How much time did you say you will have???? If you can get through a tenth
of that in 5 minutes, you are much quicker than I! Also, in an amazing coincidence, your outline looks very similar to MKM's speech for the Canuck gas conference next week. Good job on both! DF Shelley Corman 02/02/2000 09:27 AM To: Mary Kay Miller/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Robert Kilmer/FGT/Enron@ENRON, Ray Neppl/NPNG/Enron@ENRON, Drew Fossum/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Dorothy McCoppin/FGT/Enron@ENRON, Janet Place/NPNG/Enron@ENRON, Mike McGowan/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Susan Scott/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Maria Pavlou/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Glen Hass/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Donna Fulton/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Teb Lokey/FGT/Enron@ENRON cc: Stanley Horton/Corp/Enron@Enron, Bill Cordes/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Rockford Meyer/FGT/Enron@ENRON Subject: February 10 Meeting with Dan Larcamp and Team Lorraine Cross has invited me to participate in an "outreach meeting" with Dan Larcamp and his team on February 10. Also participating in the outreach meeting will be Williams (Judy Neason/Scott Turkington); El Paso (Peggy Heeg) and Coastal (Dan Collins). The meeting comes at Larcamp's request and is part of a series of outreach meetings that OMTR is having with other industry groups including producers, gas and electric utilities and marketers. The purpose of the meeting is not to discuss positions in the current gas NOPR (as OMTR is assuming that the Commission will take action on the gas NOPR in February). The purpose of the meeting is discuss how markets are changing and talk about upcoming regulatory issues. There will be no formal presentations or slides. Lorraine will give a 5 minute overview on INGAA's themes on regulatory policy (these theme's are per the Board of Directors' Task Force on FERC Policy): Competition Re-contracting challenges Rate discounting Each of the four participating companies will have 5 minutes to relate their pipeline experiences to these themes. I would propose to focus my remarks on topic of the continuous contracting state of the pipeline capacity market. The point is to tell Larcamp that we are not looking for a regulatory answer to this short-term, continuous contracting environment. What we are seeking is the rate and service flexibility we need to meet these challenges. Examples will be the new services flexibility that we continue to seek on TW (Enhanced Firm Backhaul, Limited Firm). And, the pricing changes we seek on NNG, including seasonal rates. Again, I don't plan to have any formal slides, but here is the outline of the message. I would also propose to add some specific examples/data on capacity release, recent auction experiences and re-contracting statistics. FYI: El Paso plans to talk about the role that negotiated rate transactions will increasingly play in the market place, citing their experiences in placing El Paso capacity and their negotiated rate contract extensions on Tenn/E. Tenn. Williams tentatively plans to talk about additional flexibility on offshore pipelines, about the need for more self-implementing flexibility, and the impacts of regulatory delay. Please let me know by Monday, February 7 is you have any concerns about the general direction of my remarks or about any other issues that you would have me bring up with Larcamp and team.
