| Summary |
Increased rates published in Tariff 9 that would generate $438,348 (2.6 percent) in additional annual revenue. The rate increase is a result of increased disposal fees charged by Pierce County and a recyclable commodity revenue adjustment that changes the current $1.59 credit to a $0.22 debit, an increase of $1.81 per customer per month. The Commission, on its own motion, will consider granting an exemption from WAC 480-07-520, supporting documents required to be filed in a general rate case. The company also proposes continued approval of its revenue sharing plan with Pierce County, and approval to retain thirty percent of the revenue received from the sale of recyclable materials collected in the company's residential recycling service. The company serves approximately 44,000 residential and commercial customers in Pierce County. |
