Subject: "Sharpen Your Netiquette".

Body: Netiquette. What's that? Well, in case you didn't know, Netiquette is the proper use of e-mail. Because we all spend a large portion of our day communicating with customers, vendors and co-workers via e-mail, here are some tips to help you polish your e-mail skills and send you on your way to Netiquette success. Short & Sweet Keep your messages concise and to the point. Cluless In . . . The subject line can be a couple of words or a short phrase that gives the reader a hint to the contents of your message. ARE YOU ANGRY? The use of UPPERCASE text is the equivalent of yelling in the world of e-mail. Lower the case and, thus, your e-mail voice. Are You Still Angry!!!?? Watch out for excessive punctuation like exclamation points. If something is important, put it in words, not exclamation points. We Can Become Too Attached Think of your reader and, whenever possible, put your message in the body of the e-mail rather than in an attachment. Does Everyone Need To Know? Be careful when you send replies to "all recipients" of an e-mail. Ask yourself if everyone really needs to see your response. If not, you'll be using up disk space, cluttering inboxes and slowing the mail servers unnecessarily. Spellcheck Is Your Friend Like printed documents, e-mail deserves a review to assure that grammar and spelling are correct. Privacy On The Net? There is no such thing as private e-mail. Never send anything by e-mail that you would not want to see on the front page of tomorrow's newspaper. There are no security guarantees with electronic mail. Eyes Only In Cyberspace Avoid sending any confidential or sensitive information via e-mail. Remember, it's very easy for someone else to forward messages you considered confidential. Even messages sent as "Confidential" can be copied. Quick Tips -- Refine Your Skills

Subject: "TVA".

Body: Ben Jacoby told me that the state of Tenn. (through an Energy Policy Committee) has implemented a moratorium on the state reviewing air permits and siting on new IPPs. Apparently TVA is exempt from the moratorium. He heard that TVA has been telling the govenor's office that all the new IPPs coming on line in Tenn. are putting TVA's transmission resource at jeopardy. If this is being said, it is incorrect because, per TVA's "procedures", TVA conducts an interconnection study before connection, so TVA actually approves the interconnection, plus TVA would not let the IPP purchase transmission (or would cut its transmission). Enron's proposed plant in Tenn. already has the air permit, so Ben is not as concerned about Enron's plants. However, this type of behavior could show that TVA may be simply keeping IPPs off its system (even though presumably they would pay it revenue -- same problems that we continue to have with VIUs). Could this be helpful in messaging somehow to DOE, etc. that TVA should be in an RTO?

Subject: "CHANGE TO THE ADVISORY STATEMENTS BEGINNING 8/15/2001".

Body: On 8/15/2001 Market Participants will have (2) new billing codes in their advisory statements. (1) Code 238, which currently exists in the hrly advisory statement, but up until now it has been null. Code 238 will now be 'Hrly LRR DAM Contract Bal Pmnt $'. This will reflect dollars paid to a generator for DAM Contract Balancing that is Out-of-Merit for LRR. Code 239 will reflect dollars paid to a generator for DAM Contract Balancing and is not Out-of-Merit for LRR. The sum (238+239)=313, and 313 can be found under the "Power Supplier" section of the daily advisory statement. (2) Code 314, this is a new addition that did not exist on the daily csv file before. Code 314 is 'ELR DAM Contract Balancing Payment $'. There is not an hrly code for ELR DAM Contract Balancing because it is a daily settlement, not an hrly settlement. The funds that will be collected from the LSE's to pay for Code 313, and Code 314 will be collected through the residual adjustment codes 611 (hrly) and 813 (daily). Version 14 of the data dictionary will reflect these new billing codes, and this will be found on the NYISO website under Grid Accounting & Settlements, just like the previous versions. A new billing code mapping will also be available, and will be version 7, and can also be found under the Grid Accounting & Settlements section on the NYISO website.

Subject: "Tenaska IV".

Body:
Sandi, Do you have a complete contract for the Apache purchase under the Tenaska IV deal? Apache is billing us a rate that is $.11 below the commodity rate stated on page 22 in the original contract. In the documents I have, I can't find a reason for the adjustment. I may be missing an amendment or something. I thought that you may have a complete set of documents and could help me out. Daren
