Allyson,
Thank you for the update. Is not having the CPCN an absolute bar to beginning construction? What are the risks? Thanks, Kay "Duncan, Allyson" <aduncan@kilstock.com< on 07/25/2000 08:49:04 AM To: "'Mann Kay'" <Kay.Mann@enron.com<, "'Keenan Jeffrey'" <Jeffrey.M.Keenan@enron.com<, "'Chapman Tom'" <tom.chapman@enron.com< cc: "'Mellencamp Lisa'" <lisa.mellencamp@enron.com<, "'Kroll Heather'" <Heather.Kroll@enron.com<, "Fine, Jonathan" <JFine@kilstock.com< Subject: CPCN Update Sami Salib of the Public Staff is drafting the agenda item that will go on the Commission's Open Agenda Conference for approval to establish the procedural schedule for the CPCN application (intervention dates, intervenor testimony, rebuttal testimony, etc). Although he wanted to schedule the evidentiary hearing for the last week in September, the Commisssion's calendar is currently full. So he has tentatively scheduled it for Monday, October 2. The problem with that is that it makes it virtually impossible to meet the November 1 construction date if the Commission allows the customary 30 days after the hearing in which to file briefs and proposed orders. I urged Sami to please see if he could calendar the hearing for the third week in September. One of the things that ENA will have to do is to have notice published in newspapers in the Rocky Mount area for several consecutive weeks prior to the hearing so that affected persons will have an opportunity to comment. I am trying to get Sami to place the draft agenda item and procedural schedule on the Commission's July 31 Open Agenda Conference so that the notices can start to run August 7. That action, along with scheduling the hearing for the third week in September, will make it far more likely than not that the CPCN will issue before November 1. Failing that, we can work with the Public Staff to shorten the period within which to file briefs and proposed orders after the hearing to three or preferably two weeks. It will not be difficult to do that if there are no intervenors, or if the intervenors do not object. Sami has promised to let me know by tomorrow when the agenda item will go before the Commission, and the dates in the procedural schedule. Please call me if you have questions.
