PG&E Submits Revised Plan Designed to End Debts
LCG, March 11, 2002-On Thursday, PG&E filed an alternate plan for dealing with its bankruptcy. The first plan was rejected by Judge Dennis Montali because it allowed PG&E to preempt state law, splitting up PG&E's assets. The new plan requires redistributing $8 billion worth of PG&E assets into three companies, yeilding much state control over to the federal government. This plan does not deviate much from the PG&E's earlier attempt to split itself up, although this time 78,000 acres of watershed land would remain in PG&E's hands; state and federal officials, environmental groups, and farmers were concerned that authority over these environmentally-sensitive lands might be handed over. PG&E still wants to preempt other state laws, however, including those prohibiting the sale or transfer of power plants until 2006.The state has other plans for PG&E, and while the corporation believes its new filing will pull it out of debt and allow it to pay creditors, California says PG&E should use pre-existing funds to pay off its debt.
