Section 17.1 - (Rule 17.1) Notice of Intent to Claim Compensation
(a) A notice of intent to claim compensation may be filed:
(1) in a proceeding in which a prehearing conference is held, any time after the start of the proceeding until 30 days after the prehearing conference.
(2) in a quasi-legislative proceeding in which a prehearing conference is not held in advance of the issuance of the scoping memo, any time until 30 days after the issuance of the scoping memo.
(3) in a petition for rulemaking, any time after the petition is filed until 30 days after the time for filing responses. If the petitioner intends to request compensation, the petition itself may include a notice of intent. If a prehearing conference is later held, the notice may be filed pursuant to subsection (a)(1).
(4) in a proceeding where the Commission anticipates that the proceeding will take less than 30 days, by any deadline that may be established by the Administrative Law Judge.
(b) An amended notice of intent may be filed within 15 days after the issuance of the scoping memo in the proceeding.
(c) The notice of intent shall identify all issues on which the intervenor intends to participate and seek compensation, and shall separately state the expected budget for participating on each issue. The notice of intent may include a category of general costs not attributable to a particular issue.
(d) If the intervenor claims eligibility on the basis of customer status, the notice of intent shall provide either (1) verification of the intervenor's customer status pursuant to Public Utilities Code Section 1802(b)(1)(A) or (B), or (2) a copy of articles of incorporation or bylaws demonstrating the intervenor's customer status pursuant to Public Utilities Code Section 1802(b)(1)(C) or, if current articles or bylaws have already been filed with the Commission, a specific reference to such filings.
(e) If the intervenor claims eligibility on the basis of being an eligible local government entity, the notice of intent shall provide verification that it meets the definition pursuant to Public Utilities Code Section 1802(d).
(f) The notice of intent shall state the intervenor's economic interest in the proceeding, as that interest relates to the issues on which the intervenor intends to participate.
(g) Responses to notices of intent to claim compensation shall be filed within 15 days of service of the notice.
