California Code, Public Utilities Code - PUC § 130532

The commission may from time to time issue or renew notes in anticipation of the sale of bonds or otherwise. The commission may also issue notes partly to renew notes or to discharge any other outstanding obligation and partly for any other purpose. Notes may be authorized, sold, and delivered in the same manner as bonds. Any resolution of the commission authorizing notes may contain any provision which the commission may include in any resolution authorizing bonds, and the commission may include in the notes any terms, covenants, or conditions which it may include in bonds. Notes shall be paid from any revenues of the commission or other money available therefor and not otherwise pledged, or from the proceeds of the sale of the bonds in anticipation of which the notes were issued, subject to any contractual rights of the holders of any outstanding notes or other obligations.
