Pacific Gas and Electric Company, in the 1999 annual transition cost proceeding. |
Summary: On September 30, 2003, Sabrina Chaw, Senior Regulatory Representative, Regulatory Relations, Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E), met with Ross LaJeunesse, advisor to Cmmr. Kennedy, in San Francisco. Also present were Manuel Ramirez, advisor to Cmmr. Wood, and Joe O'Flanagan, Director, Vice President and Controller, PG&E. Chaw stated that Cmmr. Lynch's alternate is unacceptable to PG&E as the alternate would require PG&E to place the Hunters Point Power Plant (HPPP) decommissioning costs in the Transition Cost Balancing Account, while ALJ's proposed decision would require that these costs be incorporated into PG&E's general rate case (GRC). Chaw stated that including the costs in the GRC obviates the need for a one-way balancing account for these costs. O'Flanagan stated that the alternate is also inconsistent with the GRC settlement. O'Flanagan also refuted the City and County of San Francisco's arguments that PG&E would profit from insurance proceeds if the HPPP decommissioning costs exceeded the original estimate. O'Flanagan stated further that if ratepayers funded 100% of the decommissioning cost they would be entitled to 100% of the gain and that this would be accomplished by crediting the proceeds to the decommissioning reserve. | |

Summary: On September 30, 2003, Greg Bass, Direct Access Operations Manager, Sempra Energy Solutions, representing the Alliance for Retail Energy Markets (AReM), met with David Gamson, advisor to Cmmr. Brown, in San Francisco. Also present were Mike Campbell, advisor to Cmmr. Lynch, Julie Fitch, advisor to Pres. Peevey, Manuel Ramirez, advisor to Cmmr. Wood, Mona Petrochko, Director of Government Affairs, Constellation New Energy, for AReM, and John Leslie, counsel, and Marcie Milner, Director of Regulatory Affairs, for Coral Power. Parties discussed the draft decision of ALJ Wong on AB 117 ESP registration requirements. AReM representatives noted that the DD was circulated without an opportunity for comment and that AB 117 was not self-implementing. AReM representatives stated that the Commission should have initiated a process to accommodate comments respecting the proper balance between the expanded registration requirements of AB 117 and other statutory provisions (e.g. Public Utilities Code Section 391(d)-(f)) that recognize that large commercial and industrial customers do not require the same consumer protections as small commercial and residential customers. AReM representatives expressed concern regarding four of the ESP registration requirements recommended in the DD: fingerprinting, disclosure of officers' felony convictions, reporting of the background of key personnel, and the security deposit. | |

Peck referred to the joint comments filed by Southern California Gas Company and San Diego Gas & Electric Company on September 25, 2003, and asked the Commission to consider amending the alternate decision to reflect those comments. | |

Summary: On October 1, 2003, Nancy Rader, Executive Director of California Wind Energy Association (CalWEA), met with Pres. Peevey in San Francisco. Also present was Julie Fitch, advisor to Pres. Peevey, and Joseph Karp of White & Case LLP, attorney for CalWEA. CalWEA representatives discussed the September 30, 2003 ALJ's ruling denying CalWEA's motion to modify the most recent request for proposals (RFP) by Southern California Edison Company (SCE). CalWEA representatives expressed disappointment with the Ruling, in that it did not directly order SCE to conform its RFP to the Assigned Commissioner's ruling issued in August and other legitimate grievances raised by CalWEA in its motion. CalWEA representatives stated that the Commission does not know how SCE will evaluate non-conforming bids. CalWEA representatives raised a concern that SCE could be trying to reach the 20% target under the renewable portfolio standards program without buying from wind generators from the Tehachapi area, so that SCE can then avoid building the transmission line upgrade for that area. | |

Investigation on the Commission's own motion into competition for local exchange service. |
Summary: On October 1, 2003, Ed Kolto, General Attorney for Pacific Bell Telephone Company (SBC), met with Tim Sullivan, advisor to Cmmr. Kennedy, in San Francisco. Also present was Elaine Duncan, Vice President General Counsel for Verizon California Inc. Kolto stated that the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) Triennial Review Order states that the state commissions should first define the relevant geographic markets and then apply a two-step process for evaluating whether there is no impairment for mass market switching. Kolto stated that in the first step, the state commission determines whether the relevant triggers are met; and, if so, no further analysis is required; and if not, the commission evaluates economic and operational criteria to assess whether there is no impairment. Kolto explained that the FCC's order does not require the state commissions to revisit their market definition after they have considered the relevant economic and operational criteria in step two. Kolto noted further that a two-step procedural process would simplify the Commission's analysis and greatly reduce the burden on all parties and the Commission in terms of the amount of evidence that needs to be considered. Kolto also explained SBC's proposal for a two-step batch cut analysis. | |

Summary: On September 29, 2003, Elaine M. Duncan, Vice-President General Counsel, Verizon California Inc. (Verizon), met with Tim Sullivan, advisor to Cmmr. Kennedy, in San Francisco. Also present was Ed Kolto, General Attorney for SBC. Written materials (copies attached to the notice) were used. Parties discussed the process for conducting the nine-month mass market switching phase of the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) Triennial Review case. Duncan stated that the Triennial Review Order was very clear that state commissions should follow a two-step process in which the markets are defined first and the triggers applied. Duncan stated further that only in the event triggers are not satisfied is the Commission required to analyze economic and operational impairment in the same markets based on factors enumerated by the FCC, and if the triggers are met, no further analysis is required. | |
