Haw. Code R. § 16-601-85 - General provisions

(a) In order for the commission to schedule its future workload requirements in an efficient manner, every public utility and water carrier shall file with the commission a notice of intent to file a general rate increase not less than two months before filing its application or notice of increase, except that the foregoing does not apply to a public utility with annual gross utility operating revenues under $2,000,000. The carrier or applicant shall serve a copy of the notice of intent on the consumer advocate and the mayor of each county affected by the proposed rate increase. Proof of service must be filed with the notice of intent. The filing of a notice of intent does not set any hearing scheduling priorities for the public utility or water carrier that files the notice.

(b) This subchapter does not apply to changes pursuant to an automatic rate adjustment clause.
