Team -looks like you did do a fine job in getting some good
concessions from the PUC on the OBMC. Please read the following... < -----Original Message----- < From: Stone, Dave < Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2001 11:31 AM < To: Dias, Keith; Jones, Edward; Hunter, Jim (FRM) < Subject: THE NEW OBMC < < Feels like we made lots of progress on the final OBMC. I think the < key points are as follows: < < First, they dropped the maximum reduction from 20% to 15%. < We are persuaded by many parties, however, that 20% for OBMC is < simply too onerous . . . We < adopt 15% . . . < < Second, they require the Utilities to help facilitate joint plans - < including an idea for how to < get it done - wonder where this idea came from? < We require utilities to facilitate joint curtailment plans . . . < one or more interested customers (or the utility) can arrange a meeting, < and prepare an < invitation. The utility can mail the invitation to all customers on an < individual circuit. The < utility can attend the meeting to help explain OBMC < < They eliminate the economic damage criteria < The current OBMC program requires that a customer meet the criteria for < economic damage < We are persuaded to eliminate the criteria altogether < < Finally, I think the following gives us some room to work with PG&E on how < this might < actually work, meaning from the baseline or to the baseline < The customer's plan must show how reduction on the entire circuit can be < achieved in various increments, and how compliance can be monitored and < enforced. The burden is on the customer < to demonstrate that the proposal is realistic, workable, measurable, and < enforceable. At the same < time, we direct respondent utilities to use the OBMC program as an < opportunity to work with each interested customer to reach a < solution not only in the best interest of that customer, but in the < overall best interest of the electrical system. <
