FYI. I am working on new procedures requiring a "budget" for outside counsel
on our more complex deals to improve cost control. Mark

Subject: ENA Legal Budget @ August 31, 2000

I have reviewed the O&M Expenses for ENA Legal for month-ended August 31,
2000, as compared to the budgeted amount for the same period. The overall
legal budget was $4,835,184 over budget as of August 31, primarily due to
Outside Costs which went over the planned amount by $5,094,838. The most
significant outside costs were incurred in litigation, power plant
development, legally intensive deals such as United Illuminating, and
misallocated costs for Projects Summer and California. The Inside Costs were
under budget in the amount of $259,654.

If you have any questions, please call me at extension 35448.
