§ 980

Added by Stats. 2013, Ch. 604, Sec. 4. (SB 656) Effective January 1, 2014.

As used in this chapter, the following terms mean the following:

(a)“Core gas customer” has the same meaning as that specified in the tariff of the gas corporation whose territory the customer in question lies within. A core small commercial customer account that is associated with and part of the same business operation as a noncore large commercial customer account is not a “core gas customer” for purposes of this chapter.
(b)“Core transport agent” means an entity that offers core gas procurement service to customers within the service territory of a gas corporation, but does not include a gas corporation, and does not include a public agency that offers gas

service to core and noncore gas customers within its jurisdiction, or within the service territory of a local publicly owned gas utility. “Core transport agent” includes the unregulated affiliates and subsidiaries of a gas corporation.

(c)“Gas corporation” has the same meaning as that set forth in Section 222.
