General
By July 30 the CC must get everything, i.e., all Subgroup reports.
August 1, a full draft report gets delivered to all DAWGies for review.
By August 8, you must get comments in to the CC and provide any input of substantive nature.
==> Last day for position papers on anything is August 8 !!
After that date, all changes will be editorial, not substantive. Unless, of course, you feel your input was not adequately reflected, in which case you can respond to a later draft as needed.
By August 15 you get a new draft incorporating everything received by August 8.
August 22, revision for format and clerical details.
August 29, final is drafted.
August 30, final is filed at CPUC.
Note: Weekly turnaround means that the CC actually has only 3-4 days to incorporate changes.
All contributions in WordPerfect 5.1.
If you use WORD 6.0 you must disable "smart quotes" or else you mess things up.
TODAY we are reviewing the chapters and sections people have agreed to write. The versions we have today may be very rough, as the assignments were given only only last Thursday & had to build on nothing. Therefore, examine things especially for organization, structure, etc., rather than for completeness of content.
Nancy Day is keeper of the table of contents, so if she is informed about who has responsibility for which sections, she can note these things on subsequent versions of the master outline. Let her know who you are.
Eric -- Draft Chapter 6 -- Aggregation
Issue to be raised is cross-subsidy and movement of funds. Sec. 6.1 will become a general statement of issues.
Sec 6.1.3.3 is only a rough version of UCAN's proposal; it will be revised soon.
New Sec 6.1.3 Aggregation Models is inserted, so existing Sec 6.1.3 on 7/15 outline is now renumbered to 6.1.4.
Note that load profiling is now in Chapter 4, under lead of David Kaplan & Mike Jaske.
Need someone to write 6.1.4 on Creditworthiness. This is moved to 7.5 & done by M Shames.
Chapter 7
Lorenzo is doing Intro (Sec 7.0) plus sec. 7.1 and 7.2.
Carolyn is doing 7.3. Carolyn's view is that certification need only address 2 issues: financial integrity and capability to transmit data appropriately. Eric points out that SC needs to be coordinated with ideas of FERC marketer and PUC-regulated retailer.
Eric sees a great gap on issue of data transfer for settlements between aggregators and schedule coordinators. Carolyn suggests that greater detail should go into Randy Britt's section.
SDGE (David Croyle) did 7.4, again a rough draft. Needs input for 7.4.2, to come from SoCalGas and Lorenzo.
Carolyn doing 7.5 (including 7.6 from original outline). Writings by Shames will be inserted by Carolyn into this section. Carolyn's approach is that registration is needed explicitly for interactions between registered parties and regulated parties. We all agreed, however, that Chapter 7 is to cover rules more generally, and this is reflected by the following changes to the outline:
Sec. 7.5.3 is moved into 7.1.
Also, 16.3 and 16.4 are moved into 7.5. (Chapter 16 is now only 16.1 and 16.2.)
Chapter 8
Sec 8.1 - 8.2 assembled by Cory Mayers at PG&E; phone 415 703 0335 (these were assigned to D Kaplan).
Sec 8.3 done by Mac (SDGE; 619 699 5181; fax 696 4027). This draft tries to reproduce in text the presentation SDGE made on July 2.
Chapter 10
New draft, lots of blanks to be filled in. Drafters of this section (Rich Jarvinen, Lorenzo, Carl Silsbee) will check with the energy efficiency working group (Don Schultz of DRA and Mike Messenger of CEC).
Contact Rich at RJarvine@SDGE.com, phone 619 654 1240; fax 654 1117.
Chapter 13
Lorenzo wrote an outline suggesting this chapter be broadened to include private distribution systems other than mobile home parks. It is not yet clear whether anyone in the group has interest in filling in these other sections.
Rich Hairston provided a revision of the mobile home parks writeup. On principles state at the end, there are some questions.
Item 4 is rewritten by M Shames to allow MHP owners who engage in direct access to make whetever direct access prices & terms they wish with their customers, and requires them to recover all their costs through these revenues. (This may not be an accurate paraphrase -- check the text if you're interested in this.)
Jaske asked why not have MHP operators become UDCs, rewriting the statutes as needed, rather than trying to live within statutes that are not workable. Mike Jaske & Rich Hairston will discuss this & revise appropriately.
