The Energy and Air Quality Subcommittee meet for almost six hours today and
approved an amended version of H.R. 1647, Chairman Barton's emergency
legislation to aid California, by a 17-13 party line vote.  The full Energy
and Commerce Committee may take it up as early as next week (probably
Thursday, May 17th).

The Subcommittee DEFEATED an amendment by Rep. Waxman (D-CA) to impose
wholesale price caps for 18 months.  The amendment was defeated 12-20 with
all Republicans voting against, including the three from California and Rep.
Greg Walden (R-OR), who while seen as the last to decide to oppose the price
cap amendment, was the most forceful and articulate in opposition to the
amendment.  Also voting "NO" were Democratic Reps. Ralph Hall (D-TX) and
Chris John (D-TX), with which we had met in recent days.  The final vote
tracked our whip count going into the meeting.

Rep. Albert Wynn (D-MD) offered and withdrew an amendment to delete the
"negawatts" provision.  There was bipartisan criticism that while the concept
made sense, there were potential problems in terms of possible games playing,
including end users being able to sell power while not actualy reducing their
normal power levels.  Another member said that electric coops that are
required to sell at cost could have customers then go out and resell that
power and make a lot of money.  Several Members said businesses could shut
down, put workers out of work and become energy marketers and make more
money.  Chairman Barton made a forceful defense of negawatts.  While the
amendment to strike was deleted, we will need to respond to these criticisms
and shore this up before full committee next week.  There will be another
attempt to delete at full committee unless these concerns are addressed in an
amended version.

Ranking Democrat Rick Boucher (D-VA) offered and withdrew an amendment to
reinstate FERC maximum prices for the secondary transmission market, thus
reversing the Feb. 2000 FERC order.  This woudl last for 18 months.
Chairman  Barton said he agreed with Boucher that there is a problem with
what appear to be high gas transmission rates to California, but he disagrees
with the proposed remedy.  He pledged to work with Boucher before Full
Committee mark-up. We are obtaining a copy of this amendment and should
analyze it ASAP for its potential impact on Enron operations.

Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA) offered and withdrew an amendment to impose a series of
new tests to be administered by FERC all with the goal of discouraging spot
market transactions, or at least what he would define as excessive use of the
spot market, and at the same time encourage "deep bilateral mechanisms."  The
mechanisms included a "market balance test" that would say only sellers with
a commitment to the long term market could sell in the spot market at
unregulated rates and "spot market circuit breakers" that would be triggered
when reserves are low in a given market.  Chairman Barton said he likes the
concept of a spot market circuit breaker, but felt that the amendment was too
complicated to be evaluated today.  We will also pursue an analysis of this
amendment since it will likely be offered again in some form.

Mr. Markey also offered and withdrew a "net metering" proposal that would
establish federal interconnection standards for individual consumers who
would want to use fuel cells and other renewable technology to put power onto
the system.  It was interesting that those who opposed negawatts spoke
favorably of net metering even though they are complementary.

The subcommittee by voice vote adopted a Walden Amendment to strike the
section of the bill that would have required an RTO if 10 of the western
governors approved it.  The debate was pro-RTO but the rationale for deleting
the provision is that one is already being formed and Members from those
states did not want to upset the work already under way.

A series of other amendments on other matters were offered and withdrawn,
none of which relate to our activities.


To Accenture:

As discussed early today we hereby notify Accenture of 10 days notice of intent to terminate our Arrangement Letter for development of Basics of Risk Management.  The 10 days count down begins as of this evening.

On May 10, 2001, a memo was sent out regarding "Peer Group Mapping".  This
mapping is intended to illustrate from a functional view point where each
activity was placed at Year End 2000 VP PRC.

Please refer to the attached original memo, if you have not responded to
David Oxley and have any comments
please respond to him by May 25, 2001.

Dave Delainey

Following my note last week please find attached the consolidated peer group
mapping for all business units. This mapping is intended to illustrate from a
functional view point where each activity was placed at Year End 2000 VP PRC.

We were considering moving to a 3 Peer Group Structure however it as agreed
at the last PRC Committee Meeting  to stay with the current structure since
the data had been cleaned and everyone felt generally comfortable where most
activities had been placed with the exception of just  2 or 3. It was agreed
that we should concentrate on resolving these rather than undertaking an
organization wide remapping excercise to consolidate to 3 Peer Groups. All
functions/activities within the business units should now be reflected on the
acttached.

The actions points from this excercise are:

1 to review and agree the attached mapping

2    consider and comment on highlighted groups that we have discussed in
previous PRC meetings and ask for your comments or objections to moving them
as indicated on the attachment.

3 invite your comments or questions on any other function that you consider
questionable or requiring further explanation.

      Please return your comments to David Oxley by Friday May 25.

      To have this discussion now will save lengthy discussions in the final
VP/MD PRC Meetings.  Definitions of the peer groups are also attached for
your ease of
      reference.


Jeff,

As best I can tell, this is the paper summarized in the article you
forwarded.  It is not new but perhaps was attached to a parties filing
(SDG&E?).

Subject:  Kahn & Joskow piece

Alan,

Refer to the recent Harvey & Hogan piece for a thorough critique of recent
market power studies in the California market. Joskow & Kahn make all the
same mistakes that HH have already highlighted in the BBW work and probably
more, since a) JK were forced to use more aggregate data and b) JK had to
estimate some of their data that BBW have access to. Key criticisms include
ignoring the effects of various market efficiencies, one-part bidding,
opportunity costs in other markets and a host of data problems.

As far as the withholding modeling goes - the discussion is so vague that
it
is hard to know what data was used/approach taken. Again, forgone
opportunities in other market and as a result of water/emissions RTCs
shortages are not discussed and can explain what looks like 'withholding'.

Sabine.

Subject: Emprical Study on High Prices

Attached is a paper that was filed at the FERC by Paul Joskow and Ed Kahn.
I assume it was attached to SCE's comments in the FERC price caps
proceeding.

This study appears to be the most definite analysis so far of the question:
did market fundamentals or generator market power cause the price run-ups
this summer?  Joskow/Kahn conclude that although much of the run up was due
to gas prices and NOx costs, that the market was unworkably competitive;
i.e., the cost run ups do not fully explain the price run ups.  Further,
they provide what they claim is evidence that individual generators
withheld this summer.

Joskow/Kahn state: "Moreover, there is considerable empirical
evidence to support a presumption that the high prices experienced in the
summer of
2000 were the product of deliberate actions on the part of generators or
marketers
controlling the dispatch of generating capacity to withhold supply and
increase market
prices."  Biggest withholders in their analysis are: AES/Williams, Reliant,
and Dynegy

Marketer/traders are largely but not completely spared criticism in their
analysis.  Joskow/Kahn recommend that FERC staff undertake a study of the
entire WSCC data to "Determine the role of marketers in the production and
bidding behavior of the California generators." and to find out more why CA
imports fell.

It will be interesting to see how the CA generators react to this study.

My initial read is that this is will be received as an important,
influential work.  It will fuel the fire for more information release,
especially by the UDCs and CA regulators--at least release of physical
operational data.

I would be interested in your reaction to the study.  In terms of potential
criticisms: I noticed that their gas prices might be low (used monthly
average data rather than daily).  They also did not account for generator
marginal profit or margin recovery to account for possible outages and
noncontiguous schedules.   Finally, they do not examine the benefits that
would have accrued had additional capacity come on line.

Hello Lee.  (I know your thinking - What now!)

the LVCII project.  One item that we have as part of our EPC contract with
Modern Continental South, is an Assignment and Assumption Agreement whereby
MCS will assume certain responsibilities for (owner), and abide by the

that Agreement.  I have attached that agreement to this e mail for your

online marketplace that provides purchasing, financing,

DALLAS -- Buyout and investment firm Hicks Muse

a 20% internal rate of return for investors on $200
million that has been invested in early-stage Internet-related

is part of Hicks' Fund V, which it expects to close
with several billion dollars. Hicks Muse has made
investments from loans and is now raising funds
to cover the loans. The move to guarantee returns
comes after several of its Internet investments
have performed poorly. Hicks Muse partners will
personally guarantee the investment return from
profits of previous funds. The firm also said it
would no longer be making venture capital investments
in new companies and would focus on companies in
the consumer branded, manufacturing, and media sectors.
The firm has not ruled out making additional investments
in venture-backed companies it already has in its
portfolio. Hicks Muse cited market difficulty and
investor reluctance as factors in its change of
investment strategy. The company's venture capital
portfolio includes Latin American travel site Despegar.com,
Web-based community developer Ramius, online sports

Sara,

Greetings!!!  Thanks for joining us again. I'm sure we'll have a blast and
yes let's get together so I can update you on our organization.

 I have attached a memo from our guy in Australia who just started in
January.  Please address his needs and let me know what the status of his
requests are in a couple of days.  Shane's office number is 011 61 2 9229

Paul S. called you because a London group thought they had the ok from Paul
to trade financials in the UK.  I simply asked him what the difference was
between that group and mine with respect to Enron's UK regulatory status.

Subject:  Various Issues

Gary,

I haven't been able to get a hold of you the last couple of days and there
are a
few things I wanted to discuss.

1. If you don't have a problem I am proposing to put in place an execution
agreement with ABN Amro Futures who will give up to Commonwealth Bank on
behalf
of Carr. I have already put the steps in motion for this to occur through
Shari
Stack.

2. I would like to put in place an ISDA between ENA and Commonwealth Bank as I
have been talking to their FX desk and would like to be in the position of
being
able to trade with them. I will talk to Credit about it if you don't have a
problem.

3. The laywer here told me the other day that we have not signed an ISDA with
Westpac because of a disagreement over guarantees. Apparently Westpac have
been
hard to deal with through the whole process although all other issues have
been
signed off. When the FX contact came here for a meeting yesterday I told him
that I wouldn't be dealing with them until the ISDA was sorted out and he said
that Houston is dealing without an ISDA so I should. My concern is that while
we
are dealing with them there is no pressure on them to sort out the ISDA.

I sent a book to Clara about Australian financial markets and included in the
package a surf lifesaving cap because I had heard you wanted one. It is the
competition cap of Memaid Beach Surf Lifesaving Club.

Everything else is going fine

Regards,

Shane


I wish.  As to your complaint about my failure to tip you off, there were two
primary reasons:  (1) if I told you and got caught I'd go to prison, and,
more importantly, (2) I had no clue. DF  (its better to be lucky than good!)

		 Subject: Wabash Valley called re: AEP filing

Don Morton, general counsel of Wabash Valley Power Association, a co-op in
AEP's area, called me about Enron's protest of AEP's market based rates
filing.  Wabash has filed an appeal in the DC Circuit of AEP/CSW merger (its
brief is due 11/20).  He thinks FERC is out of control and not carrying on
its duties.  Wabash is also preparing a protest of the Alliance compliance
filing (due this Friday 10/6) on the following grounds:

Filing is really a continuation of pancaking
Does not want FERC to approve on a "conditional" basis (expecting Alliance to
be a true RTO)--Wabash thinks that Alliance simply creates a larger profit
center for AEP's transmission system

Mr. Morton also had some specific OASIS problem examples that happened to
Wabash that involved preferential treatment for AEP.  I told him to call or
email Scott Miller for the investigation.

Mr. Morton and Wabash CEO, Ed Martin, would like to come to Houston to visit
with Enron about our concerns and about the possibility of making some joint
filings.  His number is 317-481-2815.  Please let me know if I should set
something up or if someone else would like to talk with him directly.


Dear Marcus:

     Thank you for the Enron/MG group structure charts.  They appear to be
pre-acquisition.  What we need to include in ETS' risk assessment filing is an
org. chart which shows where ETS fits in the Enron org. chart.

Subject: Hello

Hi Jodi,

I have been remiss in keeping up with you and letting you know what is
going on
in my little world here at Kellogg.

In other matters, life at Kellogg has me very busy at the moment.  I am taking
a full load, including Fin Decisions and am helping Prof. Petersen write a new
class called Advanced Valuation, which will be offered in the spring.  A big
part of the focus of this class is going to be on real options, which is cool
stuff.  And as poor as my timing is, I would like to ask you a
question/favor.
For purposes of this class, do you think it would be possible to obtain
some of
Enron's thoughts on real options?  I was thinking, for example, that a
fuel-switching analysis would be neat to included in the case packet.  Of
course, none of the numbers or names need be real-- only the concepts.  Well,
let me know what you think of that-- who knows, Enron might actually like the
free exposure.

All the best,

Chris


Seabron --

Here is a paper Brattle is putting together for Enron in Japan.  See Section
5 - A Japanese Pool.  They make several good arguments as to why a mandatory
pool with financial settlements around the pool is key for Japanese
liberalization.   Maybe steal some of their ideas for our US policy arguments.

Dear Murray (and Chris),

    Mike and I have been noticing that a newcommer in Houston, Alicia Nguyen, may be in need of some additional attention from the Settlements group.  We understand that she had limited training time with Laura Dewett before Laura left the Settlements group, and we recognize that she is not at fault in her mistakes.  This does, however, seem like an issue that needs to be addressed immediately.
    It does not seem that Alicia knows how to identify real variances or how to then enter the disputes into DMS properly so that we understand what we need to research (and skewing the numbers that I report to our traders) .  Often times, we have found that a problem that she has identified as a dispute is not in duspute, which can be frustrating to us as well and delaying the DMS process.  We think that with some guidance, she will have a much better understanding of the process and be better able to identify real discrepancies.
   For examples and recommendations, please see Mike or myself.

   We appreciate you attention to this matter,

  Virginia

Virginia,

It seems that Alicia Nguyen in Houston Settlements is not understanding the nature of disputes and the DMS system.  On many occasions we are getting disputes that are not justified when comparing to Enpower.  Alicia may need more training in determining a disputes and how to lay them out on the DMS form.

Thank you

BERKELEY AND COLUMBIA ANNOUNCE JOINT EXECUTIVE MBA PROGRAM
The Haas School and Columbia Business School are jointly launching their
new Berkeley-Columbia Executive MBA program this fall. The new program is
being marketed by both schools across the nation starting this week.

The Berkeley Columbia EMBA blends the distinctive strengths of the two
schools: Wall Street and Silicon Valley, New York and California. Aimed at
a select group of high-level executives, the new program will enroll its
first class in June 2002.

The marketing launch of the EMBA program, which was originally scheduled
for the week of September 11 was delayed due to the terrorist attacks in
New York and Washington, is commencing now and will continue into spring
2002. The EBMA program places a major emphasis on drawing applicants from
the west coast. Information sessions for prospective applicants across the
nation start on November 7 and will continue through February.

Information sessions will be held throughout California and western states
as well as New York, east coast states, and the Midwest.
Upcoming information sessions in California include:
    Berkeley, Nov. 7, 6:00 to 7:30 pm
    Los Angeles, Nov. 28, 5:00 to 6:30 pm
    Oakland, Nov. 29, 5:00 to 6:30 pm
    San Francisco, Nov. 30, 8:00 to 9:00 am
    San Jose, Dec. 4, 5:00 to 6:30 pm
    Sacramento, Dec. 11, 8:00 to 9:00 am
    Orange County, Dec. 13, 8:00 to 9:30 am
    San Diego, Dec. 14, 8:00 to 9:30 am

For more detailed information on these and other events, please go to the
web site at:
http://web.haas.berkeley.edu/embaadmissions/events/index.cfm.

The EMBA curriculum will offer participants fresh insights into the complex
forces of global, financial, technological and entrepreneurial changes that
are transforming the business world. It leverages the schools' locations in
two of the world's most important business centers - New York City and the
San Francisco/Silicon Valley area.

"In today's turbulent business environment, executives must possess
outstanding management skills and a keen understanding of the rapidly
changing nature of the economy and business world," said Haas School Dean
Laura Tyson. "This unique educational partnership will develop leaders with
the requisite vision and skills for success."

Designed to accommodate the busy executive, the Berkeley-Columbia EMBA
features a convenient schedule of 15 weeks of instruction over 19 months
alternating between New York and Berkeley. The bi-coastal curriculum,
taught by the faculty of these two premier institutions, will offer broad,
general management courses with a strategic perspective, including a series
of cutting-edge electives in areas such as IT strategy and international
finance.

Companies sponsoring promising executives in the Berkeley-Columbia EMBA
will see immediate benefits from the program, as participants are
encouraged to apply cutting-edge concepts to their workplace.

In addition to receiving MBA degrees from both Columbia Business School and
UC Berkeley, participants will benefit from a lifetime membership in the
global professional networks of both schools that includes over 50,000 alumni.

UNDERGRADUATES COMPETE IN INVESTMENT BANKING CASE FINALS ON TUESDAY, OCTOBER 30
Haas undergraduates have a chance to tackle real-world problems with
creative solutions every year in the Investment Banking Case
Competition.  The Haas School's undergraduate program office and Goldman,
Sachs & Co. are hosting the final event for the fourth annual case
competition on Tuesday, October 30, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. in the
Arthur Andersen Auditorium. The finals are free and open to the entire UC
Berkeley community.

Each year this competition showcases one of Goldman Sachs' recent
high-profile transactions to give interested students an opportunity to
demonstrate and further develop their knowledge and skill base. This year's
case focuses on the recent sale of Cobalt Networks to Sun Microsystems.

Over 30 teams submitted cases to the competition. The final four were
chosen on Friday, October 23. Each of the finalist teams will make a short
presentation followed by questions from a panel of judges, which will
include company management, investment bankers, members of the investment
community, and Haas faculty.  The winner will be announced, followed by the
judges' critique of the presentations, and a discussion of what actually
happened during the sale of Cobalt Networks.  There will be time allotted
for questions from the audience. A reception will follow the event in the
Helzel Boardroom.

LEARN THE SECRETS OF POST-BUBBLE MARKETING WITH LOUIS STERN THURSDAY,
NOVEMBER 1
Kellogg School of Management Professor Louis Stern will share his vision of
"21st Century Marketing" at the second annual David Aaker Distinguished
Lecture Series in Marketing on Thursday, Nov. 1, at 5 p.m. in the Wells
Fargo Room. Seating will be on a first-come, first-served basis.

Last year a standing-room-only crowd heard Prof. Emeritus David Aaker, one
of the world's leading authorities on branding, lecture on "Brand
Leadership" as the inaugural lecture in this series.

Stern is the John D. Gray Distinguished Professor of Marketing.

"Perspectives about how to use the Internet and the web must be re-assessed
in light of the hard lessons learned over the past several years during the
irrational exuberance era," says Stern. He focuses on issues related to
designing and managing marketing channels in his research. In the lecture,
he will address changes to marketing strategies and tactics that are
required in order to find the right paths to profitability in the
post-Internet-bubble era.

TOP HAAS ECONOMISTS OFFER THEIR FORECAST FOR THE US ECONOMY NOVEMBER 9
One of the many benefits of attending the Haas School and UC Berkeley is
the chance to hear some of the nation's foremost economists comment on the
current economy. On Friday, November 9, 2001, at 4:00 p.m., Dean Laura
Tyson invites Haas students to a forum on the US economy.

"Economic Outlook Forum 2001" will examine economic conditions in the
United States in the wake of the events of September 11 and the ongoing war
on terrorism. Speaking at the event will be Profs. Severin Borenstein,
Jerry Engel, Rich Lyons, Ken Rosen, Hal Varian, and Janet Yellen.  Dean
Tyson and Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Ben Hermalin will moderate.
Yellen, Lyons, and Rosen will give an overview of domestic and global
macroeconomic conditions. Borenstein will speak on energy and airlines,
Engel will speak on venture capital, and Varian will speak on technology.

Tickets are available in the degree program offices.  They will be
distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Standing-room-only tickets
will be available the day of the event.
----------
INTEL CEO TO SPEAK AT RESEARCH DIALOGUE ON NOVEMBER 14
The Business Faculty Research Dialogues bring major corporate speakers to
Haas every year to create a continuing discussion around a central theme.
This year the theme is "Adding Value with Information Technology" and the
lineup of speakers is impressive.

First up is Craig R. Barrett, president and chief executive officer of
Intel Corporation, on Wednesday, November 14, at 4:00 p.m. in the Arthur
Andersen Auditorium. Barrett has been in the news recently commenting on
the possibility of the Windows XP release increasing demand for new
computers. He has been fairly negative on this possibility, instead stating
that Intel continues to focus on its core business.

Before joining Intel in 1974, Barrett was an associate professor of
materials science at Stanford, where he earned his bachelors, masters, and
Ph.D. degrees in materials science. He joined Intel Corporation in 1974 as
a technology development manager. He was elected to Intel board of
directors in 1992 and was named the company's chief operating officer in
1993. He became Intel's fourth president in May 1997 and chief executive
officer in 1998.

Barrett will be followed by Eric Benhamou, chairman of the board for 3COM
Corporation and Palm, Inc., on March 15, 2002, and Eric Schmidt, chairman
of the board and CEO of Google, Inc. in Spring 2002 (date TBD).

There should not be a deal tic for BOA [555941].  The Brazos tic #541136 has
100% of the VPP vols, which is correct.  The other tic should not exist.  I
have been told that you were the one to input it in, so I am trying to find
out what needs to be done to remove it.  It is not correct.

Joan,

The BOA ticket was established by John Griffith.

Two deal tickets are necessary for St. Mary's in order to segregate that
portion of the excess volumes on which a firm delivery guarantee to the East
Desk was made and origination was taken from that portion of the excess
volumes which are delivered to the desk on an interruptible basis and priced
accordingly.

There should not be a deal tic for BOA [555941].  The Brazos tic #541136 has
100% of the VPP vols, which is correct.  The other tic should not exist.  I
am not sure if you put this in, or if John Griffith did this when the name
change from St. Mary's to Brazos took place.  Please let me know what I need
to do in order to get this removed/corrected.

Also, when things slow down, we need to discuss the 2 deal tics [firm and
spot].  Per the contract with Preston, there s/b only one tic - all the gas
at IF TGT + 0.0025.

thanks.
