On May 16, 2024, the Board of County Commissioners of Columbia County (County) adopted Resolution No. 2024R-13 (Resolution), transferring regulation of the privately-owned, for profit water and wastewater utilities in Columbia County to the Florida Public Service Commission (Commission). Effective upon the adoption of the Resolution, all non-exempt water and wastewater systems in Columbia County became subject of the provisions of Chapter 367, Florida Statutes (F.S.). By Order No. PSC-2024-0222-FOF-WS, the Commission acknowledged the Resolution.[1]
Pursuant to Section 367.171(2)(b), F.S., each utility engaged in the operation or construction of a system shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the area served by such utility on the day the chapter becomes applicable to the utility. On August 16, 2024, Quail Heights Utilities LLC (Quail Heights or Utility) filed an application for a certificate under grandfather rights to provide water service in Columbia County pursuant to Section 367.171(2), F.S., and Rule 25-30.035, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). Quail Heights’ application was found to be deficient, and staff sent a deficiency letter to the Utility on August 29, 2024. On October 9, 2024, Quail Heights requested an extension to respond which was granted. A second deficiency letter was sent to the Utility on January 9, 2025, and the deficiencies were cured on February 7, 2025.
Quail Heights provides water service to 44 residential and one general service customers in Lake City at the Quail Heights Country Club. The community consists of a clubhouse, 41 single family homes, 2 duplexes, and 1 multi-family home. Wastewater service is provided by The City of Lake City. The Utility’s service area is located in the Suwanee River Water Management District. This recommendation addresses the application for a grandfather water certificate and rates and charges. The Commission has jurisdiction pursuant to Section 367.171, F.S.
Issue 1:
Should Quail Heights Utilities LLC’s application for a grandfather water certificate in Columbia County be acknowledged?
Recommendation:
Yes. Quail Heights’ application should be acknowledged and the Utility should be granted Certificate No. 692-W, effective May 16, 2024, to serve the territory described in Attachment A. The resultant order should serve as Quail Heights’ certificate and should be retained by the Utility. (Lewis, Lenberg, Bardin)
Staff Analysis:
The Utility’s application for a
certificate under grandfather rights to provide water service in Columbia
County is in compliance with Section 367.171(2)(b), F.S., and Rule 25-30.035,
F.A.C. The application contains a warranty deed as proof of ownership of the
land on which the Utility’s facilities are located, an accurate territory
description, and adequate service territory and system maps as required by Rule
No. 25-30.035, F.A.C. The territory description is provided in Attachment A.
As stated in the case background, Quail
Heights serves approximately 44 residential and one general
service customers. The Utility does not currently have any
outstanding citations, violations, or consent orders on file with the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection.
The Utility is aware of its obligation
to submit its 2024 Annual Report pursuant to Rule 25-30.110, F.A.C., and is
also aware of its obligation to pay regulatory assessment fees pursuant to Rule
25-30.120, F.A.C. In addition, the Utility is aware that it must maintain its
books and records according to the National Association of Regulatory Utility
Commissioners’ Uniform System of Accounts.
Conclusion
Based on the above, staff recommends that Quail Heights be granted Certificate No. 692-W to serve the territory described in Attachment A. The resultant order should serve as Quail Heights’ certificate and should be retained by the Utility.
Issue 2:
What rates should be approved for Quail Heights Utilities LLC?
Recommendation:
The Utility’s monthly rates that were in effect when Columbia County transferred jurisdiction to the Commission, shown on Schedule No. 1, should be approved. The rates should be effective for services rendered on or after the stamped approval date on the tariff pursuant to Rule 25-30.475, F.A.C. The Utility should be required to charge the approved rates until authorized to change them by this Commission in a subsequent proceeding. (Lenberg)
Staff Analysis:
The Utility’s current monthly water rates were established prior to the current ownership. The monthly water rates consist of a single flat rate and no gallonage charge. The Utility’s monthly rates that were in effect when Columbia County transferred jurisdiction to the Commission, shown on Schedule No. 1, should be approved. The rates should be effective for services rendered on or after the stamped approval date on the tariff pursuant to Rule 25-30.475, F.A.C. The Utility should be required to charge the approved rates until authorized to change them by this Commission in a subsequent proceeding.
Issue 3:
Should this docket be closed?
Recommendation:
Yes. Since there are no pending issues in this docket, the docket should be closed upon the issuance of the final order. (Farooqi)
Staff Analysis:
Yes. Since there are no pending issues in this docket, the docket should be closed upon the issuance of the final order.
