The Applicants state that “While SDG&E does not measure throughput by individual pipelines for the majority of pipelines on its system, as of May, 2011, it does have metered deliveries into Line 1600 at the custody transfer point with SoCalGas located at the Rainbow Metering Station.” (SDG&E/SoCalGas Opening Brief at 120 citing Exh. SDGE12 (Supplemental Testimony at 161:711).) SDG&E claims that it has provided sufficient basic information by providing Exh. SDGE12, Attachment D. They further state that the “Utilities are not aware of any Commission requirement to meter individual pipelines in their gas system at all.” (SDG&E/SoCalGas Opening Brief at 120.) ORA claims that the Applicant has misinterpreted the instructions in the Scoping Memo. The Applicants “claim to interpret the phrase ‘through Line 1600’ as meaning into and through some portion of Line 1600; and that any other interpretation would be inconsistent with how a gas system operates.” (ORA Reply Brief at 13.) ORA suggests that this information is needed to demonstrate what volumes would need to be replaced by Line 3602 if Line 1600 is derated as they propose. “Along Line 1600, SoCalGas/SDG&E measure volumes at Rainbow Metering Station, but not at points where other transmission lines
