N.M. Admin. Code § 17.1.210.12 - SPECIAL PROVISIONS

A. Public Inspection of Rates, Rules, or Forms--Posting Notice: Each public utility shall maintain a notice posted in a conspicuous location at each of its New Mexico business offices stating that its complete schedules are open to public inspection at its main and outlying business offices, at the office serving the particular territory in which the customer receives service, and at the offices of the New Mexico Public Service Commission [New Mexico Public Regulation Commission]. The notice shall give the location of such offices.

B. Effect of Rates, Rules, or Forms on Contracts: All contracts and agreements made between a public utility and its customers covering service rendered or to be rendered shall contain substantially the following provision: "This contract, including the attached rate schedule, shall at all times be subject to change or modification by order of the New Mexico Public Service Commission [New Mexico Public Regulation Commission]. You will receive notice in accordance with the Commission's requirements when we are requesting the Commission to take action which could cause a change in the terms of this contract."

C. Contracts--Filing: All special contracts dealing with Rates, Rules, or Forms shall be maintained by the utility and made available to Commission staff upon request. However, this provision shall not relieve a utility from the duty of filing rates concisely setting forth the terms and conditions applicable to any service rendered under such special contract.

D. Filing Fee: Every new or changed Rate, Rule, or Form submitted for filing shall be accompanied by a filing fee of one dollar ($1.00) for each proposed Rate, Rule, or Form. Tables of Contents may be submitted for filing without fee. No filing governed by NMPSC Rule 210 [17.1.210 NMAC] is complete unless accompanied by its filing fee.

E. Effect of NMPSC Rule 210 [17.1.210 NMAC]: NMPSC Rule 210 [17.1.10 NMAC] and NMPSC Rule 110.40 [17.1.2.53 NMAC] shall be construed as consistent with each other to the extent possible. In the event of any inconsistencies NMPSC Rule 110.40 [17.1.2.53 NMAC] shall govern.
