(Steve: We may get asked to run a few more illustrative portfolios for the group.) I'll report back on what happens at the meeting on Friday.
dev33
If there are any questions, etc., just let me know.
dev33
Best, Jeff

Eve Elsesser AES--Aaron Thomas (retail) Munis Munis and Florio were not on the call today, but I suspect both will be OK with our proposal.
dev33
As we discussed, attached is a brief description of ENA's and EES' key goals in California and the actions underway to achieve them.
dev33
We'll update the status report weekly.
dev33
We hope that the weekly update will serve as a useful internal communication tool to keep folks abreast of activities and developments in CA.
dev33
It can also serve as a tool to help identify the need to modify our goals and/or actions as circumstances change.
dev33
Comments on the form and/or substance of the document and how we can make it more useful are welcome.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
Joseph will set up the call and distribute to the list.
dev33
paul.
dev33
please leave the number on paul's voicemail since he's traveling.
dev33
thanks a billion.
dev33
NRDC, TURN, Edison, Sempra, CLECA (large industrial), AES (formerly NEV), Munis, PX, CMA, Enron.
dev33
Though TURN and Munis, while not opposed, are posturing at this point as "noncommittal."
dev33
Hmmmm.
dev33
The world is no longer safe, not even for we relics.
dev33
Well, I'l glad to know that at least one adult is involved.
dev33
yes, and we can discuss storage further if you like.
dev33
Being a true blue American, I support expansion.
dev33
If you get a free minute, can you give me a call to discuss.
dev33
My short answer is--no problem, looks good.
dev33
I'll get you my comments ASAP.
dev33
Has Shelley Corman seen it?
dev33
Kahn's secretary has left messages that he's "very tied up" and continues to try to contact me.
dev33
Suggests to me that they may be planning something and he's reluctant to contact folks.
dev33
I'll poke around.
dev33
I thought our stock would go UP when an announcement about Skilling was made.
dev33
I guess this means you'll be going to D.C. with Lay.
dev33
I was thinking that you might be able to bring a modicum of legitimacy to it....
dev33
I was thinking that I should probably get another case of coastal.
dev33
1) What do you think?
dev33
2) Could you have one delivered?
dev33
I could pick it up.
dev33
Going to be an ugly four years....
dev33
FYI.
dev33
I'm editing now and have several proposed edits.
dev33
Should be to you within 20 minutes.
dev33
Recognizing the time constraints you face, I've tried to 1) clear up a few inaccuracies and 2) massage some of the sharper language without taking a chainsaw to the otherwise good job.
dev33
I'm thinking we need two cases.
dev33
you got it.
dev33
My pleasure.
dev33
Thanks for the opportunity.
dev33
Good luck.
dev33
Between the US Supreme Court and the energy crisis, D.C. must be very interesting right about now.
dev33
Word on the street is that Davis, Hoecker and Richardson are meeting in D.C. today.
dev33
That consistent with what your hearing?
dev33
I'm on the EPSA/IEP call but doing a million things simultaneously.
dev33
Lynn's taking a big role on the call.
dev33
I think that you should check in with her afterwards to get a briefing since I'll be getting off for another call in the next 5 minutes.
dev33
please send the call-in number around for 1:30 call when you get.
dev33
kaufman's going to be on the call.
dev33
thanks, buddy.
dev33
Mark: Did you have wind of Jason's story on Edison calling for an end to AB 1890?
dev33
His spin on the story was good one---Edison got everything it wanted (out of 1890) and now it wants out of the contract.
dev33
The story seems worthy of a response, particularly since Jason's the reporter.
dev33
Even the Chair of FERC recognizes that going backwards is not the answer.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
I'm available at 8 am (do while you're driving?) and will make my schedule flexible in the afternoon.
dev33
That was painful.
dev33
I feel so useless.
dev33
Thanks so much for taking charge of this and doing such a fantastic job.
dev33
Are you in close contact with Martin and Doug?
dev33
Jeannie: Apologies.
dev33
Though I'm sure it doesn't seem like it, I'm on the job.
dev33
I'll try to get the numbers and I'll read the piece now.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
I was told that Lynch and Duque released press releases today saying that the Commission does not intend to let the utilities to go bankrupt.
dev33
Haven't been able to find any press releases on the CPUC website, however.
dev33
Professor Aceves: Attached are a word and an excel file.
dev33
Both are formatted for easy print out.
dev33
Note that the excel file has two work sheets: "balance sheet" and "income statement."
dev33
I'd be happy to provide you with a hard copy, too, if you would prefer a hard copy.
dev33
Just let me know.
dev33
Thanks for a great course.
dev33
All the best, Jeff
dev33
Might have perhaps been simpler if Bill "Al Haig" Richardson had announced at the press conference yesterday that he was ordering his energy company, BPA, to stop "withholding" and send power to California.
dev33
Can you believe this?
dev33
Ralph: No one else had any problems with it.
dev33
It's a simply Excel file that should show graphs with 3 "portfolio scenarios."
dev33
Would you like me to fax to you, or bring copies to tomorrow's meeting?
dev33
Sue, Sandi, Paul: Let's try to discuss and collect any comments we have this afternoon at our weekly staff meeting.
dev33
apologies.
dev33
could you resend me the id and password to get into EOL.
dev33
thanks a bunch.
dev33
Professor Aceves: Could you let me know that you received the final exam files that I sent last nite?
dev33
I'll sleep easier knowing that you've received them and that they're not floating around somewhere in cyberspace.
dev33
Thanks very much.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
Sorry.
dev33
Been a bit crazy around here.
dev33
Thanks for the note, and thank you for doing such a good job at driving this process.
dev33
My thoughts on your proposal (and these are very preliminary): 1) politicians may not be willing to go as high as 25% for fear of being accused of a "utility bailout"--maybe 10-15%?
dev33
though utility solvency may force their hands.
dev33
2) TURN will go ape-#%#$ if we make the "roll off" retroactive to October.
dev33
3) I'm willing to allow utilities to collect TRA undercollections, but feel that customers and utilities (not me) need to figure out precisely what that number is.
dev33
Look forward to getting closure tomorrow, though I'm very concerned that we've lost Edison, given Bryson's public calls to return to 1950.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
Actually, please keep doing this, but send them only to Miyung Buster and ask that they be included in the group of articles sent out to everyone twice a day.
