SUPPLEMENTAL ARGUMENT AND-REPRESENTATIONS OF TEX-LA t

i ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE OF TEXASf INC., AND TUGCO f

r It is obvious that the opposition of Brownsville is j

f premised on its grievances against Central Power and Light f

Company, a matter which is of no particular interest at this time to Tex-La Electric Cooperative of Texas, Inc., or TUGCO.

i What is of concern to these two parties however is that adequate l

t time be provided to permit their representatives to make progress l

l in settlement discussions and to avoid the adverse effect on i

potential settlement which may well arise from the advocacy i

positions which are normally stated in trial briefs.

j Accordingly, Tex-La Electric Cooperative of Texas, Inc.,

and TUGCO have a special interest above and beyond approaches j

to settlement ' involving interconnection issues; that interest j

i l

relates specifically to disputed matters between these two parties.

The undersigned counsel have been authoritzed to l

make the following representations in this connection.

Representatives of Tex-La and TP&L have been in nego-tiations regarding settlement since September 1979, following preliminary contacts dating back to the Spring of 1979.

There have been a number of meetings between engineering i

representatives on both sides, and documents pertaining to settlement principles have been exchanged, some as recently as the last two weeks.

Further exchanges of documents and meetings are 1

contemplated for later this month, subsequent to April 14.

[OQ @N'OCH ;

Although no agreement has been reached, both partie's are optimistic regardin'g the prospects for bringing these settlement talks to successful fruition in the relatively l

near future.

Additional time is required for this.
