I'm forwarding a notice from the California ISO, telling us it will be
responding to a very broad Subpoena from the Electricity Oversight Board (EOB). Many of the questions relate to the period of from September 2000 through November 2000. The ISO indicates that it will be answering the requests because the EOB has granted what it believes is an adequate protective order. This order agrees to keep the answers to certain questions confidential, but to provide them to the CPUC and the AG if they agree to keep them confidential. If we have concerns about the confidential order we are supposed to advise the ISO by Monday 12/1, at 9:00 a.m. The subpoeana, and confidential order, and a letter explaining the treatment of the various requests are attached. I am assuming that because the order appears to protect our commercial interests, we will not protest this. Richard - let me know if you want to have a conference call on this and I'll have Lysa set one up. ---------------------- Forwarded by Mary Hain/HOU/ECT on 12/06/2000 08:33 AM --------------------------- Enron Capital & Trade Resources Corp. From: "Woertz, Byron" <BWoertz@caiso.com< 12/05/2000 05:34 PM To: ISO Market Participants <IMCEAEX-_O=CAISO_OU=CORPORATE_CN=DISTRIBUTION+20LISTS_CN=ISO+20MARKET+20PARTI CIPANTS@caiso.com< cc: Subject: CAISO Notice - Electricity Oversight Board (EOB) Further Subpoena ISO Market Participants and Scheduling Coordinators: The Electricity Oversight Board ("EOB") has issued a further subpoena to the ISO in the context of its ongoing investigation of California's electricity grid and markets during and subsequent to the Summer 2000. The subpoena seeks information that is confidential under ISO Tariff Section 20.3.2. This notice is provided in accordance with Tariff Section 20.3.4 and includes the subpoena as an attachment. The EOB has issued three letters in which it sets forth the confidential treatment it will afford confidential information produced by the ISO including: * an initial letter dated July 20 which addresses data subject to ISO Tariff Section 20.3.; * a letter dated July 28 which addresses additional data; and * a letter dated October 3 which clarifies that the confidential treatment set forth in the July 20 and 28 letters will be applied by the EOB on an ongoing basis in its investigation of the electricity markets. The three letters are attached to this notice. The ISO will mark as confidential documents it produces to the EOB that contain information subject to 20.3.2. It is the ISO's understanding that the confidential treatment provided by the EOB to information subject to 20.3.2 is satisfactory to Market Participants. The ISO intends to comply with the EOB subpoena in a timely manner on December 18. If a Market Participant requires any further confidentiality protection, the ISO expects such Market Participant to take timely action to obtain directly from the EOB such further protection so that production by the ISO is not delayed. The ISO would appreciate being notified of any such action and its resolution so that it can comply with its responsibilities as set forth in ISO Tariff section 20.3. The EOB contact related to the subpoena is Eric Saltmarsh who can be reached at (916) 322-8601. Any concerns relating to the EOB's subpoena should be communicated by 9:00 a.m. on Monday, December 11th, to Jeanne Sol, at jsole@caiso.com <mailto:jsole@caiso.comburns@caiso.com< , and copied to Charlie Robinson at crobinson@caiso.com <mailto:crobinson@caiso.com< and Norma Formanek at nformanek@fbm.com <mailto:nformanek@fbm.com< .
