Problem: BODY: PVRC'S WORKSHOP ON TIGHTNESS-BASED BOLTED FLANGE GASKET CONSTANTS AND DESIGN RULES February 6 & 7, 2002, Safety Harbor Florida REGISTER NOW AND WATCH FOR FUTURE ANNOUNCEMENTS ON PVRC'S WEBSITE AT WWW.FORENGINEERS.ORG Description You must attend this workshop to help keep your job knowledge useful by understanding the new design rules for bolted flanged joints! Are you ready for the New Tightness-Based Gasket constants and flange design changes that are about to replace the traditional constants and rules? This workshop will get you ready with focus on three critical areas that apply to both ASME Section VIII flanges and standard B16 Joints. The New Tightness-Based Rules Gasket Qualification and Selection Latest On Analysis and Assembly of Bolted Joints This Two-Day Workshop is a "must" for those needing advance information and know-how about applying the recently developed gasket constants and flange design rules. The tightness-based rules accommodate levels of permissible joint leakage, representing a new basis for design criteria and opening additional choices and decisions for users and designers. Attendees will gain detailed knowledge about several topics focussing on the new gasket constants and design rules and particularly on issues relating to leakage criteria and associated choices. The tightness concept is also extended to elevated temperature gasket qualification and selection, and know-how for efficient joint assembly and making zero leakage plant operation a realistic goal is presented. Several industry experts will lead workshop sessions including: Bob Mikitka, Jim Payne, Michel Derenne, Yves Birembaut, Ron winter, Jerry Waterland, Rod Mueller, Anita Bausman, Jim Frew Hildegarde Zeres, Warren Brown, Ed Hayman, Bill Koves, and David Reeves. Attendees will receive a bound collection of the presentations and guidelines and recommendations.

Problem: BODY: I was looking at past levels, and I thouhgt to share my findings with you. Highest levels as of the first week of April was in 1999 of 1,367 TCF. Yesterday's AGA showed our levels @ 2,294. In order to reach 1999's levels we ould need to withdraw about 103 BCF a week (2,294 less 1,367 divided vy the remaining 9 weeks until the first week of April). Also, 1999 had the highest levels for the third week of January, levels were 2,039. Year 2002 is 255 bcf ahead.

Problem: BODY: Hey Gerald! I finally got my computer back up. The name of the utility is Powder River Energy Corporation - A Touchstone Energy Cooperative (I don't know if you need that last part or not). The relationship is this: ECS is acting as the agent on behalf of Crestone Energy Ventures, LLC to purchase power and deliver shaft horsepower. We will be buying electricity strictly off of PRECORP's tariff. We will also be providing the cash for PRE to build transmission to the compressor site. Right now, the deal term is for 10 years, starting in May '02, but we will begin negotiations with them immediately. Last week I met with three people from PRECORP, just to begin the relationship, one of which was Clarence Moshier (Chief Operating Officer for PRECORP), who I spoke to again yesterday. He said that they would have no problem signing a CA with us. Basically, I just want to make sure that whatever we put in place with PRECORP cannot be relayed to Crestone by them. Anything else you need? Andrew
