WHEREAS, the Reverse Mortgage was insured by the United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (the Secretary) pursuant to the National Housing Act for the purpose of providing single family housing; and

The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid $239,443.74.

There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorate share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale.

When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totalling $23,944.37 in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out the Secretary of HUD. A deposit need not accompany each oral bid. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $23,944.37 must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence.

The extension fee shall be in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due.

If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit of, at the election of the foreclosure commissioner after consultation with the HUD representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure.

There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does not guarantee that the property will be vacant.

The scheduled foreclosure sale shall be cancelled or adjourned if it is established, by documented written application of the mortgagor to the Foreclosure Commissioner not less than 3 days before the date of sale, or otherwise, that the default or defaults upon which the foreclosure is based did not exist at the time of service of this notice of default and foreclosure sale, or all amounts due under the mortgage agreement are tendered to the Foreclosure Commissioner, in the form of a certified or cashier’s check payable to the Secretary of HUD, before public auction of the property is completed.

The amount that must be paid if the mortgage is to be reinstate prior to the scheduled sale is $239,425.74 as of February 14, 2020, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, milage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement.

Public Notice #8130 published in the Pinedale Roundup on Jan.  24, 31, Feb. 7, 2020

PUBLIC NOTICE

Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Procedural Rules, notice is hereby given of Rocky Mountain Power’s (RMP or the Company) application requesting an accounting order to defer costs related to repowering wind plants or for alternate relief (Application).

RMP is a public utility as defined in Wyo. Stat. § 37-1-101(a)(vi)(C), subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction pursuant to Wyo. Stat. § 37-2-112. 

On December 30, 2019, RMP filed an Application requesting authority to [i] defer for future recovery, the costs associated with the repowering of its Glenrock I, Glenrock III, Rolling Hills, Seven Mile I, Seven Mile II, High Plains, McFadden Ridge, Dunlap, Marengo I, Marengo II and Goodnoe Hills wind facilities (Repowering Project); [ii] defer for future recovery, the costs and benefits associated with the repowering of its Leaning Juniper wind plant; and [iii] alternatively, if the Commission determines that the Repowering Project’s or Leaning Juniper’s costs and the Production Tax Credit (PTC) benefits are not appropriate for deferred accounting, the Company requests an order allowing it to remove the benefits of the Repowering Project and Leaning Juniper from the Energy Cost Adjustment Mechanism (ECAM) until the rate effective date of the Company’s next general rate case.

RMP states it is nearing completion of its Repowering Project and Leaning Juniper and its requested deferral will allow the Company to recover its prudently incurred costs from 2019 and those it will incur in 2020. RMP seeks to record and defer for later recovery, [a] the return on investment; [b] depreciation expense; [c] operation and maintenance costs; [d] property taxes; [e] wind taxes, if assessed; [f] incremental net power costs; and [g] PTC benefits, associated with its Repowering Project and Leaning Juniper, on a monthly basis, beginning when the facilities are placed into service, until rates from the Company’s next general rate case become effective.

RMP states it is seeking to appropriately match the realization by its customers of the benefits from the Repowering Project and Leaning Juniper, through the ECAM. The Company also notes its Repowering Project, and the associated costs, received Commission approval and were found to be in the public interest. Additionally, RMP states the Repowering Project and Leaning Juniper will be subject to a public process in which parties will have an opportunity to review these wind projects and any associated costs.

This is not a complete description of the Application. Interested persons may inspect the Application at the Commission’s offices in Cheyenne, Wyoming during regular business hours. The Application may also be viewed on the Commission’s data management system at https://dms.wyo.gov/external/publicusers.aspx.

Anyone desiring to file a public comment, statement, intervention petition, protest or request for a public hearing in this matter must do file with the Commission in writing on or before February 14, 2020. Any intervention request filed with the Commission shall set forth the grounds of the proposed intervention or request for hearing as well as the position and the interest of the petitioner in this proceeding.

If you wish to intervene in this matter or request a public hearing which you will attend and you require reasonable accommodation for a disability, call the Commission at (307) 777-7427 or write to the Commission, 2515 Warren Avenue, Suite 300, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82002. Communications-impaired persons may contact the Commission through Wyoming Relay at 711. Please refer to Docket No. 20000-575-EA-19 (Record No. 15414) in your communications.
