The commission shall issue a decision resolving issue(s) presented in a complaint filed pursuant to this rule within a reasonable time not to exceed three hundred sixty days after the filing of the complaint.(B) In complaint proceedings challenging the rates, terms, and conditions of existing joint use agreements between public utilities, there is a presumption that such rates, terms, and conditions are just and reasonable.
