REQUEST NO.: Staff - 085 TELEPHONE: [phone]

REQUEST:

Please provide any quality assurance or inspection documentation Avista collects or receives regarding the installation of weatherization measures for each Idaho home completed during the 2014 or 2015 program year.

RESPONSE:

The Agencies are required to keep detailed records of the projects for both state and federal funding requirements and as such do the same for utility projects. Avista asks to see the associated detail related to each project as necessary. The files are often robust with copies of audits, bids, job orders, invoices and inspections. The information is readily available during the time of payment, however a separate copy is not created for the purposes of the Avista projects. Project information is provided upon request.
