Findings of Fact

1. In D.05-12-040, the Commission granted SCE's application for approval of its steam generator replacement program for SONGS.

2. The costs related to replacing and refurbishing certain components in the low and high-pressure turbines at SONGS were included in the cost of the steam generator replacement program.

3. SCE is now pursing a larger turbine repair program authorized in the decision on the 2007 general rate case, A.07-11-011, and included in the currently pending 2012 general rate case, A.10-11-015.

4. Modifying the authority in D.05-12-040 to exclude the $9.2 million, as estimated and adopted in 2004 dollars for the turbine work, will avoid double-collecting.

5. Ratepayers will be protected through whatever terms and conditions are found reasonable and adopted in A.10-11-015 to control the costs of a new larger turbine project.
