At 7:30 this morning the CPUC sent out a ruling from ALJ Minkin in the  
post-transition ratemaking docket.? This is the docket in which SCE and  PG&E 
filed their emergency petitions for modification this week.? Those  petitions 
sought to overturn the ruling in the PTR II proceeding that prevented  the 
utilities from collecting any costs incurred during the rate freeze period  
after the rate freeze had ended.
?
ALJ Minkin has directed the utilities by October 17 to go open kimono with  
all of their financial data since 98 and in some cases, since 97.? There is  
also information pertaining to their holding company and all affiliates 
which  must be provided.
?
Sweetest of all, she directs that any party to the PTR proceeding must be  
provided a copy upon request.? They can request that a confidentiality  
agreement be signed, but they can not request confidentiality for any public  
document.? The ruling says nothing about the accelerated briefing schedules  
which were requested by the utilities in their emergency filings.
?
The following is a list of the requested information:

"a. Copies of the Transition Revenue Account (TRA) reports and TRA  balances
