Not able to load CONUS data in Expenses effective date 10/15/2015

The new CONUS data file has season end date of 02/29 for some of the locations, these rows are failing with error message of invalid date. Subscription handler is taking year (2015) from the effective date 10/01/2015 and concatenate with season end date of 02/29 for leap year next year. So it is coming up with date of 02/29/2015 and saying a invalid date since there is no 02/29 in year 2015. However rate is for 02/29/2016 and which is a valid date since 2016 is leap year.
