On September 30,2013,Avista Corporation dba Avista Utilities applied for an Order
finding that it prudently incurred $25,380,857 in electric and natural gas energy efficiency
expenditures from January 1,2010 through December 31,2012.’On November 5,2013,the
Commission issued a Notice of Application and Notice of Modified Procedure that set a
February 4,2014 comment deadline and a February 18,2014 reply deadline.See Order No.
32921.
Commission Staff subsequently notified the Commission that Staff needs additional
time to review this matter before filing comments.Staff thus asked the Commission to extend
the comment and reply deadlines respectively to March 6 and March 20,2014.Staff represents
that Avista concurs with the Staff’s request.There are no other parties to the case.
Based upon these uncontested representations,the Commission finds that good cause
exists to amend the comment and reply deadlines previously set in Order No.32921.
