Pat,
Please schedule both the June 14 and July 18 on my calendar. Thanks ----- Forwarded by Steve Van Hooser/HOU/ECT on 05/23/2000 03:55 PM ----- "Doug John and Kim Clark (Kim Clark)" <kclark@jhenergy.com< 05/23/2000 02:19 PM To: jsarikas@foster-FA.com, pgibbs@foster-FA.com cc: Dorothy_Mersereau@br-inc.ca, lmarlatt@br-inc.com, rebecca.w.cantrell@enron.com, steve.van.hooser@enron.com, jpaganis@hess.com, GJPorter@midamerican.com, s.halfin@pecorp.com, egrenier@sablaw.com, rmaywalt@sablaw.com, gknowles@schiffhardin.com Subject: Data Responses We have been served with the data responses of Northern Border to requests by PAGUS, NGPL, Staff, and others. Some of this information would be useful to John in preparing for his testimony at the hearing, and also for the purpose of crafting the cross examination of opposing witnesses. These data responses are available in our office for you to peruse it at your leisure. In terms of scheduling, the next important date is June 14, which is when Northern Border submits rebuttal testimony, and when Staff, PAGUS, and NGPL file rebuttal in response to John's answering testimony. Discovery on that testimony is due June 23. Your help in formulating discovery will be needed. The hearing is presently scheduled for July 18 (absent settlement). Obviously we will need to get together to prepare cross of the opposing witnesses and to prep John for his testimony. In terms of progress on settlement, you should be aware that while there have been some private settlement talks among certain parties, there is no presently scheduled settlement conference. Nevertheless, we expect some or all of the parties will be working to try to achieve some form of settlement until the hearing starts. However, whether a full or partial settlement of the rate case issues will occur before the hearing is too speculative to predict at this time.
