Balancing Account for Changes to Customers Qualifying for Backbone Level End-Use Service. PG&E will continue to track the change in local transmission demand arising from any changes to the customers that are identified as eligible for backbone level end-use service as of the date of a Commission order approving this Settlement. PG&E will record the revenue debit or credit entry based on the customer's actual annual demand multiplied by the applicable local transmission rate in effect, for each customer identified as a change. The tracked amount will be allocated to the Core Fixed Cost Account and the Noncore Customer Class Charge Account in the same proportion as local transmission costs are allocated between core and noncore customers, respectively, and will be reflected in rates in the Annual Gas True-Up of Balancing Account filings (Annual Gas True-Up). This treatment does not apply to new customers or, during the term of this Settlement, to customers who become eligible for Backbone Level Service as a result of Sections 3.4.1 or 3.4.2.
