Summary: On August 5, 1997, Jeanne M. Bennett, Counsel for Enron Capital and Trade Resources, spoke with Cmmr. Neeper, in San Francisco. Bennett stated that Enron's belief that the discovery requests made of Enron were outside the bounds of appropriate discovery and compelling compliance with such discovery set a dangerous precedent.

Phone: (415) 346-1385 Totah 8/11/97 A96-11-047 Southern California Edison Company, for section 376 treatment of transmission facility upgrades. Summary: On August 8, 1997, James Scarff, attorney for the Commission's Office of Ratepayer Advocates (ORA), met with Julie Halligan, advisor for Cmmr. Bilas, in San Francisco. Scarff stated that in order to answer the question of whether Edison would in fact incur a reduction I headroom associated with construction of the proposed transmission upgrades, the Commission needs to look at the change in total costs incurred by the utility, not simply the change in transmission costs. Scarff stated that trying to reconstruct the net effect of the transmission upgrades on Edison's ability to collect headroom after 2001 as Edison proposes, is an extremely difficult and speculative task. Scarff stated that ORA shares the opinion of many of the other parties that the application reflects an unacceptably broad interpretation of Section 376 which would render virtually worthless to ratepayers the promised 2001 termination date for most CTC collection. Scarff stressed that by focusing on the high probability that the upgrades would increase Edison's headroom and the difficulty of determining the net effect of the upgrades on costs later, the Commission had plenty of grounds for rejecting the application without reaching the question of whether transmission upgrades can ever qualify for Section 376 treatment. Scarff stated that in the CTC docket, ALJ Minkin had ruled that Section 376 consideration would be removed from Phase 2 and considered in Phase 3 of the CTC proceeding. Scarff stated that the alleged urgency surrounding the application has long since disappeared.
