Don -
I recommend putting the attached e-mails and attachments in the DD room. We've also had verbal discussions with the IEPA to verify that the retest can be postponed. It can.

If you have any questions, please let me or Mike know.

Mike -----Original Message----- From: April, Michelle J (PS, ASD) Sent: Monday, September 25, 2000 3:05 PM To: Murphy, Mike J (PS, GI&FS) Subject: RE: Lincoln Center Improvements -----Original Message----- From: Mitch.Robinson@enron.com [mailto:Mitch.Robinson@enron.com] Sent: Monday, September 25, 2000 1:32 PM To: michelle.april@ps.ge.com Cc: Ross.Newlin@enron.com; Merle.Churchill@enron.com Subject: Lincoln Center Improvements Michelle - Please forward to Mike Murphy. In general, the schedule is acceptable. Please work with Merle on the details. Can you or Mike confirm my understanding of the following? 1. Though the units ran within limits on NOx and CO throughout the summer, GE believes that the performance will be enhanced with the attached modifications (i.e. NOx will be reduced even further to the 7.5-8.5 ppm range). Response: The GE target will be to have NOx at 7.5-8.5 range. In addition the expectation is that CO will also be around 10ppm at Base load conditions. 2. The liners will have their dilution holes resized. Will the secondary nozzles also be modified, or is this not required? Response: The secondary nozzles will be modified to meet the new group number change which will increase the effective area. This is an engineering requirement. In addition the primary nozzle effective are will change with the new part numbers. The liner dilution hole change will be standard across all the units. 3. You can postpone the retest until the next expected run season (December/January). Response: The retest could be delayed until the winter peak season but in the event that a unit was run after modification without a test, the risk of compliance would be to Enron. GE feels very strongly that a reliable operation of the unit would include retest as soon as practical after modifications. In the event the units will not run until 2Q 2001, the abiity of GE to respond to the site need may be in jeopardy due to the high number of new unit start ups. 4. This change will not limit the ability to run prior to the scheduled test, in the event of an unexpected run call. Response: The units would be available to run, but the operator may not know where the unit would be in a regards to compliance. We are also trying to bring the unit back to a nominal firing temperature. The other point to consider is whether or not you need to alert the EPA of the modification and what your requirements are with that entity. 5. Enron or Des Plaines Green Land Development (Lincoln Center) will not incur any financial obligations as a result of the change-out. Response: GE will be paying for all labor, tools and shop work necessary to perform the modifications, but Enron or Des Plaines Green Land Development would be responsible for all fuel costs, electrical costs and operator costs. Thanks for your diligence, and please let the GE team know that I appreciate the effort given to the Lincoln plant. Regarding both the generator change-out and the emissions effort, I have no complaints with GE's performance.

I have also attached the proposed schedule for the work at the Lincoln Center site. The plan is work two (2) shifts per day, ten (10) per day. It is expected to take six (6) days per unit at this time. GE will work to minimize the schedule and we hope with productivity and best practices to improve the schedule. After the hardware changes made, retesting of the units will need to occur. GE will bring and emissions test vendor to the <<Wilton Customerhandout.ppt<< <<Emissions schedule.xls<< site and check the NOx and CO readings. It is expected that the units will need to run at Base Load for Approximately 8-10 hours and then at the reduced loads to check part readings. The total operating time should be about 12 twelve hours. If you have any questions, please contact Michelle April or myself.
