2. Micron has a direct and substantial interest in this matter. Veolia Water ldaho, Inc.
("Veolia") has requested an averageZ3.4o/o rate increase to its water service customers. As a large
Veolia consumer, Micron's water expenses will increase substantially if Veolia's rates are
implemented without change. Additionally, Micron was an active participant in Veolia's (then
Suez Water ldaho, Inc.) last rate case and a signatory to the Stipulation and Settlement entered in
that case.l That Stipulation and Settlement required Veolia to undertake a load study and present
the results of such load study in this general rate case. Micron has a direct and substantial interest
in the results of that load study presented in this matter.
3. Micron intends to participate herein as a party, and if necessary, to introduce
evidence, cross-examine witnesses, call and examine witnesses, and be heard in argument. The
nature and quality of evidence which Micron will inhoduce is dependent upon the nature and effect
of other evidence in this proceeding.

I Case No. SUZ-W-20-02.
4. Granting Micron's Petition to Intervene will not unduly broaden the issues, nor will
it prejudice any party to this case; rather, granting the petition will serve the public's interest.
5. Without the opportunity to intervene herein, Micron would be without adequate
means of participation in this proceeding that may have a material impact on its water rates and
terms and conditions of service.
WHEREFORE, Micron Technology, Inc. respectfully requests that the Commission grant
its Petition to Intervene in this proceeding and to appear and participate in all maffers as may bc
nccessary and appropriate; and to present evidence, call and examine witnesses, prcsent argument
and to otherwise fully participate in this proceeding.
