FYI - I believe this is important.  According to Morgan (CES's CNG scheduler) 
CES currently has about 7,000 dth of idle capacity.  I've had 3 people call 
me today looking for CNG capacity for Jan 2000.

Chris this is capacity we got from NIMO as part of a peaking deal with them,
they can call on gas delivered to their gate,they reimburse for all cost at a
north point gas daily price plus 100% transport.  We in essance can sell the
capacity off on a monthly basis (sell it delivered)  NIMO would not allow us 
to
use this as part of our transport to our enduses though, we also have capacity
for that.

How much of the NIMO capacity (about 15,000 day of North to North) was 
dedicated
to retail?

From what I'm seeing, the retail volumes are looking fairly small.
