5. Comments on Draft Decision
The draft decision of Administrative Law Judge Michelle Cooke in this matter was mailed to the parties in accordance with Section (311(g)(1)) of the Public Utilities Code and Rule 77.7 of the Rules of Practice and Procedure. Comments were filed on December 11, 2000 by PG&E and SCE.1 We have made several revisions to the order as a result of the comments.
1 On December 7, 2000, the Docket Office accepted for filing a document prepared by Solar Development Cooperative (SDC). The document appears to be protests to several advice letters, comments on the November 20, 2000 draft decision, and comments on D.00-11-001. The only comments regarding Rule 21 focus on SDC's disagreement with the Dispute Resolution Process set forth in Section 7 of Rule 21. Section 7 was adopted in D.00-11-001. The proper time to raise the objections to Section 7 set forth in SDC's December 7, 2000 document were in comments on the draft decision leading up to D.00-11-001. Therefore, we do not address the merits of SDC's filing. The remainder of SDC's filing does not constitute comments on the draft decision and is not addressed for purposes of this decision.
