issue is now a legal issue, pending at the Commonwealth Court in the appeal the OCA’s May 22nd Order. However, since there are no additional and non-tax fact issues raised in current protest against the UGI-CPG DSIC filing, we will abide by previous OCA’s resolution in the May 22nd Order and not refer the ADIT issue or the calculation of the state tax component of the DSIC revenue requirement to the OALJ for disposition. However, we will refer the issue related to the inclusion of OCA’s gathering lines and storage lines as DSIC-eligible property to the OALJ for further disposition. To the extent that UGI-CPG may be permitted to implement a DSIC pending the OALJ proceeding and chooses to do so while this matter is pending in the OALJ, the DSIC recovery shall be subject to recoupment and refund after final resolution. (d) Quarterly Updates UGI-CPG’s Petition A DSIC is subject to quarterly updates to reflect eligible plant utility’s additions placed in service during the three-month period ending one month prior to the effective date of any DSIC update. The Proposed Tariff includes a chart of the effective dates of UGI-CPG’s proposed DSIC updates, and the corresponding period for eligible plant additions that will be reflected in each update. The Company states that once its DSIC is implemented, customers will receive notice of quarterly changes in the DSIC through bill messages, consistent with Act 11 and the Final Implementation Order. Comments OCA has taken issue with the fact that, in its initial non-zero DSIC rate effective April 1, 2015, UGI-CPG has proposed to recover qualifying plant investment placed into service during the period of December 1, 2013 through November 30, 2014,
