JEFFERSON CITY -- Public Counsel Lewis Mills Jr. won a victory last week before the Missouri Public Service Commission that might help illuminate the dark corners of AmerenUE's plan to build a second nuclear-powered electricity-generating unit in Callaway County.
Mills, who represents the public in rate cases before the PSC, won approval on a 4-1 vote to compel the St. Louis-based utility to turn over its financial analysis for the new plant, which could cost anywhere from $6 billion to $9 billion. Up until now, lawmakers, regulators and consumer advocates have complained there wasn't enough information available to judge AmerenUE's plan.

JEFFERSON CITY (AP) -- Customers of Missouri's largest electricity provider appear likely to see a rate increase. The question is how much more they will pay.
State utility regulators began hearing testimony yesterday on a rate increase sought by St. Louis-based AmerenUE, whose 1.2 million customers are located largely in eastern and Central Missouri.

AmerenUE filed a $402 million rate increase request with the Missouri Public Service Commission yesterday, saying it needed more money to cover higher fuel costs and to make service more reliable.
The proposed rate increase of 18 percent would raise the charge for an average household by less than $15 a month. The utility calibrates an average household as one that uses about 1,100 kilowatt hours of electricity per month.
