Bob: per your request, here is the rundown on Patti's activities for August and beyond.
1.
We calculated the amount we made on her experience in handling El Paso's transport to be close to $1 million/ month.
2.
I could not even begin to calculate the amount made just by having her here.
If Patti had just quit with everyone else gone, the amount lost on El Paso would be huge, including loss of credibility on our part with our customers.
The exact amount would be close to $1 million/month I would think.
3.
The spreads out West have been huge this summer.
We were able to take advantage of this because Patti was here to do the scheduling during a very difficult time.
4.
When I was out for the entire month of August, Patti was not only holding down a desk that usually three people handle, but was also filling in on management duties.
5.
Patti worked 14 weeks in a row, including weekends, without taking a day off.
She worked at least 12 hours a day during this time, handling several different jobs at a time.
6.
The exact value of what Patti did is hard to determine.
I would estimate that her presence here and stepping in to help out was woth about $5 million to the desk.

Guys: currently the system is designed to match upstreams and downstreams for buy/sells in contract exchange, and the scheduler would then recreate these paths in Unify.
In my opinion this does not guarantee data integrity between the systems.
Carrie and I have scheduled a meeting for 1:30 pm today in 21c2 to discuss.
Please feel free to attend and give your opinions.

I think we are on the right track from our meeting yesterday.
I talked to Patti today and she is confirming the way we want to do things from a users perspective.
My thought is that we get a good, general, working model as to how the information will flow, then take it back to our groups and go over different scenarios within each region, such as Opal Plant, Socal, etc.
We can see how the information will flow and see what we need to tinker with.
I also have a few questions we need to think about at some point, and I did not want to forget them.
1.
When we make a change to an existing upstream/downstream contract, how will we notify the counterparties that a change has occurred.
2.
Should we lock out our customer's at some time so they can't make changes at a late time?
We could do the rest over the phone.
3.
On EDI pipes, we could conceivably make changes up to 11:45 am, but it would affect customers whose noms are due at 11:30.
I thought these were just questions we might want to think about.
I'm sure there are a lot of others.
Thanks.

I spoke with Mary Mervene this morning and the llenders declined to convene this week although we will arrange an ECA call for Thursday or Friday.
Mary has requested that we do the following: 1) Send the Lenders and S&W the new budget info and the revised change order summary.
2) Revise the model to reflect the new costs and the new timeline.
3) S&W will review the model and then we will repeat the exercise of calculating fuel oil and Furnas penalty exposures.
4) Finalize sponsor support elements.
This can all occur fairly quickly except I am concerned because we have not resolved the budget with Shell, and theoretically the lenders can take 30 days to review the model and budget when submitted.
We also need to discuss strategy because we may want to delete the contingency from the budget since the lenders are going to want the sponsors to commit to some general contingency supporty anyway.

Bob: here is our status from this mornings outage event.
NWPL: we were able to manually input 80% of next days nominations.
Since we were not able to EDI, we will have to manually input all successive nominations for the day, as well as all actual scheduled volumes in Unify.
We were also only able to get in our 80% of nominations with NWPL's help, as they extended the nomination deadline for us.
The other 20% of next day business will be nominated as an intra-day.
El Paso: basically the same as NWPL.. We were able to manually get in 100% of nominations, but only because El Paso kept their system open an extra hour for us.
Let me know if you need aything else.
Thanks.

| Guess What |
The discussions went well on the ECA this morning and there are no issues of any great significance left, other than Shell's sponsor buyout proposal.
We have one turn of the document to do but we are in good shape here (I guess that is to say we are perfectly positioned to offer millions and millions in sponsor support).
I want to take just a little more time on the model to make sure everything we send will tie, but we will get it to them on Monday for sure.

John, I jjust reviewed the interconnection memo from Claudia.
Once again it is weak on the situation and our remedies.
Can you help Jose try to pull this together.
| Interconnection |
Here is what we have concluded based on discussions this morning: 1) We believe that Furnas has agreed to contract and pay for 300 MW on oil to meet regulatory requirements concerning required capacity and reserve margin.
We do not believe that they intend for us to be dispatrched above 220 MW.
(Do we have any document which could substantiate this?)
2) Although dispatch on a merit order basis would suggest that EPE runs full time (with 300 MW available), there are practical constraints in the transmission system which will prohibit this from actually occuring.
[ Please describe these constraints using some official sounding jargon but minimal detail and in particular indicate what is involved to de-bottleneck and how long this will take.
I presume that Furnas is solely responsible for the corrective measures.]
3) Based on our analysis, the optimal operating approach would be to generate 220MW with one turbine and 91 MW with the other for a total of 311 if dipatched above 220 MW.
If we can prove that 1) & 2) are correct or convince the lenders that they are, then I think we can suggest that fuel oil exposure is negligibe if gas is ready by April 01.
We will have to see how it looks when we add the Sue Garvin flex months.
Therefore, a merit order analysis is only necessary if i) our supposition about Furnas' motivations are incorrect and/or ii) the transmission problem is cleared.
If this happens it would be nice to be able to predict reduced fuel utilization due to a) reduced dispatch during daily off-peak hours or seasonal impacts, b) due to scheduled outages, and c) due to managing our availabilty in such a way as to reduce fuel consumption operating losses.
Any data you can provide will be helpful.
Have I successfully connected the dots here?
If you have previously sent these materials to Felipe or Tracee please simply grumble to yourself if you have to do an extra e-mail to me.
Remember, you don't have to be nice to a short timer unless you need them to get something done.

Jose, I think the supplemental info you have provided is outstanding and helpful to the lenders in understanding the overall picture and the history.
However, its focus is not the central concern of the lenders at this point as I understand it.
The lenders and their counsel are concerned specifically about third party liability meaning, I believe, lawsuits or claims from parties who did not receive power because Cuiaba failed to generate.
Therefore, I think the questions which Tozzinni needs to address are along the lines of: 1) If EPE is required to sign the agreements by ANEEl, What is the extent of damages that could be claimed in the context of such agreements?
2) Could any consequential damages be assessed?
3) Could EPE excuse itself from the legal proceedings on the basis of the bid documents, the PPA or other agreements with Furnas, Electronote or Eletrabras?
4) How would the economic equilibrium process work in the case of a judgement which was payable by EPE?
Could the process be expedited to avert a liquidity crisis?
5) Could EPE be denied access to the grid as a result of failure to cover a spot market price assessed by the MAE stemming from an unscheduled outage?
6) Similarly, could EPE incur penalties or be denied transmission if they failed to contribute in accordance with the shared liability provisions of the agreements?
7) Will we need to sign the agreements for other reasons (such as access to back-up power) which would be excluded from the protections by Furnas under the PPA?
9) Could Furnas deny or delay reimbursement if the amount is not recoverable by them or while they are awaiting word on a claims recoverability?
10) A question for insurance - Does our Business Interuption insurance protect us in any of these instances?
(Note: the US$20MM Sponsor liquidity facility provides some comfort to the lenders) John, stop me if you think I am off track.
If you have other questions which you think need to be addressed please continue ....

As you may be aware, I am conducting an in-house seminar on compliance with labor and employment laws and the practice of good employee relations.
This 4 hour, interactive program is tailored to Enron's culture and ETS-specific issues.
Stan Horton and the ETS Division Heads have mandated attendance for all Managers and above, and for those persons who have supervisory responsibility.
The main goals of this session are to help management avoid employment-related litigation, maintain a trouble-free workplace, and maximize employee productivity.
In order to accomplish these goals, it is imperative to understand the intricate connection between sound management practices and legal requirements.
Some of the topics covered are: maintaining a discrimination and harassment free workplace; the hiring process; compensation issues; performance management; lawful terminations; and all related topics that are necessary to effectively control the risks associated with managing a workforce.
There are three sessions open in October -- the 3rd, 17th, and 31st.
They run from 8:00 to Noon.

Rod wanted me to point out to you that NNG IT would be spending an additional $4.9 of capital in 2001 with approximately $4.2 spent in Nov.
This is reflected on the 2001 Capital by month schedules I sent you.
Stan had approved $9.0, but IT was able to negotiate their cost down to the $4.9.
The dollars will be spent on purchasing the SAN (Storage Area Network) equipment.
This $4.9 was not in the 2001 capital budget nor reflected in any other quarterly or current estimates.

Pipeline integrity and safety have risen to new levels of public concern.
In the aftermath of the incidents at Bellingham, Washington and Carlsbad, New Mexico new pipeline safety regulations and legislation will require increased focus on pipeline integrity programs.
As a proactive approach to address these concerns, ETS Operations is establishing a Pipeline Integrity Program Management Group.
This group will be responsible for pipeline integrity issues for EOTT and ETS and financial reporting of EOTT's environmental and remediation projects.
The group will include the following functions: corrosion, pipeline safety and pipeline integrity.
I am pleased to announce that Mike Nelson will relocate to Houston to lead this new initiative, as Vice President Pipeline Integrity Program Management.
Reporting directly to Mike are Max Brown and Dave Johnson.
The establishment of this new function, along with Mike's move, has given us the opportunity to rotate key staff, allowing us to achieve a broader knowledge base for the future of ETS Operations.
I am pleased to announce the following additional changes: Rick Craig - Vice President Southeast Operations Dan Pribble - Vice President Southwest Operations Randy Rice - Senior Director North Operations Rick Craig and Dan Pribble will continue to office in Houston.
Randy will transfer to the Omaha office.
Don Hawkins will assume new responsibility for controls & electrical, measurement and the Clifton Machine Shop as Vice President Technical Services.
He will also continue to handle facility audits, quality management, and business development initiatives.
John Shafer, Vice President Environmental, Health & Safety, will continue to be responsible for environmental compliance and remediation, and health and safety.
John Keller, Vice President Planning & Power Services, will assume responsibility for the Beaver Machine Shop in addition to his current responsibilities.

Tracy, Below are the rough cost estimates to apply drag reducing agent to the LaPlata to Bloomfield line.
Facility modifications $1,665,000 Cleaning & application $165,000 Re-application every 6 months $165,000 The facility modifications include a launcher at LaPlata, receiver at Bloomfield and a filter separator at the El Paso Blanco delivery.
The cleaning & application and re-applications costs include cleaning pig runs with methanol and surfactant as well costs for the actual DRA application.
For analyzing sensitivities, all costs are +/- 30%.
The re-application time period is also uncertain.
You may want to look at the economics of re-apply as often as every three months and as infrequently as every 12 months.
Please let me know of anything else you need.

Enron Transportation Services has 2115 outstanding invoices totaling nearly $8.5 million, which need coding and/or approval in the iPayit system.
Although a company-wide task force is working to improve the entire process, ETS employees need to do their part to ensure accurate and timely payment to our vendors.
If you purchase items that generate an invoice (including cell phones, pagers, etc.)
or if you are responsible for coding and/or approving invoices, after you receive your e-mail notification, please log on to iPayit and take the appropriate action to process the invoice (s) .
Because the invoice (s) cannot be processed for payment while it is in your iPayit inbox, it's important to code/approve invoices within five (5) days of e-mail notification.
I expect ETS to stay current on payment of ALL vendor invoices.
I have approved invoices in the system and it's very to use.
We will continue to monitor the status of our accounts payable, and we expect to see significant improvement by the end of September.
If you need assistance processing outstanding invoices, please contact Carolyn Centilli at 713-345-8496.
Password questions should be directed to the ISC help desk, 713-345-4727.

We have to send out a partnership budget on Monday, October 1 and would like to get a good handle on which of these charges will be eliminated or reduced substantially at the Friday meeting.
Since we are unsure of the benefit that many of these charges provide to us, it is doubtful that the partnership would approve all of these increases so we don't want to send out a budget that has them in it.
It is our understanding that you want our questions directed to your group so that you can address corporate planning yourselves.

Tracy and James, Elaine and Phil thought it would be nice to include this summary page in the plan review package for Stan's review next week.
I think Rod mentioned that Stan has set a target for Phil of 5.0MM for 2002.
Please advise if this is still valid because Phil personally has not heard that from Stan.
The numbers that we have in Adaytum match the $4.4 MM net contribution.
The remaining $0.6MM are salary offsets on NNG.
42P does not have employees and they use NNG employees.
When they do that, NNg charges the salaries of the employees for the applicable # of hours to 42P.
Therefore, 42P covers expenses that NNG would have to bear otherwise.
Phil feels that the $0.6MM of salaries offsets should be counted toward the 5.0 target since it's a benefit that 42P brings to NNG.
James and I talked about this on the phone.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Thanks!

Jerry, I received a copy of an email you addressed to Bill Brown regarding a conversation you had with Karen Choyce about who is responsible for Unclaimed Property Reporting to the States.
The Corporate Secretary Division centralized this function a few years ago and I am the person responsible for making sure that Enron Corp. and its subsidiaries stay in compliance.
I think Karen meant that it is the responsibility of each business unit to identify the unclaimed checks, move the funds to the Escheat Liability Account, communicate this information to the Corporate Secretary's Division, and reconcile the general ledger as it pertains to their business unit.
It is my responsibility to prepare the reports and remit the funds to the applicable state before the deadline.
Please forward any correspondence you receive from the States regarding this matter (including notices and forms) to my attention for further handling.
Thank you for your cooperation.

After the budget session, I thought I needed to make sure one more process is started and in order.
Insurance costs have risen and there may be a disconnect between expectations and actual results.
I would like to think that we can develop the proper insurance program for Wessex and other Operating Companies in a short time.
I think we will need to determine what levels of insurance and deductibles are needed and then what is the right information to send out in the request for quotes.
This is so that everyone is dealing with the same information.
I would argue that we should be able to price the deal in the market and then give the group program a right to match the deal.
I think the next step is yours, to tell us what levels of insurance and deductibles are needed and then follow that up with the information to go out in the RFP.
However, it will be necessary to establish some ground rules.
In the event the Operating Company (OC) wishes to secure a "market price" for their insurance: 1.
The OC may nominate a broker to secure pricing.
The Broker is subject to CRM's (Corporate Risk Management working for EGS-Enron Global Services) approval.
Such approval will not be unreasonably withheld.
An appeal of an adverse decision from CRM to the CEO of EGS is possible.
2.
CRM will specify and the operating company will supply to CRM, the necessary underwriting information.
3.
The OC will specify the types of insurance and coverages, limits, and deductibles they require for their business.
4.
CRM will provide the underwriting data and coverage specifications to the competing brokers.
5.
The competing brokers will be directed by and report to CRM during the bid process and thereafter, if the broker is appointed.
6.
CRM will receive the proposals from the brokers, evaluate and report the results, with recommendations, to the operating company and the appropriate senior manager within Enron.
7.
OC will elect the program and price they prefer and CRM will have the right to provide such coverage or direct the appropriate broker in the placement of a separate program.
8.
For locations outside the U.S. the OC may request using their nominated broker for servicing their day to day insurance needs, provided the broker becomes a "correspondent" within the established Enron Broker Network.
This will ensure continued co-ordination of the insurance programs.
I think a progam like this can get everyone closer to a satisfactory conclusion in the process.
Please let me know your thoughts on the proposed program, because obviously we need to get started ASAP.

Tracy, I spoke with Fred and we have a resource available to assists with the remaining ETS modeling and development.
Dymetrix can be here this Wednesday and will be dedicated to ETS through the end of the year.
He will be responsible for the completion of the O&M model for home office.
He will also be responsible for the Marketing initiative.
I spoke to Ben Humann about Omaha's resource needs.
They will require a resource for two weeks starting November 12th to implement the O&M contributor model.
If they should decide to move forward with development of a full financial system, they will require an additional six weeks of time at a minimum.
We will scope their financial system requirements during the initial two weeks to better determine what the actual recourse requirements will be.
As we discussed this morning I will be dedicated to ETS through the end of January.
I will address the remain issues with Operations.
I address data transfer issues between Adaytum and the Data Warehouse.
I will assist with and manage all of the above initiatives.
Please feel free to contact me if you have and questions or concerns.

Mark, In response to your voicemail this morning, this is EGAS 4th Qtr per the 2nd CE.
It has been adjusted to pull out the items that have been transferred out of EGAS since the 2nd CE ( Azurix International and South America Merchant ) and the transfer in of European Assets and the Middle East.
This does NOT include EPower which I understand will be transferred from Europe to EGAS in the 4th Qtr.
We are currently working on our 3rd CE and will send you those numbers when we are done.

On tuesday of this week after EOTT's staff meeting, I was made aware of a potential environmental estimate problem (too big).
I am looking at ways of potentially dealing with the problem so that Lawrence will feel comfortable not booking a reserve in the 3rd qtr, which may have consequences on the plans we have underway to recapitalize the entity.
This means coming up with an answer very quickly.
There are a number of potential alternatives and I am sure there are more than I will attempt to lay out here.
1) We could simply make a contribution to EOTT for the sole purpose of environmental cleanup, and if unused will be returned.
Seems like an expense item, but doable.
2) We could provide an insurance policy to EOTT to provide for environmental expenses in excess of the existing policy, for a fee.
Better expense treatment (we get to manage the reserve) and appears to cover the EOTT issue.
Because this is an affiliated deal, I guess it would have to go through the audit committee.
Potentially the captive could be used.
3) Provide an accounting answer that might give EOTT a one-time gain to offset the one time reserve set-up.
i.e., there is a least an argument that the recapitalization proposed will result in the extinguishment of a portion of the debt on the books represented by the API's.
Since we are getting a conversion of less than a dollar for dollar deal, this should be doable.
For Lawrence: Jim Bouillion has indicated that the insurance proposal may have merit, and so I will need some input from you regarding the coverage that exists now and what we would want going forward.
If you want us to talk directly with Susan, we will.
I am thinking that you are getting a quote for increasing the cap on the existing policy and that we could give you the same deal, or maybe even slightly better, to satisfy the audit committee.
I am obviously looking for any help that I can get here, so if there any more ideas I would like to hear them.
If you have questions, feel free to ask.
Stan is aware of what we are discussing.
1) and 3) were his requests to review.

Hello, following up our PGE Budget presentation I am forwarding you the following information.
Jessica - the 2002 Capital Slide has been revised to be consistent with the NNG disclosure schedule.
The decommissioning forecast is up by $1.6 MM, however since this is funded by the decommissioning trust it should not be an issue.
Tracy - Do you have a time and agenda set for the Nov. 1 dry run of the budget presentation?
I may be sitting in for Piro so please keep me posted as to what the plan is.
Rod - you asked for some detail on our IT capital expenditures.
The file IT_Teresa includes the requested detail.
Note that in our UE-115 ratecase we were authorized to expend up to $96.8 MM for the 2000-2002 budget years.
This is a balancing account, such that if we don't expend the money we have to refund it to customers.
As an fyi - I've pasted in below the language from our UE-115 Stipulation on IT costs.
Q.
What is the basis for the stipulation relating to issue S-45, CIS / IT Disallowance?
A.
After a Staff review of new IT systems and their associated capital costs, Staff has determined PGE's capital costs for new IT systems to be prudent.
As a result, the Parties agreed to full recovery of PGE's IT investments, subject to a Staff audit.
PGE will place into base rates 100% of the 2002 revenue requirement related to the 2000, 2001, and 2002 capital additions for the CIS/IT capital items listed below.
The 2002 revenue requirement included in base rates will be trued-up to the actual revenue requirement for the CIS/IT capital costs.
OPUC Staff will audit PGE's actual capital expenditures for the CIS/IT capital items listed below.
1.
Customer information system.
2.
Enterprise resources planning (ERP) system.
3.
Network meter reading (NMR) backbone and data store (excluding the meters).
4.
Miscellaneous capitalized information technology costs.
Some of the forecasted 2000-2002 capital additions may be delayed until 2003.
Delayed costs can also be recovered, subject to the same Staff audit procedures and standards.
Only those costs that are reasonable and prudent will be authorized for inclusion in the "actual" revenue requirement calculation.
Accordingly, customers will receive a refund for any costs PGE does not expend or costs the OPUC finds imprudent.

Hello All, We will begin our soccer season with the first practice scheduled for this Wed (Aug 15) at 5:30 pm at the West U microsoccer fields (adjacent to West U Elementary School).
This week we will have one practice only.
Starting next week (Aug 20) there will be a Monday practice with the West U trainers at 5:30 (same fields).
This trainer practice is optional - however we found that the kids really get a lot out of these trainer practices and they are probably better for ball skills than what we will do in coaches practice.
We will discuss other issues on Wed.
I'm looking forward to a fun season.

Below is an update on the Adaytum Consolidated Model: 1) BU Basic Cubes' Training => last week (10/22 - 10/26), two training sessions were held - EEOS and EGAS.
Provided in the training sessions were User Documentation, which included screen prints of Manager screens, as well as a word document with additional user instructions and screen shots of the data cubes.
Also included were the Adaytum excel add-in reports (both summary and financial statements).
Additional training sessions are scheduled for the next two weeks.
If you have not done so already, please let me know your availability.
The sessions lasts approximately 4 hours, and is done "on-site".
NOTE: Most Enron computers have a minimum of 128K of RAM.
In order for faster processing of data and accessing the cubes, we are recommending that everyone upgrade to an additional 128K of RAM (totalling 256K RAM).
The cost of this upgrade is a nominal amount (under $25), and is well worth the investment.
To check the amount of memory on your machine, please do the following commands: Start | Settings | Control Panel | System (Look under Computer for the amount of RAM you have).
2) Next Adaytum User Group Meeting => we will not have a meeting this week due to accounting close.
However, I will schedule a meeting for next week (time and place to be determined).
Potential topics for discussion are: (a) 2002 Plan information input into Adaytum (timeline), (b) Training update, and (c) Integration of actual / plan data between Adaytum and the Data Warehouse.
Please forward to me any additional topic you may want to discuss.
Please call me if you have any comments or other items to discuss.

Hello Tracy, I wanted to share some conversations that I've had with both Demetrics and Hoang this week related to the project.
On of the biggest issue seems to be with resources.
I know that you guys have been quite busy with your planning process but it has been very difficult to get the required information or time from the resources that are committed to the project.
This is due to the fact that they currently have a heavy workload and cannot dedicate the time necessary for the project.
It is having an impact on the timeline.
The home office model could be a lot further along if some of the required information was delivered as requested.
Also, I am also getting a sense that there is a lack of ownership with regards to the Adaytum application.
It is important that the users have a comfort level with the application otherwise it will become very difficult to transition it when the project is over.
We need to think about who will administer the system once it is in full production.
This individual should be identified and running the administration duties as soon as possible.
My fear is that without proper ownership of the application and a dedicated administrator (at least in the short run), it will be very difficult to transition the roles.
We've had some technical issues with the production and development environment.
Although these issues have been resolved, it has had an impact on the timeline.
There are times that the definition for the model is not clearly articulated and it has resulted in the redesign of the model.
Much time has been spent on gathering business process information from various people which has caused a delay in the model development.
I hope that we can constructively talk through these issues tomorrow and produce solutions that will rectify the situation, mitigate the risks, and result in a successful implementation.
Our call is scheduled for 1:30 tomorrow but I can be available earlier if you would like to discuss this.

Tracy: Sorry to bother you with this one again - in 1999 and 2000, what were the revenues and costs associated with the base gas sales - the footnote disclosure indicates $53 million and $34 million in sales but not the cost.
In addition, going forward, how much of the 2001 and 2002 TG&S expense is solely related to this transaction (i.e.
expenses that would not be incurred but for this transaction)?

Tracy, Over the past few months, Rositza has been researching where the rebates related to Operations have been booked because Phil had earmarked them specifically to assist us in achieving our stretch target.
The rebates are not hitting Operations cost centers, and for numerous reasons from Accounting, they cannot be reclassified into the Operations hierarchies.
Since the rebates received are outside of Operations and Phil should get credit for them, I am reducing our stretch for the upcoming forecast for the rebates actually recorded through September and those expected for Q4.
This is a total of $1.0MM.
If you need documentation, I can forward Rositza's research to you.
Let me know if you have questions.
The "ETS" forecast we will submit for Operations will only include what will show up in that column for actuals at year end.
It includes our IBIT estimate for co.'s 1202, 184, 42P, 1195.
Any other amounts we have carried there in previous forecasts will be moved to the pipeline where we expect to see the actuals.
This forecast should represent our best estimate of where we will actually end up for the year (as of today!).
We continue to monitor spending closely, and will adjust next month if necessary.
Thanks, Elaine

Tracy: Sounds like there is lots going on today.

At Third Current Estimate, we added a full year forecast for MGT for Operations and added the MGT and Border amounts together on the Border page in the ETS Functional Income Statement as instructed.
We are trying to confirm what we should be reflecting.
Jason is being instructed that ETS should not pick up any actuals for January through May, and that we should use Actuals received from El Paso for June forward, and not our numbers.
The El Paso amounts for June through September are close to what we have, but not exact.
Please advise us as to what we should be reflecting and we will revise our schedules.
We did not pick up MGT at all until 3rd CE, so I'm OK with restating 3rd CE to reflect the appropriate amounts for MGT and rolling forward from there.
Thanks, Elaine

Tracy: Attached is the revised 4th Qtr Forecast Summary.
Also, attached is the expense analysis I did.
Please note, I did not include UAF.
I have compared our actual numbers with James' spreadsheet and Steve Kleb's earnings model.
Once I made that adjustment for the $244 reserve in August on James' spreadsheet, we are all in agreement that the YTD actuals for TW commercial is $162.7.
I have also verified that number with Robert Miller and he agrees that is the number reflected on the Income Statement.
The $244 reserve reversal was made in September and reflected in the transport margins revenues.
