Let's discuss in person. Maybe we should ask Nancy her opinion as well.

Subject: VEPCO Interconnect

Kay and Reagan,

We have an opportunity (VERY, VERY preliminary) to supply full requirements
to a co-op that is breaking away from Old Dominion Electric Cooperative
(ODEC) that is located in VEPCO's territory. They have about 500 MW peak
load and 200 MW of resources, everything else is covered by VEPCO.

If we got back our queue spot, we could build our peaker (within VEPCO's
territory) to meet this load.

Kay, what is your opinion on the strength of our argument with VEPCO? We may
have a new deal that makes building the peaker viable again and so we may
want to push them on it.

Doctor, do we have a pulse? It may be the death of me, but we're going to
build that peaker!

Heather

Kay,

As we evaluate the viability of pushing VEPCO for reinstatement of our queue
spot, a legal interpretation and opinion is needed. VEPCO Capacity
Acquisition withdrew us from the queue once the PPA negotiations were
terminated eventhough we had a written agreement to do the interconnect
study. We want the queue spot back and are evaluating how hard to push. As
soon as we get it back, however, we will be pressed to specify equipment for
the next phase of the interconnect study.

Keeping in mind that a "material change" would again jeopardize the queue
position AND knowing that there is a high probability that the equipment
configuration will change, the question is.......legally, how much room do we
have under their tariff to make changes without being "material"? In other
words, if we change equipment configuration while keeping the MWs roughly the
same (around 250 MW), is this a "material change" causing us to forfeit the
queue anyway?

The web site ( http://www.dom.com/operations/elec-transmission/gi-main.html )
has the filings for interconnect procedures. Can you give an opinion?

Thanks for your help,

Reagan
