HPL Meter #989648 TRAM/HPL - TRANSTEXAS THOMPSON

Daren:

On 9/24/99, the above meter recorded flow of 437 Mmbtus. There was no deal
at this meter the month prior or after. Logistics needs either a deal to
record these volumes which have flowed into HPL's pipeline or Logistics needs
approval to writeoff these volumes to Unaccounted for Gas. (Please print,
sign, and return the original to Clem Cernosek).
