Order Instituting Rulemaking to establish policies and rules to ensure reliable, long-term supplies of Natural Gas to California. |
Summary: On April 20, 2006, Colin E. Cushnie, Director of Southern California Edison Company (SCE), met with Andrew Campbell, advisor to Cmmr. Chong, in San Francisco. Also present were Luis Pando, Manager of SCE, and Henry Hogo of the South Coast Air Quality Management District. Written material (attached to the notice) was used. Cushnie stated that the Commission should adopt SCE's proposal to implement an interim gas quality standard that is consistent with the quality of natural gas historically delivered to end-use customers of Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) and San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E). Cushnie urged the Commission to require a definitive study to determine whether it is more cost effective to require LNG facilities to deliver gas supplies to the SoCalGas/SDG&E system that is consistent with the historical heat content of natural gas deliveries to end-use customers or to require end-use customers to be responsible for making any necessary modifications to their gas-burning equipment to accept higher heat content gas. Hogo explained that higher heat content gas from LNG deliveries should not be allowed and that instead, the Commission should require SoCalGas and SDG&E to accept natural gas supplies with a heat content that is more reflective of historical gas deliveries to end-use customers in southern California. | |

Order Instituting Rulemaking to establish policies and rules to ensure reliable, long-term supplies of Natural Gas to California. |
Summary: AUGMENTATION REQUIRED. On April 24, 2006, Lee Stewart, Senior Vice President of Gas Operations for Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas), met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey. Written material (attached to the notice) was used. Also present were Richard Myers, Harvey Morris, and Dave Effross of the Commission, and Lad Lorenz, Vice President of Regulatory Affairs, Beth Musich, Regulatory Case Manager, and Marzia Zafar, CPUC Relations Manager, for SoCalGas and San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E). Stewart explained that SoCalGas' proposed gas quality standards are based on principles that would protect the health and safety of utility customers and employees and the operational integrity of the pipeline system. Steward stated that new gas quality standards should not be based on a specific end use, without consideration of their cost impact on all customers. Steward asserted that SoCalGas' proposed Wobbe range of 1290 - 1400 is supported by the interim recommendations in the National Gas Plus Report. Stewart stated that the Air Quality District's proposal of a maximum Wobbe of 1360 could eliminate up to 30 percent of existing supplies. Steward urged the Commission to not issue an overly restrictive standard. | |

Summary: On April 25, 2006, Jeanne Armstrong of the law firm Goodin MacBride Squeri Ritchie & Day, counsel for Kern River Gas Transmission Company (Kern), met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, in San Francisco. Also present were Michael Dunn, Vice President, Operations, IT and Engineering, Robert Checketts, Director of Operation, and Greg Snow, Manager, Business Development and Planning, for Kern. Written material (attached to the notice) was used. Kern representatives discussed how changes in required gas quality specifications for the Southern California Gas Company system and/or the Pacific Gas and Electric Company system, could detrimentally impact the flow of gas supply off of the Kern River system into California. Snow described the projected increase in Rocky Mountain supply over the next few years. Checketts explained that the new production tends to be gas which has a higher Wobbe Index number. Kern representatives explained that if the Commission sets a Wobbe number which is too restrictive, then it might prevent significant volumes of gas entering the state via Kern River. Checketts noted that the cost to the suppliers connected to Kern River of adding facilities could run in the hundreds of millions of dollars and that given such an option, suppliers might decide to send their gas to markets east of California. | |

Order Instituting Rulemaking to review policies concerning intrastate carrier access charges. |
Summary: On April 21, 2006, Cynthia Walker, Deputy Director of the Division of Ratepayer Advocates (DRA), met with Kelly Hymes, advisor to Cmmr. Grueneich, in San Francisco. Also present were Robert Lane and Lindsay Brown, advisors to Cmmr. Bohn, Natalie L. Billingsley, Program and Project Supervisor, and Natalie D. Wales, Staff Counsel, for the DRA; and William R. Nusbaum, Senior Telecommunications Attorney, for The Utility Reform Network (TURN). DRA and TURN stated that allowing `lost' revenues (from the elimination of the NIC and TIC) associated with the access minutes of ILEC-affiliated long distance carriers to be recovered through customer surcharges is not required by revenue neutrality, and would in fact be a windfall to ILECs. DRA and TURN stated further that any surcharges should apply not just to local exchange services, but also to toll and access services, and that the level of `lost' access revenues in five years should not form the basis for all future surcharges in light of the downward trend in the total number of access minutes. | |
