Order Entered: 1. Atmos’s petition for confidential treatment is denied. 2. The designated material denied confidential treatment by this Order is not exempt from public disclosure and shall be placed in the public record and made available for public inspection. 3. If Atmos objects to the Commission's determination that the requested material not be granted confidential treatment, it must seek either rehearing pursuant to KRS 278.400 or judicial review of this Order pursuant to KRS 278.410. Failure to exercise either of these statutory rights will be deemed as agreement with the Commission's determination of which materials should be granted confidential treatment. 4.

The designated material for which Atmos’s request for confidential treatment has been denied shall neither be placed in the public record nor made available for inspection for 30 days from the date of service of this Order in order to allow Atmos’s to seek a remedy afforded by law.

Final Order Entered: 1. The special contract between Atmos and Matalco is approved effective November 1, 2022.4° 2.

By March 31 of each year, Atmos shall file an annual report with the Commission detailing, for the prior calendar year, revenues received from Matalco and the marginal costs associated with serving Matalco throughout the term of the special contract. 4. During any rate proceedings filed by Atmos subsequent to the effective date of the special contract with Matalco, and during a period when Atmos still has an active EDR contract, Atmos shall demonstrate through a detailed cost-of-service analysis that its non-EDR ratepayers are not adversely affected by the EDR rate to Matalco and any other EDR customers that may be on the Atmos system at that time. 5. Atmos shall file by March 31 of each year a report with the Commission providing, for the prior calendar year, the information shown in the Appendix to this Order. 6.
