)
On December 18,2012,the Commission issued final Order No.32697.Avoided cost
rates calculated based on the Commission’s findings in the Order and provided as Attachments
A,B and C were computed in a maimer that recognizes the peak-hour capacity contribution of
individual resource types in conjunction with each utility’s summer and winter capacity deficit
positions.Logic in the spreadsheet used to compute the rates caused capacity payments to be
suspended in some instances,after they had been included in prior years,whenever a utility’s
capacity deficit position switched from one season to another.This unintended consequence
impacted only Avista’s rates for solar and canal drop hydro projects.The corrected avoided cost
rate calculation sheets are attached.

season and is located on a man-made waterway that conveys water primarily intended for irrigation or that primarily conveys irrigation
return flows.
