Note 2. Recent Accounting Standards
The following is a summary of new accounting guidance adopted in 2009 and guidance issued but not yet adopted that could impact our businesses. The new accounting guidance adopted in 2009 did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Accounting standards adopted in 2009
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141(R))
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
requires all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination to be measured at their acquisition date fair value, with limited exceptions, and |
|
|
|
|
|
requires acquisition-related costs and certain restructuring costs to be recognized separately from the business combination.
|
We adopted SFAS 141(R) effective January 1, 2009. Any new business combination transactions will be accounted for under this guidance.
SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51 (SFAS 160)
|
|
|
|
|
changes the financial reporting relationship between a parent and non-controlling interests, |

|
13
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
|
|
|
|
|
applies prospectively, except for presentation and disclosure requirements, which are applied retrospectively.
|
We adopted SFAS 160 effective January 1, 2009 and revised the balance sheet and income statement presentations as required by the standard. The income statement impact was immaterial.
SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activitiesan amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161)
|
|
|
|
|
requires an entity to disclose an understanding of:
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
how and why it uses derivatives, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
how derivatives and related hedged items are accounted for, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
the overall impact of derivatives on an entitys financial statements.

|
|
|
|
|

|
We adopted SFAS 165 effective for our second quarter 2009 reporting. We evaluated any subsequent events through July 31, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were issued.
FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2)
|
|
|
|
|
revises recognition guidance in determining whether a debt security is other-than-temporarily impaired. A debt security is considered other-than-temporarily impaired in either of the following circumstances if the fair value is less than the amortized cost:
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
An entity has an intent to sell the security, or it is more likely than not that an entity will be required to sell the security prior to the recovery of its amortized cost basis or |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an entity does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security.
|
|
|
|
|
|
provides further guidance to determine the amount of impairment to be recorded in earnings (credit-related loss) and/ or Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss) (non-credit related loss).
|
We adopted FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 effective April 1, 2009 and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to reclassify $12 million of non-credit losses, net-of-tax, from retained earnings to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The expanded disclosures related to FSP FAS
115-2 and FAS 124-2 are included in Note 4. Available-for-Sale Securities.
FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1)
|
|
|
|
|
requires a publicly traded company to disclose the following information, in the notes to the financial statements:
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
fair value of its financial instruments in interim and annual reporting periods, together with the related carrying amounts,
|
14

|
¡ |
|

We adopted FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 effective April 1, 2009. For additional information / disclosures, see Note 9. Fair Value Measurements.
FSP FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly (FSP FAS 157-4)
|
¡ |
|
|
|
to determine if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
to estimate fair values, when transactions or quoted prices are not determinative of fair value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
requires management to use judgment to determine whether a market is distressed or not orderly, even if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability.
|
We adopted FSP FAS 157-4 effective April 1, 2009. For additional information / disclosures, see Note 9. Fair Value Measurements.
Accounting standards to be adopted effective for third quarter 2009 reporting
SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principlesa replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (SFAS 168)
|
|
|
|
|
issued by the FASB in June 2009, |
|
|
|
|
|
the single source of authoritative non-governmental U.S. GAAP other than the SEC rules, regulations, interpretive releases and the SEC staff guidance, |
|
|
|
|
|
does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place, and |
|
|
|
|
|
will not have any impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We are currently evaluating the impact to our financial reporting process which includes providing accounting references in our SEC filings and other documents. We anticipate eliminating specific accounting
references and replacing them with more general topical references.

|
issued by the FASB in December 2008, |
|
|
|
|
|
requires additional disclosures about the fair value of plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan, including:
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
how investment allocation decisions are made by management, |
|
¡ |

|
|
|
|
|
issued by the FASB in June 2009, |
|
|
|
|
|
removes the exception from applying consolidation guidance to qualifying special-purpose entities, |
|
|
|
|
|
requires ongoing assessment of the Companys involvement in the activities of a Variable Interest Entity (VIE), and |
|
|
|
|
|
amends the criteria in determination of a primary beneficiary, such that a primary beneficiary would be an enterprise with
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the economic performance of a VIE and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
|
We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our financial statements.

Dispositions
GWF Energy LLC (GWF Energy)
In May 2009, Energy Holdings entered into a Memorandum of Understanding under which it will sell, in two separate transactions, its 60% ownership interest in GWF Energy, an equity method investment, for a total purchase price of $70 million. As a result, Energy Holdings recorded an after-
tax impairment charge of $3 million.
Energy Holdings completed the first stage of the sale in June 2009, selling a 10.1% interest in GWF Energy for approximately $7 million. The sale of Energy Holdings remaining 49.9% interest is subject to certain conditions, including the execution of a new power purchase agreement (PPA)
with its customer and the related approval of the PPA by the California Public Utilities Commission.
PPN Power Generating Company Limited (PPN)
In May 2009, Energy Holdings sold its 20% ownership interest in PPN, which owns and operates a 330 MW generation facility in India for approximately book value.
Leveraged Leases
In the first six months of 2009, Energy Holdings sold its interest in nine leveraged leases with a combined book value of approximately $369 million, including seven international leases for which the IRS has disallowed deductions taken in prior years. Total proceeds for the sales were
approximately $460 million and resulted in an after-tax gain of $35 million. Proceeds from these transactions are being used to reduce Energy Holdings tax exposure related to these lease investments. For additional information see Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.
Other
In May 2009, Energy Holdings sold its 6.5% interest in the Midland Cogeneration Venture LP (MCV) for an after-tax gain of $2 million.
Note 4. Available-for-Sale Securities
NDT Funds
In accordance with NRC regulations, entities owning an interest in nuclear generating facilities are required to determine the costs and funding methods necessary to decommission such facilities upon termination of operation. As a general practice, each nuclear owner places funds in independent
external trust accounts it maintains to provide for decommissioning.
Power maintains the external master nuclear decommissioning trust which contains two separate funds: a qualified fund and a non-qualified fund. Section 468A of the Internal Revenue Code limits the amount of
17
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
money that can be contributed into a qualified fund. In the most recent study of the total cost of decommissioning, Powers share related to its five nuclear units was estimated at approximately $2.1 billion, including contingencies. The liability for decommissioning recorded on a discounted basis
as of June 30, 2009 was approximately $309 million and is included in the Asset Retirement Obligation (ARO). The trust funds are managed by third-party investment advisors who operate under investment guidelines developed by Powers NDT Investment Committee.
Power classifies investments in the NDT Funds as available-for-sale under SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, (SFAS 115). The following tables show the fair values and gross unrealized gains and losses for the securities held in the NDT Funds.

There were no gross unrealized losses as of December 31, 2008 for 12 months or longer. |
|
(A) |
|
|
|
Equity SecuritiesInvestments in marketable equity securities within the NDT fund are primarily investments in common stocks within a broad range of industries and sectors. The unrealized losses are distributed over several hundred companies with an impairment duration of three months
or less and a severity that is generally ten percent or less than cost. The Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2009. |
|
(B) |
|
|

Debt Securities (Government)Unrealized losses on Powers NDT investments in US Treasury obligations and Federal Agency mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate changes. Since these investments are guaranteed by the US government or an agency of the US government,
it is not expected that these securities will settle for less that their amortized cost basis, assuming the Company does not intend to sell nor will they be more likely than not required to sell. The Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30,
2009. |

The cost of these securities was determined on the basis of specific identification.
Power periodically assesses individual securities whose fair value is less than amortized cost to determine whether the investments are considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired. For equity securities, management considers the ability and intent to hold for a reasonable time to permit
recovery in addition to the severity and duration of the loss. For fixed income securities, management considers its intent to sell or requirement to sell a security prior to expected recovery. In those cases where a sale is expected, any impairment would be recorded through earnings. For fixed
income securities where there is no intent to sell or likely requirement to sell, management evaluates whether credit loss is a component of the impairment. If so, that portion is recorded through earnings while the noncredit loss component is recorded through Other Comprehensive Income (OCI).
In 2009, other-than-temporary impairments of $60 million were recognized on securities in the NDT Funds. Any subsequent recoveries in the value of these securities are recognized in OCI. The assessment of fair market value compared to cost is applied on a weighted average basis taking into
account various purchase dates and initial cost detail of the securities.

The
Rabbi Trusts are invested in commingled indexed mutual funds, in which the
shares have the characteristics of equity securities. Due to the commingled
nature of these funds, PSEG does not have the ability to hold these securities
until expected recovery. As a result, any declines in fair market value below
cost are recorded as a charge to earnings. In the first half of 2009, other-than-temporary
impairments of $1 million were recognized on the investments of the Rabbi
Trusts.

Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Guaranteed Obligations
Power has unconditionally guaranteed payments by its subsidiaries in commodity-related transactions to support current exposure, interest and other costs on sums due and payable in the ordinary course of business. These guarantees are provided to counterparties in order to obtain credit. Under
these agreements, guarantees cover lines of credit between entities and are often reciprocal in nature. The exposure between counterparties can move in either direction.
In order for Power to incur liability for the face value of the outstanding guarantees, its subsidiaries would have to fully utilize the credit granted to them by every counterparty to whom Power has provided a guarantee and all of the related contracts would have to be out-of-the-money (if the
contracts are terminated, Power would owe money to the counterparties). The probability of this is highly unlikely due to offsetting positions within the portfolio. For this reason, the current exposure at any point in time is a more meaningful representation of the potential liability under these
guarantees. This current exposure consists of the net of accounts receivable and accounts payable and the forward value on open positions, less any margins posted.
Power is subject to counterparty collateral calls related to commodity contracts and is subject to certain creditworthiness standards as guarantor under performance guarantees of its subsidiaries. Changes in commodity prices can have a material impact on margin requirements under such contracts,
which are posted and received primarily in the form of letters of credit. Power also routinely enters into futures and options transactions for electricity and natural gas as part of its operations. These futures contracts usually require a cash margin deposit with brokers, which can change based on
market movement and in accordance with exchange rules.

Power nets the fair value of cash collateral receivables and payables with the corresponding net energy contract balances. Of the net cash received, Power has included $227 million and $112 million in its corresponding net derivative contract positions as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008,
respectively. The remaining balance of net cash (received) deposited shown above is primarily included in Accounts Payable.
In the event of a deterioration of Powers credit rating to below investment grade, which would represent a two level downgrade from its current ratings, many of these agreements allow the counterparty to demand further performance assurance. As of June 30, 2009, if Power was to lose its
investment grade rating, additional collateral of approximately $1 billion could be required. As of June 30, 2009, there was $2.6 billion of available liquidity that could be used to post collateral under the PSEG and Power credit facilities. On July 24, 2009, Power entered into an additional $350
million syndicated credit facility that expires in July 2011. In addition to amounts in the table above, Power had posted $125 million and $101 million in letters of credit as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, to support various other contractual and environmental obligations.
Environmental Matters
Passaic River
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) undertook a study of the Passaic River and determined that a six-mile stretch of the river in the area of Newark, New Jersey is a facility within the meaning of that term under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA). The EPA later expanded the study area to include the entire 17-mile tidal reach of the lower Passaic River.
PSE&G and certain of its predecessors conducted operations at properties in this area on or adjacent to the river. The properties included one operating electric generating station (Essex Site), which was transferred to Power, one former generating station and four former Manufactured Gas Plant
(MGP) sites. Power assumed any environmental liabilities of the Essex Site when it was transferred from PSE&G, and PSE&G obtained releases and indemnities for liabilities arising out of the former generating station when the Essex Site was transferred. The costs associated with the MGP
Remediation Program have historically been recovered through the Societal Benefits Clause (SBC) charges to PSE&G ratepayers.
The EPA believes that hazardous substances had been released from the Essex Site and one of PSE&Gs former MGP locations (Harrison Site). In 2006, the EPA notified the potentially responsible parties (PRPs) that the cost of its study would greatly exceed the original estimated cost of $20
million. 73 PRPs,
24
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
including Power and PSE&G, agreed to assume responsibility for the study and to divide
the associated costs according to a mutually agreed-upon formula. The PRP group is presently executing the study. Approximately five percent of the study costs are attributable to PSE&Gs former MGP sites
and approximately one percent to Powers generating stations. Power has provided notice to insurers concerning this potential claim.
In 2007, the EPA released a draft Focused Feasibility Study that proposes six options to address the contamination cleanup of the lower eight miles of the Passaic River, with estimated costs from $900 million to $2.3 billion. The work contemplated by the study is not subject to the cost sharing
agreement discussed above. A revised focused feasibility study is expected to be released later in 2010.
In June, 2008, an agreement was announced between the EPA and two PRPs for removal of a portion of the contaminated sediment in the Passaic River at an estimated cost of $80 million. The two PRPs have reserved their rights to seek contribution for the removal costs from the other PRPs,
including Power and PSE&G.
NJDEP Litigation
In 2005, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) filed suit against a PRP and its related companies in the New Jersey Superior Court seeking damages and reimbursement for costs expended by the State of New Jersey to address the effects of the PRPs discharge of
hazardous substances into the Passaic River. On February 4, 2009, third-party complaints were filed against some 320 third-party defendants, including Power and PSE&G, claiming that each of the third-party defendants is responsible for its proportionate share of the clean-up costs for the hazardous
substances they allegedly discharged into the Passaic River. The third-party complaints seek statutory contribution, and contribution under the New Jersey Spill Compensation and Control Act (Spill Act), to recover past and future removal costs and damages.
Natural Resource Damage Claims
In 2003, the NJDEP directed PSEG, PSE&G and 56 other PRPs to arrange for a natural resource damage assessment and interim compensatory restoration of natural resource injuries along the lower Passaic River and its tributaries pursuant to the NJ Spill Act. The NJDEP alleged that hazardous
substances had been discharged from the Essex Site and the Harrison Site. The NJDEP estimated the cost of interim natural resource injury restoration activities along the lower Passaic River at approximately $950 million. In 2007, agencies of the United States Department of Commerce and the
United States Department of the Interior sent letters to PSE&G and other PRPs inviting participation in an assessment of injuries to natural resources that the agencies intended to perform. In November 2008, PSEG and a number of other PRPs agreed in an interim cooperative assessment agreement
to pay an aggregate of $1 million for past costs incurred by the Federal trustees, and certain costs the trustees will incur going forward, and to work with the trustees for a 12-month period to explore whether some or all of the trustees claims can be resolved in a cooperative fashion.
Newark Bay Study Area
The EPA has established the Newark Bay Study Area, which it defines as Newark Bay and portions of the Hackensack River, the Arthur Kill and the Kill Van Kull. In August 2006, the EPA sent PSEG and 11 other entities notices that it considered each of the entities to be a PRP with respect
to contamination in the Study Area. The notice letter requested that the PRPs fund an EPA-approved study in the Newark Bay Study Area and encouraged the PRPs to contact Occidental Chemical Corporation (OCC) to discuss participating in the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study that OCC
was conducting. The notice stated the EPAs belief that hazardous substances were released from sites owned by PSEG companies and located on the Hackensack River, including two operating electric generating stations (Hudson and Kearny sites) and one former MGP site. PSEG is participating
in and partially funding this study.
25
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
PSEG, Power and PSE&G cannot predict what further actions, if any, or the costs or the timing thereof, that may be required with respect to the Passaic River, the NJDEP Litigation, the Newark Bay Study Area or with respect to natural resource damages claims; however, such costs could be
material.
MGP Remediation Program
PSE&G is working with the NJDEP to assess, investigate and remediate environmental conditions at PSE&Gs former MGP sites. To date, 38 sites requiring some level of remedial action have been identified. The NJDEP has also announced initiatives to accelerate the investigation and subsequent
remediation of the riverbeds underlying surface water bodies that have been impacted by hazardous substances from adjoining sites. In 2005, the NJDEP initiated a program on the Delaware River aimed at identifying the 10 most significant sites for cleanup. One of the sites identified was PSE&Gs
former Camden Coke facility.
During the second quarter of 2009, PSE&G updated the estimated cost to remediate all MGP sites to completion and determined that the cost to completion could range between $704 million and $804 million from June 30, 2009 through 2021. Since no amount within the range was considered to
be most likely, PSE&G reflected a liability of $704 million on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2009. Of this amount, $28 million was recorded in Other Current Liabilities and $676 million was reflected as Environmental Costs in Noncurrent Liabilities. As such, PSE&G has recorded a $704 million
Regulatory Asset with respect to these costs.
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD)/New Source Review (NSR)
The PSD/NSR regulations, promulgated under the Clean Air Act, require major sources of certain air pollutants to obtain permits, install pollution control technology and obtain offsets, in some circumstances, when those sources undergo a major modification, as defined in the regulations. The
federal government may order companies that are not in compliance with the PSD/NSR regulations to install the best available control technology at the affected plants and to pay monetary penalties ranging from $25,000 to $37,500 per day for each violation, depending upon when the alleged
violation occurred.
In November 2006, Power reached an agreement with the EPA and the NJDEP to achieve emissions reductions targets at certain of Powers generating stations. Under this agreement, Power was required to undertake a number of technology projects, plant modifications and operating procedure
changes at Hudson and Mercer designed to meet targeted reductions in emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxide (NOx), particulate matter and mercury. Power has installed selective catalytic reduction equipment at Mercer at a cost of $118 million and baghouses were placed in service in
December 2008, with costs as of June 30, 2009 of $263 million. All back-end pollution control technology construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2010. The cost of assets to be placed in service in order to implement the balance of the agreement is estimated at $200 million to
$250 million for Mercer and $700 million to $750 million for Hudson, with expenditures as of June 30, 2009 of $560 million for both projects.
On January 14, 2009, the EPA issued a notice of violation to Power and the other owners of the Keystone coal-fired plant in Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, that various capital improvement projects were made at the plant which are considered modifications (or major modifications)
causing significant net emission increases of PSD/NSR air pollutants, beginning in 1985 for Keystone Unit 1 and in 1984 for Keystone Unit 2. The notice of violation states that none of these modifications underwent PSD/NSR permitting process prior to being put into service, which the EPA
alleges was required under the Clean Air Act. The notice of violation states that the EPA may issue an order requiring compliance with the relevant Clean Air Act provisions and may seek injunctive relief and/or civil penalties. Power owns approximately 23% of the plant. Power cannot predict
the outcome of this matter.

Mercury Regulation
In March 2005, the EPA established a New Source Performance Standard limit for nickel emissions from oil-fired electric generating units and a cap-and-trade program for mercury emissions from coal-fired electric generating units. In February 2008, the United States Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia Circuit issued a decision rejecting the EPAs mercury emissions program and requiring the EPA to develop standards for mercury and nickel emissions that adhere to the Maximum Available Control Technology (MACT) provisions of the Clean Air Act. Although the EPA
initially filed a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court to review the lower courts decision, in February 2009, the EPA withdrew its petition with the U.S. Supreme Court and indicated that it intended to move forward with a rule-making process to develop MACT standards consistent with the
Courts ruling. While certain industry litigants also petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to review the lower courts decision, in February 2009, the Supreme Court denied the petition. The full impact to PSEG of these developments is uncertain. It is expected that new MACT requirements will
require more stringent control than the cap-and-trade program struck down by the D.C. Circuit Court; however, the costs of compliance with mercury MACT standards will have to be compared with the existing New Jersey and Connecticut mercury-control requirements, as described below.
The estimated costs of technology believed to be capable of meeting these emissions limits at Powers coal-fired units in New Jersey and Pennsylvania have been incurred or are included in Powers capital expenditure forecast. Total estimated costs for each project are between $150 million and
$200 million.
New Jersey
New Jersey regulations required coal-fired electric generating units to meet certain emissions limits or reduce mercury emissions by approximately 90% by December 15, 2007. Companies that are parties to multi-pollutant reduction agreements, such as Power, have been permitted to postpone such
reductions on half of their coal-fired electric generating capacity until December 15, 2012.
Power achieved the reductions required in 2007 through the installation of carbon injection technology and baghouses at both Mercer units and anticipates compliance with the remaining reductions required by December 2012 through the installation of a baghouse at its Hudson plant by the end of
2010. These mercury-control technologies are part of Powers multi-pollutant reduction agreement that resolved issues arising out of the PSD/NSR air pollution control programs discussed above.
Pennsylvania
In February 2007, Pennsylvania finalized its state-specific requirements to reduce mercury emissions from coal-fired electric generating units. These requirements were more stringent than the EPAs Clean Air Mercury Rule (vacated by the court in February 2008) but not as stringent as would
be required by a MACT process as required under a strict interpretation of the Clean Air Act. In January 2009, the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania struck down the state rule, indicating that the rule violated Pennsylvania law because it is inconsistent with the Clean Air Act. The
Commonwealth Courts decision has been appealed to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. If the Commonwealth Courts decision were to be overturned and the above-mentioned requirements are upheld, the Keystone and Conemaugh generating stations would be positioned by 2010 to meet Phase
I of the Pennsylvania mercury rule by benefiting from reductions realized from the installation of planned or completed controls for compliance with SO2 and NOx reductions. Power will evaluate Phase II of the Pennsylvania mercury rule after a full evaluation of the Phase I reductions. If the
Commonwealth Courts ruling is sustained and the EPA undertakes a MACT process, it is uncertain at this time whether the Keystone and Conemaugh generating stations will be able to achieve the necessary reductions at these stations with currently planned capital projects.

(UNAUDITED)
Connecticut
Mercury emissions control standards were effective in July 2008 and require coal-fired power plants to achieve either an emissions limit or 90% mercury removal efficiency through technology installed to control mercury emissions. The recently installed activated carbon injection and baghouse on
Bridgeport Unit 3 has been demonstrated through stack testing to comply with the mercury limits in this rule.
Emission Fees
Section 185 of the Clean Air Act requires states (or in the absence of state action, the EPA), in severe and extreme non-attainment areas, to adopt a penalty fee for major stationary sources if the area fails to attain the one-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) set by the
EPA. In June 2007, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled against the EPA, which had sought to vacate imposition of fees for NOx emissions because the one hour standard was superseded by an eight-hour standard. Power operates electric generation stations, major
stationary sources, in the New Jersey-Connecticut severe non-attainment area that did not meet the required NAAQS by November 2007. Neither the EPA nor the states in the non-attainment areas in which Power operates have initiated any process for imposing fees in compliance with the court
ruling; however, preliminary analysis suggests that penalty fees could be approximately $6 million annually, which Power is currently accruing. This analysis could change if the EPA or the states issue additional guidance addressing the imposition of fees, or if Power is able to reduce its
emissions of NOx in the future.
In January 2009, the NJDEP provided notice that it is in the process of assessing fees under Section 185 for 2008 emissions. These fees are expected to be paid in 2010 after the NJDEP determines the need for statutory or regulatory changes.
NOx Reduction
New Jersey
In April 2009, the NJDEP finalized revisions to NOx emission control regulations that impose new NOx emission reduction requirements and limits for New Jersey fossil fuel-fired electric generation units. The rule is expected to have a significant impact on Powers generation fleet, including the
likely retirement of a significant portion of Powers units by April 30, 2015. The rule is expected to require the retirement of up to 102 combustion turbines (approximately 2,000 MW) and five older New Jersey steam electric generating units (approximately 800 MW). Power has been working
with the NJDEP throughout the development of this rulemaking to minimize financial impact and to provide for transitional lead time for it to address the retirement of electric generation units. Power cannot predict the financial impact resulting from compliance with this rulemaking.
Connecticut
Under current Connecticut regulations, Powers Bridgeport and New Haven facilities utilize Discrete Emission Reduction Credits (DERCs) to comply with certain NOx emission limitations that were incorporated into the facilities operating permits. Powers agreements with the State of Connecticut
authorizing the DERCs expire on May 1, 2010. If not extended, we could potentially be forced to utilize lower NOx-producing fuels, or install NOx emission controls in order to operate the units. Power can not predict the financial impact of such costs, but such costs could be material and could
impact the continued viability of these units.
New Jersey Industrial Site Recovery Act (ISRA)
Potential environmental liabilities related to the alleged discharge of hazardous substances at certain generating stations have been identified. In the second quarter of 1999, in anticipation of the transfer of PSE&Gs generation-related assets to Power, a study was conducted pursuant to ISRA, which
applied to the
28
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
sale of certain assets. Power had a $50 million liability as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, related to these obligations, which is included in Environmental Costs in Powers and PSEGs Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Permit Renewals
In June 2001, the NJDEP issued a renewed New Jersey Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NJPDES) permit for Salem, expiring in July 2006, allowing for the continued operation of Salem with its existing cooling water intake system. In February 2006, Power filed with the NJDEP a
renewal application allowing Salem to continue operating under its existing NJPDES permit until a new permit is issued.
Power prepared its renewal application in accordance with the Federal Water Pollution Control Acts (FWPCA) Section 316(b) and the Phase II 316(b) rules, which govern cooling water intake structures at large electric generating facilities. Under these rules, Power had historically used restoration
and/or a site-specific cost-benefit test in applications it had filed to renew the permits at its once-through cooled plants, including Salem, Hudson and Mercer. The Phase II Rule would also have been applicable to Bridgeport, and possibly, Sewaren and New Haven stations. In addition to the
Salem renewal application, permit renewal applications have been submitted to the NJDEP for Hudson, and to the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection for Bridgeport. A renewal application is expected to be filed for Sewaren later this year.
In January 2007, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued a decision in litigation of the Phase II 316(b) regulations brought by several environmental groups, the Attorneys General of six Northeastern states, including New Jersey, Connecticut, and New York, the Utility Water Act
Group and several of its members, including Power. In its ruling, the Court:
|
|
|
|
|
remanded major portions of the regulations and determined that Section 316(b) of the FWPCA does not support the use of restoration and the site-specific cost-benefit test and |
|
|
|
|
|
instructed the EPA to reconsider the definition of best technology available without comparing the costs of the best performing technology to its benefits.
|
On April 1, 2009, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed the Second Circuits opinion, concluding that the EPA could rely upon cost-benefit analysis in setting the national performance standards and in providing for cost-benefit variances from those standards as part of the Phase II regulations. The
Supreme Courts decision became effective on April 27, 2009 and the matter was sent back to the Second Circuit for further proceedings consistent with the Supreme Courts opinion.
It is premature to determine when the Second Circuit will act on this ruling or its ultimate disposition of the case. However, because there were major portions of the Phase II regulations which were originally remanded by the Second Circuit that were not considered by the Supreme Court, the
EPA will need to undertake a rulemaking in the future.
The Supreme Courts ruling allows the EPA to continue to use the site-specific cost-benefit test in determining best technology available for minimizing adverse environmental impact. However, the results of further proceedings on this matter could have a material impact on our ability to renew
permits at our larger once-through cooled plants, including Salem, Hudson, Mercer, Bridgeport and possibly Sewaren and New Haven, without making significant upgrades to our existing intake structures and cooling systems. The costs of those upgrades to one or more of our once-through cooled
plants could be material and would require economic review to determine whether to continue operations at these facilities. For example, in Powers application to renew its Salem permit, filed with the NJDEP in February 2006, the costs estimated for adding cooling towers for Salem are
approximately $1 billion, of which Powers share would be approximately $575 million. Currently, potential costs associated with any closed cycle cooling requirements are not included in Powers forecasted capital expenditures.

Stormwater
In October 2008, the NJDEP notified Power that it must apply for an individual stormwater discharge permit for its Hudson generating station. Hudson stores its coal in an open air pile and, as a result, it is exposed to precipitation. Discharge of stormwater from Hudson has been regulated
pursuant to a Basic Industrial Stormwater General Permit, authorization of which has been previously approved by the NJDEP. The NJDEP has now determined that Hudson is no longer eligible to utilize this general permit and must apply for an individual NJPDES permit for stormwater
discharges. While the full extent of these requirements remains unclear, to the extent Power may be required to reduce or eliminate the exposure of coal to stormwater, or be required to construct technologies preventing the discharge of stormwater to surface water or groundwater, those costs
could be material.
New Generation and Development
Nuclear
Power has approved the expenditure of $192 million for steam path retrofit and related upgrades at Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3. Completion of these upgrades is expected to result in an increase of Powers share of nominal capacity by 32 MW (14 MW at Unit 3 in 2011 and 18 MW at Unit 2
in 2012). Significant project expenditures began in July 2009 and are expected to continue through 2012.
Connecticut
Power has been selected by the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control in a regulatory process to build 130 MW of gas-fired peaking capacity. Final approval has been received and construction is expected to commence in June 2011. The project is expected to be in-service by June
2012. Power estimates the cost of these generating units to be $130 million to $140 million. Total capitalized expenditures to date are $12 million, which are included in Other Noncurrent Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets of PSEG and Power.
PJM Interconnection L.L.C. (PJM)
Power plans to construct 178 MW of gas-fired peaking capacity at the Kearny site. This capacity was bid into and has cleared the PJM Reliability Pricing Model (RPM) base residual capacity auction for the 2012-2013 period. Final approval has been received and construction is expected to
commence in the third quarter of 2011. The project is expected to be in-service by June 2012. Power estimates the cost of these generating units to be $160 million to $200 million. Total capitalized expenditures to date were $7 million which are included in Property, Plant and Equipment in
PSEGs and Powers Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Basic Generation Service (BGS) and Basic Gas Supply Service (BGSS)
PSE&G obtains its electric supply requirements for customers who do not purchase electric supply from third-party suppliers through the annual New Jersey BGS auctions. Pursuant to applicable BPU rules, PSE&G enters into the Supplier Master Agreement (SMA) with the winners of these BGS
auctions following the BPUs approval of the auction results. PSE&G has entered into contracts with Power, as well as with other winning BGS suppliers, to purchase BGS for PSE&Gs load requirements. The winners of the auction (including Power) are responsible for fulfilling all the requirements
of a PJM Interconnection L.L.C. (PJM) Load Serving Entity including the provision of capacity, energy, ancillary services, transmission and any other services required by PJM. BGS suppliers assume all volume risk and customer migration risk and must satisfy New Jerseys renewable portfolio
standards.
Power seeks to mitigate volatility in its results by contracting in advance for the sale of most of its anticipated electric output as well as its anticipated fuel needs. As part of its objective, Power has entered into contracts to directly supply PSE&G and other New Jersey electric distribution
companies (EDCs) with a portion of their respective BGS requirements through the New Jersey BGS auction process, described
30

PSE&G has a full requirements contract with Power to meet the gas supply requirements of PSE&Gs gas customers. The contract extends through March 31, 2012, and year-to-year thereafter. Power has entered into hedges for a portion of these anticipated BGSS obligations, as permitted by the
BPU. The BPU permits PSE&G to recover the cost of gas hedging up to 115 billion cubic feet or 80% of its residential gas supply annual requirements through the BGSS tariff. For additional information, see Note 15. Related-Party Transactions.
Minimum Fuel Purchase Requirements
Power has various long-term fuel purchase commitments for coal and oil to support its fossil generation stations and for supply of nuclear fuel for the Salem and Hope Creek nuclear generating stations and for firm transportation and storage capacity for natural gas.
Powers various multi-year contracts for firm transportation and storage capacity for natural gas are primarily used to meet its gas supply obligations to PSE&G. These purchase obligations are consistent with Powers strategy to enter into contracts for its fuel supply in comparable volumes to its
sales contracts.
Powers strategy is to maintain certain levels of uranium concentrates and uranium hexafluoride in inventory and to make periodic purchases to support such levels. As such, the commitments referred to below include estimated quantities to be purchased that are in excess of contractual minimum
quantities.
Powers nuclear fuel commitments cover approximately 100% of its estimated uranium, enrichment and fabrication requirements through 2011 and a portion for 2012 and 2013 at Salem, Hope Creek and Peach Bottom.
As of June 30, 2009, the total minimum purchase requirements included in these commitments are as follows:

Included in the $921 million commitment for coal and oil above is $449 million related to a certain coal contract under which Power can cancel contractual deliveries at minimal cost.
Power has entered into gas supply option agreements for the anticipated fuel requirements at the PSEG Texas, LP (PSEG Texas) generation facilities to satisfy obligations under the facilities forward energy sales contracts. As of June 30, 2009, Powers fuel purchase options totaled $40 million
under those agreements, which is not included in the above table.
PSEG Texas also has a contract for low BTU content gas commencing in late 2009 with a term of 15 years and a minimum volume of approximately 13 MMbtus per year. The gas must meet an availability and quality specification. PSEG Texas also has the right to cancel delivery of the gas at
a minimal cost.
Regulatory Proceedings
Competition Act
In April 2007, PSE&G and PSE&G Transition Funding LLC (Transition Funding) were served with a copy of a purported class action complaint (Complaint) in New Jersey Superior Court challenging the constitutional validity of certain stranded cost recovery provisions of the Competition Act,
seeking injunctive relief against continued collection from PSE&Gs electric customers of the Transition Bond Charge (TBC) of Transition Funding, as well as recovery of TBC amounts previously collected. Under New Jersey law, the Competition Act, enacted in 1999, is presumed constitutional.
In July 2007, the plaintiff filed an amended Complaint to also seek injunctive relief from continued collection of related taxes as well as recovery of such taxes previously collected. In July 2007, PSE&G filed a motion to dismiss the amended Complaint, or, in the alternative, for summary
judgment. In October 2007, PSE&Gs and Transition Fundings motion to dismiss the amended Complaint was granted. In November 2007, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal with the Appellate Division of the New Jersey Superior Court. In February 2009, the New Jersey Appellate Division
affirmed the decision of the lower court dismissing the case. On May 13, 2009 the New Jersey Supreme Court denied a request from the plaintiff to review the Appellate Divisions decision.
In July 2007, the same plaintiff also filed a petition with the BPU requesting review and adjustment to PSE&Gs recovery of the same stranded cost charges. In September 2007, PSE&G filed a motion with the BPU to dismiss the petition, which remains pending.
BPU Deferral Audit
The BPU Energy and Audit Division conducts audits of deferred balances under various adjustment clauses. A draft Deferral Audit Phase II report relating to the 12-month period ended July 31, 2003 was released by the consultant to the BPU in April 2005.
That report, which addresses SBC, Market Transition Charge (MTC) and non-utility generation (NUG) deferred balances, found that the Phase II deferral balances complied in all material respects with applicable BPU Orders. It also noted that the BPU Staff had raised certain questions with
respect to the reconciliation method PSE&G had employed in calculating the overrecovery of its MTC and other charges during the Phase I and Phase II four-year transition period. The matter was referred to the Office of Administrative Law. The amount in dispute is $114 million, which if
required to be refunded to customers with interest through June 2009, would be $141 million.
Hearings before an administrative law judge (ALJ) were held in July 2008. In January 2009, the ALJ issued a decision which upheld PSE&Gs central contention that the 2004 BPU Order approving the Phase I settlement resolved the issues being raised by the Staff and Advocate, and that these
issues should not be subject to re-litigation in respect of the first three years of the transition period. The ALJs decision stated
32
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
that the BPU could elect to convene a separate proceeding to address the fourth and final year reconciliation of MTC recoveries. The amount in dispute with respect to this Phase II period is approximately $50 million.
Exceptions to the ALJs decision were filed on February 9, 2009. The BPU may choose to accept, modify or reject the ALJs decision in reaching its final decision. On July 23, 2009, we requested oral argument before the BPU. The BPU decision is pending.
New Jersey Clean Energy Program
In the third quarter of 2008, the BPU approved funding requirements for each New Jersey utility applicable to its Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency programs for the years 2009 to 2012. The aggregate funding amount is $1.2 billion for all years. PSE&Gs share of the $1.2 billion program
is $705 million. PSE&G has recorded a discounted liability of $610 million as of June 30, 2009. Of this amount, $159 million was recorded as a current liability and $451 million as a noncurrent liability. The liability has been recorded with an offsetting Regulatory Asset, since the costs associated
with this program are expected to be recovered from PSE&G ratepayers through the SBC.
Leveraged Lease Investments
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has issued reports with respect to its audits of PSEGs federal corporate income tax returns for tax years 1997 through 2003, which disallowed all deductions associated with certain lease transactions. The IRS reports also proposed a 20% penalty for substantial
understatement of tax liability. PSEG has filed protests of these findings with the Office of Appeals of the IRS.
PSEG believes its tax position related to these transactions was proper based on applicable statutes, regulations and case law in effect at the time that the deductions were taken. There are several pending tax cases involving other taxpayers with similar leveraged lease investments. To date, four
cases have been decided at the trial court level, three of which were decided in favor of the government. An appeal of one of these decisions was affirmed. The fourth case involves a jury verdict that was challenged by both parties on inconsistency grounds but was later settled by the parties.
The IRS has also issued letters to a number of taxpayers with these types of lease transactions containing settlement offers. PSEG has analyzed potential settlements with the IRS and to date has declined to participate.
In order to reduce the cash tax exposure related to these leases, Energy Holdings is pursuing opportunities to terminate international leases with lessees that are willing to meet certain economic thresholds and where the transactions in total will result in a positive or neutral earnings and cash
impact. When a lease is terminated, taxes due associated with that lease are paid out of the termination proceeds. In the last twelve months, PSEG has terminated eight of these leasing transactions and reduced the related cash tax exposure by $350 million. As of June 30, 2009 and December 31,
2008, PSEGs total gross investment in such transactions was $672 million and $1 billion, respectively.
Cash Impact
As of June 30, 2009, an aggregate $950 million would become currently payable if PSEG conceded all deductions taken through that date. PSEG has deposited $320 million with the IRS to defray potential interest costs associated with this disputed tax liability, reducing its potential cash exposure
to $630 million. In the event PSEG is successful in defense of its position, the deposit is fully refundable with interest.
As of June 30, 2009, penalties of $150 million would also become payable if the IRS successfully asserted and litigated a case against PSEG. PSEG has not established a reserve for penalties because it believes it has strong defenses to the assertion of penalties under applicable law. Interest and
penalty exposure grow at the rate of $9 million per quarter during 2009. If the IRS is successful in a litigated case consistent with the
33
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
positions it has taken in the generic settlement offer proposed, an additional $130 million to $150 million of tax would be due for tax positions through June 30, 2009.
PSEG currently anticipates that it will pay between $120 million and $280 million in tax, interest and penalties for the tax years 1997-2000 during the second half of 2009 and subsequently commence litigation to recover these amounts. Further it is possible that an additional payment of between
$220 million and $500 million could be required in late 2009 for tax years 2001-2003 followed by further litigation to recover those taxes. These amounts are in addition to tax deposits already made.
Earnings Impact
As a result of the changes in the timing of projected cash flows related to these leases, in the second quarter of 2008, PSEG recalculated its lease transactions and recorded an after-tax charge of $355 million. This charge was reflected as a reduction in Operating Revenues of $485 million with a
partially offsetting reduction in Income Tax Expense of $130 million. This represents PSEGs view of most of the earnings impact related to these transactions, although a total loss, consistent with the broad settlement offer proposed by the IRS, would result in an additional earnings charge of
$100 million to $120 million.

Note 8. Financial Risk Management Activities
The operations of PSEG, Power and PSE&G are exposed to market risks from changes in commodity prices, interest rates and equity prices that could affect their results of operations and financial condition. Exposure to these risks is managed through normal operating and financing activities and,
when appropriate, through hedging transactions. Hedging transactions use derivative instruments to create a relationship in which changes to the value of the assets, liabilities or anticipated transactions exposed to market risks are expected to be offset by changes in the value of these derivative
instruments.
Commodity Prices
The availability and price of energy commodities are subject to fluctuations due to weather, environmental policies, changes in supply and demand, state and federal regulatory policies, market conditions, transmission availability and other events.
Power and Energy Holdings use physical and financial transactions in the wholesale energy markets to mitigate the effects of adverse movements in fuel and electricity prices. Contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting are marked to market in accordance with SFAS 133, with changes in
fair value recorded in the income statement. The fair value for the majority of these contracts is obtained from quoted market sources. Modeling techniques using assumptions reflective of current market rates, yield curves and forward prices are used to interpolate certain prices when no quoted
market exists. The financial effect of using such modeling techniques is not material to PSEGs or Powers financial statements.
Cash Flow Hedges
Power uses forward sale and purchase contracts, swaps, futures and firm transmission right contracts to hedge:
|
|
|
|
|
forecasted energy sales from its generation stations and the related load obligations and |
|
|
|
|
|
the price of fuel to meet its fuel purchase requirements.
|
Energy Holdings uses forward sale and purchase contracts and swaps to hedge:
|
|
|
|
|
forecasted energy sales from its Texas generation stations and |
|
|
|
|
|
the price of fuel for one of the Texas generation facilities.

The expiration date of the longest-dated cash flow hedge at Power is in 2011. Powers after-tax unrealized gains on these derivatives that are expected to be reclassified to earnings during the 12 months ending June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2011 are $185 million and $87 million, respectively.
Ineffectiveness associated with these hedges, as defined in SFAS 133, was $14 million at June 30, 2009.
The expiration date of the longest-dated cash flow hedge for Energy Holdings is in 2009. Therefore, substantially all of the after-tax unrealized gains on its commodity derivatives are expected to be reclassified to earnings during 2009. There was no ineffectiveness associated with these hedges.
Trading Derivatives
In general, the main purpose of Powers wholesale marketing operation is to optimize the value of the output of the generating facilities via various products and services available in the markets we serve. Power does engage in some trading of electricity and energy-related products where such
transactions are not associated with the output or fuel purchase requirements of our facilities. This trading consists mostly of energy supply contracts where we secure sales commitments with the intent to supply the energy services from purchases in the market rather than from our owned
generation. Such trading activities represent less than one percent of Powers revenues.
Other Derivatives
Power and Energy Holdings enter into other contracts that are derivatives, but do not qualify for cash flow hedge accounting.
For Power, most of these contracts are used for fuel purchases for generation requirements and for electricity purchases for contractual sales obligations. Prior to June 2009, some of the derivative contracts were also used in Powers NDT Funds.
For Energy Holdings, these are electricity forward and capacity sale contracts entered into to sell a portion of the Texas facilities capacity and gas purchase contracts to support the electricity forward sales contracts.

Interest Rates
PSEG, Power and PSE&G are subject to the risk of fluctuating interest rates in the normal course of business. Exposure to this risk is managed through the use of fixed and floating rate debt and interest rate derivatives.
Fair Value Hedges
In May and June 2009, we entered into three interest rate swaps to convert Powers $250 million of 5.00% Senior Notes due April 2014 and $300 million of 5.50% Senior Notes due December 2015 into variable-rate debt. These interest rate swaps are designated and effective as fair value hedges.
The fair value changes of the interest rate swaps are fully offset by the fair value changes in the underlying debt. As of June 30, 2009, the fair value of the underlying hedges was $(6) million.
Cash Flow Hedges
PSE&G and Energy Holdings use interest rate swaps and other derivatives, which are designated and effective as cash flow hedges to manage their exposure to the variability of cash flows, primarily related to variable-rate debt instruments. As of June 30, 2009, there was no hedge ineffectiveness
associated with these hedges. The total fair value of these interest rate derivatives was $(1) million and $(7) million as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss related to interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges was $(3)
million and $(6) million as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

Powers derivative contracts reflected in the preceding tables include contracts to hedge the purchase and sale of electricity and the purchase of fuel. Not all of these contracts qualify for hedge accounting. Most of those contracts are marked-to-market in accordance with SFAS 133. The tables
above do not include contracts for which Power has elected the normal purchase/normal sales exemption under SFAS 133, such as its BGS contracts and certain other loadtype contracts that it has with other utilities and companies with retail load.
The following reflects the gross volume, on an absolute value basis, of derivatives as of June 30, 2009:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 9. Fair Value Measurements
Effective January 1, 2008, PSEG, Power and PSE&G adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), except for non-financial assets and liabilities as described in FSP FAS 157-2. PSEG, Power and PSE&G adopted SFAS 157 for non-financial assets and liabilities on January 1,
2009. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. SFAS 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from independent sources and those based on an entitys own
assumptions. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurement into three levels:
Level 1measurements utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that PSEG, Power and PSE&G have the ability to access. These consist primarily of listed equity securities, exchange traded derivatives and certain U.S. government treasury securities.
Level 2measurements include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and other observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
These consist primarily of non-exchange traded derivatives such as forward contracts or options and most fixed income securities.
Level 3measurements use unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities, based on the best information available and might include an entitys own data and assumptions. In some valuations, the inputs used may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In these cases, the financial instruments level
within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. These consist mainly of various financial transmission rights, other longer term capacity and transportation contracts and certain commingled securities.
In addition to establishing a measurement framework, SFAS 157 nullifies the guidance of EITF 02-3, Issues Involved in Accounting for Derivative Contracts Held for Trading Purposes and Contracts Involved in Energy Trading and Risk Management Activities, which did not allow an entity to
recognize an unrealized gain or loss at the inception of a derivative instrument unless the fair value of that instrument was obtained from a quoted market price in an active market or was otherwise evidenced by comparison to other observable current market transactions or based on a valuation
technique incorporating observable market data.

The amounts shown in energy-related contract assets and liabilities in the table above have been corrected from such
amounts shown in our 2008 Form 10-K to reflect a $22 million increase in the Level 2 net liability and a corresponding
increase in the Level 3 net asset. |
|
(A) |
|
|
|
Whenever possible, fair values for energy-related
contracts are obtained from quoted market sources in active markets. When this pricing is unavailable, contracts are valued using broker
or dealer quotes or auction prices (primarily Level 2). |
|
|
|
|
|
For energy-related contracts, which include more complex agreements where limited observable inputs or pricing information is available, modeling techniques are employed using assumptions |

|
|
|
reflective of contractual terms, current market rates, forward price curves, discount rates and risk factors, as applicable (primarily Level 3). |
|
(B) |
|
|
|
Interest rate swaps are valued using quoted prices on commonly quoted intervals, which are interpolated for periods different than the quoted intervals, as inputs to a market valuation model. Market inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant
management judgment. |
|
(C) |
|
|
|
The NDT Funds maintain investments in various equity and fixed income securities classified as available for sale. These securities are valued using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. All fair value
measurements for the fund securities are provided by the trustees of these funds. Most equity securities are priced utilizing the principal market close price or in some cases midpoint, bid or ask price (primarily Level 1). Fixed income securities are priced using an evaluated pricing
approach or the most recent exchange or quoted bid (primarily Level 2). Short-term investments are valued based upon internal matrices using observable market prices or market parameters such as time-to-maturity, coupon rate, quality rating and current yield (primarily Level 2). Certain
commingled cash equivalents included in temporary investment funds are measured with significant unobservable inputs and internal assumptions (primarily Level 3). The Rabbi Trust mutual funds are mainly invested in a US Bond Index fund, an S&P 500 Index fund and a commingled
temporary investment fund. The equity index fund is valued based on quoted prices in an active market (Level 1) while the bond index fund is valued using recent exchange prices or a quoted bid (Level 2). |
|
(D) |
|
|
|
Other long-term investments consist of equity securities and are valued using a market based approach based on quoted market prices. |
|
(E) |
|
|
|
Cash collateral netting represents collateral amounts netted against derivative assets and liabilities as permitted under FIN 39-1.

(A) |
|
|
|
PSEGs gains and losses are mainly attributable to changes in derivative assets and liabilities of which $(35) million is included in Operating Revenues and $(9) million is included in OCI. Of the $(35) million in Operating Revenues, $(12) million unrealized is at PSEG Texas and $(23)
million unrealized is at Power. The $(9) million included in OCI is at Power. |
|
(B) |
|
|
|
Mainly includes losses on PSE&Gs derivative contracts that are not included in either earnings or OCI, as they are deferred as a Regulatory Asset and are expected to be recovered from PSE&Gs customers. |
|
(C) |
|
|
|
PSEGs gains and losses are mainly attributable to changes in derivative assets and liabilities of which $65 million is included in Operating Revenues and $19 million is included in OCI. Of the $65 million in Operating Revenues, $(7) million unrealized is at PSEG Texas and $72 million,
including $58 million unrealized, is at Power. The $19 million included in Other Comprehensive Income is at Power.
|
As of June 30, 2009, PSEG carried approximately $1.2 billion of net assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, of which approximately $200 million were measured using unobservable inputs and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. These Level 3 net assets
represent less than 1% of PSEGs total assets.

As of June 30, 2008, PSEG carried approximately $653 million of net assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, of which approximately $47 million were measured using unobservable inputs and classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. These Level 3 net assets
represent less than 1% of PSEGs total assets and there were no significant transfers in or out of Level 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2008.
As discussed in Note 3, Energy Holdings sold a 10.1% interest in its GWF Energy investment and recorded an after-tax impairment charge of $3 million on the entire investment prior to the sale. The remaining investment of $63 million is carried as a nonrecurring fair value measurement as of
June 30, 2009. In accordance with SFAS 157, the investment is considered a Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy based on the use of unobservable inputs.
Fair Value of Debt
The estimated fair values were determined using the market quotations or values of instruments with similar terms, credit ratings, remaining maturities and redemptions as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Note 11. Income Taxes
PSEGs effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was 43.6% as compared to 41.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, excluding the tax effect of a $490 million, after tax, charge taken in the second quarter of 2008 related to leveraged lease transactions. The increase in the
effective tax rate was due primarily to the sale of leveraged lease assets in 2009. This was offset by tax benefits from reductions of reserves for uncertain tax positions in 2009.
PSEGs effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was 41.9% as compared to 37.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, excluding the tax effect of a $490 million, after tax, charge taken in the second quarter of 2008 related to leveraged lease transactions. The increase in the
effective tax rate was due primarily to the sale of leveraged lease assets in 2009 and the absence of tax benefits, accrued in 2008, applicable to an IRS refund claim. This was offset by tax benefits from reductions of reserves for uncertain tax positions in 2009 and benefits of a manufacturing
deduction under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
Powers effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was 39.1% as compared to 40.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in the effective tax rate was due primarily to tax benefits from reductions of reserves for uncertain tax positions and increased benefits of a
manufacturing deduction under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 offset by higher earnings in the NDT Fund.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Powers effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was 39.2% as compared to 40.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in the effective tax rate was due primarily to tax benefits from reductions of reserves for uncertain tax positions and increased benefits of a
manufacturing deduction under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.
PSE&Gs effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 was 39.7% as compared to 35.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The increase in the effective tax rate was due primarily to the absence of tax benefits, accrued in 2008, applicable to an IRS refund claim.
PSE&Gs effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was 40.4% as compared to 33.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The increase in the effective tax rate was due primarily to the absence of tax benefits, accrued in 2008, applicable to an IRS refund claim.
PSEG and PSE&G have $1.155 billion and $28 million, respectively of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2009. On December 17, 2007, September 15, 2008 and June 26, 2009 PSEG made tax deposits with the IRS in the amount of $100 million, $80 million and $140 million, respectively,
to defray interest costs associated with disputed tax assessments associated with certain lease investments (see Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities). The $320 million of deposits are fully refundable and are recorded as a reduction to the Long-Term Accrued Taxes in PSEGs
Consolidated Balance Sheets, but are not reflected in the $1.155 billion amount shown above. PSEG and PSE&G are no longer subject to examination for New Jersey Corporate Business Tax for years 2000 to 2004. During 2009, PSEG materially reduced its unrecognized tax benefits by terminating
several leases involved in the IRS lease issue. (see Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities)
It is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits associated with the leasing tax issue discussed in Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities will change significantly. This change could be triggered by a settlement with the IRS or developments in other litigated cases. Based upon
these developments, unrecognized tax benefits could increase by as much as $350 million or decrease by as much as $946 million. It is not possible to predict the magnitude, timing or direction of any such change.
It is reasonably possible that the total unrecognized tax benefits (including interest) at PSEG will decrease by approximately $73 million within the next 12 months due to either agreement with various taxing authorities upon audit or the expiration of the Statute of Limitations. This amount
includes a $5 million increase for Power, a $32 million increase for PSE&G, a $25 million decrease for Services, a $90 million decrease for Energy Holdings and a $5 million increase for PSEG.

Note 13. Earnings Per Share (EPS)
PSEG
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Net Income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, including shares issuable upon exercise of stock options outstanding or vesting of restricted stock awards granted under our stock compensation plans and upon payment of
performance units or restricted stock units. The following table shows the effect of these stock options, restricted stock awards, performance units and restricted stock units on the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in calculating diluted EPS:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (MD&A)
This combined MD&A is separately filed by PSEG, Power and PSE&G. Information contained herein relating to any individual company is filed by such company on its own behalf. Power and PSE&G each make representations only as to itself and make no representations whatsoever as to any other
company.
PSEGs business consists of three reportable segments, which are:
|
|
|
|
|
Power, our wholesale energy supply company that integrates its generating asset operations with its wholesale energy, fuel supply, energy trading and marketing and risk management activities primarily in the Northeast and Mid Atlantic U.S., |
|
|
|
|
|
PSE&G, which provides transmission and distribution of electricity and gas in New Jersey, and |
|
|
|
|
|
Energy Holdings, which owns our other generation assets and holds other energy-related investments.
|
OVERVIEW OF 2009 AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
Our business discussion in Part I Item 1 Business of our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K provides a review of the regions and markets where we operate and compete, as well as our strategy for conducting our businesses within these markets, focusing on operational excellence, financial
strength and making disciplined investments. The following discussion supplements that discussion and the discussion included in the Overview of 2008 and Future Outlook provided in Item 7 in our Form 10-K by describing significant events and business developments that have occurred during
2009 and any changes to the key factors that we expect will drive our future performance. The following discussion refers to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Statements) and the Related Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Notes). This information should be
read in conjunction with such Statements, Notes and the 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Operational Excellence
Our generating assets continued to perform with strong operations in the first half of 2009. Our nuclear generation output for the first six months of 2009 was higher than in the comparable period in 2008. While our fossil fleet also continued to perform well, fossil generation volumes were
approximately 25% lower than in the comparable period in 2008. The volumes were negatively impacted by reduced demand due to cooler weather and the general economic slowdown. The largest reduction in volume was at our coal units due to higher-priced coal in 2009 than in 2008.
For the first half of 2009, our hedging strategy has resulted in higher average realized electric prices than a year ago, which helped to mitigate the effect of our reduced generation resulting from recent mild weather and recessionary conditions. The increase in realized prices was due to
comparably higher-priced contracts entered into in prior years that replaced older, lower-priced contracts, such as the 2005 and 2006 Basic Generation Service (BGS) auction contracts which expired in May 2008 and May 2009. Looking forward, the lower market prices being experienced currently
could create a less attractive environment for Power to contract for the future sale of its anticipated generation output.
We continue to receive strong pricing for our capacity. As a result of the most recent Reliability Pricing Model (RPM) auction for the 2012-2013 period, the prices set for our generation assets in PJM were $185.00 per MW-day in PSEG-North, $139.73 per MW-day in Eastern Mid-Atlantic Area
Corridor (MAAC) and $133.37 per MW-day in MAAC. These prices compared favorably with the $110.00 per MW-day set for each of these regions for the 2011-2012 period. PJM has accepted our proposal for 178 MW of new capacity to be added for the 2012-2013 period.
Our distribution operations experienced a 5.6% increase in total gas delivery volumes and 3.7% decline in total electric delivery volumes in the first half of 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008 as a result of weather impacts and the current economic conditions. In the first half of 2009,
winter weather, as
60
measured by heating degree days was 7% higher resulting in higher gas space heating demand and sales. Summer weather, as measured by the temperature-humidity index, however, was 41% cooler than normal, reducing cooling loads and, as a result, electric demand. Excluding the impact of
weather, residential electric and gas volumes were down 1.1% and 0.4%, respectively. These declines were in line with our expectations for the impact of the economy on sales to this sector. Residential sales contribute approximately 45% of our electric margin and 75% of our gas margin. In the
Commercial and Industrial segments, billings to electric customers are not based on total energy consumption as measured by kilowatt-hours. They are based on fixed, monthly demand charges that are set by the highest electric demand for an hour period during the previous 12-month period or, in
the case of some electric rates, by the peak demand during the current month. Commercial and Industrial gas customers also have a significant fixed component to billings. Therefore, any changes in energy usage over comparative periods may not have an equivalent impact on sales margin.
On May 29, 2009, we filed a Petition with the BPU for an increase in electric and gas distribution base rates. The amounts requested were $134 million and $97 million for electric and gas respectively. We expect this matter to be resolved during the first half of 2010.
During 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, we undertook a project to update our customer service system. In April 2009, our customer service system was fully integrated into our utility operations.
During the first six months there were also two significant regulatory developments that we believe have the potential to positively impact future operations.
|
|
|
|
|
In March 2009, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued an order regarding PJMs RPM. The effect of this order includes an increase in the cost of new entry value to more accurately reflect construction and equipment costs. This should incent both new build and
continued operation of existing facilities. For additional information, see Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings. |
|
|
|
|
|
On April 1, 2009, the U.S. Supreme Court concluded that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) permissibly relied upon cost-benefit analysis in setting the national performance standards and in providing for cost-benefit variances from those standards as part of the Phase II
Section 316(b) regulations of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. This is important to us in that it allows the EPA to continue to use the site-specific cost-benefit test in determining best technology available for minimizing adverse environmental impact. For additional information, see
Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities.
|
There continue to be significant developments addressing the need to promote clean and renewable energy, energy efficiency and the reduction of greenhouse gases which may impact our operations in the future as new rules and regulations are adopted.
|
|
|
|
|
In April 2009 the EPA released a proposed finding under the Clean Air Act concluding that CO2 is one type of six specific greenhouse gases which cause or contribute to the climate change problem and constitute air pollution which endangers both public health and welfare. If applied to
fossil fuel generation facilities, additional regulation of CO2 emissions could impact our operations, our ability to renew permits and licenses and could result in additional material compliance costs. |
|
|
|
|
|
In June 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that promotes renewable energy and requires a reduction in the emission of greenhouse gases from the majority of emission sources, including the generation sector. The bill sets forth major initiatives which include: 1)
establishing a national renewable energy standard, and 2) creating a market mechanism for the sale and purchase of greenhouse gas emission allowances (cap-and-trade program). The bill could reduce or eliminate existing regional inconsistencies in greenhouse gas regulations. The Senate is
expected to consider these issues as well as transmission planning, siting and cost allocation issues in the fourth quarter, but ultimate enactment into law of a bill with comparable provisions and rules is not certain.

Financial Strength
In 2009, we have continued to focus on managing costs while maintaining our safety and reliability standards and believe that our financial position remains strong.
Our businesses continued to generate strong cash from operations in the first six months of 2009. In addition, Power established a program for the issuance of up to $500 million of unsecured medium-term notes (MTNs) to retail investors in January and, to date, has issued $209 million under this
program. We used these funds, cash from operations, and cash on hand to:
|
|
|
|
|
contribute $364 million into our pension plans in 2009, |
|
|
|
|
|
pay $250 million of Powers 3.75% Senior Notes at maturity, |
|
|
|
|
|
pay $60 million of PSE&Gs 8.10% and 8.16% MTNs at maturity, |
|
|
|
|
|
make an additional $140 million deposit with the IRS to defray potential interest costs associated with the disputed tax liability for the leveraged lease investments, |
|
|
|
|
|
redeem $280 million of non-recourse debt at our Texas plants at the end of February, and |
|
|
|
|
|
repurchase $10 million of Energy Holdings remaining Senior Notes.
|
The Board of Directors has also approved an increase in the quarterly dividends from $0.3225 per share to $0.3325 per share of Common Stock for each of the first three quarters of 2009 resulting in an indicated annual dividend of $1.33 per share. This increase is consistent with maintaining our
target payout ratio of 40% to 50% of Operating Earnings.
In addition, in order to reduce the cash tax exposure related to certain lease transactions, Energy Holdings is pursuing opportunities to terminate international leases with lessees that are willing to meet certain economic thresholds and where the transactions in total will result in a positive or
neutral earnings and cash impact. Proceeds from these terminations are being used to reduce Energy Holdings tax exposure related to these investments. See Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities for additional information.
Disciplined Investment
During 2009, we expect to continue to pursue investments focusing on areas that complement our existing businesses and provide prudent growth opportunities. These areas include responding to climate change and continuing to improve environmental performance, upgrading critical energy
infrastructure and providing new energy supplies. During 2009:
|
|
|
|
|
We were assigned construction and operating responsibility for an additional 500 kV transmission project in New Jersey. The project would run from Branchburg to Hudson. The project is still in the design phase. |
|
|
|
|
|
We are continuing to pursue obtaining all necessary regulatory approvals for the $750 million Susquehanna-Roseland transmission project. The New Jersey Highlands Council has provided a favorable applicability determination. A decision by the New Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection is now pending. A decision from the BPU is expected by the end of 2009. |
|
|
|
|
|
We requested approval from the BPU for a new solar loan program, called Solar Loan II. Under Solar Loan II, we would help finance the installation of an additional 40 MW of solar-powered generating systems in our electric service territory. Any remaining financing capacity from our
current solar loan program would be rolled into this new program. |
|
|
|
|
|
The BPU approved our Solar 4 All Program. Under this program, we anticipate investing approximately $515 million of capital, and $22 million for operations and maintenance, to develop 80 MW of utility-owned solar photovoltaic systems over a four-year horizon. |
|
|
|
|
|
The BPU approved our Capital Economic Stimulus
Program. Under this program, we anticipate accelerating $694 million of capital infrastructure investments and |
62
|
|
|
|
maintenance, through our distribution and transmission business for electric and gas programs in New Jersey
over a 24-month period. The goal of the program is to help improve New Jerseys economy through the creation of new jobs,
while enhancing distribution and transmission business
infrastructure. |
|
|
|
|
|
The BPU issued an Order approving our Energy Efficiency Economic Stimulus Program. Under this program, we anticipate investing approximately $166 million of capital, and $24 million in operations and maintenance, in energy efficiency expenditures through PSE&G for electric and gas
programs in New Jersey over an 18 month period. Goals of the program are to help New Jersey meet its Energy Master Plan goal of reducing energy consumption by 20% by 2020 and to help
improve New Jerseys economy through the creation of new jobs. |
|
|
|
|

We have approved the expenditure of $192 million
for steam path retrofit and related upgrades at Peach Bottom Units 2 and 3. Completion of these upgrades is expected to result in an
increase of Powers share of nominal capacity by 32 MW (14 MW at Unit 3 in 2011 and 18 MW at
Unit 2 in 2012). Significant project expenditures began in July 2009 and are expected to continue through 2012.
We anticipate expenditures in pursuit of additional output through an extended power up-rate of our co-owned Peach Bottom nuclear plants. The up-rate is
expected to be in service in 2015 for unit 2 and 2016 for unit 3. Powers share of the increased capacity is expected to be
133 MW with an anticipated cost of approximately $400 million. |
|
|
|
|
|
We plan to construct 178 MW of gas-fired peaking capacity at Powers Kearny site. This capacity was bid into and has cleared the PJM RPM base residual capacity auction for the 2012-2013 period. Final approval has been received and construction is expected to commence in the third
quarter of 2011. The project is expected to be in-service by June 2012. We estimate the cost of these generating units to be $160 million to $200 million. Total capitalized expenditures to date were $7 million which are included in Other Noncurrent Assets in Powers and PSEGs
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
|
There is no guarantee that these or future initiatives will be achieved since many issues need to be favorably resolved, such as system conditions, regulatory approvals and funding of construction or development costs.
We receive immediate recovery of our transmission investments and costs through our FERC approved formula transmission rate. The formula rate mechanism provides for an annual setting of our transmission rates as well an annual true up to ensure that there is no over-recovery or under-
recovery of the actual costs of providing transmission service or in PSE&Gs approved return on equity. We have similar recovery mechanisms in place, which have been approved by the BPU, for certain utility programs including our Capital Economic Stimulus Program, Solar 4 All Program,
Solar Loan Programs and the energy efficiency and demand response programs.

Both the quarter-over-quarter and six-month over six month increases in our Income from Continuing Operations reflect the following large drivers:
|
|
|
|
|
the absence of a charge taken in June 2008 related to IRS disallowance of deductions taken in prior years associated with certain types of leveraged lease transactions, and |
|
|
|
|
|
improved earnings at Power due to lower generation costs and higher contract pricing, |
|
|
|
|
|
offset partially by lower sales volumes due to milder weather in the second quarter and economic conditions, and |
|
|
|
|
|
the absence of tax benefits taken in 2008 at PSE&G and Energy Holdings related to an IRS refund claim and other tax items.

For the three months ended June 30, 2009, the primary reasons for the $17 million increase in Income from Continuing Operations were:
|
|
|
|
|
lower net losses on investments in the Nuclear Decommissioning Trust (NDT) Funds and lower maintenance costs, |
|
|
|
|
|
offset partially by lower sales volumes on generation and BGS contracts mitigated by lower generation costs, and |
|
|
|
|
|
reduced sales volumes under the Basic Gas Supply Service (BGSS) contract mitigated by lower gas costs, and lower trading gains.
|
Included is the recognition of non-trading MTM gains of $2 million, after-tax, in 2009 as compared to $27 million in 2008.
65
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the primary reasons for the $60 million increase in Income from Continuing Operations were:
|
|
|
|
|
lower generation costs offset lower sales volumes and prices on generation, and |
|
|
|
|
|
slightly improved margins on higher sales volumes at lower inventory costs under the BGSS contract, |
|
|
|
|
|
offset partially by higher maintenance costs for planned outage work and higher depreciation due to additional assets having been placed in service.
|
Included is the recognition of non-trading MTM losses of $16 million, after-tax, in 2009 as compared to $30 million of after-tax MTM gains in 2008.
The quarter and year-to-date details for these variances are discussed below:

For the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 2008
Operating Revenues decreased $322 million due to:
|
|
|
|
|
Generation revenues decreased $167 million due to
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
lower revenues of $148 million resulting from lower volumes of generation being sold at lower prices, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
a net decrease of $26 million due to a lower volume of BGS contracts mitigated slightly by higher prices, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
offset partially by higher revenues of $14 million due to several new wholesale contracts that were entered into in late 2008 and early 2009.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gas Supply revenues decreased $138 million
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
including a net decrease of $110 million resulting from sales under the BGSS contract, comprised of $132 million from lower average gas prices in 2009, offset partially by $18 million of gains on financial hedging transactions, and by higher sales volumes of $4 million, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
a net decrease of $28 million due to lower prices offset partially by increased sales volume to third party customers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Trading revenues decreased $17 million due primarily to losses on gas contracts, partly offset by gains on electric-related contracts.
|
66
Operating Expenses
|
|
|
|
|
Energy Costs represent the cost of generation, which includes fuel purchases for generation as well as purchased energy in the market, and gas purchases to meet Powers obligation under its BGSS contract with PSE&G. Energy Costs decreased by $304 million due to:
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
Generation costs decreased by $167 million due to $315 million of lower fuel costs, primarily reflecting lower average natural gas prices and lower volumes of natural gas and coal purchases, partly offset by net losses of $101 million from financial hedging transactions, $23
million of increased congestion charges, and $23 million for increased power purchases. |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
Gas costs decreased $137 million, reflecting net decreases of $109 million and $28 million related to Powers obligations under the BGSS contract and sales to third party customers, respectively, reflecting lower inventory costs offset partially by higher volumes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Operation and Maintenance decreased $4 million due primarily to
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
a net decrease of $37 million due to 2008 planned maintenance costs at our fossil stations, primarily Hudson, and Mercer and Linden, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
offset partially by an increase of $33 million related primarily to Peach Bottom and Hope Creek planned outage costs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Depreciation and Amortization increased $7 million due to
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $4 million due to pollution control equipment being placed into service in December 2008 at our Mercer 1 and 2 generating facilities and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $3 million resulting from larger depreciable asset bases in 2009 at both Fossil and Nuclear.
|
Other Income and Deductions increased $4 million due to
|
|
|
|
|
a net decrease in losses of $11 million on the NDT Fund securities, |
|
|
|
|
|
offset partially by a decrease of $7 million in interest, dividends and gains on NDT Fund derivative instruments.
|
Other Than Temporary Impairments decreased $32 million due to the absence of charges related to the NDT Fund securities in 2009 as compared to $32 million recorded in 2008 (See Note 2. Recent Accounting Standards, for additional information).

For the six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 2008
Operating Revenues decreased $323 million due to:
|
|
|
|
|
Generation revenues decreased $109 million due to
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
lower revenues of $186 million resulting from lower volumes of generation being sold at lower prices, and lower capacity payments of $19 million, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
offset partially by a net increase of $62 million from higher prices on a higher volume of BGS contracts modestly offset by the expiration of several contracts in May 2008, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
also offset by higher revenues of $35 million due to several new wholesale contracts that were entered into in late 2008 and early 2009.
|
67
|
|
|
|
|
Gas Supply revenues decreased $213 million
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
including a net decrease of $118 million resulting from sales under the BGSS contract, comprised of $158 million from lower average gas prices in 2009 net of gains on financial hedging transactions, partly offset by higher sales volumes of $40 million due to colder winter
temperatures in 2009, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
a net decrease of $95 million due to lower prices on a reduced sales volume to third party customers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Trading revenues decreased $1 million due primarily to losses on gas contracts, partly offset by gains on electric-related contracts.
|
Operating Expenses
|
|
|
|
|
Energy Costs represent the cost of generation, which includes fuel purchases for generation as well as purchased energy in the market, and gas purchases to meet Powers obligation under its BGSS contract with PSE&G. Energy Costs decreased by $431 million due to:
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
Generation costs decreased by $206 million due to $417 million of lower fuel costs, primarily reflecting lower average natural gas prices and lower volumes of natural gas and coal purchases, partly offset by net losses of $154 million from financial hedging transactions, $17
million for CO2 allowances, $15 million for increased power purchases and $12 million for congestion charges. |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
Gas costs decreased $225 million, reflecting net decreases of $122 million and $103 million related to Powers obligations under the BGSS contract and sales to third party customers, respectively, reflecting lower inventory costs offset partially by higher volumes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Operation and Maintenance increased $15 million due primarily to
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $41 million related primarily to a planned outage at Hope Creek, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $12 million related to planned maintenance at Keystone, Bergen and BEC, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
offset partially by a net decrease of $39 million due to 2008 planned maintenance costs at our fossil stations, primarily Hudson and Mercer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Depreciation and Amortization increased $16 million due to
|
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $9 million due to pollution control equipment being placed into service in December 2008 at our Mercer 1 and 2 generating facilities, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $7 million resulting from larger depreciable asset bases in 2009 at both Fossil and Nuclear.
|
Other Income and Deductions decreased $9 million due to
|
¡ |
|
|
|
a decrease of $22 million in interest, dividends and gains on NDT Fund derivative instruments, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
a $5 million write-off of obsolete pollution-control equipment, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
offset partially by a net decrease in losses of $18 million on the NDT Fund securities.
|
Other Than Temporary Impairments decreased $10 million due to the lower charges in 2009 related to the NDT Fund securities (See Note 2. Recent Accounting Standards, for additional information)
Interest Expense experienced no material change.
Income Tax Expense increased $19 million in 2009 due primarily to
|
|
|
|
|
an increase of $30 million due to higher pre-tax income and $1 million due to higher earnings from the NDT Funds, |
|
|
|
|
|
offset partially by $8 million from the reduction of the reserve for uncertain tax positions, and |
|
|
|
|
|
also offset by $4 million due to increased benefits from a manufacturing deduction under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009, the primary reasons for the decreases in Income from Continuing Operations were:
|
|
|
|
|
higher taxes as a result of tax benefits recorded in 2008 related to an IRS refund claim and other tax items, |
|
|
|
|
|
lower electric margins due to unfavorable weather in the second quarter, and |
|
|
|
|
|
increased Operation and Maintenance expense and depreciation, offset by |
|
|
|
|
|
higher gas margin revenues due to favorable weather in the first quarter, and |
|
|
|
|
|
a Transmission formula rate increase.

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009, the primary reasons for the increase in Income from Continuing Operations were:
|
|
|
|
|
the absence of a charge taken in June 2008, related to IRS disallowance of deductions taken in prior years associated with certain types of leveraged lease transactions, and |
|
|
|
|
|
higher gains on sales and terminations of leveraged lease assets and other investments, |
|
|
|
|
|
offset partially by lower leveraged lease revenues due primarily to the sale of leveraged lease assets and the tax reserve taken in mid-2008, |
|
|
|
|
|
lower tax benefits as a result of the absence of benefits recorded in 2008 related to an IRS refund claim, and |
|
|
|
|
|
lower generation revenues.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The following discussion of our liquidity and capital resources is on a consolidated basis, noting the uses and contributions, where material, of our three direct operating subsidiaries.
Operating Cash Flows
Our operating cash flows combined with cash on hand and financing activities are expected to be sufficient to fund capital expenditures and shareholder dividend payments.
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, our operating cash flow increased by $166 million as compared to the same period in 2008. The net change was due primarily to net changes from our subsidiaries as discussed below.
Power
Powers operating cash flow increased $734 million from $466 million to $1.2 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to the same period in 2008, primarily resulting from
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $429 million in net cash collateral receipts, and
|
73
|
¡ |
|
|
|
an increase of $350 million from net collections of counterparty receivables, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
offset partially by $110 million in increased pension fund contributions in 2009.
|
PSE&G
PSE&Gs operating cash flow decreased $377 million from $282 million to $(95) million for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to the same period in 2008, due primarily to
|
¡ |
|
|
|
$227 million in increased pension fund contributions, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
$184 million in lower cash collateral held by PSE&G, primarily under BGS contracts due to a decline in forward prices, and |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
$44 million in higher prepaid state sales taxes, |
|
¡ |
|
|
|
offset by $74 million in higher recovery of deferred energy costs.
|
Energy Holdings
Energy Holdings operating cash flow decreased $166 million from $(119) million to $(285) for the six months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to the same period in 2008. The decrease was mainly attributable to a $140 million tax deposit made with the IRS in the second quarter of 2009, and
other tax payments related to the termination of leveraged lease investments, offset partially by tax payments in 2008 related to the sales of certain equity method investments.
Short-Term Liquidity
We have been managing our liquidity to assure that we continue to have sufficient access to cash to operate our businesses in the event the capital markets do not allow for near-term financing at reasonable terms. We are also closely monitoring the financial condition and concentration of lenders
in our bank facilities. There is no provision in any of the credit facilities that would require other lenders in the facility to assume loan commitments of any financial institution that fails to meet its loan commitments. As of June 30, 2009, no single institution represents more than 11% of the
commitments in our credit facilities.
74
We continually monitor our liquidity and seek to add capacity as needed to meet our liquidity requirements. Each of our credit facilities is restricted as to availability and use to the specific companies as listed below; however, if necessary, the PSEG facilities can also be used to support our
subsidiaries liquidity needs. Our total credit facilities and available liquidity as of June 30, 2009 were as follows:

|
In December 2011, these facilities reduce by $47 million, $75 million, and $28 million for PSEG, Power and PSE&G, respectively.
|
On July 24, 2009, Power entered into a new $350 million syndicated credit facility that expires in July 2011. This new facility is available for funding the obligations of Power and its subsidiaries. Also as of July 24, 2009, Energy Holdings terminated its $136 million syndicated credit facility. As
noted above, the PSEG credit facilities can be used to support our subsidiaries liquidity needs, including those of Energy Holdings.
In September 2009, a $50 million bilateral credit facility and a $150 million bilateral credit facility at Power are scheduled to expire. We are currently reviewing the liquidity requirements for Power. If it is determined that additional capacity is required to support Powers needs, we will seek to
add this capacity at the appropriate time.
Long-Term Debt Financing
We have $249 million of debt maturities upcoming in the third and fourth quarters of 2009. We believe that we will be able to refinance or retire these obligations assuming continued access to the capital markets. For a discussion of our long-term debt transactions during 2009, see Note 6.
Changes in Capitalization.
Common Stock Dividends and Repurchases
Dividend payments on common stock for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 were $0.3325 per share and totaled $168 million. Dividend payments on common stock for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 were $0.3225 per share and totaled $164 million.
75
Dividend payments on common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $0.6650 per share and totaled $336 million. Dividend payments on common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $0.6450 per share and totaled $328 million.
In July 2008, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $750 million of our common stock to be executed over 18 months beginning August 1, 2008. We are not obligated to acquire any specific number of shares and may suspend or terminate share repurchases at any time. We
repurchased 2,382,200 shares of our common stock for $92 million under this authorization through September 30, 2008. No repurchases have been made since that date.
On July 21, 2009, our Board of Directors approved a common stock dividend of $0.3325 per share for the third quarter of 2009. This reflects an indicated annual dividend rate of $1.33 per share. We expect to continue to pay cash dividends on our common stock; however, the declaration and
payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our businesses, alternate investment opportunities, legal requirements, regulatory
constraints, industry practice and other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.
Credit Ratings
If the rating agencies lower or withdraw our credit ratings, such revisions may adversely affect the market price of our securities and serve to materially increase our cost of capital and limit access to capital. Outlooks assigned to ratings are as follows: stable, negative (Neg) or positive (Pos).
There is no assurance that the ratings will continue for any given period of time or that they will not be revised by the rating agencies, if, in their respective judgments, circumstances warrant. Each rating given by an agency should be evaluated independently of the other agencies ratings. The
ratings should not be construed as an indication to buy, hold or sell any security. In March 2009, S&P affirmed the ratings and outlooks of PSEG, Power and PSE&G. In June 2009, Fitch affirmed the ratings and outlooks of PSEG, Power and PSE&G.

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
We expect that the majority of funding for our capital requirements over the next three years will come from internally generated funds. The balance will be provided by the issuance of debt at the respective subsidiary or project level and by equity contributions from us to our subsidiaries.
76
PSE&Gs projected construction and investment expenditures through 2011 are
expected to increase by $1.3 billion as compared to amounts reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase is due primarily to:
|
|
|
|
|
$694 million of spending accelerated from later years under the Capital Economic Stimulus Program approved by the BPU in April 2009, |
|
|
|
|
|
$166 million for the Energy Efficiency Economic Stimulus program approved by the BPU on July 1, 2009, and |
|
|
|
|
|
$418 million for Solar 4 All and $31 million for Demand Response, both of which were approved by the BPU on July 29, 2009.
|
These expenditures will be financed by a combination of external capital and internally generated funds and earn concurrent return on investment.
Other than this increase at PSE&G, our projected construction and investment expenditures through 2011 are consistent with the amounts disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Power
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, Power made $309 million of capital expenditures (excluding $116 million for nuclear fuel), primarily related to various projects at Fossil and Nuclear. For additional information regarding current projects, see Note 6. Commitments and Contingent
Liabilities.
PSE&G
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, PSE&G made $379 million of capital expenditures, primarily for reliability of transmission and distribution systems. The $379 million does not include expenditures for cost of removal, net of salvage, of $24 million, which are included in operating cash
flows.
ACCOUNTING MATTERS
For information related to recent accounting matters, see Note 2. Recent Accounting Standards.
ITEM 3. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The market risk inherent in our market-risk sensitive instruments and positions is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in commodity prices, equity security prices and interest rates as discussed in the notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. It is our policy to use
derivatives to manage risk consistent with business plans and prudent practices. We have a Risk Management Committee comprised of executive officers who utilize a risk oversight function to ensure compliance with our corporate policies and risk management practices.
Additionally, we are exposed to counterparty credit losses in the event of non-performance or non-payment. We have a credit management process, which is used to assess, monitor and mitigate counterparty exposure. In the event of non-performance or non-payment by a major counterparty, there
may be a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or net cash flows.
Commodity Contracts
The availability and price of energy-related commodities are subject to fluctuations from factors such as weather, environmental policies, changes in supply and demand, state and federal regulatory policies, market rules and other events. To reduce price risk caused by market fluctuations, we enter
into supply contracts and derivative contracts, including forwards, futures, swaps and options with approved counterparties. These contracts, in conjunction with demand obligations, help reduce risk and optimize the value of owned electric generation capacity.
77
Value-at-Risk (VaR) Models
We use VaR models to assess the market risk of our commodity businesses. The portfolio VaR model includes our owned generation and physical contracts, as well as fixed price sales requirements, load requirements and financial derivative instruments. VaR represents the potential losses, under
normal market conditions, for instruments or portfolios due to changes in market factors, for a specified time period and confidence level. We estimate VaR across our commodity businesses.
We manage our exposure at the portfolio level, which consists of owned generation, electric load-serving contracts, fuel supply contracts and energy derivatives designed to manage the risk around generation and load. While we manage our risk at the portfolio level, we also monitor separately the
risk of our trading activities and hedges. Non-trading mark-to-market (MTM) VaR consists of MTM derivatives that are economic hedges, some of which qualify for hedge accounting. The MTM derivatives that are not hedges are included in the trading VaR.
The VaR models used are variance/covariance models adjusted for the change of positions with a 95% confidence level and a one-day holding period for the MTM trading and non-trading activities, and a 95% confidence level with a one-week holding period for the portfolio VaR. The models
assume no new positions throughout the holding periods; however, we actively manage our portfolio.
As of each of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, trading VaR was approximately $1 million.

Credit Risk
Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that we would incur as a result of non-performance by counterparties pursuant to the terms of their contractual obligations. We have established credit policies that we believe significantly minimize credit risk. These policies include an evaluation of potential
counterparties financial condition (including credit rating), collateral requirements under certain circumstances and the use of standardized agreements, which allow for the netting of positive and negative exposures associated with a single counterparty.
In the event of non-performance or non-payment by a major counterparty, there may be a material adverse impact on Powers financial condition, results of operations or net cash flows. As of June 30, 2009, 99% of the credit exposure (MTM plus net receivables and payables, less cash collateral)
for Powers operations was with investment grade counterparties.
78
The following table provides information on Powers credit exposure, net of collateral, as of June 30, 2009. Credit exposure is defined as any positive results of netting accounts receivable/accounts payable and the forward value on open positions. It further delineates that exposure by the credit
rating of the counterparties and provides guidance on the concentration of credit risk to individual counterparties and an indication of the quality of the companys credit risk by credit rating of the counterparties.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established and maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be
disclosed in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported and is accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of each respective company, as appropriate, by others within the entities to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have established a disclosure committee which includes several key management employees and which reports directly to the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer of each respective company. The committee monitors and
evaluates the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures. The Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer of each company have evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures and, based on this evaluation, have concluded that disclosure controls and
procedures at each respective company were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by the report.
Internal Controls
Effective April 1, 2009, PSE&G replaced a stand alone legacy customer information system (CIS) with the SAP customer care system module (CCS). CCS is integrated with the existing series of SAP enterprise resource planning modules, including financial reporting, general ledger, property
accounting, treasury, supply chain, payroll, human resources, and work management. CCS is used for customer bill production and integrates revenue, accounts receivable and cash management transactions with the general ledger module.
The implementation of the CCS module and the related workflow capabilities resulted in material changes to PSE&Gs internal controls over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Therefore, PSE&G has modified and continues to
modify internal controls relating to the new system to replace and supplement existing internal controls over financial reporting, as appropriate. The system changes were undertaken to integrate the computer environment and were not undertaken in response to any actual or perceived deficiencies
in PSE&Gs internal control over financial reporting.
We continually review our disclosure controls and procedures and make changes, as necessary, to ensure the quality of our financial reporting. Other than the implementation of the CCS module and the related workflow capabilities at PSE&G, there have been no changes in internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, any registrants internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are party to various lawsuits and regulatory matters in the ordinary course of business. For information regarding material legal proceedings, including updates to information reported under Item 3 of Part I of the respective 2008 Annual Reports on Form 10-K of PSEG, Power and PSE&G, see

RPM Model
PJM FERC Filing to Prospectively Change Elements of RPM and FERC Order on PJM Filing
2008 Form 10-K, Page 43. PJM submitted a filing at FERC seeking to implement certain prospective changes to the RPM model. Issues in this proceeding included:
|
|
|
|
|
the cost of new entry (CONE), |
|
|
|
|
|
integration of transmission upgrades into RPM modeling, |
|
|
|
|
|
recognition of locational capacity value, |
|
|
|
|
|
participation in RPM by demand-side and energy efficiency resources, penalties for deficiencies and unavailability of capacity resources, and |
|
|
|
|
|
the calculation of avoided cost and long-term contracting to encourage new entry.
|
In March 2009, the FERC issued an order accepting various parts of the filing and rejecting others, including retaining CONE values and reducing RPM auction requirements to encourage participation. While we believe that the order is generally positive, we sought rehearing of this order for
further adjustments to PJMs filing.
A stakeholder process is currently ongoing to address a number of significant RPM design issues, including a revised mechanism to automatically set CONE values based on market information. PJM is expected to make a filing incorporating certain RPM revisions by September 2009.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The risk factors discussed below should be read in conjunction with, and update and supplement the risk factors discussed in PSEGs, Powers and PSE&Gs respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
March 31, 2009.
2008 Form 10-K, Page 32. We are subject to numerous federal and state environmental laws and regulations that may significantly limit or affect our business, adversely impact our business plans or expose us to significant environmental fines and liabilities.

Dry Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) Waste ManagementPursuant to our November 2006 agreement with EPA and the NJDEP to meet targeted reductions in emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2), we are installing dry FGD equipment at our Mercer and Hudson stations, with completion
scheduled for December 2010. A by-product of operation of this equipment is dry FGD waste. We are currently evaluating options for beneficial use and for disposal. Dry FGD waste is currently regulated as a solid waste under federal and state law, but is being evaluated by EPA for
regulation as a hazardous waste, or may be regulated in a way in which it may become more difficult to be beneficially reused. There could be additional material costs for us to manage FGD waste if the EPA adopts new regulations which impede upon the viability of beneficially reusing
FGD waste, including but not limited to the regulation of FGD waste as a hazardous waste. |
|
|
|
|
|
Coal Ash ManagementA by-product of the combustion of coal is coal ash. Three types of coal ash are produced at our Hudson, Mercer and Bridgeport stations: bottom ash, fly ash, and slag. Two types of coal ash are produced at our Keystone and Conemaugh stations: bottom ash and fly
ash. We currently have a program in which we beneficially re-use ash in other processes to avoid |
81
|
|
|
|
disposal. Coal ash is currently regulated as a solid waste under federal and state law, but not as a hazardous waste. The EPA is currently evaluating whether coal ash should be regulated more stringently, including but not limited to regulating coal ash as a hazardous waste. Proposed EPA
regulations which more stringently regulate coal ash, including reclassifying coal ash as a hazardous waste, could result in additional costs to our Hudson, Mercer, Bridgeport, Keystone, and Conemaugh stations. Any future regulation of coal ash could result in additional costs which could
be material.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
Certain information reported under the 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K is updated below. Additionally, certain information is provided for new matters that have arisen subsequent to the filing of the 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. References are to the related pages on the Form 10-K as
printed and distributed.
FEDERAL REGULATION
Transmission Expansion
2008 Form 10-K, Page 22 and First Quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, page 64. PJM previously approved the construction of a 500 kV transmission line running from Virginia through Maryland and Delaware (the Mid-Atlantic Pathway Project or MAPP). PJM has determined that the portion of the
project running from Delaware to Lower Alloways Creek Township, New Jersey, for which PSE&G would have construction and operating responsibility, is not required at this time. As a result, the New Jersey portion of the project was removed from the list of approved RTEP projects. PJM will
continue to evaluate the need for this portion of the project. In March 2009, we obtained from FERC approval of a 150 basis point ROE adder for this project (yielding a ROE of 13.18%), 100% recovery of abandonment costs and the ability to transfer the project to an affiliate. Receipt of
incentive rates is contingent upon our portion of the MAPP project being approved by PJM as a RTEP project in the future.
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Congestion StudyNational Interest Electric Transmission Corridors and FERC Back-Stop Siting Authority
2008 Form 10-K, Page 20 and First Quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, page 64. In October 2007, the DOE acted to designate transmission corridors within these critical congestion areas. One of the designated corridors is the Mid-Atlantic Area National Corridor. Thus, entities seeking to build
transmission within the Mid-Atlantic Area Corridor, which includes New Jersey, most of Pennsylvania and New York, may be able to use the FERCs back-stop siting authority in the future under certain circumstances, if necessary, to site transmission, including with respect to the Susquehanna-
Roseland line. In February 2009, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit narrowed the scope of the FERCs back-stop siting authority. FERC
82
sought reconsideration of this Court of Appeals decision, which was subsequently denied. Parties have until August 18, 2009 to seek review of this decision by the Supreme Court. In August 2009, the DOE is expected to issue a new Congestion Study, as required by law, which may designate
additional corridors and/or revise the existing corridors.
STATE REGULATION
Rates
Rate Adjustment Clause (RAC)
2008 Form 10-K, Page 22 and First Quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, page 65. In December 2008, we filed a RAC 16 petition with the BPU requesting an increase in electric and gas RAC rates of approximately $16 million annually. On June 25, 2009, a settlement was signed by the parties and filed
with the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) for the requested amounts. The ALJs Initial Decision was approved by the BPU at its July 29, 2009 Agenda Meeting.
Electric and Gas Base Rate Case
On May 29, 2009, we filed a Petition with the BPU for an increase in electric and gas distribution base rates. The amounts requested are $134 million and $97 million for electric and gas respectively, to be effective March 1, 2010. The matter is pending with a decision expected in early 2010.
Energy Supply
BGSS
2008 Form 10-K, Page 23 and First Quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, page 65. In May 2008, PSE&G requested an increase in annual BGSS revenue of $376 million, excluding Sales and Use Tax, to be effective October 1, 2008. Since that time, due to the significant downward trend in wholesale
natural gas prices, we filed three revisions to the BGSS increase, a revised Stipulation (increase of 14% or $267 million), a BGSS self-implementing decrease (5% or approximately $108 million) and a second BGSS self-implementing decrease (7% or approximately $145 million). The increase in
the BGSS-Residential Service Gas (RSG) rate became effective on October 3, 2008 and the decreases became effective on January 1, 2009 and March 1, 2009, respectively. On May 15, 2009, the BPU approved the Stipulation of the Parties which made the current BGSS rate final and resolved all
issues in the proceeding.
In May 2009, PSE&G made its Annual BGSS filing with the BPU. The filing requested a decrease in annual BGSS revenue of $133 million, excluding Sales and Use Tax, to be effective October 1, 2009. This represents a reduction of approximately 7.0% for a typical residential gas heating
customer. This matter is pending.
Energy Policy
Solar Initiatives
2008 Form 10-K, Page 23 and First Quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, page 65. We are investing approximately $105 million over two years in a pilot program to help finance the installation of 30 MW of solar systems throughout our electric service area by providing loans to customers for the
installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on their premises. As of July 3, 2009, we have provided approximately $13 million in loans for approximately 3.5 MW of solar systems.
On March 31, 2009, we also filed a new solar loan program, called Solar Loan II, with the BPU. This program is modeled similarly to the original solar loan pilot program discussed above. Under Solar Loan II, we would help finance the installation of an additional 40 MW of solar systems in
our electric service territory. Any remaining financing and capacity from the original solar loan program would be rolled into the new program. A procedural schedule has been established under which the BPU is required to act on our filing by October 2009.
83
In July 2009, the BPU approved our Solar 4 All Program. Under this program, we will invest approximately $515 million of capital, and $22 million for operations and maintenance to develop 80MW of utility-owned solar PV systems over a four-year horizon. The program consists of solar
systems installed on PSE&G-owned sites (25MW), solar systems installed on distribution system poles (40MW) and solar systems
installed on third-party sites in our electric service territory (15MW). The program provides
for a charge for recovery of a return on the program expenditures.
Energy Efficiency Economic Stimulus Program
2008 Form 10-K, Page 24. On July 16, 2009, the BPU issued an Order approving our Energy Efficiency Economic Stimulus Program. Under this program, we anticipate approximately $166 million of capital, and $24 million for operations and maintenance, and technology costs, in energy
effeciency expenditures, through PSE&G for electric and gas programs in New Jersey over an 18 month period. Goals of the program are to help New Jersey meet its Energy Master Plan goal of reducing energy consumption by 20% by 2020 and to help improve New Jerseys economy through the
creation of new jobs. The program provides for a charge for recovery of a return on the program expenditures.
Capital Economic Stimulus Infrastructure Program
2008 Form 10-K, Page 25 and First Quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, page 65. On January 21, 2009, we filed for approval of a capital economic stimulus infrastructure investment program. Under this initiative, we proposed to undertake $698 million of capital infrastructure investments for electric and
gas programs through PSE&G, over a 24 month period. The goal of these accelerated capital investments is to help improve the States economy through the creation of new jobs. This filing was made in response to the Governor of New Jerseys proposal to help revive the economy through job
growth and capital spending.
The BPU approved a settlement agreement on April 16, 2009 which identified 38 qualifying projects totaling $694 million. These projects are expected to create more than 900 new jobs. On April 28, 2009, we received the BPUs written order which was effective May 1, 2009.
Under the program, new Capital Adjustment Charges (CAC) will provide for immediate recovery of a return on program expenditures plus depreciation of the assets. The CAC will be adjusted each January based on forecasted program expenditures and will be subject to deferred accounting. The
rates are subject to annual adjustments based on actual expenditures and actual general and economic market conditions.
Susquehanna-Roseland BPU Petition
2008 Form 10-K, Page 25 and First Quarter 2009 Form 10-Q, page 65. In January 2009, we filed a Petition with the BPU seeking authorization from the BPU to construct the New Jersey portion of the Susquehanna-Roseland line. The New Jersey portion of the line spans approximately 45
miles and crosses through 16 municipalities. The Petition seeks a finding from the BPU that municipal land use and zoning ordinances do not apply to this line. A procedural schedule has been established, and both the discovery phase and the public hearing phase of the process have been
completed. Under the procedural schedule, the BPU expects to issue a decision in December 2009.
In June 2009, the New Jersey Highlands Council provided a favorable applicability determination with respect to the portion of the project crossing the Highlands region. Approval by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection of the Highlands council determination is now pending.
We are also in the process of seeking to obtain all other necessary environmental permits for the project, including
from the National Park Service, to support the start of construction in summer 2010, which can not be assured.
