green tags/renewable energy certificates [RE-wrenches]

[Dean T. Newberry]

<x-flowed>
Hi Marco,
Rumor around here is that FERC ruled against PG&E's grab for the green 
tags in their territory. I am trying to find out what the PUC might need 
to do to clarify the issue so we can sell green tags in the Investor 
Owned Utility regions of california.
