ORDER NO. PSC -2019 -0360 -TRF -EI <br />DOCKET NO. 20190081 -El <br />PAGE 5 <br />Storm Restoration Costs <br />FPL explained that the 2016 and 2017 hurricane season significantly increased the <br />avoided storm restoration,cost impacts. Specifically, FPL stated that the utility incorporated more <br />than $1.5 billion in overhead storm restoration costs for hurricanes Matthew, Hermine, and Irma. <br />Therefore, the amount representing avoided storm restoration costs increased significantly from <br />2016. <br />Table 3 presents the pre -operational, non -storm operational, and the avoided storm <br />restoration cost differentials between overhead and underground' systems. The proposed <br />differential is $0 when the calculation results in a negative number. <br />Table 3 <br />Components of the URD Charles <br />Source: FPL's 2019 Filing <br />A review of FPL's proposed URD tariffs and associated charges, its accompanying work <br />papers, and its responses to Commission staff's data requests supporta finding that the proposed <br />URD tariffs and associated charges are reasonable. We approve FPL's request that the URD <br />tariffs and associated charges be made effective 30 days with an effective date of September 5, <br />2019. <br />Underground Commercial Differential Tariffs <br />Utilities are not required to file UCD tariffs pursuant to Rule 25-6.078, F.A.C.; however, <br />as in prior URD petitions, FPL included proposed UCD tariffs in its petition.
