Statute text

(a)The board shall authorize a pilot to establish a catastrophic event memorandum account and to record in that account the costs of maintaining, restoring, repairing, or replacing the provision of pilotage services to customers due to a catastrophic event.

(b)The costs, including capital costs, recorded in a catastrophic event memorandum account shall only be recovered through the catastrophic event surcharge following the submission of an application by an affected pilot, the board finding the reasonableness of the costs identified in a catastrophic event memorandum account, and approval by the board of a definitive and exact amount of costs authorized to recover. The board may adjust the total amount of costs to be recovered to reflect any associated savings to ongoing operations or other pilot capital costs as a result from the expense of pilot costs associated with those identified in a catastrophic event memorandum account.

(c)The board shall hold a proceeding in response to a pilot application to recover costs associated with catastrophic events, including a hearing conducted pursuant to Article 9 (commencing with Section 11120) of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code.
