Subject: MA PBR Comments

Hi Guys,

I'm forwarding comments we filed recently with a few other marketers in MA
regarding PBR. These were prepared on the fly, as we only found out about
the deadline for comments the day before they were due. Sorry not to have
floated these by you all before they were filed, but I don't think there
should be anything controversial in here. (They were borrowed pretty much in
their entirety from comments Statoil had filed in another jurisdiction).

One note, the MA restructuring statute requires the DTE to implement PBR for
distribution utilities and provides fairly detailed instruction on how it
should be structured. So the question here was not whether PBR is good, but
how should it be implemented within the context of the MA statute.

Please let me know i f you have any comments or concerns. Also, I will talk
with you before we file anything else in this proceeding.

Sue
