[Docket Nos. EL02-60-000; EL02-62-000; (Consolidated)]

Public Utilities Commission of the State of California, 
Complainant v. Sellers of Long-Term Contracts to the California 
Department of Water Resources, Respondent; Notice of Proposed 
Restricted Service List

    Rule 2010(d) of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's 
(Commission) Rules of Practice and Procedure provides that, to 
eliminate unnecessary expense or improve administrative efficiency, the 
Secretary may establish a restricted service list for a proceeding.\1\ 
The restricted service list should contain the names of persons on the 
service list who, in the judgment of the decisional authority 
establishing the list, are active participants with respect to the 
``proceeding or consolidated proceeding'' for which the list is 
established.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 18 CFR 385.2010(d) (2014).
    \2\ Id. at Sec.  2010(d)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On August 1, 2014, the California Public Utilities Commission 
(CPUC) requested that a restricted service list be established in the 
captioned consolidated dockets. The CPUC asserts that with the passage 
of time and various settlements the active parties have been 
significantly diminished. The CPUC also points out that there are 
numerous invalid addresses in the current lists, and that because the 
proceedings were initiated prior to March 21, 2005, electronic service 
is not the default means of service unless the parties otherwise 
agree.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Id. at Sec.  2010(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The CPUC asserts that is has served this request on the existing 
service lists in these proceedings, and has directly contacted the two 
remaining Respondents to the proceeding who

[[Page 52001]]

have indicated they do not oppose this request.
    Any person on the official service list for the above-captioned 
proceeding may request inclusion on the restricted service list, or may 
request that a restricted service list not be established, by filing a 
letter or pleading to that effect within 15 days of this notice date. 
Service pursuant to the restricted service list will be made by 
electronic means.\4\ Any person requesting inclusion on the restricted 
service list that has not previously done so should comply with the 
Commission's procedures for electronic registration.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Id. at Sec. Sec.  2010(f) and (g).
    \5\ Id. at Sec.  2010(h).

    Requests for inclusion on the restricted service list, or any other 
pleadings, may be filed electronically via the Internet. See 18 CFR 
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site

link. For a simpler method of submitting text only comments, click on

paper-file, mail an original and 5 copies to: Kimberly D. Bose, 
Secretary, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., 
Washington, DC 20426. Please put the docket number on the first page of 
the filing.
    If no pleadings opposing a restricted service list are filed, the 
restricted service list will be effective at the end of the 15-day 
period. Otherwise, a further notice will be issued ruling on any such 
pleadings filed within the 15-day period.

    Dated: August 25, 2014.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
