I'm forwarding this to some folks who are much closer to the Navajo ROW issues than I am. Lou and Steve, please let Leslie and/or me know what direction TW prefers as well as any pitfalls to be wary of. DF Leslie Lawner@EES 07/10/2000 11:11 AM To: Drew Fossum/ET&S/Enron@ENRON cc: Harry Kingerski/HOU/EES@EES Subject: New Mexico First Drew, as you may remember, before Tim Aren abandoned service, he had signed TW up as a sponsor the the New Mexico First Townhall on energy issues. I attended as the Enron person. The Townhall is now in its implementation phase and I want to bring you up to date on what is involved. A number of issues were put in our report, and I will get you a final copy this week (I think one will be available shortly). There is an implementation meeting in Alb. tomorrow. From TW's standpoint, a few issues stand out. First, producers and others joined in our frustation with the native American access issues (I did not raise them, but they came out loud and clear from the producers, which I thought was fine). Accordingly, the Townhall has recommended that our Congressional delegation use their bully pulpit power to call a summit with the energy industry and the indian nations to discuss right of ways, access, taxes, development and other issues. I would think that TW would want to be involved in this, if not a leader in this. Second, the townhall noted that pipeline infrastructure may need upgrading in the state. There are other issues that affect TW not as directly, but that you should be aware of. I will continue to be on the implementation team, and I can bring your issues along and keep you up to date as well. At some point, it may be appropriate to bring in TW or ETS folks, as the action items move forward. Tom Rutherford is another resource that Tim used and that we can consider as things develop. Let me know if you need anything, have any thoughts or want to discuss. I am mindful of the marketing affiliate rules and I don't want to get in trouble with them, but I am an employee of Enron Corp. so I do feel that so far we are in the clear.
