They have about 500 MW peak load and 200 MW of resources, everything else is covered by VEPCO. If we got back our queue spot, we could build our peaker (within VEPCO's territory) to meet this load. Kay, what is your opinion on the strength of our argument with VEPCO? We may have a new deal that makes building the peaker viable again and so we may want to push them on it. Doctor, do we have a pulse? It may be the death of me, but we're going to build that peaker!

VEPCO Capacity Acquisition withdrew us from the queue once the PPA negotiations were terminated eventhough we had a written agreement to do the interconnect study. We want the queue spot back and are evaluating how hard to push. As soon as we get it back, however, we will be pressed to specify equipment for the next phase of the interconnect study. Keeping in mind that a "material change" would again jeopardize the queue position AND knowing that there is a high probability that the equipment configuration will change, the question is.......legally, how much room do we have under their tariff to make changes without being "material"? In other words, if we change equipment configuration while keeping the MWs roughly the same (around 250 MW), is this a "material change" causing us to forfeit the queue anyway? The web site ( http://www.dom.com/operations/elec-transmission/gi-main.html ) has the filings for interconnect procedures. Can you give an opinion? Thanks for your help, Reagan
