704.095 Simplified procedures or methodologies for changing rates for certain public utilities furnishing water or services for sewage.
1. The Commission shall adopt regulations which provide simplified procedures or methodologies for a change of rates for those public utilities which furnish water or services for the disposal of sewage, or both, to persons within this State for compensation, and which:
(a) Serve 3,000 or fewer persons; and
(b) Had during the immediately preceding 12-month period gross sales for water or services for the disposal of sewage amounting to $2,000,000 or less. If a public utility furnishes both water and services for the disposal of sewage, its gross sales for each service must be considered separately for determining whether the public utility qualifies under this paragraph for either service.
2. The regulations adopted by the Commission pursuant to subsection 1 must provide, without limitation, for the filing of letters of advice to change rates based on a nationally recognized inflation index approved by the Commission.
