the application of fntermountain Gas Company to change
its rates and charges for natural gas service 1n the
State of Idaho.
My name is Kri-stine Raper and I'11 be the
Chair of tonight's proceeding. I have with me if
you're on the phone you can't see it, but to my left is
Commissioner Paul Kjellander. To my right is
Commissioner Eric Anderson. We comprise the Commission
and we wil-l- ultimately render a final- decision in these
matters.
The public hearing set for tonight is an
opportunity for any members of the public, dDy parties,
members of the public that wish to get on public record
with a court reporter testimony regarding their opinion
of the application filed by fntermountain Gas, so I would
note that it is not an opportunity to ask the
Commissioners questions directly. That's not why we're
here. We're here to listen to your issues and/or
concerns regarding the filing of the natural gas Company,o 25
