FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- JULY 11, 2008
JEFFERSON CITY—The Missouri Public Service Commission will hold formal evidentiary hearings August 13-14, 2008, in a sewer case filed by Stoddard County Sewer Company, Inc. (Stoddard County), R.D. Sewer Co., L.L.C. (R.D. Sewer) and the PSC staff. The joint applicants seek commission authority for the transfer of Stoddard County’s assets to R.D. Sewer. The joint application also seeks an interim sewer rate increase.
Residential customers currently pay $11.40 a month for sewer service. As part of this application, R.D. Sewer seeks interim rate relief which would increase that flat monthly sewer bill to $22.80.
