BEFORE THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA Application of Southern California Edison Company (U 338-E) for Approval of the Results of Its 2013 Local Capacity Requirements Request for Offers for the Moorpark Sub-Area. A.14-11-016 (Filed November 26, 2014) SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY S (U 338-E) MOTION TO STRIKE TESTIMONY I. INTRODUCTION Pursuant to Rule 11.1 of the Rules of Practice and Procedure of the California Public Utilities Commission ( Commission or CPUC ), Southern California Edison Company ( SCE ) hereby moves to strike the prepared testimony, and corresponding exhibits, appendices and attachments, submitted by the City of Oxnard, NRG Energy Center Oxnard LLC ( NRG ) and the California Environmental Justice Alliance ( CEJA ). Specifically, SCE moves to strike the prepared testimony of David Cannon and Dr. David Revell on behalf of the City of Oxnard, the prepared testimony of Phillip Mineart on behalf of NRG and the prepared testimony of Amy Vanderwarker on behalf of CEJA. SCE moves to strike the aforementioned prepared testimony and corresponding exhibits, appendices and attachments on the grounds that these materials are outside of the scope of this proceeding. 1

II. DISCUSSION The March 13, 2015 Assigned Commissioner s Ruling and Scoping Memo ( Scoping Memo ) established the scope of this proceeding, SCE s Application for approval of contracts resulting from its 2013 Local Capacity Requirements ( LCR ) Request for Offers ( RFO ) for the Moorpark sub-area. The Scoping Memo set forth seven issues to be addressed in this proceeding. The prepared testimony and corresponding exhibits, appendices and attachments submitted by the City of Oxnard, NRG and CEJA are outside of the scope of this proceeding. A. The City of Oxnard & NRG s Prepared Testimony and Corresponding Exhibits and Appendices Are Beyond the Scope of the Proceeding In his direct testimony, Dr. Revell states that his testimony assesses the vulnerability of the Proposed Mandalay Generating Station... to existing and future coastal hazards and climate change impacts. 1 Similarly, Mr. Cannon states that his testimony assesses potential inundation of the Project site from future tsunami events.... 2 Phillip Mineart s testimony provides an excerpt from the [application for certification] to be filed with the [CEC] that is titled Appendix N-2 Technical Memorandum Sea Level Rise Analysis Prepared in Support of Application for Certification, Puente Power Project. 3 However, assessing whether proposed generation and the location of such proposed generation is vulnerable to environmental impacts is exclusively within the jurisdiction of the California Energy Commission ( CEC ): The [CEC] has the exclusive authority to certify the construction and operation of thermal electric power plants 50 megawatts or larger and all related facilities in our state. The [CEC s] thorough site certification process provides a timely review and analysis of all aspects of a proposed project, including need, public health and environmental impacts, safety, efficiency, and reliability. In its 1 Testimony of Dr. David Revell on Behalf of the City of Oxnard at 1. 2 Testimony of David Cannon on Behalf of the City of Oxnard at 1. 3 Prepared Testimony of Phillip Mineart, P.E. on Behalf of NRG Energy Center Oxnard LLC at 1. 2

review, the [CEC] must determine whether the project will be constructed and operated in conformance with all applicable Laws, Ordinances, Regulations and Standards (LORS). 4 The CEC, not the Commission, is the proper venue to assess whether the location of the NRG Energy Center project would be adversely impacted by, and is vulnerable to, sea level rise, tsunamis and other climate impacts. Furthermore, it is not clear whether the location of the proposed NRG Energy Center project is indeed vulnerable to environmental impacts, as demonstrated by the differing assessments in the documents submitted by the City of Oxnard and NRG. 5 These differing assessments should be evaluated and verified by the CEC through its certification process, not through a proceeding in which the Commission is primarily considering the reasonableness of SCE s LCR RFO and the contracts executed as a result of that RFO. In the Scoping Memo, the Commission states that the CEC is the lead agency for purposes of the CEQA review [, and] [a]s a result, environmental matters will largely be resolved by the CEC. 6 Commission precedent also establishes that it should not impose an additional, out-of-scope review of the environmental issues in this proceeding. The Commission dealt with a similar issue in Resolution E-4522. One matter at issue in Resolution E-4522, in which the Commission was deciding whether to grant SCE s request to approve five power purchase agreements ( PPAs ), was the Sierra Club and CBD s protest to have a project rejected due to 4 CEC website ( Energy Facilities Licensing Process ) at http://www.energy.ca.gov/siting/guide_license_process.html; CEC website ( Laws, Ordinances, Regulations and Standards in Siting Cases ) at http://www.energy.ca.gov/public_adviser/lors_faq.html; see also Public Resources Code Section 25500 et seq. 5 See Prepared Testimony of Phillip Mineart, P.E. on Behalf of NRG Energy Center Oxnard LLC, Appendix B, Excerpt from Application for Certification for the Puente Power Project; Testimony of Dr. David Revell on Behalf of the City of Oxnard, Exhibit CO-4 ( Vulnerabilities of the Proposed Mandalay Generating Station to Existing and Future Coastal Hazards and Sea Level Rise ); Testimony of David Cannon on Behalf of the City of Oxnard, Exhibit CO-2 ( Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment: Tsunami Analysis Mandalay Bay Generating Station ). 6 Scoping Memo at 5. See also Resolution E-4522, 2012 Cal. PUC LEXIS 755, at *46 (October 25, 2012) ( The Commission also notes that environmental permitting for the PPAs is the jurisdiction of the California Energy Commission. ). 3

project viability concerns resulting from biological impact. 7 Although the Commission acknowledge[d] that [the] environmental issues with [the project] ha[d] the potential to pose significant risks, it was decided that the Commission [would] not pre-judge the projects in light of these issues. 8 The Commission also found it prudent to trust that the California Energy Commission and other environmental agencies w[ould] ensure the environmental impacts of the project are minimized. 9 B. CEJA s Prepared Testimony and Corresponding Attachments Are Beyond the Scope of the Proceeding CEJA s prepared testimony identifies Oxnard as a vulnerable, environmentally burdened community and raises concerns regarding the potential effects that the NRG Energy Center project might have on Oxnard and its residents. 10 Like the environmental concerns raised by the City of Oxnard and NRG, the types of issues raised by CEJA are within the jurisdiction of the CEC and will be assessed by the CEC during its certification process. 11 The [CEC] has been integrating environmental justice into its siting process since 1995, as part of its thorough California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis of applications for siting power plants and related facilities. 12 The CEC [s]taff [] analyzes potential issues involving disproportionate 7 Resolution E-4522, 2012 Cal. PUC LEXIS 755, at *45 (October 25, 2012). 8 Id. 9 Id. at *46. 10 CEJA Testimony at 7. 11 See CEC website ( Energy Facilities Licensing Process ) at http://www.energy.ca.gov/siting/guide_license_process.html, and ( Laws, Ordinances, Regulations and Standards in Siting Cases ) at http://www.energy.ca.gov/public_adviser/lors_faq.html; Public Resources Code Section 25500 et seq. 12 See CEC website ( Environmental Justice ) at http://www.energy.ca.gov/public_adviser/environmental_justice_faq.html. See also NRG Testimony of D. Gleiter at 5 (The CEC s certification decisions typically include [a] detailed assessment of public health and safety, analyzing compliance with [law, ordinances, regulations and standards] and potential impacts in the areas of greenhouse gas emissions, air quality, [and] public health.... ). 4

impacts on minority and low-income populations resulting from exposure to direct and cumulative impacts associated with the proposed facility. 13 The environmental quality concerns raised in the prepared testimony, and corresponding exhibits, appendices and attachments, by the City of Oxnard, NRG and CEJA will be addressed during the course of the CEC s certification process and are not within the scope of this proceeding. III. CONCLUSION For the reasons set forth above, SCE respectfully requests that the Commission strike the prepared testimony and corresponding exhibits, appendices and attachments submitted by the City of Oxnard, NRG and CEJA.
