This was drafted per sign-off from our conference call with Steve Kean, Joe Hartsoe and Dan Watkiss yesterday plus drafted with the buy-in from numerous attorneys representing various stakeholders with NARUC being the essential participant. The staff and stakeholders meet again early Monday morning to determine if this agreement is sufficient to meet the needs of Congressman Barton so we can proceed to mark-up. If this proves the case, we will need to immediately also lobby the other provisions which need amendment, but have been held at bay until the transmission language loggerhead we created is removed. The plan would be to determine on Monday the "go" vs. "no go" to full Commerce Committee mark-up. With an affirmative decision, the mark-up would proceed at round-the-clock, record pace with conclusion completed by Thursday, July 27th. We will continue to advise you of the status. As an aside, with Congressman Largent comparing this effort to a "Hail Mary" pass; he said this with optimism. And for you football fans, with the Congressman having been one of the best receivers in the country; our odds are better than they would have been otherwise. Perhaps this is like numerous state efforts before which were pronounced "dead" but resurrected for enactment at the final hour. With the comprehensive bill activity, the stand-alone reliability bill viability will not be considered until September, if at all. This bill's Savings Clause "new" agreement failure also makes bill movement problematic as does the agreement we achieved from all the Stakeholders to share our position to block its movement. We have drafted a letter to the Speaker which is waiting in the wings (to be singed by numerous groups) should it become necessary. ---------------------- Forwarded by Cynthia Sandherr/Corp/Enron on 07/21/2000 11:28 AM --------------------------- Cynthia Sandherr 07/21/2000 11:15 AM To: curry.hagerty@mail.house.gov, cathy.vanway@mail.house.gov, miriam.erickson@mail.house.gov, joe.kelliher@mail.house.gov, andy.black@mail.house.gov, mike.willis@mail.house.gov, bob.bolster@mail.house.gov cc: Subject: Commerce Staff Proposal/Bliley Certification Replacement and Technical Corrections Here's the amendment the group of attorneys in the room drafted after yesterday's meeting and discussion.

I got an E-Mail from Chuck Gray last night in which Chuck told me that NARUC still prefers Barton over Largent, but that he does not oppose this amendment in itself. - 0127103.01
