Iowa Admin. Code r. 199-26.12 - Applications pursuant to Iowa Code section 476.6 that are not general rate increase applications

At the time a utility, other than a rural electric cooperative that has elected to be rate regulated by the commission, files for new or changed rates, charges, schedules, or regulations, except in conjunction with general rate increase applications, the utility shall file the following:

(1) Any cost, revenue, or economic data underlying the filing.

(2) An explanation of how the proposed tariff would affect the rates and service of the utility.

(3) All testimony and exhibits in support of the filing, attached to affidavits of the sponsoring witnesses.

(4) Automatic adjustment clauses. The notice requirements in this chapter do not apply to rates filed pursuant to an automatic adjustment mechanism approved by the commission. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prohibit a utility from making provision for the automatic adjustment of rates for utility service, provided that a schedule showing the automatic adjustment of rates shall first be filed with and approved by the commission. The initial approval of an automatic adjustment mechanism requires notice to customers and may require a contested case proceeding.
