Please describe your comment briefly:
Once again we as customers are being asked to pay for another power program to conserve
power at the same time we are looking at a general rate case. I feel until the general rate
case is resolved the DSM case should be put on hold. Rocky Mountain power just received a
energy fuel cost adjustment this year and now they want a two percent DSM increase in rates
to be followed by a average fourteen percent rate increase in a general rate case. This looks
like piecemeal rate making to me why don i t we just settle this case in the general rate
case or as I suggested hold this case until the general rate case is resolved. One further
thought the Government has had to cut cost by cutting the pay of their employees. school
districts have also cut their budgets and many business are struggling just to survive. the
senior citizens did not receive their cost of living increase this year. So maybe it might be
time for the commission to order Rocky Mountain Power to hold off their Piecemeal Rate Making
program until next year. Let us get back on our feet before asking for more money, that a lot
of us do not have at this time. I am sure that Rocky Mountain Power would Survive until next
year.
