Notice of Utility Tariff Filing
The REGULATORY COMMISSION OF ALASKA (Commission) gives notice that Unified Alaskan Utilities (UAU) filed TA13-730, a revenue requirement study for the Moorehand service area based on a 2020 test year. If the Commission approves TA13-730 without suspending the filing into a docket, UAU requests a 1.03 percent increase on a permanent basis. If the Commission suspends TA13-730 into a docket, UAU requests a 7.09 percent increase on both an interim and permanent basis. UAU states that the increased rate will account for the anticipated costs associated with rate case expense.
