EL11-010     In the Matter of the Filing by Otter Tail Power Company for Approval of Tariff Revisions

On May 12, 2011, the Commission received an application by Otter Tail Power Company for approval to revise Section 16.00, Sheet No. 4. This revised sheet is the second revision to Sheet No. 4 of Otter Tail's summary list of contracts with deviations. The municipal service agreement between Otter Tail and the City of Ward, S.D., referenced on the current Summary List of Contracts with Deviations has expired and there is a new agreement for municipal services as of May 1, 2011. Electric service provided by Otter Tail to the City of Ward is at Commission approved tariff rates and therefore a contract with deviations no longer exists with the City of Ward. The contract has been removed from the list as shown on the attached Section 16.00, Second Revised Sheet No. 4 Canceling First Revised Sheet No. 4.
