Accordingly, pursuant to Section 311(g)(2) of the Public Utilities Code, the otherwise applicable 30-day period for public review and comment was waived. However, PG&E requested and received authorization to file written comments in order to propose corrections to the ratemaking section of this decision. Comments were filed on May 5, 2006.

We have reviewed PG&E's comments and made changes to the ratemaking section of this decision consistent with PG&E's suggestions.
