          On March 1, 2006, members of PG&E Corporation’s and Pacific Gas and Electric Company's (Utility) management will participate in an investor conference using the presentation slides attached hereto as Exhibit 99.  A webcast of the investor conference and a copy of the presentation slides are available on PG&E Corporation's web site, www.pgecorp.com.

          The attached Exhibit 99 contains forward-looking statements regarding management's guidance for PG&E Corporation's 2006 and 2007 earnings from operations per share, capital expenditures, rate base and rate base growth, anticipated share repurchases and equity issuances, anticipated costs and benefits from Transformation initiatives, anticipated electric resources, energy efficiency funding, forecasted electric and gas sales, and targeted average annual growth rate for PG&E Corporation's earnings per share from operations, and cash flow and liquidity, over the 2006-2010 period.  These statements are based on current expectations and various assumptions which management believes are reasonable, including that substantial capital investments are made in Utility business over the 2006-2010 period, that the Utility earns an authorized return on equity of 11.35%, and that share repurchases are made. These statements are necessarily subject to various risks and uncertainties the realization or resolution of which are outside of management’s control.  Actual results could differ materially.  Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward looking statements and assumptions include:
