SECOND PRODUCTION REQUEST OF THE COMMISSION STAFF
Preparer/RecordholderlSponsoring Witness: Greg Wyatt
Telephone: (208)362-7327
Title: General Manager
REQUEST NO. 54:
Please provide further details on the Company s proposal regarding assistance
for low-income customers. How does United Water determine which customers
are low income?
RESPONSE NO. 54: First Update
As part of it's filing before the Idaho Public Utilities Commission for authority to
increase its rates and charges for water service , United Water Idaho (United)
proposed to convene a workshop(s) to evaluate the need for, scope and design
of a low-income assistance program for customers, (see Wyatt Direct Testimony
page 16, line 18 through page 17 , line 16). After adequate public notification , a
workshop was conducted on February 23 , 2005 at the Commission offices from
10:00 A.M. until approximately noon. In addition to United and Commission
Staff, representatives of Community Action Partnership of Idaho (CAPAI) and
one individual customer participated in the workshop. A copy of the workshop
agenda is attached. Following the workshop, United and CAPAI have continued
a dialogue regarding a low-income assistance program resulting in the following
proposal.
United's proposed low-income assistance program is comprised of three
components: a lower priced initial rate block in the summer, a fund from which
customers may receive water bill payment assistance, and targeted water
conservation help.
Residential Summer Rate Block
United proposes implementing a two-tier inclining summer rate structure for
residential customers where the first 3 hundred cubic feet (ccf) of water
consumed in a billing cycle is priced at the winter rate, and all other water
consumption priced at the 250/0 higher summer rate. This inclining rate block
structure would be effective May 1 through September 30 of each year to
coincide with the current "summer rate" timing.
The "lost revenue" from 3 ccf of consumption in the summer priced at the winter
rate has been calculated to be $100 406. United recommends spreading this
revenue across the entire year and adjusting both the winter rate and the
summer rate accordingly in order to make this component of the low-income
assistance program essentially revenue neutral to the Company.
The 3 ccf level (2 244 gallons) was chosen based on the perception that a
subsistence" level of water could be priced at the winter rate in order to enable
residential customers to "flush the toilet and take a shower" in the summer for the
same cost as in the winter. Statistics from a 1997 Idaho Department of
Environmental Quality report (the most current IDEQ data available) shows that
average daily household toilet and shower use is approximately 30 gallons a day,
(18 gallons for toilet and 12 gallons for shower). For a 60-day billing period this
amounts to 1 800 gallons of water. Therefore the 3ccf threshold accommodates
a small amount of water use (444 gallons) in excess of this "toilet and shower
use each billing period.
United also analyzed its billing data and determined that approximately 10% of its
customers billed during the winter use period , use 3ccf or less in a billing period.
It is reasonable to assume that low-income users would be in this low water
consumption group so it is logical to project that, although the 3ccf rate block in
the summer will benefit all users, it will benefit low-income users the most.
United Water Shares
United proposes a voluntary giving program to a "United Water Shares" fund
among its customers through its billing and collections process. United'
shareholders would initially support the United Water Shares fund in an amount
of $10 000 in 2005 (assuming the program begins in July 2005) and would then
match customer contributions to the fund up to $20,000 in ensuing years.
Customers would have the option of donating to the United Water Shares fund
when paying their bill.
United would initially partner with CAPAI for customer screening and
administration of the fund. CAPAI would screen applicants for eligibility and to
determine account credits. The following describes the basic program
parameters:
In qeneral:
CAPAI begins to process benefits as soon as the program- is
authorized based on United Water shareholder initial infusion of funds.
After the first six months , monthly distributions to be based on the
average monthly collection of the previous three months including
United Water shareholder contributions.
CAPAI free to solicit other donations to the fund if they choose.
Monthly fund amount to be made available to eligible customers on a
first-come, first-served basis.
CAPAI would charge United an administrative fee of 10010 of the funds
used , which would be booked as a utility operating expense.
Eliqibilitv:
Eligible customers would be those at or below 1500/0 of the Federal
Poverty Guidelines.
Maximum individual benefit to be capped at $50.00.
Water termination has to be imminent.
Customer eligibility limited to one time in any calendar year. This
limitation and/or the $50.00 cap may be revisited later based on fund
utilization and balance.
Distribution:
United Water to hold the United Water Shares funds in a separate
account.
CAPAI determines applicant eligibility, gathers basic demographic
information (name , address , account number, phone number, etc.
and submits daily report to United Water.
Upon notice from CAP AI , United Water credits eligible accounts and
transfers appropriate amounts from United Water Shares fund to
United Water and credits accounts receivable. Follow-up notice of
accounts credited made back to CAPAI.
United would communicate and promote the United Water Shares program and
seek customer contributions by means of bill inserts and messages on the bill.
United anticipates the annual cost for bill inserts to be $12,000, based on three
inserts per year at $4 000 each time, which will be booked as a utility operating
expense.
IMgeted Conservation Hel~
United proposes targeting water conservation information and water conservation
kits (indoor and outdoor kits) specifically to those customers who are determined
eligible for assistance by CAPAI under the United Water Shares program.
CAPAI estimates they serve approximately 300 United Water Idaho customers
per year through its Weatherization program. These same customers are likely
to have need of the United Water Shares program and could benefit by
implementing water conservation practices. CAPAI would distribute conservation
information and kits supplied by United to the targeted customers.

Director - Regulatory Business
REQUEST NO. 165
Please provide any contracts with , or proposals from, any insurance providers
that substantiate the requested increases in HMO Blue Insurance Plan , United
Health Care Choice Plus Plans, and the Dental and Vision Coverage. These
contracts and proposals should tie to the monthly pro forma calculations provided
in Mr. Healy s workpapers for Company Adjustment No.3. If the amounts are
different than what is provided in Mr. Healy s workpapers , please give a detailed
explanation of the difference and provide a reconciliation between the amounts.
RESPONSE:
The attachments to this request constitute the contract rates for the various
health insurance coverages provided to employees through United Water.
United Water engages Mercer Human Resources health and welfare consultants
and actuaries to develop the rates for the self-insured medical plans. As self-
insured plans, Mercer actuaries review United Water s medical claims experience
which constitutes the basis of the cost since it is based on the actual experience
of the previous 12 months. Then they factor in the projected medical cost
increase for the succeeding 12 months to determine these rates.
Attachment 1 is a copy of 2005 self-insured medical plans administered by
United Healthcare. Employees pay a portion of this cost as indicated on the
attached chart.
Attachment 2 is a copy of monthly premium rates for Idaho Preferred HMO plan
administered by Blue Cross. These rates are effective 1/1/05 to 12/31/05.
United Water receives an annual cost increase based on criteria used by Blue
Cross to evaluate and price this insurance plan. They usually look at the
community rating as well as the United Water specific claims paid.
Attachment 3 is a copy of monthly cost of dental plan administered by Aetna.
United Water did not get a cost increase for the Vision Plan administered by
VSP. 2004 premium rates continue for 2005.

Please illustrate how the expenses for Group Term Life Insurance coverage and
Long-Term Disability coverage are allocated from the corporate level to United
Water Idaho. Please include within your response each expense at the
corporate level , the allocator used to derive the UWID expense, and the
components of each allocator.
RESPONSE:
~Ianation of Life and L TO allocations:
Each month the invoices for Group Term Life and Long-Term disability are paid
by corporate and allocated to the business units based on participation and
election by employees. Group Term Life insurance charges are calculated based
upon the total dollar coverage for each company. The current rate is 12 cents per
000 of coverage. All employees are eligible for 3 times their base annual
salary in group term life coverage. Assuming, as an example, that base salary is
$3,961 824 and multiplying by 3 , total coverage would be $11 885 471. Dividing
this result by $1 000 and pricing it at 12 cents per thousand provides a monthly
expense of $1 ,426 or $17 115 annually. Long-Term disability is allocated based
upon total dollar coverage as well and the current rate is $.50 per $100 of
coverage.
Example Monthlv Calculation:
Total volume for 600/0 coverage is: $1 532 741+ 111 559 + 81 500/100*50/12 =
$719.
Total volume for 66 2/30/0 coverage is: $111 559/100*12/12 = $11.
Total volume for 700/0 coverage is $81 500/100*12/12 = $8.
Total volume coverage is $1 725,800 total monthly premium is $738.
Total volume for 600/0 coverage is: $1 805 689 + 268,091/100*50/12 = $864.
Total volume for 66 2/30/0 coverage for is: $268 091/100*12/12 = $26.
Total cost is $1 629.28 monthly or $19 551 annually.

Please illustrate how casualty insurance , property insurance and worker
compensation insurance are allocated from the corporate level directly to United
Water Idaho. Please include within your response the components of each
allocator and show the calculation.
RESPONSE:
Explanation of insurance allocations:
General, Excess & Other (Casualty insurance),
The allocation of insurance in the General , Excess & Other category is made on
the basis of each entity s "Assets, less cash , Intercompany Receivables and
Investment in Subsidiaries" against the corporate total. This allocation
methodology has been in use for over ten years and provides commonality
across all entities.
Property
Property insurance is purchased on a corporate-wide basis for all United Water
entities and premiums are allocated to all entities having insurable property. The
allocation is calculated as a percentage of the individual entity s "Property, Plant
& Equipment" values as compared to the corporate total. This allocation
methodology has been in use for over ten years and provides commonality
across all entities.
Workers Compensation
Workers compensation insurance is purchased on a corporate-wide basis for all
United Water entities and premiums are allocated to all entities having employee
exposures. The allocation is calculated as a percentage of the individual entity
payroll as compared to the corporate total payroll. This allocation methodology
has been in use for over ten years and provides commonality across all entities.
Example -March 2004:
The total premium allocated for casualty insurance for the quarter was
$824 874 of which $98 378 (11.60/0) was allocated to United Water Idaho. The
11.60/0 was arrived at by taking United Water Idaho s assets less cash
intercompany receivables and investment in subsidiaries divided by the total for
all business units included in the allocation $186 822/$1 613 927 = 11.60/0.
The total deductible amount allocated for casualty insurance for the quarter
was $149 023 of which $19 306 (13.0%) was allocated to United Water Idaho.
The 13.00/0 was arrived at by taking United Water Idaho s assets less cash
intercompany receivables and investment in subsidiaries divided by the total for
all business units included in the allocation $186,822/$1 442 082 = 13.00/0.
The total premium allocated for workers compensation was $223 780 of
which $13 498 (6.00/0) was allocated to United Water Idaho. The 6.0% was
arrived at by taking United Water Idaho s gross payroll divided by the total payroll
for all the companies included in the allocation $3 983/$223,780 = 00/0.
The total deductible amount allocated for workers compensation was
$613 332 of which $32 142 (5.20/0) was allocated to United Water Idaho. The
2% was arrived at by taking United Water Idaho s gross payroll divided by the
total payroll for all the companies included in the allocation $4 050/$77 282 =
20/0.
The total premium allocated for property insurance was $100 844 of which
$14 141 (14./0) was allocated to United Water Idaho. The 14.0% was arrived at
by taking total property, plant and equipment by the total property, plant and
equipment for all the companies included in the allocation $182 229/$1 299,550 =
14.00/0.

Please provide all documents supporting the budgeted levels of overtime
premium pay and other labor. What assumptions were used to derive these
levels.
RESPONSE NO. 182:
The Company has included in the gross payroll calculation $103 374 of overtime
pay. This figure represents 2.30/0 of total payroll ($4 399,566). The overtime pay
is based on test year experience and is in line with historical annual overtime pay
as indicated below and as documented on the attached schedules.
Year Total Overtime P
2000 $117,502
2001 $105,917
2002 $113,683
2003 $ 92,360
2004 $ 99 136
Five Year Average $105 720
By premium pay, this answer assumes Staff is referring to certification pay andlor
standby pay that are contractually available to bargaining unit employees.
Certification pay eligibility is covered in the bargaining unit agreement, previously
provided to Staff, section 10.2. The Company requires certification by the Idaho
Water and Wastewater Certification Board or the International Society for
Instrumentation and Control for certain job classifications. Certification pay
ranges from $0.15 per hour to $0.50 cents per hour added to the position base
wage , depending on the level of certification required. In the Company
calculation of Payroll to Operations and Maintenance expense (Healy Exhibit No.
, Schedule 1 , page 1 of 34 and associated work papers) unfilled entry-level
bargaining unit positions are included without any provision for certification pay.
Stand by pay is available to the Operator and Control System Technician job
classification. Stand-by pay is covered in the Union agreement section 25.5. The
Company requires one ground water Operator, one water treatment plant
Operator and one Control System Technician to be on call at all times, seven
days a week, fifty two weeks a year. The annual cost of stand-by used in thecase, $28,023, is calculated by multiplying the per day standby rate of two
Operators ($25.24 ea.) and one Control System T echs . ($26.30 ea.) times 365
days.
The Company assumes that the reference in the Production Request to "otherlabor" means summer temporary labor. The Company hires additional seasonal
employees in the Production Department (three temps) and Transmission and
Distribution Department (two temps) Department to assist with operation and
maintenance during the summer months when all water sources are being used
maintenance and weed control at all facilities is necessary and the meter change
out program is in full operation. These employees also cover for regular
employees who may take vacation during the busy summer season.

REQUEST NO. 183:
Please provide all documents supporting the rates used to escalate each labor
group. What assumptions were used to derive these rates? Did the rates take
into account employee turnover, retirements, etc? If included, how were they
incorporated?
RESPONSE NO. 183:
The Company has previously provided some of this requested information. In
Audit Request No. 24, a copy of the current Bargaining Unit agreement was
provided. This document served as the basis for escalating the wages
bargaining unit employees through both lump sum payments and escalation
the hourly wage rate.
With regard to non-bargaining unit employees , the Response to Production
Request No. 181 states that the Company used a 3.50/0 planning assumption in
the original filing to escalate wages. This response also documents that since the
original filing, the Company has received documentation that the actual wage
escalation rate for non-bargaining employees will be 3.30/0. The Company intends
to adjust it's original filing to reflect the revised wage escalation rate.
Employee turnover and retirements were accounted for in the Company s filing.
As indicated in Mr. Healy s testimony, the Company workforce is increasing from
eighty-eight to ninety-one employees as a result of new surface and ground
water treatment facilities, and the need for a Public Affairs Manager. There were
also five positions that were unfilled due to employee retirements/turnover. For
bargaining unit positions, it was assumed that new, or existing but unfilled
positions, would be internally filled , thus creating a cascading effect that tends to
leave entry level position s open for external hiring. The new hires are included in
the case per the bargaining-unit agreement wage requirements for new
employees. In many cases, the hiring of a new employee reduces the Company
overall payroll costs because of provisions in the agreement (section 10.1) that
pay lower wages to employees in certain positions hired after April 1 , 2003.

target cost in June 2002 was $16,112 997.
Early in the design phase, CDM and United Water conducted numerous internal
workshops evaluating design alternatives and confirming project scope limits.
Several meetings were also held with Idaho Department of Environmental Quality
and Ada County to confirm permitting requirements. Decisions from these
workshops and meetings resulted in a final design concept that was substantially
the same as that originally proposed with respect to the treatment building, raw
and treated water pumping, membrane filtration , and treatment chemical
systems.
The final design differs from the initial proposal in only two significant ways.
First, the ultraviolet disinfection system was deferred, since it is not required by
current regulations, and there is uncertainty about when it may be required in the
future. Second, waste washwater from the membrane filtration system is
captured and clarified on site, and returned to the raw water feed rather than
being piped to the Boise River for discharge as initially proposed. Uncertainty
about the ability to obtain a discharge permit in a time frame that would support
the project schedule led to this change. It is also more efficient overall because
wastewater is returned to the head of the plant and not "wasted" back to the
river.
The project Guaranteed Maximum Price in January 2004 based on the final
design is $16,844 498. The non-binding Target Cost of Work and the
Guaranteed Maximum Price provided in Response No.06 follow an identical
division-by-division breakdown format and provide a detailed itemization of
changes in project costs.
United Water believes COM did an excellent job of estimating an initial cost
($16 112 997) with only a 100/0 design basis, and then eighteen months later
provided a guaranteed cost ($16,844 498) after the design and project scope
was fully identified. This represents only a 4.340/0 change over the original
estimate from which they had essentially no design to guide them.

EIGHTH PRODUCTION REQUEST OF THE COMMISSION STAFF
PreparerlRecordholderlSponsoring Witness:Scott Rhead
Telephone: 208-362-7345
Title: Managing Engineer
REQUEST NO. 203:
Reference Rhead p., lines 15-18 and Rhead Revised Exhibit No. 11. What is
the source of the $12.87 million cost for the CWTP as listed in the tables of
Exhibit No. 11 and as used to compute the cost per gallon for the plant? Why
wasn t the $16.84 million Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) amount or the
$18.20 million amount shown in the attachment to United Water s response to
Staff Request No.08 used instead for the computation?
RESPONSE NO. 203:
The cost per gallon computation for the Columbia WTP was specifically focused
on the treatment complex portion of the project, to facilitate a representative
comparison with other treatment plant projects. The treatment complex portion
of the project Guaranteed Maximum Price totaled approximately $12.87 million
and includes the following elements:
Pressure and gravity flow yard piping
2 MG Clearwell
Raw water strainers
Membrane filtration units and control system
Membrane system backwash blowers and air compressors
Membrane system monthly cleaning system
Sodium hypochlorite generation , storage and feed systems
Caustic soda storage and feed system
Waste washwater clarification basins (3)
Ferric chloride storage and feed system
Reclaimed water pump station
Treated water pumping facilities
Treatment plant building structure
Building mechanical HV AC , plumbing, fire protection
Building and treatment process electrical systems
Instrumentation and control system
On-site sanitary system
Plant laboratory
Stormwater management facilities
Landscaping
Security and fencing
Roadways and parking
The purpose of the comparison was to provide a way to evaluate CWTP against
other membrane plants. No two plants are ever the same. The $16.84 million
GMP or $18.20 million projected total cost included items that make an equitable
comparison to other plants nearly impossible. The major items removed for
comparison purposes include raw water pump station , 30" raw water pipeline
design , utility company upgrades, land , company labor, overheads, AFUDC , etc.

Director - Regulatory Business
REQUEST NO. 206
In addition to the FAS 87 and FAS 132 Disclosures already provided, please provide a
report from the Company s actuaries that illustrates all of the following for the past five
yea rs:
RESPONSE:
Development of the Actuarial Value of Plan Assets
Detail of Employer Contributions
Development of Credit Balance/(Funding Deficiency) Minimum Funding
Standard Account
Development of the Current Annual Cost and the Minimum Required
Contribution
Development of Normal Cost
Development of Unfunded Frozen Actuarial Liability
Schedule of Outstanding Balances and Amortization Amounts; Charges
to the Minimum Funding Standard Account
Schedule of Outstanding Balances and Amortization Amounts; Credits to
the Minimum Funding Standard Account
Development of the Maximum Deductible Contribution
Calculation of the Full Funding Limitation
In the Company s response to Audit Request No. 58, the Company supplied Staff with
copies of all Actuarial Reports and all filed Form 5500's for the last five years. In the
above request, Staff acknowledges receipt of this material and requests information in
addition to that sent. Through discussions with our actuary, it was determined that with
one exception , there was little more information available to respond to this question
other than what had been supplied. In a discussion with Donn English of the Idaho
Public Utilities Commission Staff on March 11 , 2005, he was informed of the discussion
with the actuary and told of the one additional piece of information that could be
provided. Mr. English was accepting of this and was asked to let the Company know
what else he required that he believed had not been provided. As of the date of this
response , the Company has not received any further requests from Mr. English
therefore the Company considers this response complete.
The information that follows was verbally provided to Mr. English during the March 11
2005 conversation.
ERISA funding requirements are determined on a plan basis and not on a specific
Company basis, Le., Idaho. In years where the minimum required contribution is greater
than zero, the minimum is allocated over the participating companies in the plan.
years where the minimum contribution is zero and no contribution is made, there is no
allocation needed or performed.
United Water Resources Inc. Retirement Plan - No contributions were required or made
to the Plan for the five plan years covering 2000 through 2004. All information requested
can be found on the Schedule B of Form 5500, which had been supplied in Audit
Request No. 58.
United Waterworks Inc. Employees' Retirement Plan - Bargaining Unit -
contributions were required or made for the three plan years covering 2000 through
2002. As stated above, the information requested can be found on the Schedule B of
Form 5500. For years 2003 and 2004, the minimum contribution and/or actual
contribution was greater than zero and was allocated to the various companies
participating in the plan which is also shown in all of the cost information and actuary
reports previously provided.
Lastly, the part of the question requesting the development of the Unfunded Frozen
Actuarial Liability doesn t apply to United Water, and is therefore not applicable.

United Water & TractebeVTeris-Suez US
Quotation Information, Assumptions, and Requirements:
Policy Period - Our quotation is based on a January 1 , 2005 effective date. Subject to the terms
and conditions indicated below, the quoted rates are guaranteed for 12 months with the first
renewal scheduled for January 1, 2006. This proposal is valid for 90 days from the date of this
decision up to the effective date quoted. The presence of any rate guarantee is not a guarantee to
renew the contract.
Guarantee Terms - Aetna reserves the right to recalculate rates in the event of any of the
following:
Requested change in effective date;
The final benefit provisions, account structure, or services change from those
proposed;
The number of enrolled employees changes by more than 15% from that identified
in this quote;
Final enrollment does not meet the minimum participation requirements;
New or changes to legislation or regulations that affect t~e benefits payable
eligibility or contractual provisions.
Plan Offering - Our quotation is contingent on Aetna being the only dental plan offered (total
replacement). Dual Option allows members to switch between plans during annual enrollment
only. Note that Aetna s PPO plan is referred to as "PDN" in Texas.
Funding/Rating - The DMO plan is offered on a community rated, prospectively insured basis.
The PPO plan is offered on a prospectively insured basis and, at renewal, may take into account
the customer s own experience to determine the appropriate rating action.
Producer Compensation - All fully insured rates are quoted net of commissions.
Enrollment Assumptions - Our quotation is based on the census submitted which indicates
approximately 3451 total eligible employees and COBRA participants with approximately 3451
enrolled in the dental plan.
EmployerlEmployee Contributions & Participation - This proposal assumes that United
Water will contribute 500/0 towards the cost of employee coverage and at least 50% towards the
cost of dependent coverage regardless of plan selected. Minimum participation requirement for
this contribution structure is 75% of total eligible lives.
Eligibility - Our quotation assumes employees must be full time, scheduled to work at least 25
hours a week, to be eligible for coverage. Dependent children are covered to age 19 or age 25 ifa regularly enrolled student.

Contract Situs - The primary contract situs is Connecticut. Separate DMO contracts will be
issued for Arizona, California, New Jersey, and Texas
~ DMO Location Availability - Please refer to the network access .report for a detailed access
summary
~ PPO Location Availability -Please refer to the network access report for a detailed access
summary.
Eligibility Transmission - Our proposal assumes we will receive eligibility information monthly
or more frequently. Submission of eligibility information by more than one location or via
multiple methods may result in additional charges. Costs associated with any custom
programming necessary to accept eligibility infonnation are excluded. During the installation
we can review all available methods of submitting eligibility information and identify the best
approach.
Obtaining & Uploading Prior Carrier History - There is no cost associated with receiving
claim history files electronically from the prior carrier if it can be loaded into ACAS using a
standard transfer program. Charges associated with non-standard transfers will be 'assessed
separately based on complexity and format requirements. If the data cannot be transferred
electronically, there will be an additional charge as accumulators would need to be updated
manually for all members. The cost would be based on the number of members requiring
accumulator updates. If requested, we will accept deductible credits via prior carrier EOB copies
from members at no additional co , either at the time a claim is submitted or a recalculation of a
claim is requested. The cost of obtaining claim history from the prior carrier is excluded from
the proposed pricing.
HIP AA - Plans are compliant with all portions of the HIP AA regulations that apply to dental
programs.
Policies and Claim Settlement Practices - Our quotation assumes our standard policy
provisions and claim settlement practices will apply. This includes our standard limitations and
exclusions, including missing tooth and late entrant provisions for employees who enroll more
than 31 days after fIrst becoming eligible for coverage.
Our quotation assumes no true open enrollments will be allowed except at the initial open
enrollment for the first year of the plan with Aetna. The proposed plans and premiums do not
cover Work-in-Progress. (Note: Certain state requirements may supercede the above conditions.
Continuity of coverage rules will apply for members currently enrolled in the employer s dental
plan. The group contract alone fonDS the agreement under which the payment of benefIts is
made. HIP AA will not apply to the dental coverage.

legal defense of disputed benefit payments.
~ Run-In Claim Processing - Expenses associated with run-in claims from the prior plan (claims
incurred prior to the effective date of the plan) are excluded from the proposed pricing scenarios.
