III. Notice and Protests

Notice of the filing appeared on the Commission's Daily Calendar of November 12, 2010. Rule 1.9 of the Rules of Practice and Procedure requires that a copy of the document be served on each person whose name is on the official service list for the proceeding. On November 10, 2010, Cal-Ore served its Application on the service list attached to the Application. Cal-Ore claims that there have been no customers or other interested parties that have expressed interest in receiving copies of any application that Cal-Ore files with the Commission.

Cal-Ore has met the Commission's notice and service requirements. Rule 3.2 of the Rules of Practice and Procedure requires applicants for authority to increase rates to notify certain State, County and City agencies of the fact and publish in a newspaper of general circulation the proposed rate increases. This financing Application does not increase any rates or charges nor does it reduce or cut any services.

No protests were received and no person filed to become a party to this proceeding.
