Kevin wants to hold off filing this RTO pleading until after our meeting with
Kevin on Thurs. at 4:00. From: Christi L Nicolay 11/14/2000 06:29 PM To: dwatkiss@bracepatt.com, sbuchheit@bracepatt.com, Mark Palmer/Corp/Enron@ENRON, James D Steffes/NA/Enron@Enron, Sarah Novosel/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Joe Hartsoe/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Donna Fulton/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron@Enron, Steven J Kean/NA/Enron@Enron, asettanni@bracepatt.com cc: Subject: SE RTO protest w/ press info. Dan-- Please put the attachment into filing format in order to make a filing in each of the current RTOs this Thursday 11/16. Then, our detailed protests will be made on Monday 11/20, as planned. Mark Palmer asked that you forward the Thursday filings to your press contacts with a statement that unless properly structured, the RTO filings could end up being "Really Terrible Options." Also, we will decide probably Friday or Monday on whether we file this attachment in FPL's current request for market based rates continuation, Docket ER97-3359-003 due Monday 11/20, so please prepare that filing. We can also file the attachment in Ameren when FERC notices Ameren's recent request to quit MISO to join Alliance (rather than filing in Ameren Docket No. ER00-2687 as a request for rehearing (due 12/1)). Thanks. ---------------------- Forwarded by Christi L Nicolay/HOU/ECT on 11/14/2000 05:02 PM --------------------------- From: Christi L Nicolay 11/14/2000 06:19 PM To: Shelley Corman/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, David Fairley/HOU/ECT@ECT, Ben Jacoby/HOU/ECT@ECT, David W Delainey/HOU/ECT@ECT, Kevin M Presto/HOU/ECT@ECT, Mark Palmer/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Steven J Kean/NA/Enron@Enron, Richard Shapiro/NA/Enron@Enron, Donna Fulton/Corp/Enron@ENRON, James D Steffes/NA/Enron@Enron, Ron McNamara/NA/Enron@Enron, Robin Kittel/NA/Enron@Enron, Joe Connor/NA/Enron@Enron, Dan Staines/HOU/ECT@ECT, Jeff Brown/NA/Enron@Enron, Tom Chapman/HOU/ECT@ECT, Tom Hoatson/NA/Enron@Enron, Janine Migden/NA/Enron@Enron, Kerry Stroup/NA/Enron@Enron, Janet R Dietrich/HOU/ECT@ECT, John J Lavorato/Corp/Enron@Enron cc: Subject: FPL and the SE RTO protests Attached is the proposed protest that EPMI would file next Monday 11/20 against FPL in its request for continuation of market based rates for its wholesale merchant function and affiliates. EPMI has already filed detailed protests (unlike the attached generic protest) against AEP, Entergy and Southern due to problems with each utility's OASIS system. EPMI plans to file this generic protest in other large vertically integrated utility requests for continuation of market based rates. The attachment now includes a reference to Staff's investigation that states participation in an RTO, without the proper safeguards, including the elimination of the native load exception, will not necessarily reduce the utilities' ability to discriminate against third parties. Plus, there is a reference that Staff found a perception that the SE is the worst area for discriminatory practices. Please let me know if you have an issue with EPMI making this filing in FPL's proceeding. Also, note: EPMI plans to file this generic protest this Thursday in the current RTO proposals -- SPP, Entergy transco, Florida RTO, Southern, Grid south. Then on Monday 11/20, EPMI will be filing its specific protests of other aspects of each RTO filing.
