STATI 0F TIIAS I V COUNTY OF CAMIRCN I le wAVIT

. BE70RE ME, the undersigned official, on this day personaHy ,

appeared Robert E. Rounderee, who is personally k=own to me, and .

first being duly sworn according to law upon his oath deposed and said:

My na=e is Robert E. Rodadtree; I am over 18 years of age,  ;

3 and I reside at 205 Calle Amistosa #138, Brownsvine, Texas. I have never been convicted of a crime, and I am fully competent to -

make this af#idavit. I have. personal knowledge of tha facts stated r .

l herein, and they are au true and correct.

On March 2% 1980, Mr. Merle 3crchele of CP&L ca ned to set up an appoinc=ene with me on March 25, 1980 at 9:00 am.

I was forced to cancel the 9:00 am appointment on March 24, 1980.

Mr. Borchelt called again on March 25, 1980 and I agreed to pick him up at the Brownsville Airport that day at 11:00 am for a conference.

Mr. Larry Gawlik, my Associate. Manager for' Engineering, and I met Mr. Borchelt at the Brownsvtue Airport at n:00 am, March 25, 1980 l and picked up Mr. Borchelt and Mr. Buddy- Teague of CP&L. The four of I

us then met Mr. Tyler Russen of CP&L at the Beacon Harbor Restaurant for a luncheon conference.

Mr. Borchelt stated that he had been asked by Mr. Durwood Chalker i

l of CSW to meet with me and bring me up to date on ongoing discussions between the Texas IOU's relative to a settlement of the interstate versus intrastate proble=s between CS*4 and Texa. Utilities and Houston ,

Light and Power. .

W. Borchelt stated that agreenent had been reached a=ong the IOU's for the construction of two direct current interstate ties of 50016 and 250 capacities and chat by virtue of the direct current transmission across state lines that Texas Utilities and Houston Light and Power would not be subject to federal regulatica.

h. Borchelt also stated that. complete settlement was anticipated .

during the first two weeks of April 1980. ,

I then asked .if any party had been. involved in the settlement nego-c1ations other than the ICU's and W. Borchelt stated that none had but that aI2. were now being inforned as I was.

I then. asked Mr. Borchelt if the federal and state regulatory bodies

! had been a party to the settlement talks and he said that nestings had been held with the Con =sissions- of Taus, Oklahoma and Arkansas and with, the Governors' offices of those states and that all conz:ents were favor-

, able to the direct current transfer mode as a basis of settlement.

  • I then asked if 'the federal regulatory' staffs had been contacted and Mr. Borchelt stated that they had. and that without comminnent the rea'ctions expressed were favorable. .

l I asked Mr. Borchelt if his conversation with ma was to be con-i

( sidered cocfidential in nature and he said no but that he hoped it would not be given to the news media prematurely.

I. cold Mr. Borchelt that I appreciated the infornation and that Brevnsv111e was prepared to enter settlement' negotiations in line with our consistent position that benefits accruing 'to the electric industry should flow to the benefit of all reg =ents of the industry.

AF7IDA7IT - Icg3 3 I also took occasion to. caution Mr. Borchelt that my legal counsel was very likely to be upset when I informed them of the status of settle-

=ent talks of which they had no knowledge and urged him to have his at-torneys contac: my actorneys.andfinform them of the status of settlement and why they- had been excluded from settlement discussions.

Dear Mr. Round:

ree:

As our meeti=g in Dallas on Febr:ary 1,1980, you asked for an es.1=ata of the ra:es which igh: apply duri=g :he ce== of the is:=:connec:1on con :ac: ad l a sm:- of C?L's' post:1on on this con:: ace. Isclosed are the esti= aced ra:es -

I based on 1979 ac:ual costs, and budgeted addi: ions to plan: and your forecasted i

Second, C?L projec:s that ic will have surplus capacity, including the reser res for tha: capacity, in the a=ounts and at the c1=es shown on the en-closed table. We are villing to reserve all or a par: of this surplus, is- .

ciuding fled by you. rese: ses, for FU3, but only on a take or pay basis for the a=ou== spec-As you know, us are negotiating vi:h others for the sale of all -

Mr. Bob Roundtree

  • February 1.5, 1980 '

1980 and 1984 is based on your willingness to cocmic to taking that amount of

s. energy. If you wish more flexibility in the amount of energy to be .aken, Monthly Rate "3" could be employed. '22e degree 'of flexibility allowed in your capacity factor will necessarily be reflected in the race design.

We are also enclosing'calculatio' ns for hypothetical rate de' sign for trans-mission seryices based on the TTS, Positite'Impac: MVA-Mile approach. 'Ihis diffe:s from the LCRA contract which contains an* Absolute Value I= pact Jef-Mile approach.

It is otherwise si=ilar to LCRA approach.

Dear Dave:

Yesterday, Mr. M. L. Borchelt, Executive Vice President and Chief Engineering Officer of Central Power and Light Company, a subsidiary of Central and South West Corporation, called on Mr. Robert . Roundtree, Manager of the Public Utilities Board of Brownsville, Texas, at the express request of Mr. Durwood Chalker, Board Chairman of C&SW, i to inform Brcwnsville generally of the plans of CaSW, Houston Lighting and Power Cccoany, and Texas Utilities, to settle the above-referenced litigation. de stated, among other things, that the settlement had been informally discussed and approved by the Governors and regulatory

comissions of Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas. He also stated that it had l also been discussed with Federal agencies, and they are in general accord, .-

l though no comitment has been made. Needless to say, Brcwnsville views the settlement of th'is litigation as extremely desirable and is prepared to cooperate fully to achieve this end. Brcwnsville has a substantial interest in these pro-ceedings, as set forth in our pleadings and depositions, and, of course, desires that any proposed settlement resolves the pertinent issues raised by. Brcwnsville and demonstrably meets the standards of public interest as they relate to the power interconnection, interchange and pooling of electric utility resources throughout the Southwest region of the country.- Brownsville, all smaller utility systems, and all consumers are benefitted by interregional exchange and pooling arrangements which serve the purposes of Section 202(a) of the Federal Power Act as well as meet all pertinent standards of that Act, the Atomic Energy Act and the Public Utility Holding Ccmpany Act.

                                                                                                                                    /

r David M. Stahl, Esq. March 25,1980 I am sure you appreciate that C&SW's interest in achieving settlement can best be served by bringing into the settlement negotiations all substantially interested parties, including Brcwnsville, and at the 1 earliest possible stage, because otherwise major parties bargain for and develop vested negotiated interests which may create difficulties in accomodating the needs of later-admitted parties. Accordingly, it is requested that you furnish us with copies of such agreements or proposed agreements or understandings that have been reached to date and that you provide for our prcmpt entry into the dis-cussions. I and John Davidson have been assigned the chief responsibility for representing Brownsville's interests in such discussions. I will be happy to discuss this with you at your earliest convenience. l Sincerely yours, George Spiegel GS/nzb cc: Mr. Robert E. Roundtree, PUB, Brewnsville John W. Davidsen, Esq. Michael J.
