< Rich,
< As promised, here is my summary outline of what we discussed
< regarding preservation of data:
<
< 1. In Portland, we proposed to handle business email related to the
< topics in your preservation letter by instructing employees not to delete
< any email sent or received for 24 hours. Email that is personal and does
< not relate to the business topics you have identified can be kept,
< discarded etc. at the employee's pleasure. Each day there is a backup
< made that will capture the email in those employees mailboxes. After 24
< hours, each employee is free to manage their email box as they deem
< appropriate to the business needs (e.g. keep, discard). From our
< conversation, I understand that you agree that this is an acceptable
< procedure.
<
< 2. With respect to the hard drives on individual computers, you would
< like to get an organizational chart for Portland that would enable us to
< discuss 6-12 individual's computers that would be copied using ProQuest
< Drive Image Pro 4.0. In addition, there may be some other individuals
< that you would like to have us use a software product called Robocopy to
< copy files from their hard drives onto the network. Until we figure out
< which computers to copy etc. we will not begin this process. We discussed
< that because of the holiday period, it may not be practical to get this
< started until after the new year.
<
< 3. Outside of Portland, we have proposed making a snapshot backup along
< business function lines reasonably called for by the subject matter of
< your request. We propose not to backup any other business units or
< functions. On a going forward basis, those business functions that
< related to the subject matter of your request would be instructed not to
< delete business email.
<
< 4. We believe that relevant database backups have been and will
< continue to be made and preserved.
<
< 5. When an employee runs out of hard disk space on their computer, it
< is an acceptable practice to copy files form their hard disk to the
< network (where they will be backed up) and then delete those copied files
< to make sufficient work space for the employee to work.
<
< 6. For EES, I explained that their IT services are outsourced so we do
< not have as detailed information immediately available.
<
< As I mentioned on the phone, all of these discussions and efforts being
< made are done without waiving any objections that any of the Enron
< entities may have to your request including scope, burden, jurisdiction,
< relevance, privilege, privacy, vagueness etc. and Enron specifically
< reserves each and every right and objection it or its employees may have.
<
< Please let me know if your general understanding of our conversation is
< different than the above.
<
< Thanks
< Gary
