The
Commission has established an expedited procedural schedule to consider the complaint
brought by Noranda Aluminum and multiple other customers seeking to reduce the
rate Ameren Missouri charges its Large Transmission Service customer. The order that established that procedural
schedule states that the response time for all data requests shall be ten
calendar days, with five calendar days to object. On April 17, 2014, the Staff of the
Commission filed a motion asking the Commission to shorten the response times
for data requests to five business days to respond and three business days to
object. Staff’s motion represents that
counsel for each party has been consulted and that none object to Staff’s
motion.
The
Commission finds that Staff’s motion is reasonable and is not opposed by any
party. The Commission will grant that
motion.
THE COMMISSION
ORDERS THAT:
1. Staff’s Motion to Shorten Time to Respond to Discovery is granted.
2. The response time for all data requests shall be five business days, with three business days to object or notify the requesting party that more than five business days will be needed to provide the requested information.
3. 3. This order shall become effective upon issuance.
