while prices are high, because you know that all customers will have to pay the stranded costs when commodity prices are low. We need to do something about the 2001 and 2002 CTC rates that SDG&E plans to put into effect. Roger =====================================

Reid Says 1/24/1 10:51 (New York) (For more on California's electricity crisis, see {EXTRA <GO>.}) Washington, Jan. 24 (Bloomberg) -- President George W. Bush said California can't look to federal help after the expiration in two weeks of two emergency orders requiring power providers and natural gas suppliers to sell into California, Senator Harry Reid said. ``He indicated that the two-week extension was the last,'' Reid told reporters after he and other congressional leaders met with Bush. ``California's problems are lapping over into other states,'' said Reid, a Democrat who represents neighboring Nevada. Bush ``indicated it was a problem that California had to solve for itself.'' U.S. Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham said yesterday he extended the Clinton administration's orders to give California's lawmakers time to make policy changes needed to resolve the state's energy supply problems. The orders were extended through Feb. 6. After that, California must make its own arrangements with out-of-state energy suppliers and no extension will be granted, Abraham said. California Governor Gray Davis, who requested the extension, agreed with Abraham that no further extensions will be necessary, the Energy Department said. --Heidi Przybyla in Washington (202) 624-1884 or [email protected]/ rdm /wfs Story illustration: For a chart comparing the performance of Edison and PG&E with the Dow Jones Utilities for the past year, click on {UTIL <Index> COMP D <GO>} or enter the command.

Royer [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, September 07, 2001 5:57 PM To: undisclosed-recipients Subject: Action Needed for Veto on Workers' Comp Bill (SB 71) Importance: High To: CMTA Members From: Jack M. Stewart Date: September 7, 2001 Re: Action Needed for Veto on Workers' Comp Bill (SB 71) The Senate concurred in the Assembly amendments to the workers' compensation benefits bill on September 6 . The bill is now on its way to the Governor. The bill, SB 71 (Burton), would cost employers $3.6 billion over 5 years with no substantive changes to help offset the increased cost. The quick passage of the bill by the Senate ends any speculation that Senator Burton may be in a negotiating mood. There was some hope that some negotiation would ensue after the Governor entered the fray on Thursday, August 30 by revealing a $1.5 billion proposal that was significantly less expensive and onerous to employers. However, the proposal caused Senator Burton and his co-author, Assemblyman Calderon, to call a hasty press conference where the governor's proposal was characterized as a slap in the face to labor. Senator Burton predicted that a veto of SB 71 would spark a ballot initiative (that could double employers' costs). He also thought the veto would be an invitation for injured workers to vote for former Los Angeles Mayor Dick Riordan or someone else. Steve Smith, Director, Department of Industrial Relations and the governor's point person on workers' compensation said, "the governor's plan became public only after it was presented to a group of labor leaders and it was intended to stimulate discussion about how best to get a workers' compensation bill that the governor is comfortable with." Smith dismissed the threat of labor turning to someone else in the next election because the governor has stood with working Californians on issue after issue and he would be shocked if they were considering endorsing someone else. Now that the bill is on the Governor's desk, it is imperative that employers write the Governor requesting a veto.

Reuters USA: Calif. utilities seek ISO power price cap cut to $100. ? 10/04/2000 Reuters English News Service (C) Reuters Limited 2000. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 4 (Reuters) - Pacific Gas and Electric Co (PG&E) said Wednesday it is joining with Southern California Edison and a California consumer group to seek a reduction of the Independent System Operator (ISO) price cap for electricity to $100.00 per megawatt hour (MWh) from the current $250.00 cap. PG&E, the utility subsidiary of San Francisco-based PGOCorp. , proposed the lower price cap as part of a broader package of steps it is taking to "make sure the California power market can operate more efficiently," a company official told reporters at a briefing here. Southern California Edison is the utility subsidiary of Edison International , based in Rosemead, Calif. PGOsaid the request was backed by The Utility Reform Network (TURN), a San Francisco-based consumer group that has protested against soaring electricity prices as a result of California's bid to deregulate its electricity industry. The California ISO, established as part of the deregulation effort, oversees the operation of about 75 percent of the state's power grid, serving some 27 million people. The move by PGOand Edison follows a summer of chaos in the California power market, where a shortage of electricity generated within the state and open market power pricing sent the cost of wholesale power to nearly twice its historical average, frequently trading above the proposed $100.00 cap.

You finishing this semester? Anyway, I was reading this press account and was wondering if you new this fellow when you were at Lehman. If so, any insights? Sort of an interesting career path. Say hi to your better half. Best, Jeff ************************************************************************************** California Power Authority Taps SFPUC's Berry as New CFO SAN FRANCISCO -- Bill Berry will soon leave his job with San Francisco's public utility commission to head up finances for California 's newly formed power authority, which is authorized to issue $5 billion in revenue bonds. The board of the California Consumer Power and Conservation Financing Authority on Friday selected Berry as its first chief financial officer. He will start in his new position in early November. The authority was established earlier this year as a result of the state's energy crisis, and is charged with promoting energy conservation efforts and increasing California 's capacity to generate electricity . Berry is currently the assistant general manager of finance and administration at the utility commission, which provides water and sewer services to the city and some neighboring counties, as well as hydroelectric power for San Francisco government operations. Berry has been at the SFPUC since 1999, overseeing finance, personnel and training, information technology, and customer service. He also helped develop the commission's long-range strategic plan and 10-year capital improvement program, which may eventually entail requests for voters to approve more than $4 billion in bonds. Berry worked for a start-up Internet company in Palo Alto from 1996 to 1998 before joining the commission. From 1985 to 1996, Berry was an investment banker at Lehman Brothers in San Francisco, specializing in financing municipal and state-owned power, water, and wastewater systems, according to a release from the power authority. He also managed debt financing, financial planning, investment portfolios, and investor relations while a vice president of corporate finance for the New York Power Authority from 1979 until 1985. He helped develop the authority's first conservation program. In his new postion as CFO, Berry will earn $185,000 annually. Calls to Berry and the SFPUC seeking comment were not returned by press time. =====================================

The upgrades to be pursued by the Depart= ment of Energy will help to eliminate the congestion that currently exists, and provide additional room to move the output from the new power resources tha= t are planned and under construction in the Western United States. =01&We applaud the DOE=01,s efforts to expand Path 15 in order to increase = the flow of electricity between Northern and Southern California. The participation of the federal government in this upgrade will be of substantial benefit not only to California, but also to the entire Western grid, particularly in terms of significantly expediting the permitting process, as well as reducing the overall project cost. =01&Clearly, in addition to California=01,s retail electricity customers, t= here are several other groups that stand to benefit from increased Path 15 capacity - primarily municipally owned utilities, as well as federal and state agencies like the California Department of Water Resources and the Western Area Power Authority. Several times over the past decade, Pacific Gas and Electric Company has attempted to work with these groups on ways to fairly share the costs and benefits of any upgrade. However, in each case, these interests have declined to participate in upgrading Path 15, leaving the cost of making the upgrade to be born only by PG&E=01,s retail customer= s. In at least one case, the California Public Utilities Commission determined the effort to upgrade Path 15 was uneconomic. =01&In the meantime, the utility has made several low cost, high benefit upgrades to Path 15, which have successfully increased its capacity. Furthermore, earlier this year, the utility performed preliminary environmental studies that should help expedite the development of an upgrade of Path 15. =01&Pacific Gas and Electric Company looks forward to working with the DOE = and WAPA to accelerate the development of this needed transmission upgrade.=018 =====================================

We have carefully reviewed your settlement offer and sought clarification where needed. As a result, PG&E is able to accept most of the changes and provisions contained in that proposal, and is offering back a few modifications which we think should allow us to reach closure on a multi-party OFO Settlement Agreement. We encourage all parties to sign this settlement. Our September 24, 1999 response is attached in two forms. One is a summary of the items we agree with and those where we have changes, including the reason for our changes. The second is a revision-marking of the September 15 proposal to show all the specific changes, including some minor edits. We have not included the tariff revisions to support this package, but will provide them once we have a final agreement. At this point, the changes to the prior tariff drafts are straight forward. Also attached is a draft Joint Motion for your review and approval. Our suggested approach is to have Settlement Parties sign the motion as the means of signifying their approval of the Settlement and the need for expeditious Commission action. We have scheduled a Settlement Conference next week on Tuesday, September 28, starting at 10:00 a.m. in Room 308, 77 Beale Street, San Francisco. HOWEVER, the attendance of a couple key parties is problematic, and we may need to move this settlement meeting to accommodate their schedules so we can ensure a productive day. We will advise you no later than Monday morning of the meeting status and possible next steps. We appreciate your continued active participation in this settlement process and look forward to your feedback on our modifications.

Thanks. As you all know, Enron has been actively participating in an industry-wide collaborative effort, working to develop recommended Uniform Business Practices (UBP) for Retail Energy Markets. This effort was in direct response to the Coalition for Uniform Business Rules (CUBR) report, which was published in September 1999. THE UBP released Volume 1 of a two-volume final report on November 22, 2000. Volume 1 includes recommend business practices for the following topics: Customer Information, Customer Enrollment & Switching, Billing & Payment Processing, Exhibit - Billing Services Agreement, Load Profiling, Supplier Licensing, Market Participant Interaction( MPI): Governing Documents and Performance Standards, Exhibit - Outline for Master Service Agreement, Disputes Between Utility and the Supplier, Customer Inquiries, Exhibit - Customer Account Maintenance and Glossary. Also included in the document is an Introduction and a Preface. We would like to promote the use of this UBP report as a key item to be included in Enron's advocacy efforts for state restructuring legislation and commission implementation proceedings. This report can be downloaded and printed from the following website: http://www.ubpnet.org/workshop/index.htm . If you would prefer to receive a printed copy of this report, please e-mail me with your request and we will make the necessary arrangments for the report to be printed and distributed. Volume 2 which will address unbundled electricity metering will be published by year-end 2000. I will let you know when this portion of the report is available. Also, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding this report or if you would like assistance in promoting the use of the UBP report within the various states. Vinio Floris, who has recently joined our group, will also be working with me to promote the use of this report. Barbara Hueter is also devoting time to this project by participating with other Suppliers in developing and implementing a consumer outreach program. =====================================

Hackney indicated there would be a revised "principles" piece before long, so maybe we'll just have to wait. They do have some legitimate concerns - if they're going to invest in distribution system upgrades, they need to know what's going to stay in ratebase and what's going to be competitive. There is a danger that the rules will remain so murky that nothing will get done by anyone - something akin to a reluctance to invest in generation so long as the ISO screws around with must run contracts and congestion management schemes. We would probably all benefit by knowing what the rules are going to be going forward. On the other hand, it's hard to believe that SCE and the others don't want to nail down everything in sight for themselves. However, there appears to be a growing understanding that the farther they try to reach, the more uncertainty they produce - they can't have it both ways. Sooner or later there is going to have to be some consensus on what stays regulated and what goes competitive. Don't know what you think the chances are that it will be sooner, but at least it seems SCE is indicating a willingness to engage in meaningful discussions that I haven't seen before.

Subject: President Clinton Press Conference Coverage Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/729. ===================================== Please see following news article and White House press release: Clinton Offers Federal Funds for Electricity Woes in California 08/23/2000 Dow Jones Business News (Copyright (c) 2000, Dow Jones & Company, Inc.) WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- President Clinton will direct federal agencies to provide financial assistance to low-income families and small businesses in Southern California to help them cope with high electricity bills, the White House said. California utility regulators earlier this week imposed a partial rate cap on electric bills for San Diego residents, responding to public panic about power prices that have more than doubled this summer because of volatility in the state's deregulated energy market. The deregulation of California's $20 billion power market was supposed to lower prices by creating greater competition. But demand for electricity has outstripped supply because of a booming economy and less power available from other areas. Clinton ordered the release of $2.6 million from the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program to help low-income families while the Small Business Administration will urge its lending partners to use SBA credit programs to help small businesses with their energy costs. In addition, Mr. Clinton has called on Energy Secretary Bill Richardson to ask the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to speed up an investigation into the wholesale market for electricity "so that state and federal regulators and policy makers can have the information they need to protect consumers in a timely fashion." Mr. Clinton's actions mark the second time this summer the president has stepped in to help California cope with its electricity shortages. Earlier, the president called on all federal facilities in California to cut their power usage and to direct power back into the electricity grid.

Let's face it, California's gas industry is a mess for the same reasons the electricity industry is a mess (despite, and perhaps contrary to, the substantially more narrow reasoning offered by the Brattle Group). The CS is a well-thought-out, well-designed program for moving forward; unlike the "interim," which takes two steps back. Can we split up the names of all the people who signed on and call them and try to get them to show up in support? Best, Jeff Tom Beach <[email protected]> 05/14/2001 11:37 PM To: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] cc: Subject: Re: Commission OII Hearings Watson has asked for time to speak. I'm planning to continue to support the CS. It brings some greater stability and certainty to SoCalGas' noncore rates. The allocation of backbone capacity might improve shippers' certainty of being able to move gas through Topock and Wheeler Ridge. In the short term, it's hard to say how much that might help prices, but I doubt that it would make them worse. In the longer term, if new generation on the PG&E and Kern / Mojave systems, plus the North Baja and Questar lines, actually reduce SoCalGas' throughput, then a SoCalGas city-gate market might be pretty competitive. Finally, the CS removes SoCalGas' favorite argument in favor of the peaking rate. So what are Edison and Enron going to do?

Subject: Rebuttal Testimony in the Hydro Proceeding Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/4436. ===================================== Roger -- As we talked about yesterday, we need to make a determination as to whether to file rebuttal testimony in the latest round of the PG&E hydro case. The sooner we make this determination the better so that MRW will have sufficient time to conduct any necessary discovery and hone their preliminary analysis. On the issue of valuation, there are now basically two "numbers" which have been presented to the Commission for consideration. The TURN/ORA analysis sticks with their $2.7 billion valuation (credited to the TRA), with 100% ( or something close there to) of the ongoing profits from the operation of the facilities (by PG&E) to be flowed through to ratepayer. PG&E (using Lehman Brothers) has also conducted a DCF analysis which results in a market value range of $3.7 to $4.5 billion (the analysis was done based on an assumed date for the transaction was January 1, 2001). The testimony states that the range of $3.9 to $4.2 billion is most reflective of the valuation which likely bidders would pay in a competitive auction. The preliminary analysis done by MRW (which you should have received via e-mail late in November), resulted in a current market value of the assets being $4.7 to $4.9 billion. MRW utilized the ORA/Turn model but revised the underlying price forecasts and the assumptions regarding ancillary services. Given the way the Commission is leaning these days (as represented by the recent PD on Mohave), there is a good chance that PG&E will not be allowed to auction off these assets, but must retain them. Therefore, the issue then becomes does the Commission go with a low valuation, with ongoing profits going to ratepayers (as proposed by TURN/ORA), or do they go for a high valuation, which would allow PG&E to make the valid argument that ongoing profits go to shareholders. The rest of the parties in the proceeding are not focusing on the valuation as much as they are market power and environmental issues. In other words, the likelihood of alot of opposition coming in on the TURN/ORA proposal is very low. If we are of the opinion, that the valuation should be high (even if the assets remain with PG&E), then we need to do some rebuttal. If you would like me to set up a conference call early next week with MRW and anybody at Enron you think should be involved, let me know. Given that the holidays are only a couple of weeks away, we did to reach some conclusions pretty fast. Jeanne =====================================

Subject: Enron Turns Internal Credit-Risk Tool Into New Product Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/sent/3968. ===================================== Thought that you might find this interesting. Best, Jeff Enron Turns Internal Credit-Risk Tool Into New Product 2001-04-04 17:19 (New York) By Christina Cheddar Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--With the number of corporate bankruptcies on the rise, knowing the creditworthiness of one's customers is becoming more and more important. For Enron Corp. (ENE), the world's largest energy trading company, keeping track of credit risk has always been part of doing business. That became even more true with the company's launch of EnronOnline, its Internet-based commodities trading network. In order to deal with the accelerated volume and speed of transactions on EnronOnline, the company developed a tool to help its own commercial traders manage the credit risk. Early last year, Enron rolled out this tool, Enron Credit, on a limited basis. Gradually, the company expanded its use and scope. Last month, the company re-launched Enron Credit in its current format. Enron Credit tracks more than 10,000 companies, giving each a rating known as the "Enron cost of credit." The rating is expressed as an interest rate. The Web site also provides news, a company's expected chance of bankruptcy and other related information. While much of this information is free to registered users, Enron also has turned the product into a new revenue stream. Users may download data into a spreadsheet and receive periodic updates for a fee. The site also can sell a user a "digital bankruptcy swap," which is a way to hedge against credit exposure. The price of the swap is determined by a rating Enron's staff assigns to a company and the amount of credit exposure a company needs to protect against. For a supplier, the main advantage of a swap is that if a customer is unable to pay due to bankruptcy, the supplier will be paid immediately. According to Enron Europe President John Sherriff, the goal of Enron Credit is to create a more efficient credit market by increasing trading liquidity. The tool is important because "in just a short amount of time, a company's credit can go from stellar to bad literally overnight." At present, some analysts haven't factored in revenue from Enron Credit into their earnings models. However, as the commodity markets Enron trades in mature, it is possible the need for products such as Enron Credit could increase. -By Christina Cheddar, Dow Jones Newswires; 201-938-5166 =====================================

Subject: Brief Updates - DSTAR/AISA/WIO Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/notes_inbox/931. ===================================== DSTAR: The Board meeting is being held today and tomorrow. The board consultants have been working with the six IOU's to submit a joint filing on the 16th that will consist of a letter and supplemental summaries of each proposal. They are not asking for approval or submitting tariff language but simply providing a status report. The consultants indicated that they are also including a list of unresolved issues which turned out to be a fairly contentious topic as they are not including a majority of the SWPTF comments. Our position was to include all issues or none at all. The consultants are holding meetings next Wed-Friday to discuss the issues and prepare for a Board briefing on October 30 where all parties will have an opportunity to be heard. The Board hopes to make final decisions on the outstanding issues at the November meeting in order to have a tariff filed by the December deadline. AISA: Filed an answer in response to the Arizona Irrigation Districts Motion to Reject the AISAA Filing and other motions to intervene. The AISA successfully lambasted the irrigation districts citing their substantial participation in the process and questioning their motive in what is exclusively a retail access initiative. The irrigation districts are exclusively wholesale and are in fact not even wholesale transmission customers of any AISA participating transmission provider. The filing also requests the FERC to separate approval of Phase I and Phase II features as the limited concerns raised by the few portesters were focused on Phase II features of the protocols manual. AISA requests FERC act on Phase I so the marketplace can immediately take advantage of the pro competitive benefits associated with Phase I and in particular the temporary transmission rights allocation and the fast track ADR process. This request includes a stipulation that if the FERC decide to act in Phases, that it act on Phase II features no later than April 15, 2001. ** The filing also addresses Judge Campbell's minute entry on the Retail Electric Competition Rules and interprets the fair value determination to be associated with retail sales by ESPs and NOT FERC-jurisdictional services. WIO: NRTA has confirmed that they do not intend to merge with the other entities into the WIO but will support its formation. They may have certain requirements if they wish to be a steering committee member, however. =====================================

Subject: PGE Helps Out Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/10601. ===================================== Glad to see we're doing our part to help the West's energy crisis... we can milk the heck out of this story :-) kd PGE wants to convert manure to methane 04/03/2001 Associated Press Newswires Copyright 2001. The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved. SALEM, Ore. (AP) - Oregon's energy future may be chewing cud in Bernie Faber's pasture. His 500 cows will provide tons of manure to be converted to methane to generate electricity in a pilot project operated by Portland General Electric. The project is expected to generate about 100 kilowatts of electricity - enough for about 65 homes - by July. "When you consider how many dairy farms there are in Oregon, this could be a significant source of power," said PGE spokesman Mark Fryburg. About 89,000 milk cows were reported on state farms in 1999. PGE wants to perfect the technology at Faber's Cal-Gon Farm. If the company succeeds, small-scale power plants could become commonplace at Oregon dairy farms. "We would love to be able to engineer and design these things so we could do them at smaller and smaller dairies over time," said Jeff Cole, PGE'; biogas program manger. PGE officials also are interested in developing a 4.5 megawatt, methane-powered energy facility in Morrow County that could provide energy for about 3,000 homes. It would depend on manure from dairies relocating to the area to support a Tillamook County Creamery Association cheese plant. The disposal of livestock waste has become an expensive and complex problem for farms as environmental regulations tighten. A typical dairy cow produces about 150 pounds of waste each day. Methane-powered generators, such as PGE's project, reduce the odors associated with dairies and create useful byproducts: a nitrogen-rich liquid fertilizer and an odorless dry fiber that can be used to make potting soils. At Faber's farm, construction of a 28-foot high concrete tank where waste will be converted into methane is nearly complete. PGE officials compare the tank to a giant stomach, where bacteria in manure continues the digestion process and produces flammable methane. A modified, internal combustion engine will burn the methane for fuel and drive power turbines. After the manure is processed, the leftovers will be pumped through a solid separator, taken off site, and composted. Liquids will be stored at a lagoon at the dairy.

Subject: Re: san diego Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/9930. ===================================== Here are notes on 43x that Harry Kingerski put together. Jim Regarding proposed rate freeze for large SDG&E customers at 6.5 cents: Adds to DWR's burden of covering the net short positions without any further clarification of how shortfall will be funded. 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. I don't think that we have any real facts about usage increases due to the bill, only the general understanding that if prices don't rise people won't take any real action. Jim?

However, you are very kind to consider my perspective on the group and project. I am certainly a bit frustrated with how this project is turning out. We should have "white boarded" our ideas and reached consensus in the very beginning I think. It would have saved all of us time. I'm counting on Mark to drive this home for us smoothly.

It's clear to me that you're a bit frustrated, and if I've contributed, I apologize. You've done the most work on this project, your contribution has been very significant, and I personally am not satisfied about the way that the stuff you've pulled together (and your views) have been included. At some point, though, it gets tough beating one's head against the wall. Seems to me that, in a group, everyone should have some of their views included---that's what groups and compromises are all about. After all, it's school. We've made a lot of sacrifices to do it, and the point is to learn. Anyway, I hope you'll still comment on the presentation, and I'm glad that you've agreed to do part of it on Thursday. For my part, I felt that I pushed yesterday about as much as I'm prepared to push and at this point, I'll put the ratios tables together, offer a few edits, buy don' t see much use going to the mat. Overall, I think it'll be an okay presentation, though getting there has been, well, bumpy. But thanks very much for all the work you did. It was important, and the presentation is better off for it.

We look more reasonable and agree to much of what UDCs are proposing. 2. Accommodates most, if not all, of ESP and customer concerns. 3. Strong argument for avoiding any contract review.

NGI's Daily Gas Price Index published : August 24, 2001 FERC's Wood Looking for a Few Good Executives Chairman designate Pat Wood III is looking for a few good energy executives to teach him and his FERC colleagues the ins and outs of the natural gas and electricity markets, specifically how to detect when something "smelly" is taking place. He's willing to pay a maximum salary of $133,700 -- which is what he'll be making as chairman -- for up to 10 executives who are interested in the task. That's the "top payment" that Congress will allow, Wood noted. He's also looking to hire an unspecified number of executives at a salary in the $115,000 range. Potential applicants should call him directly at (202) 208-0388, Wood said during an interview with NGI Thursday. "We've tried like crazy to get people. We can't compete on dollars...Government never competes on dollars. You got to get people who believe in this thing. There are people who want to do...something good for the [public]. I'm going to find those people," he noted, adding that this was a top priority with him. For interested executives, Wood said, "I'm going to give you the top [salary] I can pay you in the U.S. government, and I'm going to give you a helluva great workload in a critical industry that everybody in America depends on." He wants the executives to show him and the other four Commissioners "how it works." For example, "hedging and derivatives are great words" that are often tossed around, but Wood would like to know exactly how they work. "All five of us need to know everything about this business." Wood acknowledged that the new Market Observation Resource Center, which enables FERC to monitor the markets on a real-time basis throughout the day, has been a great addition at the Commission, but he says the agency needs people to decipher the data that it generates. "Getting the data is one thing, but having somebody that can assimilate that into something that tells you a story" is what FERC needs. He firmly believes that reported incidents of price manipulation and other market-power abuses will drop as the Commission's knowledge of the markets grows. "As we get smart on this, they won't try this stuff," Wood said, adding that it will "let them know [that] we're watching." Still, he admits that spotting price manipulation won't be easy for the Commission. "I think it's hard...even if you're really good at it." =====================================

Subject: Fiber to India Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/217. ===================================== Category: Enron India, iNdia, Telecom data network, Fiber optic, Flag Telecom Description: Enron India Says Company Close To Deal For Telecom Data Network Detail: 11/29/1999 Dow Jones Business News (Copyright (c) 1999, Dow Jones & Company, Inc.) NEW DELHI -(Dow Jones)- U.S. energy giant Enron Corp. has signed a memorandum of understanding with an undersea-cable operator and is in advanced negotiations for a separate venture to build a fiber-optic telecommunications network, Sanjay Bhatnagar, chairman and chief executive officer of Enron India Ltd., told Dow Jones Newswires. The two projects are central to an aggressive foray by Enron (ENE), already known in India for its high-profile energy investments, into communications services. Just as it is doing in the U.S., Enron hopes to build in India a national broadband network to improve data communications, including the use of the Internet. Initially, Enron aims to build a high-bandwidth backbone connecting seven large cities, each housing a data center -- a large bank of computer servers to facilitate Internet applications, such as hosting Web sites to cut time and cost for Indian Internet users. Bhatnagar said that Enron has signed an MOU with FLAG Telecom, which operates a network of submarine cables, to connect Enron's "Indian network to the world." The first leg of that network will be a high-capacity fiber-optic connection between India's capital, New Delhi, and the country's financial center, Bombay. Enron is currently finalizing a joint venture with Ircon, the construction arm of India's state-owned railways, to build and operate the New Delhi-Bombay link. "We are in the process of negotiating the detailed agreement," Bhatnagar said, adding that he believes the joint venture agreement will be signed within two months. Ircon is to hold a 50% stake in the joint venture, with Enron, British Telecommunications PLC (BTY) and Indian conglomerate Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. holding minority stakes. Bhatnagar said Enron is negotiating with several potential partners, which he declined to name, on other pieces of the Indian network. Likewise, in addition to the Indian railways, Enron is speaking with other bodies, including a highway authority, on gaining the right of way to lay fiber-optic cable in other areas of India. It is also likely to team up with private telephone networks and Internet service providers in the target cities. =====================================

Subject: fuel storage tanks Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/deleted_items/454. ===================================== Diesel Fuel Storage Tanks in Los Angeles I pieced together some initial information on the prospect of installing diesel fuel storage tanks in the Los Angeles area. Much depends on the location of the storage facility as well as on the type (i.e. above or below ground) and size of the facility. Listed below are a few agencies that have a hand in overseeing fuel storage tanks. Fire Department The Fire Department requires permits and review of plans for fuel storage facilities. One of three permits applies - division 4, division 5 or special permit - depending on the facility (above ground, below ground, quantity stored, area of storage facilities, etc). The permit paperwork looks quite comprehensive including a range of information from ownership to geological/groundwater measurements. However, once the application is complete, the Los Angeles Fire Department said they usually turn the permit around in a day. The proper fire department to contact depends on the location of the site. [LAFD - 213-485-7543] Los Angeles County Industrial Waste permits are only required for tanks that discharge waste, so for storage, no permit is required. However, the County approves fuel storage for either a spill containment plan or double walled + leak sensor construction. Underground storage of hazardous materials is of concern to the County, but it is unclear where the fire department leaves off and the county picks up. In cities where the fire department does not process permits for fuel storage, the County plays a larger role. [LA County Environmental Programs - 626-458-3517] California EPA License/permit processes seem to have been passed down to local levels, though I believe that EPA has installation and/or engineering requirements for fuel tanks. I was not able to reach a contact, but I was advised to speak with the Engineering Unit - 916-341-5775. Zoning & Building Requirements Zoning restrictions exist in Los Angeles and building permits are required as in any facility. Narrowing the location or locations under consideration for the tanks will help the information search. My initial impression is that this is a comprehensive process, but not necessarily any worse than other cities. The process is unlikely to change - for better or worse - any time real soon.

See this link for all formerly censored language from the DWR contracts: http://www.sco.ca.gov/power_page/contract_info.htm Also, see the summary link. Finally, below is an interesting article about the real cost of the contracts. Connell: Power cost twice Davis' figure July 6, 2001 By JOHN HOWARD The Orange County Register SACRAMENTO -- The average cost of electricity purchased under $43 billion of worth of state contracts is actually more than double the amount reported by Gov. Gray Davis' administration, state Controller Kathleen Connell said Thursday. Connell said her staff's analysis put the per-megawatt average at $170, compared with $69 to $79 estimated by Davis. Connell stopped short of suggesting that the higher cost could drive another increase in rates, although consumer groups said the higher amount likely would require some future increase. The controller, who writes the state's checks, said her figures assume fixed prices for natural gas over the duration of the contracts, which range from a few months to 20 years. The administration, noting that nearly half its contracts are pegged to the fluctuating market price of natural gas, said costs on many of the contracts would decline over time. Consumer groups were skeptical of the administration's numbers. "You could cut these numbers in various ways and make different averages, long-range or short-range contracts, peak power or nonpeak, and probably either average could be defended mathematically," said Nettie Hoge of The Utility Reform Network. "We can't tell you whether it's $69 or $170 - the contracts are very convoluted and complex." =====================================

Subject: IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS: QF PRICING/NON-PRICING TERM AGREEMENT AND Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/8375. ===================================== Attached are the latest versions of the PG&E QF Pricing/Non-Pricing Term Agreement [1/19/01 DRAFT WASHINGTON DC SUMMIT ON CALIFORNIA ENERGY CRISES: PG&E AND QF PARTIES BLUEPRINT FOR RESTRUCTURING OF ENERGY PRICING] and the PG&E/QF Forbearance Agreement [DATED 1/19/01]. This documents are essentially final form, but we recognize the potential need for future discussions. The goal, however, is to have the QF parties circulate these documents to their principals, lenders, etc. over the weekend for review. Regarding the QF Pricing/Non-Pricing Term Agreement AS IT PERTAINS TO NON-GAS FIRED QFS, we are seeking some type of letter, email, sent by a QF Party, under cover of Confidentiality, NO LATER THAN 10;00 A.M. (PST) ON MONDAY, JANUARY 22 which would indicate how many MWs and at what price the QF industry would be willing to deliver to PG&E pursuant to the QF Pricing/Non-Pricing Term Agreement. INCLUDED IN THIS ."PROPOSAL: LETTER OF COMMITMENT" SHOULD BE CLEAR LANGUAGE AS TO WHETHER THE PRICING PROPOSAL IS CONTINGENT ON THE SUCCESSFUL RESOLUTION OF THE NON-PRICING MATTERS, PERHASPS SPECIFIYING WHICH ONES INCLUDING CREDIT ENHANCEMENTS. THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR PG&E TO KNOW WHETHER WE HAVE CRITICAL MASS AND WHAT THE LIKELY AVERAGE PRICE MIGHT BE FOR NON-GAS FIRED QFS. THIS WILL BE AN IMPORTANT INPUT INTO THE CPUC "ALL PARTIES" QF MEETING SCHEDULED FOR MONDAY ON JANUARY 22 AT 1:00 TO ADDRESS SRAC MATTERS. All proposals of "letters of commitment", which will be non-binding pending signature on January 28, should be forwarded to PG&E as a Good Faith Offer. These proposals should be sent via email to Keenen O'Brien, PG&E, at the following email address: [email protected] Regarding the Forbearance Agreement, all parties understand and agree the importance of a credit enhancement to make this work. At present, the concepts of the credit enhancement are undergoing PG&E senior management review. For now, the concept is provided in the Forbearance Agreement as a placeholder pending this review. As the documents contemplate signatures no later than January 28, the lack of this language now hopefully will not detract from companies' ability to make proposals of commitments under the QF Pricing/Non-Pricing Terms of Agreement. The next meeting with PG&E is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on Monday, January 22, at PG&E. <<dkknongas1.doc>> <<third forbearance agreement (no guaranty).doc>> - dkknongas1.doc - third forbearance agreement (no guaranty).doc =====================================

Subject: Gas Accord II: Next Steps Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/1574. ===================================== Confidential Settlement Document CPUC Rule 51 ALL PARTIES: Thanks to the many parties who attended our Gas Accord II kick-off meeting on September 14. We thought it was a good start toward a collaborative settlement process. This e-mail summarizes the next steps identified at the meeting. First, the list of the issues identified by the parties is being sent by a separate e-mail transmittal today to those parties who have agreed to abide by Rule 51. We are continuing to assemble the issues list, and would like any more issues that parties wish to raise sent to us by this Friday, September 22. This is not to limit issues, but rather to build our workshop presentations and discussions, and ultimately our settlement proposal. If you are not on the Rule 51 list and wish to be added, please complete the Mailing List Information form below. Also attached is a copy of CPUC Rule 51. Second, attached is an updated schedule for the Gas Accord II workshops. Please note, the November workshop has been moved to November 7-8 (which is Tuesday and Wednesday), instead of the week following as we had originally proposed. We request that you please hold the attached dates on your calendars if you plan to be active in the settlement discussions. Based on the issues list, we suggest the following topics for the first three workshops: * September 27: Reliability, for both facilities and supply. * October 11-12: Market, cost and rate data. * November 8-9: Market operations, including core issues, balancing, open season rules, and information disclosure. Please let us know if this workshop plan does not work for you. Third, PG&E will provide a basic set of market data and preliminary cost data to all of the Rule 51 parties in advance of the October 11-12 Workshop. This will help parties to identify and analyze their issues. After seeing this data, to the extent there are other information requests, please send them to Frank Lindh (e-mail to [email protected] or Fax to 415-973-5520). Again thank you for your participation in the Gas Accord II Settlement Process. We look forward to our upcoming workshops and discussions. Please feel free to call us if you have questions.

Subject: Enron Support from OC Register Editorial "...side with the law Sender: [email protected] Recipients: ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]'] File: dasovich-j/all_documents/28858. ===================================== In case you didn't see it 7/16/01 -- Palmer quoted Senate power play jolts Enron 'The whole thing stinks to high heaven." That was the assessment Adrian Moore, executive director of Reason Public Policy Institute, gave of a state Senate committee's recent move to hold Enron Corp. in contempt for refusing to hand over subpoenaed documents. We're inclined to agree. The Texas-based energy merchant has filed a countersuit in Sacramento Superior Court, arguing that the Senate has no right to wield influence beyond state borders and that putting the documents into public view "jeopardized confidential business information," the Register reported Thursday. The court should order the Senate either to make its document request more specific or to drop the contempt charge and subpoena altogether. Robert Levy, a constitutional law expert at the Cato Institute, told us that Enron's point about disclosing confidential information will be its strongest argument in court. While Enron can't hide behind state borders, Levy says the Senate's request is not tailored narrowly enough to ensure information that could damage Enron's market viability is not released. He said the Senate should have to let a judge decide whether releasing the documents is necessary for its investigation and avoids unfairly harming Enron. Instead, the full Senate just has to approve the committee's recommendation for Enron's executives to become criminals. "It seems to me that's a scary proposition," Levy said. "Why should the Senate have such plenary power?" Good question. Moore told us it's because the energy crisis has created an "all-bets-are-off" situation in Sacramento, where anything goes so long as it's attacking the energy companies. Because Enron is just a merchant, not a producer, of energy, it couldn't have had much at all to do with manipulating the market. "It's impossible," Enron spokesman Mark Palmer told us Friday. "We don't have anything to withhold. We don't have an interest in high prices in California. We're just interested in a marketplace that works." Added Moore, "It's pretty hard to spin a realistic scenario where they (Enron) engaged in gouging." Moore said a judge's recent ruling that criticized Davis' allegations against energy producers gives hope the Sacramento court very likely could side with the law rather than the witchhunt. Here's hoping he's right. Sue Mara Enron Corp. Tel: (415) 782-7802 Fax:(415) 782-7854 =====================================

They won't know what hit 'em. =20 Best, Jeff -----Original Message-----=20 From: Scott Govenar=20 Sent: Tue 8/28/2001 8:42 PM=20 To: Sharma, Ban; Leboe, David; Eric Letke; Thome, Jennifer; Ken Smith; Bev = Hansen; Hedy Govenar; Buster, Miyung; Guerrero, Janel; Robert Frank; Mike D= ay; Lawner, Leslie; Kingerski, Harry; Karen Denne; Kean, Steven J.; Alan Co= mnes; Susan J Mara; Kaufman, Paul; Jeff Dasovich; Steffes, James D.; Rick S= hapiro=20 Cc:=20 Subject: SBX2 78 - Update The Assembly Energy, Costs and Availability Committee heard and voted on amendments to SBX2 78 proposed by many interested parties. Some passed, some failed and most of them served to further confuse the committee members. Eventually the committee stalled on detailed proposals made by TURN and other consumer groups. During the hearing Hedy had the opportunity to speak to Nancy McFadden and Richard Katz from the Governor=19 s office regarding a couple of issues highlighted by Jeff and Mike Day. Richard said he is willing to make more technical amendments when the bill gets to Appropriations. Subsequently, Hedy and I spoke to D.J. Smith at Jeff=19 s request. D.J. agreed that the = bill needs to use the August 24th date as a grandfather date for executed DA contracts, but specifically asked that we (Enron) not speak to Richard abou= t it. He said he will have the business entities request it as a clarifying amendment. If we request it, he thought Richard would be less likely to believe it's clarifying since he believes our motives to be too self-serving. Also, we spent some time with Lenny Goldberg on direct access. We suggested that =1C shall=1D be changed to =1C may=1D in order t= o give more leeway to the PUC on direct access suspension. He didn=19 t necessarily op= pose the policy, but his position is not to amend a bad bill unless you can totally rewrite it (which he later attempted to do). A lobbyist for a significant generator told us that they are prepared to push Edison into bankruptcy (along with the Canadian government) if this bill passes. There is no consensus that this measure will ever get to the Governor=19 s desk. The committee will meet again tomorrow at approximately 1:30 p.m. to vote o= n additional amendments and ultimately to vote on the complete bill. =====================================
