Concurrent with the submission of each report under section 97, 1 the commission shall commence an annual proceeding, to be known as an energy waste reduction cost reconciliation, for each provider whose rates are regulated by the commission. The energy waste reduction cost reconciliation shall be conducted as a contested case pursuant to the administrative procedures act of 1969, 1969 PA 306, MCL 24.201 to 24.328. Reasonable discovery shall be permitted before and during the energy waste reduction cost reconciliation to assist in obtaining evidence concerning reconciliation issues including, but not limited to, the reasonableness and prudence of expenditures and the amounts collected pursuant to energy waste reduction charges set by the commission.
(2) At the energy waste reduction cost reconciliation, a provider may propose any necessary modifications of the energy waste reduction charges previously set by the commission to ensure the provider's recovery of its costs to comply with the energy waste reduction standards.
(3) The commission shall reconcile the pertinent revenues recorded with the amounts actually expensed and projected according to the provider's plan for compliance. The commission shall consider any issue regarding the reasonableness and prudence of expenses for which customers were charged in the relevant reconciliation period.
