(220 ILCS 5/9-102) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 9-102)
Sec. 9-102.
Every public utility shall file with the Commission and shall
print and keep open to public inspection schedules showing all rates and
other charges, and classifications, which are in force at the time for any
product or commodity furnished or to be furnished by it, or for any service
performed by it, or for any service in connection therewith, or performed
by any public utility controlled or operated by it. Every public utility
shall file with and as a part of such schedule and shall state separately
all rules, regulations, storage or other charges,
privileges and contracts that in any manner affect the rates charged or to
be charged for any service. Such schedule shall be filed for all services
performed wholly or partly within this State, and the rates and other
charges and classifications shall not, without the consent of the
Commission, exceed those in effect on December 31, 1985. But nothing in this
section shall prevent the Commission from approving or fixing rates or
other charges or classifications from time to time, in excess of or less
than those shown by said schedules.
Where a schedule of joint rates or other charges, or classifications is
or may be in force between two or more public utilities such schedules
shall in like manner be printed and filed with the Commission, and so much
thereof as the Commission shall deem necessary for the use of the public
shall be filed in every office of such public utility in
accordance with the terms of Section 9-103 of this Act. Unless otherwise
ordered by the Commission a schedule showing such joint rates or other
charges, or classifications need not be filed with the Commission by more
than one of the parties to it: Provided, that there is also filed with the
Commission a concurrence in such schedule by each of the other parties
thereto.
Every public utility shall file with the Commission copies of all
contracts, agreements or arrangements with other public utilities, in
relation to any service, product or commodity affected by the provisions of
this Act, to which it may be a party, and copies of all other contracts,
agreements or arrangements with any other person or corporation affecting
in the judgment of the Commission the cost to such public utility of any
service, product or commodity.
