How goes it? A question: I represent TECO. For several years they and other electric utilities have been relying on letter rulings from the IRS that they are entitled to a beneficial tax treatment for their activities related to converting their plants to synthetic fuel. Many millions were invested in reliance on this. A few weeks ago, the IRS, at least preliminarily, looks like it flipped on this issue. This is a big deal; bad because it's fundamentally unfair to reverse positions, bad because it favors reliance on foreign oil; bad for the natural environment. The CEO of TECO would like a 30-minute audience with Treasury Secretary Snow to voice the concerns of the industry. Any suggestions on how to get this done in D.C.? (This is not a veiled way to request the Governor's direct help.) Any channel that might prove useful up in D.C.? Any chance the Florida office in D.C. could help? Thanks. Let's get together.
