NEWS RELEASE: Commission approves water utility application to expand service territory.
BOISE (March 12,2025)—The Idaho Public Utilities Commission has approved an application
from an eastern Idaho water utility that will allow it to expand its service territory.
Rocky Mountain Utilities sought commission approval to have its Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity amended. The utility will be allowed to serve Divisions 2 and 3 of
the Pepperwood Crossing subdivision in Jefferson County, Idaho. Its system currently serves 108
residential and 11 commercial customers. The number of customers could grow to 254 with full
development of the expanded territory.
The commission determined the system had adequate water capacity to meet regulations and
future demand in its service territory. The commission also determined the utility's system was
properly maintained.
The amended certificate also will allow the utility to continue to serve the 11 commercial
customers.
