                                    --------

Enron Wind Systems, LLC
Mr. James Sanford
1400 Smith Street                              Right-of-Way Grant # CA-11688-A
A44142
Houston, Texas


                   Right-of-Way Grant Expiration Date Extended
                   -------------------------------------------
                     New Expiration Date is January 26, 2013
                     ---------------------------------------


Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Right-of-Way (R/W) grant # CACA11688-A was
issued for a term of twenty years beginning on January 26, 1983. At the time of
issuance, a stipulation was included in the grant that provides for an
additional ten (10) years to be added to the term if warranted and unless the
grant is relinquished, abandoned, or otherwise terminated.

The BLM has determined that continued use of your R/W grant, for commercial
energy production, is consistent with the original purposes for which the grant
was issued. The operation of the authorized facility is in conformance with the
terms and conditions of the grant. The BLM is not aware of any issues that would
necessitate review of this grant prior to issuance of this ten-year extension.
Therefore, the BLM grants this extension of 10 years to the term of the original
grant. All other terms and conditions of the grant apply.

This decision may be appealed to the Interior Board of Land Appeals, Office of
the Secretary, in accordance with the regulations contained in 43 CFR, Part 4,
and the enclosed Form 1842-1. If an appeal is taken, your notice of appeal must
be filed in this office (at the above address) within 30 days from receipt of

this decision. The appellant has the burden of showing that the decision
appealed from is in error.

If you wish to file a petition pursuant to regulation 43 CFR 4.21 (58 FR 4939,
January 19, 1993) or 43 CFR 2804.1 for a stay of the effectiveness of this
decision during the time that your appeal is being reviewed by the Board, the
petition for a stay must accompany your notice of appeal. A petition for a stay
is required to show sufficient justification based on the standards listed
below. Copies of the notice of appeal and petition for a stay must also be
submitted to each party named in this decision and to the Interior Board of Land
Appeals and to the appropriate Office of the Solicitor (see 43 CFR 4.413) at the
same time the original documents are filed with this office. If you request a
stay, you have the burden of proof to demonstrate that a stay should be granted.

                         Standards for Obtaining a Stay
                         ------------------------------

Except as otherwise provided by law or other pertinent regulation, a petition
for a stay of a decision pending appeal shall show sufficient justification
based on the following standards:

     (1)  The relative harm to the parties of the stay is granted or denied;

     (2)  The likelihood of the appellant's success on the merits;

     (3)  The likelihood of immediate and irreparable harm if the stay is not
          granted; and

     (4)  Whether the public interest favors granting the stay.
