Finkelstein stated that since these materials are already part of the record in the proceeding, TURN has not attached to the notice. Finkelstein stated that TURN supported the Proposed Decision (PD) of ALJ Wetzell. Finkelstein noted that from the beginning Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) had treated this proceeding as the rate freeze general rate case (GRC), rather than the reliability GRC. Finkelstein discussed the approach the Commission should take if it considers issuing an alternate decision that increases the authorized revenue requirement for any of the accounts covered in the PD. Finally, Finkelstein suggested that any balancing account the Commission adopts to mitigate PG&E's incentive to return to its underspending practices of the past should be very limited in application to avoid any undue impact on future ratemaking, especially any future Performance Based Ratemaking mechanism.
