Government Affairs 713 345-4196 ----- Forwarded by Sue Nord/NA/Enron on 06/01/2001 01:50 PM ----- Sue Nord 06/01/2001 01:50 PM To: Stephen D Burns/Corp/Enron@ENRON cc: Subject: Re: EBS Government Affairs Regulatory Report for May 2001 Hi Steve, The reason that I've used "DC Office" is that Linda has indicated that she wants to distinguish between your assignments and Allison's assignments. I'm not sure if she's done this yet and I didn't want to presume anything. If it works better to list your names individually I am happy to do that. To be honest, though, I don't think Rick would be likely to interpret this to mean that your role is simply administrative. Are you around at the end of the day today? I have a meeting from 2:00-4:00, but maybe we could talk afterward about the other issues you raise. Thanks, Sue Sue Nord, Sr. Director Government Affairs 713 345-4196 Stephen D Burns 05/31/2001 11:33 AM To: Sue Nord/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Subject: EBS Government Affairs Regulatory Report for May 2001 Hi Sue: This may be a function of the Washington office/EBS Government Affairs differing reporting relationships, but... With the "DC office" appearing only in supporting roles on reports like these, Rick and Steve Kean are going to continue to have the impression that we exist to schedule meetings and execute plans formulated by others. You know this is a sensitive point for me personally, but beyond that, it is important to my career development that I be seen as taking more of a lead. I suppose Allison would feel the same way once she becomes more comfortable and familiar with the issues. Therefore, two requests. Would you consider listing Allison and me as individuals, not as "DC Office"? Also -- and here I may be pushing it -- as you and I have discussed a couple of times, am I taking the lead in the cable issue? What about the BLM issue? I always appear to Rick and Steve to be supporting Scott on these initiatives. In my own twisted mind, I think of myself as having more of a leadership role. Sorry to continue to be ultra sensitive about this. But frankly (just between the two of us, please) since we've just brought on 2 new Senior Directors in the past month (knocking me a couple of rungs down the seniority ladder in one fell swoop), I am trying to increase my visibility ... and maybe claim a little more credit for issues that I have before. Happy as always to discuss. Muchas gracias, Steve ----- Forwarded by Stephen D Burns/Corp/Enron on 05/31/2001 10:43 AM ----- Eric Benson 05/30/2001 05:16 PM To: Scott Bolton/Enron Communications@Enron Communications, Stephen D Burns/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Allison Navin/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Lara Leibman/NA/Enron@Enron, Margo Reyna/NA/Enron@Enron, John Neslage/ENRON_DEVELOPMENT@ENRON_DEVELOPMENT, Mona L Petrochko/NA/Enron@Enron, Michael Grimes/AP/Enron@Enron, Jan Haizmann/ENRON@EUEnronXGate, Vinio Floris/Corp/Enron@ENRON, Kikumi Kishigami/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Sue Nord/NA/Enron@Enron Subject: EBS Government Affairs Regulatory Report for May 2001 To: Distribution From: Eric Benson Attached for your review and input is the draft EBS Government Affairs Report for May 2001.
