I know that it is a finesse but I would rather not have a specific date
(although we would prefer a specific date relative to no clarity on this
matter):

If I were writing it it would something like:
In no case shall the rate freeze, as defined by AB1890, end before the CPUC
has determined replacement rates. And in no case shall such determination of
replacement rates, beyond the end of AB 1890 term (Mar 2002).

Such wording means supports our claim of negative ctc up to new setting of
rates. It also allows us to argue with customers that we switched them for
their own good.

Subject: Conversations with Customers on Date Certain for End of Rate Freeze
in Legislation

I've left messages describing our idea with TURN and the large
cogenerators/marketers/producers, and I've spoken with the Farm Bureau and
the California Manufacturers Association. The Bureau and CMA agree with our
idea and I've asked them to "pass the word along" to other customer groups
and to try to ensure that its an integral part of the negotiations. I'll be
calling other customer groups and will report back on those conversations.

Best,
Jeff
