The Commission shall establish a docket to investigate Martin District, its manager, and its Board of Commissioners for alleged violation of KRS 278.300. 3. On or before August 31, 2026, Martin District shall file an application for a general rate adjustment pursuant to Section 16 of 807 KAR 5:001, an application for an alternative rate adjustment pursuant to 807 KAR 5:076, or in the alternative, a formal motion with a detailed analysis of its rates and revenues explaining the reasons why no modifications are necessary.
