He has provided va= luable transmission & dispatch modeling expertise to our fundies group (he = worked for Vince in Research). We have lost Anna Santucci to CMS and this= would not change our headcount in the fundies group. Additionally, if I was forced to cut additional bodies, most of the cuts wo= uld likely come from real-time (3), options (2), regional trading (2), logi= stics (1-2). For Martin's planning purposes, I need to know something ASAP. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: =09Imai, Rika =20 Sent:=09Wednesday, January 09, 2002 1:44 PM To:=09Presto, Kevin M.; Will, Lloyd Subject:=09Martin Lin and Power Fundamentals Kevin & Lloyd, As we re-asses the fundamental information needed by the traders, I think t= hat it is important to actively recruit Martin Lin to the power fundamental= s group.=20 Martin Lin has developed and continuously improved the current short term a= nd long-term Interconnect and Ercot models as well as played an important p= art in bringing fourth advancements with Powerworld.
