(a)
A gas or electric system shall be considered acceptable for transfer if it is in compliance with the following criteria:
(1)
It is capable of providing the end users a safe and reliable source of gas or electric service.
(2)
It meets the commission’s general orders, is compatible, and, in the case of new construction, meets the gas or electric corporation’s design and construction standards insofar as they are
related to safety and reliability. The parties may waive these requirements by mutual agreement and, where necessary, with commission approval. The deviations as are agreed upon may be reflected in the purchase price.
(3)
It is capable of serving the customary expected load in the park or community determined in accordance with a site-specific study, studies of comparable parks or communities, industry standards, and the gas or electric corporation’s rules as approved by the commission.
(b)
As used in this section, “customary expected load” means the anticipated level of service demanded by the dwelling units in the park or community. The park or community owner shall not be responsible for betterments or improvements to the gas or electric corporation’s distribution system facilities or operations that do not benefit the park or community.
(c)
Satisfaction of the criteria shall not require any particular system architecture or replacement of used and useful equipment, plant, or facilities, except as needed to comply with subdivision (a). Equipment, facilities, or plant that are part of the existing gas or electric system shall be considered compatible unless their presence in the system would cause substantial increase in the frequency or duration of outages in the case of failure or emergency, or they have no remaining useful life. Pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 2793, equipment, facilities, or plant that require special training for the gas or electric corporation’s employees, or require the gas or electric corporation to maintain inventories of nonstandard equipment may be considered compatible, but their presence may be reflected in the appraised value or the cost imposed on the park or community owner.
