Pacific Gas and Electric Company, San Diego Gas & Electric 
Company and Southern California Edison Co.; Notice of Filing

May 14, 1996.
    Take notice that Pacific Gas and Electric Company, San Diego Gas & 
Electric Company, and Southern California Edison Company (``the 
Companies''), on April 29, 1996, tendered for filing a Joint 
Application for Authorization To Convey Operational Control of 
Designated Jurisdictional Facilities to an Independent System Operator. 
This application requests authorization to transfer operational control 
(but not ownership) of certain transmission facilities to an 
Independent System Operator (``ISO''). The application describes the 
proposed governance and structure of the ISO, the manner in which the 
ISO will operate, and the transmission access and pricing rules that 
will apply to service over the ISO grid.
    In addition, the application sets forth recommended time frames for 
actions by the Companies, the Commission, and the participants in this 
proceeding. The Commission invites comments on these procedural 
proposals in addition to comments on the substantive proposal.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest such application 
should file a petition to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Sections 214 and 211 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.214 and 385.211. All petitions or 
protests should be filed on or before June 13, 1996. Protests will be 
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to 
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a petition 
to intervene. Copies of this application are on file with the 
Commission and are available for public inspection.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
