Gang,
 
DWR believes it is not a party to any proceeding at the CPUC on its rev req, but, apparently, is trying to move things along by allowing a bit of a process (although it appears to be self-adjudicating).  It is seeking written comments by Oct 26 (lots of notice) on its latest revenue requirement and wants data requests submitted by COB today.  I'm assuming that we don't want to participate.  Let me know if any of you believe otherwise.

Subject: FW: A. 00-11-038 Data Requests Submitted to CDWR

 Dear parties to A. 00-11-038:

As many parties are aware, on October 19, 2001, the California Department of Water Resources ("CDWR") released a draft updated revenue requirement to the public. On October 21, 2001, CDWR held a public workshop in Sacramento to provide an overview of the draft updated revenue requirement and answer questions from the public. In addition, on October 23, 2001, CDWR and its consultants held a telephone conference call to discuss the model supporting the updated draft revenue requirement with those parties that have executed a nondisclosure agreement with CDWR and Navigant Consulting, Inc. ("NDA"). CDWR is accepting written comments on its October 19, 2001 draft updated revenue requirement on or before October 26, 2001 and intends to submit an updated revenue requirement to the California Public Utilities Commission ("CPUC") on or about November 2, 2001. Written comments may be submitted electronically to CDWR to the attention of the following persons:

Ron Nichols (Navigant Consulting, Inc) at [email-masked] <mailto:[email-masked]>

Peter Garris (Acting Deputy Director, CDWR) at [email-masked] <mailto:[email-masked]>

In the context of the ongoing revenue requirement allocation proceeding at the CPUC, parties to A.00-11-038 et al. have previously submitted written data requests to CDWR in response to CDWR's August 7th revenue requirement submission to the CPUC.  Responses to these data requests would not have been helpful to the parties because CDWR was preparing an updated revenue requirement.  CDWR believed it would be more productive for all parties for CDWR to address questions concerning the updated revenue requirement rather than respond to questions pertaining to the prior filing.  Further, CDWR has not intervened as an active party in the CPUC proceeding and is not under an obligation to respond to parties' data requests. Notwithstanding this fact and in order to facilitate the prompt resolution of the CPUC revenue requirement allocation proceeding, CDWR intends to provide written responses to parties' data requests on or before November 1, 2001. CDWR will provide its responses to data requests to the entire service list for A.00-11-038, with the exception that NCI Confidential Information will only be disclosed to those parties that have executed an NDA. CDWR does not intend to provide responses to data requests relating to the August 7th revenue requirement as that submission will be superceded by an updated revenue requirement. CDWR requests that parties to A.00-11-038 submit any further written data requests concerning the October 19th draft updated revenue requirement by close of business today.  Resource constraints will prevent CDWR from responding to further data requests, which are not received by CDWR by close of business today.

Please telephone me with any questions.
