		ORDER DISMISSING COMPLAINT AND ORDER SUSPENDING TARIFF REVISIONS IN DOCKET 
UW-991863 AND GRANTING LESS THAN STATUTORY NOTICE IN DOCKET UW-000126


BACKGROUND

  On November 30,1999, Harbor Springs Water Co., Inc. (Harbor Water) filed 
tariff revisions in docket UW-991863 with the Commission designated as:

   Second  Revised Sheet No. 21
   Canceling
   Original Sheet No. 21.

  On December 29, 1999, the Commission entered a Complaint and Order Suspending 
Tariff Revisions.  The Commission is now in receipt of a letter dated February 
1, 2000, whereby respondent requests that the tariff revisions filed in Docket 
UW-991863 be allowed to be withdrawn.  It appears to be in the public interest 
to accommodate the request and to dismiss the Complaint and Order Suspending 
Tariff Revisions in Docket UW-991863.

  Concurrent with the withdrawal letter, the Company filed revised tariff 
sheets in Docket UW-000126.   These revised sheets bear an inserted effective 
date of   March 3, 2000.  This date recognizes statutory notice as required.  
The Company requests, however, that statutory notice be waived and that the 
revisions become effective March 1, 2000, to coincide with the Company's next 
billing cycle. 

  Since the revised tariff revisions filed in Docket UW-000126 appear to be 
fair, just and reasonable, and waiver of statutory notice is not inconsistent 
with the public interest, it is deemed appropriate that the Company be granted 
the waiver it is requesting with an effective date of March 1, 2000.

FINDINGS

  After review of the tariff revisions filed in Docket UW-991863 by Harbor 
Springs Water Company, Inc., on February 1, 2000, and giving due consideration, 
the Commission finds that the Complaint and Order Suspending Tariff Revisions 
in Docket UW-991863, dated December 29, 1999, should be dismissed.

  After careful examination of the tariff revisions filed in Docket UW-000126 
by Harbor Springs Water Company, Inc., on February 1, 2000, and giving 
consideration to all relevant matters and for good cause shown, the Commission 
finds that the tariff revisions should become effective March 1, 2000

O R D E R

  THE COMMISSION THEREFORE ORDERS:

  1. The Complaint and Order Suspending Tariff Revisions in Docket UW-991863, 
dated December 29, 1999, be and the same is hereby dismissed.

  2. That the requested waiver of statutory notice in connection with the 
tariff revisions filed in Docket UW-000126 by Harbor Springs Water Company, 
Inc., on February 1, 2000, is hereby granted, and said tariff revisions shall 
become effective March 1, 2000.

  DATED at Olympia, Washington, and effective this 23th day of 
February, 2000.
