Here is my suggestion to the DC attorney general:  If your plan is to give the money back to the consumers then I am all for it.  If your plan is to incorporate the money into the city's coffers, then forget about it.  The money belongs to the consumers.  Encourage AT&T to pay consumers for any unused balances on their prepaid cards.  Use a 3 year time period as the cut off.  The cards should have time stamps recorded on them so you will be able to tell if the 3 year window requirement is met.  I would rather have the money put directly in the hands of the consumers and not the hands of politicians who will decide for the consumers what is best.
