PSC Rejects AP and L Fuel Adjustment Clause Change
Arkansas Public Service Commission rejected Arkansas Power and Light Companys bid to revise its fuel adjustment clause. The ruling states the proposal is not a new rate schedule and cannot be enacted temporarily under bond pending a hearing. AP and L sought to extend the clause to rural cooperatives and private customers over eight dollars per month. The clause ties rates to fuel cost fluctuations for power generation. The company has been paying higher natural gas prices. The decision blocks the change until permanent PSC approval is granted.
