Gentlemen:  as you may have heard, I am assuming responsibility for heading 
up the government/regulatory affairs efforts beyond my current turf of Europe 
to include Africa, Asia, Australia.  This is why I generated an early e-mail 
on the Gaza project.  I am now trying to meet with my new team members, and 
clients/customers in the organisation.  I am headed to Houston on Sunday, for 
3 days of meetings, and first week of March begin a journey that will take me 
to most parts of East Asia/Australia.  Any suggestions on how (where) we get 
together, and do you think it is a high priority, or not urgent.  It is not 
that I am looking to avoid a trip, but e-mails like those below suggest that 
I can be kept well-informed without flying somewhere just to say "hello".  I 
know Mac is in Dubai.  I can fly there, or you can come to London (or are 
there others I should also meet in Dubai?).  Andrew - where are you based?  
If in Dubai, then does it make sense for me to come to you?  Sooner rather 
than later, or no urgency?  If in Houston, should we try to meet next week?  
Or are you in still some other location?  Your thoughts/views are 
appreciated.  thanks  mcs

mac-

i have a slightly different view on your point #4.  the israelis are actually 
pushing for a palestinian water project as it will greatly strengthen the 
israeli position in the land settlement discussions in the peace talks.  the 
PNA is saying that they need more land in the west bank in order to gain more 
access to aquifers under the land.  the isaelis want a desal project for the 
PNA so that they can claim that the PNA has a larger water base, and thus 
does not need to have more land for access to more water.  the issue is that 
there is not practical way in which gaza generated water can efficiently 
reach the west bank, thus a water project in gaza should really be a moot 
point in this discussion, although it will not be due to the lack of 
rationale to their discussions.

i think that it is worth pointing out that the US consulate and embassy in 
israel have been helpful to us.  from the macro level, there needs to be more 
proactive cooperation between the PNA and GOI on this project (due to the 
logistical and technical reasons that mac pointed out below).  furthermore, 
it it worth noting that the PNA need to be more willing to adapt their 
standards to be more in line with large international transactions, as the 
local process that they wish to cling to is very cumbersome, and will not 
benefit the PNA by attracting large scale foreign investment.

please let me know if you wish to discuss this further.

The IPP in Gaza is progressing albeit somewhat behind schedule.  This 
combined cycle power plant is the first infrastructure development project in 
Gaza and the first by a major Western company anywhere in "Palestine."  There 
are several issues which should be addressed and may be raised during the 
Secretary's visit.

1.  All equipment for the plant must transit Israel.  We have been assured by 
the Israelis that movement of the equipment will not be impeded as long as it 
is on the list of equipment we provide them.  That said, there are countless 
opportunities for equipment to be delayed in Israel awaiting clearance, 
whether on the list or not.  First power could be delayed indefinitely if the 
Israelis choose to do so for political, security, or other reasons.

2.  Fuel for the plant, once operational, will also transit Israel.  Again, 
disruption of the fuel supply for any length of time will in effect pull the 
plug on power in Gaza.  Gas from Egypt has been discussed; it remains to be 
seen if that will be a reality anytime soon.

3.  Although not officially from the Israeli government, we have been told 
that as soon as the first watt of power from the plant is produced, the 
Israelis will turn off supply of electricity to Gaza.  The current 
consumption is about 110MW.  The first phase of the plant will produce 40MW.  
This appears to be the beginning of a power supply arrangement whereby Israel 
sells Gaza electricity to make up the difference.  That electricity is likely 
to be more expensive than that which the plant will supply; Enron could well 
end up being blamed for the higher cost.

4.  Water is another critical issue.  The Palestinians want their own supply 
of fresh water which must necessarily be desalinated.  Israel is currently 
selling water to Gaza; it is not in Israel's best interest to lose this 
customer, therefore she may attempt to delay a desalination project.

5.  OPIC project funding is problematical.  Since they originally invited 
Enron to take on this project, they should necessarily also be involved.  
Lack of OPIC support could jeopardize other project financing and drive up 
costs.

6.  The Israelis must also "approve" the environmental impact of the plant.  
The plant will meet or exceed World Bank guidelines, more so when operating 
on gas.  While not a probem at this point, the Israelis could delay 
construction/operation over environmental "concerns."

Andrew is the lead developer for this project and may have other issues for 
consideration.  Thanks.  Mac

Mark - 

Good suggestion.  I spoke to Scott Rebltiz who told me that important 
decisions are to made this week at OPIC concering the Gaza project.  I will 
work with Scott and John Hardy to make sure that our message is consistent 
and helpful.  I will also work with Mac for a comprehensive update and 
strategy.

Joe?Chris - this covers some of my new turf.  We have, I am told, a power 
project in Gaza that we are working on.  It is probably early days, but 
perhpas Mac mcClelland in Dubai can shed some light on whether we would want 
to get that project on the Secretary of Energy's radar screen.   mcs
