FOOTNOTE DATA
Schedule Page: 401 Line No.: 3 Column: b
This includes conventional plants only. It does not include combustion turbines, which is
shown separately on Line 7.
Schedule Page: 401 Line No.: 7 Column: b
This includes combustion turbines and photo voltaic generation of 133,677 MWH and 4,605
MWH, respectively.
Schedule Page: 401 Line No.: 10 Column: b
Actual purchases from pages 326-327 were 44,837,023 MWH. For purposes only of accounting
for the total energy that went through the Utility's electric system, the MWH for Direct
Access ("DA") of 4,192,541 MWH and California Department of Water Resources ("DWR")
deliveries of 9,799,434 MWH were added to this line item. It should be noted that DA and
DWR megawatts are not Utility purchases and were reported here only because page 401 of
the Form 1 does not have any other available line where DA and DWR deliveries can be shown
more appropriately.
The Utility acts as a pass-through entity for electricity purchased by the DWR that is
sold to the Utility's customers. Although charges for electricity provided by the DWR are
included in the amounts the Utility bills its customers, the Utility deducts from
electricity revenues amounts passed through to the DWR. The pass-through amounts are based
on the quantities of electricity provided by the DWR that are consumed by customers,
priced at the related CPUC-approved remittance rate. These pass-through amounts are
excluded from the Utility's electricity revenues in its Statement of Income.

This includes MWH sales for DWR and DA as discussed in the footnote to Line 10, column b.
