After any final order or decision is made by the governing body of the public power entity regarding terms and conditions for customer selection, complaint resolution, consumer protection, stranded costs, transmission and distribution service rates and charges, system benefit charges and other related matters as determined in the reasonable discretion of the governing body of the public power entity, or regarding compliance with an intergovernmental agreement made under the provisions of this chapter, any party to the action or proceeding or the attorney general on behalf of the state may apply for a rehearing of any matter determined in the action or proceeding and specified in the application for rehearing within twenty days of entry of the order or decision. Unless otherwise ordered, the filing of the application does not stay the decision of the governing body of the public power entity. If the governing body of the public power entity does not grant the application within twenty days, it is deemed denied. If the governing body of the public power entity grants the application, the governing body of the public power entity shall promptly hear the matter and make a determination within twenty days after final submission.

C. The application shall set forth specifically the grounds on which it is based and a person or the state shall not in any court urge or rely on any ground not set forth in the application.
D. An application for rehearing does not excuse any person from complying with and obeying any order or decision or any requirements of any order or decision of the governing body of the public power entity, or operate in any manner to stay or postpone the enforcement of a decision, except in cases and on terms as the governing body of the public power entity by order directs.
E. If, after a rehearing and a consideration of all the facts, including those arising since the making of the order or decision, the governing body of the public power entity finds that the original order or decision or any part of the original order or decision is in any respect unjust or unwarranted or should be changed the governing body of the public power entity may abrogate, change or modify the order or decision, and the order or decision has the same force and effect as an original order or decision, but does not affect any right or the enforcement of any right arising from or by virtue of the original order or decision, unless decided by the governing body of the public power entity.
