Jim.

You may find this presentation about the Cuiaba story interesting . I
developed it March 99 as a training tool for our new developers. It took me
through December 99 to negotiate the remaining PPA indexation issues. There
are two embedded Word files in the document (Sept 97 logs). From your
perspective, you can subtitle it "make up the regulation on-the-go". Such
is life in the developing world. When you read the log you will see that
under the circumstances, you always have one foot in and another out (getting
ready to terminate)

Rick Lammers is still continuing to close financing but facing other issues.
Primarily, 1) construction delays in the pipeline due to governmental
interference with the route (after getting construction license), 2)
technical problems with the Siemens turbines, 3) getting consent documents
out of the public entity bureaucracy, 4) getting the Central Bank to clarify
the US$ account regulations for the project.
