            Public Notice #8002 published in the Pinedale Roundup on Sept. 27, Oct. 4, 11, 2019

PUBLIC NOTICE

Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules, notice is hereby given that a public hearing is scheduled regarding Rocky Mountain Power’s (RMP or the Company) Application requesting an accounting order for settlement charges related to its pension plans (Application). The Wyoming Office of Consumer Advocate (OCA) and Wyoming Industrial Energy Consumers (WIEC) have intervened in this matter. The public hearing is set to commence on Tuesday, October 29, 2019, at 9:00 a.m., in the Commission’s hearing room located at 2515 Warren Avenue, Suite 300, in Cheyenne, Wyoming.

RMP is a public utility as defined in Wyo. Stat. § 37-1-101(a)(vi)(C), subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction pursuant to Wyo. Stat. § 37-2-112.

On December 31, 2018, RMP filed an Application requesting authority to [i] defer the expected impacts associated with the occurrence of a pension event in 2018 and resulted in a $21 million pension-related loss for the year, and any subsequent similar pension events; and [ii] amortize the impact of pension events (i.e., the increase or reduction in regulatory assets or liabilities) to expense over the same period that is used to amortize the underlying regulatory assets or liabilities with the opportunity to recover the amount in rates as part of net periodic benefit cost. The Company’s proposal is designed to maintain normalized pension costs and credits and avoid exposing customers to potential cost volatility from single year “pension events.”

All interested persons are encouraged to attend the public hearing which will be conducted in accordance with the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission Rules and Special Regulations. Interested persons may appear and be heard, either in person or through counsel, as provided by Commission Rule.

The Commission’s hearings are open to all persons. If you wish to attend the hearing and you require reasonable accommodation for a disability, please contact the Commission at (307) 777-7427 (Voice or TTY) in Cheyenne during regular business hours or write them at 2515 Warren Avenue, Suite 300, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82002, to make arrangements. Communications impaired persons may also contact the Commission by accessing Wyoming Relay (TTY) by dialing 711. Please mention Docket No. 20000-550-EA-18 (Record No. 15179) in your correspondence.

PUBLIC NOTICE

The Wyoming Public Service Commission (Commission) approved the Application of Questar Gas Company d/b/a Dominion Energy Wyoming (Dominion Energy or Company) for authority to adjust the amortization of the Conservation Enabling Tariff (CET) deferred account balance, which will appear on customer bills as an adjustment to the non-gas cost portion of the Company’s Wyoming General Service (GS) rates.

In the GS rate, the current CET surcharge is $0.05474 per dekatherm (Dth) for Block 1 (monthly usage up to 45 Dth) and $0.04869 per Dth for Block 2 (monthly usage above 45 Dth). In its Application, Dominion Energy represented that the CET accrual as of July 2019 ended in an under-collected balance of $566,573.19. In this filing, Dominion Energy proposes to implement a CET surcharge of $0.16102 per Dth for Block 1 and $0.14322 per Dth for Block 2. The net effect is an increase to the current GS rates. Exhibit 1.4 to the Application provides that a residential GS customer using 90 Dth annually will experience an increase of $9.57 annually, or 1.32% or an increase of $725.43 annually under current rates to $735.00 under the proposed rates.

Dominion Energy’s Application is on file at the Commission’s offices in Cheyenne, Wyoming and at the Company’s business office at 1005 D Street, Rock Springs, Wyoming, and any interested person may inspect the Application during regular business hours or online at: http://psc.state.wy.us/.

            Public Notice #8023 published in the Pinedale Roundup on Oct. 11, 18, 2019

PUBLIC NOTICE

Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules, notice is hereby given of the Application of Rocky Mountain Power (RMP or the Company) for authority to revise Section II. of Rule 6, as more fully described below.

RMP is a public utility as defined in Wyo. Stat. § 37-1-101(a)(vi)(C), subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction pursuant to Wyo. Stat. § 37-2-112.

RMP filed its Application on September 12, 2019, requesting authority to revise Section II. of Rule 6 (Company’s Installation) to include a new option for customers to receive single phase 240/480 volt (240/480V) secondary service. According to RMP, approximately forty percent of its distribution lines are constructed as single phase power and the lack of three phase supply can create challenges for customers with equipment that requires three phase service. In particular, electric motors (typically used for irrigation, sewage lift stations, mine ventilation, etc.) have limited commercial availability in single phase ratings above 7.5 horsepower.

RMP states that the cost to extend three phase primary lines ranges from $60,000 to $150,000 per mile and approval of the Company’s proposal would reduce costs to provide this particular electrical service to the number of commercial applications that will benefit from the 240/480V option. RMP states that providing the service will have very little impact to the Company’s current construction standards, practices and inventory requirements.

This is not a complete description of the Application. Interested persons may inspect the Application at RMP’s business offices throughout Wyoming and at the Commission’s offices in Cheyenne, Wyoming, during regular business hours.

Anyone desiring to file a public comment, statement, intervention petition, protest or request for a public hearing in this matter must do file with the Commission in writing on or before November 4, 2019. Any intervention request filed with the Commission shall set forth the grounds of the proposed intervention or request for hearing as well as the position and the interest of the petitioner in this proceeding.

If you wish to intervene in this matter or request a public hearing which you will attend and you require reasonable accommodation for a disability, call the Commission at (307) 777-7427 or write to the Commission, 2515 Warren Avenue, Suite 300, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82002. Communications-impaired persons may contact the Commission through Wyoming Relay at 711. Please mention Docket No. 20000-567-ET-19 (Record No. 15349) in your communications.

Dated: October 4, 2019.
