Sec. 7. The commission may:
(1) on its own motion;
(2) at the request of the utility consumer counselor;
(3) at the request of the affected energy utility; or
(4) at the request of any class satisfying the standing requirements of IC 8-1-2-54;
enter an order notifying an energy utility subject to an alternative regulatory plan or over which jurisdiction was either limited or not exercised under this chapter that the commission will proceed to terminate the plan, or any part thereof, or exercise jurisdiction over the energy utility or its retail energy service to the extent the public interest requires, unless a formal request for a hearing is filed by the energy utility with the commission not more than fifteen (15) days after the date of the order. In the event that such a formal request is timely filed, the commission shall hold a hearing concerning such matters and issue its order thereon based upon the evidence introduced at the hearing. However, if the commission has declined jurisdiction in whole or in part or approved an alternative regulatory plan under this chapter for a fixed term of years, such jurisdiction may be reimposed or the plan, or any part of the plan, may be terminated before expiration of the term only if material and irreparable harm to the energy utility, the energy utility's customers, the state, or the safety of the energy utility's workforce has been established.
