Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application of SJW Corp. To Withdraw 
Its Common Stock, $1.042 Par Value, From Listing and Registration on 
the American Stock Exchange LLC File No. 1-08966

December 1, 2005.
    On November 10, 2005, SJW Corp., a California corporation 
(``Issuer''), filed an application with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to section 12(d) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d) 
thereunder,\2\ to withdraw its common stock, $1.042 par value 
(``Security''), from listing and registration on the American Stock 
Exchange LLC (``Amex'').

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(d).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On October 27, 2005, the Board of Directors (``Board'') of the 
Issuer approved a resolution to withdraw the Security from listing on 
Amex. The Board decided that it is in the best interest of the Issuer 
to list the Security on the New York Stock Exchange (``NYSE''). In 
order to avoid the direct and indirect costs and the division of the 
market resulting from dual listing on Amex and NYSE, the Board decided 
to withdraw the Security from listing on Amex.
    The Issuer stated in its application that it has met the 
requirements of Amex Rule 18 by complying with all applicable laws in 
effect in the State of California, in which it is incorporated, and 
provided written notice of withdrawal to Amex.
    The Issuer's application relates solely to the withdrawal of the 
Security from listing on the Amex, and shall not affect its continued 
listing on the NYSE or its obligation to be registered under section 
12(b) of the Act.\3\

    Any interested person may, on or before December 23, 2005, comment 
on the facts bearing upon whether the application has been made in 
accordance with the rules of Amex, and what terms, if any, should be 
imposed by the Commission for the protection of investors. All comment 
letters may be submitted by either of the following methods:
