Dear Sir,
We have read with concern about Rocky Mounta Power Company's recent reuest to
increase residential electrc rates by 6.1 percent. Ths increase, if allowed, will be a burden on
famlies already strapped by higher costs of living. Many families who have but a single wage
earer and maybe are unemployed, have not had a cost of living raise for at least 2 years and
maybe more. Senior citizens, who live on a fixed income have not received a cost of living raise
for at least 2 years, due to the Governent's using the Deparent of Labr's Consumer Price
Index to measure actu cost of living, which we feel is faulty. We all know the cost of food,
clothg, gasoline, propane and other sources of heat, car and home repais, and medications
have all risen substatially in the last 2 years. We urge you to decline ths increase to Rock
Mounta Power Company. Council the Power Company and other utilities to live with their
means, as the average citizen must do to make ends meet.
Sincerely, Ronald and LaRue Curis

Soda Springs, Idao, 83276

Since I am on a fixed income with no cost of living increase for Social Security the past
two years, high medical bills and everything else going up including food and gas, I can' t
afford another increase. Regarding public street lighting, that is added to the property tax
(which also went up last year as the homeowner i s exemption went down). I not only speak for
myself but for other senior citizens in the same boat. I vote for NO increase in prices.

Are you kidding me?! Another rate increase? No way. How are people to afford it in this
economy! This is craziness. Rate increase equals more people on govt. assistance. Every
business owner has had a decrease in their profit margin. RMP shouldn' t be an exception.
Really? ! . . . . . . UGH!
