Order Entered: 1. A hearing in this matter shall be held on Tuesday, September 1, 2020, at 9 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time, in the Richard Raff Hearing Room (Hearing Room 1) at the offices of the Public Service Commission at 211 Sower Boulevard, Frankfort, Kentucky, to take evidence regarding the transfer of assets from Southern Water and Sewer District (Southern District) to Prestonsburg City Utilities Commission (PCUC). 2. Southern District Board Chairman Jeff Prater shall appear in person at the September 1, 2020 hearing to provide testimony on behalf of Southern District. 3. PCUC Superintendent Brian Music shall appear in person at the September 1, 2020 hearing to provide testimony on behalf of PCUC. 4. Additional witnesses may be identified in a future Order to provide testimony regarding the transfer of assets. 5. Commission regulation 807 KAR 5:001, Section 22, provides that, upon showing of good cause, the Commission may permit deviations from its administrative regulations. The expedited nature of this hearing to take evidence on the issues of the asset transfer is good cause to deviate from the publication frequency requirements of 807 KAR 5:001, Section 9(2)(b). The Commission finds that Southern District should make a good faith effort to give notice of the hearing to the public, including publication by means of posting on a website or social media account.
