application with the CPUC by December 1, 2009.&#160;&#160;The Utility&#8217;s broad goals in this GRC are to fund continued investments in safe and reliable service, meet the economic needs of the communities served by the Utility, and work toward a greener, smarter energy future consistent with state and national goals for long-term environmental sustainability.</font></div>

annually on these infrastructure improvements, especially replacement of gas and electric systems that are at or near the end of their useful lives.&#160;&#160;The Utility also needs adequate funds to continue to safely operate, maintain and upgrade generation plants to serve growing demand.</font></div>

based on a forecast of costs for 2011.&#160;&#160;The draft application indicates that the Utility plans to request a revenue increase for 2011 of $1.069 billion, or 6.5%, above the 2010 total revenue forecast.</font></div>

accounts, and employee healthcare costs.</font></div>

would require revenue requirements to be adjusted to reflect changes in franchise, payroll, income, or property tax rates, as well as new taxes or fees imposed by governmental agencies.&#160;&#160;The Utility estimates that this mechanism would result in a revenue requirement increase of approximately $244 million in 2012 and an additional increase of approximately $326 million in 2013.&#160;&#160;The Utility would advise the CPUC of the actual amounts of these proposed increases in October 2011 and October 2012
for years 2012 and 2013, respectively.</font></div>
