(Motion for Reconsideration - Oral Argument
Requested; Participation is at the Discretion of the Commission)
Issue 1:
Should OPC’s Request for Oral Argument on its Motion for Reconsideration of Order No. PSC-2024-0092-PCO-EI be granted?
No. Staff believes that the pleadings are sufficient on their face for the Commission to evaluate and rule on the Motion. However, if the Commission wants to exercise its discretion to hear oral argument, staff recommends that 5 minutes per side is sufficient.
Issue 2:
Should Reconsideration of Order No. PSC-2024-0092-PCO-EI or a continuance of this proceeding be granted?
No. Reconsideration should be denied because the request for reconsideration fails to raise a point of fact or law that the Prehearing Officer overlooked or failed to consider in rendering their decision. A continuance should not be granted as OPC has failed to provide adequate grounds for doing so, in contravention of the statutory time frames established by Section 366.06(3), F.S.
Issue 3:
Should this docket be closed?
No. This docket should remain open pending the Commission’s final resolution of DEF’s requested permanent base rate increase.
