Greetings Michelle:

As we talked about it last week---and now that I'm back in the office, I'm
having folks check to make sure that this is 100% accurate:

Rates for core subscription customers are forecasted (I believe based on
previous month's gas prices).
Bills for core subscription customers are lagged (I believe by 30 days after
consumption).
The IOUs face a PBR mechanism that incents them to buy index (though they may
have engaged in a modest amount of hedging).
The California PUC issued an order (about 2 months ago) prohibiting noncore
customers from switching to core subscription status.

I'm back in the office today, and have folks checking on this. I need to pin
down with certainty 1) the forecast period, and 2) the bill lag period. Will
get back to you as soon as we get the info. If there's anything, just let me
know.

Best,
Jeff

Subject: SOCAL Gas Questions!

Art/Scott

I have been trying to locate the right person in the organization to assist
with some questions about Socal Gas.

Comment/Question: Tricon, an EES gas customer behind Socal, paid
significantly more for marketer gas service (IF SOCAL BORDER) in Q4 00'
when compared to the cost of gas for Socal Gas customers. How does Socal Gas
adjust for its cost of gas? Is there a delayed true-up mechanism??? What
options are available should the customer return to utility service?

Tricon has been asking for the information for over a week. I need an update
as soon as possible.

I appreciate your help. Call me at X35976 if you have any questions,

Michelle
