IDAHO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION

MINUTES OF DECISION MEETING

MAY 17, 2004 – 1:30 P.M.

In attendance were Commissioners Paul Kjellander, Marsha Smith and Dennis Hansen.

Commissioner Kjellander called the meeting to order. The first order of business was approval of the CONSENT AGENDA, items 1-6. Commissioner Smith made a motion to hold item 2 because the Commission has not yet issued an order that outlines the Commission’s philosophy with regard to granting ETC status. She suggested the Commission deliberate and issue an order on the related cases it has already heard and then see where we stand. There was no further discussion on item 2. A vote was taken on the motion and it carried unanimously.

There were no comments or questions on the remainder of the Consent Agenda items 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Commissioner Kjellander made a motion to approve the items. A vote was taken and the motion carried unanimously.

There were no further items on the agenda and Commissioner Kjellander adjourned the meeting.

DATED this ______ day of May, 2004.
