Text: 36 In No. 77-1676, SoCal challenges the conditions which the Commission saw fit to impose in the permanent certificate authorizing load equation. SoCal has indicated in its brief, however, that if the Commission is affirmed as to the pricing of the restitution gas, it will withdraw its appeal in the spirit of settlement. We believe this is a proper and commendable resolution to this controversy, and therefore, in light of our affirmance of the Commission in No. 78-1198, we dismiss the petition in No. 77-1676 as moot. Similarly, we dismiss PG&E's petition, No. 77-1830, as moot. PG&E argued that the Commission erred by refusing to consider the utility's status as a partial requirements customer in conditioning the permanent certificate. In its brief and at oral argument, however, PG&E has informed the court that the Commission has now provided a forum for this argument in another ongoing proceeding. PG&E has therefore suggested that the case is moot, and we dismiss it on their suggestion.
