Hey: we meeting tonite? | dev33 |
can you BELIEVE this bloody election? | dev33 |
Steve: Here are the deals and offers. | dev33 |
The desk is concerned about two things: 1) that we not make the specific of the deals/offers public. | dev33 |
They're fine with general statements like "the offers are below the price cap." | dev33 |
2) they have good relationships with the IOUs and the munis and are starting to do a lot of deal; as such, they expressed concern about any comments that might agitate them and make them disinclined to transact with us (sound familiar)? | dev33 |
If there's anything else you need, for if you have any questions about this material. | dev33 |
Don't hesitate. | dev33 |
Good luck. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
Talked to Bill Reed. | dev33 |
In his comments, he will say: FERC should be more prescriptive. | dev33 |
Can't wait for a new board, made of new people, to act. | dev33 |
FERC needs to be more assertive--I told him we're all for leadership from FERC. | dev33 |
They will strongly support the end of the buy-sell requirement and express concern about the CPUC's micromanagement of utility purchases--I told him we'd have a similar message on that issue. | dev33 |
FERC should "PJM" the California market--I told him we would differ significantly on that issue, i.e., PJM-ing generaly, and "merging" the PX and the ISO. | dev33 |
He said his comments on "refunds" would be "narrow" and would point out that the FERC staff report says there is evidence of specific "bad actors" and that those bad actors should be required to give refunds--I told him that our position hasn't changed on retroactive ratemaking. | dev33 |
I explained our position on getting more information to the market sooner. | dev33 |
He said that it sounds like a good idea. | dev33 |
I told him about our message on price caps. | dev33 |
He said that he would stress that price caps ought to be a temporary "fix," and should be removed just as soon as the market is "functional." | dev33 |
Steve: I told him he should search you out prior to the start of the panel tomorrow and talk more. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff Best, Jeff | dev33 |
We can meet at my meager apartment if you like. | dev33 |
Around 7? | dev33 |
Sounds good. | dev33 |
We SF folks will do 1-4; East Bay folks have 5-7. | dev33 |
i have no parking. | dev33 |
let's meet at your place. | dev33 |
kim and i can carpool and take the "legal" spot. | dev33 |
what's the address? | dev33 |
Market Surveillance Committee report is smallest file, oldest doc (August), and probably the best message from our prespective, particularly the solutions. | dev33 |
PX report is the biggest file and the newest (11.1.00). | dev33 |
Check email re: talked to Bill Reed; info on deals in CA; ISO/PX docs. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
OK, here's the list: Mondavi's always a classic, and up the hill is La Famiglia (Mondavi brand that's a sweet view, great place to have a picnic lunch, and it has some neat Hess collection. Sterling. Jarvis--truly amazing (and ostentatious--wait till Beth sees the woman's restroom!) But you must call NOW to try to get in. Cordonui (sparkling wine) also has a very lovely view. Stag's Leap. Up valley (Calistoga way) is Chateau Montellana (sp?), which has really wonderful wine. Finally, if you would like, I might be able to tap into a connection and get you in at Opus (Mondavi--maybe one of the best wines, dare I say, anywhere). Please let me know if you'd like to do Opus, and I'll get on it pronto. And if you want to do Jarvis, call now! Hess Collection. Opus. Sterling. Mondavi. Jarvis (if you can get in). | dev33 |
Greetings Folks: As you know, the Gas Accord is coming to an end and PG&E's trying to figure out where to go from here. | dev33 |
I would argue that what happens with PG&E is equally, if not more, important as what happens with SoCal. | dev33 |
As you also know, we're faced with a retrograde PUC that, by all accounts, longs for the "halcyon days" of command-and-control regulation. | dev33 |
As such, I think it would be very useful, and cost-effective, to pull together the effective coalition we established in the SoCalGas settlement. | dev33 |
In that coalition, some of us contributed dollars and some contributed experts. | dev33 |
I think we should employ that approach again. | dev33 |
I asked Mike Day, who I think most agree, did a pretty good job of representing us in the SoCal settlement, to make a proposal for representing us in the PG&E case. | dev33 |
Mike's proposal is attached. | dev33 |
Finally, if there's anyone else you think we ought to include in our coalition, please let me know. | dev33 |
Let me know what you think. | dev33 |
Hope all is well with you and yours. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff Jeff: Goodin, MacBride is willing and able to represent a coalition of end-users, marketers, and other interested parties in the PG&E Gas Accord II proceeding in much the same fashion that it represented multiple parties in the GRI proceeding in both PG&E and SoCalGas settlements. | dev33 |
We would propose to split our monthly billings for legal fees and expenses equally between the parties who agree to join such a coalition. | dev33 |
In exchange for joining the coalition, parties would receive frequent updates on the status of settlement talks and other proceedings, participate in conference calls to reach decisions on coalition positions, and have the ability to call on the GMSRD lawyers on the case in order to answer specific questions or provide any other useful information. | dev33 |
I envision using several attorneys for various portions of the proceeding, including using associates and paralegals for research, and other GMSRD partners with gas experience for preparation of pleadings, etc. However, most of the face to face negotiating, including working with Commissioners and advisors as necessary, would be done by myself as lead partner on the case. | dev33 |
I have attached a fee schedule for the GMSRD attorneys who would likely have some involvement in the case. | dev33 |
Because the majority of this work will be done in 2001, these rates reflect our new 2001 hourly fees. | dev33 |
However, in an effort to encourage participation in the coalition, and because several potential members of the coalition are past or existing clients, we propose to reduce our standard fees with a 15% discount for all participants in the coalition. | dev33 |
With this discount, these would be the lowest fees available to any of our clients in the coming year. | dev33 |
I have not made any type of estimate of legal expenses for this proceeding, as it is exceedingly difficult to forecast how protracted the proceedings will be. | dev33 |
Once we begin participating in the proceeding and we collectively decide how best to proceed in terms of actual participation in the case, we can provide frequent budget reports and make more useful budgetary estimates. | dev33 |
If you require some type of estimation sooner than that, please let me know. | dev33 |
Thank you for your interest in using our services. | dev33 |
Please contact me directly at (415) 765-8408 if you have any questions. | dev33 |
