?????Davis joined lawmakers in_the Capitol on Tuesday to outline_his plan to

collect money_from ratepayers_and then not use the_funds to repay_the small_

 MTBE were either shut down or
operating at severely reduced capacity from December to February, including
Enron Corp., Valero Energy Corp. and Global Octanes Corp.
As a result, the year started with around 8 million barrels, or 14 percent
less than last January's supplies, which industry analysts already considered
tight a year ago.
Although natural gas prices eased last month and allowed MTBE plants to come
back up, there were problems in restarting several of the facilities after
remaining idle for a month or two.
Last year's Midwest gasoline spike came amid new environmental rules imposing
more stringent regulations for a new reformulated grade called RFG 2.
This year, industry sources say the outlook looks just as expensive for the
consumers in the Midwest, especially after the closure of refiner Premcor's
80,000 barrel per day Blue Island refinery outside Chicago. The defunct
plant's production used to provide Chicago with about half of its cleaner
gasoline.
In an attempt to steer clear of volatile prices, the Environmental Protection
Agency said last week it will relax its emission standards from gasoline in
Chicago and Milwaukee, which basically allows more ethanol - the corn-based
alternative oxygenate to MTBE.

ENRON SALE OF UNIT TO SIERRA PACIFIC IS DOUBTED

The Enron Corporation said yesterday that its $3.1 billion sale of the
Portland General Electric Company to Sierra Pacific Resources might not be
completed. ''There's probably a 5 percent probability that Sierra Pacific's
purchase of Portland General will be consummated,'' the chief executive,
Jeffrey Skilling, said on a conference call with investors. Enron said in
January that Sierra Pacific might not be able to sell a Nevada power plant
stake as needed to win regulatory approval for the Portland General
transaction. Enron blamed a California law that barred public utilities from
shedding generators until 2005 because of an electricity shortage.

Key Technical Developments (close of 06/08)
-------------------------------------------------------
I'm watching that disappointing close on the DOW, on a
Friday, now sitting just below the 10 Day Moving Average.
Then I'm looking at potential support from the 40 Day at about
10867 and the strong bullish trend of that 40 Day. We could
see a slide down to that 40 day, but it should act as
support. We might expect a strong bounce upwards from this
level of important support. A key tool that adds much
confidence is our exclusive "breadth" indicator known
as the CTS PowerTrend rating. It is currently at +11. We
update the PowerTrend rating every day in the CTS Dow
Selector and watching it can give you a powerful snapshot
of short-term strength (or weakness) of the DOW (we also
have the PowerTrend on the Futures, NASDAQ, and S&P
Selectors too!).

July cotton has tried to correct some of the recent
decline. A very weak market, with weak intra market
spreads. The price pattern takes the shape of a bear
flag. A move below support of 41.50, points to 37.50.
(We also cover key resistance levels in today's Daily
Trend Watch in the Advisory menu, Futures, Daily Trend

Hi Ravi,

I wanted to follow up directly with you and see if you or anyone at Enron
had any interest in participating in the proposed CAIDA "Metrics" working
group meeting?

Please let me know.

Amy E. Blanchard

phone: (858) 534-8338

   B.  WG Charters, Meeting on 2 Mar 00

I believe that we should instead run a single CAIDA Working Group
on 'Network Metrics,' rather than the two proposed earlier.  My draft
of its charter is appended below.  It focuses on producing educational
material about network measurement, and on developing new metrics - these
were the two areas of greatest interest amongst the CAIDA members.

The WG co-chairs are
  Sue Moon (SprintLabs) and Brett Watson (MFN/Abovenet)

You are invited to attend the first WG meeting.
The agenda is as follows..

    B.   WG Charters, Meeting on 2 Mar 00

 I think that we should instead move a single CAIDA Working Group

 of its charter is add below.   It focuses on producing educational
 material about network measurement, and on developing new metrics - these
 were the two areas of greatest interest amongst the CAIDA members.

   Sue Moon (SprintLabs) and Brett Watson (MFN / Abovenet)

 You are invited to attend the first WG merging.

   1. Review


 not discussed with
MIke so I am not sure what is the meaning of adding this term.  We need to
also think in terms of how we could be harmed in a situation where GE fails
to comply with law, and instead of Enron incurring a monetary penalty, is
ordered to shut down the facility.

Limit of liability issues:
They want to limit their indemnity obligations for complying with laws,
patent infringement, liability for haz. waste and liens to 100% of purchase
price.
They want the limit of liability to apply to gross negligence, if possible.
Agree - See 1st comment above re indemnity.
They don't want to clarify that they have to indemnify us for another
party's claim for consequentials (as in a personal injury claim).  Agree.

We've don't have anything concrete on assignment yet.  Agree.

Comments?  I suggest we get together before our next scheduled conf. call
to discuss our game plan.

Sheila has asked that we change Wednesday's call to 1100 Central, or 100
Central if 1100 doesn't work.  Is this a problem?  Works for me...just let
me know when, where, ect.

 also think in terms of how we could be harm in a situation where GE fails

 Limit of indebtedness issues:
 They want to limit their indemnity debt instrument for complying with law,

 price.
 They want the terminus ad quem of liability to apply to megascopic negligence, if possible.

 not_discussed with
MIke_so I am not_sure what_is_the meaning_of_adding this term._ We need_to
also think in terms_of how we_could_be harmed in a situation where GE fails
to comply with law, and instead of_Enron_incurring a_monetary_penalty,_is
ordered to shut down the_facility.

Limit of liability issues:
They want_to limit_their indemnity obligations for complying with laws,
patent infringement,_liability_for haz. waste_and liens to 100% of purchase
price.
They want the limit_of liability to apply to gross_negligence, if possible.
Agree_-_See_1st comment above re_indemnity.
They don't want to clarify that_they have to indemnify us for_another
party's claim for consequentials (as in a_personal injury claim).  Agree.

We've don't_have anything concrete on assignment_yet. _Agree.

Comments?  I suggest we_get together before_our next_scheduled conf. call
to_discuss our game plan.

Sheila has asked_that we change_Wednesday's call to 1100 Central, or_100
Central_if 1100 doesn't_work.__Is this_a problem? _Works_for me...just_let
me_know when, where, ect.

Kay

They should have_to

Subject:  GE Language

Folks,

Having conferred at last with my colleagues,_I can now forward to you_our
draft language for the_Indemnity and_LOL_clauses.  As_Steve_mentioned in
his
earlier_message, he has suggested some issues to_discuss which_could bring
us closer to resolution on_that issue.  Please_let_me know if you have any
question!

Best_regards,

     Mike
