2013 Budget (finance committee meeting)
Staff will present a Draft 2013 Budget for Board consideration in preparation for a November 27 budget workshop at 10 AM in the Kenai Board Room.

HEA/AEEC Loan Balances (finance committee meeting)
There will also be discussion of the cooperatives' indebtedness as of September 30, 2012.

Changes to HEA/AEEC Meetings Framework (operations committee meeting)
The Board is considering changing the times and format of future committee and Board meetings. One idea would involve combining AEEC committee with AEEC Board meetings and HEA committee with HEA Board meetings. The two would then be scheduled during the work day to eliminate the 5:30 evening meeting time.  

Alaska Railbelt Cooperative Transmission & Electric Company (operations committee meeting)
There also will be an update on ARCTEC and HEA participation.

Natural Gas Supply (HEA Board meeting)
HEA Member Tom Patmor will make a presentation on the Natural Gas Supply issue.
