The following items were discussed: The portion of the bill that would make entities who sell to the DWR regulated utilities will be amended. This was not the intent of the author. The $.5.5 will be amended as the author and committee acknowledged that it was completely impractical. No indication as to what the new number would be, although it is likely that there will be a number versus being silent on the issue. The bill will be amended to allow for portfolio purchases. The bill will be amended to eliminate the prohibition on the state owning T&D. The five year sunset review may be reduced to a hard three year sunset. According to the author, it is not the intent of the bill to enable IOUs to repay past debts with surplus revenue if the state is able to buy inexpensive power and there was room under the existing cap. Consumer advocates believe under this scenario there should be a rate reduction. QF contracts are a major stumbling block as they have not been paid by the IOUs and would prefer to have contracts with the state. Under this scenario, the $400 million would be far too small a number to make up the net short. Current negotiations with the IOUs have ground to a halt. Several parties suggested that the DWR also be authorized to make gas purchases. The Calpine proposal of 2,500 mw at 5.5 was deemed insufficient due to its complex structure, thereby reinforcing the notion that 5.5 is not feasible.
