(complainant) against Evans Telephone Company (Evans) and Volcano Telephone Company (Volcano) (co-defendants). The dispute in this complaint is the proper rating of calls where there is a divergence between the destination of the call and the call's rate center designation embodied in the NXX code of the assigned telephone number. This decision determines that Evans and Volcano shall not be permitted to apply their toll tariff for calls originated by their customers in the Patterson and Volcano exchanges to Internet Service Providers (ISP) located in Stockton, but assigned telephone numbers with rate centers in the Crows Landing and Jackson exchanges, respectively. This decision does not resolve disputes over intercarrier compensation.

Summary: On January 14, 1999, Michael B. Day of Enron Energy Services Inc. and Enron Capital and Trade Resources Corp. ("Enron") initiated an ex parte meeting at CPUC with Michelle Cooke, advisor to Commissioner Duque. Oral communications were conveyed by Mr. Day. Others present were Peter Hanschen of the Agricultural Energy Consumers Association and two representatives from the Office of Ratepayer Advocates ("ORA"). Mr. Day requested that the distribution competition issues be removed from Pacific Gas & Electric's ("PG&E") PBR proceeding and placed in another proceeding. One such issue, Mr. Day stated, was PG&E's recommendation that anti- bypass rates be approved as part of PG&E's PBR proposal. Mr. Day and Mr. Hanschen recommended those issues be addressed in the rulemaking proceeding R98-12-015. Filer: Enron Energy Services, Inc. and Enron Capital and Trade Resources Corp.
