QUESTION: On October 29, 2001, the commission issues an order instituting a rulemaking to establish ratemaking mechanisms to enable SCE, PG&E and SDG&E to resume purchasing electric energy, capacity ,ancillary services and related hedging instrument to full their obligation to serve their customers once DWR's authority to purchase on their behalf ends (December 31, 2001). At that point, the UDCs, not DWR, will have to pick up anything not covered by retained generation and the DWR contracts. The Commission will also address proposals on how renewable resources should be included in the mix of generation serving the state. The OIR will have a significant impact on procurement practices in the state on a going forward basis. The ruling states that if you are interested in being on the service list for this proceeding, a letter must be sent to the docket office stating that fact within 15 days (by next Monday). Bottom line is do you want me to continue to monitor (and perhaps get active) in this proceeding. Please let me know by the end of the week so that I can send in the required letter. Jeanne Bennett

Then, I stayed up until 5am Sunday night/Monday morning doing laundry and packing. Monday, Jason and Nolan went to school and all seemed well while I ran around doing last minute errands. That evening, Wayne drove us to Wuerzburg so that we would only be 1 1/2 hours from the airport in Frankfurt rather than 3 1/2 hours. The boys both seemed fine and played outside for an hour or so when we arrived. We were staying with friends. During baths, Wayne noticed a rash on Jason but didn't think anything of it. But, as we were putting him in bed, Jason seemed hot. We took his temp (over 102) and gave him motrin. Then, since the main military hospital is in Wuerzburg, we decided to take him in to get him started on some medicine if needed. Before he left, we looked in his throat--this time his tonsils were almost

QUESTION: I will be out of the office for most of the day on Friday. My dad is experiecing serious health problems, and he will be in Houston on Friday for an appointment with a specialist that I have arranged. I will be going to the doctor's appointment with my dad. Depending upon waiting room time, I may not be in the office for the 1:30 meeting in EB3305 to discuss the findings from the recent internal audit projects. I have asked Shona Wilson to attend in my place. Please continue with the meeting, as I know that this is a difficult meeting to schedule. I will get an update from Shona when I get back to the office.
