DWR and Utility are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Parties” and individually referred to as a “Party.”
BACKGROUND
A.
Under the Act, DWR is authorized to sell electric power and energy to Customers. Amounts payable by DWR under this Servicing Order are payable solely from the Department of Water Resources Electric Power Fund established pursuant to Section 80200 of the California Water Code or other appropriated amounts legally available therefor.
B.
Utility is engaged in, among other things, the transmission and distribution of electrical services to certain of the Customers in its service territory, the billing and collection for electrical services and other charges, and the ownership, installation and reading of electrical meters for certain of such Customers.
C.
Under the Act, DWR is authorized to enter into contracts with the Utility to provide transmission and distribution of all power sold or made available for sale by DWR to certain of the Customers, and, upon request of DWR, the Commission has ordered Utility to provide such transmission and distribution services, including the provision of billing, collection and related services, as agent for DWR, on terms and conditions that reasonably compensate Utility for its services.
D.
On June 23, 2001, the Parties entered into a Servicing Agreement, as amended and approved by the Commission pursuant to D.01-09-013, to set forth the terms under which Utility will provide for the transmission and distribution of DWR Power as well as billing and related services.
E.
On February 21, 2002, the Commission adopted D.02-02-051, approving and adopting a Rate Agreement between the Commission and DWR.
F.
On April 22, 2002, the Commission approved the First Amended and Restated Servicing Agreement, pursuant to D.02-04-048, to comply with D.01-09-013 to implement certain provisions of the Rate Agreement. Said First Amended and Restated Servicing Agreement was further amended by Amendment No. 1 approved by the Commission on July 17, 2002, pursuant to D.02-07-038 to provide for a separate line item on the Utility Bills for Bond Charges and to implement the 2002 20/20 Program as ordered by the Commission pursuant to Resolution E-3770.
G.
On September 19, 2002, the Commission adopted D.02-09-053 relating to the allocation of DWR’s power contracts, ordering the Parties to modify the previously approved servicing agreement to reflect the new operational arrangements under said contract allocation decision issued by the Commission.
H.
On December 19, 2002, pursuant to D.02-12-069, the Commission adopted an Operating Order which established the respective rights and responsibilities with respect to the Utility’s administration of the Allocated Contracts and, on that same date, the Commission further adopted D.02-12-070, imposing the 2003 Servicing Order on the Utility.
I.
Through other proceedings, the Commission also determined the cost responsibility of certain Customers, other than Bundled Customers, for Bond Charge and the ongoing DWR power charge component.
J.
Section 10(a) of the 2003 Servicing Order provided that Parties are to negotiate appropriate amendments to effectuate the required changes upon certain events, including the implementation of Bond Charges and the imposition of a DWR Charge upon customers of ESPs or other third-parties.
K.
In Appendices D-1, D-2, E-1 and E-2 to Attachment B and in reporting templates contained in Attachment C of the 2007 Servicing Order, DWR has identified and included certain Customer Types who do not currently remit DWR Charges. Unless specifically provided elsewhere in this Servicing Order, the Utility and DWR acknowledge that the collection and remittance of DWR Charges from such Customer Types will not begin until Applicable Commission Orders that require the Utility to perform such services are final and effective.
L.
DWR and Utility amended the 2003 Servicing Order to reflect the remittance methodologies and obligations applicable to DWR Revenues, consisting of DWR Charges collected from Customers and DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues, all as previously provided in Applicable Commission Orders and State law, and such amendments were adopted in the 2007 Servicing Order adopted pursuant to D.07-03-025.

Delivery of Power.
Pursuant to the Act and Applicable Commission Orders, Utility is ordered to transmit, or provide for the transmission of, and distribute DWR Power to Bundled Customers over Utility’s transmission and distribution system in accordance with Applicable Law, Applicable Tariffs and any agreements between the Parties.
2.2.
Data and Information Communications Procedures.
(a)
Prior to the Operating Order Effective Date, Utility estimated customer usage and Utility-retained generation for a given trade day and communicated the net of such estimate to DWR by 7:00 a.m. on the preceding Utility Business Day. In the event that DWR observed a persistent deviation between estimated customer usage and actual customer usage, or between estimated Utility-retained generation and actual Utility-retained generation, DWR requested Utility to review, and Utility promptly commenced the review of, Utility’s forecast methodology and reported the results of such review to DWR; provided, however, that Utility had no obligation to correct or minimize such deviation except as provided in Attachment H of the 2003 Servicing Order.
(b)
Prior to the Operating Order Effective Date, DWR agreed to send to Utility in writing each day the Scheduling Coordinator-to-Scheduling Coordinator Trade between DWR and Utility. This information was delivered no later than 9:30 a.m. for trades in the Day-Ahead Market for the following day, and no later than two hours and twenty minutes prior to the start of the delivery hour for trades in the Hour-Ahead Market. Utility was ordered, and DWR agreed to separately provide these schedules to the ISO prior to the close of the respective markets. The above deadlines for DWR were set because the ISO Day-Ahead Market closed at 10:00 a.m. on the day before delivery and the ISO Hour-Ahead Market closed two hours before the delivery hour. If these closing times should change, the deadlines for submission of DWR data to Utility were to have changed proportionately, which revised deadlines were to be confirmed in writing by DWR and Utility. DWR agreed that, upon Utility’s request, DWR would supply information to Utility substantiating to Utility’s reasonable satisfaction (i) the total amount of energy purchased by DWR in the Day-Ahead Market and Hour-Ahead Market; and (ii) other such information that may be required for Utility to verify the DWR Charges, or any component thereof, including information regarding the allocation of such energy among Customers and other third parties to the extent so required.
Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.2, upon the Operating Order Effective Date, Utility is to schedule and dispatch Power as provided in the Operating Order and the Utility is directed to comply with the data and information communications procedures set forth in the Operating Order.
(c)
Consistent with Applicable Commission Orders and as provided elsewhere in this Servicing Order, on and after the Effective Date of the 2007 Servicing Order, Utility was ordered to remit each component of DWR Charges from each Customer Type, all as further provided in Attachment B hereto and each of the Appendices appended thereto. Each component of DWR Charges was ordered to be remitted at the applicable Commission-approved rate. The basis for remittance of DWR Charges shall be amounts collected from Customers, consistent with Applicable Commission Orders. If either Party obtains actual knowledge of a material flaw in the procedures or methods set forth in this Servicing Order, and such flaw has a material adverse effect on (i) the delivery of Services (including, without limitation, the timely and accurate remittance of DWR Charges and DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues to DWR), or (ii) the timely and accurate payment to Utility of compensation for Services hereunder, the discovering Party shall bring such flaw to the attention of the other Party within a reasonable time. Upon the delivery of such notice, the Parties shall conduct good faith negotiations to resolve such flaw. Without limiting any other terms, express or implied, of this Servicing Order or any other agreement between the Parties, the Parties acknowledge that the two preceding sentences do not impose an independent obligation to perform any investigation or monitoring to discover any such flaw.
(d)
Prior to the MRTU Effective Date, Utility shall perform surplus Power sales consistent with the Contract Allocation Order and the Operating Order. Utility shall also calculate and remit DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues consistent with the Contract Allocation Order and the Operating Order. The basis for remittance of DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues shall be amounts collected by Utility from third parties for sales of surplus Power, consistent with the principles set forth in Exhibit C of the Operating Order and in accordance with the Contract Allocation Order, all as further provided in Service Attachment 2 hereto.
(e)
On and after the MRTU Effective Date, Utility shall remit each component of DWR Charges from each Customer Type, all as further provided in this 2010 Servicing Order, consistent with the amendments set forth in the Operating Order submitted to the Commission concurrently with this 2010 Servicing Order. These amendments are consistent with the principles set forth in that certain Memorandum of Understanding, dated as of February 4, 2009.
(f)
All data and information to be exchanged between the Parties in connection with scheduling and settlement of transactions shall be in the format agreed to by Utility and DWR and shall, except as otherwise provided by this Servicing Order or Applicable Tariffs, or as may be approved by Utility in its reasonable discretion, be submitted electronically. If a Party receives any information that is unreadable, or contains data that cannot be processed by the receiving Party’s system, or is otherwise damaged, such receiving Party shall inform the sending Party of such problem. Until any such problem is corrected, the receiving Party shall not be responsible for processing information received in this condition. The foregoing notwithstanding, a receiving Party shall not be excused from its obligation to process information if the receiving Party cannot read or otherwise process the information sent by the sending Party as a result of defects, errors, bugs, or viruses in the receiving Party’s systems or software or due to negligence or wrongful act(s) or failure(s) to act on the part of the receiving Party’s employees, agents, independent contractors, subcontractors or assigns.
2.3.
Ownership of DWR Power, Surplus Power, Utility-Provided Electric Power and DWR Revenues.
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, and in accordance with the Act and Section 80110 of the California Water Code, DWR shall retain title to all DWR Power sold by DWR to Bundled Customers or, prior to the MRTU Effective Date, any surplus Power sold by Utility on DWR’s behalf, in accordance with the terms of the Operating Order and consistent with the Contract Allocation Order. In accordance with the terms hereof and the Operating Order, as the case may be, Utility is acting solely as the servicing agent for DWR with respect to all components of DWR Charges collected from Customers and, prior to the MRTU Effective Date, with respect to sales of surplus Power to third-party purchasers, and nothing in this Servicing Order should be construed to suggest other than that DWR shall retain title to all DWR Charges and, prior to the MRTU Effective Date, DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues.
In accordance with the Act and Section 80104 of the California Water Code, upon the delivery of DWR Power to Bundled Customers or, prior to the MRTU Effective Date, the sale of surplus Power to third-party power purchasers made by Utility on behalf of DWR, those Bundled Customers and third-party power purchasers, shall be deemed to have purchased that power from DWR, and payment for any such sale shall be a direct obligation of such Customers or third-party purchasers, as the case may be, to DWR. In accordance with Applicable Law, Cost Responsibility Surcharges are recovered from Direct Access Customers, Customer Generation Departing Load Customers, Municipal Departing Load Customers or Community Choice Aggregation Customers. Utility shall collect and remit such Cost Responsibility Surcharges, all as further provided in this Servicing Order.
All DWR Revenues and DWR Charges shall constitute property of DWR. To the extent any monies are received by the Utility during the process of collection, and pending their transfer to DWR, including any amounts collected under Non-Utility Bills and remitted to Utility by a Non-Utility, the monies shall be held by the Utility in trust for the benefit of DWR (whether or not held together with other monies). Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Utility shall retain title to all Utility-Provided Electric Power supplied by Utility to Customers and all surplus Power provided by Utility.
2.4.
Allocation of DWR Power and DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues.
DWR Power will be allocated pursuant to the Act and other Applicable Law and Applicable Tariffs.

Prior to the MRTU Effective Date, the treatment of surplus Power shall be governed by the Contract Allocation Order and the Operating Order, and as further provided in Service Attachment 2 hereto.
Section 3.
Billing Services.
3.1.
Provision of Services by Utility.
(a)
Except to the extent that such Services are provided by a third-party, Utility shall provide metering services, meter reading services and Billing Services relating to (i) the Power Charge remittances with respect to each applicable Customer Type provided in the Appendices to Attachment B hereto, and (ii) the Bond Charge remittances with respect to each applicable Customer Type provided in the Appendices to Attachment B hereto. If Non-Utility Bills are involved in the Utility’s performance of Billing Services, Utility shall calculate the amount of any applicable DWR Charges to be collected through Non-Utility Bills, all as further provided in this Servicing Order. Utility-provided metering services, meter reading services and Billing Services shall be provided in accordance with Applicable Law, Applicable Commission Orders, Applicable Tariffs and Service Attachment 1 hereto, as well as Attachment B and its Appendices.
(b)
In the case where Non-Utility Bills are used by the Utility in the billing and collection of any component of DWR Charges under Applicable Law, Utility shall include such necessary and appropriate provisions in the Applicable Tariffs and any applicable servicing arrangements so that any component of DWR Charges billed and collected by such Non-Utility are remitted to Utility. Utility is directed to accept payment from such Non-Utility in respect of each applicable component of DWR Charges billed and collected through Non-Utility Bills in such forms and methods and at such times and places as the Utility and each Non-Utility shall mutually agree in accordance with Applicable Commission Orders and Applicable Tariffs. Upon remittance of any amounts by the Non-Utility to Utility for any applicable component of DWR Charges, Utility is directed to hold such charges in trust for the benefit of DWR (whether or not held together with other monies) and promptly remit and account for such amounts to DWR consistent with Applicable Law.
(c)
Prior to the MRTU Effective Date, Utility shall sell surplus Power on behalf of DWR, and provide invoicing and collection of amounts owed by third parties for such surplus Power sales made by Utility on DWR’s behalf and the allocation of such revenues to DWR. Surplus Power sales made by Utility on DWR’s behalf, including the invoicing and collection of amounts owed by third parties and credit risk management, shall be conducted by Utility in accordance with Applicable Commission Orders, including but not limited to, the Contract Allocation Order, Applicable Tariffs, the Operating Order and Service Attachment 2 hereto.
(d)
On behalf of DWR, Utility shall (i) follow its customary standards, policies and procedures in performing its duties hereunder and (ii) perform its duties hereunder using the same degree of care and diligence that Utility exercises for its own account.
(e)
For surplus Power sales to third parties, prior to the MRTU Effective Date, Utility shall apply prudent credit risk management criteria to ensure that such purchasers meet or exceed DWR credit criteria, or in the absence of such DWR designated criteria, and then consistent with industry accepted credit standards. If Utility sells surplus Power to an entity that requires collateral, the cost and obligation to post such collateral shall be Utility’s responsibility.
(f)
Prior to the MRTU Effective Date, Utility shall be responsible for all transaction fees or other costs associated with the sale of surplus Power imposed by third-party purchasers or any agents of Utility or such purchaser, all as further provided in Exhibit C of the Operating Order.
3.2.
Modification of Billing and Metering Systems.
Utility shall have the right to modify and replace its billing and metering systems, subject to the requirements of Applicable Law, if any. However, to the extent that such modifications and replacements materially interrupt Services provided by Utility to DWR, Utility shall provide to DWR, as soon as reasonably practicable, prior written notice of any such changes, including, but not limited to, such changes as are required by Applicable Law or Applicable Commission Order(s). Moreover, to the extent any such modifications would affect the collection of DWR Charges or, prior to the MRTU Effective Date, DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues, in a manner which is different from the collection of Utility Charges or other Utility revenues, such as revenue from the sale of Power, Utility shall obtain DWR’s prior written consent to such modifications, which consent DWR agrees shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
3.3.
Customer Inquiries.
Utility shall address all Customer inquiries regarding DWR Charges. DWR agrees to provide all necessary information to Utility in order to permit Utility to respond to all Customer inquiries on a timely basis. In extraordinary circumstances, Utility will refer Customer inquiries to DWR in a manner to be agreed upon by the Parties. In the event that either (i) DWR’s failure to provide all such necessary information to Utility, (ii) DWR’s provision of inaccurate information or (iii) DWR’s failure to handle Customer inquiries referred to it by Utility in extraordinary circumstances in the manner agreed upon by the Parties results in Utility’s non-compliance with its obligations under this Section 3.3, such non-compliance will not constitute a material breach of this Servicing Order and will not give DWR the right to terminate this Servicing Order.
3.4.
Inquiries from Third Party Power Purchasers.
So long as Utility, as agent to DWR, sells surplus Power to third-party purchasers, Utility shall address all third-party purchasers’ inquiries regarding such surplus Power sales. If Utility and any third-party purchaser should have a dispute with respect to the sale of surplus Power, Utility shall resolve all such disputes. Utility shall apply the same practices to the resolution of such disputes as Utility uses to resolve disputes related to any other transaction with such third-party purchaser.

If the Utility determines that it has remitted amounts to DWR in error or DWR becomes aware of a material discrepancy in the remitted amounts, then DWR or the Utility, as the case may be, may provide notice of such event to the other Party (accompanied by an explanation of the facts surrounding such erroneous deposit), and the other Party will review such notice and information as soon as practicable and reach agreement as to such amount to be repaid. Such agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by either Party.
(b)
Each Remittance shall be accompanied by a Daily Remittance Report, substantially in the form set forth in Attachment C hereto. Utility will not be required at any time to advance or pay any of its own funds in the fulfillment of its responsibilities hereunder with respect to DWR Charges, except to the extent provided otherwise in the Attachments hereto.

The foregoing shall not limit Utility’s rights to seek any other remedies permitted under other arrangements with DWR.
(e)
Prior to the MRTU Effective Date, Utility shall calculate and remit DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues determined consistent with the Contract Allocation Order and Exhibit C of the Operating Order and as further provided in Service Attachment 2 hereto. Each monthly Remittance for surplus Power sold on behalf of DWR shall be accompanied by written reports in forms set forth in Attachment C hereto.
4.3.
20/20 Program and Future Similar Programs.
To the extent that the program established in the California Governor’s Executive Order D-30-01, dated March 13, 2001, and Executive Order D-33-01, dated April 26, 2001, as the foregoing orders may be amended, supplemented, extended or otherwise modified (the “20/20 Program”), obligated DWR to make payments or extend credits to Customers or other third parties under such program, Remittances to DWR may have been reduced by such payments to the extent of DWR’s responsibility as required by Applicable Law and Applicable Tariffs. DWR acknowledges that Utility’s reasonable initial implementation and recurring administrative costs associated with such program has been paid by DWR in the same manner and at the same times as Utility’s Set-Up Fee and Recurring Fees, respectively, as described in Sections 7.2 and 7.3 below. Additionally, Utility has invoiced DWR for any other costs incurred by Utility under such program, and DWR has paid such invoices as Additional Charges, in the manner contemplated in Section 7 below. The method for calculating reduced Remittances to DWR under this Section 4.3, as well as Utility’s implementation and administration costs, shall be as set forth in Attachment F hereto.
To the extent that, in the future, programs similar to the 20/20 Program are established which expressly obligate DWR under Applicable Law and Applicable Tariffs to make payments or extend credits to Customers or other third parties under such programs, DWR and Utility will implement processes similar to those used for the 20/20 Program as set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph or such other process, as may be mutually agreed upon by the Parties.
Section 5.

The term of this Servicing Order (the “Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and shall terminate on the earlier of (a) 180 calendar days after the last date DWR Charges are imposed on Customers, or (b) the earlier termination of this Servicing Order pursuant to this Section 5. This Servicing Order will also terminate as to each Contract, solely and individually, that is novated to Utility, without further action of either Party, but subject to Section 5.1(a) above with respect to such Contract.
5.2.
Events of Default by Utility.
The following events shall constitute “Events of Default” by Utility under this Servicing Order:

(b)
any failure by Utility to duly observe or perform in any material respect any other term or condition of Utility set forth in this Servicing Order, which failure (i) materially and adversely affects the interests or rights of DWR or its Assign(s), and (ii) continues unremedied for a period of sixty (60) calendar days after written notice of such failure has been given to Utility by DWR or its Assign(s).
5.3.
Consequences of Utility Events of Default.
Upon any Event of Default by Utility, DWR may, in addition to exercising any other remedies available under this Servicing Order or under Applicable Law, (i) apply to the Commission for appropriate relief, including but not limited to the termination of this Servicing Order in whole or in part (including Service Attachments); and (ii) apply to the Commission and, if necessary, any court of competent jurisdiction for sequestration and payment to DWR or its Assign(s) of DWR Revenues. Remittances not made to DWR by Utility on the date due (except to the extent Remittances were not made by operation of Sections 4.3, 7.2, 14.4 or Attachment B hereto) shall bear interest at the Prime Rate from the first day after the due date until the third Utility Business Day after the due date, and at the Late Payment Rate thereafter until paid.
5.4.
Defaults by DWR.
DWR agrees that it shall be in default under this Servicing Order upon:
(a)
subject to subsections (b), (c), (d) and (e) below, DWR’s failure to cure its material breach of any provision of this Servicing Order within sixty (60) calendar days after receiving written notice thereof from Utility;
(b)

(c)
Except for amounts to which DWR has objected in writing pursuant to Section 7.2, DWR’s failure to pay to Utility the initial implementation and recurring administrative costs associated with Utility’s implementation of the 20/20 Program, as provided in Section 4.3;

(e)
DWR’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions of Section 2.2 within fifteen (15) calendar days after receiving written notice thereof from Utility.
Upon any default by DWR under this Section 5.4, Utility may exercise any remedies available under this Servicing Order or under Applicable Law, provided that Utility shall have no right to terminate this Servicing Order either in whole or in part (including Service Attachment 1) or any obligation hereunder. DWR agrees that, except for amounts to which DWR has objected in writing pursuant to Section 7.2 and which are determined not to be owed, any Set-Up Fee or Recurring Fees, or any initial implementation and recurring administrative costs associated with Utility’s implementation of the 20/20 Program, as provided in Section 4.3, which are not paid to Utility on the date due shall bear interest at the Prime Rate from the first day after the due date until the third DWR Business Day after the date they are required to be made hereunder, and at the Late Payment Rate thereafter until paid. DWR further agrees that, except for amounts to which DWR has objected in writing pursuant to Section 7.2 and which are determined not to be owed, any other monetary obligation payable to Utility by DWR shall bear interest at the Prime Rate from the date due until 15 days after receiving written notice from Utility that such amount is overdue, and thereafter at the Late Payment Rate. DWR further agrees that when and to the extent that any amounts to which DWR has objected in writing pursuant to Section 7.2 are determined to be owing, such amounts shall bear interest from the due date at the rates described above for the applicable category of obligation.
5.5.
Survival of Payment Obligations.
Upon termination of this Servicing Order, DWR agrees that it, and it is ordered that Utility, shall remain liable to the other Party for all amounts owing under this Servicing Order. Utility shall continue to collect or cause to be collected and, in each case, remit, pursuant to the terms of this Servicing Order, including but not limited to Attachment B and Service Attachments hereto, any DWR Charges billed to Customers before the effective date of termination, and DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues attributable to surplus Power sales made prior to the MRTU Effective Date, except as provided in Attachment B hereto.
Section 6.
Confidentiality.
6.1.
Proprietary Information.
(a)
Nothing in this Servicing Order shall affect Utility’s obligations to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting the disclosure of Confidential Information regarding its Customers.
(b)
Nothing in this Servicing Order, and in particular nothing in Sections 6.1(e)(x) through 6.1(e)(z) of this Servicing Order, shall affect the rights of the Commission to obtain from Utility, pursuant to Applicable Law, information requested by the Commission, including Confidential Information provided by DWR to Utility. Applicable Law, and not this Servicing Order, will govern what information the Commission may disclose to third parties, subject to any confidentiality agreement between DWR and the Commission.
(c)
Each Party may acquire information and material that is the other Party’s confidential, proprietary or trade secret information. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means any and all technical, commercial, financial and customer information disclosed by one Party to the other (or obtained from one Party’s inspection of the other Party’s records or documents), including any patents, patent applications, copyrights, trade secrets and proprietary information, techniques, sketches, drawings, maps, reports, specifications, designs, records, data, models, inventions, know-how, processes, apparati, equipment, algorithms, software programs, software source documents, object code, source code, and information related to the current, future and proposed products and services of each of the Parties, and includes, without limitation, the Parties’ respective information concerning research, experimental work, development, design details and specifications, engineering, financial information, procurement requirements, purchasing, manufacturing, business forecasts, sales and merchandising, and marketing plans and information. In all cases, Confidential Information includes proprietary or confidential information of any third party disclosing such information to either Party in the course of such third party’s business or relationship with such Party. Utility’s Confidential Information also includes any and all lists of Customers, and any and all information about Customers, both individually and aggregated, including but not limited to Customers’ names, street addresses of Customer residences and/or facilities, email addresses, identification numbers, Utility account numbers and passwords, payment histories, energy usage, rate schedule history, allocation of energy uses among Customer residences and/or facilities, and usage of DWR Power. DWR agrees, and it is ordered with respect to Utility, that all Confidential Information disclosed by the disclosing Party (“Discloser”) will be considered Confidential Information by the receiving Party (“Recipient”) if identified as confidential and received from Discloser.
(d)
DWR agrees, and Utility is ordered to take all steps reasonably necessary to hold in trust and confidence the other Party’s Confidential Information. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding sentence, DWR agrees, and Utility is ordered (i) to hold the other Party’s Confidential Information in strict confidence, not to disclose it to third parties or to use it in any way, commercially or otherwise, other than as permitted under this Servicing Order; and (ii) to limit the disclosure of the Confidential Information to those of its employees, agents or directly related subcontractors with a need to know who have been advised of the confidential nature thereof and who have acknowledged their express obligation to maintain such confidentiality.
(e)
DWR agrees, and it is ordered with respect to Utility that the foregoing two paragraphs will not apply to any item of Confidential Information if: (i) it has been published or is otherwise readily available to the public other than by a breach of this Servicing Order ; (ii) it has been rightfully received by Recipient from a third party without breach of confidentiality obligations of such third party and outside the context of the provision of Services under this Servicing Order; (iii) it has been independently developed by Recipient personnel having no access to the Confidential Information; or (iv) it was known to Recipient prior to its first receipt from Discloser. DWR agrees, and it is ordered with respect to Utility that, in addition, Recipient may disclose Confidential Information if and to the extent required by law or a Governmental Authority, provided that (x) Recipient shall give Discloser a reasonable opportunity to review and object to the disclosure of such Confidential Information, (y) Discloser may seek a protective order or confidential treatment of such Confidential Information, and (z) Recipient shall make commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Discloser in seeking such protective order or confidential treatment. DWR agrees, and it is ordered with respect to Utility that Discloser shall pay Recipient its reasonable costs of cooperating.
6.2.
No License.
DWR agrees, and it is ordered with respect to Utility that nothing contained in this Servicing Order shall be construed as granting to a Party a license, either express or implied, under any patent, copyright, trademark, service mark, trade dress or other intellectual property right, or to any Confidential Information now or hereafter owned, obtained, controlled by, or which is or may be licensable by, the other Party.
6.3.
Survival of Provisions.
DWR agrees, and it is ordered with respect to Utility that the provisions of this Section 6 shall survive the termination of this Servicing Order.
Section 7.
Payment of Fees and Charges.
7.1.
Utility Fees.
DWR agrees that it will pay to Utility a fee, calculated in accordance with Attachment G hereto (the “Set-Up Fee”), in order to cover Utility’s costs of establishing the procedures, systems, and mechanisms necessary to perform Services. In addition, DWR also agrees to pay to Utility an annual fee, calculated in accordance with Attachment G hereto, payable monthly in arrears (unless a different payment schedule is mutually agreed upon by the Parties) as provided in Section 7.2 hereof (the “Recurring Fees”) for Services rendered pursuant to Section 3.1, Section 3.4 and Service Attachments to this Servicing Order. Additional fees to cover changes in costs or the costs of other services provided hereunder shall be as set forth in Attachment G, which from time to time may be modified by mutual agreement of the Parties or as provided in Applicable Commission Order. In the event that additional fees or costs are identified by Utility which have not been identified and included in Attachment G hereto, the Parties hereby agree to negotiate in good faith to determine the amount of such fees or costs. Except to the extent provided otherwise in subsequent agreements between the Parties, if the Parties are unable to resolve any disputes relating to such additional fees, either Party may, upon giving seven calendar days advance written notice to the other, submit the dispute to the Commission for proposed resolution, in accordance with Applicable Law. However, in the event such a dispute is submitted to the Commission by either Party, and prior to the Commission’s action, DWR agrees to continue to pay to Utility fees that will permit recovery of the Utility’s incremental cost of establishing procedures, systems and mechanisms necessary to perform Services as set forth in Attachment G. The Utility shall file these fees with the Commission. Utility acknowledges that the Commission may adjust, with notice to Utility and an opportunity for Utility to be heard, Utility’s rates to avoid double recovery of any costs paid by DWR hereunder which have already been included in Utility’s rates.
7.2.
Payment of Utility Fees and Charges.
The Set-Up Fee was due and payable on the effective date of the Servicing Agreement approved by the Commission pursuant to D.01-09-013, and DWR has paid Utility the Set-Up Fee, in the manner provided in Section 7.3 below. After receipt of Utility’s invoice thirty (30) days in advance, DWR agrees to pay to Utility its Recurring Fees in monthly installments by the 10th day of each month in the manner provided in Section 7.3 below. Additionally, with respect to all other fees and charges which are expressly identified as owing by DWR to Utility under this Servicing Order or such other amounts as mutually agreed to by the Parties (the “Additional Charges”), unless a different payment schedule is mutually agreed upon by the Parties, Utility shall (in paper format or, at DWR’s option, electronically) submit to DWR an invoice reflecting such Additional Charges for such calendar month. Any invoiced amount for Recurring Fees or Additional Charges shall be due and payable within three (3) DWR Business Days after presentation, and any invoiced amount and the Set-Up Fee shall be considered past due thirty (30) calendar days after presentation, after which interest shall accrue as provided in Section 7.4. To the extent that any invoiced amounts described in this Section 7.2 are not fully paid within forty-five (45) days after presentation, and DWR has not objected to Utility in writing by such date, DWR agrees that Utility shall have the right to deduct from any future Remittance(s) the unpaid and overdue amount which is not the subject of any such objection by such date, until such invoice is paid in full or until the dispute over the amount due has been resolved. In addition, upon written agreement of DWR, any amount payable under this Servicing Order may be deducted from any future Remittance(s) or be paid in such other periodic basis, all as expressly directed by DWR.
7.3.
Method of Payment.
(a)
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or unless a different payment schedule is mutually agreed upon by the Parties, DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered, that any payment from either Party to the other Party under this Servicing Order shall be made by ACH or, if ACH is unavailable, then by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated by the receiving Party or, if mutually agreed, paid by means of a check or warrant sent to the recipient’s address indicated in accordance with Section 14.14 hereof. Where the Parties have made arrangements for a bank or other third party to remit funds from one Party to the other Party, DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered that proper identification of the bank or third party, including the account number, shall be furnished in writing. DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered that the remitting Party shall reasonably cooperate in correcting any bank or other third-party errors and shall not be relieved of its payment responsibilities because of such errors.
(b)
Except as expressly provided otherwise herein or under any Applicable Law, Utility shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this Servicing Order (including any fees to and disbursements by accountants, counsel, or any other person, any taxes, fees, surcharges or levies imposed on Utility, and any expenses incurred in connection with reports to be provided hereunder) out of the compensation paid to it pursuant to this Section 7, and Utility shall not be entitled to any extra payment or reimbursement therefor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, if and to the extent any additional taxes (excluding taxes on Utility’s income), fees or charges are imposed on Utility due solely to Utility’s performance of Services hereunder with respect to DWR Charges (such as franchise fees or taxes on DWR Power, the State of California electric energy surcharge, local utility user taxes, or Commission fees), to the extent these taxes, fees, or charges are not already included in Utility’s rates and Utility has not been reimbursed therefor and is not authorized to seek reimbursement from Customers therefor, DWR agrees to reimburse Utility therefor as “Additional Charges” in accordance with Section 7.2.
7.4.
Interest.
DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered that except as provided in Sections 5.3, 5.4 or 7.5, any Delinquent Payment under this Servicing Order (whether or not a regularly scheduled payment) shall bear interest at the Late Payment Rate.
7.5.
Reconciliation Amounts.
If a change in Applicable Law (but only if and to the extent such change is expressly intended to be retroactive in effect) or the discovery of a “Material Flaw” results in a discrepancy between any amount paid hereunder and the amount that would have been paid if the changed Applicable Law had been in effect or the Material Flaw had been corrected, such discrepancy (a “Reconciliation Amount”) shall be paid by the party that benefited from the superseded Applicable Law or Material Flaw to the other party. Reconciliation Amounts shall be paid in full within 30 days after receipt of an invoice therefore unless a different payment schedule is mutually agreed upon between the parties. Interest on any Reconciliation Amount shall accrue from the original date on which the incorrect payment or remittance produced by the Material Flaw was due until such Reconciliation Amount is paid. Interest on any Reconciliation Amount shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- or 366- day year, as applicable, for the actual days elapsed. For a Reconciliation Amount due from Utility to DWR, interest shall accrue at the rate of interest on Commercial Paper (Financial, three-month maturity) published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 as described in Utility’s Preliminary Statement, II. Balancing Accounts, Section L, Energy Resource Recovery Account (ERRA), Subsection 5(q), or such other superseding account then in effect. Should the publication of the interest rate on Commercial Paper (Financial, three-month maturity) be discontinued, interest shall accrue at the rate of the most recent monthly interest rate on commercial paper that most closely approximates the rate that was discontinued, and which is published in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15, or its successor publication or such other rate as may be mutually agreed by the Parties. For a Reconciliation Amount due from DWR to Utility, interest shall accrue at the State’s Pooled Money Investment Account Rate in effect from time to time. If an outstanding Reconciliation Amount is not paid in full as of the date agreed upon by the Parties, any overdue amounts on and after such agreed upon date shall be considered Delinquent Payments and interest shall accrue at the Late Payment Rate from the date such overdue amount was due until paid, in accordance with Section 7.4.
For purposes of this Section, a “Material Flaw” is a procedure or method set forth in this Servicing Order, or an aspect thereof, which results in the payment or remittance of amounts to either Party (or the failure so to remit or pay) in a time, manner or amount that is inconsistent with Applicable Law. It is expressly agreed and understood that the undercollection or overcollection of amounts required to be collected under Section 80134 of the California Water Code due to incorrect projections of DWR’s revenue requirements or due to incorrect projections in the setting of DWR Charges shall not constitute a Material Flaw and are intended to be trued-up in subsequent revenue requirements.
Section 8.
Records; Audit Rights; Annual Certification.
8.1.
Records.
Utility shall maintain accurate records and accounts relating to DWR Revenues (including separate accounting of Bond Charges and Power Charges) in sufficient detail to permit recordation of Bond Charges and Power Charges billed to or caused to be billed to each Customer Type identified in the Appendices to Attachment B hereto and DWR Revenues from Bond Charges and Power Charges, respectively, remitted by Utility to DWR reflecting separate accounting with respect to each Customer Type. Prior to the MRTU Effective Date, Utility shall maintain accurate records and accounts relating to DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues (including separate accounting of surplus Power sales transactions by counterparty) in sufficient detail to permit recordation of DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues separate from other DWR Revenues, remitted by Utility to DWR. Utility shall provide to DWR and its Assign(s) access to such records. Access shall be afforded without charge, upon reasonable request made pursuant to Section 8.2. DWR agrees that access shall be afforded only during Business Hours and in such a manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with Utility’s normal operations. Utility shall not treat DWR Revenues as income or assets of the Utility or any affiliate for any tax, financial reporting or regulatory purposes, and the financial books or records of Utility and affiliates shall be maintained in a manner consistent with the absolute ownership of DWR Revenues by DWR and Utility’s holding of DWR Revenues in trust for DWR (whether or not held together with other monies).
8.2.
Audit Rights.

Upon thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice, DWR may request an audit, conducted by DWR or its agents (at DWR’s expense), of Utility’s records and procedures, which shall be limited to records and procedures containing information bearing upon: (i) DWR Charges being billed or caused to be billed to each Customer Type identified in the Appendices to Attachment B hereto by Utility (and payments of DWR Charges separately accounted for each Customer Type); (ii) fees to Utility for Services provided by Utility pursuant to this Servicing Order; (iii) Utility’s performance of its obligations under this Servicing Order; (iv) amount of Aggregate Power that is the basis for DWR Charges with respect to each Customer Type pursuant hereto or Applicable Law; (v) projection or calculation of DWR’s revenue requirements as described in Sections 80110 and 80134 of the California Water Code from time to time; (vi) prior to the MRTU Effective Date, DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues collected from third-party purchasers and the collection and allocation of such revenues; and (vii) such other matters as may be permitted by Applicable Commission Orders, Applicable Tariffs or as DWR or its Assign(s) may reasonably request. The audit shall be conducted during Business Hours without interference with Utility’s normal operations, and in compliance with Utility’s security procedures.
(b)
As provided in the Act, the State of California Bureau of State Audits (the “Bureau”) conducted a financial and performance audit of DWR’s implementation of Division 27 (commencing with Section 80000) of the California Water Code, such audit was to be completed prior to December 31, 2001, and the Bureau issued a final report on or before March 31, 2003. In addition, as provided in Section 8546.7 of the California Government Code, pursuant to this Section 8.2, Utility is ordered to permit DWR or the State of California Department of General Services, the Bureau, or their designated representative (“DWR’s Agent”) to review and to copy (at DWR’s expense) any non-confidential records and supporting documentation pertaining to the performance of this Servicing Order and to conduct an on site review of any Confidential Information pursuant to Sections 8.3 and 8.8 hereof. Utility shall maintain such records for such possible audit for three (3) years after final Remittance to DWR. Utility shall allow such auditor(s) access to such records during Business Hours and shall allow interviews of any employees who might reasonably have information related to such records. Further, Utility shall include a similar right for DWR or DWR’s Agent to audit records and interview staff in any contract between Utility and a subcontractor related to performance of this Servicing Order.
8.3.
Confidentiality.
Materials reviewed by either Party or its agents in the course of an audit may contain Confidential Information subject to Section 6 above. DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered that the use of all materials provided to DWR or Utility or their agents, as the case may be pursuant to this Section 8, shall comply with the provisions in Section 6 and shall be limited to use in conjunction with the conduct of the audit and preparation of a report for appropriate distribution of the results of the audit consistent with Applicable Law.
8.4.
DWR Requested Independent Reports.
On or after the Effective Date of this Servicing Order and at the request and expense of DWR, Utility shall cause a firm of independent certified public accountants (which may provide other services to Utility) to prepare, and Utility will deliver to DWR and its Assign(s), a report addressed to Utility (which may be included as part of Utility’s customary auditing activities), for the information and use of DWR, to the effect that such firm has performed certain procedures (the scope of which shall be agreed upon with DWR) in connection with Utility’s compliance with its obligations under this Servicing Order during the preceding year, identifying the results of such procedures and including any exceptions noted. Utility will deliver a copy of each report prepared hereunder to the Commission (at the address specified in section 14.14) at the same time it delivers each such report to DWR. Utility shall not be obligated to complete more than one report per year under this Section.
8.5.
Annual Certifications.
On or after the Effective Date of this Servicing Order, at least annually, and in no event later than the 30th day after the end of the calendar year, Utility shall deliver to DWR, with a copy to the Commission, a certificate of an authorized representative certifying that to the best of such representative’s knowledge, after a review of Utility’s performance under this Servicing Order, Utility has fulfilled its obligations under this Servicing Order in all material respects and is in compliance herewith in all material respects.
8.6.
Additional Applicable Laws.
DWR agrees, and Utility is ordered to make an effort to promptly notify the other Party in writing to the extent such Party becomes aware of any new Applicable Laws or changes (or proposed changes) in Applicable Tariffs hereafter enacted, adopted or promulgated that may have a material adverse effect on either Party’s ability to perform its duties under this Servicing Order. DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered that a Party’s failure to so notify the other Party pursuant to this Section 8.6 will not constitute a material breach of this Servicing Order, and will not give rise to any right to terminate this Servicing Order or cause either Party to incur any liability to the other Party or any third party.
8.7.
Other Information.
Upon the reasonable request of DWR or its Assign(s), Utility shall provide to the Commission and to DWR or its Assign(s) any public financial information in respect of the Utility applicable to Services provided by Utility under this Servicing Order, or any material information regarding the sale of DWR Power, surplus Power (prior to the MRTU Effective Date) or the collection of DWR Charges to the extent such information is reasonably available to Utility, which (i) is reasonably necessary and permitted by Applicable Law to monitor the performance by Utility hereunder, or (ii) otherwise relates to the exercise of DWR’s rights or the discharge of DWR’s duties under this Servicing Order or any Applicable Law. In particular, but without limiting the foregoing, Utility shall provide to DWR, with a copy to the Commission, any such information that is necessary or useful to calculate DWR’s revenue requirements (as described in Sections 80110 and 80134 of the California Water Code) or DWR Charges and, prior to the MRTU Effective Date, DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues.
8.8.
Customer Confidentiality.
Nothing in this Section 8 shall affect the obligation of Utility to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding Customers, and the failure of Utility to provide access to such information as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 8 or this Servicing Order.
Section 9.

Section 10.

Notwithstanding Section 5.4, if the Parties are unable to reach agreement on such amendments within sixty (60) days after the issuance of such decision or approval of such action, DWR may, and Utility shall, submit the disagreement to the Commission for proposed resolution, in accordance with Applicable Law. Nothing herein shall preclude either Party from challenging the decision or action which such Party deems may adversely affect its interests in any appropriate forum of the Party’s choosing.
(b)
The Parties are informed that this Servicing Order has not been reviewed by the rating agencies which are rating DWR’s bonds. If the rating agencies request changes to this Servicing Order, DWR agrees, and Utility is ordered to negotiate to amend this Servicing Order to accommodate the rating agency requests and will cooperate in obtaining approval of the Commission for such amendments.
(c)
The Parties are informed that this Servicing Order has been modified to implement the California Governor’s Executive Order D-39-01, dated June 9, 2001, concerning load curtailment programs. Such previously negotiated amendments to this Servicing Order are incorporated in Attachment F hereto.
(d)
DWR agrees, and Utility is ordered to bring to the other Party’s attention any errors or discrepancies that are discovered affecting the operation or implementation of this Servicing Order, and DWR agrees, and Utility is ordered to meet and confer upon such event to negotiate any amendments to this Servicing Order that are appropriate to correct such errors or discrepancies. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement on such amendments within sixty (60) days after the discovery of such errors or discrepancies, either party may, in the exercise of its sole discretion, submit the disagreement to the Commission for proposed resolution, in accordance with Applicable Law. Nothing herein shall preclude either Party from challenging the decision or action which such Party deems may adversely affect its interests in any appropriate forum of the Party’s choosing.
Section 11.

DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility is ordered that all data associated with the provision and receipt of services pursuant to this Servicing Order shall be maintained for the greater of (a) the retention time required by Applicable Law or Applicable Tariffs for maintaining such information, or (b) three years.
Section 12.
Indemnity.
It is ordered that Utility and, to the extent allowed under Applicable Law, DWR agrees that it (each, the “Indemnifying Party”) shall defend, indemnify, and hold the other Party, together with its affiliates, and each of their respective officers, agents, employees, assigns and successors in interest (collectively, the “Indemnified Party”), harmless from and against all claims, losses, demands, actions and expenses, damages and liabilities of any nature whatsoever (collectively “Claims”) with respect to the acts or omissions of the Indemnifying Party, or its officers, agents, contractors and employees, with respect to Indemnifying Party’s performance of its obligations under this Servicing Order.

Section 13.
Limitations on Liability.
13.1.
Consequential Damages.
DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered that in no event will either Party be liable to the other Party for any indirect, special, exemplary, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages under any theory. Nothing in this Section 13.1 shall limit either Party’s rights as provided in Section 12 above.
13.2.
Limited Obligations of DWR and Utility.
DWR agrees that it will be liable for all amounts owing to Utility for the Services hereunder, irrespective of (a) any Customer’s failure to make full and timely payments owed for DWR Charges, or (b) Utility’s rights under Sections 4.3 and 7.2 to deduct certain amounts in calculating Remittances owing by Utility to DWR under Attachment B. Utility will not be required at any time to advance or pay any of its own funds in the fulfillment of its responsibilities hereunder with respect to DWR Charges, except to the extent provided otherwise in Attachment B hereto. DWR agrees that any amounts payable by DWR under this Servicing Order shall be payable solely from monies on deposit in the Department of Water Resources Electric Power Fund established pursuant to Section 80200 of the California Water Code (the “Fund”). Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of the State of California are or may be pledged for any payment under this Servicing Order. Revenues and assets of the State Water Resources Development System are not available to make payments under this Servicing Order. If monies on deposit in the Fund are insufficient to pay all amounts payable by DWR under this Servicing Order, or if DWR has reason to believe such funds may become insufficient to pay all amounts payable by DWR under this Servicing Order, DWR agrees to diligently pursue an increase to its revenue requirements as permitted under the Act from the appropriate Governmental Authority as soon as practicable.
Section 14.
Miscellaneous.
14.1.

14.2.
Remedies Cumulative.
DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility, it is ordered that except as otherwise provided in this Servicing Order, all rights of termination, cancellation, or other remedies in this Servicing Order are cumulative.

DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility, it is ordered that DWR may assign or pledge its rights to receive performance (including payment of Remittances) hereunder to a trustee or another party (“Assign(s)”) in order to secure DWR’s obligations under its bonds (as that term is defined in the Act), and any such Assign shall be a third party beneficiary of this Servicing Order; provided, however, that this authority to assign or pledge rights to receive performance hereunder shall in no event extend to any person or entity that sells power or other goods or services to DWR. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, DWR may assign or pledge its rights to receive Remittances hereunder to another party in order to secure DWR’s other obligations under the Act.
(d)
Any person (i) into which Utility may be merged or consolidated, (ii) which may result from any merger or consolidation to which Utility shall be a party or (iii) which may succeed to the properties and assets of Utility substantially as a whole, which person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Utility hereunder, shall be the successor to Utility under this Servicing Order without further act on the part of any of the Parties to this Servicing Order; provided, however, that Utility shall have delivered to DWR and its Assign(s) an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to DWR stating that such consolidation, merger or succession and such agreement of assumption complies with this Section 14.3(d) and that all of Utility’s obligations hereunder have been validly assumed and are binding on any such successor or assign.
(e)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, DWR’s rights and obligations hereunder shall be transferred, without any action or consent of either Party hereto, to any entity created by the State legislature which is required under Applicable Law to assume the rights and obligations of DWR under Division 27 of the California Water Code.
14.4.
Force Majeure.
Neither Party shall be liable for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this Servicing Order (including the obligation to remit money at the times specified herein) from any cause beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to, unusually severe weather, flood, fire, lightning, epidemic, quarantine restriction, war, sabotage, act of a public enemy, earthquake, insurrection, riot, civil disturbance, strike, restraint by court order or Government Authority, or any combination of these causes, which by the exercise of due diligence and foresight such Party could not reasonably have been expected to avoid and which by the exercise of due diligence is unable to overcome.

DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility it is ordered that, any amounts paid or remitted pursuant to this Section 14.4 shall not bear interest which would otherwise accrue under Section 7.
14.5.
Severability.
DWR agrees, and with respect to Utility, it is ordered that in the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Servicing Order shall for any reason be held to be unenforceable in any respect under Applicable Law, such unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Servicing Order, but this Servicing Order shall be construed as if such unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein.
14.6.
Third-Party Beneficiaries.
The provisions of this Servicing Order are exclusively for the benefit of the Parties and any permitted assignee of either Party.
14.7.

Furthermore, no default under any such other agreement between the Parties shall constitute a default hereunder, and each party hereby waives any right to set off any amounts owing to it under any such other agreement against any amounts owing hereunder.
Should a conflict exist between the provisions contained in this Servicing Order (including the attachments hereto) and either Applicable Law or the 20/20 Program, the provisions of Applicable Law or the 20/20 Program, as the case may be, shall govern.

SAN DIEGO GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY
UTILITY BILLING SERVICES
Section 1.
Establishment and Maintenance of Utility Billing Services.
To the extent appropriate under Applicable Commission Orders, under Utility Billing Services with respect to Customers, Utility will include DWR Charges with its Utility Charges on such Customers’ Utility Bills on a consolidated basis. In addition, to the extent appropriate under Applicable Commission Orders, Utility will calculate appropriate DWR Charges under or pursuant to Applicable Law with respect to all Customers and collect DWR Charges by preparing and presenting Utility Bills or by causing to be prepared and presented Non-Utility Bills. In the event that any portions of DWR Charges are to be collected by a Non-Utility, with bills that have been calculated and prepared by Utility, Utility will cause the appropriate DWR Charges to be included in such Non-Utility Bills for collection on behalf of DWR.
Section 2.
Utility Billing Services Procedures.
2.1.
Compliance with Metering Standards. Except to the extent that such Services are provided by a third-party:
(a)
Utility shall comply with all metering standards pursuant to Applicable Tariffs.
(b)
Utility shall read and validate data from meters, and edit and estimate such data, under the terms of Applicable Tariffs.
(c)
Utility shall maintain, store and provide current and historical meter and usage data as required by Applicable Tariffs.
2.2.
Presentation of DWR Charges on Utility Bill.
(a)
DWR Charges shall appear on all Utility Bills or Non-Utility Bills on consolidated basis with Utility Charges in the manner and at the time required by Applicable Law and Applicable Tariffs.
(b)
Notwithstanding subsection (a) above, the Utility may change the manner of bill presentation of DWR Charges upon the agreement of DWR or at the request of DWR and upon agreement by the Utility. Such agreement by DWR or Utility is not to be unreasonably withheld.
(c)
Notwithstanding subsections (a) and (b) above, no change shall be made to Utility Bill formats without the approval of the Commission, if the Commission’s approval is required under Applicable Law and Applicable Tariffs.
(d)
Notwithstanding subsections (a), (b), and (c) above, the Utility Bill shall (i) at all times contain a separate line item for Bond Charge, if applicable, and (ii) (A) so long as DWR is providing Power to Bundled Customers, contain a statement to the effect that the Utility Bills include charges for power provided by DWR for which DWR is collecting “X” cents per kilowatt hour (where X = the applicable Power Charge rate) or, (B) in the case of Customers other than Bundled Customers who are subject to any cost determined to be ongoing DWR power charge component of CRS, then indicate that Utility Bills include Cost Responsibility Surcharge for which DWR is collecting “X” cents per kilowatt hour (where X = the applicable CRS component rate).
2.3.
Billing Costs.
DWR agrees that Utility shall be reimbursed for the reasonable costs of the Billing Services it performs for DWR under this Servicing Order, except for those costs that would have been incurred in providing Billing Services for Customers in the absence of this Servicing Order. DWR agrees that the Commission has jurisdiction to address any dispute concerning the reasonableness of the costs of Billing Services charged to DWR under this Servicing Order.
2.4.
Adjustments to DWR Charges.
Utility will resolve all disputes with Customers subject to Utility Billing Service relating to DWR Charges consistent with Applicable Tariffs and prevailing industry standards. Utility will not waive any late payment fee or modify the terms of payment of any amounts payable by Customers subject to Utility Billing Services unless such action is consistent with the action taken with respect to its own Charges and Applicable Tariffs.
In the event that DWR is entitled by Applicable Law to collect any additional charge as a component of DWR Charges, DWR agrees, and Utility is ordered to negotiate the amendment(s) to this Servicing Order that is (or are) appropriate in order to facilitate the calculation and collection of such a charge, and any such amendment shall be submitted to the Commission for approval. For purposes of this paragraph of Section 2.4, “charge” means any amount that DWR is entitled, under Applicable Law, to assess and collect from a Customer and is intended to be included in the term DWR Charges.
2.5.
Format of Utility Bills.
Utility shall conform to such requirements in respect of the format, structure and text of Utility Bills as Applicable Law and Applicable Tariffs shall from time to time prescribe. Utility shall, subject to the requirements of Sections 1 and 2 of this Service Attachment 1, determine the format and text of Utility Bills in accordance with its reasonable business judgment, and its policies and practices with respect to its own charges.
2.6.
Customer Notices.
(a)
If DWR Charges are revised at any time, Utility shall, to the extent and in the manner and timeframe required by Applicable Law, provide Customers subject to Utility Billing Services with notice announcing such revised DWR Charges. Such notice shall, as appropriate, include publication, inserts to or in the text of the bills or on the reverse side of bills delivered to such Customers, and/or such other means as Utility may from time to time use to communicate with its Customers subject to Utility Billing Services. The format of any such notice shall be determined by the mutual agreement of the Parties, subject to approval by the Commission’s public advisor.
(b)
In addition, at least once each year, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Utility shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Customers subject to Utility Billing Services a notice stating, in effect, that DWR Power and DWR Charges, including such CRS components of DWR Charges, are owned by DWR and not the Utility, in the case where Utility Bills are presented. Such notice shall be included, in a manner and format to be agreed upon by the Parties, subject to approval by the Commission’s public advisor, either as an insert to or in the text of the bills or on the reverse side of bills delivered to such Customers subject to Utility Billing Services or shall be delivered to such Customers by electronic means or such other means as Utility may from time to time use to communicate with such Customers.
(c)
To the extent that any DWR Charges are collected through Non-Utility Bills, Utility shall notify the Non-Utility as to any notices and provide inserts or the text of such notices to be sent to Customers. At least once each year, such notice to be sent by a Non-Utility shall consist of the notice described in Section 2.6(b) above, stating, in effect, that DWR Power and DWR Charges, including such CRS components of DWR Charges, are owned by DWR and not the Non-Utility performing the billing and collection services.
2.7.
Delivery.
Utility shall deliver or cause to be delivered all Utility Bills (i) by United States Mail in such class or classes as are consistent with policies and practices followed by Utility with respect to its own charges or (ii) by any other means, whether electronic or otherwise, that Utility may from time to time use to present its own charges to Customers. In the case of Utility Billing Service, Utility shall pay from its own funds all costs of issuance and delivery of Utility Bills, including but not limited to printing and postage costs as the same may increase or decrease from time to time, except to the extent that the presentation of DWR Charges and any associated bill messages or notices (including, without limitation, bill inserts and published notices) materially increase the costs in which case such increase in costs shall be borne solely by DWR. To the extent practicable, Utility agrees to give DWR seven calendar days prior written notice of any such additional costs. Any such increased costs shall be invoiced to DWR as Additional Charges and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7 of the Servicing Order.
Section 3.
Customer Payments.
Utility shall permit Customers receiving Utility Bills to pay DWR Charges through any of the payment options then offered by Utility to such Customers for payment of Utility Charges appearing on the Utility Bill. Utility shall not permit Customers to direct how partial payments of balances due on Utility Bills will be applied. Utility will credit all payments received from a Customer as set forth in Attachment B hereto and Appendices thereto.
Section 4.
Collection and Nonpayment.
4.1.
Collection of DWR Charges.
Utility will collect or cause to be collected DWR Charges in accordance with its standard practices, and will notify Customers subject to Utility Bills of amounts overdue for DWR Charges in accordance with such practices. Such collection practices shall conform to all requirements of Applicable Law and Applicable Tariffs. Utility will post all payments for DWR Charges as promptly as practicable, including all payments received from any Non-Utility which are components of DWR Charges, but in no case less promptly than Utility posts payments for Utility Charges.
4.2.
Termination of Customer’s Electrical Service.
Utility shall adhere to and carry out disconnection policies in accordance with Applicable Law.
Section 5.
Taxes and Fees Service.
Subject to Section 7.3, Utility will calculate and collect through Utility Bills or Non-Utility Bills and remit to the various authorities the taxes and fees assessed to Customers on DWR Charges.
Section 6.
Late Payments.
In the event that Utility receives late payment interest charges from a Customer subject to Utility Billing Service, such payment shall be allocated to DWR based upon the same proportion that DWR Charges bear to the total Utility Charges on the Utility Bill. Other than the third-party fees or costs set forth in Section C3 of Attachment B hereto, Utility shall not allocate to DWR any other additional late payment service charges or collection fees (including but not limited to disconnection or reconnection services or similar charges related to Customer defaults).

SERVICE ATTACHMENT 2
SAN DIEGO GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY
DWR SURPLUS ENERGY SALES REVENUES REMITTANCE
Consistent with the principles set forth in Exhibits C and D of the Operating Order (as such Exhibits may be amended or supplemented on or after the Effective Date of the 2007 Servicing Order), prior to the MRTU Effective Date Utility shall determine and remit DWR Surplus Energy Sales Revenues, consisting of a Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount and a Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount with respect to each Delivery Month, all as further provided in this Service Attachment 2. Each “Delivery Month” consists of all days prior to the MRTU Effective Date within a calendar month of the Term, including the calendar month of the date immediately preceding the MRTU Effective Date. Any capitalized term used but not defined in this Service Attachment 2 shall have the meanings provided in Exhibit C of the Operating Order or this Servicing Order.
1.
Definitions.
“Preliminary Hourly DWR Surplus Energy Sales Amount” is the product of (i) the Preliminary Hourly DWR Surplus Energy Percentage multiplied by (ii) the hourly Surplus Energy Sales Revenues resulting from Forward Market Sales determined in accordance with the principles in Exhibit C of the Operating Order. The Preliminary Hourly DWR Surplus Energy Percentage is the DWR Surplus Energy Percentage determined in accordance with the principles in Exhibit C of the Operating Order using the most up-to-date scheduled DWR Supply and Utility Supply information available to Utility and a reasonable estimate of ISO Uninstructed Energy.
“Final Hourly DWR Surplus Energy Sales Amount” is DWR’s share of the hourly Surplus Energy Sales Revenues resulting from the Forward Market Sales and the ISO Real-Time Market Sales determined in accordance with the principles in Exhibits C and D of the Operating Order.
2.
Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount. By the 23rd day of the month, or if such date is not a Utility Business Day then the immediately succeeding Utility Business Day, during the Term (each, a “Monthly Settlement Date”), Utility shall calculate and notify DWR in writing as to the “Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount,” which is the aggregation of all Preliminary Hourly DWR Surplus Energy Sales Amounts within the subject Delivery Month. By the Monthly Settlement Date, the calculation of the Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount shall be presented to DWR in the Preliminary Surplus Energy Sales Calculation Summary Report substantially in the form set forth in Section 2B of Attachment C to this Servicing Order.
By the second Utility Business Day following each Monthly Settlement Date, Utility shall remit to DWR the Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount to the extent that Utility received such revenues as of the Monthly Settlement Date. The remittance of the Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount shall be accompanied by an entry in the Surplus Energy Sales Payment Report, substantially in the form set forth in Section 2A of Attachment C to this Servicing Order.
3.
Final Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount. By the Monthly Settlement Date, Utility shall also calculate the “Final Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount,” which is the aggregation of all Final Hourly DWR Surplus Energy Sales Amounts with respect to a Delivery Month that is the same calendar month as the ISO trade month for which the ISO Final Market Invoice is due before the Monthly Settlement Date, as well as any Additional Adjustments contemplated in Section 6 of this Service Attachment 2. The ISO Final Market Invoice due dates are specified in the ISO annual payment calendar. By the Monthly Settlement Date, Utility shall (a) present the calculation of the Final Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount to DWR in the Final Surplus Energy Sales Calculation Summary Report substantially in the form set forth in Section 2C of Attachment C to this Servicing Order and (b) submit to DWR the Real Time Surplus Energy Sales Calculation Supporting Workbook substantially in the form set forth in Section 2D of Attachment C to this Servicing Order. Utility will also provide to DWR the Real Time Surplus Energy Sales Calculation Resource Location ID Master List in accordance to the timeline and substantially in the form set forth in Section 2E of Attachment C to this Servicing Order.
4.
Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount. By each Monthly Settlement Date, Utility will subtract the Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount previously remitted to DWR for the subject Delivery Month from the Final Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount as set forth in Section 3 of this Service Attachment 2 to determine the “Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount” and present such calculation as appropriate entries in the Final Surplus Energy Sales Calculation Summary Report as specified in Section 2C of Attachment C to this Servicing Order. By the second Utility Business Day following the Monthly Settlement Date of each month, Utility shall remit such Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount to DWR if the amount is positive, to the extent that Utility received such revenues as of the Monthly Settlement Date. If the Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount is negative, this negative True-up Amount may be used to offset the prospective Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount and, if the negative True-up Amount exceeds the prospective Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount, the Utility and DWR shall confer concerning the offset of the excess amount. Any remittances or request for DWR payment to be prepared under this Section 4 shall be accompanied by an appropriate entry in the Surplus Energy Sales Payment Report as specified in Section 2A of Attachment C to this Servicing Order.
5.
Adjustments and True-ups. If for any period of three consecutive months, the absolute value of the difference between the three-month aggregate Preliminary Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount and the three-month aggregate Final Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount resulting from Forward Market Sales is greater than 10% for such period, the Parties shall negotiate changes to the methodology provided in this Service Attachment 2 so as to reasonably reduce the Forward Market Sales portion of the Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount for future months. Either Party may, in addition to any other remedies available to the Party, submit the matter to the Commission or other appropriate forum for resolution in the event that the Parties cannot mutually agree to a revised methodology.
6.
Additional Adjustments. The Final Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount of a month may also reflect any Additional Adjustments to the Surplus Energy Sales Revenue of a month for which a prior Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount has been remitted. Additional Adjustments shall consist of any Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount that Utility received after a prior Delivery Month Surplus Energy Sales True-up Amount remittance and those adjustments mutually agreed to by the Parties, adjustments as a result of settled disputes between the Utility and the third-party purchaser of surplus Power or adjustments expressly permitted under the Contract Allocation Order or by Applicable Law or the Operating Order, as may be amended from time to time.
Each Additional Adjustment shall be accompanied by a detailed written report in a form to be mutually acceptable to the receiving Party. As reasonably requested by DWR, Utility shall provide supporting documentation of any Additional Adjustments.
7.
DWR Right to Verify Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount. DWR agrees that it shall have the right but not the obligation following the receipt of the Final Surplus Energy Sales Calculation Summary Report for each Delivery Month to conduct such verification procedures as determined reasonably necessary. In the event that DWR does not agree with the Final Monthly Surplus Energy Sales Remittance Amount following its verification, and to the extent that informal procedures do not resolve the differences identified by DWR, DWR agrees that it will notify Utility in writing of a dispute with respect to such remitted amount. If the Parties are unable to resolve any disputes relating to such DWR Surplus Sales Energy Revenues, either Party may, upon giving five Business Days’ notice to the other Party pursue such appropriate remedies including the submission of the dispute to the Commission or other appropriate forum for proposed resolution.

ATTACHMENT B
SAN DIEGO GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY
REMITTANCES OF DWR CHARGES
Consistent with the remittance methodology set forth in this Attachment B, SDG&E shall remit DWR Charges, consisting of all applicable Fund Types with respect to each applicable Customer Type, on each Utility Business Day of the Term.
A.
Billing and Remittance of DWR Charges
In providing Utility Billing Services set forth in Service Attachment 1, the amount included in Utility Bills for the applicable Fund Type of the Customer Type of the DWR Charge shall be calculated by SDG&E as provided in the corresponding Appendix to this Attachment B. By the 7th Utility Business Day after the end of a billing month during the Term, SDG&E will provide to DWR a Monthly Billing Report substantially in the form set forth in Section 1C of Attachment C.
Customer payments for DWR Charges will be collected by SDG&E on behalf of DWR, all as further provided in this Servicing Order. SDG&E shall remit payments for DWR Charges on a daily basis following the process described in Section B of this Attachment B.
Customer payments for Utility Bills shall be allocated and applied using SDG&E’s payment posting priority process described below in Section G of this Attachment B. All partial payments to SDG&E for Utility Bills will be prorated based on the said payment posting priority. During SDG&E’s nightly processing during any Utility Business Day, payments for DWR Charges that SDG&E collects on behalf of DWR will be identified and aggregated separately for each Fund Type on all applicable Customer Types, and be credited to DWR’s account and be transmitted on the next Utility Business Day, separately for each Fund Type on all Customer Types by electronic funds transfer. The Parties’ first preference for electronic funds transfer will be by ACH and their secondary preference will be by wire transfer. SDG&E process timing will dictate which electronic funds transfer will be used.
With respect to each Daily Remittance of DWR Charges, SDG&E shall clearly identify the appropriate Fund Type. In determining the Daily Remittance amount of a Fund Type from an applicable Customer Type, SDG&E may net the amount due to DWR against the amount owed to SDG&E only if the adjustment amount belongs to the same Fund Type from the same Customer Type and SDG&E has obtained prior consent from DWR, which consent shall be given on a case by case basis.
B.
Proposed Process and Timeline for DWR Automated Daily Remittance
1.
Utility Business Day 0 – SDG&E receives Customer payment and payments are processed. SDG&E’s billing system identifies payments and applies DWR portion based on pre-established payment posting criteria, representing a constructive account for DWR. The Parties acknowledge that payments received from Customers consist of payments to SDG&E and payments to DWR and that until DWR’s portion is remitted to DWR, such funds will be held together by SDG&E. Until remitted to DWR, SDG&E shall hold DWR’s portion of payments in trust for the benefit of DWR (whether or not held together with other monies), consistent with Applicable Law.
2.
Utility Business Day 1 - Payments are sent to DWR by 12:00 noon based on remittance schedule. DWR acknowledges delays of up to 3 Utility Business Days may occur due to errors, system failures and other factors. DWR agrees that such delays shall not constitute a default pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Servicing Order; provided, however, that SDG&E shall undertake commercially reasonable efforts to rectify any cause for such delay. SDG&E shall promptly notify DWR when any such delay occurs and the expected date for returning to the normal schedule. In cases where ACH electronic payment is remitted, SDG&E will remit to its bank on Utility Business Day 1. DWR agrees that this payment meets SDG&E’s remittance schedule requirements pursuant to this Attachment B.
3.
Adjustments for misapplied payments, returned checks, payment transfers, and miscellaneous adjustments will be reflected in the Remittance with respect to each Fund Type of applicable Customer Type, as those adjustments are made in SDG&E’s billing system.
4.
Daily Remittances shall be accompanied by a single Daily Remittance Report separately identifying the remitted amounts of DWR Charges of each Fund Type of each Customer Type, substantially in the form set forth in Section 1A of Attachment C. Each Daily Remittance Report shall be accompanied by the Remittance Netting Report, substantially in the form set forth in Section 1B of Attachment C.
C.
Collection of DWR Charges
1.
As permitted by Applicable Law, SDG&E will disconnect Customers’ electric service for unpaid DWR Charges. Disconnection for DWR Charges will be performed in the same manner as SDG&E disconnects for its own charges and consistent with Applicable Tariffs.
2.
Responsibility for collection of any DWR Charges that remain unpaid 180 calendar days after the final statement was issued shall become the sole responsibility of DWR. However, Customer payments received by SDG&E after such reversion to DWR will continue to be applied on a pro-rata basis to DWR.
3.
SDG&E may use collection agency services to recover outstanding balances on Customers’ closed accounts. When DWR receives benefit of such services through recovery of payments to Customer accounts, Parties agree that DWR’s Remittances will be adjusted to account for the pro-rata share of collection agency fees associated with DWR’s portion of recovered charges.
By the 7th Utility Business Day after the end of a billing month during the Term, SDG&E will provide to DWR a Monthly DWR Charge-Off and Recovery Report, substantially in the form set forth in Section 1E of Attachment C.
D.
Survival of Payment Obligations
SDG&E has the right but not the obligation to pursue collection of DWR Charges after 180 calendar days following the termination of this Servicing Order pursuant to Section 5. Provided, however, SDG&E may continue collection services for a period of 3 years after the Customer’s account was closed if prior to the termination of this Servicing Order the Parties reach a mutually satisfactory arrangement either to (i) reimburse SDG&E for its estimated reasonable costs to continue with collection and allocation activities for such period or (ii) estimate the amount of collections that are reasonably likely to be recovered, which amount (including discounts for cash flow impacts) SDG&E shall promptly remit to DWR in full satisfaction of its collection services.
E.
Deposits Securing DWR Charges
In accordance with Applicable Tariffs, SDG&E shall collect security deposits from Customers and return those security deposits to Customers. Such security deposits will be applied pro rata to DWR Charges in the event a Customer’s billing account with SDG&E is closed.
F.
Other Operating Revenue Collected by SDG&E
DWR shall have no rights in or entitlements to charges associated with SDG&E’s collection or payment activities, including but not limited to, returned check charge, reconnection of service charge, field assignment charge, and other service charges related to billing, payment, or collections. However, pursuant to Section 6 of Service Attachment 1, late payment interest charges will be applied pro-rata to DWR Charges. By the 7th Utility Business Day of each billing month during the Term, SDG&E will provide to DWR a Monthly Late Payment Charge Report presenting the calculation of pro-rata sharing of late payments for the preceding month substantially in the form set forth in Section 1D of Attachment C.
G.
Payment Posting Priority for Utility Billing
l.
Priority
Payment posting rules for Utility Bills will assign equal priority to SDG&E gas and electric energy and service charges and DWR Charges to the extent that such charges are presented on a Utility Bill. To the extent a Customer’s security deposit request has been included on the customer’s monthly billing statement, the Customer’s payment will be first applied to the outstanding deposit amount. Thereafter, payments will be prorated among disconnectible SDG&E gas and electric energy and service charges and DWR Charges based on the amount owing in each statement, beginning with the oldest statement. SDG&E’s payment posting priority enables SDG&E to make timely payments to SDG&E, DWR, and other agencies/Cities where SDG&E is required to collect surcharges, fees and taxes. Any other outstanding disconnectible and non-disconnectible charges will be paid with any remaining credit balance.
2.
Payment Posting Rules for Utility Billing
a.
Payments will be applied to outstanding charges from the oldest statement first.
b.
The amount of payment applied to SDG&E’s gas and electric energy/service charges on a Utility Bill will be applied on a pro-rata basis between SDG&E gas and electric energy/service charges in the following illustrative manner:
Sample: | Electric | Gas | Total |
Bill Date 1/10/06 | $100.00 | $100.00 | $200.00 |
% of Total | 50% | 50% | 100% |
Payment 1/25/06 | $50.00 | $50.00 | $100.00 |
% of Total | 50% | 50% | 100% |
3.
To the extent that SDG&E’s Utility Bill also includes applicable DWR Charges, the amount of payment/credit applied for electric energy/services on such Utility Bill will be prorated among all unpaid disconnectible SDG&E electric energy/service charges and DWR Charges based on the amount owing in each category in the following illustrative manner:
Sample: | SDG&E | Sum of All DWR Charges | FF/Taxes | Total |
Bill Date 1/10/06 | $35.00 | $60.00 | $5.00 | $100.00 |
% of Total Billed | 35% | 60% | 5% | 100% |
Payment 1/25/06 | $17.50 | $30.00 | $2.50 | $50.00 |
% of Total Payment | 35% | 60% | 5% | 100% |
4.
The payment/credit for the sum of all DWR Charges determined in Step 3 above shall be further prorated between unpaid DWR Power Charge and Bond Charge of a Customer Types in the following illustrative manner:
Sample: | Power Charge | Bond Charge | Total |
Bill Date 1/10/06 | $54.00 | $6.00 | $60.00 |
% of Total Billed DWR Charges | 90% | 10% | 100% |
Total Payment Credited to DWR 1/25/06 | $27.00 | $3.00 | $30.00 |
% of Total Payment Credit to DWR 1/25/06 | 90% | 10% | 100% |
H.
Reporting of DWR Charges Billing, Collection and Remittance
Prior to the Effective Date of the 2007 Servicing Order, SDG&E sent e-mail notices to DWR at least monthly that provided the following billing data or information of DWR Charges as such charges became effective.
·
Daily aggregate of billed individual Customer consumptions for each Customer Type relating to DWR Charges;
·
Daily aggregate of billed individual Customer consumptions subject to each Fund Type on each applicable Customer Type, excluding Customer consumptions relating to Power Charge and Bond Charge on Bundled Customers;
·
DWR’s share of daily aggregate of billed individual Bundled Customer consumptions for determining Power Charge on Bundled Customers; and
·
Daily aggregate of billed dollar amounts for each Fund Type on each applicable Customer Type.
In addition, the billed individual Customer consumption and dollar amount for a Fund Type on a Customer Type in the billing data or information listed above would have been and will continue to be determined consistent with the methodology provided in the appropriate Appendix to this Attachment B.
Further, SDG&E sent e-mail notices to DWR each Utility Business Day prior to the Effective Date of the 2007 Servicing Order that provided the following remittance information of DWR Charges as such charges became effective.
·
Remittance processing date;
·
Daily Remittance amounts for each Fund Type on each applicable Customer Type; and
·
Previous month recovery of charged off amounts.
Also prior to the Effective Date of the 2007 Servicing Order, SDG&E sent e-mail notices to DWR each month that provided a Monthly Late Payment Charge Report presenting the calculation of pro-rata sharing of late payment charge collection and a Monthly DWR Charge and Recovery Report presenting information concerning the charge-off and recovery of DWR Charges.
On and after the Effective Date of the 2007 Servicing Order, SDG&E provided the reports contemplated in this Attachment B, substantially in the forms set forth in Attachment C of the 2007 Servicing Order or as may from time to time be modified as mutually agreed to by the Parties or ordered by the Commission.
On and after the MRTU Effective Date, SDG&E provides the reports contemplated in this Attachment B, substantially in the forms set forth in Attachment C of this 2010 Servicing Order.
To the extent that a different collection rate is to be applied to a sub-group within a Customer Type identified in the Servicing Order pursuant to a future Applicable Commission Order, unless SDG&E and DWR mutually agree to a different reporting format, SDG&E will provide the same information identified in the reporting form related to the original Customer Type as to any sub-group identified within that Customer Type.
Unless expressly provided otherwise, on and after the Effective Date of the 2007 Servicing Order, SDG&E was directed to transmit to DWR all the reports contemplated in Attachment B via secure electronic means or email (password protected or otherwise, as more specifically provided in Attachment C), provided in Microsoft Excel® workbook file format or, to the extent necessary from time to time in comma separated value or fixed width text files, all as further provided in Attachment C.
I.
Historical Remittance Methodologies
Historical remittance methodologies for specific Fund Types on specific Customer Types for specific historical time periods may differ from the remittance methodologies described in this Attachment B. Such historical remittance methodologies are included in the appropriate Appendices to this Attachment B.
J.
Utility Filings Impacting DWR Charges
To the extent that SDG&E intends to revise(i) any effective remittance rate for any DWR Charge or (ii) any SDG&E collected rates which would modify effective remittance rate for any CRS component, in either case, applicable toa Customer Type being collected under the 2007 Servicing Orderthrough a filing prepared and submitted by SDG&E to the Commission (hereinafter “DWR Charge Revision”), SDG&E will notifyDWR of any such future Commission filings as provided in this Paragraph. Unless the Commission fails to provide SDG&E with at least two (2) Utility Business Days’ notice of a requirement to file a DWR Charge Revision, no less than two (2) Utility Business Days prior toSDG&E’s submission of the filing to the Commission, SDG&E will notify the DWR Contact Persons listed in Section C of Attachment A (“DWR Contact Persons”) or other DWR representative as mutually agreed to by the Parties, that SDG&E intends to submit a filing to the Commission that changes the effective DWR Charge remittance rate; provided, however, that in the event that SDG&E has less than two (2) Utility Business Days’ notice of a requirement to file, SDG&E will notify DWR as soon as is practicable. In the event that the Commission has directed SDG&E and DWR to work collaboratively on the DWR Charge Revision, SDG&E will provide the relevant supporting work papers for the DWR Charge Revision to DWR no later than the time SDG&E provides notice as specified in this paragraph. With respect to all other DWR Charge Revisions filed by SDG&E, after filing of the DWR Charge Revision with the Commission, SDG&E will provide the relevant supporting work papers for a DWR Charge Revision if such papers are requested by DWR. Upon submission of the filing to the Commission, SDG&E will forward a copy of the final SDG&E filing to the DWR Contact Persons within two (2) Utility Business Daysof the filing date. When the Commission notifies SDG&E of its action concerning the filing, SDG&E will provide a copy of the Commission’s letter, resolution, or other document concerning the filing to the DWR Contact Persons within five (5 ) Utility Business Days of receipt thereof. SDG&E further agrees to maintain a summary of itsCommission filings concerning DWR Charges and other matters covered by the 2007 Servicing Order, and SDG&E will forward an updated copy of such summaryto the DWR Contact Persons within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter. SDG&E’s non-compliance with its obligations under this Paragraph J will not constitute a material breach under the 2007 Servicing Order and shall not be considered an Event of Default under the 2007 Servicing Order.
K.
Collection of DWR Charges through Non-Utility Bills
In the event that any component of DWR Charges are calculated by SDG&E but billed and collected through Non-Utility Bills, SDG&E will agree to provide daily and monthly reports with respect to collections remitted through Non-Utility Bills in the same format as the Fund Type of the Customer Type provided in Attachment C of the 2007 Servicing Order. To the extent that any of the requested data included in the reports are not reasonably available to SDG&E, upon notification by SDG&E, DWR agrees to modify the affected reports to be able to reasonably address the concerns of the Parties.

APPENDIX A-1
SAN DIEGO GAS & ELECTRIC COMPANY
BILL DETERMINATION - BUNDLED CUSTOMER BOND CHARGE
This Appendix A-1 to Attachment B of the Servicing Order sets forth specific methodology to be applied in determining the billed dollar amount of Bond Charge on a Bundled Customer.
The dollar amount of Bond Charge billed or re-billed to a Bundled Customer is the product of (i) the electric consumption subject to Bond Charge billed or re-billed to the Bundled Customer and (ii) the Bundled Customer Bond Charge rate applicable to the period of such electric consumption. All electric consumption of a Bundled Customer is subject to Bond Charge unless exempt by Applicable Commission Orders.
In cases in which the Bundled Customer Bond Charge rate changes during the period of the electric consumption subject to Bond Charge billed or re-billed to a Bundled Customer, SDG&E shall apply each of the differing Bundled Customer Bond Charge rates over such period to a portion of such consumption in proportion to the number of calendar days within the period that each rate was effective.

The dollar amount of Power Charge billed or re-billed to a Bundled Customer shall be the product of (i) the electric consumption billed or re-billed to the Bundled Customer (ii) the Bundled Customer Power Charge rate in dollar per kilowatt-hour applicable to the period of the consumption and (iii) the corresponding “Individual Customer Billing Cycle Average DWR Percentage” (described below).
In cases in which the Bundled Customer Power Charge rate changes during the period of the electric consumption subject to Power Charge billed or re-billed to a Bundled Customer, SDG&E shall apply each of the differing Bundled Customer Power Charge rates over such period to a portion of such consumption in proportion to the number of calendar days within the period that each rate was effective.
SDG&E shall determine the “Individual Customer Billing Cycle Average DWR Percentage” over the period of electric consumption subject to Power Charge billed or re-billed to a Bundled Customer as the average of all hourly “Rate Group Average DWR Energy Percentages” over such period weighted by the statistical or dynamic load profile of the rate group of the Bundled Customer over the same period. SDG&E shall calculate each hourly “Rate Group Average DWR Energy Percentage” of a rate group as the rate grouppro rata share of the Hourly Percentage Factor described in Part I and Part II of this Appendix A-2, in proportion to the rate group’s statistical or dynamic load profile in the same hour as further detailed in SDG&E’s Tariff.
SDG&E shall determine the “Hourly Percentage Factor” in accordance with the principles set forth in Attachment H of the 2003 Servicing Order, which included Part I that provides the detailed process of the More Precise Remittance Methodology applicable for Power Charges from Bundled Customers before the Operating Order Effective Date and Part II that provides the detailed process of the Post-Transition Remittance Methodology applicable for Power Charges on Bundled Customers on and after the Operating Order Effective Date. With formatting changes, Attachment H of the 2003 Servicing Order is provided below in Part I and Part II of Part A of this Appendix A-2.
Part I:
More Precise Remittance Methodology
The methodology in this Part I shall be applied for remittance of Power Charges from Bundled Customers before the Operating Order Effective Date.
a).
SDG&E Remittance Percentage Calculation and True-up
In accordance with SDG&E’s Schedule EECC, as it may be modified or superseded by the Commission from time to time, SDG&E calculates each hour the percentage of Bundled Customers electricity use that is supplied by DWR (the “Hourly Percentage Factor”). This percentage is calculated using Final Hour-Ahead Schedules that reflect estimated Customer electricity use. “Estimated Customer Use” shall be defined as the forecasted Customer usage used to establish the Final Hour-Ahead Schedule adjusted using other data that may become available within one day of the Trade Day, as appropriate, to more accurately reflect actual Bundled Customer usage. As final settlement statements reflecting actual meter data and electricity deliveries are received from the ISO, SDG&E will calculate the actual Hourly Percentage Factors. For each hour, the estimated Hourly Percentage Factor will be subtracted from the actual Hourly Percentage Factor to determine the Hourly Percentage Factor difference. At the end of each month, a weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be calculated using all trade dates for which SDG&E has received from the ISO final settlement statements during such month. This weighted average difference will then be adjusted, if necessary, by commodity revenue dollars for the different periods to obtain an adjustment percentage that will be applied as an hourly adjustment in the next month’s calculations of Hourly Percentage Factors.
b).
Detailed Process
l.
Hourly Percentage Factor Calculation - This calculation is performed onT+1 (the day after the energy is used).
For each dayT (trade date) SDG&E will retrieve from ISO published CERS hour-ahead final schedule the amount of DWR energy that is scheduled from SDG&E.
For each dayT SDG&E will develop estimates of Bundled Customer usage and imbalance energy for each hour.
These two components, along with output from the True-up Process, will be used to calculate the Hourly Percentage Factor. SDG&E will calculate the Hourly Percentage Factor for each hour of a trade dayT by: (i) dividing the CERS’ Final Hour Ahead Schedule plus estimated imbalance energy schedule for such hour by the SDG&E Estimated Customer Usage for such hour; and (ii) adding the true-up adjustment percentage applicable for the current month, calculated in accordance with Section B.2, below.
2.
True-up Process. The ISO publishes final settlement statements onT + 51 Utility Business Days. The actual meter data on the final settlement statements will be used to calculate the actual Hourly Percentage Factor. The CERS Hour Ahead Final Schedule quantity will be divided by the actual meter data to obtain the actual Hourly Percentage Factor, except that during the term of the Restated Letter Agreement, the sum of the CERS Hour Ahead Final Schedule quantity and the imbalance energy for each corresponding hour will be divided by the actual meter data to obtain the actual Hourly Percentage Factor.
For each hour, the estimated Hourly Percentage Factor will be subtracted from the actual Hourly Percentage Factor to determine the Hourly Percentage Factor difference.
At the end of each month, a weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be calculated using all trade dates for which final settlement statements were received during that current month. The weight for the average will be the total Customer load, based on actual meter data for each hour. For all trade dates, for which final settlement statements were received during the current month, the actual meter data will be obtained. For each hour, the Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be multiplied by the actual meter data for that hour and then divided by the sum of actual meter data for all hours in the month. All the individual hour weighted results for that month will then be summed to obtain the weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference.
The Hourly Percentage Factor will then be adjusted by the commodity revenue dollars for the two time periods: (i) trade dates for which final settlement statements were received, and (ii) next calendar month). Average commodity revenue dollars represent the combined billed electric commodity revenues for both SDG&E and DWR (in dollars). The weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be multiplied by commodity revenue dollars for the trade dates for which final settlement statements were received divided by next forecasted average commodity revenue dollars for the next calendar month.
This adjusted percentage will then be applied as the true-up adjustment percentage in the next month’s Hourly Percentage Factor calculations. The true-up adjustment percentage will be added to the calculation of the Hourly Percentage Factor in accordance with Item 1 of this Part I.
Part II:
Post-Transition Remittance Methodology
The methodology in this Part II shall be applied for remittance of Power Charge on Bundled Customers on and after the Operating Order Effective Date.
a).
SDG&E Remittance Percentage Calculation and True-up
In accordance with SDG&E’s Schedule EECC, as it may be modified or superseded by the CPUC from time to time, SDG&E calculates each hour the percentage of Bundled Customers electricity use that is supplied by DWR (the “Hourly Percentage Factor”).
1.
Prior to the MRTU Effective Date. This percentage is calculated using Final Hour-Ahead Schedules and other information reasonably available to SDG&E within one day of the Trade Day that reflect estimated dispatched quantities of SDG&E integrated portfolio resources including the Allocated Contracts as well as estimated Bundled Customer electricity use. “Estimated Customer Use” shall be defined as the forecasted Customer usage used to establish the Final Hour-Ahead Schedule adjusted using other data that may become available within one day of the Trade Day, as appropriate, to more accurately reflect actual Customer usage. As final settlement statements reflecting actual meter data and electricity deliveries are received from the ISO, SDG&E will calculate the actual Hourly Percentage Factor. For each hour, the estimated Hourly Percentage Factor will be subtracted from the actual Hourly Percentage Factor to determine the Hourly Percentage Factor difference. At the end of each month, a weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be calculated using all trade dates for which SDG&E has received from the ISO final settlement statements during such month. This weighted average difference will then be adjusted, if necessary, by commodity revenue dollars for the different periods to obtain an adjustment percentage that will be applied as an hourly adjustment in the next month’s calculations of Hourly Percentage Factor.
2.
On and after the MRTU Effective Date. The term “Hourly Percentage Factor” is replaced by the term “DWR Percentage Calculation” which is the percentage of DWR Contract power relative to the total Estimated Bundled Customer Load, as further described in Section A of Part II of Exhibit C of the 2010 Operating Order. The amount applied to determine DWR Percentage Calculation for DWR Remittance Basis and Estimated Bundled Customer Load shall be as shown in DWR Remittance Basis Calculation Report, substantially in the form set forth in Section 3B of Attachment C.
More specifically as to SDG&E, the Estimated Bundled Customer Load is calculated hourly, using the integration of actual area MW load for one hour obtained from SDG&E’s Energy Management System (“EMS”) and subtracting out hourly transmission losses, which include hourly Palo Verde flow losses and forecasted hourly Non-Bundled Customer Load, consisting of Direct Access Customers, Customer Generation Departing Load Customers, Municipal Departing Load Customers and Community Choice Aggregation Customers, as such Customer Types are specifically defined in the Servicing Order and may exist from time to time with respect to SDG&E.
b).
Detailed Process - Prior to the MRTU Effective Date. The following provisions shall apply prior to the MRTU Effective Date:
1. Hourly Percentage Factor Calculation. This calculation is performed onT + 1 (the day after the energy is used).
For each dayT (trade date) SDG&E will retrieve from ISO published hour-ahead final schedules of SDG&E integrated portfolio resources including the Allocated Contracts.
For each dayT, SDG&E will develop estimates of Bundled Customer usage.
These two components, along with output from the True-up Process, will be used to calculate the Hourly Percentage Factor. SDG&E will calculate the Hourly Percentage Factor for each hour of a trade dayT in accordance with the principles provided in Exhibit C of the Operating Order; and (ii) adding the true-up adjustment percentage applicable for the current month, calculated in accordance with Item.2 below.
2. True-up Process. The ISO publishes final settlement statements onT + 51 Utility Business Days. The actual meter data on the final settlement statements will be used to calculate the actual Hourly Percentage Factor in accordance with the principles provided in Exhibit C of the Operating Order.
For each hour the estimated Hourly Percentage Factor will be subtracted from the actual Hourly Percentage Factor to determine the Hourly Percentage Factor difference.
At the end of each month, a weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be calculated using all trade dates for which final settlement statements were received during that current month. The weight for the average will be the total Bundled Customer load, based on actual meter data for each hour. For all trade dates, for which final settlement statements were received during the current month, the actual meter data will be obtained. For each hour, the Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be multiplied by the actual meter data for that hour and then divided by the sum of actual meter data for all hours in the month. All the individual hour weighted results for that month will then be summed to obtain the weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference.
The Hourly Percentage Factor will then be adjusted by the commodity revenue dollars for the two time periods: (i) trade dates for which final settlement statements were received, and (ii) next calendar month. Average commodity revenue dollars represent the combined billed electric commodity revenues for both SDG&E and DWR (in dollars). The weighted average Hourly Percentage Factor difference will be multiplied by commodity revenue dollars for the trade dates for which final settlement statements were received divided by next forecasted average commodity revenue dollars for the next calendar month.
This adjusted percentage will then be applied as the true-up adjustment percentage in the next month’s Hourly Percentage Factor calculations. The true-up adjustment percentage will be added to the calculation of the Hourly Percentage Factor in accordance with Sub-section (b)(l) above.
c).
Detailed Process - On and after the MRTU Effective Date. The following provisions shall apply on and after the MRTU Effective Date:
On and after the MRTU Effective Date, there will not be true-ups of Estimated Bundled Customer Load component that is applied to determine DWR Percentage Calculation. Actual DWR Remittance Basis will be adjusted, corrected or updated as set forth in the SDG&E IST True-Up Report or in the DWR Remittance Basis True-up Report, described in Section 3(B) or 3(D) of Attachment C of this Servicing Order.
In addition, SDG&E will provide DWR with a monthly report indicating the daily Estimated Bundled Customer Load, the ISO metered load, and a monthly simple average of the daily variance amounts.
B.
Additional Applicable Methodologies
1.
Transition Period. The Parties recognize that prior to October 1, 2001, SDG&E has been remitting Power Charge for Bundled Customers to DWR based upon the interim remittance methodologies described in Decision 01-03-081, adopted by the Commission on March 27, 2001, and Decision 01-05-064, adopted by the Commission on May 15, 2001 (collectively the "Interim Remittance Methodologies"). SDG&E shall reconcile the amounts remitted pursuant to the Interim Remittance Methodologies at the time and in the manner set forth in Attachment B to the 2003 Servicing Order.
2.
Transition to Billing Effective Date and Reconciliation. The Parties recognize that prior to the date on which SDG&E mailed a consolidated Utility Bill which reflected a separate line item or denotation of DWR Charges (the “Billing Effective Date”), SDG&E has remitted DWR Charges based upon the remittance methodology set forth in the Restated Letter Agreement, dated June 18, 2001 and referenced in Attachment E to this Servicing Order (the “Restated Letter Agreement”). Commencing on the Business Day following the Billing Effective Date, SDG&E commenced daily remittances based upon the procedures set forth herein and in Section 4.2 of the Servicing Agreement approved by the Commission pursuant to Decision 01-09-013, as amended from time to time (“More Precise Billing Methodology”).
3.
Post-Transition Remittance Methodology.

This transition will include the continuation of the More Precise Remittance Methodology true-up after the Operating Order Effective Date as long as necessary or appropriate (the “Transition Period”) to account for DWR Power provided to Bundled Customers prior to the Operating Order Effective Date. True-Up remittances during the Transition Period using the More Precise Remittance Methodology shall be made in addition to Remittances made in accordance with the Post Transition Remittance Methodology set forth in Attachment H of the 2003 Servicing Order.
4.
2003 One Time Bill Credit. Pursuant to Commission Decision 03-09-018 and consistent with SDG&E Advice Letter 1523-E, SDG&E implemented a one-time bill credit in the aggregate amount of $135,366,371 to refund DWR Power Charge to Bundled Customers who pay DWR Bond Charge in SDG&E’s service territory. With the agreement of DWR and to fund this one-time bill credit, SDG&E withheld then on-going daily DWR Power Charge remittances SDG&E collected from Bundled Customers and Direct Access Customers commencing on September 18, 2003 and ending on November 18, 2003, inclusive, during which period SDG&E remitted no Power Charge from Bundled Customers and Direct Access Customers to DWR. The one-time bill credit procedures are further provided in that certain letter agreement, dated August 30, 2004, between DWR and SDG&E. Pursuant to the letter agreement, SDG&E credited DWR the undistributed One Time Bill Credit in the amount of $1,731,082.27 against amount DWR owed to SDG&E for DWR Charges related billing and collection system changes.

1.
The Restated Letter Agreement between San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) and the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), dated June 18, 2001, as it may be amended or modified from time to time (the “Restated Letter Agreement”). The Restated Letter Agreement provides for continued DWR procurement for SDG&E customers of SDG&E’s “full net short” (consisting of substantially all of the power and ancillary services not provided by SDG&E’s retained generation) through December 31, 2002. The reference to the Restated Letter Agreement in this Attachment E provides no independent basis for enforcement of the Restated Letter Agreement.
2.
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), dated June 18, 2001, San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) and its parent Company, Sempra Energy. The MOU contemplates the implementation of a series transactions and regulatory settlements and actions to resolve many of the issues affecting SDG&E and its customers arising out of the California energy crisis. The MOU contemplates, among other matters, the sale of SDG&E’s transmission system to DWR or another state agency. The MOU also contemplates that DWR’s net-short procurement obligations contained in the Restated Letter Agreement are subject to earlier termination upon the satisfaction of regulatory and other conditions intended to assure SDG&E’s timely recovery of costs incurred in resuming power procurement for its customers. The reference to the MOU in this Attachment E provides no independent basis for enforcement of the MOU.
3.
Letter Agreement between the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) and San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E). This Letter Agreement provides for the payment of SDG&E’s costs to (i) implement and maintain a billing system to remit customer payments to DWR, (ii) implement the 20/20 program, and (iii) implement load curtailment programs under Assembly Bill (AB) IX, related Executive Orders, and California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) orders and decisions.
4.
Notwithstanding (i) the terms, execution or operation of the Servicing Order, (ii) the approval of, any modification to, or any other action taken with respect to or having an effect on the Servicing Order by the Commission or any other Governmental Authority, or (iii) any other action taken by a Governmental Authority, Utility hereby reserves all rights (if any) in any forum to contest, oppose, appeal, comment on, or otherwise seek to revisit, alter, modify or set aside any present or future decisions, orders, opinions, rulings, or actions or omissions to act by the Commission or any other Governmental Authority, whether in draft, interim or final form, arising out of, relating to, or connected with (x) the calculation of DWR Charges or DWR Revenues and the allocation of costs and amounts of electric capacity and output among the customers of electrical corporations, (y) the interpretation and/or legality of Applicable Law or Applicable Orders, or (z) remittance of such calculated amounts by Utility to DWR or its Assign(s) under Applicable Law or Applicable Commission Orders in a manner inconsistent with this Servicing Order or Utility’s ability to perform its utility functions.

CALCULATION METHODOLOGY FOR REDUCED REMITTANCES
PURSUANT TO 20/20 PROGRAM
A.
Reimbursement of 20/20 Rebate Costs
1.
DWR agrees that Utility shall recover the amount of customer credits under the 20/20 Program as follows:
a.
Under the remittance provision of Attachment B of this Servicing Order, Utility shall reduce any remittances to DWR under the Act or the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Resolution E-3770 by the daily amount equal to the total of such customer credits on the following Business Day after the presentation of credits on customer bill.
b.
If the amount that Utility is entitled to offset on any day exceeds the funds otherwise due to DWR, the balance will be carried over to the next day. If it appears that the amount Utility is entitled to offset will exceed the funds due to DWR for more than 3 consecutive days, then Utility will invoice DWR with an estimate of the amount due to Utility. DWR will pay such invoice within 1 Business Day of receipt. For purposes of this Attachment F, the credits or payments shall refer to the 20 percent reduction applied to customers’ total net electric charges (including applicable rate surcharges), and shall include credits or payments made to resolve Customer disputes or reflect corrected bills following the end of the program.
B.
Customer credits under the 20/20 Program will be applied to Customer accounts as follows:
Customer credits under the 20/20/ Program will be applied to customer accounts at time of billing and allocated to DWR according to the same payment posting priority set forth in Attachment B, Section G. In those instances in which the credit exceeds the outstanding charges, the excess credit will remain on the account and be applied to future charges in the same manner.
C.
Reimbursement of 20/20 Program Implementation Costs
DWR agrees to pay to Utility an implementation fee and recurring fees in order to cover Utility’s reasonable development and on-going costs for the procedures, systems and mechanisms that are necessary to implement and support the 20/20 Program. Utility shall invoice DWR for payment of the implementation fee and recurring fees with reasonable supporting documentation in accordance with Section 7.2 of the Servicing Order. Final invoice to be submitted to DWR no later than February 28, 2003.
D.
Estimated Costs:
l.
The intent is to reimburse the actual, incremental costs incurred by SDG&E. SDG&E will exercise reasonable commercial efforts in managing their operations to minimize costs and keep within the budgeted costs shown in the table below.
2.
SDG&E shall invoice DWR after a 20/20 Program implementation activity described below has been completed and will undertake reasonable commercial efforts to track and keep costs within the estimated costs shown in this Attachment F.
3.
SDG&E will invoice DWR based on actual costs and provide DWR with an invoice itemizing and documenting such costs.
4.
With the exception of Customer Service Representative calls, SDG&E is unable to track, itemize and document costs for Customer Bill Inquiries without undertaking extensive system programming and hardware upgrades. Specifically, these types of inquiries include field calls, meter re-reads, re-bills and meter tests. Based on 2001 20/20 Program activity levels, SDG&E does not anticipate any incremental increase in costs for these activities. Accordingly, SDG&E has not included cost estimates for these types of Customer Bill Inquiries in the table below. However, DWR agrees that if SDG&E should experience a significant increase in activity levels for the types of customer bill inquiries described above, SDG&E will notify DWR and provide to DWR documentation reasonably necessary to establish such activity levels. SDG&E and DWR shall negotiate a mutually acceptable adjustment based on an estimate of reasonable costs for the applicable increased Customer Bill Inquiries.
