This represents an increase of approximately 16% over the currently allowed overall revenues, and approximately 50% over currently allowed distribution revenues. According to the Application, revenues for the remainder of the four-year term would be calculated within the annual Rate Adjustment Mechanism (RAM) proceeding.
