FYI--PG&E has withdrawn their Open Season application.  Mark and I will continue to monitor PG&E's filings for the Gas Accord II filing which many had expected would be filed by this point in time.  gh

Glen,

In case you have not seen this PG&E motion. PG&E is calling it quits on its
BACKBONE Open Season application.  It is clear that PG&E can not maintain
its plan roll out for this Open Season and therefore one of the primary
reasons to do this at all (keeping pace with Ruby and Sonoran Pipelines)has
been made impossible. Next, there was a growing consensus that market
participants required more information concerning backbone rates and
operational structure. These items would be included in the long awaited GAS
ACCORD II filing. PG&E has to file its GAS ACCORD II, then I would expect a
likely re application of an open season. NO definite word on when the G II
will be filed. Mark, IGS.
