PSC 133.07(2m)(a)2. 2. The area to be served by the additional gas utility is adjacent to a municipality where the additional gas public utility is already authorized to serve.
PSC 133.07(2m)(a)3. 3. The additional gas public utility will provide service to 5 or fewer additional customers in the municipality.
PSC 133.07(2m)(a)4. 4. None of the additional customers to be served are located more than ½ mile from an existing service territory boundary between the original and the additional gas public utility.
PSC 133.07(2m)(b) (b) A gas public utility may not amend a limited territorial agreement. To expand the territory covered by a limited territorial agreement the utilities shall do one of the following:
PSC 133.07(2m)(b)1. 1. If the additional territory meets the requirements of par. (a), then enter into a new limited territorial agreement covering the additional territory and file it under sub. (1m) (d).
PSC 133.07(2m)(b)2. 2. If the additional territory does not meet the requirements of par. (a), then enter into a general territorial agreement covering the additional territory and file a request for approval under sub. (1m) (c).
PSC 133.07 Note Note: For example: if 2 utilities have an existing limited territorial agreement that covers a portion of their original service territory boundary and want to have an agreement that covers a different portion of their original service territory boundary, they may enter into a new limited territorial agreement that covers the new territory.
PSC 133.07 Note But, for example, if the existing limited territorial agreement covers a ½ mile wide strip east of their original service territory boundary and they want to have an agreement that covers a ½ mile strip that is east of the new service territory boundary created by the existing limited territorial agreement, they must enter into a general territorial agreement to cover the additional strip.
