TOTAL AWARDED TO AECA $ 69,131.27
Consistent with previous Commission decisions, we order that interest be paid on the award amount (at the rate earned on prime, three-month commercial paper, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15) commencing on October 30, 2005, the 75th day after August 15, 2005, the submission date of both compensation requests and continuing until full payment of the award is made.
Since the engine conversion program applies only to PG&E and Edison, and since all the parties agree that the population of diesel engines in PG&E's service territory that are eligible for conversion is about three times as large as the population in Edison's territory, we will direct PG&E to pay 75% of each compensation award set forth above, and Edison to pay 25%.
We remind all intervenors that Commission staff may audit their records related to this award and that intervenors must make and retain adequate accounting and other documentation to support all claims for intervenor compensation. The records of TURN and AECA should identify specific issues for which it requested compensation, the actual time spent by each employee or consultant, the applicable hourly rate, fees paid to consultants, and any other costs for which compensation was claimed.
