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.
