I.D No. PSC-38-14-00014-P
Calculation of the Gas Supply Charge
PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule:
Proposed Action:
The Commission is considering a tariff filing by Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation (RG&E) to make various changes to the rates, charges, rules and regulations contained in its Schedule for Gas Service P.S.C. No. 16.
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 65 and 66
Subject:
Calculation of the Gas Supply Charge.
Purpose:
To change the denominator used in RG&E's calculation of the Gas Supply Charge from historical to forecasted normalized sales.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Public Service Commission is considering whether to approve, modify or reject, in whole or in part, a tariff filing by Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation to make revisions to its gas tariff schedule, P.S.C. No. 16, to change the denominator used in the calculation of the Gas Supply Charge from historical normalized sales to forecasted normalized sales. The proposed revision to the calculation is similar to the method used by New York State Electric & Gas Corporation and provides consistency between the two Companies. The amendments have an effective date of January 1, 2015.
