Summary
Rural Water Company, Inc., is granted a certificate of public convenience and necessity to provide sewer service to the Cypress Ridge subdivision in San Luis Obispo County. Cypress Ridge Service Company's application for a certificate to serve the same area and for related relief is dismissed. The authority granted Rural is subject to a series of conditions, most of which were agreed to by all of the parties. Rates for Rural's new service are based on test year 2005. Rural is authorized to file rates for any new commercial customer types as they are needed, provided that rates for other customers are to be adjusted at the same time to achieve a zero net revenue effect. Rural is not required to charge the Cypress Ridge golf course for receiving effluent from the sewage treatment plant. The consolidated proceeding is closed.
