Item 8.01 Other Events
As previously disclosed, on December 3, 2013, the Arizona Corporation Commission (“ACC”) issued an order instituting a charge on customers who install rooftop solar panels after December 31, 2013. In its order, the ACC also required Arizona Public Service Company (“APS”) to file its next rate case in June 2015, the earliest date contemplated in the 2012 settlement agreement between APS and other parties to its most recent general retail rate case.
On July 22, 2014, the ACC Commissioners voted to reopen the December 2013 decision for the limited purpose of deciding whether to eliminate the requirement that APS file its next rate case in June 2015. On August 12, 2014, the ACC Commissioners voted 5 – 0 to lift the requirement that APS file its next general rate case by June 2015. The Commissioners also agreed to discuss at the ACC’s September open meeting possible next steps for considering rate design issues.
