PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose of the rule amendments is to reduce the number of paper copies that companies must file with the Commission. Docket No. 080052-OT.
SUMMARY: The rule amendments would decrease the required number of copies of filings in various proceedings.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS: Regulated companies should have no additional costs because of the proposed rule changes with a slight benefit from fewer copies filed. Customers would have no additional costs because of the proposed rule changes. Small businesses regulated by the Public Service Commission would have a slight benefit from fewer copies filed under the rules. Small cities and counties would have no additional costs. Public Service Commission staff would benefit by not having to handle as many copies from a filing and not having to store the copies.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
