IPUC Data Request 28
Please provide a list of all line extensions made in the Idaho jurisdictional area for
the past five years. For each line extension, include the following:
(a) description of the applicant, such as residential subdivision, single residence,
duplex, commercial, industrial, irrigation, or other;
(b) whether the line extension was overhead or underground;
( c) voltage, phase, and length of the line extension;
( d) actual cost of the line extension;
( e) net amount paid by the applicant to the Company for the extension;
(f) amount of allowances and refunds granted to the applicant for the extension;
(g) if the Company, a contractor, or the customer installed the line;
(h) total the dollar amounts by year.
1st Supplemental to IPUC Data Request 28
The Company's line extension data is maintained by the following classifications
Commercial, Industrial, Irrigation, and Residential. Line extensions for
Residential subdivisions are not tracked separately. The Company databases do
not contain customer specific information whether a line extension is overhead or
underground, voltage, phase, length of line, or who built the line. To get that
information would necessitate manually reviewing each individual job.
Please refer to Attachment IPUC 28 1st Supplemental, which is an excel
workbook with two sheets.
a. The sheet labeled "2011-2015 Meter Sets" provides all meter sets by years
broken into line extensions, and temporary and service only connections.
It also indicates how many of these were for line extensions contained in
the contracts database.
b. Not available as discussed above.
c. Not available as discussed above.
d. The sheet labeled "Job Costs" has the costs of the line extensions in the
contracts database, as well as the customer advances ( e ), and allowances
(f).
e. Seed.
f. Seed. for the allowances, and response to Data Request IPUC 30 for the
refunds.
g. Once a line is built the database does not identify if the Company built it
or if it was applicant built. The vast majority of extensions in Idaho, if not
all, are Company built.
h. Seed.
