Note to Financial Statements
-----------------------------


Basis of Presentation

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes the financial statements
of SDG&E Funding LLC, a Delaware special-purpose limited-liability
company whose sole member is San Diego Gas & Electric Company
(SDG&E), a provider of electric and natural-gas services. SDG&E is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Sempra Energy. This quarterly report
should be read in conjunction with SDG&E Funding LLC's Financial
Statements and Notes to Financial Statements included in its 1999
Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the three months ended March 31, 2000.

SDG&E Funding LLC believes that the accompanying statements reflect
all adjustments that are necessary to present a fair statement of
the financial position and results of operations for the interim
periods. All material adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature
unless otherwise disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

SDG&E Funding LLC was organized for the limited purposes of issuing
Notes and holding and servicing Transition Property. Notes are SDG&E
Funding LLC Notes, Series 1997-1, Class A-1 through Class A-7
(presented in the financial statements as "Long-Term Debt"), secured
by the Transition Property and other, limited collateral. Transition
Property is the right to be paid a specified amount (presented in
the financial statements as "Transition Property") from
nonbypassable charges, frequently referred to as "FTA Charges,"
levied on residential electric customers and small commercial
electric customers. The nonbypassable charges were authorized by the
California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) pursuant to the
electric industry restructuring mandated by California Assembly Bill
1890, as amended by California Senate Bill 477.

Since SDG&E Funding LLC is a single-member, limited-liability
company, its federal income tax effects and its State of California
franchise tax effects accrue to SDG&E.


Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
        and Results of Operations.

The following analysis of the financial condition and results of
operations of SDG&E Funding LLC (the Note Issuer) is in an
abbreviated format pursuant to Instruction H of Form 10-Q. Such
analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements
and Note to Financial Statements included in Item 1 above, the
Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements included in
the Note Issuer's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
three months ended March 31, 2000.

The Note Issuer is limited by its organizational documents to
engaging in the activities of owning certain property created
pursuant to the California Public Utilities Code (the "Transition
Property") and issuing SDG&E Funding LLC Notes, Series 1997-1, Class
A-1 through Class A-7 (the "Notes") secured by the Transition
Property and other limited collateral, and related activities. The
Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture between the Note Issuer
and Bankers Trust Company of California, N.A., as trustee (the
"Indenture"). The Note Issuer sold the Notes to the California
Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank Special Purpose Trust
SDG&E-1, a Delaware business trust (the "Trust"), which issued
certificates corresponding to each class of the Notes in a public
offering.

Operating statement effects are limited primarily to income
generated from the Transition Property, interest expense on the
Notes and incidental investment interest income. The Note Issuer
expects to use collections with respect to the Transition Property
to make scheduled principal and interest payments on the Notes.
Interest income earned on the Transition Property is expected to
offset (1) interest expense on the Notes, (2) amortization of debt-
issuance expenses and the discount on the Notes, and (3) the fees
charged by SDG&E for servicing the Transition Property and providing
administrative services to the Note Issuer.

Collections of FTA Charges (described in the Note to Financial
Statements) since inception of the program have met expectations.
For the second quarter of 2000, collections of $23,025,000 resulted
in an undercollection of $237,000 after deducting scheduled
principal and interest payments of $22,835,000, payments of $345,000
for servicing fees and other expenses, and $82,000 retained to fund
the Overcollateralization Account established under the Notes'
indenture. The undercollection was deducted from the previous
surplus collections. The remaining surplus collections will be
applied toward future payments on the Notes. Management believes
that it is reasonable to expect future collections of FTA Charges to
be sufficient to make scheduled payments on the Notes and pay
related expenses on a timely basis. The FTA Charges will be adjusted
at least annually if there is a material shortfall or overage in
collections.
