Additionally, there is a proposal to adopt settlements updating marginal costs, cost allocation, and electric rate design for San Diego Gas & Electric Company.
Other notable items include a decision granting compensation to Small Business Utility Advocates for their role in Decision 24-12-038. A separate proposal would grant, with modifications, Southern California Edison Company’s petition to modify previous commission decisions.
The CPUC has also initiated rulemakings to update distribution-level interconnection rules and regulations and revise the California Teleconnect Fund Program. There is an investigation into Havasu Water Company regarding its compliance with laws governing safe water service in California.
