THEREFORE IT IS ORDERED THAT:

1. Advice Letter 1249-E is approved, noting that it was revised by a subsequent advice letter filing as authorized by D.00-12-024.

2. Advice Letters 1254-E and 1260-E-A are approved with the bill format and customer notice modifications described in this Resolution.

3. Advice Letter 1264-E-A which requests authority to include DA customers in the expanded rate stabilization plan adopted in D.00-09-040 is denied.

4. Beginning no later than its April 2001 billing cycle, SDG&E shall display the following information each month on the bills of all customers who currently receive, have received (i.e., customers who have switched from bundled to DA service since implementation of AB 265), or may become eligible to receive (e.g., DA customers who may switch to bundled service), the Electric Energy Rate Adjustment (EERA) and the Retroactive Rate Ceiling Adjustment (RRCA):

-The current month's EERA;

-The total net deferred amount through the current month which equals the RRCA credit, plus the sum of all prior months' and the current month's EERA, plus all accrued interest, minus any optional customer payments received to date which may be used to reduce the total deferred amount.

5. No customer will be liable for future recovery including carrying charges of fully paid monthly electricity bills or portions thereof including directly associated carrying charges.

6. Within 10 days of the effective date of this Resolution, SDG&E shall file an advice letter showing a sample bill containing the information required by this Order. This advice letter shall include a draft informational letter to customers explaining this new billing information. The draft informational letter shall be reviewed by Energy Division, ORA, and the Public Advisor's office. This advice letter shall become effective on April 1, 2001, subject to Energy Division's finding that it is compliant with this Order.

7. SDG&E shall file an advice letter within 10 days of the effective date of this Resolution to modify its definition of "Energy Rate Ceiling" (ERC) shown in its tariff Rule 1 to clearly state that the ERC does not apply to Direct Access customers. This advice letter shall be effective on today's date subject to Energy Division determining that it is compliant with this Order.

8. The protests of TPC on ALs 1254-E, 1264-E, and 1264-E-A and Scripps' protest on AL 1254-E all apply to AL 1264-E-A. To the extent these protests oppose SDG&E's plan to include DA customers in the expanded rate stabilization plan adopted in D.00-09-040, they are granted. All other aspects of these protests are denied.

9. The protest of Mr. Cornett on AL 1264-E-A is granted to the extent that it opposes SDG&E's plan to include DA customers in the expanded rate stabilization plan adopted in D.00-09-040. All other aspects of Mr. Cornett's protest are denied.

10. ORA's protest to AL 1264-E is granted to the extent that this Order adopts the review procedure recommended by ORA for the draft informational letter to SDG&E's customers required herein. ORA's protest is denied in all other respects.

11. Utility.com's suggested change to the billing information proposed by SDG&E in AL 1264-E as modified in AL 1264-E-A, is denied as being moot because this Order denies AL 1264-E-A.

1.

This Resolution is effective today.

I certify that the foregoing resolution was duly introduced, passed and adopted at a conference of the Public Utilities Commission of the State of California held on February 22, 2001; the following Commissioners voting favorably thereon:
