Compilation of Rules and Regulations of the State of Georgia › Department 515 - RULES OF GEORGIA PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION › Chapter 515-7 - GAS UTILITIES › Subject 515-7-2 - GAS SUPPLY PLANS AND GAS COST ADJUSTMENT FACTORS › Rule 515-7-2-.08 - Monthly and Quarterly Informational Filing Requirements

Current through Rules and Regulations filed through June 27, 2024
(1) The Utility
				shall file monthly with the Commission information that demonstrates whether
				its actual monthly Purchased Gas Costs were incurred in accordance with a Gas
				Supply Plan which had become effective in accordance with the provisions of
				O.C.G.A. § 46-226.5. This monthly report to the Commission will show these data
				for the most recent month with not more than a three month lag, each individual
				previous month of the Recovery Year, and year-to-date totals. The format of
				such filings will be as set forth in Tables 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 in the Appendix
				to this Rule, or in a similar format if it contains substantially the same
				information. Purchased Gas Costs will be documented by reporting monthly rates
				and prices for supplies and services purchased, and by reporting monthly
				billing units and gas supplies volumes. (Rates/prices applied to billing
				units/volumes should equal monthly costs.)
(2) Each Utility shall also file monthly with
				the Commission the most current data available showing over-recoveries or
				under-recoveries of actual Purchased Gas Costs resulting nol application of its
				Purchased Gas Adjustment Rate. Such data will be reported for the current
				month, for each individual previous month of the Recovery Year, and
				year-to-date (see Table 6 in the Appendix to this Rule).
(3) Whenever the Utility enters into a new
				firm contract, or renews, cancels or materially amends an existing contract to
				purchase gas supply, transportation or underground storage, or any other
				service authorized in its Gas Supply Plan, it shall notify the Commission by an
				informational filing within 30 days of the change to the contract's
				status.
(4) The Utility shall
				include in its Supply Plan monthly projections between the conclusion of the
				twelve month actual historical period and the Recovery Year. These interim data
				will be provided in a similar format to the monthly reconciliation filings,
				comparing actual volumes, revenues and Purchased Gas Costs with projections
				(see Tables 1-5 in the Appendix to lids Rule). These projected data will assist
				in the determination of the final under-recovery (or over-recovery) of
				Purchased Gas Costs that will be allowed in the Adjustment Factors for the
				upcoming Recovery Year.
