Atttended the NMOGA meeting in Farmington, NM. It appears that the BLM will
implement its own noise criteria in areas within New Mexico that are deemed
sensitive by the BLM. The proposed noise threshold will be 48.6 DBA(A).
There are no Transwestern facilities in the Farmington resource area which
will be impacted by this proposed level, however the potential exists for
several Transwestern locations in southeast New Mexico to be impacted.

A meeting was held with the president of Del Mar, concerning the issues
associated with the lead in their lead acetate tape for monitoring sulfur
concentrations in the natural gas. A request was made to the company to
determine the feasability of recycling the tape and eleviate the management
and disposal issues associated with the tape as a hazardous waste.

The quarterly SoCal Transwestern PCB conference call was held this week.
Transwesten's share (86%) of SoCal's PCB management activities was approx.
$79,000. Due to the press release by PG&E concerning the increased
occurance of PCB's into their system, SoCal has initiated increased sampling
activities on their system and will be proposing to do additional monitoring
to track liquids from Transwestern's M/S into the SoCal system. Preliminary
sampling results at strategic liquids locations on the SoCal system has
revealed hits of PCB's in the range of 7-10 ppm, although, a hit of 77 ppm
was discovered.

As a result of an isolated hit of PCB's into the new filter separator at the
PG&E C/S in excess of regulated levels, a conference call was held the ET&S
VP to determine forthcoming activities with PG&E. A meeting has been
scheduled at the PG&E C/S next week to reveiw sampling on the PG&E system and
discuss the recent hit of PCB's in the F/S and what forthcoming activities
will be conducted at the site.
