Capacity Release

I spoke the Steve say this am. I've asked him to revisit the idea of
allowing the WIC capacity to be re-leased to Huber as a pre-arranged deal
(not subject to bidding). I think he see's my logic and will accommodate us;
however, Steve wants to run it by his regulatory people.

With regard to the CIG space, when Huber releases the capacity back to us, it
looks like we will probably have to go the route of "first bidder meeting
minimum terms" or release the capacity on a recallable basis. I've asked him
about contingencies to the bid to ensure ENA's gets the capacity. I asked
him to look into a possible release scenario with a prearranged "first bidder
meeting minimum terms" whereby, ENA has a right to match in the event a third
party is the "first bidder". I don't feel real confident that CIG will allow
this. I follow-up when I get more info.
