Section 300.70  Variance

The Commission, on application of a utility or on its own motion, may grant a variance from this Part in individual cases where the Commission finds that:

a)         The provision from which the variance is granted is not statutorily mandated;

b)         No party will be injured by the granting of the variance; and

c)         The rule from which the variance is granted would, in the particular case, be unreasonable or unnecessarily burdensome.
