Section 77-3-119 - Filing of true-up report by issuing entity; review by commission(1) If the commission issues a financing order and rate reduction bonds are issued, the issuing entity shall, as frequently as quarterly but no less frequently than annually, file with the commission a true-up report requesting the commission to review the rate reduction bond charge established in the financing order and authorize the true-up adjustments described herein. A copy of such report shall promptly be served upon the electric public utility collecting the rate reduction bond charge. The report shall present the amount of any overcollection or undercollection of the rate reduction bond charge and shall include a schedule applying the approved true-up adjustment mechanism authorized in the financing order and the resulting amount of any true-up adjustment required to ensure the recovery of revenues sufficient to provide for the timely payment of all financing costs when due.(2) The commission's review of the true-up report shall be limited to a determination of the existence and amount of any mathematical errors in the report concerning the application of the approved true-up adjustment mechanism. Within thirty (30) days after receiving a true-up report pursuant to this section, the commission shall, if necessary, revise the rate reduction bond charge and notify the electric public utility of such revision, or, if no revision to the rate reduction bond charge is required, the commission shall so notify the electric public utility. A true-up report requesting to revise the rate reduction bond charge shall be deemed approved if the requested revision is neither approved nor denied by the commission within thirty (30) days after the request is submitted.(3) Any true-up report requesting a true-up adjustment of a rate reduction bond charge shall not constitute a change in rates and shall not be subject to the requirements of Section 77-3-37 or 77-3-39.(4) Upon the adjustment of a rate reduction bond charge pursuant to this section and notification to the electric public utility, the electric public utility shall promptly adjust the rate reduction bond charge to become effective the next practicable billing cycle.Added by Laws, 2013, ch. 305, HB 1134, 7, eff. 2/26/2013.
