NOTICE OF VACATED HEARING

ORDER NO. 28850

On July 18, 2001, Avista Corporation dba Avista Utilities—Washington Water
Power Division (Idaho) filed an Application for authority to implement an electric Schedule 66
Power Cost Adjustment (PCA) surcharge. The Company proposes a 14.7% surcharge for an
effective date of September 15, 2001. The proposed surcharge will be in addition to an existing
4.8% surcharge which is scheduled to expire January 31, 2002. The Company is proposing that
both surcharges remain in place until December 31, 2003. The incremental increase of 14.7%
will result in a total surcharge in effect under Schedule 66 of 19.4% ($23.6 million). To further
reduce the deferred power cost balance, the Company is proposing to accelerate amortization of
the credit balance related to the recent monetization of a Portland General Electric (PGE) sale
agreement.
Pursuant to prior Commission Notice, a public hearing in this case was scheduled to
take place on September 12 (13), 2001 in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.
YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that because of September 11, 2001 events in this
country and related restrictions on travel, the Commission finds it necessary to cancel the
September 12 (13) Coeur d’Alene hearing in Case No. AVU-E-01-11.
O R D E R
In consideration of the foregoing and as more particularly described above, IT IS
HEREBY ORDERED and the Commission does hereby vacate the September 12 (13) hearing in
Case No. AVU-E-01-11.
