content: Bob,
Two things:
1. Send these sentence to the Cal Px:
"Enron thinks that the elimination of physical risk during the month of
August will be of commercial benefit because Enron expects that during the
month of August there will be transmission line derations affecting the hour
ahead market which will lead to TO debit charges by the CAISO. The
elimination of TO debit charges is a commercial benefit to Enron. "
I will call them and discuss this with them when I get back on next Tuesday.
2. Do not do any financial BF trades in September. Let's sort it back
through with them. The letter is surprising and we need to figure out why
they sent it. One month of financial at 50% is ok, but lets not do any more
till we talk to them. ----cgy | christian.yoder@enron.com | robert.badeer@enron.com |

15:13 GMT 16 August 2000 DJ Calif ISO Exceeded $250 Cap In Off-system Buys
-Sources
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--The California Independent System Operator had to pay
more than its stated maximum price of $250 a megawatt-hour this week due to
short supplies of electricity in the western U.S. amid high air-conditioning
demand, according to market sources.
Under its price cap rules, the ISO is allowed to exceed its cap in
"out-of-market" purchases, which is when it purchases power in deals
arranged directly with sellers over the phone, rather than through its usual
computer-based purchasing system. The current cap was lowered to $250/MWh
from $500/MWh starting August 7.
The ISO wouldn't confirm that it had to pay more than $250 Monday.
"We're not going to reveal whether this is happening, or at what price,"
spokeswoman Stephanie McCorkel told Dow Jones Newswires. "For the sake of
protecting consumers, we will keep our price strategy confidiential. But any
out-of-market purchase above the cap is very rare."
On Sunday, the ISO agreed to pay about $350/MWh at Palo Verde to a southwest
utility for on-peak Monday power, according to a trader for the utility, who
spoke on the condition of anonymity. Bilateral trades not involving the ISO
were done as high as $375/MWh Monday afternoon in the real-time market.
Other market sources said that the ISO exceeded its cap again Tuesday
afternoon, when several major California generating units were be taken off
line for unplanned repairs, and the real-time market rose to $500/MWh for
one hour at Palo Verde. Those purchases couldn't be confirmed with sellers.
According to its price cap rule, "Such reduced cap shall not apply to
out-of-market calls placed by management to out-of-state generator
resources."
Some market participants say that regular out-of-market purchases above
$250/MWh could persuade suppliers to not offer power to the ISO via its
computer-based system, which has plateaued at $250/MWh for most of both
Monday and Tuesday afternoons.
And owners of generating stations in California say there is no
justification for giving preferential treatment to out-of-state generators.

=DJ Calif Generators: `We Welcome Probe Into Power Market' (This article
was originally published Tuesday) By Jason Leopold OF DOW JONES
NEWSWIRES LOS ANGELES (Dow Jones)--When California Attorney General Bill
Lockyer completes his investigation into possible "collusion" in the
wholesale electricity market by generators, energy companies say he will
probably find the same thing Geraldo Rivera found in Al Capone's safe:
nothing. Still, those companies that own generation in the state say they
welcome the probe into the power market by Attorney General Bill Lockyer.
"We have done nothing wrong at all," said Tom Williams, spokesman for Duke
Energy North America (DUK). "Our plants have been running all summer long.
Prices are high throughout the west. We wouldn't invest $1.7 billion in new
generation and then try and rig the market." For the past two months,
utilities, lawmakers and other market participants have made allegations
that generators are manipulating the market and are largely responsible for
the price spikes. Locker's office said an investigation is still pending.
State regulators are also conducting their own investigation, the findings
of which will be submitted to the governor and the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission by the end of the year. Allegations Said Unsubstantiated There
isn't a shred of evidence to support allegations, said Severing Borenstein,
director of the University of California, Berkley's, Energy Institute.
"There are no antitrust laws that state you can't charge a premium price for
power," Borenstein said. "Manipulation is a bad word. That's used in the
commodities market to find a loophole and take advantage of the rules. "I
would say this is exercising market power. ... If you want to charge high
prices you can. These are guys who play against each other every day. There
is no sort of collusion that would interest the justice department ... ."
The reason for the inquiry ordered By Gov. Gray Davis, he said, is as a
consequence of San Diego consumers being the first in the nation to pay
market-based rates for electricity. The high wholesale costs paid by
utility San Diego Gas & Electric, a unit of Sempra Energy (SRE), were passed
on to ratepayers and resulted in utility bills more than doubling. Gov.
Davis ordered the inquiry and asked federal regulators to conduct their own
investigation as well. Dynegy (DYN) President Steve Bergstrom also says
that an investigation "will turn up nothing." So why conduct one? "This is
a very politically charged issue," Bergstrom said. "When something goes
wrong you have to find someone to point the finger at." A source in the
governor's office said Davis is aware that Attorney General Lockyer's
investigation may turn up nothing, but Gov. Davis "has a responsibility to
his constituents." Supply vs. Demand What the investigation will turn up
is evidence that there is a shortage of power in the state and not enough
power plants being built to meet increasing demand, said Terry Winter,
chairman and chief executive officer of the California Independent System
Operator. Winter said he doesn't believe that there is anything wrong with
the way generators sell their power and 98% of the time the market works
well. "Is it market abuse to bid at the price cap ($250 per megawatt-hour)
knowing that you're 1,000 MW short? I have trouble identifying that as
market power abuse," Winter said. Despite some proposed regulatory changes,
such as bid caps on wholesale energy prices and a rate freeze for SDG&E
customers, Duke Energy, Dynegy, Southern Co. (SO) and Reliant (RLI) all
still plan to invest in generation in the state. That's a different stance
than the companies took a month ago when the ISO reduced the wholesale price
cap in the real-time market to $250/MWh. "At the end of the day the market
is short power and you got to get people to build new generation," said
Dynegy's Bergstrom. "We got a big investment in California. We're not
walking away from that." -By Jason Leopold, Dow Jones Newswires;

12:15 GMT 16 August 2000 DJ Calif ISO Urges FERC To Reject Pwr Producers'
Complaint
(This article was originally published Tuesday)
WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--California's power grid administrator Monday urged
federal regulators to reject a complaint from power producers seeking
compensation in the event out-of-state power transactions are curtailed
during an extreme power grid emergency.
The independent system operator told the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission that the power producers seek compensation in the event of a
"situation that never has occurred any time since the ISO began operations,
and if it were to occur in the future, would do so rarely."
The ISO noted that its tariff governing access to the state's grid already
allows for compensation in the event of curtailed exports, and decried the
power producers' complaint as "a collateral attack" on a previous FERC order
rejecting claims that the tariff failed to provide adequate compensation.
Curtailing scheduled power transactions and exports would be a last resort
measure taken only after other options have been exhausted, the ISO said.
The power producers should adjust their contracts to factor in the risk of
interruption in the event of a state-wide grid emergency, the ISO said.
The ISO's objections were echoed by the state's electricity distribution
utilities and California regulators.
They complained that the power producers are merely trying to get out from
under the price controls the ISO has imposed in an effort to rein in
skyrocketing power prices this summer.
The generators "knew when they purchased California power plants and when
they entered into their export contracts that the ISO could alter their
schedules in an emergency. For them to ask the commission to make it even
more expensive, and hence, more difficult, for the ISO to maintain grid
reliability in California is irresponsible," said Southern California
Edison, a unit of Edison International (EIX).
"The complaint is a sham," declared the California Public Utilities
Commission.
"The true intent of the complaint ... is to avoid the ISO price caps by
making sales to affiliates or cooperating entities located out of state, and
sell the power back to the ISO at uncapped prices reflecting the generators'
market power," the PUC said, calling for FERC to summarily reject the
complaint.
"The complaint is factually unsupported, legally unfounded, complains of
conduct consistent with the ISO's authority under pertinent FERC decisions,
and seeks to avoid the price cap," the PUC said.
But power marketers and other power producers voiced support for the
complaint, filed Aug. 3 by Reliant Power Generation Inc. (REI), Dynegy Power
Marketing Inc. (DYN) and Southern Energy California (SO).
"By subjecting curtailed energy transactions to its maximum purchase price
of $250, and simply ignoring the financial impact on sellers, the Cal ISO
would be overtly discriminating against export transactions and market
participants who schedule energy for export," said the Electric Power Supply
Association, the national trade group representing competitive power
producers.
"It is critical that power producers ... know with certainty that the
curtailment of scheduled energy exports by Cal ISO will be compensated,"
said Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc.
"Now that the ISO Governing Board has lowered purchase price caps to $250,
it is significantly more likely that the curtailment of exports will occur
more frequently. Less energy will be imported into California and more
energy will leave California in search of higher prices," said Williams
Energy Marketing & Trading Co. in support of the complaint's call for actual
damages and lost opportunity costs.
At least one power purchaser voiced support for the producers' position as
well.
"It seems a very basic point that if the Cal ISO must divert the
transactions of others to meet its own loads, that is should pay the full
costs of doing so," said the Northern California Power Agency.

content: UPDATE ON INTER-SC TRADES ADJUSTMENT BID PROJECT TIMELINE
Market Participants:
Market Participants, through TSWG, have expressed concern about the
currently scheduled release time between 10 minute settlements and Inter-SC
Trade Adjustment Bid functionality. As a result of the delay to
implementation of 10 minute settlements, the release time frame has
decreased from the original 1 month to approximately 2 weeks. Understanding
these timing concerns, the ISO has decided to delay the implementation of
Inter-SC Trade Adjustment Bid.
Therefore, the ISO is revising the implementation target date for Inter-SC
Trade Adjustment Bid until the first week of October 1, 2000. Following is
an updated project timeline.
Prior to the ISO making this decision, feedback from both business and
technical sides of the Market Participants were taken into consideration.
It was determined that this later date will allow Market Participants
additional testing time to prepare for a successful implementation of the
Inter-SC Trade Adjustment Bid software.

We need to come up (very quickly) with a strategy on how to get the market
information that will be important for FERC Investigation into the public
arena.
I keep thinking that FERC can require the information and somehow get it made
public right away.
1. What information is not public that would be helpful?
2. What strategy will work to get FERC to take action?

power producers' complaint as "a collateral attack" on a previous FERC order
rejecting claims that the tariff failed to provide adequate compensation.
Curtailing scheduled power transactions and exports would be a last resort
measure taken only after other options have been exhausted, the ISO said.
The power producers should adjust their contracts to factor in the risk of
interruption in the event of a state-wide grid emergency, the ISO said.
The ISO's objections were echoed by the state's electricity distribution
utilities and California regulators.
They complained that the power producers are merely trying to get out from
under the price controls the ISO has imposed in an effort to rein in
skyrocketing power prices this summer.
The generators "knew when they purchased California power plants and when
they entered into their export contracts that the ISO could alter their
schedules in an emergency. For them to ask the commission to make it even
more expensive, and hence, more difficult, for the ISO to maintain grid
reliability in California is irresponsible," said Southern California
Edison, a unit of Edison International (EIX).
"The complaint is a sham," declared the California Public Utilities
Commission.
"The true intent of the complaint ... is to avoid the ISO price caps by
making sales to affiliates or cooperating entities located out of state, and
sell the power back to the ISO at uncapped prices reflecting the generators'
market power," the PUC said, calling for FERC to summarily reject the
complaint.
"The complaint is factually unsupported, legally unfounded, complains of
conduct consistent with the ISO's authority under pertinent FERC decisions,
and seeks to avoid the price cap," the PUC said.
But power marketers and other power producers voiced support for the
complaint, filed Aug. 3 by Reliant Power Generation Inc. (REI), Dynegy Power
Marketing Inc. (DYN) and Southern Energy California (SO).
"By subjecting curtailed energy transactions to its maximum purchase price
of $250, and simply ignoring the financial impact on sellers, the Cal ISO
would be overtly discriminating against export transactions and market
participants who schedule energy for export," said the Electric Power Supply
Association, the national trade group representing competitive power
producers.
"It is critical that power producers ... know with certainty that the
curtailment of scheduled energy exports by Cal ISO will be compensated,"
said Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc.
"Now that the ISO Governing Board has lowered purchase price caps to $250,
it is significantly more likely that the curtailment of exports will occur
more frequently. Less energy will be imported into California and more
energy will leave California in search of higher prices," said Williams
Energy Marketing & Trading Co. in support of the complaint's call for actual
damages and lost opportunity costs.
At least one power purchaser voiced support for the producers' position as
well.
"It seems a very basic point that if the Cal ISO must divert the
transactions of others to meet its own loads, that is should pay the full
costs of doing so," said the Northern California Power Agency.

CalPX To Ask FERC To Reduce Day-of, Day-Ahead Price Cap:
Board Caves In To Political Pressure
By Jason Leopold
LOS ANGELES--The California Power Exchange, the spot market where electricity
is
bought and sold in the state, approved a measure Wednesday seeking federal
authority to impose a
$350 per megawatt-hour bid cap on wholesale power prices in its day-of and
day-ahead markets.
Members of the CalPX's board of governors admitted that the measure was
approved
as a result of
intense political pressure being placed on the board by state lawmakers and
Gov.
Gray Davis.
"Not approving this is political suicide," said CalPX board member Carolyn
Keherein, who also serves
on the board of governors at the California Independent System Operator.
"We're
not changing
anything but the perception in the market."
The CalPX current cap on wholesale power prices in the day-of and day-ahead
market is set at $2,500,
but that is only a technical limitation of their computer system and has had
no
effect on power prices.
State lawmakers believe a price cap would stabilize high power prices being
passed on to retail
customers, most notably consumers in San Diego. Ratepayers there are paying
market-based rates for
electricity and have seen their utility bills nearly triple in the past two
months.
The price cap would need to be approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission before it goes
into effect at the Power Exchange. FERC has not indicated whether it would OK
the measure, but said
it would investigate it.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me directly.

content: We recently installed two new digital copiers in the break room. For the
most part, they are very user friendly, and I have been able to make
different types of copy jobs without any training at all. However, we have
the capability to provide formal training with a Xerox representative on a
prescheduled basis.
A training session, which can accommodate five people for training, is
scheduled for Thursday at 9:30 a.m. The training takes an hour and a half.
If more than five individuals request training on Thursday, I will schedule
another training session at a later date.
For your information, if you are not interested in formal training there is
an instructional CD that you can borrow to learn about the features of the
equipment, and there is a manual you can borrow if you would like to borrow
it for instructional purposes.
Please contact me if you are interested in attending Xerox training on
Thursday at 9:30 a.m. or if you would be interested in training at another
time, and I will coordinate these training efforts.

Wednesday to provide financial assistance to low-income families and small
businesses in Southern California to help them cope with high electricity
bills, the White
House said in a written statement.
Clinton also ordered the release of $2.6 million from the Low Income Home
Energy
Assistance Program to help low-income families in Southern California. The
Small
Business Administration will urge its lending partners to use SBA credit
programs to
help small businesses with their energy costs.
Clinton is taking the action because of a steep rise in the wholesale price
of electricity,
the statement said.
In addition, Clinton has called on Energy Secretary Bill Richardson to ask
the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission to speed up an investigation into the bulk
market for
electricity "so that state and federal regulators and policy makers can
have the
information they need to protect consumers in a timely fashion."
Clinton's actions marks the second time this summer the president has
stepped in to
help California cope with its electricity shortages. Earlier, Clinton
called on all federal
facilities in California to cut their power usage and to direct power back
into the
electricity grid.

This Market Notification serves to advise you of the posting of the
Retro-Active November 16th - 30th 1999 UFE Market Adjustments resulting from
the ISO 1999 UFE Project results. The June 20, 2000 Preliminary Settlement
Statement (PSS) contains the appropriate retro-active charge type
adjustments, specific to each participating SC.
This is the Seventh of Nine retro-active UFE adjustment to be processed, to
correct the UFE related settlement quality meter data (SQMD) problems
experienced commencing August 21st 1999 in the PG&E UDC Service Area, which
continued through December 31, 1999.
A copy of this ISO Project's final Report was previously distributed on June
15, 2000.
The UFE related market adjustments are reflected in Charge Types (CT)
111,112,114,115,116,402,403, 406, 1010,1011, 1030,1210. GMC (CT 351) will
also be reconciled for those SC's which reported revised load, consistent
with any resubmitted UFE Project meter data.
The ISO will continue to monitor system UFE on a regular basis, conduct
periodic meter data audits, work with Market participants to help assure
SQMD, and address any issues which arise. Once again, our appreciation for
the Market's assistance to help assure an accurate UFE Market settlement and
for submission of SQMD!

MARKET NOTICE
This Market Notification is to advise you of a misallocation of UFE that has
been identified in the SCE and Pasadena's UDC territories between the Trade
dates of April 27, 2000 and June 27, 2000 .
On April 26, 2000 the ISO made a change to the ISO Masterfile that
eliminated the ability for SCs to submit a schedule at the intra-tie
resource ID for the Pasadena UDC territory. This change in turn, prevented
the meter data that was directly collected by the ISO at the intra-tie/load
point to be used in the Settlement calculations.
The effect of this change was that from Trade date April 27, 2000 until
corrected for Trade date June 28, 2000 the UFE calculation was performed
without the proper data representing the intra-tie point between the SCE and
Pasadena UDC territories. This caused UFE to be more positive in the SCE UDC
territory and more negative in the Pasadena UDC territory. The UFE
calculation used the appropriate meter data, for Trade dates June 28, 2000
forward .
The ISO is in process of determining the method to reallocate the UFE for
the period between Trade dates April 27, 2000 and June 27, 2000. The
magnitude of the misallocation is estimated at approximately $14.5 Million .
Further notification to the Market will be made after the ISO determines the
reallocation method and timeline .

*DJ Calif Assembly Delays SDG&E Rate Roll-Back Vote To Thu
Question About Who Will Pay Elec Bills
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--The California State Assembly has postponed until
Thursday
a vote on restoring electricity rates for customers of San Diego Gas &
Electric Co. to
pre-deregulation levels, according to a spokesman for Assemblywoman Susan
Davis
(D-San Diego), who is sponsoring the bill.
The bill was sent to the assembly's appropriations committee because some
representatives are concerned about who - if not SDG&E customers - will pay
for
electricity in the city this summer and past spring. The difference between
what SDG&E
customers would pay under the legislation and what SDG&E is paying for
supplies in
the skyrocketing electricity markets has been estimated at $1.5 billion.
Assembly Passage Of Measure Uncertain
The legislation would roll back electricity rates to June 1, 1999, levels
for customers of
SDG&E, a unit of Sempra Energy (SRE). This spring and summer, the utility's
customers have received electricity bills that are nearly triple what they
were last year.
Electricity rates for the state's other utilities haven't been deregulated
yet, so their
customers are receiving fixed prices per kilowatt-hour of power used.
Prospects for passage of the bill, AB 2290, are unclear in the Assembly.
The California
State Senate passed the bill unanimously last week. But it would need 54
votes to pass
through the 80-member Assembly before Gov. Gray Davis could consider
signing it into
law.
If all 47 Democrats approve the measure, it would need at least seven
Republican votes
to pass. But, as reported Tuesday, only three Republican lawmakers said
they would
support the bill.
The rollback would provide some economic relief to SDG&E's 1.1 million
customers,
who have been paying market-based rates for electricity since June. If the
rollback is
approved, utility bills for residential customers would be about $55 to $60
a month,
according to SDG&E.
Steve Maviglio, press secretary to Davis, said the governor hasn't decided
whether he
would sign the bill into law if approved.
Monday, the state's Public Utilities Commission rejected a proposal to roll
back rates,
instead approving a stabilization rate plan that would reduce the cost of
electricity to
about $68 a month for residential customers who conserve usage.

Wanted to say hello. My trip to Ireland and England
was a blast. Had a good time in both countries. A lot
of history blah, blah, blah. Been with the first
Marines for about two weeks and I am beginning to
figure my way around. Working out every day and
running (on my own) a great deal. Do not want to be
the wimp of the bunch. Should be fun two years with a
lot of training which will culminate with a deployment
to WestPac next year sometime and thats it.
Otherwise thing are good for me. I will be heading bck
to NY for the third week in Sept to attend a wedding
of my HS friend Gary. You probably remember him. Will
be home for a week. First time since I left Med
school. Taking my girlfriend with me back home. She
has already met the Rat in Vegas. She also met Gary
and his bride to be when they came out here for a
week in the winter.
Hope all is well with you. Any little Bobs in the
future? Stay in touch and I hope the Yankees can hold
on and the Knicks finally unload the old man. Now,
there is no way they can compete with Miami.
Later,
Fran

DJ US Sen. Feinstein Urges Cap For Western US Power Market
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein, D-Calif., on Wednesday
urged
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to place a regionwide cap on
wholesale
electricity rates for the western United States.
To date, a price cap of $250 per megawatt-hour has been placed only on
California's
power market. A regional cap is necessary to avoid "electricity bidding
wars" between
western states during power shortages that could result in blackouts in
California,
Feinstein said.
"As is clearly evident, the energy market in San Diego is not functioning,
at this time,
as a true market," Feinstein said in a letter to FERC Chairman James J.
Hoecker. "The
lack of energy generation has produced a dramatic increase in electricity
prices with
many families and businesses facing energy bills two or three times higher
than normal
and has led to the possibility of wholesale price gouging."
Feinstein also supported President Clinton's use Wednesday of $2.6 million
in
emergency energy assistance funds for low income households, and special
credit
programs for small businesses.

The California ISO is initiating this Request for Bids in an effort to
obtain up to 3,000 MW of new generation resources to allow the ISO to
operate the ISO Control Area to meet Applicable Reliability Criteria under
peak Demand conditions during the Summer Period of 2001.
While the ISO seeks to acquire generation resources under this RFB through
one-year agreements, it will also consider bids that require an ISO
commitment for the Summer Periods of 2002 and 2003 if responses proposing
one-year arrangements prove insufficient to meet the ISO's requirements.
The RFB is attached to this email and posted on the ISO Web site at

DJ US Northwest Pwr Forwards Higher On Water; SW 3Q Up
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Forward prices for electricity in the northwest U.S.
rose
Thursday on concerns about hydroelectric supplies in the region, traders
said.
Hydroelectric dam reservoirs are low in the Northwest due to a lack of rain
the past
several weeks. River flows have been even lower than forecast this week,
and
hydroelectric generators have been run as much as possible to make up for
reductions
in supply from the Colstrip generating station in Montana. Transmission
lines from the
station had to be turned off several times over the past two weeks due to
forest fires in
the state.
"All the generators on the Columbia River right now are sucking mud," one
northwest
utility prescheduler said Thursday.
Southwest prompt forwards were flat Thursday, but third quarter 2001
contracts started
racing higher late in the day. Traders said that Enron Corp. is a big
buyer. The market
rumor is that the California Independent System Operator is in the market
for 3,000
megawatts of supply for next summer.
California-Oregon Border contracts for September traded Thursday at
$197-$205 per
megawatt-hour, compared with Wednesday's range of $181-$190/MWh.
October COB traded at $139-$145/MWh, compared with $126-$129/MWh Wednesday.
September Palo Verde contracts traded at $175-$178/MWh, unchanged.
Third-quarter
2001 Palo Verde traded at $182-$200/MWh Thursday, compared with
$175-$177/MWh
Wednesday.

News Brief
+High Cost of Oil and Natural Gas Puts FPL $518 Million Behind in Fuel
Expense Recovery
Faced with skyrocketing oil and natural gas prices and heavy seasonal demand
for electricity, Florida Power & Light Company has filed preliminary
paperwork with the Florida Public Service Commission identifying $518
million in expenses above projections for fuel burned to produce electricity
in 2000. FPL will file with the Commission in September for permission to
recover the expense in customer bills beginning Jan. 1, 2001.
Part of this increase will be offset by a refund to customers that is
currently estimated to be $75 million to $100 million. The refund is
pursuant to an agreement reached in April 1999 with the Office of the Public
Counsel and the FPSC that provides for revenue sharing between FPL and its
customers, as well as a 6% annual rate reduction for three years. As a
result of the forecasted fuel costs and the expected rebate, residential
electric rates could increase by approximately 13% per kilowatt-hour.
The cost of oil used to generate electricity has more than doubled since the
first quarter of 1999 and has not been this high since the Gulf War in 1990.
Since January 2000, oil prices have increased 44% per barrel. Natural gas
prices also have risen unabated, climbing 77% since January 2000. With the
onset of winter, natural gas prices may increase further as demand for
heating fuel increases.

badeer-r/discussion_threads/220. | subject: Cal-ISO Participating Load Stakeholder Meeting (Sept. 20th) and V
content: The ISO will be hosting a Participating Load Stakeholder
meeting on September 20, 2000 at the ISO. The meeting is a broad
stakeholder meeting to help refine our load participation programs for 2001.
Much of the day will be committed to presentations and discussions on
lessons learned from 2000 and proposals for 2001, including technical
standards, contractual issues, and load management.
Some vendors have approached the ISO with systems that would
aggregate loads, give them an opportunity to curtail based on day ahead
energy prices, and provide the curtailment instructions and verifications.
This type of program may be ultimately sold to ESPs or IOUs. In order to
accelerate the testing of such systems the ISO may sponsor a pilot program
to test the system/approach with selected vendors. The pilot program will
test the concepts, the interfaces, and assist in bringing together vendors,
ESPs, SCs, and the IOUs as we move forward toward improving demand
responsiveness in our markets. We have reserved about 1 -2 hours in the
afternoon, to allow 3-4 vendors to present their approaches to the
stakeholder group.
In addition, we welcome you to visit a vendor fair that the
ISO is hosting on September 21, 2000. The ISO has experienced
considerable interest from the market place in such a vendor fair that would
include entities providing Data Processing Gateway technology for both
Generators and Loads in the Participating Ancillary Services Load Program.
This effort is being encouraged to develop multiple solutions pertaining to
installations of direct telemetry for Generators and Load providing
Ancillary Services to the ISO markets.
The agendas are attached for both events, including
directions and lodging information.
Please RSVP by September 13, 2000 to Sue Happ at

Writing to say hello. I returned to the states three
weeks ago and have been working at Camp Horno with the
1/1 since that time. It has been about three weeks.
The job is actually pretty good. I run the sick call
for the unit and do someother admin type things. Other
than that my time is pretty much my own. No call over
nifgt every third night at the hospital or some
asshole doctor chewing your ass about taking care of
patients. I still feel kind of out of the loop with
the other Marine officers but something tells me that
probably will not change. Likely, they look at me like
the friendly and tolerable neighborhood nerd who is
there to take care of the troops and give people light
duty chits. At least they leave me alone and give me a
chance to work out. The hills around Camp P are brutal
and unforgiving. I hope to be in good enough condition
in two-three more weeks to start running up the bigger
ones in the morning.
That is about it. Wanted to say hello and defend
and deflect any artillery shells you and rat are
lobbing against me behind my back!!!!

Subject: ISO To Participate in Super Peak Market
Folks,
Late Friday afternoon Ziad called me. The ISO Governing Board earlier
the same day turned down the ISO management's request to force SCs to
place 95% of their scheduled load in the DA market. That leaves the ISO
little choice but to venture into the energy markets to procure power to
cover their peak hours on hot days.
Terry gave Ziad the OK to proceed with placing both the APX and
California PX screens for this new product/matching-service. I am
working with the two vendors and the ISO to make this happen quickly.
We anticipate that the market will open on Tuesday, September 5, or
earlier.
Key people who you may need to contact:
ISO - Ziad Alaywan 916-351-2140 (Nancy Traweek and Jim McIntosh are
also in the loop)
PX - Ken Czarnecki 626-537-3123
PX - John Yurkanin 626-537-3124
APX - Denice Cazalet 408-517-2123
APX - Michael Heinrich 408-517-2159
Please feel free to contact me with your questions. Several of you have
not had the opportunity to attend the pre-design meetings we had at the
California PX and APX a few weeks ago, nor were you aware of the joint
WPTF/ISO meeting held last week. But in essence, what this
product/matching-service will allow you to do is post bids to sell, or
buy a 6-hour block of capacity at a firm energy price across the hours
of HE13 to HE18. You can bid at COB, Mead, PV, SP15 or NP15. You can
utilize either the CalPX or APX to post your bids, because the ISO will
be watching both screens. The block sizes are (supposed to be) 25MW.
The seller is responsible for arranging transmission to the delivery
point, and the buyer (e.g., ISO) is responsible for arranging
transmission service from the delivery point. The ISO will make its
purchase decisions for the day-of at or before 8:00 a.m. The ISO will
send out a general notice when it needs offers to sell on the super-peak
market. I expect that bids for either buy or sell will be able to be
posted at any time, 24 hours. The screens should allow parties to post
buy or sell bids at least 60 days forward of the trade day.
You are not limited to a price cap in these markets, but the ISO as a
buyer has the right to not purchase at prices above it's price cap.
I think WPTF members should be very proud that we were able to quickly
work together, and with the ISO to create this market. I have no doubt
the ISO will be offering bids to purchase starting Sept 5, and going
forward 60 days. However, who among you will be willing and able to
post bids to sell?

+Montana Power Sells Oil and Gas Business Unit
The Montana Power Co. has sold for $475million (US) its nonregulated oil and
gas business unit to PanCanadian Petroleum Limited of Calgary. The sale
includes subsidiaries that have interests in crude oil, natural gas and gas
liquids exploration, production and marketing in the U.S. and Canada.
Proceeds from the sale would be invested in growing Touch America, MPC's
national fiber-optic and wireless broadband telecommunications subsidiary.
The U.S. businesses have operations in northern Montana and in the D-J
(Denver-Julesburg) Basin north of Denver as well as minor properties in the
Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma, and Green River Basin, Wyoming. Fractionation
plants are at Cut Bank, MT, and Ft. Lupton, CO. The Canadian properties
reside mostly in southern and central Alberta and in southern Saskatchewan.

+Deutsche Telekom to Buy Powertel for $5.89bn
The Financial Times said that Deutsche Telekom is expanding in the U.S.
mobile phone market by acquiring Powertel, a local mobile operator in the
Southeast, for about $5.89 billion in shares. The deal comes just weeks
after DT moved into the U.S. mobile market through the $50 billion
acquisition of VoiceStream.
As that deal has not yet been completed, the latest transaction is
structured as an all-share acquisition of Powertel by Voicestream. The two
U.S. companies have also agreed that the deal will go ahead even if DT's
takeover of VoiceStream is not completed.
Communications Holdings, Inc., a unit of SCANA Corp., owns approximately
14.6 million fully diluted
common shares, or about a 27% equity interest, in Powertel, representing an
investment of $249 million.
