THROUGH AN ACTIVE GUN VIOLENCE
THIS BILL MAKES A NUMBER OF
CHANGES TO TV ARE OWES INCLUDING
JUDICIAL DISCRETION TO SET THE
TIME PERIOD FOR G. R. G. B. R.
O.FROM ONE YEAR TO A MAX OF
FIVE YEARS.
THE COMMITTEES ANALYSIS FAILS TO
RECOGNIZE THE COST SAVINGS THIS
MEASURE WILL AUTOMATICALLY
ACHIEVED BY REDUCING THE NUMBER
OF COURT HEARINGS FOR LONGER
TERM JV ARE OWES.
IF THE JUDGE DOES DECIDE TO
ISSUE THE MAXIMUM FIVE YEAR
DURATION THE COURTS ARE
AUTOMATICALLY SAVED FIVE
EXTENSION HEARINGS OVER THE
COURSE OF THE ORDER.
THESE ARE TANGIBLE COST SAVINGS
THE FISCAL IMPACT FOCUS ON THE
ANALYSIS OF A REST ON MULTIPLE
LAYERS OF HYPOTHETICALS IF ANY
ORDERS ARE ACTUALLY ISSUED FOR
LONGER THAN A YEAR.
IF ANY OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS
VIOLATE THE ORDER IF THE
VIOLATION WAS AFTER THE FIRST
YEAR OF THE ORDER.
IF THEY CAN TEST THE VIOLATION
OF REQUESTED JURY TRIAL OR
COUNSEL IF THERE ARE NO IF
THERE'S NO OTHER CRIMINAL
CHARGED INVOLVED IN THE TRIAL.
YEAH ANALYSIS CONCLUDES THAT IF
THIS LONG LIST OF HYPOTHETICALS
WITHIN AND ON WITH AND WHAT I
KNOWN CERTAINTY ACCURSED ELEVEN
TIMES WITHIN A YEAR THE SUSPENSE
THRESHOLD IS MATT.
OVER THE THREE YEARS OF TV ARE --
IMPLEMENTATIONS THERE'S BEEN
ONLY NINETY FIVE YOUR LONG
ORDERS THIS BILL IS FOCUSED ON
ALLEVIATING BURDENS INCLUDING
COSTS ON THE COURTS FAMILIES AND

CURRENTLY EXTEND GP ARE OWES ON
A YEARLY BASIS.
WHILE THESE CHANGES WOULD NOT
PREVENT THE OFFENSIVE BORDER
LINED -- IT IS MY BELIEF THAT BY
STRENGTHENING AND REFINING OUR
EXISTING GUN LAWS HAT WE CAN
HOPE TO PREVENT ANOTHER

EXTENDED OUT TO UP TO FIVE YEARS --
THIS IS GONNA INVITE INCREASED
LITIGATION REMEMBER THESE ORDERS

ALLEGATIONS -- FURTHER THERE
COULD BE LITIGATION BASED ON THE
LACK GUIDANCE TO A COURT ON WHEN

I SEE MR COOLEY WAS IN THE HOUSE.
HERE WAVING PRESENTATION ON A.
B. FOUR TWENTY FIVE BY
PRESENTING ON S. A. B. --
FIFTEEN NINETY ONE MR COOLEY YOU
WERE NOT HERE -- WHEN I TALKED
ABOUT THIS IS THE FISCAL
COMMITTEE AND OBVIOUSLY PLEASE
CONFINE YOUR?
COMMENTS TO THE FISCAL
IMPLICATIONS OF THE BILL WE'RE
NOT HERE.
TO REDO THE WORK OF THE POLICY
COMMITTEE SO WITH THAT.
SENT TO US ON AB.
FIFTEEN NINETY ONE THE I..
S. POLICY JUST TO PRESENT THIS
BILL BECAUSE I THINK THERE IS A
VERY SIGNIFICANT STATE INTEREST.
IN MAKING SURE INSURANCE.
LAWMAKERS CENTURY TWENTY HAVE
SOME KNOWLEDGE OF THE SUBJECT
MATTER.
THE UNUSUAL PART OF CALIFORNIA
LAW UNIQUE IN OUR CODES.
ARE MUCH OF THE INSURANCE CODE --
IS ARISE FROM THE WORK OF A BODY
KNOWS ANY I SEE.
THEY MAKE MODEL LAWS THAT THEY
COME INTO US TO ADOPT.
IT'S REALLY UNIQUE WITH OUR
SYSTEM OF LAWS THE FEEL OF
INSURANCE IS SUBJECT TO
DELEGATION TO AN UNELECTED THIRD
PARTY UNITY.
TODAY I SEE.
THEY RUN ACCREDITATION PROGRAM
THEY HAVE EIGHTEEN STATUTES DO
TO ADOPT -- AND SO THIS BILL
JUST ADDRESSES.
IN A WORLD IN WHICH SO MUCH OF
OUR INSURANCE CODE IS BY
DELEGATION TO A THIRD PARTY.
THERE IS A PUBLIC INTEREST IN
ENSURING THAT OUR LAW MAKERS ARE
INFORMED THE SUBJECT.
THE EXPENSE OF THIS BILL
SUPPORTS MAKING MORE
KNOWLEDGEABLE INSURANCE
LAWMAKERS I CAN ATTEST THAT THE
NATURE OF IN A IN COIL MEETINGS
FOR EXAMPLE ARE SO INFREQUENT.
AND THEIR SCHEDULING OFTEN
CONFLICTS WITH OUR WORK.
I'M NOT TOO CONCERNED ABOUT ALL
THE MEMBERS OF THE INSURANCE
CODE INTEREST PLEASE EVER MAKING
THESE MEETINGS.
BUT CERTAINLY AN INTERESTING
CALIFORNIA THAT ARE LAWMAKERS
KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON IN THIS
FIELD.
SO -- I JUST WANT TO PRESENT
THAT ISSUE IT IS UNIQUE IN OUR
INSURANCE CODE THIS DELEGATION
FACTOR -- IF THERE IS A
REASONABLE WAY TO SELECT WHICH
COMMITTEE MEMBERS WOULD GO TO AN
COIL I'M ALL FOR THAT.
I ACTUALLY DON'T THINK THEY'LL
BE A RUSH ON IT I THINK THE
PRACTICAL.
ANSWERS WOULD BE LIMITED.
SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT
pSERVICES FROM ARE THERE ANY
WITNESSES IN SUPPORT.
ANY WITNESSES IN OPPOSITION.
OZ THEIR FILE.
A YES WE DON'T HAVE AN APPROVED
POSITION ON THIS BILL BUT WE
KNOW THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF
INSURANCE -- ANTICIPATES THE
COST TO ADMINISTER THIS BILL
COULD BE APPROXIMATELY THREE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS FROM
THE INSURANCE FUND.
ALL RIGHT THANK YOU VERY MUCH

FAR AS CLEANING UP BUTIF YOU'RE
USING IT FOR A BURIAL GROUND
WOULD THAT BE.
A DIFFERENT COST SO WE'D LIKE TO
LOOK MORE INTO THAT TO SEE IF
THAT WOULD REDUCE COSTS AND THEN
THE SECOND THING -- THAT WE'D
LIKE TO LOOK AT IS -- THERE WERE
INITIAL TALKS ABOUT HAVING TO
REMOVE QUITE A LARGE AMOUNT OF
CEMENT FROM THOUGH -- THE ACTUAL
A RUNAWAY AND SOME SUGGESTIONS
HAVE BEEN COULD YOU ACTUALLY
BRING THE DIRT TO PUT IN ON TOP
OF IT VERSES REMOVING IT --

IF YOU WERE HAVING IT BE RETAIL
OR HOUSING BUT IN THIS CASE FOR
A DIFFERENT PURPOSE SO THERE'S

IN TERMS OF FINDING A FINANCE
FROM THE STATE YES -- I THINK I
THINK DO YOU VIEWS LOOKED AT A
PRETTY CAREFULLY IN TERMS OF
WHAT IT WHAT IT WOULD COST HIM.
THEY'RE DOING A LOT OF WE
ORGANIZATION NOW SO WE CAN BE
VERY CHEAP TO KIND OF JUST DIAL
THAT INTO THE STUFF THAT'S GOING
ON IN THE THE BILL DOES ALLOW.
FOR A LONG LEAD TIME FOR TO GET
DONE PROPERLY.
AND WHAT'S THE LONG LEAD TIME.
I THINK AT THIS POINT WHERE IT
TWENTY TWENTY ONE IS WHEN IT
WILL BE IMPLEMENTED.
WE DELAYED IT FOR A YEAR BECAUSE
OF OF CONCERNS BY DMV THAT
THEY'LL HAVE TO GEAR UP. FOR
THIS.
THE S. FOR THE S. FOR MORE TIME
AND IN THE OFFER WAS VERY HAPPY
TO GIVE IT.
TO DO YOU HAVE FINANCIALLY ON
THE IMPACT OF INDIVIDUALS.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN WHEN IT'S
LIKE A ONE POINT IS THAT WHAT
YOU'RE?
WHAT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN TO AN
INDIVIDUAL'S?
OF COST OF INSURANCE AND IT I
JUST WONDER WHAT.
SHOULD KNOW FROM ONLY THE
CUSTOMER MARK FROM OUR
EXPERIENCED ON THE COMMUNITIES
[inaudible]
AND YOU KNOW WHAT IS A FAIR
QUESTION FOR MARCH PRINCE POINT
CHANGE BEHAVIOR.
IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE THE
OTHER AMENDMENT THAT WE TOOK IS.
ON LIKE EVERY OTHER OFFENSE THAT
IS LIKE THIS OR SIMILAR TO IT
DANGEROUS DRIVING ACTIVITY YOU
DON'T EVEN GET THE POINT ON THE
FIRST INFRACTION.
SO NOT ONLY GET THE LONG LEAD
TIMEWE'RE WE'RE WE'RE ENGAGED
IN A IN A KIND OF A WIDESPREAD.
EDUCATION CAMPAIGN TO HELP
PEOPLE UNDERSTAND YOU SHOULD NOT
BE DOING THIS ACTIVITY IT'S VERY
DANGEROUS THE RESEARCH SHOWS
THAT IS AS DANGEROUS AS DRIVING
WHILE INTOXICATED -- WHICH WE
HAVE A MUCH BETTER HANDLE ON AND
SO THE FIRST ONE IN THIS CASE IS.
YOU YOU WOULD NOT GET A POINT
FOR THE FIRST INFRACTION IT'S
ONLY FOR THE REPEAT OFFENSE THAT
YOU WOULD GET THE INFRACTION AND
OF COURSE POINTS OR INFRACTIONS
FOR WHICH YOU'D GET A POINT
WHERE OLAF EVERY THREE YEARS AND
SO IT'S KIND OF A REFER THIS.
ONE FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE WILL
ONLY GET KIND OF THE HARD CORE
OFFENDERS THAT.
JUST DISREGARD THE LAW IN THIS
REGARD.
AND AND THE LENGTH OF TIME OF A
PRIOR CONVICTION.
WITH THE YOU KNOW THREE YEARS
THREE YEAR WINDOW AND ALSO.
THE THREE YEAR WINDOW AND YOU
ALSO.
WHAT IS THE MAGIC BEHIND A THREE
YEAR VERSUS A?
CURRENTLY HOW WE DO IT WE'RE
JUST TAKING THIS PRACTICE THIS
THIS ANOMALY FRANKLY THIS OUT
LIAR AND WE'RE FOLDING IT INTO
HOW WE HANDLE ALL THE OTHER
POINTS INFRACTIONS.
CENTER YET THAT IS DMV.
PRACTICE CENTER POLICY EVERY
YEAR ROLLING -- ASSESSMENT.
AND YOU CAN AVOID THE POINT BY
GOING TO TRAFFIC SCHOOL SO WE
FEEL LIKE.
FOLKS THAT THAT COULD
POTENTIALLY BE NEGATIVELY
IMPACTED HAVE LOTS OF OPTIONS TO
AVOID THE NEGATIVE IMPACT AND OF
COURSE THE THE DEATHS AND
INJURIES THE COME FROM THIS
BEHAVIOR -- IS EVENLY
DISTRIBUTED THROUGHOUT THE
UNIVERSE THE UNIVERSAL
POPULATION AND IT'S VERY
SIGNIFICANT AND THAT'S THE PIECE
THAT WERE.
REALLY FOCUSED ON A WE FEEL LIKE
WE'VE ADDRESSED SOME OF THE
OTHER POTENTIAL CONCERNS FOR FOR

THIS BILL IS NECESSARY TO ENSURE
THAT THE DMV IS ABLE TO CONTINUE
WITH A THIS PILOT -- WHILE A

WHICH IS DUE TO THE LEGISLATURE --
TO GIVE THEIR THOUGHTS ON THE

WHICH IS ASSEMBLY BILL.

MISTER HOLDEN PLEASE TELL US
ABOUT SB. FOR A. B..
TEN FIFTY FOUR IF YOU MISTER
CHAIR AND AND IT'S A PLEASURE TO
BE BEFORE YOUR COMMITTEE TODAY.
A WE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY PERCENT
EARLIER TODAY AND SENATE ENERGY
AND REAL TO COVER A GOOD DEAL OF
THE POLICY PIECES AROUND THIS
BILL -- WE DO KNOW THAT THERE'S
A EXPRESS INTEREST ON THE FISCAL
IMPACT AND SO WE WILL HAVE --
REPRESENT FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE CHOI SAID -- AS A PART
OF OUR PRESENTATION WITH MR MAYS
AND I WILL SERVE LEAD OFF AND
THEN WE'LL HAVE.
WELL ONE OF OUR CONSULTANTS GIVE --
SURVEY OVERVIEW OF THE SAFETY --
COMPONENTS OF THIS BILL.
AS WE ALL KNOW THIS IS NOT A NEW
ISSUE -- IS ONE WE'VE BEEN
WORKING ON FOR MORE THAN A YEAR
AND A HALF.
LAST YEAR EXTENSIVE DEBATE
RESULTED IN SB NINE A ONE WHICH
WAS ALSO INTENDED TO STABILIZE
THE FISCAL SITUATION OF OUR
UTILITIES.
I WOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
LEARN FROM EXTENSIVE HEARINGS
REPORTS.
AND DEBATES AS WELL AS THE
GOVERNOR STRIKE FORCE REPORT.
AND THE RECENT NINE OH ONE
COMMISSION REPORT.
ALL EFFORTS CONCLUDED THAT WE
MUST TAKE THE NECESSARY STEPS.
TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE FISCALLY
STABLE ELECTRIC UTILITIES IN THE
STATE WHICH CAN KEEP.
THE LIGHTS ON IN ORDER TO
PROTECT CUSTOMERS AND OUR
ECONOMY.
THAT IS THE CRITICAL THING
ENSURING THAT CUSTOMERS IN
CALIFORNIA'S ECONOMY.
IS STRONG AND CONTINUES TO BE
PROTECTED.
STILL UTILITIES ARE THE BACKBONE
OF OUR ECONOMY IN THE NECESSARY
BACKGROUND OF OUR DAILY LIVES.
CLIMATE CHANGE FOR WHICH WE ALL
SHARE RESPONSIBILITY.
HAS CREATED A NEW REALITY IN
CALIFORNIA. ONE CONSEQUENCE IS
THE WILDFIRES WHICH ARE MORE
FREQUENT MORE DANGEROUS AND MORE
DESTRUCTIVE.
IN MANY INSTANCES UTILITIES HAVE
FAILED TO MAINTAIN THEIR
INFRASTRUCTURE RESPONSIBLY.
IN OTHER CASES UTILITIES HAVE
HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE
CAUSED BY FILLED INFRASTRUCTURE
UNDER INVERSE CONDEMNATION EVEN
IF THEY DID NOTHING WRONG.
THESE TWO FACTORS THOUGH HAVE
COST THE BOND RATING AGENCIES TO
DOWNGRADE OUR UTILITIES. ONE
WENT TO JUNK BOND STATUS AND
THEN BANKRUPTCY ANOTHER FACES
THE SAME PLATE THIS SUMMER IF WE
DO NOTHING.
THE UTILITIES PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
MAYBE CLOSE BEHIND AS THE MARKET
ACTIONS HAVE CASCADED AFFECT.
THIS LEADS TO INCREASE BORROWING
COSTS FOR THE UTILITIES.
WHEN THEY BORROW AS MAJOR
BUSINESSES DO THOSE INCREASES
COSTS THOSE INCREASED COSTS WILL
INCREASE CUSTOMER COSTS BY
HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
ANNUALLY?
THEIR ONLY ALTERNATIVE WILL BE
NOT TO OPERATE AT ALL AND GO
INTO BANKRUPTCY.
AB TEN FIFTY FOUR WILL PAVE THE
WAY FOR UNPRECEDENTED SAFETY
INVESTMENTS BY THE I. O. U.'S
WITHOUT PROFITS. FOR
SHAREHOLDERS FOR SAY I USED TO
BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR WALL
FOR SAFETY RECORD AND
PERFORMANCE AND PROTECT
CUSTOMERS AND TAXPAYERS FROM
HOLY BEARING THE COST OF
DEVASTATING WILDFIRES.
THIS BILL PACKAGE WILL
FACILITATE CUSTOMERS ACCESS TO
SAFE RELIABLE AND AFFORDABLE
POWER BY PROVIDING A DURABLE
SOLUTION. TO THE PROBLEMS
ARISING FROM UTILITY BECAUSE
WILDFIRES IN CALIFORNIA.
THE BILL'S ESTABLISHED A WIDE A
NEW WILDFIRE SAFETY DIVISION.
INITIALLY WITHIN THE CPUC.
NO LATER THAN JANUARY TWENTY
FIRST OF TWENTY TWENTY ONE THE
DIVISION WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO
THE OFFICE OF ENERGY
INFRASTRUCTURE.
SAFETY WITHIN THE NATURAL
RESOURCES AGENCY.
THE BILLS ALSO ESTABLISHED
PROCEDURES AND STANDARDS
APPLICABLE TO CUT CATASTROPHIC
WILDFIRE PROCEEDINGS AND
STANDARDS APPLICABLE -- TO THE
IMPACT OF THOSE WILDFIRE THOSE
WILDFIRES -- CREATE.
CREATING A NEW PRUDENT MANAGER
STANDARD.
AND ESTABLISH A WILDFIRE FUND
AND MECHANISMS TO CAPITALIZE THE
WILDFIRE FRONT.
I'LL NOW TURN OVER TO COUPLE
MIKE A JOINT -- AUTHORS WHO WILL --
PERCENT ON VARIOUS ASPECTS OF
THE BILL OFFERS TURNED TO A
MISTER MAYES AND THEN THIS BURKE.
THANK YOU OF THE SUMMER HOLDEN
I'LL JUST BE A QUICK -- THAT
WANTED TO IMPLIFY OF YOUTH SOME
OF THE THINGS THAT -- SUMMER
HOLDEN WAS -- WAS TALKING ABOUT
WE KNOW THAT THESE INCIDENCES
ARE OCCURRING -- IT IS WHETHER
IT'S A NEW NORMAL MORE TO NEW
ABNORMAL A WE KNOW THAT THESE
WILDFIRES ARE HAPPENING -- 10%
OF ALL LAWS WHAT FAR START IN
THE STATE WERE STARTED BY THE
MLH UTILITIES ONLY 10%.
INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH THOUGH THE
CATASTROPHIC EVENTS OF THE LAST.
TWENTY ADVANCED THE TOP TWENTY
EVENTS EIGHT OF THOSE 2240% OF
THOSE EVENTS WERE STARTED -- BY
ELECTRIC UTILITIES.
WHICH ALSO COVER THOSE -- THREE
I'LL USE COVER 70% OF THE STATE.
SO WE HAVE A CHOICE -- WE
LEARNED DURING NINE OH ONE WE
HAVE ONE OF THREE OPTIONS -- WE
THEIR PRE FUNDED THOSE
INCIDENCES WE POST FUND THOSE
INTO A FOR THE RECORD AND THEN
SAW THE LATER LIKE WE TRY TO DO
WITH NINE A ONE OR ALLOW FOR
BANKRUPTCY.
WE REALIZE BANKRUPTCY IS NOT AN
OPTION WE'VE KNOWN THERE'S SOME
PROBLEMS WITH WAITING FOR THE
EVENTS TO OCCUR AND THEY JUST
DOING COST RECOVERY FOR PER RATE
PAYERS.
SO WHAT WE HAVE BEFORE US IS A
WAY FOR US TO BE ABLE TO SOLVE
THE PROBLEM -- ON A GOING
FORWARD BASIS.
I'M EXCEPTIONALLY PROUD TO BE
PART OF A TEAM THE THREE OF US
HERE THE AUTHORS HI BUT ALSO I'M
SEVERAL SENATORS THAT WE WORKED
QUITE A BIT WITH AND ALSO -- THE
ADMINISTRATION IS TO BE PRAISE
WITH THIS AS WELL BECAUSE THIS
IS A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT IT IS
NOT A PERFECT BILL THAT ANYBODY
CAN LOOK AT AND SAY YEP THIS IS
THE BILL THAT I WOULD WANT. TO

JUST LIKE I WANT OTHER BE A
HUNDRED TWENTY DIFFERENT
VERSIONS OF THIS -- IF THE IF
EVERY MEMBER THE LEGISLATURE WAS
GOING TO AUTHOR IT BUT WHAT WE
HAVE BEFORE US.
IS A WAY TO BE ABLE TO SOLVE THE
PROBLEM TO ALLOW FOR FINANCIAL
STABILITY A WITH OUR LOGIC
UTILITIES.
I JUST WELL ONE QUICK THING --
IN THIS PROPOSAL BEFORE US BACK
IN JANUARY WHEN I INTRODUCED AB
TWO THIRTY FIVE WHICH WAS A MY

WILDFIRE FUND BILL.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN THREE BILLION

MADE NO MORE THAN THREE BILLION
DOLLARS TURNS OUT THERE'S TEN
AND A HALF BILLION DOLLARS A

BECAUSE WILDFIRES IN CALIFORNIA.
AND PROTECT CALIFORNIA'S FROM
SHOULDERING THE COST OF A FIELD
ENERGY SECTOR WITHOUT BACK
TRACKING ON THE STATE'S CLIMATE
GOALS.
AB TEN FIFTY FOUR AND ITS
COMPANION BILLS WILL ESTABLISH A

REGARDS TO THE RESPONSIBILITY
UTILITIES I'LL USE WILL HAVE TO
SPEND FIVE BILLION IN AGGREGATE
ON FIRE SAFETY AND MEDICATION
OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS.
AND SHAREHOLDERS WILL NOT BE
ABLE TO EARN A RATE OF RETURN OR
PROFIT FROM THIS INVESTMENT.
ENCOURAGING INCREASED WHAT WILD
FIRE SAFETY SPENDING AND HIGHER
UTILITY SAFETY STANDARDS A
REDUCE THE OCCURRENCE OF
CATASTROPHIC WHILE BY A RESULT
IN SAVINGS TO THE STATE AND
CONSUMERS.
ADDITIONALLY IF THE BILL IT IS
SUCCESSFULLY REDUCES FUTURE FIRE
RELATED FINANCIAL RISK UTILITY
CREDIT RATINGS CAN REMAIN STABLE
AND EVEN IMPROVE ACCORDING TO
THE LA -- EVERY TIME THE BOND
RATING AGENCIES DOWNGRADE THE
UTILITIES THERE IS A
CORRESPONDING INCREASE IN THE
COST OF BORROWING FOR THE
ELECTRICAL CORPORATIONS.
IN ADDITION TO SAVINGS RATE
PAYER MONEY THIS BILL TAKES
STEPS TO DECREASE THE CHANCES OF
FUTURE FIRES INCLUDING THE
ESTABLISHMENT OF A SAFETY
CERTIFICATION WITH IN THE
ADVISORY BOARD THAT REQUIRES
UTILITIES TO TIE EXECUTIVE
COMPENSATION TO SAFETY
PERFORMANCE.
CREATE A SAFETY COMMITTEE WITHIN
THEIR BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPLY
WITH THEIR WILD FIRE MITIGATION
PLANS AND PASS A SAFETY CULTURE
ASSESSMENT.
FURTHERMORE IT CREATES A NEW
PRUDENT MANAGEMENT CENTER THAT
ALIGNS WITH THAT EFFORT TO
PROVIDE MORE CLARITY FOR
UTILITIES.

OF THE CLAIMS THE THE THE
INTERNAL AT THE SHORT TERM LINE
OF CREDIT WOULD BE REFUNDED FROM
EITHER CONTRIBUTIONS FROM
SHAREHOLDERS OR CONTRIBUTIONS
FROM -- FROM RATEPAYERS
DEPENDING ON WHETHER THE UTILITY
WAS PRINT OR WAS NOT PRUDENT.
THE SECOND OPTION IS THE
INSURANCE FUND THE INSURANCE
FUND IS THE OPTION THAT WE THINK
WILL BE CHOSEN FOR A VARIETY OF
REASONS INCLUDING THE FACT THAT
IT'S THE PATH.
TO THE CLEAR STANDARD THAT WAS
BURKE SPOKE -- TO RELATIVE TO
COST RECOVERY AND IT'S ALSO THE
PATH TO BE ABLE TO HAVING --
SOME GREATER PREDICTABILITY THE
INSURANCE FUND GETS GETS
CAPITALIZED WITH -- TO
CONTRIBUTIONS ONE IS THE TEN AND
A HALF BILLION DOLLARS THAT
MISTER MAY SPOKE TO FROM GUY
UTILITY CONTRIBUTIONS THAT THOSE
WOULD COME FROM SHAREHOLDERS AND
THEY WOULD NOT BE RECOVERABLE
THROUGH RATES.
THERE ALSO BE TEN AND A HALF
BILLION DOLLARS.
THAT WOULD BE.
MADE AVAILABLE BY THE EXTENSION
OF THE RATES THAT ARE CURRENTLY
BEING PAID FOR THE PARTNER WATER
RESOURCES -- RATES THOSE THAT
TWENTY ONE BILLION DOLLARS WOULD
BE AUGMENTED WITH OTHER MEASURES
TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE UP TO
FORTY BILLION DOLLARS OF CLAIMS
BEING RESOURCES.
THE THE THE BIG ADDITIONAL
CONTRIBUTORS THAT THERE WOULD BE
A LIMIT ESTABLISHED ON PAY OUTS
OF CLAIMS -- TO TO INSURANCE
COMPANIES OF ABOUT 40% AND SO
THE AGGREGATE OF THOSE THREE
COMPONENTS PROVIDES ABOUT FORTY
BILLION DOLLARS OF RAPING
RESOURCES.
THAT -- THE PROVIDES HERE
RUNNING ROOM UNTIL THE
MITIGATION STEPS THE HARDENING
AND ALL THE OTHER ELEMENTS OF
THEY HAVE THE EFFECT OF REDUCING
THE FREQUENCY AND ITENSITY OF
YOU KNOW UTILITY CALLS WILDFIRES.
THERE ARE CAN BE ADDITIONAL
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FUN THAT
WOULD BE REQUIRED SO IN THE
CONTEXT OF YOU KNOW IN ORDER TO
HAVE ACCESS TO THE FUND
UTILITIES WOULD HAVE TO RECEIVE
A SAVE THE CERTIFICATION.
AND AND IF THEY ARE PRUDENT
MANAGERS THEN.
THEN THE FUND WOULD PAY THE
CLAIM AND THERE'S NO ADDITIONAL
REIMBURSEMENT IF THEY ARE NOT
THEN THEY WOULD HAVE TO PROVIDE.
A REIMBURSEMENT TO THE FUNDED
HAVE TO PAY A DEDUCTIBLE THE
DEDUCTIBLE WOULD BE UP TO A CAP
IF THEY GENERALLY OR OR YOU KNOW
FOR ACTING.
IN IN GOOD FAITH IF THEY ARE
ACTING IN BAD FAITH WAS THERE IS
WILL FULL ACTION THEY WOULD HAVE
TO REFUND THE ENTIRETY OF THE
CLAIMS PAID OUT BY THE FUND.
SO THE MINIMUM CONTRIBUTION.
FROM -- SHAREHOLDERS IN THIS
CONSTRUCT IS ABOUT TEN AND A
HALF BILLION DOLLARS IT CAN BE
ANOTHER THIRTY THREE BILLION
DOLLARS IF THE CAP -- OTHER THE
DUCK DOUBLE IS -- IS IS YOU KNOW
IS.
REACHED AND IT CAN BE GREATER
THAN THAT IF THERE'S WILLFUL
ACTION ON THEIR PART AND THEY
HAVE TO RE RE FUND.
THE A 100% OF THE CLAIMS SPADE
THAT HOLD THE AMOUNT OF MONEY --
THAT WHOLE CORPUS IS NOT -- IT'S
NOT COULD NOT BE RECOVERABLE
FROM REPAIR SO THAT'S THE
OVERALL STRUCTURE OF THE
INSURANCE.
ONE AND IN MISTER CHAIR WE HAVE
A FEW PEOPLE WHO WERE GOING TO
PROVIDE -- TESTIMONY OF VERY
BRIEF TESTIMONY OB PATRICK
MCCOLLUM WHO'S OF FROM UP FROM
THE ASHES I BELIEVE.
THIS YEAR OF THAT WE ALSO I
BELIEVE ALSO HAVE SCOTT WHICH
WITH I. B. W..
AND NATURAL RESOURCES DEFENSE
COUNCIL INDEPENDENT ENERGY
PRODUCERS AS WELL HOLD ON BEFORE
YOU GO TO YOUR WITNESS SO YOU
HAVE A QUESTION MISTER WHITE
HOUSE.
I WANTED TO UNDERSTAND THE
CALIFORNIA RESOURCE CALIFORNIA
AND SHE RESOURCE SCHEDULING
BECAUSE THERE ARE STAFF REPORT
SHOWS THAT THOSE PAYMENT THOSE
OBLIGATIONS FOR THOSE SPONSOR
PAYING OFF THE CONTRACTS.
ARE ARE FILLED UNTIL.
TWENTY TWENTY TWO THAT MEANS
THAT THAT MONEY WOULD ONLY BE
AVAILABLE I GUESS BEGINNING IN
TWENTY TWENTY THREE TO TWENTY
THIRTY SO THIS THEM.
DOES THE MATH WORK OUT IF WE'RE
NOT COLLECTING ANYTHING FOR THE
NEXT THREE YEARS.
ON THE ON THE ON OUR SIDE OF THE
TEN HAVE BILLION WELL THE DATA
WE ARE RECHARGE RIGHT SO YOU CAN
YOU PLEDGE OF REVENUES INTO THE
FUTURE AND THEN CAN HAVE THE
SECURITIZATION ON THE DOLLARS
GOD THE BASICALLY THAT'S QUITE
BECOMES A QUESTION OF THE
SCHEDULING OF THAT.
SERVICE -- WITH THE EXTENSION OF
THE RATE THE REVENUES WOULD BE
AVAILABLE FOR PAYING THAT WOULD
BE THE THE FOR THE FUN FIRST
BECOMES CAPITALIZED WITH A LOAN
FROM.
THE FROM FROM YEAH AND THEN THAT
THAT GETS IN TURN REFUNDED WITH
THE BONDS THE ONCE YOU MAKE THEM
AVAILABLE INTO THE FUTURE JUST
BECOMES A QUESTION OF THE TIMING
OF THE OF THE OF THE DEBT
SERVICE PAYMENTS SO THAT THE W.
OUR BONDS ARE SCHEDULED TO BE
PAID.
OFF -- NEXT YEAR WHEN THEY GO
THIS FUNDING STREAM WILL BECOME
AVAILABLE SO WE CAN SCHEDULE THE
DEBT SERVICE CONSISTENT WITH
WHEN THE FUNDS WOULD FLOW SO THE
DEBT SERVICE WE COULD.
POSSIBLY MEET THE INCOME AND
THAT WE'RE GONNA CAN SECURITIZED
IT COULD BE BEYOND THE TWENTY
THIRTY PERIOD OF THIS THE
LIMITATIONS OF THE SPOT RIGHT
THE LIMITATIONS ON THIS ON THE
STATUE WOULD BE UP TO TWENTY
THIRTY SIX IF I RECALL CORRECTLY.
TWENTY THIRTY SIX WOULD BE THE
OUTSIDE OF THE OUTSIDE PERIOD
FOR WHEN THE RATE WOULD BE
EXTENDED TO TO PROVIDE COVERAGE --
TO TO KEEP TO PREPAY THE TERRA
HALF BILLION DOLLAR BOND IN THE
ONE TIME SURPLUS MONEY
INVESTMENT FUND THE TWO BILLION
THAT WE SORT OF KICK EVERYTHING
OFF.
THAT GETS REPAID FROM THE I. O.
U.'S CONTRIBUTION THE TWENTY
TWENTY THREE MONEY WAR.
AND THE STATE THE EXPECTATION IS
THAT WILL GET REAP REPAID BY THE
BY THE BONDS AND AGAIN THE BOND
PROCEEDS CAN BECOME AVAILABLE
BEFORE THE THE ACTUAL CASH FLOW
IT JUST BECOMES A QUESTION OF
HOW ONE IS STRUCTURING THE DEBT
SERVICE FOR THE UP ON OKAY.
AND ONE FINAL QUESTION THREE
CHAIR IF THAT'S POSSIBLE -- IS
ON THE THE CPUC THE PUBLIC
UTILITIES COMMISSION -- WE HAVE
A DON'T KNOW WHAT THE COST TO
GOOD TO BE FOR THIS.
CALIFORNIA WHILE SAFETY ADVISORY
BOARD THE PROCESS OF GOING
THROUGH THE CERTIFICATION.
I KNOW THAT THE CHAIR OF THE
BUDGET SUB TO IS INTERESTED THEY
HAVE JURISDICTION OVER P. UC
WHAT'S YOUR ESTIMATE NOW ARE
WHEN THIS STAFF REPORT WAS TEN
IT WAS HIS.
MILLIONS.
SO IT'S SB ONE ELEVEN AB ONE
ELEVEN CONTAIN APPROPRIATIONS TO
FUND THE SAFETY FUNCTIONS
ASSOCIATED WITH -- THIS MEASURE
FOR THE P. YOU SEE AND IT'S A
TOTAL FOR BOTH THE PC AND THE
RATE PAYER ADVOCATE OF FORTY SIX
POINT EIGHT I BELIEVE IT'S LESS
THAN FORTY SEVEN MORE THAN FORTY
SIX I THINK IT'S FORTY SIX POINT.
EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS IN -- AND
DOLLARS IT TO FUND ALL OF THE
SAFETY RELATED FUNCTIONS OF
IMAGE.
AND FINALLY MISTER MISTER SURE
THERE'S THERE'S A REQUIREMENT
FOR THE UTILITIES TO MAKE
CERTAIN HARDENING AND SORT IN
CERTAIN WILDLIFE WILDLIFE
MEDICATION THERE'S NOTHING IN
HERE THERE'S NO.
COMMITMENT FROM THE STATE OTHER
THAN SB NINE A ONE THERE'S NO
ADDITIONAL COMMITMENT FOR THE
STATE FOR LONG TERM RESILIENCY
PLANNING OR WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT
OR ANYTHING ON THE STATE SIDE OF
THE FIRE EQUATION.
THERE'S NO ADDITIONAL COMMITMENT
BEYOND THOSE REFLECTED IN THE
pREFLECTED IN THE BUDGET ACT ARE
CONSIDERABLE -- WE UNDERSTAND
THAT THIS IS AN AREA WHERE THERE
IS AN INTEREST IN FUTURE
DISCUSSION -- AND THERE THERE'S
AND WE WILL LOOK FORWARD TO
WORKING WITH YOU -- THROUGH THE
BALANCE OF THE SESSION AS WELL
AS THROUGH NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET.
WITH THEIR ADDITIONAL
INVESTMENTS THAT ARE NECESSARY
TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE DOING WHAT
WE NEED TO BE DOING TO MITIGATE
AND REDUCE THE RISK AND
FREQUENCY OF WILDFIRES I WILL
RELISH THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK
ABOUT YOU ON THE SUBJECT.
ANYONE ELSE HAVE A QUESTION FOR
THEM.
TO SEEING NO OTHER HANDS.
THE STATE COUNTY -- TO CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE ON
PATRICK MCCALLUM REPRESENTING UP
FROM THE ASHES ASHES WITH A
GROUP THAT WAS FORMED.
AFTER THE TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN
NORTH AY FIRES IT'S THE TWENTY
FIVE THOUSAND FAMILIES THAT HAVE
LOST THEIR HOMES DO I OWE YOU
CAUSE FIRES IN THE LAST FOUR
YEARS.
IT'S ALSO THE FORTY ONE LAW
FIRMS -- THAT A REPRESENTATIVE
OUR LAWYERS SPENT FROM FRIDAY TO
SUNDAY.
DEEPLY LOOKING TO THIS ANALYZE
IN THIS.
AND I THOUGHT WE WANT A
COMPLIMENT -- SWIMMING HOLDEN
SOME WOMEN MAYES AND BURKE
SENATOR DODD AND SENATOR HILLS
BEEN ACTIVELY LAWCENTER
HERTZBERG AND THE GOVERNOR STAFF
WE THINK THEY GOT IT RIGHT.
AB TEN FIFTY FOUR IS THE BEST
HOPE FOR CALIFORNIANS NOT TO GO
TO THE DISASTER THAT I AND MY
WIFE.
THE TWENTY THOUSAND FAMILIES
HAVE GONE THROUGH BUT I WANT TO
TALK QUICKLY ON THREE OF THE
ISSUES NOT ON THE STABILITY TO
THE UTILITY.
BURKE ON A SAFETY.
ON OUR RATE PAYERS IN ON VICTIMS
ON SAFETY IF YOU BILL FROM WHAT
YOU DID IN SB NINE A ONE YOU
TAKE WHAT.
JUDGE ELSA DID IN THE CPUC
ADOPTED. ONE AREA AND THAT THE
WE WERE.
MOST CONCERNED ABOUT IS TO MAKE
SURE THE SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
ARE GOING ON RIGHT NOW THE TWO
FIVE TEN FROM YOUR YEARS FROM
NOW IT THAT THEY'RE GOING ON
WITH THIS NEW DEPARTMENT THAT'S
BEEN CREATED.
THEY'RE GONNA HIGHER WHILE FIRE
SAFETY STAFF WE CAN BE ASSURED
THIS GOES ON IN THE FUTURE IN
THIS JUSTIN AND SOMETHING NOW
THAT TAKES PLACE WITH THE FIVE
BILLION DOLLARS IT'S IN PLACE.
WITH THE MORE TARGETED
ANALYTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS
WITHIN IT.
WE FEEL MORE CONFIDENT THAT
THEY'RE LESS LIKELY FOR OTHER
VICTIMS TO GO THROUGH WHAT WE
WENT THROUGH.
ON RATE PAYERS HIGHLY
COMPLICATED BUT WE AND THAT
BASICALLY THINK SUBSTANTIAL
SAVINGS EVEN IF YOU TAKE THE T.
W. R. CAPITALIZATION. THIRTY
DOLLARS A YEAR YOU TAKE THAT AS
AN INCREASE WHICH SOME PEOPLE
WOULD ARGUE.
SUBSTANTIAL SAVINGS FOR P.
JEANNIE CUSTOMERS.
MAJOR SAVINGS FOR EDISON
CUSTOMERS.
AND MAY BE FLAT TO INCREASE FOR
SD ANY CUSTOMERS OF WHAT THEY
GET IN LIABILITY IN THE
STABILITY IT PROVIDES THEIR BEST
RASPY ANY WE CAN WALK THROUGH
THE COMPLEXITY ON THAT.
BUT AND HOW YOU GET THERE BUT
THEY TAKE AWAY THE DEEP THE THE
CAPITALIZATION OF SECURITIZATION
OUR RATE PAYERS THEY PUT IT ON
UTILITY.
THEY TAKE AWAY THE PROFIT ON THE
FIVE BILLION DOLLARS IF WE GOING
TO JUMP AND STATUS JULY TWELFTH.
THE COSTS GO UP AND IF THERE'S
NO FUND MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE
WITHIN THE FINE AND FINALLY FOR
VICTIMS ARE THREE AREAS IT HELPS
VICTIMS.
WE ASK FOR LANGUAGE THEY PUT IT
IN CPUC HAS TO CERTIFY.
THIS IS JUDGE MONTALE GOING ON
BANKRUPTCY WITH PD AND THE THAT
THAT VICTIMS HAVE BEEN ACCO
ADEQUATELY COMPENSATED.
ITS LEVERAGE THE PROVIDES
LEVERAGE FOR US AND IT P.
JEANNIE WANTS TO GET IN THIS
FUNDING AT THE MOVE THINK FAST
IN BANKRUPTCY YOU HAVE THE TWO
JUNE TWENTIETH DAY.
THE EVALUATION THE TAKES PLACE.
IS WHAT'S GOING TO PAY FUTURE
VICTIMS IN ADDISON AND WHAT'S
GOING TO PAY FOR FUTURE VICTIMS
MPG NAY THE GOOD FOR VICTIMS
GOOD FOR SAFETY AND GOOD FOR
RATEPAYERS THANK YOU.
MR CHAIRMAN MEMBERS GOT WHICH
SHOULD BE AFTER THE CALIFORNIA
COALITION OF UTILITY EMPLOYEES.
THERE'S TWENTY TWO THOUSAND
EMPLOYEES AT P. JEANNIE TWENTY
FIVE THOUSAND RETIREES. FOURTEEN
THOUSAND EMPLOYEES IT CALIFORNIA
EDISON WITH ANOTHER TWENTY
THOUSAND RETIREES THE PROVISION
OF THIS BILL THAT WE CARE MOSTLY
ABOUT IS THAT IN EXISTING LAW.
THERE IS.
A REQUIREMENT THAT WHEN THERE IS
AN ACQUISITION.
OR A MERGER.
OF A UTILITY OR TELECOM.
THE P. YOU SEE HAS TO DO A
REVIEW AND ENSURE THAT RATE
PAYERS ARE PROTECTED.
THE T..
THE THE A MERGER OR ACQUISITION
IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE
PUBLIC.
THAT IS FAIR AND REASONABLE. TO
EMPLOYEES.
IN ABOUT FIVE OR SIX OTHER.
PUBLIC INTEREST RELATED FINDINGS
THAT THEY HAVE TO MAKE.
THE PROBLEM IS THAT THAT
PROVISION DOES NOT APPLY TO
PARTIAL SALES.
SO NOW THAT WE HAVE HEDGE FUNDS
WHO ARE OWNING AND OPERATING OR
UTILITIES.
THE FEAR IS THAT THEY WILL START
TO CHOP UP AND SELL ASSETS IN
ORDER TO OBTAIN CASH.
IN THOSE ASSET SALES WON'T BE
SUBJECT TO THIS P. YOU SEE
REVIEW PROCESS AND FRANKLY WE
DON'T CARE IF THEY'RE SELLING TO
A PRIVATE OR PUBLIC ENTITY.
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT
PROCESS.
IS -- IS ACHIEVED IN THAT IS IN
THE SEA ON PAGE FORTY THREE OF
THIS BILL.
THAT IS SO IF THERE'S HUGE
CAUTIOUS TO OTHER REPAIRS THE P.
YOU SEE CAN PULL MONEY OUT OF
ANY SALE AND MAKE SURE THAT GOES
TO HELP AND TO UNDERWRITE THOSE
RATE PAYERS.
IF THERE'S NEEDS TO BE WORKER
PROTECTIONS IN TERMS OF THE
PENSION AND OTHER BENEFITS THE
P. YOU SEE CAN GO AHEAD AND
IMPLEMENT THOSE AS PART OF THE
APPROVAL CURRENTLY T. MOBILE AND
SPRINT ARE GOING TO THIS VERY
PROCESS.
WOULD ES DE JEANNIE AND EDISON
PROPOSED MERGER YEARS AGO IT WAS
THIS PROCESS THAT THE P. YOU SEE
FOLLOWED AND THEN DENIED THE
MERGER BECAUSE THEY RULED WASN'T
IN THE BEST INTEREST.
RATE PAYERS THAT TYPE OF BLUE
SKY REVIEW IS CRITICAL WE URGE
IN EITHER THANK YOU.
OTHERS IN SUPPORT PLEASE COME UP
AND DO A ME -- TOO I'M WITH THE
INDEPENDENT ENERGY PRODUCERS AND
MISTER -- OKAY YEP -- CHANCE BUT
HE JONES WITH THE INDEPENDENT
ENERGY PRODUCERS AND I WANT TO
PRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS
LEGISLATION -- ON TO CALIFORNIA
ELECTRICAL -- CURRENT LEXICAL
NEEDS MY MEMBER COMPANIES
PROVIDE A PROVIDE CLEAN ENERGY
IS WELLS RELIABILITY PRODUCTS TO
KEEP THE LIGHTS ON THE MARKET IS
A MESS RIGHT NOW -- IN THE CITY
CALIFORNIA IS THE LARGEST RATE
PAYER OUT THERE WE HAVE ONE
UTILITY IN BANKRUPTCY WERE VERY
CONCERNED ABOUT THE THREE
HUNDRED FIFTY CONTRACTS -- THE
INDUSTRY HOUSE WITH THE WITH
THAT UTILITY WE CANNOT AFFORD
ANY FURTHER DEGRADATION OF THE
OTHER TWO UTILITIES AND PUBLIC
UTILITIES OF I SHOULD POINT OUT
ONE OF THEM IS NOW AND NEGATIVE
WATCH -- BASED ON FIRE LIABILITY
TO THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT
FOR US TO MEET OUR CLIMATE
CHANGE GOALS IN THE FUTURE WHICH
IS A REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT
OF CAPITAL -- IT'S GOING TO
REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF
CAPITAL FOR RUSSIA HARD THE
SYSTEM -- IT IS -- I I CAN'T --
IT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT -- THAT
WE STABILIZE THE FINANCIAL
SECURITY HERE OF THE UTILITY SO
WE CAN MOVE FORWARD AND ADDRESS
THIS ISSUE THIS IS ONE COMPONENT
OF A VERY COMPLEX PUZZLE BUT
IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT ONE TO BAY
BASICALLY GET THINGS STABLE SO
WE CAN CONTINUE INVESTING
CALIFORNIA'S ENERGY FUTURE.
THANK YOU THANK YOU SO EVERYBODY
ELSE PLEASE DO ME TOO OKAY.

MR GENERALIZATIONS WITH THE
CALIFORNIA MANUFACTURERS AND
TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATION I WANT TO
COME UP AT THE TAIL END OF
SUPPORT TO SAY THAT THE PROCESS
THAT WE'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH
WITH EVERYBODY AT THE TABLE.
CLEAN THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE HAS
BEEN FANTASTIC WE SUPPORT THAT
PROCESS I KNOW IT'S A DIFFICULT
SITUATION YOU FIND YOURSELVES IN
WERE NEUTRAL THE MOMENT I WANT
TO SAY IN GIVE A NICE.
COMPLIMENT TO THE FOLKS INVOLVED
AT THE TABLE.
AND MICHELLE DID YOU WANT TO
RESPOND TO THE MANUFACTURERS
WELL I JUST WANT TO THANK THEM
AND APPRECIATE THE WORKING WITH
US I KNOW THAT THIS IS BEEN
DIFFICULT -- FOR EVERYONE TO TRY
TO FIGURE OUT HOW THIS BILL CAN
KIND OF A COP WHICH A LOT FOR
EVERYONE -- BUT I DO THINK THAT
THERE'S BEEN A RECOGNITION OF
THE OF THE CONSTITUENCY THAT IS
BEING REPRESENTED HERE AND WE
ARE GOING FORWARD TO TRY TO FIND
WAYS.
OF RECOGNIZING THAT IN TRYING TO
OFFSET SOME OF THE IMPACTS OF
THEIR OBVIOUSLY THEIR CUSTOMERS
ARE GONNA FEEL.
I APPRECIATE YOU -- COMMITTING
TO DO THAT GOING FORWARD TO
THANK YOU.
ARE THOSE IN OPPOSITION
[inaudible]
YOU WANNA [inaudible]
WOODEN.
YEAH JUST TO FROM THERE THAT'S
FINE -- MY NAME IS MICHAEL GERRY.
I AM THE ATTORNEY THAT
REPRESENTS UTILITY CUSTOMERS
BEFORE THE UNITED STATES SUPREME
COURT IN CALIFORNIA'S WILDFIRE
CASE I ALSO TRIED THE CASE.
IN WHICH WE WERE ABLE TO SHOW AS
THE GENIE WAS NOT PRUDENT.
IN CONNECTION WITH RECOVERING
FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS IN
THE TWO THOUSAND SEVEN FIRES.
I'M GONNA SPEAK STRICTLY ABOUT
APPROPRIATIONS.
AND NOTHING ELSE BUT
APPROPRIATIONS.
YOU ARE GOING TO BE SIGNING OFF
ON ABOUT TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY
BILLION DOLLARS.
OF ADDITIONAL RATES. FOR UTILITY
CUSTOMERS BETWEEN NOW AND THE
NEXT FIFTEEN YEARS [inaudible]
UNLESS [inaudible]
SOMEHOW.
WE DON'T HAVE THE SAME NUMBER
[inaudible]
OF FIRES.
RIGHT NOW THE PROJECTIONS ARE
THE FIRES WILL BE EQUAL TO OR
GREATER THAN WHAT WE'VE ALREADY
HAD.
SO WHAT YOU'RE BEING ASKED TO
INVEST IN.
IS THE CREATION OF COMMITTEES.
THERE ALREADY IS IN THE CPUC A
SAFETY DIVISION.
AND THEY'RE VERY VERY GOOD
PEOPLE.
BUT THEY HAVEN'T BEEN PERMITTED
TO DO THEIR JOBS THEY HAVE BEEN
GIVEN THE STAFF.
YOU HAVEN'T GIVEN THE BUDGET.
BAKER DID NOT DO WHAT HE WAS
SUPPOSED TO DO AND PEAVEY
CERTAINLY DIDN'T DO WHAT HE WAS
SUPPOSED TO DO [inaudible]
SO.
THEN THE QUESTION IS THIS YOU'RE
BETTING EVERYTHING ON THIS PIE
IN THE SKY.
WE'RE GOING TO REDUCE THE NUMBER
OF FIRES IN THE FUTURE.
YOUR VETTING THE ENTIRE WELFARE
THE ENTIRE FINANCIAL WELL FOR OF
THE STATEOF CALIFORNIA.
ON THAT PROVISION.
THAT'S VERY SIMILAR. TO WHAT YOU
WERE TOLD BACK IN.
TWO THOUSAND WHEN YOU SAID THAT
THE RATES WHEN THEY SAID THE
RATE WE'RE GOING TO GO DOWN IF
YOU JUST LET ALL THE GENERATION
GO OFF TO THE OUT OF STATE
GENERATORS THAT WOULD LOWER THE
RATES.
AND THAT WAS FALSE THEN.
EDIT BANKRUPTED YOU ALMOST THE
CITY THE KIDS THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA IT RUINED POLITICAL
CAREERS.
ANDYOU'RE BEING ASKED TO DO THE
SAME THING ALL OVER AGAIN.
LAST THING.
THE UTILITIES ARE NOT TAKING
EVEN AS OF TODAY.
ANYTHING YOU'RE DOING TO REDUCE.
THE POSSIBILITY OF FIRES I FOUND
ON JULY THIRD.
I HAVE THE LETTER RIGHT HERE ON
JULY THIRD.
P. JEANNIE WROTE.
AND TELL THE HEAD OF THE SAFETY
DIVISION IS IF YOU SEE.
THEY HADN'T GOTTEN THE
MAINTENANCE DONE ON THE HIGH
FIRE AREAS -- IN FOUR HUNDRED
DIFFERENT INSTANCES AND THEY
JUST WERE GOING TO DO IT BECAUSE
HE DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO GET TO IT.
AND THEY WERE TOO BUSY IN THE
WEATHER WASN'T GOOD THEY
COULDN'T FIND THE PEOPLE AND THE
LETTERS RIGHT HERE SIGNED.
JULY THE THIRD.
SO I JUST ASK YOU TO DO THIS.
BEFORE YOU BUY THIS PIG IN A
POKE.
OKAY BEFORE YOU AGREE WITH
ASSEMBLYMAN HOLDEN WHO I HAVE
GREAT RESPECT FOR BUT TO WHOSE
OFFICE LAST YEAR I WENT TO AN AD
BEG THEM. TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT
FIRE SAFETY AND THEY SAID NO
WE'RE GONNA DO REGIONALIZATION
INSTEAD AND THEY WASTE ALL LAST
YEAR AND REGIONALIZATION AND SET
A FIRE SAFETY I THOUGHT YOU WERE
GONNA STICK TO THE FINANCE.
I AM GOING TO STICK TO THE
FINANCES BUT MY POINT WHERE FOR
THAT ALL RIGHT WELL OF THE
FINANCES OF THIS.
IF IF IF YOU BELIEVE.
THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE A
REDUCE A REDUCTION -- OF FIRES.
THEN THIS WOULD MAKE SOME SENSE.
FINANCIALLY.
BUT IN ORDER FOR THAT TO HAVE
CREDIBILITY YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT
WHAT'S BEING TOLD TO AND WHETHER
THE PEOPLE THAT ARE TELLING YOU
THINGS.
HAVE CREDIBILITY AND WHEN
ASSEMBLYMAN HOLDEN TELLS YOU
THAT HE'S BEEN WORKING ON THIS
FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS THAT'S
SIMPLY NOT TRUE.
HE WAS WORKING ON
REGIONALIZATION ALL LAST YEAR
AND YOU KNOW WHAT BECAUSE THAT
WAS A BIG ISSUE LAST YEAR SO I
JUST ASK YOU PLEASE.
BEFORE YOU VOTE FOR THIS.
SUBJECT THE REPRESENTATIONS THAT
THERE'S GOING TO BE REDUCTIONS
IN FIRES TO SOME SORT OF
INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS AND NOT
JUST BY IT.
AS IF THE THE IN A CONSUMER TYPE
FRAUD [inaudible]
THANK YOU.
ANYONE ELSE IN OPPOSITION.
SING THEN RESTORING CASALE YOU
HAVE A MOTION FROM A STRIKE
CASKEY ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.
MISTER ROGERS ON THEM THANK YOU
AT THE WE'RE GOING TO AND THEN
WE'LL COME TO YOU OKAY.
GO AHEAD. FIVE PICKING UP ON THE
QUESTION ABOUT FIRE SAFETY IN
THE ABILITY TO REDUCE OUR BUYERS
IN THE FUTURE HAS A LOT TO DO
WITH THE REQUIREMENT OF THE
UTILITIES TO DO HARDENING.
WE HAVE A FIVE BILLION DOLLAR
AMOUNT DOUBTS YEAH YOU KNOW
STATED HERE GOES THE HARDENING
IS THAT REALLY ENOUGH BASED ON
WHAT WE KNOW.
I THINK WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO
IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAD --
SOME CONTRIBUTION TO THAT THERE
WAS GUARANTEED FROM THESE
UTILITIES I THINK THAT WE ARE
BELIEVE THAT -- WILL GET US A
LONG WAY DOWN THE ROAD AND SO --
I WOULD SUGGEST THAT THAT IS
SUFFICIENT AT THIS POINT BUT YOU
KNOW AS WE'RE WE'RE WE'RE GIVING
OUR BEST EFFORT TO TRY TO
UNDERSTAND HOW TO TO STAY AHEAD
OF THESE.
CATASTROPHIC WILDFIRES IN THE
IMPACT THAT THEY SEEM TO BE
HAVING ON COMMUNITIES.
THE RANGERS SEEMS TO BE HUGE
FIVE BILLION TO THIRTY BILLION
IS ANOTHER NUMBER AND HIM BALFE
NOT PLUGGED INTO WHAT WE'RE
PROVIDING HERE AND I'D LIKE TO
ASK AND IF MY TIME IF I THINK IF
EMPLOYERS SAY ON IT.
GET IT WOULD YOU RUN OVER THE
NUMBERS ONE MORE TIME FOR ME
BECAUSE WHEN YOU STARTED YOU
SAID TO THE WE HAVE THE
INSURANCE FUND WHICH IS GOING TO
BE THE PREFERABLE -- VEHICLE IN
ITS TEN AND A HALF BILLION
DOLLARS THAT SHAREHOLDERS.
IS TEN I HAVE BILLION FROM THE
SURCHARGE AND THEN WE GOT TO
FORTY MILLION AND SOMEHOW I MISS
WHAT HAPPENED IN BETWEEN THERE.
THE FORTY BILLION OF THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWENTY
NINE AND THE FORTY COMES FROM
TWO SETS OF THINGS ONE IS
BASICALLY.
THE VALUE TO CLAIMS PAYING
RESOURCES OF CAPPING THE PAY
OUTS -- TO INSURANCE THAT ARE
RECOVERING COSTS SO THAT'S THE
BIG CONTRIBUTOR THE OTHER ONE IS --
IS RE INSURANCE AND THAT IS A
SMALLER ELEMENT BUT BUT THAT'S
THAT'S HOW WE GET FROM TWENTY
ONE TO FORTY BILLION OF CLAIMS
PAYING CAPACITY.
THEN -- ANOTHER QUESTION BEFORE
I TAKE ALL THE TIME.
IF STATED IN THE LEGISLATION OR
THE ANALYSIS ANYWAY HAT IS RATE
PAYER NEUTRAL EXPLAIN HOW THAT
HAPPENS Là IN THE PRESENT AND
THE FUTURE.
OF THE RAPIER NEUTRAL COMPONENTS
SPEAKS TO THE CONDITIONS THAT P.
GENIE IS GOING TO HAVE TO MEET
BEFORE HAS ACCESS. TO TO THE
FUND SO BEFORE -- P. JEANNIE CAN
HAVE ACCESS TO THE FUND -- P.
JEANNIE HAS TO HAVE A PLAN OF
REORGANIZATION.
BY NEXT BY JUNE THIRTIETH OF
NEXT YEAR THAT IS APPROVED BY
THE COURT AND THAT IS APPROVED
BY THE PC.
THE UC HAS TO CERTIFY THAT IT
MEETS A SERIES OF CONDITIONS
INCLUDING THAT IT BE RATE PAYER
NEUTRAL THAT IT PROVIDED -- FOR
FOR COMPENSATION TO VICTIMS --
IN FULL IN THAT MANNER -- IN THE
MANNER -- APPROVED BY THE COURT
THAT IT -- THAT PROVIDE THE
FOUNDATION -- FOR FOR FOR PGA
NEED TO MEET ALL STATE RUN
RELEVANT STATE REQUIREMENTS
INCLUDING THE OUR PS STANDARDS.
AS WELL AS THAT IS -- THE PC
CONSIDER THE RAPIER
CONTRIBUTIONS TO OUR A AND
PROVIDES ADEQUATE -- ADJUSTMENTS
INCLUDING THE POSSIBILITY OF
VALUE SHARING SO THE THE THE THE
PLAN HAS TO BE APPROVED BY THE
COURT AND THEN THE PC WILL HAVE
TO CERTIFY THESE ELEMENTS IN ONE
OF THE CERTIFICATION CRITERIA.
IS THAT THE RESOLUTION OF THE
BANKRUPTCY BE RAPIER NEUTRAL
MEANING THAT THE PAYMENTS -- FOR
FOR VICTIMS THAT HAS TO BE DONE
IN FULL IN A MANNER DETERMINED
BY THE BANKRUPTCY COURT HAS TO
COME FROM SHAREHOLDERS OR OTHER
ELEMENTS NOT FROM A REPAIR
RECOVERY.
SO IF THEY DIDN'T MEET THOSE
CONDITIONS IT WOULD FALL ON THE
SHAREHOLDERS IF THEY DON'T MEET
THOSE IF THEY DON'T MEET THOSE
CONDITIONS THEY WILL NOT HAVE
ACCESS TO THE FUND SO THEY THEY
THE THIS CREATES BOTH.
THE MAN THE CREATES THE PATH FOR
THE RESOLUTION OF THE BANKRUPTCY
IN A WAY THAT IS FAIR TO
RATEPAYERS AND THAT IS FAIR TO
VICTIMS AND IT BASICALLY
ESTABLISHES THE DEADLINE FOR
THAT.
IT BASICALLY SAYS IF THEY WANT
TO AVAIL THEMSELVES OF THE TOOLS
THAT YOU'D BE PROVIDING IN THIS
MEASURE.
THEY HAVE -- TO MEET THOSE
CRITERIA IF THEY DON'T THEN.
THEN THEY THEY DON'T HAVE THE
MECHANISM TO THE TOOLS THAT
PROVIDE THE STABILITY TO ALLOW
THE EXIT OUT OF BANKRUPTCY SO
IT'S IT'S A BIG INCENTIVE FOR
THEM TO GET THE BANKRUPTCY
RESOLVE TO GET THE BANKRUPTCY
RESOLVED IN A TIMELY MANNER AND
TO DO IT IN A WAY.
WE'RE RATE PAYERS AND VICTIMS
ARE PROTECTED.
BUT MISTER IF I CAN JUST HAVE
BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS
IS THIS POINT IS CLEAR IS THAT
ALSO IN REGARDS THE DEED OF YOUR
CHARGE THE PORTION TO FIND THIS
FROM RATE PAYERS DOESCOME FROM
THAT SEARCH CHARGES CAN EXTEND
OUT THAT WAS GOING TO EXPIRE.
AND THAT DOES EXTEND OUT INTO
TWENTY THIRTY SIX YEAH I
UNDERSTOOD THAT ONE THANKS
[inaudible]
THE ASPEN.
THIS RAZA.
YES ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT I
BROUGHT UP -- SINCE EARLY ON IS
HOW THE SAFETY CERTIFICATION
WOULD WORK -- AND TO ME THAT'S
NOT ONLY.
THAT OPENS THE DOOR RIGHT TO BE
ABLE.
TO GET THE GET ACCESS TO THE TO
THE FUNDS -- IN A BIG WAY IF YOU
HAVE A SAFETY CERTIFICATION THEN
IT'S UP.
TO WHOEVER. TO PROVE RUN THAT
THEY IN FACT DID NOT YOU KNOW --
ACT IN A IN A PRUDENT WAY SO MY
CONCERN IS HOW DO WE MAKE SURE
THAT WHO.
IS MAKING THAT DECISION.
HAS TO BE AS INDEPENDENT
[inaudible]
AS POSSIBLE.
AND WHAT IS MADE THE THRESHOLD
TO BE ABLE TO GET THAT SAFETY
CERTIFICATION IS ALSO A VERY
CRITICAL DECISION.
AND I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT NOT
ONLY SO THAT THIS DOESN'T BECOME.
YOU KNOW I'M EASY LOOPHOLE --
END OF MORE IMPORTANTLY FOR THE
TRUST OF THE PUBLIC IS THAT
THESE ARE.
THESE ARE YOU KNOW ONE WAY OR
ANOTHER THESE ARE.
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF OF THE
TRUST OF THE PUBLIC'S MONEY.
SO HOW DO HOW DO WE MAKE SURE
AND HOW DO WE MAKE SURE THAT
THAT PIECE OF IT.
IS REALLY A SOLID AND AS STRONG
AS IT NEEDS TO BE.
BUT A COUPLE OF ELEMENTS -- THAT
AT FIRST THERE'S A NEW -- A NEW
DIVISION FOCUSED EXCLUSIVELY ON
ON ON ON THE ELECTRICITY --
SAFETY IT STARTS WITH IN THE PC
BUT IT.
IT'S BECOMES AN INDEPENDENT
ENTITY WITHIN THE RESOURCES
AGENCY THAT IS EXCLUSIVELY
FOCUSED ON THIS.
ON THIS ISSUE -- WITHIN TWO
YEARS SECOND PIECE IS THERE BE A
NEW ADVISORY BOARD OF THAT WOULD
BE -- COMPRISED OF APPOINTEES BY
THE GOVERNOR THE THE ASSEMBLY
AND THE SENATE THAT WILL BE.
COMPRISED OF NATIONAL
INTERNATIONAL EXPERTS ON ISSUES
OF SAFETY AND ISSUES OF OF YOU
KNOW UTILITY UTILITY.
UTILITY SAFETY AND THE THIS IS A
RAPIDLY EMERGING FIELD SO THAT'S
PART OF WHY IT'S REALLY
IMPORTANT TO HAVE AN ENTITY
THAT'S GOING TO BE EXCLUSIVELY
FOCUSED ON THIS AS WELL AS
BENEFIT FROM THE EXPERTISE OF
NATIONAL INTERNATIONAL EXPERTS.
THERE WILL BE AN ANNUAL WHILE
FAR MITIGATION PLAN THERE WILL
BE PROGRESS REPORTS THERE WILL
BE A LOOK BACK -- MECHANISM AND
THIS WILL BE AN ANNUAL
CERTIFICATION PROCESS THAT WILL
BE DONE BY THE NEW ENTITY THERE
ALSO WILL BE FIELD A LOT IT'S AN
ACTUAL VERIFICATION ON THE
GROUND OF WHETHER FOLKS ARE
DOING WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO
BE DOING.
AND IT'S KIND OF A THE THE FIRST
YEAR IS GOING TO BE -- IT'S THE
FIRST YEAR THE PROCESS IS NOT AS
RIGOROUS AS IT IS INFUTURE
YEARS JUST BASED ON A REALITY OF
WHERE WE ARE.
BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF
MECHANISMS IN PLACE TO ENSURE
THAT NOT ONLY ARE THERE ROBUST
PLANS FOR THE THOSE PLANS ARE
BEING IMPLEMENTED THAT THERE ARE
PROGRESS REPORTS ASSOCIATED WITH
THAT AND THAT THERE'S ON THE
GROUND.
EXAMINATION OF WHETHER OR NOT
THINGS ARE BEING DONE AS THEIR
WAS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.
I WOULD JUST ADD TO THAT THAT
THE LEGISLATURE STILL HAS
OPPORTUNITY DO OVERSIGHT OF THIS
PROCESS THERE WILL BE REPORTS
THAT WILL COME BACK TO THE
LEGISLATURE THAT WILL HIGHLIGHT
AND DELINEATE WHAT KIND OF
PROGRESS IS BEING MADE TO WHAT
IS HAPPENING AND THEN WE HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY. TO CALL AND THE
FOLKS THAT WE NEED TO AND MAKE
SURE THAT.
WERE SATISFIED WITH THE KIND OF
PROGRESS IS BEING MADE.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.
YOU'RE GOOD YOU ONCE YOU HAVE
ALL YOUR ANSWERS.
EARLIER TODAY YOU.
ALMOST ALL WEEK.
ALL RIGHT MISTER JONES.
THANK YOU MISTER CHARGE WANT TO
GO BACK A REAL QUICK AND FOLLOW
UP ON THE RAY FAIR QUESTION --
IN UNDERSTANDING THAT THE
SURCHARGE ON UTILITY CUSTOMERS
WOULD BE ASSESSED BASED ON A
KILOWATT -- PROPER USAGE.
DOES THAT MEAN THAT THERE'S
GONNA BE DISPARITY IN RATE
PAYERS AND SPECIFICALLY BETWEEN
STORE CUSTOMERS AND NON SOBRE
CUSTOMERS.
RECOGNIZING THAT STILL THERE'S A
MINORITY OF ELECTRICAL CUSTOMERS
HAVE SOLAR -- BUT THE MAJORITY
IS ARE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T AFFORD
IT SO ORG OR DON'T WANT TO
CHOOSE TO HAVE SOLAR SO HOW DOES
THAT.
OUR ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT THERE
THERE COULD BE A DISPARITY ON
THAT.
YES THERE IS -- I MEAN I ONE OF
THEM.
WE WE COULD TALK ABOUT THIS IN
FACT EARLY ON WE WERE WE ARE
QUESTIONING WHETHER THE DICKS
EXTENDING THE W. OUR CHARGE WAS
THE PROPER THE PROPER CHARGE.
THE CHURCH THE TRUTH IS THIS IS
ME TALKING I'M IS THAT IT WAS A
PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE -- BACK
IN JANUARY FEBRUARY MARCH I HAD
SEVERAL PEOPLE COMING INTO MY
OFFICE TO TALK ABOUT THIS AND
EVERYONE'S AT ALL THE DEED OF
YOUR CHARGES EASIEST WAY TO DO
IT.
WHEN I HAD THROWN OUT THIS IDEA
OF DOING A PER METER CHARGE AND
MAYBE EVEN ON TRYING TO INCREASE
THAT FOR FOR FOR FOLKS THAT LIVE
IN THE THE MORE FIRE RISK PRONE
AREAS OF SAID HEY GUYS ONCE GO?
BRING HIS IDEAS UP BRING IT BACK
TO US NOT ONE IDEA -- CAME BACK
THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE WAS
EXTENDED AS THE W. ARE DEDUCTED
OF YOUR CHARGE AND THE TRUTH IS
FOR THE FOR FOR RATEPAYERS FOR
COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIAL IT'S IT'S
GONNA BE HIGHER THAN IT IS FOR
BROTHERS AND FOLKS IN BEEN
PLACES.
LIKE THE DESERT THAT I REPRESENT
THEY ME PAYING MORE THEY CAN BE
PAYING MORE THAN THE AT AND THEN
THOSE THAT ARE NEAR THE COAST
THAT'S THE THAT'S A FACT -- BUT
IT IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT --
I IT MAKES THE MOST SENSE AND IT
IS THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE
WILL BE ARGUING ABOUT THAT -- IT
FOR THE NEXT.
YEAR TWO YEARS TO TRY TO COME UP
WITH SOMETHING AND THAT WAS THE
PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE.
AT THANK YOU AND I APPRECIATE
YOUR CLARITY ON THAT AND THEN
ALL OF A AND ALSO YOUR OPENNESS.
YOU KNOW THAT THAT'S PROBABLY --
YOU KNOW ONE OF MY BIGGEST HANG
UPS ON THIS WHOLE CONCEPT IS THE
NEEDED WE ARE CHARGING.
I THINK FOR ME IT'S IT'S SMARTER --
HE YOU KNOW I REPRESENT A VERY
CYNICAL AREA OF THE STATE WHEN
IT COMES TO TRUSTING GOVERNMENT
AND YOU KNOW THIS IS A CHARGE IT
IS.
SCHEDULED TO GO AWAY AT A
CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME AND MY
CONSTITUENTS KNOW THAT.
AND AT TO COME BACK TO THEM IN
STATES BEING EXTENDED FOR
SOMETHING THAT WASN'T EVEN
ORIGINALLY PUT IN PLACE -- FOR
IS KIND OF MAKES IT TOUGH.
AND AND I DO APPRECIATE THAT
BECAUSE SOME OF YOUR
CONSTITUENTS THINK ABOUT LIKE
SOME OF MY CONSTITUENTS -- AND
AND THE QUESTION BEFORE US -- IS
IF IT'S NOT THIS THAN THAN WHAT
IS IT.
IF IT'S NOT -- PRE FUNDING WHICH
IS WHAT WE'RE ATTEMPTING TO DO
HERE THEN IT'S POST FUNDING WERE
WAITING TO THOSE INCIDENTS
OCCURS AND THEN THEY'RE GONNA BE
PAYING MORE.
AND IF IT'S NOT THAT THAT IT'S
COMEY BANKRUPTCY AND THEN YOUR
REPAIRS ARE GONNA BE PAYING MORE
BUT THE FACT IS IF WE DON'T ACT
ON THIS TODAY.
YOUR RATE PAYERS MY RATE PAYERS
WILL BE PAYING MORE WHICH IS WHY
I'M SUPPORTING THIS -- AND HAVE
BEEN SO AND URGING YOUR SUPPORT
FOR THIS AS WELL.
MR MAJOR MADE MY FINAL
CONCLUSION BETTER THAN I COULD
HAVE.
THANK YOU THIS BURKE YOU WANTED
AND I WAS JUST GOING TO BACK TO
THE W. R. FEES WE HAVE MET.
AS AS THE CO AUTHORS ALL OF MET
WITH THE LARGE INDUSTRIAL AND
AGRICULTURAL FOLKS AND OBVIOUSLY
THEY DID OF YOUR PIECES IT IS A
COST THAT THEY DID NOT
ANTICIPATE HOW WHETHER.
WE HAVE WORKED WITH THEM WE ARE
LOOKING AT A LOT OF THE OTHER
THINGS THAT WILL HELP OFFSET
SOME OF THOSE.
SOME O THOSE CHARGES WHETHER
THAT IS CUSTOMER GENERATE
CUSTOMER REGENERATION AND
REMOVING COUNTIES THERE ARE
OTHER THINGS ON THE TABLE I
THINK THAT ARE.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR US TO OFFSET
SOME OF THAT.
OKAY SIGNAL MORE QUESTIONS WE
HAVE A MOTION MR HOLDEN WOULD
YOU LIKE.
TO MAKE A BRIEF CLOSE.
A MAKE A VERY BRIEF -- EARLY
THIS MORNING -- AND USUALLY I
DON'T RESPOND -- TO CRITICISMS
BUT I THINK IT'S STILL.
PLACE -- WITH MISTER GERRY --
LAST YEAR.
I WAS A PART OF A AD HOC
COMMITTEE IN THE ASSEMBLY TO
LOOK AT THE ISSUES OF WELFARE IN
THE IMPACT UTILITIES CAME AND
THEY WERE VERY CONCERNED AT THE
VIA THE YEAR WE'VE BEEN WORKING.
FOR A MISS BURKE AND OTHERS WERE
ALSO VERY ENGAGED IN THAT KIND
OF A PROCESS AND I COACH HERE.
OF THE CONFERENCE COMMITTEE ON
NINE OH ONE SO.
YES WE WERE WORKING ON
REGIONALIZATION BUT THIS BECAME
MORE IMPORTANT THAN
REGIONALIZATION IF YOU WILL --
AND LAST YEAR WE HAD A GOVERNOR
WHO.
WAS VERY ENGAGED IN THIS AS WELL --
WERE VERY A PRIVILEGE TO HAVE A
GOVERNOR THIS YEAR WHO'S JUST AS
ENGAGED AND WE'RE TRYING TO PUT
FORTH THAT SOAP WAS WAS.
ELOQUENTLY.
OUTLINED A PROSPECTIVE SOLUTION --
TO INVOLVE THE SHAREHOLDERS IN
THIS PROCESS.
WHERE THEIR SKIN IN THE GAME?
AND THAT THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY
FOR PREDICTABILITY FOR THE RATE
PAYERS AND ALSO HAVE A MECHANISM
IN PLACE THAT VICTIMS ARE TAKING
CARE OF QUICKLY.
AND THAT THEY'RE NOT A DRAG
THROUGH COURTS AND PUT AT THE
BACK OF THE LINE AS THEY ARE
CURRENTLY -- AND SO WITH THAT I
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR EUROPE.
AND IF I COULD BE BACK ON YOUR
COMING I THINK LAST -- OUR PRIOR
GOVERNOR WAS FRANKLY MUCH MORE
INTERESTED IN REGIONALIZATION --
AT THAT TIME SO -- I DO THINK
IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT -- I
DON'T THINK ANYBODY -- ASSEMBLY
THE SENATE REPUBLICAN DEMOCRAT
DOESN'T WANT THIS TO WORK -- I
THINK THERE'S A THERE'S A NEED.
FOR ACTION IN THIS MISTER MAYES --
PUT IT TO THE ALTERNATIVES -- TO
ACTION ARE MUCH MORE SCARY THAN
TAKING THIS ACTION TODAY.
WHICH I THINK IS A PRUDENT STEPS
OBVIOUSLY THE CHAIR -- IS GONNA
RECOMMEND AN AYE VOTE AND WE
HAVE A MOTION AND WITH THAT WILL.
TAKE THE WORLD.
THE MOTION IS TO PASS TO THE
SENATE FLOOR PORTANTINO HI
PORTANTINO I'D BATES.

BRADFORD I'D RAZA.
