- On November 8, 2022, the Rule 20 Phase II workshop will educate and allow public participation on possible changes to the Rule 20 program scoped in Phase 2 of this rulemaking, while giving a platform to party perspectives on said changes.
- Stakeholders were presented with the opportunity to provide input on how the Rule 20 Program may take additional shape via a scoping memo issued on August 16, 2022, and help inform the next phase of the Proceeding, known as Phase 2. The Phase 2 scope of issues includes:
- Whether to take additional steps to support the completion of active Rule 20A projects in underserved communities and/or disadvantaged communities;
- Whether to modify or discontinue the Rule 20D program;
- Whether to add Rule 20A project eligibility criteria for wildfire safety and emergency-related undergrounding or otherwise modify Rule 20A project eligibility criteria;
- Whether to modify the Rule 20 program to support future projects in underserved, tribal, and/or disadvantaged communities or otherwise advance the goals of the Commission’s Environmental and Social Justice Action Plan;
- Whether the Commission or utilities should enhance engagement with local governments to inform utility investments in undergrounding for safety, resilience, or emergency-related purposes.
