Pursuant to § 1807, the Commission directs PG&E, SDG&E, and SCE to allocate payment responsibility among themselves. With respect to the award associated with D.06-07-029 for the amount of $53,608.96, this allocation shall be based upon their California-jurisdictional electric revenues for the 2006 calendar year to reflect the year in which this decision was primarily litigated. With respect to the award associated with D.07-09-044 and D.07-12-052 for the amount of $211,502.43, this allocation shall be based upon their California-jurisdictional electric revenues for the 2007 calendar year to reflect the year in which these decisions were primarily litigated.

Consistent with previous Commission decisions, the Commission orders that interest be paid on the award amount (at the rate earned on prime, three-month commercial paper, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15) commencing on the 75th day after TURN filed each respective compensation request and continuing until full payment of the award is made. For the September 19, 2006 request, the 75th day is December 3, 2006. For the February 19, 2008 request, the 75th day is May 4, 2008.

The Commission reminds TURN that Commission staff may audit its records related to the award and that TURN must make and retain adequate accounting and other documentation to support all claims for intervenor compensation. TURN's records should identify specific issues for which it requested compensation, the actual time spent by each employee or consultant, the applicable hourly rates, fees paid to consultants, and any other costs for which compensation was claimed.
