Simplified Rate Case (SRC) Application

Simplified Rate Case (SRC) Application

The Simplified Rate Case (SRC) is a simple and convenient means for municipal utilities to increase water rates. This is an inflationary type increase that helps utilities maintain rate continuity so that customers benefit from smaller, more frequent rate increases. The SRC process includes a SRC application and a notice to customers, but does not require a public hearing. This process is further explained in the instructions below. Please review the entire SRC Application Instructions below before proceeding.

SRC Application Instructions

If the utility has any questions about the SRC process, please call (608) 266-3766 or email PSCWaterAppMail@wisconsin.gov

As of March 1 2025, the rate increase factor is 3.0 percent, and the current overall rate of return is 6.2 percent. (PSC ERF#: 531793)

Please note that the application is not filed, and thus rates cannot be implemented, until the utility uploads the PDF application to the PSC’s Electronic Records Filing (ERF) System and the PSC issues a final decision.
