As a follow up to my email from yesterday, responses to SoCalEd's Petition
are due on Tuesday, January 2. Dan Watkiss has spoken to the FERC attorneys who will be answering the Petition, and he is comfortable that FERC will be able to adequately defend FERC against the Petition. Additionally, Sue Mara will contact IEP to see if they will be responding to the Petition, and I have a call in to EPSA to see if they will be responding. Therefore, because the responses seem to be adequately covered, and to keep Enron's name out of the headlines, we do not plan on responding separately to the Petition. If you have any comments or questions, please let us know.

Circuit to direct FERC to establish and order "just and reasonable cost-based rates" for sales in the California ISO and PX markets. SoCal requests that the Court act by January 5. SoCal argues that its lenders have said that unless FERC acts immediately to "restore creditor confidence" in SoCal's ability to repay its loans, that SoCal will not be able to access additional funding, so that by mid-January SoCal will be unable to buy electricity, resulting in rolling blackouts to its customers. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like a faxed copy of the petition. Sarah
