Investigation on the Commission's own motion into whether existing standards and policies of the Commission regarding drinking water quality adequately protect the public health and safety with respect to contaminants such as volatile organic compounds, Perchlorate, MTBEs , and whether those standards and policies are being uniformly complied with by Commission regulated utilities.

Summary: On August 31, 2000, Evelyn Kahl Elsesser, attorney for Aerojet-General Corporation, Huffy Corporation, and Wynn Oil Company ("Responding Parties), participated in a telephone conference with Cmmr. Bilas. At the same time, Christine Jun, counsel to the Responding Parties, joined the conference in a meeting with Julie Halligan, advisor to Cmmr. Bilas, held in San Francisco. Written materials (attached to the notice) were used. Elsesser explained that the record is complete for the period after the institution of a maximum contaminant level (MCL) for any particular contaminant. Elsesser noted that there are time periods prior to establishment of MCLs for which testing data is not complete. Elsesser urged the Commission to specify that the Order Instituting Rulemaking instituted in the Final Opinion should request all data on water quality monitoring and testing not already in the record in this proceeding. Elsesser urged that unless the Commission attempt to examine a complete record, the Commission risks ceding jurisdiction to make conclusions on water quality during the 25 year review period to the courts, before which civil litigation against some regulated water utilities is pending.
