TO: COMPETITIVE LOCAL EXCHANGE CARRIERS AND NONDOMINANT
INTEREXCHANGE CARRIERS INTERESTED IN PETITION (P.) 02-12-039

The Administrative Law Judge's (ALJ) Revised Draft Decision in P.02-12-039 proposes to initiate a rulemaking to amend General Order (GO) 77-K to increase the executive compensation level that triggers reporting under GO 77-K. The rulemaking would also examine whether Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs) and Nondominant Interexchange Carriers (NDIECs) should be exempted from the provisions of GO 77. This revised draft decision replaces the ALJ's draft decision mailed to the service list for P.02-12-039 on June 27, 2003.

The ALJ's Revised Draft Decision in P.02-12-039 is available at the Commission's web site:

http://www.cpuc.ca.gov. See "Proceedings," and then find "Currently Open for Comment."

Parties who require a paper copy of this revised draft decision should direct their request to the Commission's Central Files office at 415-703-2045.

This revised draft decision will be on the agenda at the August 21, 2003 Commission meeting. The Commission may then vote on this revised draft decision, or it may postpone a vote.

When the Commission votes on a draft decision, it may adopt all or part of it as written, amend or modify it, or set it aside and prepare a different decision. Only when the Commission acts does the decision become binding on the parties.

Interested Parties may submit comments on the revised draft decision in P.02-12-039 as provided in Article 19 of the Commission's "Rules of Practice and Procedure." These rules are accessible on the Commission's website at http://www.cpuc.ca.gov.
