2. Background

This proceeding was initiated by the request of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) and PG&E Corporation for a limited exception from Rule V.E of the California Public Utilities Commission Affiliate Transaction Rules, to allow Peter Darbee, PG&E Corporation's Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and President to serve as PG&E's President and CEO, while the Companies continued to share regulatory affairs, lobbying, and legal services, for as long as PG&E Corporation did not have significant
non-Commission-regulated subsidiaries. The applicants concurrently filed a motion for an interim relief. Decision (D.) 08-09-013 granted the motion pending final disposition of the application. D.08-12-009 extended the temporary authorization for the waiver. On July 2, 2009, the applicants filed a motion to terminate the application based upon changed circumstances that rendered the matter moot. As the applicants explained, on July 1, 2009, PG&E's Board of Directors voted to appoint Christopher P. Johns to serve as PG&E's President effective August 1, 2009. With the appointment of Johns, Darbee, while continuing to serve as PG&E Corporation's Chairman of the Board, CEO, and President, ceased to be a key PG&E officer under the Affiliate Transaction Rule V.E. D.09-09-021 granted the applicants' motion.

L. Jan Reed actively participated in the proceeding from its inception and now claims compensation for his contributions to D.08-09-013, D.08-12-009, and D.09-09-021 under the Commission's intervenor compensation program
