Frank,

Accounting has indicated our October invoice has some DDVC and IT overrun charges that our metering does not show. Before we can pay these, we would need you to verify the measurement of all of our stations. Bill and his SCADA folks believe the untelemetered allocations are inaccurate, and likely causing the DDVC and overrun.

I have asked our Accounting group to short pay the October DDVC's of $26,374; and to also short pay the associated transport invoice for the IT overrun of $29,704.52; a total disputed cost of $56.078.52.

Let me know if you need any additional information, a brief recap of the disputed charges are shown below,

Thanks,

Tom
