Subject: Re: Sunday

Andy, Here is what I am aware of regarding availability of EOL for Sunday
Trading.

The first Sunday that we opened for trading (I believe it was 10/1), we
experienced a shutdown of the entire site late Saturday which, unfortunately
included our monitors, which is why we were not aware of it until just prior
to trading time.  Trading was to open at 2:00pm and we had the site up by
aprox 2:15pm.

I am not aware of any issues on 10/8 and 10/15.

This past Sunday, 10/22 we had a problem with a release that we pushed out on
Saturday.  We are working on our release procedures and will make every
effort to have smoother releases in the future.

I hope this answers your questions, if not feel free to give me a call.

I tried to open EOL at 4 on Sunday, but we had systems problems that delayed
the opening until 6:05.  This is the third time in four or five sessions when
EOL had problems on Sunday.  Anything you can do to improve reliability would
be appreciated.

Energy Action Report
MEMORANDUM
 <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
TO:                  Californians for Energy Action
FROM:            KPC Communications & Woodward & McDowell
RE:                   First Newspaper Ad, Media Briefing
Californians for Energy Action2s first newspaper ad appeared this morning in
the Sacramento Bee.  Jack Stewart, president of the California Manufacturers
and Technology Association, and Allan Zaremberg, president of the California
Chamber of Commerce, conducted a successful briefing for Sacramento-based
news media this morning as well to introduce the coalition and the business
community2s perspective on energy issues.
Media that attended the briefing included KCRA TV, California Public Radio,
KFBK News Radio, the Wall Street Journal, the San Jose Mercury News, the Dow
Jones News Service (via telephone), and the San Diego Union Tribune.  In
addition to the briefing, we distributed a news release on the coalition and
the ad to the Capitol Press Corps, which includes all of the major newspapers
in the state.  Additionally, the California Channel taped the entire briefing
and is broadcasting it in its entirety today.
Allan and Jack did a great job focusing the discussion on the issue of direct
access and concerns about maintaining a competitive and healthy business
climate in California.  The questions were generally informed and seemed
accepting of the fact that there are legitimate and serious concerns over the
direction some of the energy debate is taking in Sacramento.
The news release, ad copy, and other coalition material is posted on
Californians for Energy Action web site soon. The address is
www.energyaction.org.

Please prepare and send a termination letter by tomorrow March 16, 2001 on the above referenced deal.  Houston Pipe Line Company has not renegotiated a price and have no interest in buying the gas on an evergreen basis.  It is my understanding that we need to notify them within 10 days of the end of the delivery period

.  If you need any additional information or have any questions, please contact me at 35656.  Thanks.  EMV


I want to take this opportunity before the transfer of Houston Pipeline Company assets and employees to American Electric Power to thank each of you for your teamwork and success in our years together.

Some of you were here when I joined your company in 1984, but many of you arrived during the Enron era and might not know the full story of my arrival.  I was president of Transco Energy at the time and was probably in line to be the chairman.  I did not expect to ever join another energy company.  Yet the directors of Houston Natural Gas felt like a new management team was needed for their company to prosper in a rapidly changing industry environment.  The quality of people I saw at HNG convinced me that the company would be a good platform from which to make major changes.  And the results over the last 17 years could not have been better.

Houston Pipeline Company has been a major contributor to developing Enron into what it is today.  Your professionalism, ideas, dedication and commitment toward this company have been instrumental in making our success possible.  For this, you will not only be a critical part of Enron's history, but you will also always deserve Enron's gratitude.

I wish you nothing but the very best in your next endeavors, even as I am sure you will not need my good luck wishes.  As always, your professionalism and dedication will be your best allies when facing new challenges and opportunities.

Sincerely,

<Embedded Picture (Metafile)>

I just spoke with Kevin and he is certain that his deal on the interest was 8%.  What would the additional adjustment be if the interest were reset to 8% (as opposed to 8.5%)?  Would it be an additional adjustment of $218,000?  Please let me know so that Kevin can broach the issue with John.

I understand and agree with everything, except 8% was the agreed upon interest rate as noted on the economic runs which establised the demand payment between my book and New Albany, LLC.   It is clear that 8% was the agreed upon rate and the true-up needs to be from 9% to 8%.

Stuart -

The approx $6MM of capital improvements were spent January thru June 2000.  The effect is an additional $1.2MM a year of depreciation for 2001.  I am not sure what Kevin is looking at, but Jenny's 2001 Plan had $17.4MM and we are currently forecasting $17.3MM for 2001.

With regard to the Capital Charge issue.  The interest rate that we were told to use by Delainey was 9% - we have since found out that Lavo is using 8.5% - therefore, in June we will credit the New Albany project with $218K of interest.  Again, Jenny's plan showed $11.8 and the 2001 forecast is $11.8(using 8.5%).  The estimate using 8% is $10.7MM.

Finally, there is only $54K remaining in New Albany's major maintenance account.  We stopped booking a per start accrual sometime last year on all of the Peakers since none of the plants except New Albany were using the reserve.  If my memory serves me correctly, Kelley Huntley and Jenny Latham met with Jody, myself and Scott Chambers in OEC to make this decision - and Jenny discussed it with Kevin.  There was nothing planned for major maintenance.

Please feel free to forward this on to Kevin so that he and Lavorato can resolve these issues.  Let me know if you or Kevin need any additional information regarding New Albany.

I am not sure if I mentioned the depreciation issue on the voicemail.  The issue is that there was an increase in the capital cost of the plant (due to additional upgrades and CAPEX that was done after Kevin's agreement with Lavo was cut).  This resulted in an increase in the actual depreciation figures.  Kevin feels that his original deal, based upon the cost of the plant at the time, should be honored.

Hi Nancy,

I've misplaced your direct line - could you email it to me?

The travel schedules of the Enron delegation are becoming complicated.  Would
it be possible for you to travel with us to Richmond tomorrow night?  That
would give us more flexibility in case we need to convene before the meeting
on Thursday.  We are staying at the Marriott in Richmond.

Thanks,

Can you please identify for me by return Email or phone (66474) the person on
your staff to whom I can speak regarding the services your company provides
for Enron customers?

I am putting together a short presentation on "Other Enron Services" for a
conference our TECASO group is hosting to discuss/promote our planned on-line
lender's engineer due diligence services amongst numerous major financial
institutions in early February.  The purpose of this"Other Enron Services"
agenda item is simply to take the opportunity to summarize the multitude of
services offered by Enron for those in attendance who may not be familiar
with some or all of these services.  Accordingly, I'm in the process of
gathering information on the various services Enron has to offer and, in
particular, slides/viewgraphs covering the services offered by your company
which may already exist in order not to have to duplicate prior efforts.

Thank you in advance for your attention to this request.

My preference is to send out the notice as a Staff Meeting w/ Halloween Snacks.  I'd rather it be just us for this meeting.

Shelley,
39C1 is available from 3:00 - 4:00 pm on Tuesday, Oct. 30.  Would you like to have a social get together for your groups?  I was thinking of maybe a Halloween cake and ice cream social.  Maybe even invite marketing.  What are your thoughts?

I'll take two ,,, if possible


Will we be covering this?  The utilities in California have been heavily
engaged in maintaining "fortress monopoly" at home while advocating
"openness" abroad.  Any info showing the discrepancy is useful.  No big
deal.  Just curious.  And if someone does, a very brief update would be
greatly appreciated.  Best, Jeff

Louise:

I enjoyed our meeting this week on Q1 QBR. If you have any follow up questions, please let me know.

Brett contacted me today by e-mail with some cost detail on the Ft. Pierce unit. I plan to get back to him on Monday, but wanted to know if you have reached a decision on how you would like us to proceed with the MHI turbine book. I did have several follow up conversations with Chris Calger on the topic, and he and I are both on board to proceed based on the approach we discussed in our meeting.

Hope all else is well.

Regards,

Ben

Hi Ann,

Thank you for your response. I wanted to propose some different language for your consideration:

WHEREAS, the Gleason Project sustained damage to its exhaust stacks and alleged that Siemens Westinghouse was responsible for such damage because (i) of its failure to, among other things, provide drawings with adequate directions for the welding of those stacks and (ii) excessive vibrations at the Gleason Plant were a contributing factor to such damage.  As a result, Enron presented a breach of warranty claim to Siemens Westinghouse, in May of 2001, under the Contract in the amount of Four Hundred Nine Thousand, Six Hundred Sixty-Six Dollars ($409,666.00) for repair work performed on two of the stacks ("Warranty Issue").

I hope this gets us there.

Thanks,

Kay

Subject: RE: Settlement agreement

Kay:

We are in receipt of Enron's proposed changes to the Settlement Agreement
and Release on the Gleason Project.  Unfortunately, it appears that the
intent of the Settlement Agreement has strayed away from initial discussions
between our respective business representatives.   In past discussions with
Enron regarding its claim for costs associated with reconstruction of the
Gleason CT exhaust stacks, Enron tied its local low frequency noise concerns
to the stack reconstruction issue.  Although the causes for reconstruction
of the stacks were beyond SWPC responsibilities, SWPC agreed that in the
interest of continued customer relations, we would be willing to make a
business policy concession to Enron on the reconstruction costs in exchange
for indemnification on future stack and noise issues.

The latest revisions to the Settlement Agreement deletes any references to
the noise issues in the warranty definition, thereby eliminating any
coverage for indemnification for future claims which may arise on that issue
from the Settlement Agreement.  This elimination substantially erodes the
value of Enron's indemnification, and the settlement overall.  As modified,
the deal is no longer palatable to SWPC, and it is in our best interest not
to enter into the Agreement as proposed by Enron.  Should Enron be willing
to re-insert the language struck from the third WHEREAS paragraph, SWPC
would be willing to sign on to the deal.

Please contact me directly if you wish to discuss this further.  SWPC would
like to resolve all outstanding issues with Enron, but we will not make
payment on a claim for an issue which we believe we bear no responsibility
unless such payment is part of a more global settlement.

Hi Ann,

I'm attaching a redline with just a couple of changes to the draft you
sent.  Hopefully, we can wrap this up.

Thanks,
