Energy: natural gas restructuring.

Under existing law, the Public Utilities Commission has regulatory authority over public utilities, including gas corporations, as defined. Existing law relative to the restructuring of the natural gas industry requires the commission to require each gas corporation to provide bundled basic gas service, as defined, to all core customers in its service territory unless the customer chooses or contracts to have natural gas purchased and supplied by another entity. That law additionally requires that a gas corporation continue to be the exclusive provider of revenue cycle services, as defined, in its service territory, with certain exceptions. This bill would make various technical, nonsubstantive changes to the above.
