Case ID: GNR-W-24-01
Comment: "Questions:
1 - If Valiant/TIC Utilities gets regulated by the IPUC, what is the process for them requesting a rate
increase? I'm particularly interested in what documents must be presented and if they are open to the
public?
2 -Who is currently responsible for making sure the water is potable for consumption and will this
change if the company is regulated by the IPUC?
3 - In the CPCN form overview, it describes the Presumption of Contributed Capital, does this
allow/disallow TIC Utilities from setting rates based on past investments into the water system? Just
curious what costs will be allowed when requesting a rate change?
4- Is there a document or web site that explains all the ramifications of a water system being regulated
by the IPUC?
5 - Does the IPUC only regulate water companies that are for profit?
Thank you!"
