SUMMARY: On November 28, 2007, Michael Alcantar, counsel to the Cogeneration
Association of California and the Energy Producers and Users Coalition,
(jointly, CAC/EPUC) met with Andrew Schwartz, advisor to Pres. Peevey in San
Francisco. The issues addressed were the terms and conditions for extension
contracts pursuant to D.07-09-040, and procedural options to secure CPUC
direction regarding the extension contracts. Two specific extension contract
situations were discussed. The first set was to seek specificity on the
designation of "price" terms (versus "non-price" terms, and particularly
performance provisions) that could be modified in the extension agreements. The
second set was to address the options for previously terminate firm capacity
CHP/QF resources to reinstate firm capacity terms and conditions. Contact

SUMMARY: On September 18, 2007 Bruce C. Foster, Senior Vice President of
Southern California Edison Company (SCE) met with Cmmr. Grueneich in San
Francisco. Also present were Theresa Cho, advisor to Cmmr. Grueneich and
Michael Hoover, Director of Regulatory Affairs of SCE. Written materials
(attached to the notice) were used. Foster explained that the energy payment
formula in the Alternate Proposed Decision (Alternate) produces prices that
exceed SCE's short-run avoided cost (SRAC) of energy. Hoover stated that the
firm capacity price in the Alternate is too high and exceeds SCE's avoided cost
of capacity. Hoover explained that the $157/kW-year MPR capacity price used in
the Alternate should be reduced by at least $55/kWyear to account for savings
gained from running in the energy market. The firm capacity price should also
be reduced by an additional $10/kW-year. Hoover also stated that there is no
need to require standard offer contracts, particularly for QFs because QFs have
many options for selling their power, including utility all-source
solicitations, renewables solicitations, bilateral contracts and other
load-serving entities. Contact Person: Henry Romero, telephone: (626) 302-4124,

SUMMARY: On September 17, 2007 Beth Vaughan, Executive Director of the
California Cogeneration Council (CCC) participated in a conference call with
Andrew Schwartz, advisor to Pres. Peevey. R. Thomas Beach, consultant to the
CCC; David Hermanson, a member of the CCC employed by Primary Energy; Jerry R.
Bloom and Joseph M. Karp of Winston & Strawn, LLP, counsel for the CCC also
participated in the conference call. CCC representatives stated that the
Alternate Proposed Decision (Alternate PD) places too much weight on the NP-15
and SP-15 spot market prices and proposed they account for no more than one
third of the SRAC formula, with the existing administrative values making up
the difference. CCC representatives proposed that the Commission require the
utilities to employ the updated time of use ("TOU") factors adopted by the
Commission for energy efficiency and demand response programs. CCC
representatives explained that Pacific Gas and Electric Company's (PG&E)
City-gate prices should be used in PG&E'S new SRAC formula. The CCC
representatives stated the 2007 MPR should serve as the basis for the combined
cycle gas turbine fixed costs of the firm capacity price calculation. Contact

SUMMARY: On September 17, 2007, Michel Peter Florio, Senior Attorney for The
Utility Reform Network (TURN), met with Theresa Cho, advisor to Cmmr.
Grueneich, in San Francisco. Florio summarized TURN's major concerns with the
Alternate Proposed Decision (APD) of Commissioner Grueneich. Florio stated that
it would be difficult and speculative to forecast the energy profits that a
proxy combined cycle plant would earn in the market over the ten-year period of
the firm capacity contract adopted by the APD. Florio recommended that the
Commission adopt a capacity payment structure for the firm contract that did
not contain a deduction for such energy profits and likewise base the energy
payment under the contract on a fixed heat rate equal to that of the proxy
unit. Florio also stated that the factors cited in the APD as justifying a
50/50 average of a market-based heat rate have been declining. Contact Person:

SUMMARY: On September 11, 2007 Beth Vaughan, Executive Director of the
California Cogeneration Council (CCC) met with Robert Kinosian, advisor to
Cmmr. Bohn. Also present were David Hermanson, a member of the CCC employed by
Primary Energy; R. Thomas Beach, consultant to CCC; and Jerry R. Bloom of
Winston & Strawn, LLP, council for the CCC. CCC representatives expressed their
support for the Alternate Proposed Decision (Alternate PD), but noted that it
places too much weight on the NP- 15 and SP-15 spot market prices. CCC
representatives proposed that the Commission require the utilities to employ,
on an interim basis, the updated time of use ("TOU") factors for energy
efficiency and demand response programs, and revisit these interim TOU factors
in the technical workshop that the Alternate PD requires 60 days after the
Commission's decision. CCC representatives also explained that PG&E City-gate
prices should be used in PG&EYS new SRAC formula rather than the arbitrary
50150 mix of Malin and Topock gas. CCC representatives stated the 2007 MPR
should serve as the basis for the combined cycle gas turbine fixed costs of the
firm capacity price calculation. Contact Person: Jerry R. Bloom, telephone:

SUMMARY: On September 11, 2007 Bruce C. Foster, Senior Vice President of
Southern California Edison Company (SCE) met with Pres. Peevey in San
Francisco. Also present were Andrew Schwartz, advisor to Pres. Peevey; and
Michael Hoover, Director of Regulatory Affairs of SCE. Written materials
(attached to the notice) were used. Foster discussed SCE's concerns with the
Alternate Proposed Decision of Cmmr. Grueneich issued on August 20, 2007
(Alternate). Foster explained that the energy payment formula in the Alternate
produces prices that exceed SCE's short-run avoided cost (SRAC) of energy.
Foster stated that the firm capacity price in the Alternate is too high and
exceeds SCE's avoided cost of capacity. Foster explained that the $157/kW-year
MPR capacity price used in the Alternate should be reduced by at least
$55/kWyear to account for savings gained from running in the energy market. The
firm capacity price should also be reduced by an additional $10/kW-year to
account for the residual value associated with the MPR's 20-year annualization
of a proxy unit that has a 30-year economic/operating life. Foster explained
that QFs have many options for selling their power, including utility
all-source solicitations, renewables solicitations, bilateral contracts and
other load-serving entities. Contact Person: Henry Romero, telephone: (626)

Peevey; Jerry R. Bloom of Winston & Strawn, LLP, counsel for HL Power. HL Power
expressed continuing concerns with the Proposed Decisions ("PDs") and stated
that the PDs, as currently drafted, would have a significantly adverse impact
on HL Power's operation of its biomass qualifying facility and while the
alternative proposed decision ("APD") by Commr. Grueneich was a vast
improvement over the original Proposed Decision, there were several issues that
needed additional attention. HL Power asked: (1) that the 50150 split between
NP151SP15 and administratively determined heat rates in the APD be changed to a
one third two third split, respectively; (2) that PG&E's time of use periods be
corrected in the forthcoming Commission decision, rather than being delayed for
further consideration, and (3) that the city gas plus transportation be used
for the gas pricing utilized in PG&E payment formula. Contact Person: Jerry R.

the short run avoided cost (SRAC) of energy should be based on data for a
robust market from a transparent source. The methodology in the Revised
Proposed Decision (PD) does not satisfy this, criteria because there is no
publication that provides the 24 months of forward electricity prices required
by the Revised PD. SCE's proposed SRAC methodology uses historical SP-15
day-ahead prices and relies on transparent, market-based data that SCE actually
uses to dispatch resources. Foster also stated that there is no need to require
Standard Offer contracts for expiring or new QF resources. Contact Person:

California Edison Company (SCE) had a telephone conversation with Nancy Ryan,
advisor to Pres. Peevey. Foster discussed the Revised Proposed Decision (PD) of
ALJ Halligan on Future Policy and Pricing for Qualifying Facilities (QFs).
Foster stated that the short run avoided cost (SRAC) methodology in the Revised
PD may not be able to be implemented because it relies on using estimates of
two-year forward transactions for power and gas to calculate a heat rate. In
contrast, SCE's SRAC relies on transparent, market-based data that SCE uses to
actually dispatch resource; therefore, SP-15 day-ahead prices represent SCE's
true short-run avoided cost of energy. Foster explained that MRTU is scheduled
for completion next year when SCE will petition the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (FERC) to be relieved of the PURPA must-take obligation. Foster
further explained that the 20 MW cap is consistent with FERC's recently adopted
PURPA regulations. Contact Person: Henry Romero, telephone: (626) 302-4124,

SUMMARY: On June 15, 2007, Douglas Kerner, attorney for the Independent Energy
Producers Association (IEP), met with Andrew Schwartz, advisor to Pres. Peevey
in San Francisco. Also present was Steven K. Kelly, Policy Director for IEP.
The representatives expressed concern over the many flaws in the Proposed
Decision (PD) ranging from legal, technical, and implementation problems and
the PD is technically flawed in a number of areas for failing to adequately and
precisely explain how key price factors will be determined. The representatives
also stated that the PD has numerous gaps or is silent on the implementation of
its proposal, including issues such as development, timing of updates,
potential for protest, and review of mechanisms that will need to be in place

Southern California Edison Company, met with Andrew Schwartz, advisor to Pres.
Peevey in San Francisco. Written materials (attached to the notice) were used.
Hoover discussed the Proposed Decision (PD) of ALJ Halligan explaining that the
PD makes significant progress by basing short run avoided cost energy payments
on a market-based formula. Hoover also explained that the PD has flaws that, if
left uncorrected, will produce above-market payments in excess of avoided cost
and impose long-term contracting burdens on utility bundled service customers
that will not be shared by customers of other retail providers.

Francisco. Also present was Nora Sheriff, counsel for EPUC. Written materials
(attached to the notice) were used. The meeting was to discuss EPUC's Petition
for Modification of D.04-12-048. Kahl stated that the nonbypassable charges
(NBC) are now being used to recover ongoing procurement costs in the normal
course of utility business, and emphasized that the mounting NBC obligations
unnecessarily discourage the development of new combined heat and power
systems. Kahl urged that the Commission grant the EPUC petition. Sheriff
discussed the more recent NBC problems arising from SCE's petition to modify
D.06-07-029 and explained that customer generation departing load should not
pay net capacity cost associated with power purchase agreements.

Cogeneration Council (CCC) met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Pres. Peevey in San
Francisco. Also present were Jerry Bloom, counsel, and Tom Beach, consultant,
to CCC, Shakil Rahman representing Delta Power Company and Barry Lovell
representing Berry Petroleum Company. Wade McCartney, Energy Division,
participated by phone. Written materials (attached to the notice) were used.
Bloom expressed CCC's concern regarding communications during an ex parte
meeting between Pres. Peevey¿s staff and representatives of Pacific Gas and
Electric Company (PG&E) and Southern California Edison Co. on January 17, 2007.
The parties discussed the comparisons between SRAC prices and prices under the
PG&E/IEP settlement. Beach stated that the comparison of PG&E's winter SRAC
energy prices to NP-15 market prices and PG&E/IEP settlement prices were
misleading. The parties also discussed CCC's position in the QF case and CCC's
view that cogeneration QFs need to get reasonable options for contract renewals
when their existing contracts expire.

SUMMARY: On December 18, 2006, Michael Alcantar, counsel to the Cogeneration
Association of California and the Energy Producers and Users Coalition
(CAC/EPUC), met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Pres. Peevey, in San Francisco.
Also present were Rod Aoki, counsel, and Donald Schoenbeck, consultant, to
CAC/EPUC, and Kelly Lucas and Rick Williams, representing the Coalinga
Cogeneration Company, Sargent Canyon Cogeneration Company and Salinas River
Cogeneration Company. Written materials (attached to this notice) were used.
Key actions to preserve and encourage combined heat and power (CHP) facilities
were discussed. The parties noted that the lack of a clear long term policy for
CHP is having a detrimental effect upon both the ability of existing CHP
projects to continue operations after their contracts expire; as well as the
ability of new projects to come on-line. The parties also discussed critical
importance of fair pricing and contractual terms and conditions for CHP
facilities. Finally, the parties emphasized the need for the Commission to
issue its decision on long term qualifying facilities policy and avoided cost.

PG&E-IEPA Settlement Agreement. De Rosa emphasized the importance of reducing
SRAC prices so that they reflect PG&E's true avoided cost. Laszlos explained
how thermal efficiencies vary with different technologies. De Rosa explained
that lower QF prices will not threaten electric reliability or the Commission's
GHG emission reduction goals

On May 16, 2006, R. Thomas Beach, a consultant to the California Cogeneration
Council (CCC), met with Robert Lane, advisor to Cmmr. Bohn, and Belinda Gatti,
advisor to Cmmr. Brown, in two separate meetings in San Francisco. Also present
were Jerry R. Bloom and Joseph M. Karp of White & Case, LLP, counsel for the
CCC. An excerpt from Mr. Beach's opening testimony (attached to the notice) was
sent to Robert Lane after the meeting. Bloom and Karp explained that the joint
settlement proposed by Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) and Independent
Energy Producers (IEP) is not a true settlement that aligns with the
Commission's traditional understanding of settlements. Bloom and Karp explained
that the arrangement between PG&E and IEP is, rather, a set of bilateral
agreements that do not resolve any key issues of these proceedings. Bloom and
Karp also explained that the bilateral agreements involving a few gas-fired
Qualifying Facilities (QFs) for which PG&E and IEP seek approval are not
generally applicable to other QFs, and thus should not be considered as a basis
for a decision in this proceeding.

On May 10, 2006, Michael Alcantar, counsel to the Cogeneration Association of
California (CAC) and the Energy Producers and Users Coalition (EPUC), met with
Pres. Peevey in San Francisco. Also present were Rami Kahlon, advisor to Pres.
Peevey, and Nora Sheriff and Rod Aoki, counsel to CAC/EPUC. Written material
(attached to the notice) was used. CAC/EPUC discussed the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company (PG&E) and the Independent Energy Producers Association (IEP)
Settlement Agreement. CAC/EPUC indicated no opposition to the approval of the
settlement, but noted that it should not be characterized as precedent for any
purpose related to avoided cost pricing or for long term Qualifying Facility
(QF) contract policy issues. Alcantar and Sheriff explained that the PG&E-IEP
settlement did not address the need for a Commission-established long-term
policy for cogeneration QFs with appropriate pricing. Alcantar discussed the
necessity of long term, standard offer contracts with reasonable terms and
conditions to sustain existing and encourage new cogeneration QFs. Alcantar
also noted the potential deleterious impact the loss of existing cogeneration
QFs and the failure to encourage new cogeneration QFs would have on Governor
Schwarzenegger's Climate Action Team goals for CO2 reductions.

present were Rami Kahlon, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, Roy Kuga, Vice President,
Energy Supply, Frank DeRosa, Director, Power Contracts, John Pappas, Manager,

for PG&E, and Steven Kelly on behalf of the Independent Energy Producers
Association (IEPA). DeRosa described some of the key terms and conditions of
the PG&E-IEPA Settlement Agreement (SA) regarding QF pricing and policy. DeRosa
explained that the SA applied only to QFs that voluntarily execute contract
amendments and that it represented a fair compromise of the parties' positions.
DeRosa stated that PG&E anticipates that savings from the SA will range from
$100-$200 million annually. Kelly described why the SA was strongly supported
by IEPA's members. Jacobson said that it was critical to obtain Commission
approval of the contract amendments prior to the September 1 deadline.

On February 8, 2006, Erik Jacobson, Chief, Regulatory Relations, Pacific Gas
and Electric Company (PG&E), met with Rancy Ryan, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, in
San Francisco. Also present were Lainie Motamedi of the Division of Strategic
Planning of the Commissions and Hal La Flash, Director, Integrated Resource
Planning, for PG&E. Jacobson stated that PG&E supports a comprehensive,
market-based national program to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
Jacobson expressed concern that the proposed single-state, single-industry GHG
program would unfairly discriminate against investor-owned utilities. Jacobson
recommended that the Commission defer implementation of the draft decision (DD)
at least until there is more certainty over expected GHG legislation. La Flash
noted that the Climate Action Team report will be submitted to the Governor and
Legislature soon and the Commission should not adopt the DD prior to issuance
of that report. Jacobson stated that the Commission should not adopt a
penalty-only compliance mechanism and that the DD should be modified so that
the incentive mechanism provides a balanced opportunity for reward and risk of
penalty. Jacobson and La Flash suggested that the detailed requirements for
suppliers to register with the California Climate Action Registry be addressed
in the implementation workshops and that offsets not be limited by type or
location.

San Francisco. Also present was David Marcus, consultant for CUE. Joseph and
Marcus explained the comments by CUE on the Capacity Markets White Paper.
Joseph and Marcus stated that a capacity market was inconsistent with and would
have to replace the resource adequacy requirements, that it would not likely
result in 15-17 percent margin, that it would be very complex, that it would
require locational markets with many different capacity products and would not
result in new generation. Joseph also stated that the current RFO process was
resulting in competitive procurement.

On December 8, 2005, Erik Jacobson, Chief, Regulatory Relations, Pacific Gas
and Electric Company (PG&E), met with Rami Kahlon, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, in
San Francisco. Jacobson described PG&E's recommendation to modify D04-12-048
regarding the capital cost cap structure and sharing mechanism for
utility-owned generation projects. Jacobson emphasized the importance of
allowing traditional cost of service ratemaking for utility-owned generation.
Jacobson explained that the cost cap for utility-owned generation should be
eliminated. Jacobson noted, that if the cost cap is not eliminated, the
Commission has already indicated its intent to reexamine the extent to which
there will be customer/shareholder sharing of cost overruns and underruns for
utility-owned generation in the 2006 long-term procurement plan proceeding.

Peevey also present was Julie Fitch, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, and with Cmmr.
Brown - David Gamson, advisor to Cmmr. Brown. Roy Kuga, Vice President, Gas and
Electric Supply, for PG&E, participated in both meetings. A list of attendees
is attached to the notice. Written material (attached to the notice) was used.
Kuga urged the Commission to pursue a multi-year resource adequacy requirement
(RAR). Kuga indicated that it was important for the Commission to define the
exemptions to the 7x24 availability requirement. Kuga expressed concern that
Reliability Must Run Must Offer Obligation and Resource Adequacy payments could
potentially duplicate one another. Kuga recommended that the Commission clarify
that Department of Water Resources contracts are excluded from the phase out
percentages for liquidated damages contracts. Kuga stated that the RAR should
extend into real-time. Kuga expressed support for the Commission's decision to
defer implementation of local capacity requirements until 2007. Kuga proposed
that the draft decision be clarified with respect to the allocation of intertie
capacity.

Principal, Strategic Consulting, for PG&E. Jacobson stated that PG&E strongly
recommends that the Commission move expeditiously towards instituting a
multi-year Resource Adequacy Requirement (RAR). Lawlor asserted that the
proposed decision should be modified to explicitly state that Department of
Water Resources contracts are excluded from the adopted portfolio share
limitations for liquidated damages contracts. Greif explained that PG&E was
concerned over the exception rules that would be applied to determine whether
or not an LSE complied with the top-down RAR. Greif explained that reliance on
a system peak RAR was inconsistent with the Commission's resource planning
requirements.

On June 24, 2005, Katie Kaplan, Manager of State Policy Affairs, Independent
Energy Producers Association (IEPA), met with Stephen St. Marie, advisor to
Cmmr. Bohn, in San Francisco. Also present were Aaron Johnson, advisor to Cmmr.
Grueneich, Maryam Ebke, Acting Director of the Division of Strategic Planning,
Philippe Auclair, Advisor, Policy and Planning, who joined in by the telephone,
Brian Cragg, attorney for IEPA, and Brian Theaker of Williams, a member of
IEPA. Cragg noted that in the context of the Resource Adequacy Requirement, the
emphasis on capacity of the "top-down" approach would help ensure that power
was available to meet California's needs at times when capacity is tight, while
the "bottom-up" approach would be most vulnerable when capacity was in short
supply. Kaplan added that in other areas of the country, firm liquidated
damages contracts had in fact been liquidated at times of high demand. Theaker
noted that the payment of liquidated damages, rather than the actual delivery
of energy, was an express contractual remedy under firm liquidated damages
contracts, not a breach of these contracts. Theaker and Kaplan stated that the
emphasis of the Resource Adequacy Requirement should be on the recovery of the
fixed costs of generation resources, and California electricity markets as
currently structured would not produce prices that would cover the costs of
investing in new generation.

or implicitly call for the immediate creation of a bilaterally traded
capacity-only product for Load Serving Entities (LSEs) to procure to
demonstrate compliance with the Commission's adopted Resource Adequacy
requirements. Cushnie indicated that the immediate creation of a capacity-only
product without the centrally administered market structure and safeguards
found in the Eastern United States' capacity markets would expose customers and
LSEs to undue risk. Cushnie stated that SCE is not opposed to capacity markets
but urges that the Commission consider the creation of a capacity market in the
context of Assigned Commissioner Ruling on this issue.

and Fong Wan, Vice President, Power Contracts and Electric Resource
Development, Frank De Rosa, Director, Power Contracts, and Erik Jacobson,
Chief, Regulatory Relations, for PG&E. Written material (attached to the
notice) was used. Richard stated that while qualifying facilities (QFs) are an
important part of PG&E's resource mix, their cost exceeds the cost of PG&E's
other procurement options. Richard indicated that the Commission's Short-Run
Avoided Cost (SRAC) methodology is outdated and not well correlated to PG&E's
true avoided cost. Wan said that day-ahead, NP-15 firm market prices are an
appropriate measure of PG&E's true SRAC. Richard explained that QFs with
expiring contracts should compete in PG&E's all-source solicitations and that
this will reduce QF capacity prices to market levels. Wan and De Rosa stated
that there is a large amount of existing and proposed electric supply available
at competitive prices.

Commission's current cost allocation methodology for the Department of Water
Resources (DWR) power charges would ensure that each IOU's customers would
continue to receive their allocated share of the above-market costs associated
with the DWR contracts. SCE also explained that it would not oppose a
reallocation of the Sunrise Power Company contract to SCE's customers. SCE also
offered a second alternative proposal in which the Sempra contract would be
allocated to San Diego Gas & Electric Company's customers and all of the
Williams contract would be allocated to SCE's customers.

On April 14, 2005, Ed Guiles, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of San Diego
Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) and Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas),
met with Pres. Peevey in San Francisco. Julie Fitch, advisor to Pres. Peevey,
attended the meeting via videoconference. Also present were Debbie Reed,
President and Chief Operational Officer, and Lee Schavrien, Vice President of
Regulatory Affairs, for SDG&E and SoCalGas. Guiles discussed the January 28,
2005 ruling regarding potential reallocation of the existing Department of
Water Resources (DWR) contracts, including the possible reallocation of the
Sempra Generation contract to Southern California Edison Company. Guiles
explained that SDG&E opposes this allocation. Reed described SDG&E's
`minimalist' alternative allocation proposal. Schavrien added that SDG&E's
minimalist proposal would resolve several issues in this docket as well as the
DWR cost allocation proceeding.

Peevey, and Alvin S. Pak, Director of State Regulatory Affairs for Global. The
representatives of Global discussed the assigned Commissioner's ruling of
January 28, 2005. The representatives of Global indicated that reallocation of
the SG-CDWR contracts to San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) could pose
several operational issues and burdens for SDG&E that Edison, because of its
much greater size in relation to the scale of the contract, did not face. The
representatives of Global explained that while these issues and burdens could
potentially be resolved, it did not appear to Global that any economic benefits
would accrue to ratepayers, the utilities or the state from reallocation, in
any event.

SCE representatives discussed the draft decision and expressed SCE's concern
that requiring load serving entities to maintain reserves levels equal to 15-17
percent of the amount required to meet a monthly peak, in every hour of a
month, is unnecessary to ensure reliability and is not cost effective. SCE
stated further that if the Commission decided that an all-hours resource
adequacy requirement was necessary, the appropriate level of reserves would be
an amount equal to 15-17 percent of each hour's load.

present were Julie Fitch, advisor to Pres. Peevey, and Brian Cragg,
representing IEP. Written material (attached to the notice) was used. Kelly
urged support for the key principles that were adopted in the recent
procurement decision. Kelly stated that the principles include an open,
transparent, competitive bidding, all-source solicitations, bidders held to
bids, and an independent evaluator. Kelly and Cragg noted that independent
generators face a wide array of asymmetrical incentives that work against them
in procurement. Kelly and Cragg urged the Commission to correct procurement
incentives so that all projects, whether sponsored by utilities or generators,
can compete on a fair basis.

Group formerly known as Constellation Power Source (CPS). Tierney discussed
the proposed decision (PD) of ALJ Brown. Tierney articulated Strategic and
CNE's concerns that the utilities have "under-forecasted" potential load
migration due to the development of community choice aggregation and re-opening
of the direct access market, that the utilities will overprocure as a result,
and that the PD authorizes the utilities to impose exit fees on departing
customers to recover their stranded costs. Tierney also discussed CPS' "slice
of load" proposal as a means of addressing future stranded costs concerns.

LATE FILED. On December 6, 2004, Bruce C. Foster, Vice President, Regulatory
Affairs of Southern California Edison Company (SCE), met with Julie Fitch,
advisor to Pres. Peevey, in San Francisco. Also present were Colin E. Cushnie,
Director of Regulatory Affairs of SCE, and Sheryl Carter, Director of Western
Energy Programs of the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC). Written
material (attached to the notice) was used. SCE's representatives expressed
concern regarding the proposed decision's (PD) adoption of a greenhouse gas
(GHG) bid evaluation adder for all of SCE's procurement activity. SCE expressed
that with a change in the decision to the application of the GHG adder, it will
support the PD's GHG adder policy. SCE stated that SCE and NRDC now support a
change to the PD that would apply the GHG adder to evaluation of new utility
commitments or contracts with terms greater than five years. SCE encouraged a
revision to the PD to indicate that the Commission was going to seek a much
broader application of GHG considerations. SCE expressed a willingness to work
at the legislature to develop a more board-based carbon policy. SCE's
representatives expressed concern that the final decision on SCE's long-term
procurement plan not preclude the continuation of SCE's current solicitation
for multi-year electrical capacity. SCE's representatives stated that all
utility customers should be responsible for stranded costs through a
non-bypassable wires charge for contracts that SCE enters into for the benefit
of all customers or for grid reliability.

Pres. Peevey, in San Francisco. Also present were Colin E. Cushnie, Director,
Regulatory Affairs, and Bruce C. Foster, Vice President, for Southern
California Edison Company (SCE). Carter indicated that, with SCE's change of
position to support the greenhouse gas (GHG) adder policy in the proposed
decision (PD) of ALJ Brown, NRDC supported the revised application of a GHG
adder to apply to long-term resource commitments that would require Commission
pre-approval. Carter noted that applying it to these long-term resource
commitments also simplifies implementation and would allow quicker application
of the GHG adder. Carter emphasized that the PD justified the application of a
GHG adder because of the financial risk associated with carbon emissions and
not as an externality value, and recommended that the PD language be clarified
to reflect this.

Cmmr. Brown, Colin E. Cushnie, Director, Regulatory Affairs of SCE, and Roy
Kuga, William Manheim, Ray Williams, and Erik Jacobson, Pacific Gas and
Electric Company (PG&E). Written material (attached to the notice) was used.
SCE representatives expressed general support for ALJ Brown's proposed decision
(PD). However, SCE requested that the PD be modified to explicitly permit CPCN
applications for certain utility projects. SCE requested that the PD be
modified to state that stranded costs incurred as the result of utility
commitments that benefit all customers be assessed to all customers, and not
just departing bundled load. SCE expressed concern that the PD's adoption of a
carbon adder could unnecessarily add costs to SCE's bundled customers without
any associated benefits. SCE requested that the Commission clarify what is
meant by the requirement that utilities procure the maximum feasible amount of
renewable energy. SCE also requested to change the requirement that
pre-approval be sought for all contracts with terms of three years or greater.
Finally, SCE agreed with PG&E that the PD should be modified to reflect a 30%
debt equivalence factor.

Douglas, and Lisa Paulo, of the Energy Division, Dan Adler of the Division of
Strategic Planning, and James H. Caldwell, Jr., Director of Renewable Policy
for PPM Energy, LLP. Written material (attached to the notice) was used. Myers
stated that CEERT fully supports the proposed decision's (PD) policy statements
that reflected the environmental and diversity value of renewables procurement
to the utilities¿ LTPPs and general electric generation procurement. Myers
expressed concern that the findings made by the PD did not adequately address
the shortcomings of the renewable procurement plans of Southern California
Edison Company and Pacific Gas and Electric Company. Myers stated that CEERT
believed that the PD had inappropriately deferred revisions to the utilities'
renewable plans to another proceeding. Myers noted that an endless deferral of
needed revisions of utility renewable procurement plans would undermine good
faith reliance on Commission's directives, as well as effective regulation, and
would place at risk the state's accelerated target of 20% renewable generation
by 2010. Myers emphasized the need for integrated renewables procurement and
transmission planning.

to procure 50% of new long-term commitments as utility-owned generation. Fong
also explained the need for adoption of a debt equivalence policy that allows

Affairs of Southern California Edison Company (SCE), met with David Gamson,

Director, Regulatory Affairs, of SCE. SCE representatives discussed ALJ
Fukutome's proposed decision (FPD) in SCE's Energy Resource Recovery Account
(ERRA) proceeding. Additionally, SCE's representatives discussed SCE's concerns
with ALJ Wetzell's proposed decision (WPD) on resource adequacy issues
(R04-04-003). SCE's representatives expressed concern that FPD improperly
expands the scope of the least-cost dispatch compliance showing that the
Commission previously ordered in its adoption of Standard of Conduct No. 4 in
each IOU's procurement plan. SCE's representatives also noted that FPD is
inconsistent with AB 57. SCE¿s representatives also expressed concern with WPD
on resource adequacy because it would accelerate the 15%-17% planning reserve
requirement from 2008 to 2006, without providing any market power mitigation
measures to protect customers. Further, SCE's representatives described why
liquidated damages contracts and DWR long-term power contracts should continue
to be allowed to count toward each IOU's planning reserve requirement.

Thomas P. Corr, SEGE Regulatory Policy Manager. Written material (attached to

from Resource Adequacy (RA) accounting eligibility prior to the availability of
a replacement product or market would hinder the ability of non-utility LSEs to
comply with the Commission's proposed RA counting protocols; will certainly
increase costs to those providing DA service; and may threaten the ability of
some non-utility LSEs to continue to provide DA service, or to expand such
service. Pak and Corr proposed that the Firm LD contract issue be deferred to
Phase 2 of the RA proceeding.

Procurement, and Joe Lawlor, Energy Trading Consultant, Gas and Electric Supply
Strategic Consulting, PG&E. Written material (attached to the notice) was used.
Lawlor and Jeung stated that system contracts with liquidated damage provisions
should be eligible to count as qualified capacity, as long as they are limited
to no more than 25 percent of a LSE's total MW need. Lawlor and Jeung explained
why it is not feasible to require a demonstration that the generator's asset
portfolio is not oversold. Jacobson emphasized that the Department of Water
Resources contracts should be provided full value and should not be subject to
a deliverability test. Lawlor explained PG&E's concern with both ALJ Wetzell's
proposed decision and Cmmr. Lynch's alternate.

Description:
On September 24, 2004, Erik Jacobson, Chief, Regulatory Relations, Pacific Gas
and Electric Company (PG&E), met with Trina Horner, advisor to Cmmr. Lynch, in
San Francisco. Also present were Julie Fitch, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, and
Antonio Alvarez, Manager, Gas and Electric Supply, and Joe Lawlor, Energy
Trading Consultant, Gas and Electric Supply Strategic Consulting, PG&E.
Jacobson stated that the proposed decision should be modified to provide the
utilities with authority to procure resources for terms up to five years.
Alvarez explained PG&E's recommendation that minimum monthly energy
requirements should be satisfied on a portfolio basis rather than an individual
unit basis. Alvarez noted that the draft decision's 0.89 percent cap on demand
response limited PG&E to about 150 MW of demand response and contradicted
previous demand response targets provided by the Commission. Lawlor stated
that system contracts with liquidated damage provisions should be eligible to
count as qualified capacity, as long as they are limited to no more than 25
percent of a LSE's total MW need. Lawlor also said that the Department of Water
Resources contracts that are not unit specific should not be subject to a
deliverability test.

Description:
On June 3, 2004, Evelyn Kahl, counsel to the Cogeneration Association of
California (CAC), met with Julie Fitch, advisor to Pres. Peevey, in San
Francisco. Kahl raised CAC's concern over the possibility of loosing 1100 MW
of existing cogeneration resources in Southern California Edison Company's
(SCE) portfolio. Kahl explained that four existing qualifying facility
contracts will be expiring beginning in 2005. Kahl emphasized that currently
there are no rules or guidelines governing renewal of these contracts and
encouraged the Commission to take an active role to avoid loss of SCE existing
resource base in light of the state's evident need for generation.

On June 3, 2004, Jerry Bloom of White & Case LLP, attorneys for the California
Cogeneration Council (CCC), met with Julie Fitch, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, in
San Francisco. Also present was Lisa Cottle of White & Case LLP. Bloom and
Cottle discussed the status of CCC member companies' efforts to obtain
five-year Standard Offer 1 (SO1) contracts from California's investor-owned
utilities (Utilities). Bloom and Cottle explained that CCC members have not
been able to obtain a five-year SO1 contracts from any Utility, despite their
repeated requests. Bloom and Cottle discussed the CCC's concerns that the
Utilities are likely to impose unreasonable terms on qualifying facilities
(QFs) once they do finally make the five-year SO1 contracts available. Bloom
and Cottle discussed the need for long-term contracts for existing and new QFs,
explaining that companies are making decisions now about whether to make
investments in their facilities. Bloom and Cottle noted that companies are
interested in investing in new cogeneration facilities, and are paying close
attention to California's QF policies in deciding whether to make those
investments.
