Should this review prove negative, then on January 1st, 1983, the Newcastle Commission will also adjust rates to reflect the impact of the wholesale rate. The amount of increase, if any, is unknown at this time, but be assured the Commission will do everything within its power to assure any change will be in the best interest of the customers they serve.
