Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 13, July 16, 2024
A. Any public water utility electing to
				incorporate a clean water testing adjustment clause in any rate schedule shall
				use the following language: Billings under this schedule may be increased by an
				amount equal to the customer's pro rata share of testing expenses incurred by
				the utility in the prior billing months. For purposes of this schedule,
				"testing expenses" means only the actual costs paid by the utility to others
				for sampling and testing required by federal or state law. For purposes of this
				schedule, "pro rata share" means the total amount of testing expenses incurred
				in the prior billing months divided by the total number of customers served by
				the utility in the billing month. A utility can spread these costs out and
				collect them from its customers over a three-month period, rather than in a
				single month. A utility can also choose to collect its actual costs from
				customers using a monthly charge that is adjusted once every three months to
				reflect changes in the utility's actual costs.
B. The intent of this rule is to allow water
				utilities to collect the actual costs associated with clean water testing
				requirements imposed by federal or state law in a uniform manner for all water
				utilities under the jurisdiction of the Commission.

Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 13, July 16, 2024
Should a water utility elect to collect these expenses
				  through an adjustment clause, the amount to be collected shall be collected
				  from every customer on a pro rata basis as defined in NMPSC Rule 370.1
				  [17.12.370.9
				  NMAC]. The amount shall be added to the utility billings by a clean water
				  testing surcharge and shall be so identified in a separate line item on the
				  customer's bill.
