Pursuant to the schedule ultimately determined by the assigned Administrative Law Judge (ALJ), opening briefs were filed on February 20, 2018 by SCE and SDG&E (jointly, as the Southern California Joint Utilities; any reference in this decision to “Joint Utilities” is also a reference solely to SCE and SDG&E), CCEA, WRCOG , LACCE and CVAG (jointly, as Joint Parties), ORA and CforAT. Reply Briefs were filed on March 13, 2018 by the Southern California Joint Utilities, CCEA, ORA and CforAT (jointly) and Brightline Defense. After briefs and reply briefs were filed, several procedural motions were filed that we address in this decision. On March 13, 2018 SCE filed a Motion for Submission of Additional Evidence into the Record. On March 28, 2018 ORA filed a Motion to Strike Declarations and Related References in the Reply Brief of Southern California Edison Company and San Diego Gas & Electric Company on Track 1 Issues. Finally, in a procedural development that affects the scope of the instant decision, on March 28, 2018 PG&E filed and served on behalf of itself and CforAT, MCE, ORA, TURN, and Brightline Defense (collectively, Settling Parties), a “Joint Motion of the Settling Parties for Adoption of Settlement Agreement”. The proposed PG&E Settlement Agreement resolves the availability of the exemption for medical baseline customers taking energy from community choice aggregators in PG&E’s service territory and will be addressed in a separate decision. Because the March 28, 2018 Settlement Agreement resolves all Track 1 issues in PG&E’s service territory, the instant decision resolves all Track 1 issues with respect to PCIA exemptions in the service territories of SCE and SDG&E.
