On July 25, 2014, Union Electric Company d/b/a Ameren Missouri (“Ameren Missouri”) submitted a tariff sheet (Tracking No. YE-2015-0026) designed to implement an adjustment to its Fuel and Purchased Power Adjustment Clause for the accumulation period ending May 31, 2014. The tariff sheet bears an effective date of September 24, 2014; the start of Ameren Missouri’s October billing month. 

Commission Rule 4 CSR 240-20.090(4), directs the Commission’s Staff to submit a recommendation regarding the proposed adjustment no later than 30 days after the tariff’s filing. Consequently, the Commission shall issue notice, set an intervention deadline, and direct its Staff to file a recommendation. Since Commission Rule 4 CSR 240-3.161(10) provides that parties to the rate case in which the Commission established Ameren Missouri’s fuel adjustment clause are automatically parties to this tariff case, the Commission will acknowledges parties to File Nos. ER-2011-0028 and ER‑2012‑0166 as parties to this case. The Commission will direct its Data Center to add those parties to the service list. 

THE COMMISSION ORDERS THAT:

1.               The Commission’s Data Center shall serve a copy of this order upon the county commission of each county within Ameren Missouri’s service area.

2.               The Commission’s Data Center shall add all parties to File Nos. ER-2011-0028 and ER‑2012‑0166 to the service list for this case.

3.               The Commission’s Public Information Office shall make notice of this order available to the members of the General Assembly representing Ameren Missouri’s service area and to the news media serving Ameren Missouri’s service area.

4.               Any proper person or entity wishing to intervene shall file an application to intervene no later than August 8, 2014, in the Commission’s Electronic Filing Information System (“EFIS”).

5.               No later than August 24, 2014, the Staff of the Missouri Public Service Commission shall file a recommendation regarding its examination and analysis of Ameren Missouri’s tariff filing.

6.               This order shall become effective upon issuance.
