Eric, I think it would be good for you to join us for this meeting. We're
following up on some concerns that arose during the Conoco case about
inadequate compliance with Enron document retention policies. I'm not sure
that this subject is within your turf down there, but your historical
experience may be useful.

Great!! Here's my question--what responsibility does the legal department
have to publicize/enforce the Enron document retention policy in other
departments? If it isn't our responsibility, whose is it? I'm concerned
based on our experience in the Conoco case that most departments
(occasionally including law) simply ignore the policy.

I think this subject matter is so interesting that I'm asking the regulatory,
marketing, and market services departments to send a designated
representative to attend. Mary Kay and Julia--please have someone on your
staff whose responsibility includes managing your inventory of paper join us
in the VCRs on Oct 10 at 1:30. We'll be reviewing the Enron document
retention policies and how to improve our compliance within NN and TW.
Julia, for your group Rick or someone in his group would probably be best.
MKM, I'm not sure who is the best person from your group. Steve, I suspect
you are the right guy from marketing mostly because you've got more
experience in the regulatory/legal discovery area than most of your
colleagues down there. Sorry. If each of the Marketing, Mkt Services, and
Regulatory representatives could bring what they believe is the current
document retention policy/schedule for your group, that would be helpful.
Thanks. DF

Subject: Document Retention discussion

Yes, it's only one week away! A riveting and thought-provoking discussion on
document retention! (Drew's staff meeting on October 10th) Please submit
your questions early so that Colleen and I can provide a thorough answer at
the meeting.


(Seriously, if there's anything specific you would like to know or if you
have any questions about document retention, let Colleen or me know. Thanks!)
