June 19, 2003 - Opionion Adopting Final Mitigated Negative Declaraction and Dismissing Applications without Prejudice
  • As is acknowledged by Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) order renewing PG&E's Pit 1 hydroelectric plant license bars the transfer of land and other property at issue in these consolidated applications (A.00-05-029 and A.00-05-030), since some of the land is within the license boundary. Though PG&E had asked FERC to remove certain lands from the license, FERC has declined to do so. Accordingly, the CPUC dismiss these applications without prejudice; if PG&E is able to restructure the transactions, it may refile. To ensure that the environmental review performed to date is not lost, the Final Mitigated Negative Declaration (Final MND) prepared in conjunction with these applications is adopted.
