a 10-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with Long Beach Generation, LLC (LBG) with a delivery period of August 1, 2007 through July 31, 2017.
D.07-01-041 granted SCE's request and ordered SCE to apply the cost sharing mechanism from D.06-07-029 and allocate the benefits and costs of the LBG PPA to all benefiting customers.1 D.07-04-049 denied the application filed jointly by The Utility Reform Network (TURN) and the Division of Ratepayer Advocates (DRA) for rehearing of D.07-01-041. CARE also filed an application for rehearing of D.07-01-041, but on April 26, 2007, CARE filed a motion requesting to withdraw its application for rehearing. This motion was granted and the proceeding was closed.
