Enacted legislation or regulation

In effect

Scope

Oregon Public Utility Commission Order No. 26-239, entered 10 July 2026 in docket UM 2377, approves Portland General Electric Advice No. 26-24, including the errata filed 30 June 2026 and 2 July 2026, updating rate schedules and rules in response to Order No. 26-154. The order says the decision was made and effective at the 7 July 2026 public meeting and that the written order was made, entered, and effective on 10 July 2026. The attached staff report lists an effective date of 8 July 2026. This record does not choose among those three dates. The order does not say it repeals Order No. 26-154, and it does not order a data center to stop operating.

Summary

Order No. 26-239, entered 10 July 2026, approves Portland General Electric's Advice No. 26-24 compliance filing, including the stated errata, which updates rate schedules and rules in response to Order No. 26-154. The order says the decision was made and effective at the 7 July 2026 public meeting. Its stamp says the order was made, entered, and effective on 10 July 2026. The staff report attached to the order lists 8 July 2026 as an effective date. Because the opened order uses all three dates, this record does not store one of them as the only effective day. The approval implements the May order. It does not replace that order, and it does not say an operating data center must close.

What this does not establish

  • The order, the meeting narrative, and the staff report do not use the same effective day. None of 7, 8, or 10 July 2026 is stored as the sole effective_date.
  • The approved tariff sheets' megawatt thresholds and contract terms were not copied out of Advice No. 26-24 in this review.
  • This order does not supersede Order No. 26-154. It approves the filing that order required.
  • A commission press release describing Schedule 96 and a surcharge was not used as the legal text.

Unresolved questions

  • Which of the three stated dates is the tariff's legal effective day was not resolved by a later errata.
  • Pacific Power's separate compliance case was not decided by this order.

Relationships

Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. A later implementation or a related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
