V. Parties And Service List

We name the three largest investor-owned electric utilities as respondents in this rulemaking: PG&E, SDG&E and Edison. In addition, any of the small or multi-jurisdictional investor-owned utilities under our jurisdiction are encouraged to participate voluntarily in this rulemaking.

We will serve this OIR on members of the service lists for several related proceedings:

· A.00-11-038, et. al., the "rate stabilization" proceeding,

· R.00-10-002, the "interruptible" rulemaking,

· R.01-10-024, the "procurement" rulemaking, and

· R.94-04-031/I.94-04-032, the electric restructuring docket.

Within 15 days of the date of mailing of this order, any person or representative of an entity interested in monitoring or participating in this rulemaking should send a request to the Commission's Process Office, 505 Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco, California, 94102 (or ALJ_Process@cpuc.ca.gov) asking that his or her name be placed on the service list. The service list shall be posted on the Commission's web site, www.cpuc.ca.gov, as soon as it is practical.

Any party interested in participating in this investigation who is unfamiliar with the Commission's procedures should contact the Commission's Public Advisor's Office in Los Angeles at (213) 649-4782 or in San Francisco at (415) 703-2074, (866) 836-7875 (TTY - toll free) or (415) 703-5282 (TTY), or send an e-mail to public.advisor@cpuc.ca.gov.
