FUTURE OF REGULATION
WASHINGTON
Bill could erase price list requirement for competitive carriers

The Utilities and Transportation Commission has forwarded a bill (HB
5380) to the Legislature that would give the commission the ability to
waive the requirement that competitive carriers file a price list with
the WUTC.  The commission staff explained to TR that under current law,
competitive carriers must file either a tariff or a price list.  This
bill would give the commission the discretion to determine whether a
price list should be filed.

The staff said that if the bill is passed, the commission would follow
up with a rulemaking proceeding, which would allow the industry to weigh
in on whether to modify or eliminate the price list requirement.

The staff said HB 5380 stems from issues relating to competitive
carriers and their pricing.  The staff explained that certain carriers
have quoted customers one price but charged them a different one.  When
questioned by the customers, the carriers said the prices being charged
were included in a price list on file with the WUTC.

HB 5380 also would ensure that competitive carriers and competitive
services are treated equally.  Under current law they are treated
separately, although both have minimal regulation.  For competitive
companies, the commission may waive any regulation, but that's not the
case for competitive carriers, the staff said.  This bill would strike
the statutory language governing both competitive carriers and services
and would write new language treating the two the same.

HB 5380, which was sponsored by Sen. Betti Sheldon (D., District 23),
awaits consideration by the House Economic Development and
Transportation Committee.

STATE & LOCAL GOVERNMENT
MICHIGAN
Parties discuss municipal rights-of-way fee structures

The Public Service Commission is hosting meetings with company and
municipal officials to discuss model regulations and fee structures for
franchise agreements with city governments.  The group held its first
meeting Jan. 18, during which it accomplished several organizational
tasks.  The second meeting tentatively is scheduled for sometime during
the second week of January, a Michigan Telecommunications Association
representative told TR.

In October 2000 the PSC fined the city of Birmingham $10,000 for its
practices regulating use of the municipal rights-of-way.  The PSC fined
the city of Rochester $20,000 for similar violations in December 2000.
(12/21/00 a.m.)

INTERNET
OREGON
Committee OKs digital signature bill

The House Advancing E-Government Committee has approved HB 2040 to
require the Department of Administrative Services to adopt rules for
digital signature use by state agencies.  The Joint Legislative
Committee on Information Management and Technology requested HB 2040 on
behalf of the Oregon Internet Commission.

HB 2040 awaits consideration on the House floor.

TAXATION
ARKANSAS
Bill would outline implementation of federal mobile telecom law

Sen. Jim Hill (D., District 5) has introduced SB 309 to allow the
director of the Department of Finance and Administration to decide how
to implement the federal Mobile Telecommunications Sourcing Act, which
was enacted last year.  The Act allows only local tax authorities in a
customer's "place of primary use" to tax mobile services provided by the
customer's home service provider.

SB 309 would help implement the Act by requiring the director of the
Department of Finance and Administration to determine how to assign the
place of primary use.  The director either could provide vendors with a
database linking taxing jurisdictions to addresses or ask vendors to use
an extended zip code at least nine digits long.

SB 309 also would amend an existing state law pertaining to the levy of
gross receipts tax on telecom services.  The bill would extend the list
of taxable long distance services by adding long distance messages that
originate and terminate outside Arkansas made by wireless phone services
that are billed to a place of primary use in the state.

SB 309 has been referred to the Senate Committee on Revenue and Tax.
Its text is available at

CUSTOMER-AFFECTING
WASHINGTON
Lawmaker would give citizens tool against unwanted telemarketers

Rep. Cheryl Pflug (R., District 5) has introduced a bill to create a
no-call list for citizens that don't want to receive telemarketing
telephone calls.  The state Utilities and Transportation Commission
would set up the list.  Registration would be free.

HB 1402 awaits consideration by the House Technology,
Telecommunications, and Energy Committee.

FUTURE OF REGULATION
MISSOURI
Bill would create e-commerce advisory committee

Sen. Sarah Steelman (R., District 16) has introduced SB 293 to establish
a committee that would advise state agencies on electronic commerce
issues.  The Advisory Committee for Electronic Commerce would operate
within the Department of Economic Development (DED).  The director of
the DED would chair the new committee and appoint 10 other members.
Each member would serve a two-year term.

SB 293 has been referred to the Senate Commerce and Environment
Committee.  Its full text is available at
http://www.senate.state.mo.us/01info/billtext/intro/SB293.htm.

Rep. Bill Luetkenhaus (D., District 12) has introduced a similar bill,
HB 447, in the House.  (1/22/01 2 p.m.)  Its text is available at
http://www.house.state.mo.us/bills01/biltxt01/intro01/HB0447I.htm.

INTERCOMPANY COMPENSATION -- EAS
VIRGINIA
Verizon South to implement second phase of expanded local calling

The State Corporation Commission has approved the second phase of a plan
to expand local calling in several Verizon South, Inc. (formerly GTE
South, Inc.) exchanges in the Norfolk area.  The exchanges include
Boykins, Chuckatuck, Courtland, Crittenden, Dendron, Franklin, Holland,
Ivor, Smithfield, Surry, Wakefield, and Windsor.

In August 2000 the SCC approved the first phase of the expanded calling
plan for exchanges in several local access and transport areas served by
Verizon South and Verizon Virginia, Inc. (formerly Bell Atlantic
Virginia, Inc.).  The companies' expanded calling plan implements a
condition included in the SCC's order approving the Bell Atlantic
Corp.-GTE Corp. merger, which created Verizon.  (11/30/99 a.m.)

The commission received nearly 50 comments from customers in the
affected exchanges, most of them supporting the plan.  Because
implementation will result in "substantial rate increases" for many
customers, the commission ordered Verizon South to issue a notice at
explaining "applicable local exchange service options" customers can use
to mitigate higher basic service rates.  (PUC000204, Joint application
of Verizon Virginia Inc., f/k/a Bell Atlantic-Virginia, Inc., and
Verizon South Inc., f/k/a GTE South Inc. to expand local calling between
various exchanges)

Subject: Re: Coogler's Response

Brenda,

Can you send me a copy of Bruce's response.  Also, we need to meet on Entex
this week as you suggest.  In my discussions with Bruce, he feels that Entex
can account for all of their gas nominations/takes - and that these
nominations are not related to intra-month price volatility.

We discussed having an initial meeting next week.  Then, if it makes sense, I
think we should involve MidCon in the discussions as their imbalances seem to
be a key factor in Entex changing their nominations.   These meetings would
be to seek to develop a working protocol that we could use to improve
communication and establish more definitive criteria for changing
nominations.

The end game would be a final meeting with Entex senior management to agree a
solution to past sins and a way forward.

Brenda,

Matthew reviewed Coogler's responses and brings up the following questions.

We can do one-of-two things at this point.  We can either add the Reliant
responses to our audit report as "Auditee Responses", or we can have Enron
provide answers and possibly have us do some additional work.  The additional
work is dependent on Enron's answers to the questions.

Please advise.

Subject:  Coogler's Response

Rick and Fred:

I hope things are going well up in Salt Lake City.  I have gone through all of
Bruce's numbers today.  I have come up with a few questions that Enron needs
to
answer.

1. Reliant claims that in East Texas the cut off for complementary customers
is
30 Mcf/ day,  does Enron agree?
2. Reliant claims that the "New Technology Contract" overrides  or is an
exception to the Enfolio Master Agreement.  Does Enron agree that this is a
legitimate exception?
3. Reliant claims that all off the industrial mis-classified gas in the
Houston
Division is under "special contracts" with special pricing, and even though
they
are using less than 100 Mcf /day they receive a lower price of 2.71 per MMBTU.
Does Enron agree that this is a legitimate exception?
4. In the Houston Division it appears that Louisiana Pacific only uses gas for
heating in the winter, about three months out of the year.  Is there total
divided by three to find their average usage, or is it divided by 12?  Bruce
divided by three, we divided by twelve.  They are a customer all year, and are
not a new customer, or a customer that has left.
5. Does Enron want to give Reliant leeway on the 100 Mcf rule?  What will the
actual cut off be?  Bruce backs out 137,000 Mcf that was close, but not quite
100 Mcf.

These are the issues that I see.  The first three questions are things that
Enron may have to ask Bracewell and Patterson.  We were not notified of any of
the special contracts that he mentions.  Let me know what I need to do.  If
you
guys have questions for me, it might be easier if we all got on the phone and
spoke about it.  Thanks,

Matthew

I received call from Mart T of SW.   Following are two names with telephone
numbers of SW people in Houston who can arrange a time and access for the
insurance adjustor to see the wet SW generator.

POC's

Willie Smith

and

Andy Kemsley

I would appreciate it if you would let me know when the inspection is
arranged and when it to occur. (A telephone call would work best).    I think
it makes sense for us to have an Enron project management/ technical
representative present.-  Will you have someone from your office present- it
might make sense given the  history on this- your call as to the present of
an Enron RM person being present.   I assume we would have to inform the SW
point of contact the names of the Enron people.

To Mr. Ken Lay,

I'm writing to urge you to donate the millions of dollars you made from selling Enron stock before the company declared bankruptcy to funds, such as Enron Employee Transition Fund and REACH, that benefit the company's employees, who lost their retirement savings, and provide relief to low-income consumers in California, who can't afford to pay their energy bills.  Enron and you made millions out of the pocketbooks of California consumers and from the efforts of your employees.

Indeed, while you netted well over a $100 million, many of Enron's employees were financially devastated when the company declared bankruptcy and their retirement plans were wiped out.  And Enron made an astronomical profit during the California energy crisis last year.  As a result, there are thousands of consumers who are unable to pay their basic energy bills and the largest utility in the state is bankrupt.

The New York Times reported that you sold $101 million worth of Enron stock while aggressively urging the company's employees to keep buying it.  Please donate this money to the funds set up to help repair the lives of those Americans hurt by Enron's underhanded dealings.

Sincerely,

Adrienne Hand


Janine --

Good job.

On the hourly market price index, until we have LMP dispatch, the best we can do is a public index.  Let's not ask for too much.  Just something we can hedge against.  Can you talk with the EWS folks for the best index option???

Also, if the default is a monthly public index, why do the customer's need any "parking"?  They can move directly to the new option.

What is your definition of "functioning wholesale market"?  Are we stating that unless an RTO is running, we can't get rid of the PPO?  Maybe just resolve the Imbalance issue.  More specifics would be helpful.

Thanks,

Jim

Subject:	ICC Meeting

The ICC Energy Committee held a meeting to discuss ComEd's proposal to drop the PPO.  We argued that this should not be allowed until the wholesale market/delivery issues are dealt with because otherwise customers will have no choice but to return to ComEd at the higher bundled rate.  The good news is that a rather lengthy discussion on this issue ensued as a result.  The industrial customer group and Mid American Energy supported our views; however AES New Energy said that this was not a problem for them.

We also commented that once the PPO goes away it should not be resurrected due to the uncertainty it would create in the market.  ComEd responded that under the statute they can not offer to waive the PPO but could negotiate an arrangement on the CTC if approached by the customer.  This would mean that we could negotiate on behalf of all our customers regarding the CTC.

We have the opportunity to file comments to the Commissioners before the actual filing.  A draft is attached.

 << File: Commissioner Terry Harvill.doc >>

If you have any comments, please respond by the end of the week.

Can you have someone send me the list that you said you have provided to suitors of the ENA business?  I haven't seen it yet since we talked this morning.  Bob Hall and I thought that list would be the best one for us to reconcile to for reporting to you and John on resignations.  SInce you have submitted that list, we should also decide on a process for updating that with new names that we would substitute for someone who leaves.

Since I haven't received the list yet, please send it to both Bob Hall and me.  I will be out of the office on Thursday, so Bob will handle the details of a daily report starting tomorrow.

Craig, as promised, attached is the draft LOI that we discussed yesterday.
We will send some hard copies via overnight mail as well.  I have been
talking to Elaine to schedule June 13th, or your soonest available date, for
a follow up meeting in Houston.

We have recently implemented several similar services deals with municipals
and industrials in other regions of the country.  This experience combined
with Enron's strong trading presence in the Northeast will allow us to
develop a proposal for NRG's sizeable Northeast generation portfolio that is
mutually beneficial.

We'll look forward to meeting soon and moving things forward.  Thanks.

Great,

I drive a 93 Honda Accord that is sort of Purple, so be on the lookout. I
will pick both of you up at 12:00 on Friday the 17th for lunch at Irma's on
me. I will pick you up in front of Enron where they usually have that lunch
party event, or in other words, the side street that has the cathedral on
the opposite side facing the Enron building.

Looking forward to lunch,

    Dear Debra and Gerald,

   Lunch at 12:00 on Friday would be great. I was thinking that I could
   pick
   you guys up in front of Enron and then we could go to Irmas in
   downtown(they
   have valet parking). It may take a little over an hour to have lunch,
so
   if
   your schedules for Friday are too busy, then we can go to Ninfa's or
   Treebairds. Looking forward to having lunch.

   Best Regards,

   Majed Nachawati

associated with the Penn Fuel asset management deal and for the release from
South Jersey on Transco.  All of these changes are highlighted in blue.  The

Here is an update of some recent Enron developments.

Enron Europe Closes Certain Operations

Following Enron's credit rating downgrade yesterday and the impact that had on Enron Europe's ability to trade, Enron Europe has asked a court to appoint an Administrator.  What this means is that PricewaterhouseCoopers has been appointed the Administrator to handle the liquidation of the company's major physical assets and trading positions.  This action does not include Enron Credit, Enron Direct, Enron Metals, Teesside Power Station or the utilities and service businesses at the Wilton chemical complex.  It also does not include Wessex Water or power plants in Turkey, Italy and Poland.

Efforts are being made to preserve as much of the business as possible.  There is already interest by outside parties to buy Enron Europe's metals business, and negotiations are expected to lead to a successful deal in the near term.

This action will impact a significant number of Enron Europe's employees.  Every effort is being made to retain as many employees as possible who are part of businesses that may be preserved.

Enron Appoints New Board Member

Yesterday, Enron announced the election of Raymond S. Troubh to the Board of Directors.  Mr. Troubh will chair a newly-formed Special Litigation Committee of the Board to evaluate claims in shareholder and other derivative lawsuits.  He will also serve on the Special Committee set up to investigate all of the SEC-related matters.  Mr. Troubh is a financial consultant in New York City and has been a non-executive director of more than 25 public companies.  Board member William C. Powers, Jr. will also serve on the Special Litigation Committee.

Enron Evaluates Dividends

Today Enron announced that it is evaluating whether previously declared dividends will be paid on Enron common stock and other Enron equities.

New Enron Employee Q&A

A new Q&A has been posted to <http://home.enron.com/updates/> based on recent developments and employee concerns.


This is the oldest of the 2002 files.  Again, look at the "Summary" tab.


Thanks a lot for getting that going, John. I'm sure it'll make Carla happy
not to have my mistakes under her name anymore.

The following schedule has been distributed as noted regarding publishing the
DPR over the next two weeks.  I know that books run in Calgary, Houston, and
Portland will be calculated and officialized on Friday, December 22nd for
trading that day.  The current plan is not to publish the DPR for December
22nd on Tuesday, December 26th, but to wait until the first Enron official
business day to do so (i.e. Wednesday, December 27th).  That will work as
long as trading results for Friday, December 22nd are not dramatic.

Please leave a voice mail message after calcing the books on Friday, December
22nd for Chris Abel (x33102) to give him trading results by commodity for
December 22nd.  If there are dramatic results, Chris may produce a
preliminary and rough DPR on Tuesday, December 26th with the information that
you provide.  For locations that will not calc and officialize books on
Friday, December 22nd, you will still need to contact Chris to give him your
best estimate of trading results.

Thanks for your continuing help in providing timely and accurate information
for the worldwide trading organization.  I hope that all of you enjoy your
holidays.

Sorry for the rescheduling.  Shalesh is unable to make it until late this
afternoon.  Since what we have is informal and not urgent, perhaps we can
catch you for a few minutes just sometime late today or tomorrow before you
leave.  Otherwise, it can wait until you return.

Hi Kent,

I can get a redline done for you if you want to tell me what it should be
redlined against.

I don't know about getting rid of the requirement for the inhouse counsel
opinion.  Maybe after you look at things we can discuss it.

Thanks,

This is not a circular and you will not get another chance.  This deals with migration to new systems and you need to migrate your own information or applications in the next day.  Remember do not delete anything and data to be transferred must comply (see attachments below).

The policy must be complied by Thursday.  Please ensure that everyone in your group has moved everything which is in compliance with the policy.  We will not be delaying close or restart for people not having completed their own migrations.

Please make sure that those people who are not in the office are contacted and comply (eg Dana - please cover Kevin's migration requirements)

Thanks

Joe & FGA Team:

Just wanted to make you aware that there will be a great deal of activity
next week on pipeline safety legislation, with a markup of Senator McCain's
legislation (S. 2438) expected in the Senate Commerce Committee on Thursday,
June 15.

GPG Pipeline Safety VP Dave Johnson will be in DC on Monday the 12th through
Wednesday the 14th, and we are setting up meetings with a number of Senate
Commerce Committee members & staff.   Right now we have meetings planned with
staff for Sens. McCain, Hollings, Gorton, Lott, Hutchison, Frist, Ashcroft,
Burns, Snowe, Breaux and Murray.

INGAA stumbled into good timing by scheduling its "Pipeline Summit 2000" for
Wednesday the 14th at the Hyatt on Capitol Hill, so a number of senior
pipeline execs will be in town and can be called into action to lobby.   Phil
Lowry, Managing Director of Operations for GPG will be speaking on a panel on
Wednesday afternoon.

Also, since there will be a few CEOs in town, we are joining forces with El
Paso and Duke to get some member meetings -- right now we have Sens.
Hutchison and Breaux confirmed for the 13th.   Stan Horton was going to be
traveling elsewhere, but is strongly considering re-arranging his schedule to
come to DC on the 13th and 14th.   As incoming chairman of INGAA next year,
he is very engaged on pipeline safety legislation, and wants to play an
active role at this critical juncture.  I will advise you if Stan confirms
his trip to DC.

If you would like additional information on this issue or our efforts, I will
be at the Government Affairs Meeting in Ontario and will be happy to fill you
in in more detail.


Shirley,

Please, make sure that I follow up on this.

To Mr. Ken Lay,

I'm writing to urge you to donate the millions of dollars you made from selling Enron stock before the company declared bankruptcy to funds, such as Enron Employee Transition Fund and REACH, that benefit the company's employees, who lost their retirement savings, and provide relief to low-income consumers in California, who can't afford to pay their energy bills.  Enron and you made millions out of the pocketbooks of California consumers and from the efforts of your employees.

Indeed, while you netted well over a $100 million, many of Enron's employees were financially devastated when the company declared bankruptcy and their retirement plans were wiped out.  And Enron made an astronomical profit during the California energy crisis last year.  As a result, there are thousands of consumers who are unable to pay their basic energy bills and the largest utility in the state is bankrupt.

The New York Times reported that you sold $101 million worth of Enron stock while aggressively urging the company's employees to keep buying it.  Please donate this money to the funds set up to help repair the lives of those Americans hurt by Enron's underhanded dealings.

Sincerely,

Dave Yost


Tom Beach received the navidad virus in e-mail  yesterday, and it replicated
itself and went out to many (maybe all) of the  people who had sent him
e-mail that he had not yet opened (i.e., unopened mail  in his Outlook
Express in-box).
?
Because the OII and peaking rate filings were  yesterday, you probably sent
Tom e-mail that he didn't have a chance to look  at.? If you have a firewall
system that rejects any e-mail with executable  files attached, you're safe.?
If you don't, here is the URL with the virus  cure:

In Tom's system, I was able to ignore the error  message about the machine
not being able to find "winsvrc.exe," open  his Internet browser, and
download the virus repair file from this Web  site.? It's a relatively easy
fix once that's done.

I'm terribly sorry about this.? Let me know  if I can be of further
assistance.

Subject: Saxet Canales into King Ranch - Balancing issue

FYI -

We are having some "after-the-fact" balancing issues with King Ranch.  I just
spoke with Carol regarding our net position with the plant, she has informed
me that the Saxet Canales production we are buying at the inlet has been
averaging approximately 3,850 Dth/day for January, and has been producing at
or around that level since November.  We don't have eyes at the meter,
however, Carol was brought online this past week, and I will be receiving
production information on a regular basis to balance redeliveries.

We have been scheduling 838 to 1,045 Dth/day at the meter.  We need to gross
up for Jan in order to ensure that we capture our volumes correctly and do
not create additional balancing issues with the plant.

Please let me know if you have any further questions, or need additional
information.

Mary

Unrecognized power plays

These five electric utilities are undervalued and under-appreciated by
analysts. But they offer superior long-term returns.

By Michael Sivy

Given the recent turmoil in the stock market and uncertainty about the
economy's prospects for the rest of the year, many investors have been
diversifying their portfolios with income investments. In March, for
instance, shareholders pulled a record amount of money out of equity mutual
funds -- the last time stock funds saw comparable outflows was in the
aftermath of the 1987 crash. Much of the money has gone into income
investments, and especially bond funds.

Funds that invest in Treasury bonds and other high-quality long-term issues
are especially popular. Personally, though, I think there are better
alternatives that offer higher yields, more flexibility and long-term
growth potential. Preferred shares, for instance, can offer yields of more
than 7 percent, compared with 5.8 percent for Treasuries. (For more
information on these unique investments, see "Preferred shares: uncommon
values").
[ http://www.money.com/money/depts/investing/sivy/archive/001020.html ]
And they generally sell in round lots costing only about $2,500, versus at
least $10,000 for most bonds.

My top income choices, however, are utility stocks, and for one very simple
reason: rising dividends. When you buy a bond or a preferred stock, you
lock in a certain level of return. And since there is always some
inflation, the real purchasing power of your income erodes over time. But
most electric utilities offer long-term dividend growth. Even though
utilities' earnings increases don't look like much compared with the growth
rates of tech stocks, even 5 percent or 6 percent a year will keep you
ahead of inflation -- and eventually outpace the return on bonds (see
"Selecting stocks for income,").
[ http://www.money.com/money/depts/investing/sivy/archive/001016.html ]

One of my top utility picks over the past year has been Duke Energy [DUK],
an electric company based in the Carolinas. In addition to having a
well-run local business, Duke has profited enormously because one of its
subsidiaries provides power to the California market where electricity
prices are soaring. As a result, the stock has gained 50 percent since I
first recommended it last summer. I still think Duke has attractive
long-term prospects, but obviously it's not as good a buy as it was a year ago.

Where are today's best values in the electric utility sector? For the
answer, I turned to the Leuthold Group, a value-oriented investment
advisory firm in Minneapolis that regularly does a quantitative screen for
stocks that are undervalued because they are out of favor. Of the 53 stocks
the most recent screen identified, 10 are electric utilities. Of those,
I've winnowed out five that have solid finances and offer projected
earnings growth of 5 percent or more over the next five years. In addition,
these electric companies have modest P/Es, based on this year's estimated
results.

The five include DTE Energy [DTE] at $43.40 a share. The parent company for
Detroit Edison is in the process of acquiring MCN Energy, a Michigan gas
company, which could boost the combined firms' long-term earnings growth.
In the meantime, DTE pays a 4.8 percent yield and trades at a 12.2 P/E.
FirstEnergy [FE], the holding company for Ohio Edison, is in the middle of
a complicated attempt to acquire GPU, and uncertainty about the deal has
depressed the stock. Whether it goes through or not, at $29.40 a share,
FirstEnergy offers a 5.1 percent yield and a 10.4 P/E.

OGE [OGE] Energy is the holding company for Oklahoma Gas & Electric. At
$22.10, the stock offers a 6 percent yield and a 12.5 P/E. Pinnacle West
Capital [PNW], parent of Arizona Public Service is expanding its generating
capacity in the Southwest. At $49.50 a share, this growth-oriented utility
pays a 3 percent yield and trades at a 13 P/E. Finally, Potomac Electric
[POM] supplies power to Washington D.C. and the surrounding area. The
company is acquiring the Delaware utility Connectiv, in a move that should
enhance long-term returns. At $22.40 a share, Potomac Electric carries a
4.4 percent yield and a 12 P/E and should grow as long as Washington keeps
expanding.

Pete,

I have a question.  Is it necessary for the amount of consideration to be
listed in the final lien form (exhibit R or S, something like that)?  If so,
what amount goes in there?  Will this defeat what we are trying to do in
keeping the original price a supposed mystery?

Thanks,

Kay

Mr. Sanders, as you now have the privilege of handling our litigation, I am
looking for your recommendation on how to staff this from a litigation point
of view will someone in your group or the Corp litigation unit do the
courtroom work?

FYI, Bob Vote helped us on the prior garnishment on EECC filed by Dennis
Delewski against CIGSA, did a fine job, and knows the players, and I would be
glad to have his help again. Please us know what you would like to do.

Randy Pais will work it from within EEOS legal.

I have not yet notified Jim Derrick, thinking that either you or Mark might
want to. I am quite happy to call him if you like.

		 Subject: URGENT STOP PAYMENT: Writ of Garnishment of money due CIGSA served
on EECC on April 10

EECC has just been served with a writ of garnishment from the 333rd Judicial
District Court of Harris County  in connection with a judgment against
certain CIGSA entities. In the writ, the court very unambiguously and very
plainly commands that EECC is not to pay any debt or deliver any property to
CIGSA pending further orders from  the court. The writ was issued to enforce
an judgment  for $1.3 million awarded by the court against CIGSA in favor of
Richard P Estrada. EECC is also commanded to appear before the court and list
all funds/assets in our possession that might belong to CIGSA,  and to
disclose what other persons we know ofif any, that might have such funds or
assets.  The lawyer for Mr. Estrada is the same lawyer who successfully
garnished EECC in the past to collect sums owed other CIGSA judgment
creditors.

Please take this prohibition as applying even to cases where CIGSA might be
entitled to the money or the property under our contracts with them, or where
the funds or property are in joint venture acounts or custody in the US or
Mexico until we have had a chance to review matters in detail and make a more
accurate assessment. In the meantime, effective immediately, do not make ANY
payments to or on behalf of, or release ANY property to or on behalf of, any
CIGSA entity without first obtaining legal department approval. The court may
impose penalties for violations  of its garnishment order.

We will assemble an appropriate litigation team to work onthis matter. Randy
Pais will be handling this for EEOS legal. I suggest that Mike Pearson and
Mark Brand get the word out to the Project Management and Project Control
teams on  this matter ASAP.

Deskheads:

I would like to have a 2 hour team building session for the assistants,
receptionists, and clerks on Friday 5/25/01.  The only thing that will be
charged to your cost center is the cost of a lunch brought in for the
administrative staff.

I know that the assistants usually are out of here between 12:30 to 1:30
being that this is a Friday before a holiday.   I would like to have the
session start at 12:30 so that they can still be out of here by 2:30 that
day.  This would require the phones being on solo pilot starting at 12:30.

Please respond with your approval, questions and/or comments as soon as time
permits so I can set everything up this week.

Many thanks,
Ina Rangel

Business&Finance: ESB ownership of network is questioned - Competition
Authority says separation of national grid from core company does not go far
enough. Arthur Beesley reports

11/13/2000
Irish Times
18
Copyright (C) 2000 Irish Times; Source: World Reporter (TM)

The Competition Authority has questioned the ESB's ownership of the
electricity network in the newly deregulated power market.

In a paper submitted to the Department of Public Enterprise, the body said
the separation of the ESB's National Grid operation from the core company did
not go far enough to ensure fair competition.

It said arguments in favour of the ESB retaining the transmission and
distribution system ignored the 'overwhelming conclusion' that a generation
company which owns such assets 'will naturally favour itself' at the expense
of customers and reliability.

The paper has not been published yet. It is believed to state, however, that
the ESB's retention of its 'non-competitive' transmission and distribution
assets and its 'competitive' electricity generation business was unwise from
a competition perspective.

The National Grid, which controls when individual power stations feed
electricity into the network, was separated from the ESB when 27 per cent of
the market was opened last February.

In theory, this meant the ESB could not favour its own generation stations
over more efficient competitors when deciding which plant to switch on and
off as demand for power fluctuates.

But the authority's response to the Statutory Instrument behind the
separation - which renamed the National Grid as Eirgrid - said more should be
done to ensure the market operates fairly.

The paper said: 'Some argue that as long as there is an independent operator
of the underlying transmission system, ownership of the transmission system
can remain in the hands of an upstream generation operator.

'In accordance with this line of argument, the shift of operational control
of electricity transmission to Eirgrid would mean that discrimination in
dispatch [of power] and other operations would not be possible. However, the
Competition Authority considers that this argument ignores the overwhelming
conclusion that the generation company that owns the transmission lines will
naturally favour itself.'

The Statutory Instrument followed complex talks, which led to an agreement
between the ESB, its trade unions and the Minister for Public Enterprise, Ms
O'Rourke.

When Eirgrid was formed, the ESB retained ownership and responsibility to
develop and maintain the high-voltage national transmission system and the
low-voltage local distribution network.

The authority says these, too, should be separated from the ESB to ensure the
competitive market functions fairly, according to a person familiar with its
paper.

This would ensure equal access to the power network and an objective,
transparent, non-discriminatory treatment of all electricity generators in
the market, it said.

The paper argues the ESB has an incentive to allocate as many costs as
possible to the operation of the transmission and distribution system.
