Group, We are starting to see some market changes as we transition into the winter= months. First: With EPE we will start seeing a severe morning ramp. We will have to carefu= lly manage the units to prevent "swinging" them and increasing the chance o= f a unit outage. As the EPE loads plummet off-peak, we should consult the u= nit commitment, and depending on market conditions look to take units off-l= ine and/ or put units on manual and buy energy back. Recently we have sold = energy from EPE at a loss rather than putting costly gas turbines on manual= (Newman 1, 2 and 3), reducing them, and buying that energy less expensivel= y in the market. Our relationship with EPE is at a critical stage, they hav= e a new vice-president and will be hiring new management to lead their mark= eting group. We would like to be a part of EPE's marketing effort going for= ward, but need to continue to prove that our level of service cannot be mat= ched either in-house or by other marketers. I look to each member of the gr= oup to be a part of this effort and to work closely to run the EPE grid as = efficiently as possible. Second: The morning ramp will soon be upon us in the Northwest. It will become very= difficult to get energy in the Nortwest for HE 6 through HE 10. We should = look for congestion possibly on the COI and the DC. Also, as lights and hea= ters come on in the evening, there should be another jump in load at HE 18 = through HE 20. Enron Calgary will also be looking for energy these hours. B= e sure to take this load movement into consideration if you lock a price in= with ECC. Finally: We will have a meeting on TUESDAY--November 6th at 4:30 in the afternoon--(=

Pets In the Office It's A Growing Trend In the dog-eat-dog world of business, there's a growing trend at some companies. Workers are bringing their pets to the office. Chip Paucek, who produces educational videos and television programs, has been taking his golden retriever, Hoss, to work for the last five years. Paucek and Hoss visited The Early Show and talked with Co-Anchor Jane Clayson. The dog has became the office mascot, says Paucek. "He brings a lot of emotion and people love it. He's very relaxed." But Paucek, as co-president of his company, has the freedom to bring Hoss to the office if he wishes. Not everybody can bring their pet to work. "A lot of it depends on the dog," says Paucek, who explains that Hoss is not a rowdy dog. "He just hangs out," explains Paucek. "He's easy to get along with." Hoss has free rein at the office. When Paucek is away on trips, "My wife brings him in and drops him off at the office," Paucek says. While there are plenty of positives to pets in the workplace, there are also many legal issues to consider. John Challenger, CEO of an international placement company, agrees that the trend of bringing pets to the work place is really growing. "More and more companies in this tight labor market are trying to make their working place employee-friendly and many are looking at bringing pets into the workplace," says Challenger He points out, however, that there are serious issues that employers and employees need to explore before they adopt a pets-in-the-office policy. "One of the things that the companies must do, before they jump into a policy like that, is take a poll of their employees and find out what they're thinking. If you have certain employees that don't feel comfortable with pets, you might want to rethink the policy." There are liability questions as well. For example, the company might be liable if a dog or cat bites or scratches another employee. "The company ought to talk with their attorneys before they put this kind of policy in effect," says Challenger. "The employee needs to understand that if their dog bites someone or the cat scratches someone, it can't be the company's fault." Allergies are a major deterrent to bringing cats to the office. "Many people are allergic to cat hair. You have to think, as an employer, will you put them in a certain part of your space. What about people who are afraid of animals? Many don't feel comfortable with them around. Just how many do you want? Do you want cats and dogs and what about birds? What about the noise of birds?" Paucek admits that when there's more than one pet in the office, "It gets chaotic." In 1997, the American Animal Hospital Association surveyed 1,225 pet owners. They found that: 21% of those surveyed had taken their pets to work 76% feel guilty about leaving their pets at home while they're on the job 33% said they leave a TV or radio on for their animals If a company decides to allow pets in the office, they should: poll employees before they let the pets come provide a written policy about pets and list which pets are not welcome in the office establish an off-limits-to-pets area make sure employees bring documents proving pets are vaccinated bar noisy, destructive, or messy animals from the office tell employees to keep control of their animals at all times If many employees want to bring their pets to the office, the company should make a rotating schedule. When the pets-in-the-office policy does work, it's great. Paucek says when he and Hoss arrive at work, "I get off the elevator. He goes one way and I go the other. He says hello to the employees. He has his own web page."

Here is an email: Brant: Just a reminder that we need to discuss matters relating to Occidental (their proposed change to the MAC language) and Chautauqua Airlines. Alos, with respect to Aquila/Utilicorp, apparently they cannot have all of the online paperwork completed until next Tuesday. They submitted a PA today but the guy that needs to authorize the sub-user accounts is not in the office until Tuesday. The current plan would be for them to do that on Tuesday and then to make the switch from Aquila to Utilicorp effective next Wednesday. I'll keep you posted but we still have not declared the Utilicorp ISDA effective. Carol
