# §175.215. What is BIA's procedure for adjusting electric power rates?


Except for purchased power costs, if we determine electric power rates need to be adjusted, we will:

- (a) Hold public meetings and notify you of their respective time, date, and location by newspaper notice and a notice posted in the utility office serving you;
- (b) Provide you notice at least 15 days prior to the meeting;
- (c) Provide you a description of the proposed rate adjustment;
- (d) Provide you information on how, where, and when to submit comments on our proposed rate adjustment;
- (e) Make a final determination on the proposed rate adjustment after all comments have been received, reviewed, and evaluated; and
- (f) Publish the proposed rate adjustment and the final rate in the Federal Register if we determine the rate adjustment is necessary.
