Commission,
I would like to have intervener status in this case. I offer the following comments
I own and operate 6 six small hydro plants that sell power in Idaho to PacifiCorp and Idaho power as QF's .
I believe the current surrogate avoided Resource model should continue as is for hydro's
Tax Credits and qualification for REC sale is not by any means a sure thing for hydro. Qualification if any is site specific
not generic. Whatever benefit is derived should stay with producer not the buyer.
Many of the original contracts I signed in the mid eighties wil be completed in 10 to 12 years. i would like the current SAR
model to continue as is for hydro .
Thanks for the opportunity to comment.
