As acknowledged in Staff Comments, p. 3, Red Pheasant is new to regulation and is still adjusting to the procedures required of a Commission-regulated utility. This acclimation has been additionally hindered by unanticipated circumstances—namely medical issues experienced by H. William Hobbs, Jr., Red Pheasant's managing member and the designated responder in this case, id., p. 2, and Red Pheasant's transition to new accounting software, which thwarted the Company's efforts to timely respond to Staff s Production requests.Id., p. 3. While recognizing that these shortcomings impeded Staffs ability to effectively assess Red Pheasant's financial COMMENTS FROM RED PHEASANT HOLDINGS,LLC IN RESPONSE TO PUC STAFF COMMENTS Page 1 viability and the reasonableness of its current rates, the Company offers the following comments and supporting documentation regarding two aspects that distinctly influenced Staff s recommendation to the Commission. Operating Expenses: storage tank lease Staff s determination that operating expenses should be decreased from Red Pheasant's 2024 income statement by $47,144, id., p. 7, is principally attributable to removal of the storage tank lease from the calculation. That is an understandable notion, given that Red Pheasant was unable to immediately submit documentation that lease payments were still being made during the proposed test period, July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025. Id., p. 3. Moreover, even if Staff had been provided the original lease (see document attached hereto as Exhibit 1), which commenced in 2018, it likely would have concluded that said lease's 60-month term expired before the proposed test period began. However, the original lease had been amended in February of 2020 to initiate a new 60- month term, id., p. 9, that would have expired in February of 2025. Therefore, nearly $22,000— or seven monthly payments of$3,125.41, id., p. 10—were made under the original lease during the proposed test period. Just prior to the lease's expiration date, Red Pheasant and the lessor, BancLeasing, LLC, agreed to a three-month extension, which called for monthly payments of$2,497.00, or a total of $7,491 over the extension period(see document attached hereto as Exhibit 2). This preceded another amendment and extension(see document attached hereto as Exhibit 3), which the parties executed on June 11, 2025. The latest extension calls for 60 monthly payments of$2,405.29, with the first installment due on June 15, 2025. Accordingly, Red Pheasant made lease payments totaling $31,774.16 during the proposed test period. These lease payments will be a continuing operating expense through May of 2030, with Red Pheasant remitting cumulative payments of 28,863.48 per fiscal year. COMMENTS FROM RED PHEASANT HOLDINGS,LLC IN RESPONSE TO PUC STAFF COMMENTS Page 2 Revenue: Staff recalculation based on 2024 test period Staff s conclusion that Red Pheasant may have overearned during the 2024 test period, Staff Comments, pp. 5, 15-16, is based on an anomaly; the income data from said test period does not correlate with the Company's per-annum earnings over that same span. In reality, Red Pheasant was playing catch-up on a significant billing backlog resulting from exigent circumstances (see letter attached hereto as Exhibit 4). Due to various complications related to infrastructure upgrades and repairs, among other issues, Red Pheasant did not invoice customers between August of 2021 and February of 2023. Id., p. 2. Consequently, the Company's 2024 income statement reflected earnings from two years of service—24 months' worth of fixed and volumetric charges were billed during the July 2023-June 2024 period. Id., pp. 2-3. Fixed rates alone, at$16.50 per month for 168 connections (Staff erroneously factored 175 connections, id., p. 4), accounted for$66,528 of Red Pheasant's metered sales per its 2024 income statement, leaving $113,440 in revenue coming from volumetric charges—again, over two years. Assuming the figures depicted in the 2024 income statement were proportionately generated, the Company's approximate earnings for the 2024 test period were $90,000, or roughly $42,000 less than Staffs recalculation of test year revenue. Id., pp. 4-5. Contrary to Staffs observations, these numbers suggest that Red Pheasant is underearning to the extent that it is failing to meet its revenue requirement. Summary Red Pheasant acknowledges that its failure to fully comply with Production Requests forced Staff to make certain assumptions or rely on dated information in the course of this investigation. Given its accountability, the Company does not criticize the methods used or the conclusions reached. Rather, this response and the accompanying documentation are offered to provide clarification on two points that figured significantly into Staffs finding that Red Pheasant's current rates are fair,just and reasonable. While the Comapny suspects that various COMMENTS FROM RED PHEASANT HOLDINGS,LLC IN RESPONSE TO PUC STAFF COMMENTS Page 3 determinations made by Staff were based on inadequate data or improperly applied metrics, at this time it has only addressed matters for which it can provide factual support. Considering the ongoing challenges Red Pheasant faces in adapting to existence as a regulated utility, it asks the Commission's patience during this transitional period.

Lewiston, ID 83501 208-790-2543 redi3heasantwater@emaiI.com Red Pheasant Water System Update --- Feb 2023 Greetings everyone. Sorry for the delay in getting updates, and more importantly, water bills out in a timely manner. We have been under pressure on many time sensitive projects, as well as upgrades and repairs, which have been severely hindered by shortages of materials and labor. At this time, we are starting to pick up on billing where we left off. The bills will be staggered with high usage months being billed on a monthly basis, and lower usage months being billed on bi monthly, quarterly schedules, and one quad month billing period as our reading schedules allow. There is always a chance of non-reading months happening in winter, due to weather. Some have asked for different billing options whether it is to the current time frame, as described above or for larger billing periods, etc. I am more than happy to work with you on whatever payment schedule would fit your needs best. At this time we have approximately 90 meters switched over to the automatic system. This is a significant help in time savings and data entry, but unfortunately, meters are almost a year out on delivery to complete the total switchover. We still have approximately 15-20 meters on hand that we are switching out as some of the older meters fail, so those meters will be slowly installed on non-emergent basis. We will always keep some on hand for replacements, as needed. As most of you know, we are dealing with the issue of the VFD failure. The VFD, or variable frequency drive, is the brain for the main booster pumps. The main booster pumps consist of 4-20hp pumps which this controller directs. We started to get some indication that this drive system was faulting in early September and we had a replacement specified and ordered by the end of September. The ship date at that time was January 4t". We had total failure on January 17t" and the updated ship time was rescheduled until February 24t". As of this morning the company says the 24t" is still what they are being told. We will keep our fingers crossed. Some of you have asked about keeping a replacement for this, unfortunately it is not feasible to do so, as it is a computer base part, so it would be obsolete in 7 years and the cost of this replacement part is over $40,000. We do keep spare motors and pump parts that don't change with technology, but not computer related parts. The main issue that I do not like is that we don't have the backup generator supply to the backup booster station. This means that during any power failure within the community and we lose all water pressure. I have made arrangements if something like this does happen, between LOID, Lewiston, and our valley fire departments, that we will be able to secure water for fire suppression efforts. This isn't an issue unless power is lost though. The improvements that we made, and completed this fall, with our reservoir 3 is Page 1 of 4 that we will be able to add an addition onto our current main building and are all ready to bolt in another BoosterpaQ booster pump system for more redundancy in our system. This past year we have replaced the smaller backup booster pump, with minor modifications. We have added venting to our buildings at the request of IDEA for chlorine storage. We reroofed two of our pumphouses. We continue to monitor our water sampling as directed by IDEA. The Public Utilities Commission (PUC) contacted us and are going to be the regulatory agency setting our rates from here out. This entails me getting over 25 years of data pulled together for them to review, create schedules, etc to determine the rates. Unfortunately, we were the first of a handful of systems in this region to be contacted for this. Attached to this mailing is a new contact information sheet that I would like to have on file for everyone. I need this to build an emergency contact information list to be able to contact you if a catastrophic event happens and to know what your billing preferences are. Please fill this out, it will not be shared with anyone or any entity. With the rising rates of postage, I would encourage you to utilize the payment drop box if you are sending checks or correspondences. This box is located on Red Pheasant Blvd next to the trailhead. As always, electronic options are available too. I am running at about 50% of my current ability, as I have lost a majority of the vision in my right eye and will need surgery to correct, hopefully before summer. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or issues. We can explain things in more detail or make arrangements as necessary. Below is a breakdown of the payment schedule as it will be implemented. Again, you can pay more towards the balances owed and it will show on your statements. We should have everyone back to the normal billing schedules by the middle of next year. If by chance you pay ahead of the schedule, that amount will credit towards your account and will get you back on a normal schedule quicker. I hope everyone is having a good winter, as we have been pretty lucky so far. Take care and thanks for your patience.
