I have made the following adjustment to our EPMI sales to EES on 3/1 at SP-15. 534313 - existing fixed price forward sale - volumes have been reduced by 18 mw per hour 559314 - new index sale added and backdated (2/28) to reflect 18 mw off peak hours 559316 - new index sale added and backdate (2/28) to reflect 18 mw on peak hours Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this change. At the end of last month Short Term California handed responsibility of Dow Jones index sales over to the Short Term West Services desk; unfortunately the exact date of change-over was miscommunicated, and the index sale was not entered for 3/1. However, the total MWh of EPMI's sale to EES should not change for 3/1. Also, you should see the new volumes reflected in the EES daily volumes worksheet which I will send later this afternoon. Thanks for your patience,
Answer: EES Deal Changes 3/1
Bill; Mike Cashell (MPC's Transmission Mgr.) just phoned me concerned, beca= use MPC's Real-Time group requested EPMI purchase energy for them under our= existing Energy Imbalance structure, and was notified by our Real-Time gro= up that due to the newly implemented FERC price cap, we were have difficult= y securing any resources. Just to clarify things, we are settling MPC's Ch= oice customers Energy Imbalance position, and PP&L Montana has the right to= any length resulting from MPC's "domestic" load Energy Imbalance. In othe= r words MPC is settling two separate Energy Imbalance accounts, so during t= he hour they may be turning energy back to PP&L Montana, while at the same = time finding themselves short for the Choice loads. During the recent bull= ish pricing conditions, Choice customer were leaving themselves long, as of= late, MPC is experiencing the Choice customers doing the opposite, positio= ning themselves short. The net result is that MPC will most likely be expe= cting us to fill a short position from this point on, so I'd really like to= see what we can do to honor their requests, mindful of the favorable posit= ion we've enjoyed over the last several months. Let me know if you'd like t= o discuss this further, or better yet if you've got a workable solution to = the problem. In the meantime, thanks again to you and your staff for the o= utstanding performance thus far in dealing with MPC. John

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT: ANNUAL MEETING AND ELECTION OF 2002 WENH BOARD Dear Members: The annual meeting of the Women's Energy Network of Houston is normally held at the November or December luncheon meeting. This year, however, WENH held two out-of-the-ordinary events in November and December that precluded the annual meeting from being held in those months. WENH's bylaws provide that "if the December meeting is not held, the annual meeting shall be held at the next WENH meeting." Accordingly, the WENH Board of Directors has scheduled the annual meeting to be held at our January luncheon meeting at Brennan's Restaurant, 3300 Smith St., on January 9, 2002, at 12:00 p.m. At the annual meeting, the WENH membership in attendance will elect the Officers and Directors of the WENH Board of Directors for 2002. No WENH member may vote by proxy. Following careful deliberation of all nominated candidates, the Nominating Committee, composed of Leesa Foster, President; Robin Dyer, Immediate Past President; Lisa Craig, Vice President and retiring Board member; Meg Healy, WENH member; and Karyl Lawson, WEHN member (with Denise Cassata, WENH member, as a substitute at the Nominating Committee's final meeting) hereby announces its recommended slate for the upcoming elections at the annual meeting, as follows: 2002 WENH Board Nominations POSITION NOMINATION President Tammy Naron Vice President Tammy Dowe Secretary Mary Wilson Treasurer Tammy Norman Assistant Treasurer Suzy Romoser Program Director Mary Ann Reynolds Career Director Cynthia Thomson Public Relations Director Robin Dyer Communications Director Nancy Fitzgerald Industry Relations Director Nancy Sauer Special Events Director Carol McCutcheon Directors-at-Large Melinda Pharms Kay Henry We look forward to seeing you at the annual meeting at our January luncheon.
