Re: Direct Access

Harry raises some good points.

I am attaching another copy of my comments from this morning--It looks like
this draft came out before you got these comments.

I will be traveling without access to my e-mail from 11-4 PST. Please call
on my cell phone 713 302 9089 if you have questions. MDS

Subject: Re: Direct Access

Initial comments for discussion:

Fees (exit, entry): should be transparent - in absolute terms and formula
that will be used. Can notional numbers be posted daily?

One-way tolling: eliminate re-entry fees. Puts new and returning customers
on equal footing and eliminates additional admin burdens.

DWR stranded costs for exit fee: should be an affirmative obligation on
their part to mitigate any incremental costs (reselling, etc.)

KW threshold: we're ok with 100 kw (or lower).

Limit on switching: once a year is reasonable.

Areas to clarify:
DWR carve-out: if load departs (re-enters) DWR, does it simultaneously
depart (re-enter) the utility? Assuming a clean break from bundled service,
is there an exit fee from the utility portion of the bundle?

Closure: need to specify when exit/re-entry fees no longer apply.

Open Subscription Period: if DWR does only 5+ year contracts, does this mean
there will be no open periods for a long time?
