Sandi,
I left Parquet a few v-mails on this.  I haven't heard back, but I assume he 
is still interested in retaining local control of property taxes. Since you 
handled this last time, I assume you'd do the same this time. Can you be on 
the IEP call on Thursday?

		 Subject: Creation of IEP Property Tax Subcommittee; Conference Call 
Scheduled for 9:30 a.m. (PST) on Thursday, May 31


The IEP Regulatory Affairs Committee approved the creation of a new,
Property Tax Subcommittee.  The Regulatory Affairs Committee is noticing the
entire IEP membership inviting participation by all the commpanies
interested in property tax matters.

Last week, Controller Connell indicated an interest in shifting the
jurisdiction over property tax assessment applied to electric generators
from the local level to the State Board of Equalization (SBE).  IEP engaged
in this matter in 1998/1999.  Attached is a brief summary memo of the key
issues at that time.  At that time, IEP successfully argued for retaining
jurisdictional authority at the local level.

The SBE may take this issue up at its June 20, 2001 meeting.  The SBE is
comprised of five voting members.  The membership is divided 3:2 between
democrats and republicans.

The initial meeting of the Subcommittee will be a conference call scheduled
for 9:30 a.m. (PST) on Thursday, May 31.  During this meeting, we will be
discussing policy positions and/or statements that IEP may wish to take, as
well as any tactical matters to be addressed at this time.

The conference call-in number is  800/486-2460
The Call-in Number is    111756
