Item 8.01. Other Events
On May 19, 2017, Vectren Energy Delivery of Indiana - South (Vectren), announced that, along with the Indiana Office of the Utility Consumer Counselor (OUCC) and a coalition of industrial customers, a settlement had been reached regarding Vectren’s seven-year improvement plan to enhance reliability and modernize its electric infrastructure, which was filed in February of 2017. The settlement agreement was filed yesterday with the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC) and completes a collaborative effort among Vectren, the industrial group and the OUCC. The IURC is expected to rule on the settlement no later than September. The original plan featured more than 800 projects and was estimated to cost $514 million over the plan’s seven-year period. The settlement agreement reduces the plan spend to $446 million. The majority of the $68 million reduction relates to the removal of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI or digital meters) from this plan. However, deferral of the costs for AMI was agreed upon in the settlement whereby the company can move forward with deployment in the near-term. In removing it from the plan, the request for cost recovery for the project will not occur until the next base rate review proceeding, which will begin in 2023. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Vectren Corporation (the Company) is hereby furnishing cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results of the Company and its subsidiaries, including Vectren Utility Holdings, Inc., to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements of the Company and its subsidiaries made by, or on behalf of, the Company and its subsidiaries. These cautionary statements are attached as Exhibit 99.2.
