Dear Community Leader:
On August 2, 2017, CenterPoint Energy filed a request with the Minnesota Public Utilities
Commission (MPUC) for an increase in natural gas rates of$56.5 million or approximately 6.4
percent per year. On September 29, 2017, the MPUC accepted our filing as complete and approved
an interim (temporary) rate increase of$47.8 million or about 5. 4 percent more than current rates.
This interim rate increase for CenterPoint Energy customers takes effect October 1, 2017, and
continues until the MPUC issues a final order and the company implements new rates in the summer
of 2018.
State law requires us to distribute a Notice of Application for Rate Increase and Notice of and Order
for Hearing to all counties and municipalities in our service area (enclosed). We will send you the
public hearing notices with details of the public hearing dates, times, and locations once they are
scheduled. That information will also be advertised in the newspaper of record for each county seat
in our service area and in the communities where hearings are to be held.
If you have questions or comments, please contact me or visit our Web site at
www.CenterPointEnergy.com/RateCase.
Sincerely,
CenterPoint Energy

Plymouth to participate in National Drug Take Back Day Oct. 28
Plymouth, Minn. – The Plymouth Public Safety Department is set to participate in National Prescription
Drug Take Back Day Saturday, Oct. 28.
A drop box provided by the Drug Enforcement Administration will be available from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Oct. 28 in the lobby of the Plymouth Public Safety Building, 3400 Plymouth Blvd. Residents are
encouraged to bring in their unused medications for proper disposal during this event.
An officer will be stationed in the lobby to monitor drop offs and answer questions from residents.
The DEA cannot accept liquids or needles or sharps – only pills or patches. Bring medications in original
packaging. The service is free and no identification is required.
Why Proper Medicine Disposal is Important
Properly disposing of unused or unwanted medicine is vital to prevent abuse or poisoning, and protect
the environment. Medicine flushed down the drain or disposed of in the trash can contaminate bodies
of water, harm wildlife and end up in drinking water supplies.
In addition to serving as a community engagement opportunity for Plymouth Police, the event is part of
a national effort to provide residents a safe, convenient and responsible means of disposing of
prescription drugs and educating the public about the potential for medication abuse.
For more information about medicine disposal or links to resources regarding prescription drug abuse
and addiction, visit plymouthmn.gov/medicine.
