II. BACKGROTJTTD
The Company's present Schedule 51 electric line extension tariffincorporates the
principle of average costing for electrical facilities commonly used in extending service.
The tariff sets forth "Basic and Exce,ptional Costs", which are costs based on recent
average acfual costs for facilities such as tansformers and conduit which are used
consistently for electric line extensions. The Basic and Exceptional Costs have a fixed
and variable component, with the variable compone,nt stated on a cost-per-foot basis. The
average costing principle incorporated in the Company's tariff has worked well and the
Company is not proposing to change the conceptual structure of the tariff.
Detailed below are the Company's proposed changes to Schedule 5l and included
with this filing are workpapers which provide support for the proposed changes.

III. CONSTRUCTION ALLOWAIICES
In this filing, the Company has updated the allowances applicable to new
residential, commercial and industrial customer's services. For purposes of calculating the
revised allowances, the Company is continuing to utilize an embedded cost methodology
approach that is designed to ensure that investnent in distibution/terminal facilities for
each new customer will be similar to the embedded costs of the same facilities reflected in
base rates. Any costs in excess of the allowance would be paid by the new customer as a
Contribution in Aid of Construction. The Company utilized its Cost of Service study from
its most recently concluded general rate case filing (AW-E-21-01), updated for the base
rates approved in the Settlement Agreement and approved in OrderNo. 35156, as the basis
of the embedded cost calculation. Below is a summary of the proposed allowance changes:

IV. AVERAGE COSTS
The Distribution Engineering Deparfinent at Avista is primarily tasked with the
development and maintenance of the Company's Construction & Material Standards.
Periodically, Distribution Engineering will update the Constuction & Material Standards
PAGE 3
I in order to comply with the National Electric Safety Code ('NESC"). These Construction
2 &. Material Standards are reflective of the NESC's most recent code revisions. The
3 standard designs in this filing have not changed and are consistent with those reflected in
4 this frling.
5 As detailed on proposed tariff sheets 51H and 5lI, the Company is proposing to
6 update the primary, secondary, service and transformer average costs. Below is a

20 The primary driver of the increase in variable underground primary and secondary
2l costs as shown above, is due to an increase in cost of two inch and three inch conduit
22 during 2021. Cwrent market conditions for resin, the primary component of conduit has
23 been in higher demand then manufacturers can supply. [n addition, manufacturers located
AVISTA'S ANNUAL ELECTRIC LINE EXTENSION FILING PAGE 4
1 in the gulf of Texas, which represent 75o/o of all resin manufacturers, were taken offline
2 for over a month, some for several months due to hurricanes and storms, further affecting
3 the supply in the market. Per the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Producer Price Index,
4 thermoplastic resins from Nov 2020 to Nov 2021 increased nearly 50%.

14 V. ADMINISTRATIYE CIIAI\GES
15 The Company has come to realize that when discussing line extensions,
16 conversions, or relocations of existing service with new and/or existing customers, there
17 is difficulty in understanding the provisions outlined in the Company's tariff Schedule 5l
l8 regarding Basic Cost. In an effort to make Schedule 5l easier for customers to understand
19 and for our construction employees to apply, the Company is proposing to update its
20 terminology to avoid confusion.
2l The Company is proposing to change the term "Basic Cost" to "Basic and
22 Exceptional Cost". The Basic and Exceptional Cost will continue to cover all costs
23 necessary to construct the line extension. In practice, this change will have no impact on
AVISTA'S ANNUAL ELECTRIC LINE EXTENSION FILING PAGE 5
I the costs paid by customers for line extensions. It will simply make the costs of line
2 extensions easier to understand for customers and align the language with other internal
3 documents which the Company uses when working with customers.

5 VI. COMMTIMCATIONS AI\[D SERVICE OF APPLICATION
6 In conformance with RP 125, this Application will be brought to the attention of
7 the Company's affected customers. Consistent with past practice, during the week of
8 March 21,2022, the Company will send a letter to those developers and builders that may
9 be affected by the proposed changes to inform them of the Company's request.

1I VTI. REOTJEST FOR RELIEF
L2 The Company requests that the Commission issue an order approving the update in
13 costs to Schedule 51 to become effective May 1, 2022. The Company requests that the
14 matter be processed under the Commission's Modified Procedure rules through the use of
l5 written comments.

When two or more Customers apply concurrently for service
from the same Line Extension, each will receive an Allowance
up to their proportion of the Basic and Exceptional Cost of the
line extension.
Allowances shall be granted only against the Basic and
Exceptional Cost of the current project and not against any
part of an earlier or future extension.
The Allowance will be equalto the Basic and Exceptional Cost

primary underground circuit ($1 1.15 per foot).
2. Second Customer takes service within five years
using 600 feet of the original extension.
3. Both Customers share the first 600 feet equally:
600 ft x $1 1.1 S/ft x lz = $3,345.4. The Second Customer's payment of $3,345, will be
refunded to the First Customer to reduce his
investment in the 600 feet to $3,345. The First
Custome/s investment in the remaining 400 feet
remains at $4,460. ($1 1,1 50-$3,345-$3,345=$4,460)

extensions to serve individual Residential Customers.
Before the start of construction, the Customer must submit a written
application for service and pay an extension cost to the Company
which is computed as follows:
Basic Gost- Allowance+ Customer-Requested Costs- Cost Reductions- (one) Design Fee of $150 (if paid)+ Share of Previous Extension
extension cost
1)"Basic Cost" is the cost of the Service Circuit, Secondary
Circuit, Transformer and Primary Circuit computed from the
rates llsted in this Schedule, along with the cost of labor
and/or materials which are necessary to construct the Line
Extension. The meters and metering facilities used by the
Company for billing purposes are provided at no cost to the
Customer.
"Cost Reduction" is a decrease allowed when the Company
uses lower-cost construction methods or allows the Customer
to do some of the work. All facilities provided by the
Customer must meet or exceed the Company's specifications.
The Cost Reduction may only reduce the Customer's total
cost of construction to $0.00; no payment shall be given to the
customer.
'Allowance" is a credit to each Customer who has at least
2500 kwh per year of new load. The Allowance will be
applied first to the Basic Cost of the Service Circuit, second to
the Basic Cost of the Secondary Circuit, third to the Basic
