The return shall be signed by a responsible officer or agent of the electric utility and shall be accompanied by a payment for the surcharge due.

The return and the payment shall be filed quarterly on or before the last day of the month next succeeding each calendar quarter. Amounts of surcharge due for which a billing for the electrical energy is issued by an electric utility to the consumer prior to the close of a calendar quarter are payable with the surcharge return for that quarter.
