Cal-Ore’s Request
On October 2, 2023, Cal-Ore filed an application with the CPUC requesting approval of its proposed intrastate rates, revenue requirement, and rate design. Cal-Ore does not propose changing the rates for its basic residential or basic business rates. Cal-Ore’s application includes a request to modify California High Cost Fund-A amounts that the company receives. Cal-Ore’s current residential end user rate is $25 per month, which is approximately $35.42 when applicable federal and state fees and surcharges are included. The Administrative Law Judge assigned to the proceeding is scheduled to issue a Proposed Decision in the case for consideration by the CPUC within a year.
