Religion, huh?  Interesting.  Your folks may disown you, though.  I don't know how you could think that cooking would be more fun than bond finance--you crazy?

The Pilot: I need to know exactly what the pilot is and with whom your doing it.  Yes, I need the champion's name, and fast.

The meetings will work, but I forgot, what week?  Next week or week after?  (May want to wait until plane service gets normal?)

Have fun in SC--why don't you guys live there?  Not a bad commute for you; Scott can surf; we can come down and play bluegrass!  Sell the flat, dammit.

Kisses,
Jeff

PS Colleen doing OK?  I can come by after class on Wednesday--class is at Boalt, so we get out at 8:30, you know what slackers law students are....

Nope.  She was in NY last week, though.  Scary.

I have class on Tuesday and Wednesday now also!!  On Tuesdays I have a
religion class through UC Extension (its all on how the different religions
view "why we are here").  Pretty relevant for today, huh?

On Wednesdays I am taking a cooking class at home chef in Laurel Village.
Should be fun.

Bet my classes are better than your classes.

The pilot at Enron is going EXTREMELY well.  I will get you the name of our
champion.  He wants to introduce this all over Enron.  Energy Services just
loves it.  Ian has been living out there in Houston for almost two weeks
now.

How are the meetings coming along with Deal Bench and Net Works?

We are still in Santa Cruz - we'll be back tomorrow, hopefully we'll see you
Wed night after class??

TO:
All New York Mercantile Exchange members

FROM:
The Board of Directors

RE:
Tickets to Mets/Yankees Interleague Series

=====================================================================

 We are pleased to inform you that, once again, the Exchange will act as the
official sponsor of the Mets/Yankees interleague series, which will be two
sets of games, with the first  three games being held from Friday, June 15,
through Sunday, June 17, at Shea Stadium (with the Friday and Sunday games
being night games and the Saturday game being an afternoon game); and the
second set of games on Friday, July 6, through Sunday, July 8, (Friday is a
night game, the other two are afternoon games) this year at Yankee Stadium.

 As part of its sponsorship, the Exchange will once again receive a limited
number of tickets to the series, which will be made available to members on a
first-come, first-served basis for their personal use and may not be resold
or redistributed.  Most of these tickets are expected to be in the upper deck
and outfield.

 Upon notification that the allocation has been made, members are expected to
pick up their tickets in person on a timely basis, or provide a Federal
Express number and address to which the tickets should be sent to their
attention and for their signature.  It is the member,s responsibility to
provide a working number at which they can easily be reached or a reliable
message taken on their behalf.  It is unlikely that more than two attempts
will be made to reach any individual.  Any tickets that are not picked up on
a timely basis shall be redistributed.

 The Exchange will most likely not know until two weeks before each series
the exact distribution of tickets for each game so, if you would like tickets
to the series, you are encouraged to include your first, second, and third
choices on the form below and fax it back to (212) 301-4700, e-mail it to
publications@nymex.com, or drop it off in the corporate communications area
on the 15th floor.  If you have any questions, please contact Linda
Mieszkowski at (212) 299-2777.

 After May 23, all requests made by Exchange staff and clerks will be
considered on a  first-come, first-served basis, so we urge all members to
reserve tickets prior to that date.

I am trying to price a crack spread option utilizing either of the following

1. Spread Options by 1-D integration - SPRDOPT

2. Spread Options on Asian Spreads - ASNSPRD

How do I get access to these options models?  Who can I visit with in the

be greatly appreciated.  I am located in Singapore, so I would probably be
visiting with the Houston personnel via e-mail.

Thanks,

P.S. - I have access to the O:\research\exotica\xll\xll_templates\ directory;
however, there are no macros associated with the programs that I can find.
Also, I don't have access to the M: drive.  Please let me know where to find
these options models.


Sorry for the late delivery.  Too tired last night to finish then.

FYI, Reuters crossed the attached article on Y2K and highlighted Enron's
worst case scenario information from our SEC filing .  We can probably expect
more articles like this during December.  Our reactive media statement on
Enron's 10K remains the same, but the media is likely to run our filing
language, as they are looking for "doomsday" quotes (I spoke to the Reuters
reporter and explained that we complied with the SEC requirements and the
worst case scenario was unlikely, yet the reporter still ran 10K quotes
rather than a corporate response to the filing.)

If you have any questions, please call me.

Thanks.

Subject: Y2K

Enclosed is an article which mentions Enron and the '99 to 2000 change.

Oil industry has fingers crossed over Y2K bug
By Richard Valdmanis
NEW YORK, Nov 24 (Reuters) - Despite some glowing reports on Y2K readiness in
the U.S. oil and gas industry, private analysts, and even some of the more
forthcoming oil companies, say there is no way to know whether the computer
glitch will result in fuel shortages to consumers.

"After all the research that's been done and all the data that's been
collected, we don't really know what will happen when the clock strikes 12 on
New Year's Eve," said Dr. Martin Weiss, Chairman of Weiss Ratings Inc., which
has been tracking Y2K compliance among major U.S. companies for more than a
year.

The Y2K bug refers to a software glitch in some older computers that only
recognize the final two digits in a year. The glitch could result in
malfunctions if the computers mistake 2000 for 1900.

For the energy industry, which depends on the electrical grid as well as
internal computer systems, the Y2K bug could lead to unsafe operations at
refineries and to shortages in fuel shipments - a daunting possibility for
the leading nation in energy consumption at the height of winter.

Despite trade group survey results that claim nearly 100 percent of the oil
and gas industry will be ready for Y2K - a far more encouraging percentage
than the roughly 50 percent reported a year ago - some companies say it would
be foolish to expect no surprises.

They point out that the Y2K situation is one for which there is no precedent
and the task of finding all non-compliant computer chips in the
interdependent petroleum and electricity industries is mammoth.

Enron Corp. (ENE.N), a major U.S. petroleum company and pipeline operator, is
among the companies unsure of what the New Year will bring.

Despite their best efforts to upgrade their "mission critical" systems --
those that are essential to their business -- the company says "there is no
assurance that (our Y2K) plan will succeed in accomplishing its purposes or
that unforseen circumstances will not arise during implementation of the plan
that would materially and adversely affect Enron."

Enron made the statement in a filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

The company also said that neither it nor utilities and outside entities on
which the company depends are likely to find and replace all non-compliant
computer chips which could lead to what the company calls a "cascading
effect" of system failures.

"The problem is not, and will not be, unique to Enron," the company added.

Though Enron has not announced any precautionary Y2K shutdowns, a number of
other major U.S. pipeline operators have. For example the Colonial Pipeline,
the largest in the nation, plans an eight-hour shutdown starting on New
Year's Eve.

Explorer Pipeline, the second largest, plans a 20-hour shutdown before the
rollover into the new year.

The pipelines together supply nearly three million gallons of gasoline and
other fuels per day between Houston, New York and Chicago.

In preparation for the potential pipeline disruptions, as well as an expected
buy up of fuel by nervous consumers, retail gasoline operators are planning
to stock up an extra seven days of gasoline supplies to their normal 30 day
inventories, according to industry and government officials.

The planned inventory build could also guard against any potential
disruptions at U.S. refineries, which produce the gasoline.

By most accounts, refiners have put in the greatest amount of effort to iron
out Y2K problems. According to Weiss Rating Co., the majority of large U.S.
oil refining companies, like Exxon Corp (XON.N) and Mobil Corp. (MOB.N), are
either average or above average in their adherance to Y2K plans mapped out
more than a year ago, and only a handful, like Chevron Corp (CHV.N) and
Ultramar Diamond Shamrock Corp (UDS.N), are rated below average.

"While pipelines appear the more laggard group in the energy industry,
refiners seem to be the more prepared," said Dr. Weiss. "Over all, the energy
sector appears to be taking the Y2K problem seriously - but that is no
guarantee that the New Year will be a non-event."

According to reports by the American Petroleum Institute (API), the Natural
Gas Association and other industry trade groups, nearly 100 percent of the
nation's refiners, retailers, and pipeline operators will be ready for the
year 2000 turnover, which comes in less than two months, by having Y2K proof
systems in place and contingency plans if they break down.

"What the reports are saying is, the trade groups are confident these
companies are going to be Y2K ready, and that's encouraging," said an
official at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). "But obviously
nobody can make any guarantees."

Louise,

Those numbers are impressive without a doubt.  The success has had the
unfortunate consequence of showing the limits of our current internet
technology.  The delays in messages from the stacks to the website have
gotten worse in recent weeks.  This is only anecdotal evidence but as a
trader on the system it has been very frustrating.

This sounds correct, but we are in the process of calling the pools to obtain the documentation necessary now and I would think that you may as well execute the transmission agreements at the same time, since the transmission agreements are typically the most standard and usually do not require collateral, etc. as long as they are ST firm or non-firm.

Christi

In preparing our business implementation plan, I am trying to identify and prioritize the relevant transmission agreements for each of the 3 northeast pools.  My assumption is that, for pure internal transactions in each of the three pools, we do not really need to be a signatory to the respective ISO transmission agreements, and thus signing of these transmission agreements is not of the highest priority.  Does this sound correct to you?

My sense is that we only would need to sign on to the ISO transmission tariff to facilitate inter-pool transfers and/or to serve load in the regions.  Does this sound correct to you?

Please email or call me with any insights you might have.

John

WASHINGTON -- The investigative arm of Congress Thursday said there was no evidence the former chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission violated ethics regulations by asking Enron Corp.'s chairman for political support.
The General Accounting Office said its investigation found that former FERC Chairman Curtis Hebert did not accept anything of value from Ken Lay and did not discuss any of the giant electricity and natural gas company's cases pending before the agency.
In January, President Bush named Hebert, a Mississippi Republican, the acting chairman of FERC. However, rumors spread that Bush planned to replace Hebert with Patrick Wood, a Texas utility regulator.
The GAO said it investigated a telephone conversation Hebert had with Lay in February. During that exchange, the acting FERC chairman asked Lay, who is a close friend of Bush's, for his endorsement to continue in the job.
"Mr. Lay said that because Mr. Hebert was pressing him for an endorsement, he took the opportunity to ask him about his position on (electricity grid) access, an issue that he and Mr. Hebert did not agree on," the GAO wrote.
"Mr. Lay told us that during the conversation, Mr. Hebert said that FERC was addressing some issues and that Mr. Lay would probably be happy with the direction in which FERC was moving," the GAO said. "This statement conflicts with Mr. Hebert's recollection."
The GAO concluded that no criminal laws or ethics regulations were violated. Regardless of what was said about open access, the GAO said no criminal laws or ethics regulations were violated during the conversation.

Houston man held for lapsed visa, FBI says

A Houstonian named Asem Atta, reportedly of interest to federal authorities investigating terrorism, is in custody of the Immigration and Naturalization Service because he stayed in this country longer than his papers allowed, an FBI spokesman said Thursday.
But Bob Doguim said the FBI "has no interest in" Atta, 23, an Enron employee who lived in Midtown.
"We're interviewing a lot of people, a lot who have the Arabic equivalent of the name Bob Jones," said Doguim. "Obviously, we're talking to a lot of folks from the Middle East and we're finding a lot of wonderful people, some who've overstayed their visit. That doesn't make them criminals."
Doguim said Atta is what the INS calls "out of status." The INS would not comment.
Enron would say only that it did employ Atta, but that he is not now at work.
A friend responding to a Chronicle e-mail query Thursday said Atta has been missing since right after the Sept. 11 explosions in New York and Washington, and his friends were worried about him and did not believe he could have been involved.
The Washington Post reported that Atta is a Pakistani national and former resident of Kuwait and was being sought for questioning in the attacks.
From his own online diary and resume, it appeared that Atta came to Houston in August 1999 from Wichita, Kan. His resume and school records indicated that he lived there at least since 1994.
One of the alleged terrorists had the last name Atta and there has been some question whether it is simply a common Arabic surname or one purposely adopted by some in the terrorist group, perhaps because it is common.

Enron to go ahead with legal steps

THE TERRORIST attack on America has its fallout on the Dabhol controversy as well. Enron has declared its intention to press ahead with legal measures that would, it claims, impose a financial obligation of $5 billion on the Indian parties involved in the dispute.
The renewed emphasis on legal recourse would appear to be a direct fallout of the cancellation of the Prime Ministers planned visit to New York later this month, during which Enron hoped to press its case through high level interaction between the governments of India and the US.
This issue which had been taken up at the highest level by the PMO, finance ministry and power ministry in the past few months was expected to be discussed billaterally between the two countries.
In fact, the PMO had even directed the concerned ministries to find a solution to resolve the payment crisis.
The government had set up a committee led by Indian financial institutions to work out an exit route for the US power developer which had already decided to exit the project.
Although, the report submitted by this committee was not accepted by Enron who has demanded its stake to be bought out at a minimum cost of $ 1 billion, a dialogue between the FIs and Enron had been initiated to find a solution.
However, now following the recent developments in the US which has sent the economy and the government in a tizzy, it is most unlikely that Enron will be able to cut any ice with US government officials at this juncture.
Although, it is not known as to what the fallout of the arbitration proceedings would be, the Indian government has also preferred to take advantage of the developments and has remained low keyed.
According to Enrons estimates, the project incurs an additional cost of Rs 500 crore every day on account of interest during construction.
Moreover, the rejigging of the project and the rescheduling has already hiked the project cost by $14 million . The total increase in the project cost would be to the tune of about 39 per cent with a whopping financial liability of Rs 15,000 crore on MSEB if Enron wins the case.
The companys concern over the delay and the fallouts of the recent developments are reflected clearly in a recent communication by the company to the Centre.
The project has not been in operation and stoppage of fund disbursals for maintenance by the lenders is affecting the health of the project too. According to this communication international financial institutions who have a total exposure of $ 1.1 billion too now want to exit from the project, and would want their stake to be bought out.

Regulators end consumer choice, a last vestige of California's failed power deregulation
By KAREN GAUDETTE
Associated Press Writer

Copyright 2001. The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - State power regulators voted to suspend a key aspect of the state's deregulation effort, leaving California electricity customers unable to buy power from anyone other than their local utility.
The state Public Utilities Commission on Thursday also abruptly delayed a decision for at least two weeks on whether to grant the state's power-buying agency the authority to raise electric rates for millions of Californians without commission review.
That approval is necessary to encourage Wall Street to buy $12.5 billion in bonds the state is issuing to recoup the $9.5 billion it has spent buying power for three financially ailing utilities, Gov. Gray Davis has said.
Critics, including the utilities, consumer advocates, businesses and some PUC members, say following the Legislature's orders to surrender the commission's rate-setting authority only will hurt consumers. Commissioner Jeff Brown said protecting ratepayers from unjust and unreasonable costs is part of the PUC's job.
Allowing consumers to buy power directly from retailers such as Green Mountain Energy or Enron Corp. was one of the key elements of the failed deregulation system passed in 1996.
Its end will affect customers around the state, including more than 170 school districts that had pooled together to seek a new electricity provider. About 200,000 customers had switched utilities by September.
The PUC voted 3-2 to keep ratepayers from switching from their utilities to other power providers as of Thursday, dropping previous efforts to suspend consumer choice retroactive to July or earlier.
Current direct access customers can remain with their energy providers through the end of their contracts.
After the Legislature enlisted the water department to buy power for the customers of financially ailing Pacific Gas and Electric, Southern California Edison and SDG&E, it ordered the PUC to suspend so-called direct access to prevent customers from leaving the utilities.
To get its billions back, the state plans to issue bonds. It has been told by Wall Street it can expect better rates if it shows it has a guaranteed and expandable incoming flow of money.
Consumer advocates say a suspension also will keep thousands of big businesses from switching providers for cheaper prices and leaving smaller residential customers stuck with the state's power bill.
"What direct access really means is direct access to the pocketbooks of small consumers," Paul Perkovic of San Mateo told the commission.
The commission had called for a retroactive suspension to force businesses to return to utilities and pay their share of the state's mammoth power bill.
The businesses left after learning power contracts the state had cut in the spring likely would have California ratepayers paying more than if they bought power elsewhere.
The PUC on Thursday also approved a 12 percent rate increase for residential customers of San Diego Gas and Electric Co.

Judicial panel set up to probe Enron deal

09/21/2001
The Times of India
Copyright (C) 2001 The Times of India; Source: World Reporter (TM)

MUMBAI: Negotiations in the multi-billion dollar Enron deal, the consent letters issued by the state authorities, and the power purchase agreement (PPA) signed between the US power company and the Maharashtra State Electricity Board (MSEB) will come under fresh scrutiny by the judicial commission set up by the state government on Wednesday.
The probe panel to be headed by a retired justice of the supreme court will be invested with powers under the commission of inquiry act.
press conference held at Mantralaya after the weekly cabinet meeting on Wednesday. The cabient meeting, it is learnt, witnessed a heated debate as the Nationalist Congress Party was not in favour of the probe and also disputed the appointment of a supreme court judge for the inquiry.
"The committee will check whether the licenses, letters of consent and other clearances given by various authorities for this project were in line with the Electricity (supply) Act, 1948," Mr Deshmukh said adding that the committee has been given six months to finalise its report.
He said the terms of reference of the inquiry committee were broadly the same as demanded by the leaders of the Left Front parties who are supporting the Democratic Front government.
"The committee will probe into the circumstances that led to the renegotiations of the Enron deal. The stand taken by individuals responsible for renegotiating the deal and whether the decision on the second phase of the project was in the interest of the state will also be looked into by the inquiry commission," Mr Deshmukh said.
The second phase of the Enron project was finalised by the erstwhile Shiv Sena-BJP government with the then energy minister Gopinath Munde declaring that the deal was renegotiatiated to ensure adequate supply of power to the state. He claimed that the power tariff was also considerably reduced and announced a mega project of 2,100 MW at Dabhol.
The then chief minister Manohar Joshi and Mr Munde had filed an affidavit in the Bombay high court justifying the renegotiation and the addition of phase-II and LNG terminal as compulsory part of the revised PPA.
Mr Deshmukh said the probe panel will examine the deal in totality and will present its recommendations to the state government in six months time.
The move to constitute a judicial commission was suggested in the voluminous 181-page report of the Madhav Godbole committee appointed by the state government to renegotiate the power tariff with the DPC.
Interestingly, the DPC on Tuesday invoked the central government counter guarantee to the tune of Rs 378 crore as the Maharashtra State Electricity Board (MSEB) had failed to pay up for the power used for the three months from April-June. This is the second such occasion that the DPC has invoked the Union government's counter guarantee.
The Godbole panel had recommended renegotiations with the DPC officials in a bid to reduce the energy tariff. Pointing at the DPC's ``distorted pricing policy'' the Godbole panel had suggested delinking the changes in the rupee-dollar exchange rate so as to bring down the tariff.

Terrorist attacks derail resolution of Enron issue
Girish Kuber

The Economic Times
Copyright (C) 2001 The Economic Times; Source: World Reporter (TM)

LAST Tuesdays terrorist attacks in US seems to have had an unexpected casualty the resolution of the imbroglio sorrounding the Enron-promoted Dabhol power project.
According to highly placed sources in the ruling National Democratic Alliance , Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee wanted to resolve the Enron impasse before his US tour.
According to the earlier schedule, the PM was to leave for the US on September 25 to attend a United Nations meet.
However, Black Tuesday altered the scenario forcing the PM to cancel his tour.
According to sources, the PM wanted to resolve the issue before his US visit so as to avoid any uncomfortable questions in his meeting with US-based industrialists. Enron would certainly have been a major issue had he gone to the US, he said.
This forced the IDBI-led financial institutions to propose various measures to end the standoff. However the PM had to call off his US tour. As a result, the Maharashtra government yesterday announced a judicial inquiry into the Enron deal.
Interestingly, the Centre does not support the judicial probe, sources indicated. The state governments decision smacks of political vendetta which, we fear, would again mess up the industrial atmosphere, feels the Centre. The state government has been informed about the Centres views on the issue, it is learnt.
The finance and the legal departments of the state government had also cautioned the political leadership about the judicial inquiry. We already have initiated a series of actions including legal against Enron. There was no need to open one more front in this battle, a senior official from the state government said.
Centre government sources say that the proposed probe will be nothing but a political tool. However, the feeling amongst some elements of the state government is that the judicial probe will unearth the corruption part of the deal, and once that is proved, the power purchase agreement (PPA) between Enron and MSEB can be declared null and void. As a result, the state will not have to pay any damages.

COMPANIES & FINANCE INTERNATIONAL - PG&E files plans for restructuring.
By JULIE EARLE.

09/21/2001
Financial Times
(c) 2001 Financial Times Limited . All Rights Reserved

Pacific Gas & Electric Co, which is operating under bankruptcy protection, yesterday said it had filed a significant restructuring plan that will pay its creditors in full and avoid rate increases for customers.
PG&E Corp and its utility PG&E jointly filed a plan of reorganisation in the US Bankruptcy Court yesterday. The companies said the official creditors' committee supports the plan.
Under the plan, Pacific Gas and Electric will be spun off from PG&E Corp, creating two separate companies. Pacific Gas & Electric Co shares will be distributed to PG&E shareholders.
PG&E filed for Chapter 11 protection with $9bn in losses in April. It has about 30,000 creditors, including power generation companies and banks. The energy traders Enron, Dynergy and Reliant are among these.
"This plan will allow Pacific Gas & Electric to move out of Chapter 11 as a financially strong business positioned to continue safe, reliable and responsible delivery of gas and electricity to its customers, pay all claims in full and without asking for a rate increase or a state bailout," said Robert Glynn, PG&E Corp president. He expected the restructuring process to be completed by the end of 2002.
The reorganised Pacific Gas & Electric will continue to own and operate existing retail electricity and natural gas distribution systems. The electricity generation, transmission and natural gas transmission operations under Pacific Gas & Electric will be part of PG&E.
Mr Glynn said he hoped the shake-up would not lead to job losses.

COMPANIES & FINANCE INTERNATIONAL - Attacks spark surge in oil transport costs.
By ADRIENNE ROBERTS.

09/21/2001
Financial Times
(c) 2001 Financial Times Limited . All Rights Reserved

Crude prices may have slipped, but the price of transporting oil has soared in the wake of last week's terrorist attacks on the US.
Last Monday, it cost $7.65 a tonne to ship a standard cargo of 250,000 tonnes of crude oil from the Arabian Gulf to Japan. By yesterday, it cost 34 per cent more at $10.28 a tonne, adding $657,500 to a freight bill.
To charter a ship would have cost about $27,000 a day last Monday. Owners are now charging $42,000.
Even on the North Sea route, James Tweed at Global Freight Forwards in London points out that the cost of moving half a million barrels of crude oil was $430,000 yesterday, compared with $315,000 last Tuesday.
Last week's attacks, and the uncertainty they created about US military retaliation, put pressure on an already rising market.
The events triggered a rush for very large crude carriers (VLCCs) with charterers booking tankers well into the future to ensure that they can move oil from the Arabian Gulf if there is conflict in the region.
Uncertainty about insurance costs has also put pressure on the market. "Tanker owners expect war risk insurance to go up, so they want to try to write that into their freight rates as quickly as possible," said Mr Tweed. "I think rates will start to slip after this initial spike, but they're going to take time to come down."
Last week's attacks have also pushed up ship-owners' costs. The price of bunker oil for VLCCs on the Arabian Gulf-Japan route has increased from about $148 a tonne to $158 a tonne since last Monday.
Prices were already on the increase following consolidation among shipowners, some of whom have formed a tanker pool, removing some ships from the market in order to support prices. In mid-August, freight rates on the Arabian Gulf-Japan route were only about $5.20 a tonne.
"Short-term, there's been a spike. Long-term, we think prices will decline because of the volume of ships being delivered," said John Banaszkiewicz at SSY Freight Futures. There are 43 VLCCs on order next year and a further 31 due for delivery in 2003.
Meanwhile, he says, owners can pass the costs of war insurance on to clients, "but there's still the psychology of being in that area when there's a potential war risk. Owners don't want their ships delayed in a port for ages or hit by a missile".
Scott Moncrieff, head of Enron's global tanker freight group, said: "There's a lot of hype at the moment. A lot of owners are sitting on the fence waiting to see how much extra war risk insurance will be required."
Lloyd's List, the maritime publication, reports that tanker managers have received quotes of as much as 1 per cent of the insured value of the ship for loadings in some parts of the Gulf.
Experts believe that freight prices will find support for as long as uncertainty persists about US retaliation for the attacks.
"Whatever the scale or location of the US response, I think freight will probably strengthen again," said Mr Moncrieff.

Pacific Gas & Electric's Bankruptcy Plan Would Split Utility Into Two Firms

09/21/2001
KRTBN Knight-Ridder Tribune Business News: San Jose Mercury News - California

PG&E filed a plan Thursday to pay off $13.2 billion in debt that it says won't raise rates, but outraged consumer advocates and some California officials argue the proposal violates state law and will lead to higher prices.
The blueprint calls for splitting the company in two, allowing it to avoid regulation by the California Public Utilities Commission. It shifts some of its most valuable assets, including transmission lines and hydroelectric plants, over to its non-regulated parent company.
Although company executives described it as "plain vanilla bankruptcy work," the 244-page reorganization plan pushes the envelope on the power of federal bankruptcy law and is sure to come under intense scrutiny in coming months. Company executives said they anticipate the plan would go into effect Jan. 1, 2003.
"We feel great about it," Robert Glynn, PG&E Corp.'s chief executive told analysts in a conference call Thursday.
PG&E filed the plan in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in San Francisco, less than six months after its utility filed bankruptcy.
The creditors committee, the 11-member body representing thousands of creditors in the landmark bankruptcy, said it "fully supports this plan."
Others clearly do not.
"It's a total and complete disaster for consumers," said Assemblyman Fred Keeley, D-Santa Cruz, who is the Assembly's Speaker pro tem. "They have fashioned a way to conduct a regulatory jail break. They are going to completely remove themselves from any regulatory oversight by the state of California."
Keeley said he planned to talk to the state attorney general and the PUC about possible legal challenges to the PG&E plan.
Nettie Hoge, executive director of The Utility Reform Network (TURN) in San Francisco, said she was shocked at how audacious the plan is. Hoge said she suspects that the company filed it in the middle of the terrorism crisis to escape public scrutiny.
"We haven't seen anything this bold and outrageous in the whole history of TURN," Hoge said. "They are plundering all of the beneficial assets of the utility and they're not giving us anything back."
The company's strategy is to split itself in two. It would shift the power plants, in-state gas pipes, gas storage, electricity transmission lines and the vast network of hydroelectric plants of Pacific Gas & Electric Co., the regulated utility, over to PG&E Corp., the non-regulated parent company, for $4.6 billion in cash and some debt.
The stripped-down utility would stick to the retail gas and electric business going forward, although it would keep two power plants and some other equipment. The goal would be two separate publicly traded companies. The plan doesn't call for layoffs.
PG&E proposes that the utility's assets would become three new units under PG&E Corp. One unit would focus on generating power, one would focus on electricity transmission and one on gas transmission. The proposed unregulated units would issue investment-grade bonds to raise the cash to pay off creditors in a combination of cash and tradable IOUs.
The plan requires not only the vote of the entire body of creditors, but the approval of the bankruptcy judge and three federal regulatory agencies, including the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
PG&E Corp. Chief Financial Officer Peter Darbee told analysts Thursday that the company had received a "highly confident letter" from the Lehman Brothers investment bank indicating it could get investment-grade ratings for each of the businesses.
The proposed retail company would buy gas on the market, and electricity from the proposed power-generating unit of PG&E Corp. under a 12-year contract at an average of 5 cents a kilowatt hour. Retail customers won't be affected, executives said.
Others are concerned because the plan sidesteps the PUC, which is not being asked to approve it. It also appears to fly in the face of state law. Section 377 of the California Public Utilities Code, signed into law earlier this year, requires utilities to keep hold of their power plants until Jan. 1, 2006.
Gov. Gray Davis said the plan troubled him.
"This plan transfers more power to the federal government, which, during the last 18 months, has by and large treated California ratepayers shabbily," he said. "The California PUC, while far from perfect, has proven to be a more aggressive defender of ratepayers."
Conservationists worry that the utility's hydroelectric network, which includes 140,000 acres of land that is home to old-growth forest, could be plundered if it is transferred to a public company free of public oversight.
"Going forward in the brave new world of Duke and Enron and everyone else profits matter before necessarily these other public benefits," said Stephen Wald, coordinator of the California Hydropower Reform Coalition, representing 22 river-conservation groups.
PG&E argues that federal bankruptcy law trumps state law. The first page of the reorganization plan lists Harvard law professor and constitutional-law heavyweight Laurence Tribe as co-counsel. There's legal precedence for the move, and FERC has previously allowed utilities to divide, company executives told analysts Thursday.
Alan Gover, PG&E Corp.'s bankruptcy counsel, said the company isn't required to consult the PUC because the plan doesn't propose a rate change and the only area that is the PUC's business is rates. He said there are legal precedents for the shift of assets "in the railroad area" and in the case of the 1988 bankruptcy of Public Service Co. of New Hampshire.
FERC Commissioner William Massey confirmed that FERC has approved the transfer of power plants and related equipment to affiliated and unaffiliated companies but said he couldn't comment in this case or whether the state would have any legal claim to challenge such a move.
The PUC said it was prepared to fight the plan.
"We're entitled to say-so under state law," said Commission President Loretta Lynch.

USA: Enron exec, ex-FERC head cleared in ethics probe.

09/20/2001
Reuters English News Service
(C) Reuters Limited 2001.

WASHINGTON, Sept 20 (Reuters) - The investigative arm of Congress on Thursday said there was no evidence the former chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission violated ethics regulations by asking Enron Corp.'s chairman for political support.
The General Accounting Office said its investigation found that former FERC Chairman Curtis Hebert did not accept anything of value from Ken Lay and did not discuss any of the giant electricity and natural gas company's cases pending before the agency.
The GAO investigation was requested by Sen. Joseph Lieberman, a Connecticut Democrat and former candidate for vice president.
Soon after taking office in January, Bush named Hebert, a Mississippi Republican, the acting chairman of FERC. However, rumors spread that Bush planned to replace Hebert with Patrick Wood, a Texas utility regulator.
The GAO said it investigated a telephone conversation Hebert had with Lay in February. During that exchange, the acting FERC chairman asked Lay, who is a close friend of Bush, for his endorsement to continue in the job.
"Mr. Lay said that because Mr. Hebert was pressing him for an endorsement, he took the opportunity to ask him about his position on (electricity grid) access, an issue that he and Mr. Hebert did not agree on," the GAO wrote.
"Mr. Lay told us that during the conversation, Mr. Hebert said that FERC was addressing some issues and that Mr. Lay would probably be happy with the direction in which FERC was moving," the GAO said. "This statement conflicts with Mr. Hebert's recollection."
The GAO concluded that no criminal laws or ethics regulations were violated.
Regardless of what was said about open access on the electricity grid, the GAO said no criminal laws or ethics regulations were violated during the conversation.
Lay said he would not support Hebert continuing as chairman and "neither party offered to use his influence for the benefit of the other," the GAO said.
Wood was confirmed by the U.S. Senate as a FERC commissioner on May 25. The White House moved him into the chairman's position last month, after Hebert announced his resignation on Aug. 6 to join utility holding company Entergy Corp. as vice president for governmental and regulatory affairs.

"Enlightening Ideas for Public Policy..."

current research publications, events and media programs.

IN THIS WEEK'S ISSUE:
1. Pentagon "Shocked" to Find Rivers Dammed with Pork
2. The Environmental Propaganda Agency
3. William Lloyd Garrison, Antislavery Crusader

-------------------------------------------------------------

PENTAGON "SHOCKED" TO FIND RIVERS DAMMED WITH PORK

Captain Louis Renault -- Claude Raines's cheerfully duplicitous character in
the 1942 film classic "Casablanca" -- asserted glibly that he was "shocked,
shocked" to learn that gambling was taking place at Rick's Cafe. Moments
later he was only too happy to collect his gambling earnings for the night.

All this is by way of preamble to a new Pentagon investigation of fraud in
military construction. The investigation concluded that three senior Army
Corps of Engineers officials had, just as one whistle-blowing Corps economist
had claimed, engaged in a deceitful campaign to justify what the Washington
Post called "a billion-dollar construction binge on the Mississippi and
Illinois rivers."

"The [Pentagon] investigators concluded that the agency's aggressive efforts
to expand its budget and missions, as well as its eagerness to please its
corporate customers and congressional patrons, have helped 'create an
atmosphere where objectivity in its analyses was placed in jeopardy,'" the
Post reports.

"Even the agency's retired chief economist told them that Corps studies were
often 'corrupt,' and that several Corps employees cited 'immense pressure' to
green-light questionable projects."

Bureaucratic boondoggles of such magnitude are certainly newsworthy. But they
are hardly news. Just as the Soviets derided the failures of previous Five
Year Plans (only to implement new, equally flawed versions), so it seems that
every few years the Pentagon uncovers massive corruption and waste in its own
centrally planned fiefdom -- only to present a new Plan that operates under
the same bad incentives that encouraged prior malfeasance.

With corruption and waste seemingly "taken care of," the worst pork-barrel
spenders in Congress and the military are then let off the hook, only to
enjoy -- like Casablanca's Renault and Rick -- an amicable toast to the
beginnings of a beautiful new friendship.

-------------------------------------------------------------

THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROPAGANDA AGENCY

Will the neck-to-neck presidential race help reduce -- or intensify --
pressure for the next president of the United States to score points with
statist environmental activists?

Except on a few controversial issues, a strong case can be made that the
forty-third President of the United States will wish to portray himself as a
close friend of "the environment." President George W. Bush, for example,
would face strong pressure to show that he is "bipartisan" in his approach to
environmental protection; whereas President Al Gore would likely attempt to
win back those who supported Nader and the Greens.

All the more reason, then, to call attention to the failures of the current
approach to environmental protection -- especially those emanating from the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or, as economist Craig Marxsen terms
it, the Environmental Propaganda Agency.

The EPA sometimes employs the language of cost-benefit analysis to illustrate
its seemingly tremendous success, but it is known to employ it in a highly
misleading manner. The EPA claimed, for example, that its Clean Air Act
programs produced, from 1970 to 1990, $22.2 trillion dollars in health
benefits at a cost of only $523 billion. But, reports Marxsen in THE
INDEPENDENT REVIEW, "[The EPA's] study actually represents a milestone in
bureaucratic propaganda. Like junk science in the courtroom, the study
seemingly attempts to obtain the largest possible benefit figure rather than
to come as close as possible to the truth."

In conclusion, writes Marxsen, "Without the illusory benefit of all the lives
saved, the actual benefits of the Clean Air Act were very modest and probably
could have been achieved nearly as well with far less sacrifice. The Clean
Air Act and its amendments force the EPA to mandate reduction of air
pollution to levels that would have no adverse health effects on even the
most sensitive person in the population. The EPA relentlessly presses forward
in its absurd quest, like a madman setting fire to his house in an insane
determination to eliminate the last of the insects infesting it."

Marxsen (THE INDEPENDENT REVIEW, Summer 2000), at

WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON, Antislavery Crusader

"I will be as harsh as truth, and as uncompromising as justice. On this
subject, I do not wish to think, or speak, or write with moderation.... I
will not equivocate -- I will not excuse -- I will not retreat a single inch
-- and I will be heard."
     -- William Lloyd Garrison, THE LIBERATOR, January 1, 1831

December 12 marks the 195th anniversary of the birth of William Lloyd
Garrison, a leading figure in the American abolitionist movement. As the late
historian Henry Mayer explained in his National Book Award-Finalist
biography, ALL ON FIRE: William Lloyd Garrison and the Abolition of Slavery:

"William Lloyd Garrison (1805-1879) is an authentic American hero who, with a
Biblical prophet's power and a propagandist's skill, forced the nation to
confront the most crucial moral issue in its history. For thirty-five years
he edited and published a weekly newspaper in Boston, THE LIBERATOR, which
remains today a sterling and unrivaled example of personal journalism in the
service of civic idealism.

"Although Garrison -- a self-made man with a scanty formal education --
considered himself 'a New England mechanic' and lived outside the precincts
of the American intelligentsia, he nonetheless did the hard intellectual work
of challenging orthodoxy, questioning public policy, and offering a luminous
vision of a society transformed. He inspired two generations of activists --
female and male, black and white -- and together they built a social movement
which, like the civil rights movement of our own day, was a collaboration of
ordinary people, stirred by injustice and committed to each other, who
achieved a social change that conventional wisdom first condemned as wrong
and then ridiculed as impossible."

Indeed, without Garrison's inflammatory but compelling writing, speaking and
organizing, there might have been no effective American anti-slavery movement
at all.

For more on William Lloyd Garrison, read historian Henry Mayer's talk from
the Independent Policy Forum, "The Civil War: Liberty and American Leviathan"
(with Jeffrey Rogers Hummel), at
http://www.independent.org/tii/lighthouse/LHLink2-48-6.html, or hear it in
RealAudio at http://www.independent.org/tii/lighthouse/LHLink2-48-7.html.

Jim:

Attached is a fairly distilled summary of the projects Enron's offered to the
utilities, DWR and the ISO over the past 9-12 months, or so.  With respect to
the power contracts offered to the IOUs, only the offers accepted by PG&E and
Edison are included---the desk doesn't keep records of offers rejected, only
offers accepted.  However, I'm fairly confident that I can dig deeper and get
more info on the other power deals offered to Edison, PG&E and SDG&E if folks
would like that information.  Just let me know. Prices are included for the
offers that had prices attached when submitted.

Best,
Jeff

could have word with Boge about how important we regard this case, it would

Read Full Story   [IMAGE]   [IMAGE]   Sony PC to offer DVD, TV recording  Sony Electronics unveiled Thursday a Vaio desktop computer that includes a DVD drive and TV tuner along with built-in recording technology.

In the filing, AOL Time Warner, which has been operating as a joint entity for the past four months, said it recorded a restructuring liability of approximately $965 million during its first quarter.

Hoping to corral buyers who can't decide whether to buy a notebook or desktop PC, the Houston-based computer maker is experimenting with a line of business notebooks that transform into desktop PCs. The PC is designed to fold over and create a stand for a 15-inch, flat-panel display with removable wireless keyboard and mouse.

Ontario, Canada-based RIM charges in a suit filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Delaware that Glenayre Technologies violates a patent protecting the way the BlackBerry redirects e-mail from a computer or server to a handheld using a single e-mail address. Charlotte, N.C.-based Glenayre already has a pending suit of its own against RIM.

Called Mawanella--the name of a Sri Lankan village--the worm carries a Sri Lankan political message, but does no real damage besides clogging networks with e-mail.

Please unlink this CP from Enpower at the end of the day today.  all deals
have been moved to the authorized agent record.  Please let me know when
complete so that I can refresh.


Joe,

Don't forget to pick up the most important person in the whole, wide world
today.  Remember, Friday traffic blows so if you wait much past 4:00 to go
get him, you'll be kickin yourself all the way home.
