Please distribute the revised index to the above persons and to me. Thanks. Also, could you assist me in getting clean copies of the licenses from Laine Borgman. We redacted the copies she sent and need unredacted forms now.
Answer: Data Room Index
Rick -- here is the offer letter for Paul. I believe it has everything noted except if we are going to allow for a house hunting trip prior to his moving. I'm told this is usually done in conjunction with a business trip, so I'm not sure if that could be worked in for Paul.
Answer: Paul Hennemeyer
Guys, I am really glad that the report generations were working fine during the period when I was away, thanks to the efforts of Kim, Lindon and Angela. But I am so sad that you don't have to have me around anymore for your reports ... Hereby I'd like to give you an update on a few issues we fixed/fixing. a) Code has been added to show the Storage balance in the historical report instead of average b) Because OLAP cube interprets Null as 0 value, we saw monthly average to be 0 but actually should be Null, we've added code to detect Null value so that "NA" will be shown for monthly average rather than 0. c) Some pipeline (e.g. PGE) broadcast forward (future) flow, so in the end of the month, the latest month in Time dimension of the cube does not indicate the correct one. For instance, today is May. 31, the latest month in Time dimension is already June, which cause problems in historical report. It has been fixed. e) Central historical reports have been made fit to one page, and extra sheets on the interactive ones have been removed. Matt: In order for the above items to take effect please verify with the executable Kim give you and let us know so that we can use it to replace the one currently used for report generation. Another thing I talked with Matt was the Maximum Capacity column. I understand that you'd like to remove that column for reports which do not report this value, however it involves big structure change to take one column away. I am wondering if we can put "NA" or use some other wording such as "not reported" instead to save coding time and structure change. I need your feedback on this. One last item is that I checked the log for both daily and historical report and noticed that there are still quite some points their report setting are not quite right. Please take a look at the attached, if it is a report you are responsible, make sure the settings are right so we don't see error in the log. Thanks, I'll try to write short email next time.
Answer: Log and others
Jeff and Gerald, I wanted you both to have the following information: (i) the legal/regulatory research questions that the Upstream Storage Group (Paul Bieniawski, Miguel Vasquez & Eva Rainer) have posed to LeBoeuf Lamb (law firm) and Brown Williams (rate consultant) and (ii) the two Reports produced in response to such questions. The Reports were delivered to the Storage Group personnel Friday, July 27, 2001, and were forwarded to me by Bob Neustaedter last Friday, August 3, 2001. The cost of this work was borne jointly by Jean Mrha's Upstream Group and the Regulatory Affairs Group; Donna Fulton, Sarah Novosel, and Bob Neustaedter are the Regulatory/Governmental Affairs individuals involved in retaining Brown Williams and in recommending Larry Acker at LeBoeuf to conduct the legal/regulatory research. I reviewed the engagement letters on behalf of the Regulatory Affairs Department. The combined cost of these reports is about $100,000. I've done the best I can to be sure that the Upstream Storage Group does not "overlook" the Legal Department as it forges ahead into a transactional arena fraught with significant regulatory and accounting risks and traps. Gerald, as you have become involved with the development scenarios that involve a compression component, I think it would be wise to become familiar with the contents of both the LeBoeuf Lamb and Brown Williams Reports. If either of you would like to discuss the legal, regulatory or political implications of the attached, please feel free to give me a call. Steve
