Mike, I want to see the final costs before determining. My understanding is
that there is still significant expenses outstanding.

Subject: Peaker Fee

EE&CC has forwarded the peaker fee ($9.1 MM) invoice to ENA (see at bottom).
I have sent a return e-mail to Gavin Gaul and John Normand explaining that
final approval of this invoice will be from you. Amy and I are waiting for a
better breakdown of overhead charges on acceleration change orders. Once we
have the overhead issue framed out, I would then battle the fee, especially
on Wilton Center, on a packaged basis with the overhead charges.

As per the Wilton Center fee, I reviewed all of the e-mail rhetoric regarding
who is to blame for the massive construction cost overruns. EECC/NEPCO's
cupbability lies in their insistance from day one that Wilton Center could
and would be built non-union. It was only after ENA forced the decision in
late June 1999 to build the job union (to avoid air permit intervention) that
EECC/NEPCO even began to deal with how to build the job in a union
environment. Even at that point, EECC/NEPCO would not move off of building
the job on a cost reimbursable basis and did not properly consider other
alternatives such as fixed unit pricing (fixed price per unit quantity
installed). EECC/NEPCO claimed that they did not have enough time to
negotiate with the unionsor pursue other options. However, because of their
insistance to go non-union, they precluded the ability to negotiate until the
decision to go union was made. According to our labor experts, breaking off
union site negotiations and building non-union is worse than just going
non-union from the start. In any event, if you need more detail on this
subject prior to discussing the fee with Larry Izzo, please let me know and I
will summarize the key points.

I will continue to work with Amy Spoede to tie down the remaining cost and
overhead issues. If you need me to do anything else, please let me know.

Regards,


Mike Miller
