PG&E: Bankruptcy Isn't Cheap
LCG, Aug. 6, 2001--Pacific Gas & Electric Co., which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on April 6, and its parent holding company, PG&E Corp., had by the end of June spent $9 million on lawyers and other expenses connected with the bankruptcy, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday.That is only one one-thousandth of the $9 billion in debt PG&E ran up paying high prices for wholesale electricity that the utility was required to resell to its customers at low retail rates mandated by California's failed electric deregulation scheme.But bankruptcy experts have estimated that the total bill for armies of lawyers, accountants, investment bankers and others advising the utility, its parent company and the utility's creditors during the course of the bankruptcy proceeding could approach a half-billion dollars.The Times noted that for the six months ended June 30, PG&E Corp. and its utility spent $25 million after taxes on professional fees and expenses related to the bankruptcy. The $16 million spent in the first quarter reflects the enormous task of preparing for the third-largest bankruptcy filing in U.S. history, the paper said.PG&E must file a plan of reorganization showing how it will pay off its debts by December 6. PG&E Corp. and its unregulated subsidiaries are not included in the bankruptcy case.
