ORDER NO. PSC -2018 -0050 -TRF -EI <br />DOCKET NO. 20170148 -EI <br />PAGE 4 <br />the company's assertion that day-to-day reliability improves with underground facilities .6 <br />However, FPL also acknowledged that locating the cause/failure of an overhead outage and the <br />repair/replacement of overhead facilities is generally less difficult and less time consuming than <br />it is for underground. Therefore, in some instances, the duration of an outage may be longer as a <br />result of underground facilities. <br />We have previously recognized the benefits of undergrounding. In 2007, we amended <br />Rule 25-6.115, F.A.C., to include in the CIAC calculation the cost of maintenance and storm <br />restoration activities over time to capture the longer-term costs and benefits of undergrounding. <br />Prior to this rule amendment, the CIAC was based on estimated work order cost only. <br />Furthermore, we have approved a Governmental Adjustment Factor (GAF) tariff that <br />allows local governments a 25 percent credit against the otherwise applicable CIAC for projects <br />which convert overhead facilities to underground. The 25 percent reduction in CIAC is based on <br />expected savings in storm restoration costs when large contiguous areas are converted from <br />overhead to underground and is designed to encourage the installation of underground facilities <br />by reducing the CIAC the customer is required to pay FPL. We approved the GAF tariff as a <br />pilot in May 2007 and it became a permanent tariff in April 2010.7 The six municipalities that <br />are currently in discussion with FPL regarding a conversion project all qualify for the GAF <br />Waiver of 25 percent and the GAF waiver amounts have been reflected in the provided estimated <br />CIAC amounts. <br />For the reasons stated above we hereby approve FPL's proposed revision to tariff Sheet <br />No. 6.300 as stated in Attachment A, and FPL's request to include the waived existing facilities <br />cost in net plant in service. We also hereby require FPL to inform future potential underground <br />conversion customers of the availability of additional credits. FPL has already informed the <br />municipalities currently considering conversion projects of this possibility. <br />Based on the foregoing, it is <br />ORDERED by the Florida Public Service Commission that Florida Power & Light <br />Company's Petition for Detennination Under Rule 25-6.115, F.A.C., and Approval of <br />Associated Revised Tariff Sheet 6.300 is hereby approved. It is further <br />ORDERED that if a protest is filed within 21 days of the issuance of this order, Revised <br />Tariff Sheet 6.300, as stated on Attachment A, shall not go into effect pending resolution of the <br />protest. If no timely protest is filed, this docket shall be closed and Revised Tariff Sheet 6.300, <br />as stated on Attachment A, shall become effective upon the issuance of a consummating order. <br />6 Staff's Second Data Request, response to Question 8 <br />7 Order No. PSC-10-0247-FOF-EI, issued April 22, 2010, in Docket No. 070231 -EI, In re: Petition for approval of <br />2007 revisions to underground residential and commercial distribution tariffs, by Florida Power & Light Company. <br />
