Salt River Project, in an effort to bring resolution to the mainline and receipt point allocation issues pending in the above-captioned proceedings, is filing today (and serving hard copies of) the attached "Motion of SRP for Adoption of Strawman Alternative to March 28, 2000 Proposal of El Paso Natural Gas Company". Unlike any other proposal before it, it seeks to weave into one workable solution, the concerns raised by shippers in their initial and reply comments filed in the Order 637 proceeding, as well as address the 3 complaints. It is a share-the-pain proposal among CD - Converted FR - and El Paso. Under it, FR shippers would convert to CDs at levels reflecting actual usage over the past 5 years, weighted to the present. It assures each westward flowing firm shipper, based on the current physical mainline capacity (including L. 2000), 93.1%(winter) and 94.2% (summer) of their contractual entitlement. On a daily basis, all westward FT shippers are assured of receiving approximately 60% of their 93.1 and 94.2% allocation from the San Juan. FT-2 shippers would continue to be served off the top. This Strawman adopts the in-line pooling methodology set forth in SoCal Gas' initial comments. It includes North and South system segmentation rights, and narrowly defined demand charge credits for unprovided capacity as long as there is a shortfall. Provision is made to encourage turn-back of capacity and to have capacity under expired contracts dedicated by El Paso to meeting the approximately 7% shortfall. Provision is also made to treat each primary delivery point as a receipt point, and to give priority to Alternate Receipt- to- Primary Delivery point in the systemwide scheduling process, all intended to encourage a strong supplemental market to meet peak seasonal needs.

Dear All, The business units are operating on a lean G&A budget and cut costs whenever we can and making sure that we are efficient. Are there any initiative to do likewise for all corp functions? As an accountant in the business unit, we received corp allocations. The total for corp was more than $700MM. This, of course, excludes Enron Net Work, Enron Property, and Global Finance, which if we include those, the G&A to Enron could well be over $1Billion (not counting the business units G&A). The number just blew me away. I think we need to make sure all functions are needed and are run efficiently. We cannot say it's OK just because we can allocate to the business units because the business units may not receive benefits for these costs. We sure don't want Enron, as a whole, to be growing so fat and so fast that it will hurt our bottom line. I'm sorry if I'm out of line, but I really do care about Enron and am very proud to be its employee. Thank you for your time.

The Merced Board resolution is unclear. You should add a rep that the Merced Irrigation District has the authority to enter into the deal. Sara

Here is another matrix of TW "Current Shipper" rates & surcharges. This one is not posted on the web. I don't know whether anyone needs/uses it, anymore, but I have been keeping it up. There is a new tab for each change in Current Shipper Rates. The latest is "200111" Elizabeth - I forgot to send this to you this morning. Jeanette - I don't recall whether I sent this along with the other TW files.
