6:21 pm
green tariff my cancel or terminate their enrollment at any time without a termination fee the one condition they've identified if the customers try to reenroll three can't do so for a year this particular advice letter included pricing for the program and the pricing varies by the customer class that's been served and i'm happy to report most the prices are above the $0.02 premium i included in the not to exceed proposal adopted by the sfpuc and two small and medium commercial are slightly below
6:22 pm
the two crept as it becomes finalized we've modify that to be consist consistent with the green tariff and to be clear they'll be locked into open what their submitted in the letter. >> no. >> through the pricing. >> to be proved by the public utilities commission. >> this is pg&e's final proposal it is not final until a cpc resolution approvals that this is a protest period and that protest are period ends june 2nd so sfpuc staff are evaluating the letters for potential comments or protests as other equities so. >> that will be set after the protest test by the california public utilities commission and what comes to our final prices
