6. Award

We award TURN and UCAN $22,777.11 for their substantial contributions to D.03-07-032. Consistent with previous Commission decisions, we will order that interest be paid on the award amount (calculated at the three-month commercial paper rate), commencing the 75th day after TURN and UCAN filed this compensation request (the 75^th day was November 30, 2003) and continuing until full payment of the award is made.

The award is to be paid by SBC California as the regulated entity in this proceeding. The parties have asked that any award of compensation be paid directly to TURN in order to avoid administrative glitches in making a joint award. UCAN and TURN have agreed that TURN will forward to UCAN its share of the award. We will follow that procedure.
