As I reported to you from Irvine on Friday, I attended the hearing conducted by Senator Dunn in Irvine, California. It was sound bite city, with no good press for any generator or marketer.  At the outset of the hearing Sen Dunn stated that his committee had been in lengthy discussions regarding confidentiality issues with the generators, without success, and that they would be sending out subpoenas for records starting on Monday(today) and that the production of documents from Cal ISO was to start last Friday.  Sen Dunn spent much of the day making his public record , posturing about the difficulty of getting any documents from any generator or marketer because of claims of confidentiality, and how unresponsive FERC has been. He got the FERC lawyer, Robert Pease, to testify that any confidentiality afforded to the bid data at Cal ISO under the FERC tariff would end after 6 months. As you undoubtedly read, the PUC chairwoman had nothing good to say about the generators. Since the subpoenas will probably be forthcoming shortly, do we want to have a conference call of the group to discuss what transpired at Friday's hearing ? I am interested in knowing  how everyone intends to proceed in response to any subpoenas from the Committee,particularly after the failed efforts with the protective order. Please call me if we have not talked by phone when you get this.
