Issue 1:
Should the Commission approve LP Waterworks, Inc.'s application for a limited alternative rate increase?
Yes. The Commission should approve LP Waterworks’ application for a limited alternative rate increase in the amount of 20 percent. This equates to an increase of $23,061 for water and $21,378 for wastewater.

After the increased rates are in effect, pursuant to Rule 25-30.360(6), F.A.C., the Utility must file reports with the Office of Commission Clerk no later than the 20th of every month indicating the monthly and total amount of money subject to refund at the end of the preceding month. The report filed must also indicate the status of the security being used to guarantee repayment of any potential refund.
Issue 2:

The Utility should file tariff sheets and a proposed customer notice to reflect the Commission-approved rates. The approved rates should be effective for service rendered on or after the stamped approval date on the tariff sheets pursuant to Rule 25-30.475(1), F.A.C.

Yes. Pursuant to Rule 25-30.457(15), F.A.C., in the event of a protest of the Proposed Agency Action (PAA) Order by a substantially affected person other than the Utility, LP Waterworks should be authorized to implement the rates established in the LARI PAA Order on a temporary basis subject to refund upon the Utility filing a staff-assisted rate case application within 21 days of the date the protest is filed.

If LP Waterworks fails to file a staff-assisted rate case within 21 days, the Utility’s petition for a limited alternative rate increase will be deemed withdrawn pursuant to Rule 25-30.457(17), F.A.C. If no person whose substantial interests are affected by the proposed agency action files a protest within 21 days of the issuance of the order, a consummating order should be issued. The docket should remain open for staff’s verification that the revised tariff sheets, which reflect the Commission-approved rates, and customer notice have been filed by LP Waterworks and approved by staff, and so that staff may conduct an earnings review of the Utility pursuant to Rule 25-30.457(12), F.A.C.

Issue 1:
Are the Company’s proposed goals based on an adequate assessment of the full technical potential of all available demand-side and supply-side conservation and efficiency measures, including demand-side renewable energy systems?
Yes. PGS has analyzed the maximum system-wide therm savings theoretically possible from implementation of DSM measures commercially available in Florida. As such, staff recommends that the updated Technical Potential seen in Table 1-1 of staff’s memorandum dated March 21, 2019, is an adequate assessment of the full technical potential, and serves as an acceptable basis for the Company’s annual therm savings goals.
Issue 2:
What residential and commercial annual therm savings goals should be established for the period 2019-2028?
Staff recommends that the Commission establish the annual therm savings seen in Table 2-1 of staff’s memorandum dated March 21, 2019, as PGS’ annual conservation goals for the period 2019-2028. The Company’s proposed conservation goals adequately address the considerations enumerated in Section 366.82(3), F.S.
Issue 3:
Should the Commission approve the Company’s new residential and commercial audit programs?
Yes. The scope of both the Residential Customer Assisted Energy Audit and the Commercial Walk-Through Energy Audit meet the requirements established by FEECA. Accordingly, PGS should be allowed recovery of reasonable and prudent expenditures associated with these programs through the ECCR clause.
Issue 4:
Should this docket be closed?
Yes. If no person whose substantial interests are affected by the proposed agency action (PAA) files a protest within 21 days of the issuance of the PAA Order, a Consummating Order should be issued and the docket should be closed. If the Commission approves the proposed Residential Customer Assisted Energy Audit and the Commercial Walk-Through Energy Audit programs, those programs should become effective on the date of the Consummating Order. If a protest is filed within 21 days of the issuance of the PAA Order, the programs should not be implemented until after the resolution of the protest. Within 90 days of the issuance of the final order, PGS should file a demand-side management plan designed to meet the Utility’s approved goals.
