For a certificate that the present and future public convenience and necessity requires or will require Edison to construct and operate a 220 kV double-circuit transmission line between the Kramer Substation and the Victor Substation in San Bernardino County. This decision approves an award of compensation to The Utility Reform Network (TURN) for substantial contributions to D00-06-054 but reduces the award by an amount to be determined. TURN sought compensation totaling $118,714.42, but a part of that request dealt with time spent pursuing alleged violations by Edison of Rule 1, the Commission's Code of Ethics. The Rule 1 allegations were withdrawn, and the record reflects that Rule 1 matters were not considered in the Commission's deliberations. We direct TURN to file a supplemental pleading recalculating the amount it requests without the Rule 1 fees and charges. Edison had protested TURN's request in part, including the request for Rule 1 recovery. This proceeding remains open pending a supplemental filing and issuance of a final decision.

SCE seeks authority to lease to Power Storage Industry, II, LLC (Power Storage) a 5.7-acre site located on a portion of SCE's Walnut 220/12-kilovolt (kV) substation in the City of Industry.

H-7	A89-03-026 - Southern California Edison Company (Edison). For a certificate that the present and future public convenience and necessity requires or will require Edison to construct and operate a 220 kV double-circuit transmission line between the Kramer Substation and the Victor Substation in San Bernardino County. This decision approves an award of compensation to The Utility Reform Network (TURN) for substantial contributions to D00-06-054 but reduces the award by an amount to be determined. TURN sought compensation totaling $118,714.42, but a part of that request dealt with time spent pursuing alleged violations by Edison of Rule 1, the Commission's Code of Ethics. The Rule 1 allegations were withdrawn, and the record reflects that Rule 1 matters were not considered in the Commission's deliberations. We direct TURN to file a supplemental pleading recalculating the amount it requests without the Rule 1 fees and charges. Edison had protested TURN's request in part, including the request for Rule 1 recovery. This proceeding remains open pending a supplemental filing and issuance of a final decision.
