TALLAHASSEE - Following its Internal Affairs (IA) meeting, the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC) will begin a hearing on Wednesday, August 21, to consider Duke Energy Florida, LLC's (DEF) rate case Settlement Agreement. On July 15, DEF and the Office of Public Counsel-representing customers-filed a Settlement Agreement resolving all issues in DEF's petition for a rate increase. Several intervenors in the case also signed the Settlement, and the remaining parties do not oppose the Settlement or took no position.

DEF provides electric service to two million customers in 35 Florida counties. The hearing is scheduled to begin at the following time and location:
