Chris;
Send this bill to Raquel Magana at 600 Jefferson. She will forward it onto
Ronnie Shields in our Conn. office for payment.

Ronnie;
Please have someone look at the CES purchase agreement to see how these
should be handled. I would assume that at a minimum, they would pay, 7/12ths
of the bill since the deal was consummated on July 31. There may be
provisions where they bear all the taxes.

I have a tax bill to Columbia Energy Services in the amount of $5,606.78 for
gas stored at the Bear Creek Storage facility. The amount is $5,606.78 and
it is for the the 2000 tax year. I was notified about this yesterday and I
think it was due on 12/31/2000.

How do you want to handle this? I was going to pay it and bill New Power for
the whole amount. I will also have our tax department fax a copy to Jeff.

Robert, please fax a copy of the letter from Jimmie Smith and the CES tax
bill to Jeff Porter at 713-646-3499.

Thanks
