    On January 28, 2019, City and County of San Francisco (San

Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) pursuant to sections 206, 306, 
and 309 of the

[[Page 29200]]

Federal Power Act \1\ and Rule 206 of the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission's (Commission) Rules of Practice and Procedure,\2\ alleging 
that PG&E has violated its open-access Wholesale Distribution Tariff 
(WDT) and that it is implementing its WDT in a manner that is unjust, 
unreasonable, and unduly discriminatory. The Complaint was noticed with 
a comment date of February 19, 2019.

    \1\ 16 U.S.C. 824e, 825e, and 825h.
    \2\ 18 CFR 385.206.

    On February 19, 2019, PG&E filed a notice in this proceeding 
stating that it filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy 
Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of 
California, and thus the automatic stay provision of section 362 of the 
Bankruptcy Code applied to stay the instant proceeding. Subsequently, 
on May 30, 2019, PG&E filed an answer to the Complaint (Answer). PG&E 
notes in its Answer that on May 15, 2019, the Honorable Dennis Montali, 
the judge presiding over PG&E's bankruptcy proceeding, ruled that San 
Francisco ``could continue to prosecute this Complaint and FERC could 
continue to hear it.'' \3\

    Upon consideration, to provide other interested persons with an 
opportunity to move to intervene in this proceeding and comment on the 
Complaint, the comment date is hereby extended to and including June 
27, 2019.

    Dated: June 17, 2019.
