11. Service of OII, Creation of Service List, Filing of Documents, and Subscription Service

We will serve this OII on the Respondents and Interested Parties, on the service list (parties, state service list, and information-only category) in I.93-12-007 (the Commission's investigation into mobile telephone service and wireless communications) and on the service list in Rulemaking 09-06-019 (the California High Cost Fund B rulemaking).

11.1. Creation of Service List

The Commission will create an official service list for this proceeding, which will be available at http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/published/service_lists. We anticipate that the official service list will be posted before the first filing deadline in this proceeding. Before serving documents at any time during this proceeding, parties shall ensure they are using the most up-to-date official service list by checking the Commission's website prior to each service date.

The entities named as Respondents and Interested Parties are parties to the proceeding and must participate in this proceeding. Process Office shall place the person designated to receive service as the party's representative on the service list. A Respondent or Interested Party may designate a different representative as described in Section 11.2 below.

Except for the Respondents and Interested Parties, service of the OII does not confer party status in this proceeding upon any person or entity, and does not result in that person or entity being placed on the service list for this proceeding. Procedures are set forth below for those interested in participating in this proceeding or monitoring the OII.

You may request to become a party by filing a motion (Rule 1.4(a)(4)); you may also make an oral motion (Rule 1.4(a)(3)) at a public workshop or public participation hearing. To become a party, you must also comply with Rule 1.4(b). These Rules are in the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, which you can read on the Commission's website. If you want to be on the service list by the first filing deadline (June 24, 2011), you should file your motion to become a party, with the required Rule 1.4(b) showing, no later than June 15, 2011. Because of the expeditious nature of this proceeding, written motions to become a party should be served using electronic service pursuant to Rule 1.10. Responses to motions to become a party must be filed within 2 days of filing.

If you want to be added to the official service list as a non-party (that is, as State Service or Information Only), send your request to the Process Office. You may use e-mail (Process_Office@cpuc.ca.gov) or letter (Process Office, California Public Utilities Commission, 505 Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94102). Include the following information:

· Docket Number of this Investigation;

· Name (and party represented, if applicable);

· Postal Address;

· Telephone Number;

· E-mail Address; and

· Desired Status (State Service or Information Only).¹⁸

11.2. Updating Information

Once you are on the official service list, you must ensure that the information you have provided is up-to-date. To change your postal address, telephone number, e-mail address, or the name of your representative, send the change to the Process Office by letter or e-mail, and send a copy to everyone on the official service list.

11.3. Serving and Filing Documents

When you serve a document, use the official service list published at the Commission's website as of the date of service. You must comply with Rules 1.9 and 1.10 when you serve a document to be filed with the Commission's Docket Office.

The Commission encourages electronic filing and e-mail service in this Investigation. You may find information about electronic filing at http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/PUC/efiling. E-mail service is governed by Rule 1.10. If you use e-mail service, you must also provide a paper copy to the assigned Commissioner and ALJ. The electronic copy should be in Microsoft Word or Excel formats to the extent possible. The paper copy should be double-sided. E-mail service of documents must occur no later than 5:00 p.m. on the date that service is scheduled to occur.

If you have questions about the Commission's filing and service procedures, contact the Docket Office.

11.4. Subscription Service

This proceeding can also be monitored by subscribing in order to receive electronic copies of documents in this proceeding that are published on the Commission's website. There is no need to be on the service list in order to use the subscription service. Instructions for enrolling in the subscription service are available on the Commission's website at http://subscribecpuc.cpuc.ca.gov/.
