July 1, 2008 |
California Public Utilities Commission |
Pursuant to the Assigned Commissioner's and ALJ's Ruling of April 18, 2008, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) will conduct this workshop for further discussion regarding the merits and manner by which DWR could pursue novation or assignment of its contracts through negotiation. This workshop shall follow up on issues discussed at the workshop on June 2, 2008, focusing on threshold constraints to be resolved before undertaking further measures to facilitate novation/assignment or renegotiation of DWR power contracts. The workshop agenda shall address: (1) expiration cut-off date for targeting DWR contracts for which novation/assignment or renegotiation should be pursued; (2) better quantification of costs/benefits of DWR contract novation/assignment; (3) prospects and conditions for contract power sellers to cooperate in the DWR contract novation/assignment or renegotiation process. (DWR should invite representatives of key contract power sellers to attend the workshop to engage in the dialog on this issue); (4) strategies to deal with constraints imposed by the PG&E Bankruptcy Settlement (D.03-12-035) in relation to feasibility of novation/assignment or renegotiation of DWR contracts; and (5) principles that should apply in addressing inter-utility cost allocation issues as a predicate for DWR contract novation/assignment or renegotiation.
This workshop shall provide a forum to identify: (1) possible areas of dispute which can be resolved or differences narrowed through discussion, and (2) remaining disputed issues of fact which warrant evidentiary hearings to resolve.
A detailed agenda will follow.
Questions regarding the workshop should be directed to April Mulqueen of the CPUC Policy and Planning Division (415-703-2329,

(Ordering Paragraph 13); and
(2) Discuss and refine DA process improvement ideas of SCE, AReM, CMTA, and other interested parties in preparation for the joint report required in Ordering Paragraph 14. "SCE, AReM and CMTA shall submit a joint report that identifies specific potential process improvements, proposes recommendations for SCE's DA process improvements, and recommendations for an ongoing process to consider possible future process improvements that reflect the needs and interests of all DA market participants in SCE territory. Participants may submit with the report their comments addressing any disagreements or reservations that participants may have with any recommendations or other aspects of the report. The report shall be submitted in R.07-05-025 for consideration if, and when, Phase III of that proceeding is commenced." (Ordering Paragraph 14).

Introductions, Review Objectives of Workshop, and Agenda |
10:15 am to 10:45 am |
Among the issues considered in SCE Application no. 07-01-045 was, "Does the Methodology Used to Develop the Proposed Fees Ensure DA Services are Provided in an Efficient Manner?" (See discussion beginning at p. 19, Section 4.1). The Commission stated, "Although SCE contends that it provides DA services efficiently, we believe that further improvements can be made." (Ibid. at p. 20). To address this potential, the Commission directed SCE, AReM and CMTA to meet to consider issues surrounding any such DA process improvements. |
