To avoid having service turned off while you wait for the outcome of a complaint to
the CPUC specifically regarding the accuracy of your bill, please contact CAB for
assistance. If your case meets the eligibility criteria, CAB will provide you with
instructions on how to mail a check or money order to be impounded pending
resolution of your case. You must continue to pay your current charges while your
complaint is under review to keep your service turned on.

income-qualified residential customers.
Important definitions
Rotating outage blocks are subject to change without advance notice due to
operational conditions.
Tier 1/Baseline allowance: Some residential rates are given a Tier 1/Baseline
allowance - a CPUC approved percentage of average customer usage during
summer and winter months. Your Tier 1/Baseline allowance provides for basic
needs at an affordable price and encourages conservation. Your allowance is
assigned based on the climate where you live, the season and your heat source. As
you use more energy, you pay more for usage. Any usage over your baseline
allowance will be charged at a higher price.
High Usage: An increased price per kWh whenever electricity usage exceeds four
times the Baseline Allowance (Tier 1) in a billing period. This charge does not apply
to Time-of-Use rate plans.
DWR bond charge: Recovers the cost of bonds issued by the Department of
Water Resources (DWR) to purchase power to serve electric customers during
the California energy crisis. DWR bond charges are collected on behalf of DWR
and do not belong to PG&E.
Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA): Ensures that non-exempt
customers under PG&E's GT and ECR rate schedules or who purchase electricity
(generation) from non-PG&E suppliers pay their share of generation costs.
Gas Public Purpose Program (PPP) Surcharge. Used to fund state-mandated
gas assistance programs for low-income customers, energy efficiency programs,
and public-interest research and development.
