The Commission just voted out one half of the "Bilas Alternate." The decision that got voted out included Bilas' DWR-based language stating that the PUC 1) would not second-guess DWR purchases and 2) would pass through DWR costs to customers. However, in a move led by Commissioner Carl Wood, the decision removed the Bilas language on Direct Access. The decision therefore did NOT include the Bilas language staying any Commission action on implementing the Direct Access prohibition. Carl Wood called including Direct Access "the height of arrogance." The decision was voted out 3-2, with the 2 remaining Republicans dissenting. That said, the Commission has no proposal before it implementing the prohibition, and there was no talk at the meeting of implementing the prohibition any time soon. Best,

Dear Ken, I hope you 'visit' with the Governor was as fruitful as mine. we are very favorably supported in our development of a Regional Energy Efficiency Initiative ... an approach to defining and delivering sustainable energy efficiency. (not conservation!) There is an opportunity to discuss a way in which Enron could perhaps become involved in a very significant set of new developments within the sphere of influence in which I operate. If you wish to 'look into' this .. let me know. I believe such an endeavor during this difficult time might well stand you in good stead .. and its a way to enter the end use services business. I look forward to getting to Aspen for the AI conference. John - EX. COMM. REPORT DEC 2000.doc
