(3) Within 30 days after service of the notice of proposed annual fee, the competitive provider may file a petition with the Commission for a hearing. In its petition, the competitive provider must specify its reasons for disputing the proposed annual fee. The Commission may conduct a hearing on the petition under its rules governing hearings and proceedings.
