You raise a very interesting question on how EECC and ENA will interface in
the future. I understand that ENA now has a Technical Support Group (something like that), and some of the folks are EECC personnel who have transferred to ENA. I do not know their function or role. As for the integration of EECC legal comments into a document, I would say that it would depend on the comment. Essentially, the deals are ENA deals, not EECC deals, which means ENA has decision making responsibility. Also, ENA is the project sponsor/owner (until sold), and NEPCO is usually the contractor. The conflicts arise when NEPCO (usually not EECC on ENA deals) is asked to wrap certain contracts, so EECC or NEPCO takes a position as a contractor. So it is difficult for EECC to act as the owner's engineer and the EPC contractor. Another interface issue is that EECC contracts personnel do not typically involve the EECC lawyers in major equipment contracts until the end of the negotiation process. Perhaps this has changed since I left, but that was how things worked when I was with EECC. On the finance/deal lawyer front, my question is who deals with the lenders and their counsel once the financing vehicle is in place? I'll let you know if I think of anything else. I suspect Sheila will have some insight, also.

We are still in the brainstorming stage, trying to think about the agenda for the meeting, and what the ENA representatives should say. I've attached both an agenda and a first crack at the Project Development Process as we see it. It would be GREATLY APPRECIATED if you could provide some comments on how you envision EE&CC and ENA working together on projects, especially how you see the Legal teams interfacing. I tried with a few bullet points, but please feel free to delete, add, amend, rewrite, etc... I'll fax a synthesized version of your comments to Lisa at the end of today. Thank you in advance for your suggestions. -Catherine x3-9943
