I live in Hayden Idaho and have only Avista to supply all energyutilities (Gas and Electric )to my
residence.We were told by lawyers at a meeting with Avista in Spokane that the CEO and all board members
would receive 15 million dollars or more each for selling control of a Vista to Hydro One.Hydro one's
supposed resources primarily are copper wire and Ontario Canada entrappedcustomers all outside the IPUC'sjurisdiction.How can Hydro One of Canada meet the demands response policies of a growing Idaho when
Capital will be siphoned off completely outside of the IPUCs control destroying the title 61 requirement to
provide a "Efficient"utility service to Idaho customers?Efficiency defined by a cost-benefit ratio.inThankyouforyourkindconsiderationtothispressingmatter.

Subject:NO TO HYDRO ONE PURCHASE OF AVISTA
I have lived and worked here in the northern 2 counties of Idaho all of my74years.And,I am incensed by and strenuously object to the proposedsaleofAvista(formerly Washington Water Power)to a Canadian company,Hydro One.
I watched what happened in our neighbor State of Montana after MontanaPower,which provided very reasonable rates for electricity to Montanaresidents,was sold to "private corporations",which then proceeded toessentialdismantlethatonce"public utility"and ending up costing Montanaresidentsmuchmoreforpower.
If private US corporations can cause the harm that was done to the citizensofMontanaonceMontanaPowerwasprivatized,I shudder to think whatcouldhappentoweAvistacustomersshouldthissaletakeplace,particularly if Hydro One were able to resell to what was Avista to anothercountry(countries).
Sincerely,
Don Swanstrom
