On
February 3, 2010, Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation (“Central
Hudson”) issued a press release announcing that Central Hudson, the Staff of the
New York State Public Service Commission and Multiple Interveners (a consortium
representing large industrial users) have reached an agreement and filed a
proposal on a multi-year rate plan that, if approved by the New York State
Public Service Commission (“NYPSC”), would phase in increased electricity and
natural gas delivery rates for Central Hudson’s customers during the three years
commencing as of July 1, 2010. The NYPSC’s Administrative Law Judge
has directed that hearings be held in late February 2010 to consider the
reasonableness of the agreement and to permit evidence to be offered in support
of, or in opposition to, the agreement. The NYPSC will subsequently
decide, by June 2010, whether to approve the agreement. The press
release issued by Central Hudson is attached hereto as Exhibit 99 and
incorporated herein by reference.
