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 the 75th day after TURN filed its respective compensation request, and continuing until full payment of the award is made. For TURN's May 21st Request, the
75th day is August 4, 2007 and for TURN's July 30th Request, the 75th day is October 13, 2007. This award is to be paid by PG&E as the regulated entity in this proceeding.
We remind all intervenors that Commission staff may audit their records related to the award and that intervenors must make and retain adequate accounting and other documentation to support all claims for intervenor compensation. TURN's records should identify specific issues for which it requested compensation, the actual time spent by each employee or consultant, the applicable hourly rates, fees paid to consultants, and any other costs for which compensation was claimed.
42 Hourly rates are reduced 50% for preparation of the NOI and compensation request.
