I'm a man trapped in a woman's body...
dev41
not really, this is Jeff Fawcett in Susan's office.
dev41
We're on a conference call with SoCalGas right now talking about the settlement document.
dev41
Would you guys pull-up the attached file, "Primary Rights 4-12.doc" and look it over, with particular reference to the section titled, "Scheduling Priority?"
dev41
I think we're OK here, but I don't want to agree to anything that we can't administer on our side of the meter or that just doesn't make sense.
dev41
We're down to the final telecon on this subject, and all changes need to be sent over to SoCalGas ASAP.
dev41
Will you take a quick look and send Susan a note saying thumbs up or down?
dev41
Thanks a bunch.
dev41
Rob, This is Jeff.
dev41
I'm with Susan in her office listening to the call.
dev41
Hey bud, LANDMINE!
dev41
Look at the new SoCalGas language respecting the Edison/SDG&E contract in Section 1.9.
dev41
Whadaythink?
dev41
Write back at this address!
dev41
Are you going to raise the issue?
dev41
Mark, Susan and I are online in her office if you need to shoot us a quick note.
dev41
Otherwise, blah, blah, blah......
dev41
Rob, Look at the conforming languange in the Appendix "A" last page, last paragraph.
dev41
You know that this language was negotiated by and between SoCalGas and Edison.
dev41
My main concern is that its very, very open ended...
dev41
almost a contingent liability for all settlement parties.
dev41
Jeff
dev41
pull out your settlement matrix and see if this SA agrees with that document.
dev41
I don't necessarily think it does.
dev41
Didn't we basically agree to disagree and/or deal with this issue outside the settlement process?
dev41
Are you saying that Edison can reserve capacity in the same manner as Core and 50% of noncore, but at the approx.
dev41
7.9 cent rate?
dev41
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE....
dev41
is this language saying that they can convert the VALUE of their capacity rights to a capacity contract at the point?
dev41
For example, if Edison has 200/d at 1 cent Wheeler access fee, they could conver it to approx.
dev41
25/d at the full 7.9 cent rate?
dev41
Let's get clarification!!!
dev41
Attached is a draft of the Declaration of Jeffery Fawcett.
dev41
If you have comments, please let me know.

dev41
you still there?
dev41
Quite good.
dev41
They definitely provide a chuckle.
dev41
This was one of the emails I told you about.
dev41
I'm available Tuesday also -- just let me know.
dev41
I'm there.
dev41
Vanessa, I checked with Bill, and the very unsatisfying answer to your question is that it totally depends on how Greg divided the community property with his ex.
dev41
He agreed with me that a will is a good idea in any case because you can arrange things so that you avoid legal proceedings and save a lot in taxes!
dev41
Our friend Tony Maluski does probate work: I believe his number is 713-228-7401.
dev41
He's a nice guy and I believe him to be competent; however, I think it is a good idea to shop around when you're doing something routine like a will or an uncontested divorce, so I'd advise calling several lawyers and see who you like best and who will give you the best deal.
dev41
If I can find some other names/numbers for you, I will.
dev41
Hope this helps!
dev41
Glen, I'm faxing you Transwestern's signature page and declaration.
dev41
An electronic version of the declaration is attached.
dev41
Glen: I think this will be fine.
dev41
Please add the word "Company" after "Transwestern Pipeline" on the list of parties.
dev41
Thanks; we sincerely appreciate your efforts on this settlement.
dev41

dev41
See the attached.
dev41
The proceeding certainly isn't over, but I think the parties have done a great job of submitting a settlement that the Commission will eventually approve, provided the parties present sufficient evidence to support such a decision.
dev41
(Unfortunately, we expect the settlement to be protested.) Direct testimony is due May 5.
dev41
To streamline things, the parties are going to consolidate efforts and have divided up the testimony by topic.
dev41
Of course Transwestern got the Hector Road issue.
dev41
I plan to put Mr. Fawcett on as a witness.
dev41
Our issue is not particularly controversial anymore, so I do not anticipate rigorous cross-examination; nevertheless, I will probably ask your assistance in preparing the witness for the hearing, which begins May 30.
dev41
Sorry for the delayed response, I got really busy Friday afternoon and didn't check my email before I left.
dev41
As you know, we recently did an east-to-east deal with USGT for 400,000 MMBtu/day with alternate rights to California at a higher rate.
dev41
SoCal filed a protest and I'm working on the response.
dev41
In part, they are alleging that TW is "attempting to exploit a weakness" in the GISB procedures to the detriment of existing customers.
dev41
For example, under TW's tariff (which they concede is GISB compliant), primary firm cannot bump alt.
dev41
firm in cycle 2.
dev41
SoCal says this means that any primary shipper attempting to deliever to an in-path alt.
dev41
point will be unable to re-nominate to its primary point once this "alternate" capacity [I assume they mean USGT's] is confirmed.
dev41
According to SoCal this will substantially limit shippers' flexibility, including the ability to use market area pooling.
dev41
Once gas is nominated thru a pool its subsequent movement to a delivery point is defined as an al.
dev41
delivery regardless of the rights of the capacity under which it moves.
dev41
Thus by manipulating the GISB cycle process, TW and USGT will bump firm shippers.
dev41
I could really use your help in responding to this argument.
dev41
(First of all, I'm not sure I even understand it!) If either of you have a few minutes today or tomorrow when we could get together, that would be great.
dev41
Also -- you two were the first to come to mind, but feel free to refer me to someone else in your group if you are swamped.
dev41
Please e-mail or call when you get a chance...
dev41
Thanks!

AA is now unsure about what we should say here (aam I).
dev41
Can you help?
dev41
Thanks.

Here's the answer to your question regarding 28.

The depth and complexity are overwhelming.

Just found out from Minal that you guys are going to Osteria D'Aldo for your shower.
dev41
I hope you have a wonderful time but I have to warn you that the wine selection is extensive and the food is fantastic (although not very low-cal).
dev41
I know you're in the final stretch of the bet, however this just might be cause for a loss.
dev41
Bon Appetit!
dev41
I was remiss in excluding y'all from the original distribution.
dev41
Please except my apologies.
dev41
I obviously didn't get up this morning to work-out...So I was wondering if you wanted to go for a run before Felicity tonight.
