Fuel Procurement Strategies. Under the Contracts with Fuel Option, upon Utility's recommendation, and DWR's review and approval of such recommendation, Utility will be responsible for procuring the natural gas fuel from a list of approved gas providers. Utility shall, acting as the limited agent of DWR, have administrative and operational responsibility for determining its gas procurement strategies, including but not limited to (i) types of contracts, (ii) length of contracts, (iii) pricing terms, (iv) use of storage, (v) types of gas transportation, (vi) delivery point(s), (vii) whether and how to obtain gas price forecasts, (viii) if and what risk management tools are to be used, and (ix) how to maintain current market intelligence. Utility shall consolidate these strategies and submit them to DWR and the Commission as a "Utility Gas Supply Plan" by April 17, 2003 and, thereafter on a semi-annual basis during the Term. Utility may also provide a copy of such Gas Supply Plan to DWR in advance of the filing with the Commission so as to be able to indicate DWR's approval of such plan. Utility shall indicate in its Advice Letter filing to the Commission whether DWR has approved such plan as appropriate. DWR shall also formally notify the Commission when it has approved such plan. DWR and the Commission will review and approve the Utility Gas Supply Plans. In the event of conflicting guidance between the Commission and DWR regarding various aspects of the Gas Supply Plan they respectively approve or reject, where DWR only approves a subset of what the Commission approves, then Utility shall operate within the sphere of DWR's approval. If, however, the Commission explicitly rejects portions of the Gas Supply Plan that DWR would authorize, then Utility must operate within the limitations of the Commission's decision. After a reasonable period of time operating within the framework of the Gas Supply Plans and the Commission's and DWR's respective approval and/or rejection of various pieces of the Gas Supply Plan, the Parties agree to meet and confer to determine whether the approval process may need to be revised in some manner, and Utility shall submit to Commission any such proposed revisions. Once approved, Utility may act within such Utility Gas Supply Plan without further DWR involvement, except as provided below.
