           SUBJECT  :    Public Utilities Commission:  President

           SOURCE  :     Author


           DIGEST  :    This bill combines two disparate code sections  
          that relate to requirement that the president of the  
          California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) appear before  
          the Legislature to report on the annual work plan, and the  
          requirement that the CPUC develop the annual work plan.

           ANALYSIS  :    This bill makes minor technical changes to  
          coordinate two disparate code sections.  Public Utilities  
          Code section 321.6 requires the CPUC to develop a work plan  
          that describes the scheduled ratemaking proceedings and  
          other decisions that may be considered by the CPUC during  
          the calendar year.  Public Utilities Code section 1701.6  
          requires the president of the CPUC to annually appear  
          before the appropriate policy committees of the Senate and  
                                                           CONTINUED

          Assembly to report on the annual work plan.  

          This bill places the requirement that the president report  
          the work plan to both policy committees of the Legislature,  
          in the same code section as the requirement to perform the  
          annual work plan. 

          All of the provisions in this bill are non-substantive and  
          without opposition. In addition, the relevant regulatory  
          agency has been consulted and has expressed no concern. 

          As the code cleanup bill, the bill does not and will not  
          contain any section to which any party objects.
