ORDER DIRECTING FILING

 

Issue Date:  May 1, 2015                                             Effective Date:  May 1, 2015

 

The Commission is directing Staff to file a response to the applicants’ motion for reconsideration (“motion”).[1]

The motion addresses the Commission order (“order”)[2] that granted Staff’s motion for an extension of time to file its recommendation.[3] The order granted that relief based on Staff’s representations that the recommendation required certain information. That information is irrelevant, and the extension risks the applicants’ financing,[4] the motion argues.

The motion asks to reduce or eliminate the extension. To eliminate the extension may be impractical because the original due date was Monday May 4, this order is issuing on Friday May 1. Nevertheless, the Commission desires Staff’s response to the motion, so the Commission will direct Staff to file a response to the motion on an expedited basis.

THE COMMISSION ORDERS THAT:

1.     The response described in the body of this order is due on May 5, 2015.

2.     This order shall become effective immediately upon issuance.
