Scope of the Rehearing

This phase of A.02-12-028 must adopt a specific revenue requirement for the 2004 SONGS costs billed by Edison to SDG&E. The Commission has, however, adopted the correct SDG&E revenue requirement for SONGS costs incurred directly by SDG&E that are not billed by Edison. Based on the Order Granting Limited Rehearing, the narrowly defined scope for this new phase of the proceeding is as follows:

1. Identify and receive in evidence all necessary exhibits and testimony to forecast SDG&E's reasonable test year 2004 revenue requirement for its share of the ownership and operation of SONGS, as billed by Edison (but not those costs incurred directly by SDG&E) regardless of whether these exhibits and this testimony were previously available to the Commission when issuing D.04-12-015.

2. Calculate and adopt a forecast for test year 2004 consistent with D.04-07-022. This may not necessarily be the amount that SDG&E asserts is reasonable in Ex. 169.

Additionally, because of the passage of time, this phase will:

3. Adopt an appropriate rate recovery method if the SONGS revenue requirement changes as a result of this rehearing.

4. Adopt an appropriate adjustment to attrition year 2005 rates.
