Re: Case No. IPC-E-07-02, Order No. 30274
Exemption from the Company's Rule C Provisions Regarding Aggregated Meter Reading
Dear Ms. Hanian
Pursuant to Order No. 30274 in Case No. IPC-E-07-02,ldaho Power Company ("Company")
hereby requests to add an additional customer to the list of customers exempt from Rule C's aggregated
meter reading provisions. As outlined in the abbreviated procedure approved by the ldaho Public
Utilities Commission ("Commission") in Order No. 30274, the Company is providing the customer's
name, city location, and an explanation of why aggregation is appropriate for review priorto aggregating
meter readings. The Commission envisioned that the Commission Staff would notify the Commission
if it has an objection to the customer proposed for aggregation (Order No. 30274, p. 3).
The ldaho Central Credit Union ("ICCU') facility in Chubbuck recently applied for Alternate
Distribution Service ('ADS") under Schedule 46. ln response, ldaho Power installed upgraded
transformers, an automatic transfer switch, and two primary metering packages. Because the automatic
transfer switch requires a separate meter to facilitate independent operation, which is the standard
alternative distribution configuration, the optimal metering solution is to aggregate the meter readings.
Aggregated meter readings for ADS were specifically envisioned in Order No. 30274, and will ensure
the Customer is appropriately billed for the services received.
Because it is anticipated that the required facilities will be installed by September, the Company
respectfully requests a response to this request for exemption by August 31't. lf the ICCU facility in
Chubbuck is granted an exemption, the Company will submit an updated list of Customers exempt from
Rule C's aggregated meter reading provisions to the Commission.
lf you have any questions regarding this request, please contact Regulatory Analyst Grant
Anderson at 388-6498 or [e-mail].
Sincerely,
