Here is an email: Paul Bieniawski's phone number is 713-345-8641. Go ahead and give him a call just as a courtesy to let him what you guys are looking at at Bushton and let him know I put you up to it. If he has some useful off the cuff insights, great. If not, that's fine also. I don't expect you to send him any material or get him deeply involved--just give him a heads up. DF

Here is an email: We have not decided "to prevent any regulated utility from completing any financial transactions" online. If we have already satisfactorily concluded the necessary due diligence with respect to a particular utility, they will be approved. It is only with respect to those utilities which have not yet been researched that we are withholding approval. The due diligence required involves asking the utility for certain information concerning their organization and regulatory situation, hiring local counsel in the relevant state and having research done into the laws and regulations in place there and into any public utility commission orders respecting the particular utility in question, and on occasion requesting an opinion letter from the utility's counsel. We usually begin that process only when a trader believes there is a likelihood of a sufficient volume of trading with the utility to justify the time and expense. FYI, the due diligence process has in the past revealed circumstances which prevented the utility from trading derivatives or required actions to authorize such trading which had not been taken. A recent count showed about 10 executed master agreements and another 30 to 40 in one stage or another of the due diligence/negotiation process. Louise Kitchen
