We are looking forward to working with these new compan= ies and to providing all of our licensees with continuing excellence in GPC= M training and support. =20 RBACReturning to HoustonNext Week =20 Bob Brookswill be in Houstonnext week for GPCM training and demonstration. = There are time slots available on Thursday, November 1st.

The FERC has stated in a Federal Register = notice that it seeks to change the natural gas business rule to synchronize= the its regulation of recalled capacity with its standards for intra-day n= ominations. The changes are related to FERC'sopen access regulation, and wo= uld also give transporters more flexibility in transactions to release capa= city. The proposed change would rescind Gas Industry Standards Board provis= ions which require notice of capacity release recalls by 8 a.m. central tim= e and which ban partial day recalls of capacity. The board developed its ru= les based on a consensus of its gas pipeline members. Last February, the GI= SB asked the FERC to clarify the rules because of confusion over whether pa= rtial day recalls of capacity were a valid practice. The proposal would all= ow releasing shippers to coordinate recalls of capacity release transaction= s and renominationswith the current intra-day nomination cycle and recall r= ights would operate according to the same timelines that now apply to inter= ruptible transportation. The proposal also seeks to create more competition= for pipeline capacity with parity between scheduling release transactions = and scheduling of pipeline interruptible service. Allowing shippers to reca= ll capacity quickly means more capacity would be released.=20 =20 Bob Brooks GPCM Natural Gas Market Forecasting Systemhttp://gpcm.rbac.com=20
