ORDER SUSPENDING TARIFF
BY THE COMMISSION:
Background
On 	July 	1, 2026, 	Peoples Gas 	System, 	Inc. 	(Peoples) 	filed a 	petition 	to implement 	its
2027 Subsequent Year Adjustment (SYA) pursuant 	to 	its 2025 	rate case Settlement Agreement
(settlement). We previously approved the 	settlement in Order No. PSC-2025-0413-S-GU (2025
Order). 1The SYA provisions of the 	settlement and 2025 Order provide 	for an increase 	in base
rates and charges 	to reflect the 2027 SYA amount of $25 million, effective with the 	first billing
cycle of January 2027. 2 In 	this 	petition, 	Peoples’ 	proposed 	tariffs implement 	the 	$25 	million
SYA using the cost recovery revenue allocation of the settlement and the billing determinants for
2027 that the company will use to develop 	its cost recovery clause and rider factors. 3
This 	order 	is 	to 	suspend 	the proposed 	tariffs. We have 	jurisdiction 	over 	this 	matter
pursuant to Sections 366.03, 366.04, 366.05, and 366.06, Florida Statutes (F.S.).
Decision
The proposed 	tariffs 	shall be 	suspended 	to allow Commission 	staff 	sufficient 	time 	to
review the 	petition and gather 	all pertinent information 	in order to present us with an informed
recommendation on 	the 	tariff proposals. Pursuant 	to Section 366.06(3), 	F.S., we may withhold
consent 	to 	the 	operation of all 	or any portion of a new 	rate 	schedule, 	delivering 	to 	the 	utility
requesting 	such a change 	a reason 	or written 	statement of good cause 	for doing 	so within 60
