(a) The return to rates under OAR 860-038-0250 and 860-038-0280 for an individual or group of New Large Load Direct Access Program participants will result in a significant increase to existing cost-of-service rate; or
(b) The return to a cost-of-service rate for an individual or group of New Large Load Direct Access Program participants will result in a significant increase to existing cost of service rate.
(4) The Commission will consider the rate adder under Section (3) of this rule as part of a tariff filing.
(5) The electric company must file annual tariff updates that justify any rate adder developed according to this rule or any updates to the approved rate adder.
