HAND DELIVERY

REDACTED

RE: Docket No. 20170223-SU; Application for establishment of wastewater AFPI charges in Highlands, Lake, Ma rion, Pasco and Pinellas Counties by Utilities, Inc. of Florida Our File No. 30057.232

Dear Ms. Stauffer:

On October 16, 2017 I attempted to send the attached correspondence to you by USPS Priority Mail. Although the USPS tracking system show the letter delivered (see attached), it apparently did not reach you.

Therefore, enclosed is our check in the amount of$2,250 for the filing fee. If the prior letter and check show up, please give me a call and 1 will pick it up. The prior letter included a proposed Notice, and I have already worked with Staff on that so it is no longer necessary to forward that to Staff ..

Should you or Staff have any questions regarding this fil ing, please do not hesitate to give me a call.
