Dingell, Markey Question Easing PUHCA, Investment Regulation A.E. (After Enron)
More fallout from the Enron meltdown surfaced last Wednesday as Democratic Reps. John Dingell (MI) and Ed Markey (MA) asked the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to reconsider its support for the repeal of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (PUHCA), “as well as its permissive administration of the act.” In addition, the two leading Democrats on the House Energy and Commerce Committee sought SEC support for the removal of a provision in pending electric restructuring legislation that would allow a PUHCA-registered holding company to use one of its subsidiaries to operate its own unregistered and unregulated investment company.
Arctic Pipe Still Viable, But Route Remains in Question
Despite the drop in natural gas prices, the global recession and energy security issues, Canadian and Alaskan officials — on the governing side anyway — remain optimistic that an Arctic natural gas pipeline is in the offing. But — and there are several buts — officials on both sides still have come to no agreement as to what route the pipe should take and whether there should be one pipe or two.

Enron Stock Drops to Seven-Year Low, Loses 10.9% Monday
The latest question revolving around Houston and the energy trading community as the week begins is how low can Enron Corp.’s stock go? On Monday, the stock dropped to a low not seen since 1994, failing to boost investor confidence as it lobbied banks for a new credit line. As investors bailed, Moody’s Investor Service cut the energy trader’s long-term debt ratings, and by the time the New York Stock Exchange had closed, Enron had fallen another 10.9%, losing $1.60 to stand at $13.95.
Duke, Mirant Question FERC Must-Offer Directive
Duke Energy Oakland LLC is questioning whether generators should be bound by a “must-offer” obligation included in recent FERC price-mitigation orders if that compliance means that generators will have to run their generating units over and above what is allowed under the units’ air emissions permits.

Otay Mesa Asks to Import Gas for San Diego Plant
To solve the question of where gas supplies will come from for its new generating plant in San Diego, the Otay Mesa Generating Co. has asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for authorization to build gas import facilities at the California-Mexico border to import up to 110 MMcf/d to fuel a 510 MWh station to be sited near San Diego (see NGI, Oct. 16, 2000).
