Bryan, Are you still having a great time?
dev41
33,812
So what is Bali like?
dev41
33,813
The only images I can summon are Gauguin's paintings, but weren't those of Tahiti?
dev41
33,814
Things are pretty good here.
dev41
33,815
Lots of Christmas parties, lots of Christmas cheer, etc. Not a whole lot going on at the office, for a change.
dev41
33,816
Really, though, I think I would much rather be in Bali.
dev41
33,817
Take care.

John Buchanan and I discussed TW's transfer of gas from the PG&E/Topock receipt/delivery point to the PG&E/Topock Park N' Ride point to implement TW's use of PG&E's Market Center service.
dev41
33,819
My understanding is that physically the points are one and the same, and that the transaction will simply be a paper transfer.
dev41
33,820
Since a contract is required in our system as a formality to implement the transfer, the rate TW will "charge" itself for the transfer is $0.
dev41
33,821
This message is to confirm that I see no legal or regulatory problems with the above scenario.
dev41
33,822
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to e-mail or call me (x30596).
dev41
33,823
Hey girl!
dev41
33,824
Thanks for the book and the CD.
dev41
33,825
I lazed around the house enjoying both yesterday morning.
dev41
33,826
After we played tennis, Bill took me to Berryhill for fish tacos (al fresco) and later that evening we went to yet another Christmas party, where I drank champagne (but luckily not too much).
dev41
33,827
So it was a good birthday.
dev41
33,828
Have a good day!
dev41
33,829
See the attached (one shows redlining, the other does not) and let me know if you have further questions.
dev41
33,830
no comments this month
dev41
33,831
Thanks.
dev41
33,832
Lindy and I are going to look at whether any changes will need to be made to the pro forma sheets we've filed, and will get back to you.
dev41
33,833
I made a couple of minor changes.
dev41
33,834
Here are plain and redlined versions (I turned the tracker off on the plain one).
dev41
33,835
Also, be sure to fill in the contract #.
dev41
33,836
Did Stan make the call to FERC, I wonder.
dev41
33,837
Drew -- see MK's comments.
dev41
33,838
I'm trying to come up with some new language to address her concerns.
dev41
33,839
Oops, wrong one -- I meant MK had comments on Red Cedar.
dev41
33,840
This one for Duke is OK.
dev41
33,841
Drew, here's an excerpt from a FERC letter order accepting for filing a nonconforming agreement filed by Dynegy Midstream...sounds a little bit like what the TW guys are trying to do, if I understand the concept of volumetric rates correctly.
dev41
33,842
Left a message for my friend at DMP but he (like everyone else) is out 'til next year.
dev41
33,843
But since there were no subsequent orders issued in the docket I assume there were no problems with the filing.
dev41
33,844
I'm still leaning towards recommending the $0 demand/ $0.02 commodity + file as nego.
dev41
33,845
rate approach.
dev41
33,846
If Steve Harris is OK with the idea of doing a deal that requires filing, I will draft something and send it your way.
dev41
33,847
The referenced negotiated transaction provides for a transportation service under DMP's Rate Schedule FTS.
dev41
33,848
Rather than paying a reservation charge, the negotiated agreement specifies that KGS will pay a volumetric rate.
dev41
33,849
The volumetric rate will equal DMP's maximum interruptible transportation service rate as set forth in DMP's tariff.
dev41
33,850
.
dev41
33,851
.The contract also (a) specifies five Dth/d as KGS' maximum daily reservation quantity, (b) lists KGS' primary receipt as Meter # 9999999 and (c) identifies five primary delivery points for KGS.
dev41
33,852
.
dev41
33,853
.
dev41
33,854
Upon filing Docket No. RP99-240-000, DMP stated that it agreed to the above negotiated rate so that KGS could serve small residential customers on DMP's system under a firm rate schedule.
dev41
33,855
Drew, I've attached my proposed changes to the Red Cedar contract.
dev41
33,856
Our beloved Min/Max Language became a bit problematic, as you can see.
dev41
33,857
I'd welcome your comments on this.
dev41
33,858
see attached.
dev41
33,859
Wow, you struck a nerve with this one!
dev41
33,860
My grandmother (Mema) is an absolute nightmare when around family, but really sweet to everyone else!
dev41
33,861
Everyone tells me how wonderful and nice she is (she meets lots of people I know on her commute to her office downtown), and I just have to keep my mouth shut because no one would believe some of the things she says & does.
dev41
33,862
Example: over Christmas she kept trying to tell my 8-months pregnant sister all kinds of delivery-room horror stories!
dev41
33,863
I finally had to yell at her to get her to shut up.
dev41
33,864
Maybe you remember Mema; she calls every so often and bullies receptionists and secretaries into tracking me down instead of just leaving a message.
dev41
33,865
Of course, everyone but me thinks it is really cute.
dev41
33,866
Hope your holiday was really great!
dev41
33,867
Since the 311 belt/suspenders approach didn't quite fit, I've had to try to convince Mr. Hertzberg that he ought to rely on the NGA Sec.
dev41
33,868
1 exemption for gatherers (Frank Kelly and Frazier concur with us on this, by the way).
dev41
33,869
He is not convinced yet, although he is unable to cite any authority for his proposition that being a shipper on TW would subject a gathering company to FERC jurisdiction.
dev41
33,870
I pointed out that Agave, the owner and operator of an extensive gathering system that interconnects with TW's system, has for many years been a shipper on TW.
dev41
33,871
Also, Lindy has found that Red Cedar already has a long-term transportation contract on another interstate system, Transcolorado, so if Hertzberg's theory is right they are going to jail anyway!
dev41
33,872
Red Cedar also seems to be hung up on our requirement that shippers have title to the gas they ship.
dev41
33,873
At this point Lorraine and I believe they might just be looking for any excuse to get out of the deal.
dev41
33,874
If anything interesting happens I'll let you know.
dev41
33,875
Anyway, Ann isn't coming on Friday because she can't stand it that everyone is a couple, so she is going instead with her ex boyfriend to a dinner party given by some people she doesn't even know.
dev41
33,876
Although I am trying very hard to be understanding, I'm not doing a very good job.
dev41
33,877
When I was in her situation, I seem to remember enjoying my best friends' company whether I had a date or not!
dev41
33,878
But that's just me.
dev41
33,879
Hope you are still having tanning weather in Austin.
dev41
33,880
We certainly are here.
dev41
33,881
If you feel you are not getting enough color for your trip to Cabo, I'll come before you leave and help you with the Clinique Tan-In-A-Tube!
dev41
33,882
(You will still have to wear sunscreen).
dev41
33,883
What are your trip dates again?
dev41
33,884
Have a good day!
dev41
33,885
Love,
dev41
33,886
I'm attaching an article that I just received about the CPUC's and Indicated Shippers' protests of the recent ENA deal on El Paso.
dev41
33,887
I have a call in to Drew Fossum to talk about formulating a formal response, and I will keep you in that loop in case you get any inquiries.
dev41
33,888
(My initial, unofficial reaction is that with the marketing affiliate rules and other safeguards in place, the fact that ENA and Transwestern have the same parent company should make no difference to the FERC.) Until further notice, I would avoid any communication with ENA on these issues.
dev41
33,889
If you have any questions, please e-mail or call me (x30596).
dev41
33,890
Attached is Shelley Corman's response to Jeff Dasovich, based on conversations with Drew and me.
dev41
33,891
Accordingly, I would advise you not to participate in the conference call Jeff is setting up for tomorrow.
dev41
33,892
Questions -- give me a call.
dev41
33,893
Steve, for your information, the case in which the Commission denied ECT's petition for a limited waiver of the shipper must have title rule appears at 84 FERC P 61,222.
dev41
33,894
Hi Mum!
dev41
33,895
Ann and I saw "Mr. Ripley" and I lay awake last night wondering how else the main character could have dealt with his dilemma on the boat!
dev41
33,896
I think I need to go to the movies more often; perhaps it will help me avoid this blurring of film and reality.
dev41
33,897
My tendency is to really get involved when I see them on the big screen!
dev41
33,898
Might be going to San Francisco next week.
dev41
33,899
I'd really like to go.
dev41
33,900
We'll see.
dev41
33,901
Probably I will come to Austin on Saturday but I've not heard from the landscaper yet.
dev41
33,902
I doubt they will be working on the weekend though.
dev41
33,903
Hope you're having pretty weather as we have in Houston today.
dev41
33,904
Love,
dev41
33,905
Our consulting agreement with IGS for services related to the CPUC proceeding expired 12/31/99 but can be continued by mutual agreement of the parties.
dev41
33,906
Given the upcoming proceedings, I'd recommend that we act on this sooner rather than later...let me know and I'll draft a brief letter to Mark Baldwin.
dev41
33,907
I've reviewed the IGS market development agreement pursuant to your request.
dev41
33,908
It expires 2/29/00.
dev41
33,909
The agreement requires the parties to meet 90 days prior to that date for the purpose of discussing an extension but does not obligate us to agree to any such extension.
dev41
33,910
As you know, I have a conflict tomorrow at 10, but would be happy to provide any other information you need for the meeting.
