< Subject: DAC meeting recap, action items and proposals
<
< Thanks to everyone who joined us this morning in the Capitol - we had a
< very productive meeting. My apologies to those of you who called in but
< were unable to hear everyone. Tomorrow's noon conference call will not
< have that problem because we will all be calling in. To recap for you and
< anyone else who missed the meeting, here's a brief summary of actions we
< decided to take in the next week:
<
< In short, we agreed that maintaining DA requires us to go directly to the
< people who are planning to take it away, namely, Loretta Lynch and Phil
< Angelides. Before the August 23 PUC meeting we need to convince the PUC
< and the Treasurer that 1) there is a way to maintain retail choice that
< will not impede bond sales and reasonable bond ratings, and 2) that the
< DAC is willing to work with both offices to find that solution.
<
< There are 5 action items we must complete before the PUC meets on August
< 23:
<
< 1. Draft a letter for the PUC, Angelides and the Governor that discusses
< what principles the DAC is willing to support as we work toward a solution
< that includes DA - Edelman drafted, awaiting DAC approval.
<
< 2. Submit a filing to the PUC by this Friday that includes language from
< Enron's PUC proposal (discussed in today's meeting and attached below) -
< AReM counsel to draft and submit.
<
< 3. Send letters to the PUC in support of AReM filing - DAC members that
< are non-traditional PUC filers but support AReM's filing should do this.
<
< 4. Set up a preliminary meeting with a few DAC lobbyists and a top
< Angelides staffer - Dominic Dimare.
<
< 5. Set up meeting with Angelides, Allen Zaremberg and DAC members -
< Dominic Dimare.
<
< At the request of a number of DAC members, we have set up a conference
< call for tomorrow to regroup and get a status report on these 5
< deliverables, with specific emphasis on revising/approving the letter,
< legislative next steps and brainstorming potential PR tactics.
<
< The dial-in information is as follows:
<
< Date: Thursday, August 9
< Time: Noon - 1:00 pm
< Dial-In #: 505)766-5458
< Code: 657648
<
< Let me or Tracy know if you have any questions. EM.
