Bodovitz Executive Director Public Utilities Commission State of California 350 McAllister Street - Room 5052 San Francisco, California 94102 Dear Mr. Bodovitz: Pacific Gas and Electric Company respectfully withdraws Application Nos. 58911 and 58912 and all accompanying exhibits, filed on June 6, 1979 and subse- quently amended on January 25, 1982. No part of either Application or exhibit was heard by the Commission. Concurrently with this letter of withdrawal, PGandE is filing with the Commission today a new Appli- cation seeking rate relief for the costs of owning, operating, maintaining and eventually decommissioning Unit No. 1 at Diablo Canyon. This Application differs from the earlier Application and Amendment in format as well as in costs and schedule. Because of these differences, we believe that these proceedings will be more expeditious and to the benefit of all parties, if we begin with a new Application. us: af Very truly yours, n PET R W.

'REMIt CITY CLaX CITY OF LSI Application No. 84-06-014 NOTICE OF FILING Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PGandE) has filed Application No. 84-06-014 in which it requests authority from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to establish a rate adjustment procedure for its Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant (Diablo Canyon); and for a net increase in electric rates of $296.9 million at such time as Unit 1 of Diablo Canyon becomes commercially operative, to cover the costs of owning, operating, maintaining, and eventually decommissioning Unit 1. This net increase reflects a gross increase of $699.8 million reduced by $366.6 million under the Energy Cost Adjustment Clause (ECAC) and by $36.3 million under the Annual Energy Rate (AER) as a result of decreased energy costs. The resulting net change in jurisdictional energy charges is 7.5 percent. The percentage impact by customer class is as follows: Residential 7.6; Light and 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 13 14 15! 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 E Power (small) 7.60 (medium) 7.6, (large) 7.6; Agricultural 7.6; Streetlight 4.4. PGandE has requested that the Commission adopt a three part procedure to reflect Diablo Canyon in rates. During Phase I of this procedure, prior to or upon commercial operation of Unit 1, the Commission would establish a Diablo Canyon Adjustment Clause (DCAC) in PGandE's Electric Tariff which would incorporate a Diablo Canyon Adjustment Account (DCAA) to account for any under or over recovery of carrying costs associated with the capital investment in Unit 1. The balance in the DCAA would begin to be amortized and recovered in rates one year after Unit 1 begins commercial operation. Upon commercial operation.of Unit 1, the Commission would authorize interim rates for the cost of owning, operating, maintaining and eventually decommissioning Unit 1. The rates would be based on an adopted estimate of the final capital cost of Unit 1. Concurrent with the authorization of interim rates for Unit 1, electric rates would be reduced under ECAC and AER to reflect the reduced fossil fuel require- ments and other energy cost savings resulting from Unit 1 operation. Phase II of the rate procedure will consist of an amendment to this application to reflect in rates the costs and savings of,Unit 2. Upon commercial operation of Unit 2, interim rates would be established based upon an adopted estimate of its final capital cost.

Concurrent with i.:4 authorization of interim rates for Unit 2, electric rates would be reduced under ECAC and AER to reflect the reduced fossil fuel require- ments and other energy cost savings resulting from Unit 2 operation. Phase III will run concurrently with the review and implementation of Phases I and II, and would constitute the Commission's review of the reasonableness of the costs incurred in constructing Diablo Canyon. The rates requested in this application will not (raise PGandE's Electric Department rate of return above the level found reasonable by the Commission in the Company's most recent general rate case decision (Decision No. 83-12- 068, dated December 22, 1983).
