RE: WEQ Request for Comments

DATE: July 10, 2006

An industry comment period begins today, July 10, 2006 and ends on August 9, 2006 for one WEQ recommendation that is posted on the NAESB web site:

2nd Revised Recommendation R04006D – OASIS 1A Enhancements - Sale or Assignment of Transmission Service – The 2nd Revised Recommendation is posted in clean and redline format on the NAESB website:

Clean Version: http://naesb.org/pdf2/r04006D_rec_2rev_clean.doc;

Redline Version[1]: http://naesb.org/pdf2/r04006D_rec_2rev_redline.doc.

Please note that this recommendation has been posted for comment and considered by the WEQ Executive Committee on two previous occasions. The recommendation has been remanded to the ESS/ITS by the WEQ Executive Committee on two occasions – November 29, 2005 and May 9, 2006 (You can access the minutes of the WEQ Executive Committee meetings referenced above on the WEQ Executive Committee page: http://www.naesb.org/weq/weq_ec.asp).

On May 9, 2006, the WEQ Executive Committee requested that the ESS/ITS review comments submitted by Entergy (the comments submitted by Entergy are posted on the NAESB Request Page: http://www.naesb.org/pdf2/weq_050106_entergy.doc). The ESS/ITS reviewed Entergy’s comments and revised the recommendation based on the comments and discussion. The ESS/ITS also drafted a Response To Comments Document (posted on the NAESB Request Page as an attachment to the Recommendation: http://naesb.org/pdf2/r04006D_response%20to%20comments_attachment.doc) that includes a response to each comment from Entergy. The ESS/ITS drafted the document as a reference for the WEQ Executive Committee and other interested parties to see how the ESS/ITS responded to the comments.

All interested parties, regardless of membership status within NAESB are eligible to submit comments for consideration. The WEQ Executive Committee will review this recommendation and consider it for vote as a NAESB WEQ standard at its meeting on August 15, 2006 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The WEQ EC will also review all submitted comments.

All comments received by the NAESB office by end of business on August 9 will be posted on the Home Page (http://www.naesb.org/request.asp) and forwarded to the WEQ EC members for their consideration. If you have difficulty downloading the recommendations and attachments, please call the NAESB office at (713) 356-0060.

Best Regards,

Laura B. Kennedy
