Have you drafted any talking points yet? I'm working on what I'll focus on
for the conference at Berkeley next Monday and would love to crib from your
comments.

Best,
Jeff

Subject: FERC's November 9 Conference

FERC has not yet issued on the list of panel participants for the November 9
conference, but we will circulate it as soon as it is posted on FERC's web
site. I did speak to Julie Simon at EPSA, however, and she told me that
based on calls she has received all day from EPSA members, that it looks like
FERC is mixing up the panels so that they will not be put together by market
participant class. Julie has heard that each panel will have approximately
6 people, and each person will be given 5 minutes to make a presentation.
Each panel will have 90 minutes total, so FERC is probably planning on having
a significant dialogue with each panel after formal comments are made.

Also, Scott Miller called Julie today and told her that FERC is feeling
somewhat beleaguered by industry response to the California order. FERC
feels that they issued a good order for marketers and generators, and they
would like to hear positive responses from market participants at the meeting
on Thursday and in the written comments on November 22. We of course will be
expected to state our positions, but Scott asked that we (EPSA members)
temper our comments and recognize and praise FERC for the bold action it took
in the order (on things like governance, buy/sell requirement, etc.) in
addition to raising our concerns about the price mitigation measures.

Please let me know if you have any questions. We'll let you know as soon as
we get the order for the November 9 meeting.
