NEWS RELEASE: Customer hearing scheduled on water utility’s application to change rates.
BOISE (Nov. 9, 2023) – A customer hearing will be held in Idaho Falls on Nov. 27 to take
testimony on an application from Falls Water Company to change the rates it charges customers
to provide service.
Commission staff and Falls Water entered into a settlement that would result in an approximate

revenue would help recover increased operating expenses and costs associated with plant
additions.

the settlement will be accepted.
The customer hearing will be held on Monday, Nov. 27, at the Idaho Falls Elks Lodge, 640 Elva
