Results of 5/2/97 Ratesetting Working Group Meeting




The purpose of the 5/2/97 meeting of the Ratesetting Working Group was to 
determine upcoming needs for working group meetings.  Concerning the 
structure of non-firm rates, SCE will review its proposal for criteria 
for interruptions, after which the need for meetings will be determined.  
Concerning other issues, the group will wait for further rulings or 
decisions regarding schedule from the CPUC before setting further meetings.

Working group participants are advised to monitor plans for upcoming 
workshops resulting from the currently-proposed decision in the Direct
