Subject:
Tariff filing by Fillmore Gas Co., Inc. to modify the SIP Mechanism.
Purpose:
To consider the tariff filing by Fillmore Gas Co., Inc. to modify the SIP Mechanism.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Public Service Commission is considering whether to grant, modify or deny, in whole or in part, a tariff amendment filed on July 14, 2015 by Fillmore Gas Company, Inc. (Fillmore or the Company) which would modify the existing System Improvement Plan (SIP) Mechanism, which addresses the costs associated with the replacement of bare steel pipe, back-lot mains and services utilizing a risk-based approach.
