(b) “Excess rate reduction bond proceeds,” as used in this section, means proceeds from the sale of rate reduction bonds authorized by commission financing orders issued pursuant to this article that are subsequently determined by the commission to be in excess of the amounts necessary to provide the 10-percent rate reduction during the period when the rates were frozen pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 368.
