The purpose of the SPGRCMA is to track the costs associated with preparing, filing, processing and litigating its initial detailed stand-alone General Rate Case (GRC) for Sutter Pointe. BACKGROUND On June 26, 2014, the Commission issued Decision No. (D.) 14-06-051, which granted GSWC a certificate of public convenience and necessity (CPCN) to construct and operate a municipal and industrial water system, and to establish a new non-contiguous service area and rates in the southern and unincorporated portion of Sutter County, within a new South Sutter County Service Area to be established within the Natomas’ corporate boundaries of Sutter County, known as the Sutter Pointe Specific Plan area.1 1 Ordering Paragraph No. 1 in D.14-06-051. Advice Letter No. 1867-W -2- December 6, 2021 Furthermore, D. 14-06-051 requires GSWC to file an initial general rate case for South Sutter County before starting construction of the distribution or “in tract” infrastructure associated with the South Sutter County Service Area. The GRC must include full documentation and justifications of all of the underlying sources of data and assumptions it relies on in order to develop its initial general rate case for filing, as a detailed stand- alone general rate case filing (separate and apart from GSWC’s regular company-wide GRC filing).2 In addition, D. 14-06-051 established that GSWC is entitled to recover past, present and future costs in rates in connection with the proposed water system, subject to further prudence review by the Commission.3 Though the Commission found that GSWC is entitled to recover past, present and future costs after prudence review by the Commission, the Commission overlooked the necessity to provide a mechanism to track these costs in order that they could be presented to the Commission for the prudence review. This is the specific and sole purpose of this memorandum account request. A memorandum account allows the Commission to consider recovery of utility expenses that have occurred in the past without incurring retroactive ratemaking.4 STATUS OF PROJECT GSWC has been advised by South Sutter County that it is ready to proceed with the development of the project and construction of the distribution or “in tract” infrastructure associated with the South Sutter County Service Area will begin in the near future. GSWC is requesting a memorandum account to track the costs, other than those already included in rates, associated with preparing, filing, processing and litigating its initial detailed stand-alone general rate case for Sutter Pointe. GSWC anticipates filing its Sutter Pointe stand-alone GRC Proposed Application in the first half of 2022. In order to meet this filing date, GSWC has begun preparation of the stand-alone GRC. MEMORANDUM ACCOUNT JUSTIFICATION In accordance with the Commission’s Standard Practice U-27-W, establishing a memorandum account is conditional and must meet each of the following five criteria, which have been met by GSWC. 1. The event is not under the utility's control. 2 Id. Conclusions of Law 20, 21; Ordering Paragraph Nos. 9, 10 and 12 3 Id. Finding of Fact 18 4 Standard Practice U-27. Advice Letter No. 1867-W -3- December 6, 2021 The developer has full control over the decision on when to proceed with the development within the Sutter Pointe Specific Plan area based on its business plan and the economic conditions in the area. 2. The event could not have been reasonably foreseen in the utility's last general rate case. GSWC filed its General Rate Case to set rates for 2022-2024 in July 2020. At that time, GSWC could not have reasonably foreseen that it would incur costs associated with the Sutter Pointe stand-alone GRC in 2022 and 2023. As stated, GSWC was not in control as to when development would start and the need to construct the “in tract” infrastructure would arise. Even if GSWC did know when the need to construct the “in tract” infrastructure would arise, D.14-06-051 specifically ordered that this filing be a “stand- alone general rate case filing (separate and apart from Golden State’s regular company-wide general rate case filing)”5. (Emphasis added). GSWC was ordered not to include anything related to its initial Sutter Pointe GRC in its “regular company-wide general rate case filing”. 3. The event occurred before the utility's next scheduled rate case. GSWC is near the end of its company-wide GRC, A.20-07-012, establishing rates for 2022, 2023 and 2024. On November 23, 2021, GSWC filed a Motion to Adopt the Settlement Agreement with the Commission. Its next GRC will not be filed until 2023. GSWC needs to start the preparation of the Sutter Pointe GRC in order to file the Proposed Application in this matter in the first half of 2022. The next Sutter Pointe GRC will be filed as part of GSWC’s 2023 company-wide general rate case filing. 4. The event is of a substantial nature in that the amount of money involved is worth the effort of processing a memo account. D.14-06-051 established and ordered that GSWC must file a detailed general rate case filing using its first year of service as the proposed test year, which includes full documentation and justifications of all of the underlying sources of data and assumptions it relies on in order to develop its initial general rate case for filing, as a detailed stand-alone general rate case filing (separate and apart from GSWC’s regular company-wide general rate case filing) and comply with the requirements set forth in D. 07-05-062.6 5 D.14-06-051 Conclusions of Law 20; Ordering Paragraph No. 9 6 D.14-06-051 Conclusions of Law 20, 21; Ordering Paragraph Nos 9,10 and 12 Advice Letter No. 1867-W -4- December 6, 2021 The Commission was clear that this filing must be complete and well supported. As stated in Decision 07-05-062 “[t]he utility bears the burden of proving that its proposed rate increase is justified and must include in the proposed application and supporting testimony, all information and analysis necessary to meet this burden.”7 The filing will be a complete GRC with testimony, work papers, supporting documentation and “Minimum Data Requirements” in compliance with D. 07-05-062. After the Application is submitted to the Commission, GSWC will be required to respond to an unknown amount of data requests. In addition, given that the Public Advocates Office (formerly DRA) did not join the settlement in GWC’s Application 08-08-022, which resulted in D. 14-06-051, there is a strong likelihood that hearings will be required. GSWC believes that the dollars involved could exceed $800,000 and are of a substantial nature that the amount of money involved is worth the effort of processing a memorandum account. GSWC will require the use of consulting and legal services for this filing. 5. The Memorandum Account has ratepayer benefits. GSWC diligently and proactively worked with the Sutter County officials, elected leaders, community members as well as Natomas to ensure that four key local objectives are met: protection and preservation of the local agricultural economy; provision of the best possible M&I service within the Natomas service area; enhancement of regional job creation efforts and respect to taxpayers; and a proven commitment to Sutter County. In D.14-06-051, the Commission considered the community values in evaluating GSWC’s Application. The Commission concluded the Proposed Project is, indeed, consistent with community values, will not adversely affect recreational and park areas, is consistent with historical uses of the Project Site and community aesthetic values, and will not have a significant adverse influence on the environment.8 The Commission has determined that it is in the benefit of the ratepayers for GSWC to provide water service to the customers in the unincorporated portion of Sutter County, within a new South Sutter County Service Area. 7 D.07-05-062 page A-6 8 D.14-06-051 pp 6, 103; Finding of Fact 17, Conclusion of Law 2. Advice Letter No. 1867-W -5- December 6, 2021 MEMORANDUM ACCOUNT TREATMENT GSWC is aware that a memorandum account is not a guarantee of eventual recovery of expenses, nor is it carried as a regular account under the uniform system of accounts for water utilities. It is carried "off the books" as a memorandum account. Further, it is also known that Commission policy on memorandum account treatment has always been that the burden of proof of the reasonableness of expenses charged to the account is the responsibility of the utility requesting reimbursement of such expenses. REVISIONS TO PRELIMINARY STATEMENT GSWC proposes to revise its Preliminary Statement to include Part PPPP, Sutter Pointe General Rate Case Memorandum Account (SPGRCMA). The purpose of the SPGRCMA is to record expenses for the preparation, filing and processing of the initial Sutter Pointe stand-alone General Rate Case Application. These expenses include, but are not limited to, legal expenses, consulting costs and noticing costs. COMMISSION STANDARD PRACTICE U-27 The following excerpts are from the Commission’s Standard Practice U-27: -6. Memorandum (Memo) Account. A memo account is an accounting device that, after approval by the Commission or upon statutory notice, may be used by a utility to record various expenses it incurs. The utility may later seek authorization from the Commission to recover the recorded amounts by passing them on to consumers in rates. The establishment of a memo account does not guarantee that the utility will recoup the tracked amount, but a utility is precluded from recovering amounts not booked to a memo account. Memo accounts allow the Commission to consider recovery of utility expenses that have occurred in the past without incurring retroactive ratemaking.2 Footnote 2 The retroactive ratemaking doctrine prohibits the Commission from authorizing or requiring a utility to adjust current rates to make up for past errors in projections. If a utility includes an estimate of certain costs in its rates and subsequently finds out that the estimate was too low, it cannot adjust future rates to "recoup past losses." City of Piqua v. FERC, 610 F.2d 950, 954 (D.C. Cir. 1979) (quoting Nader v. FCC, 520 F.2d 182, 202 (D.C. Cir. 1975)). -26. A memo account is not recorded in the utility’s accounting books; it represents an off-book accounting record. Trackable costs are recorded in the memo account, and they are also recorded in the accounting records normally, in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts. For example, costs normally expensed would continue to be expensed in the accounting records even though a memo account is set up to track these costs for potential future recovery. Memo accounts track a) expenses, b) the carrying cost and depreciation on capital investments, and c) offsetting revenues, such as insurance proceeds, from the effective date of the account. -27. Memo accounts may be requested by a Tier 2 advice letter. In order to qualify for mem o account treatment, the costs must be due to events of an exceptional nature that:21 a. are not under the utility’s control, Advice Letter No. 1867-W -6- December 6, 2021 b. could not have been reasonably foreseen in the utility’s last general rate case, c. and that will occur before the utility’s next scheduled rate case,22 d. are of a substantial nature such that the amount of money involved is worth the effort of processing a memo account and e. have ratepayer benefits.23 Footnote 21 For example, a memo account to book legal costs to fight a takeover by a potentially incompetent entity might have ratepayer benefits, but a memo account to book legal costs to fight a takeover by a competent water district would not. -36. A Tier 2 advice letter requesting the establishment of a memorandum account does not have to be noticed because there is no change in rates. The notice will be required when the utility requests recovery of the memorandum account. The request in this advice letter is consistent with the aforementioned Commission directives found in Standard Practice U-27. TARIFF CHANGES This advice letter will not increase any rate or charge, cause the withdrawal of service, or conflict with any other schedule, or rule. TIER DESIGNATION This advice letter has a Tier 2 designation. EFFECTIVE DATE GSWC is requesting this advice letter become effective on the date this advice letter is filed. CUSTOMER NOTICE Pursuant to Water Industry Rule No. 3.2 in the Commission’s General Order 96-B, this advice letter does not require a customer notice nor a customer notice verification. However, a customer notice will be required when GSWC requests recovery of this memorandum account. RESPONSE OR PROTEST Anyone may submit a response or protest for this Advice Letter (AL). When submitting a response or protest, please include the utility name and advice letter number in the subject line. A response supports the filing and may contain information that proves useful to the Commission in evaluating the AL. A protest objects to the AL in whole or in part and must set forth the specific grounds on which it is based. These grounds are: 1. The utility did not properly serve or give notice of the AL; Advice Letter No. 1867-W -7- December 6, 2021 2. The relief requested in the AL would violate statute or Commission order, or is not authorized by statute or Commission order on which the utility relies; 3. The analysis, calculations, or data in the AL contain material error or omissions; 4. The relief requested in the AL is pending before the Commission in a formal proceeding; or 5. The relief requested in the AL requires consideration in a formal hearing, or is otherwise inappropriate for the AL process; or 6. The relief requested in the AL is unjust, unreasonable, or discriminatory, provided that such a protest may not be made where it would require re-litigating a prior order of the Commission. A protest may not rely on policy objections to an AL where the relief requested in the AL follows rules or directions established by statute or Commission order applicable to the utility. A protest shall provide citations or proofs where available to allow staff to properly consider the protest. Water Division (WD) must receive a response or protest via email (or postal mail) within 20 days of the date the AL is filed. When submitting a response or protest, please include the utility name and advice letter number in the subject line.
