Proposed Electric Increase
Q.What is the proposed electric revenue increase in
32 this case and how is the Company proposing to spread the
33 total increase by rate schedule?
34 The proposed electric increase is $32,114,000, orA.
35 14.0% over present base tariff rates in effect. The
36 proposed general increase over present billing rates,
37 including all other rate adjustments (PCA,DSM and
Ehrbar, Di 3
Avista Corporation
'1 Residential Exchange), is 13.1%.
2 The proposed general increase of $32,114,000 has been
3 spread by rate schedule on a basis which: 1) moves the
4 rates for all the schedules closer to the cost of providing
5 service, and 2) results in a reasonable range in the
6 proposed percentage .increase across the schedules. The
7 proposed percentage increase by rate schedule is as

17 Schedule 3 of Exhibit No. 14.
18 Q.What is the proposed increase for a residential
19 electric customer with average consumtion?
20 A.The proposed increase for a residential customer
21 using an average of 964 kWhs per month is $11.40 per month,
22 or an 14.6% increase in their electric bill. As part of
23 tha t increase,the Company is proposing that the
24 basic/customer charge be increased from $4.60 to $6.75 per
25 month. The present bill for 964 kWhs is $77.95 compared to
26 the proposed level of $89.35,including all rate
Ehrbar, Di 4
Avista Corporation
1 adjustments.
2 Q.Why is the Comany proposing an increase of this
3 magnitude in the customer/basic charge?
4 A.A significant portion of the Company's costs are
5 fixed and do not vary with customer usage.These costs
6 include distribution plant and operating costs to provide
7 reliable service to customers.Given the large disparity
8 between the level of fixed customer costs and the present
9 level of the basic charge, the Company believes that it is
10 appropriate to recover a more reasonable level of these
11 fixed customer costs through the basic charge.Section 4
12 of my testimony provides further details on our proposal.
13 Q.Is the Company proposing any changes to the
14 present rate structures within its electric service
15 schedules?
16 A.No.The Company is not proposing any changes
17 to the present rate structures within its electric
18 schedules.
19 Q. Where do you show the proposed changes in rates
20 wi thin the electric service schedules?
21 A. This information is shown in detail on page 3,
22 Schedule 3 of Exhibit No. 14.
23 Proposed Na tùral Gas Increase
24 Q.How is the Comany proposing to spread the
25 overall natural gas increase of $2,575,000, or 3.6%, by

This information is also shown on page 1, Schedule 6
10 of Exhibit No. 14. The Company utilized the results of the
11 natural gas cost of service study, sponsored by Company
12 witness Ms. Knox, as a guide in spreading the overall
13 revenue increase to its natural gas service schedules.
14 Q.What is the proposed monthly increase for a
15 residential natural gas customr with average usage?
16 A.The increase for a residential customer using an
17 average of 63 therms of gas per month would be $2.77 per
18 month, or 4.9%.A bill for 63 therms per month would
19 increase from the present level of $56.03 to a proposed
20 level of $58.80, including all present rate adjustments.
21 As part of this increase, the Company is proposing an
22 increase in the monthly customer charge of $2.75 per month,
23 from $4.00 to $6.75, to recover a more reasonable level of
24 fixed costs.

17 Q. Wha t rationale did the Company use in developing
18 the proposed general increase by rate schedule?
19 A. The Company used the results of the cost of
20 service study (sponsored by Ms. Knox) as a guide to spread
21 the general increase. The spread of the proposed increase
22 generally results in the rates of return for the various
23 service schedules moving approximately one-quarter closer
24 to the overall rate of return (unity), with the exception
25 of the Street & Area Lighting schedule.The table below
26 shows the relative rates of return (schedule rate of return

12 general increase on a unifo~ percentage basis to the rate

14 As explained by Ms. Knox, Avista recently completed a
15 new load study, and incorporated the results of that study
16 into its cost of service study. In addition, Ms. Knox also
17 explains a change to the peak credit methodology for demand
18 allocation.While we believe it is reasonable and
19 appropriate to use the cost of service study results as the
20 basis for rate spread, we have tempered the amount of
21 movement toward unity proposed in this case due primarily
22 to the overall level of the proposed increase. The Company
23 may propose additional movement toward unity in future
24 proceedings.
25 Proposed Rate Design
26 Q.Where in your Exhibit do you show a comparison of
Ehrbar, Di 10
Avista Corporation
1 the present and proposed rates within each of the Company's
2 electric service schedules?
3 A.Page 3, Schedule 3 of Exhibit No. 14 shows a
4 comparison of the present and proposed rates within each of
5 the schedules, which I will describe below.Column (a)
6 shows the rate/billing components under each of the
7 schedules, column (b) shows the base tariff rates within
8 each of the schedules, column (c) shows the present rate
9 adjustments applicable under each schedule, and column (d)

11 proposed general rate increase to the rate components
12 within each of the schedules, column (f) shows the proposed
13 billing rates and column (g) shows the proposed base tariff
14 rates.
15 Q.Is the Company proposing any changes to the
16 existing rate structures wi thin its rate schedules?
17
18
A.
Q.
No, it is not.
Turning to Residential Service Schedule 1, could
19 you please describe the present rate structure under this
20 schedule?
21 A.Yes.Residential Schedule 1 has a present
22 customer or basic charge of $4.60 per month and two energy
23 rate blocks:0-600 kWhs and over 600 kWhs.The present
24 base tariff rate for the first 600 kWhs per month is 6.950
25 cents per kWh and 7.867 cents for all kWhs over 600.
Ehrbar, Di 1 i
Avista Corporation
1 Q.How does the Company propose to spread the
2 proposed general revenue increase of $13,624,000 to
3 Schedule l?
4 A.The Company proposes to increase the monthly
5 customer charge from $4.60 to $6.75. The proposed increase
6 to the energy rate for the 0-600 kWh block is 0.959
7 cents/kWh and the proposed increase to the over 600 kWh
8 block is 0.960 cents/kWh, of the increase applied to the
9 first block rate.
10 Q.In AVU-E-08-01 & AVU-G-08-01, Staff Witness Lobb
11 expressed an interest in exploring residential rate block
12 sizes and differentials, and whether there are economes of
13 scale relative to the monthly charges paid by dual service
14 customers.Please provide your thoughts on these matters
15 and their applicability in this filing.
16 A.In reviewing the first item, adjustment of block
17 sizes, the Company did review its current block rate
18 structure. As noted previously, the Company's residential
19 rate Schedule 1 consists of a basic charge and two blocks
20 (0-600 kWh's, and above 600 kWh's).
21 i believe that this two-tier rate structure sends a
22 reasonable price signal to all usage in. excess of base
23 load, and that any additional divisions would be somewhat
24 arbitrary. Further, adding a third block would shift more
25 fixed cost recovery to a more volatile block and would
Ehrbar, Di 12
Avista Corporation
1 create revenue volatility for the Company, and bill
2 volatility for customers.The proposed tariff rate for
3 residential usage in excess of 600 kWhs per month is 8.827
4 cents per kWh.This rate is well above the Company's
5 levelized 20 year forecast of $0.07956 per kWh2 and
6 reflects recovery of a significant level of fixed costs.
7 Further rate inversion could result in additional fixed
8 costs recovered through an even higher tail-block rate,
9 while usage billed in that block would vary considerably
10 based on weather.
11 Further, as I will discuss later in my testimony, I
12 believe that many high use electric customers are electric
13 space and water heat customers.I believe many of those
14 customers are low-income customers who cannot convert to
15 natural gas, or do not have natural gas available
16 (apartments, rural, etc.).Adding a more expensive third
17 tier could further increase the bills for these customers.
18 In 2009, the Company examined the average annual usage of
19 its Idaho residential all-electric (no natural gas)
20 customers that have received LIHEAP assistance and those
21 that have not received assistance.Over a twelve month
22 period, the average annual usage for customers that had
23 received assistance was 1,900 kWhs greater than for those
24 customers that did not. Looking at a small sample of the
2 2009 Avista Electric Integrated Resource Plan, Page 7-1. The forecast shows $79.56 per mWh.
Ehrbar, Di 13
Avista Corporation
1 customers that have received assistance, it was apparent
2 that many of these households utilize electricity for home-
3 heating. Further inverting residential rates could have a
4 disproportionate effect on these customers' bills.
5 Q.Did the Company have a third-tier in previous
6 years?
7 A.Yes. Prior to August 1999, the Company did have
8 a third-tier in Idaho.The Company in its 1998 General
9 Rate Case (WWP-E-98-11) testified that the third tier
10 provided the impetus for residential customers to switch
11 from electric space and water heating to natural gas
12 throughout the 1980's and 1990's.The findings at that
13 time were that most customers who could convert had
14 converted, and that nearly all new homes since then install
15 natural gas heating equipment. The remaining customers, as
16 noted previously, either could not afford to convert or
17 lived in areas where natural gas was either not available
18 (rural) or practical (existing apartments).It. appears
19 that this still holds true today, and as previously stated,
20 I believe the addition of a higher rate third block could
21 have a disproportionate effect on low-income customers.
22 Q.Are you aware that Idaho Power recently added a
23 third tier to their residential rate schedule?
24 A.Yes, the Company is aware that the Commission
25 recently instituted a third-tier for Idaho Power.Staff
Ehrbar, Di 14
Avista Corporation
1 wi tness Lanspery notes in his testimony in that case (IPC-
2 E-08-10) at page 3:
3 Idaho Power, like most utili ties in the Northwest, has
4 low embedded costs of generation resources used to
5 meet its average loads but finds itself capacity
6 constrained through much of the summer and deep winter7 months.
8
9 Avista does not find itself nearly as capacity constrained
10 as Idaho Power, particularly in the summer months.Idaho
11 Power has far more irrigation and air conditioning load in
12 the summer than Avista which causes a greater need for
13 higher (variable) cost peaking resources. As such, I don't
14 see a need for any additional price signals, beyond those
15 discussed later in my testimony.
16 Q.Is the size of the first block (600 kWh's)
17 generally representative of "base load"?
18 A.Yes, I do believe that this block is still a
19 relevant.One independent source to verify this is the
20 "Housing Choice Voucher Guidebook" provided by the U. s.
21 Housing and Urban Development. 3 This guidebook shows that
22 the average base usage for lighting, refrigeration, and
23 cooking is approximately 459 kWh's to 714 kWh's per month,
24 depending on the size of house.This range of usage
25 averages out at 587 kWh's, very close to the size of the
26 Company's first block.Further, based on regression
3 Chapter 18, Allowances for Utilties and Other Services, Page 18-5
(http://www.hud.gov loffces/adm/hudclips/guidebooks/7420.1OG/7 420g18GUID.pdf)
Ehrbar, Di 15
Avista Corporation
1 results from the Company's weather normalization model, the
2
3
4
5
6
average residential base load usage is 651 kWh's.
Q.Please address the issue of rate differentials
and how that was addressed in this filing.
A.After reviewing the rate differential for
Schedule 1 while preparing this case,the Company believes
7 that the differential between the two blocks is appropriate
8 at approximately 0.9 cents per kWh.This equate to an
9 approximate 12% higher rate for the tail-block. Absent any
10 compelling evidence to the contrary, the Company believes
11 that an approximate 12% differential is fair.
12 Are there any economies of scale which couldQ.
13 resul t in lower monthly charges for dual service customrs?
14 For dual service (electric and natural gas)A.
15 customers, two meters are required, and therefore there are
16 no economies of scale because the meters cannot be
17 combined.As for meter reading, our Idaho service
18 terri tory is read remotely via the AM system the Company
19 deployed in the past several years. While there would be
20 savings if a traditional meter reader visited a customer's
21 premise, with the AM deployment, there are no incremental
22 savings.This leaves potential billing savings.In
23 reviewing the cost of billing, the average cost of a bill
24 is 54.3 cents, which consists of bill preparation, paper
25 supplies, postage, etc. One could argue that 54.3 cents is
Ehrbar, Di 16
Avista Corporation
1 the true savings to dual service customers.
2 However, the Company believes that the basic charge
3 should recover far more than just the items noted above.
4 As such, while there may be some small level of savings in
5 this instance, far more fixed costs are not being recovered
6 in the basic charge, and our proposed move to $6.75 per
7 month for both natural gas and electric customers covers
8 only 24% and 21% of those fixed costs, respectively4.
9 Q.What is the average monthly electric usage for a
10 residential customer, and what is the effect of the
11 proposed increase on a customer's bill?
12 A.The average monthly usage for a residential
13 customer is 964 kWhs. Based on the proposed increase, the
14 average monthly increase would be $11.40, or 14.6%. The
15 present monthly bill for 964 kWhs of usage is $77.95 and
16 the proposed monthly bill would be $89.35.
17 Q.Turning to General Service Schedule 11, could you
18 please describe the present rate structure and rates under
19 that Schedule?
20 A.Yes.The present rate structure under the
21 schedule includes a monthly customer charge of$ 6.50, an
22 energy rate of 8.715 cents per kWh for all usage under
23 3,650 kWhs per month, and an energy rate of 7.433 cents per
4 These percentages derived from the proposed basic charge divded by the fixed costs identified by
Witness Knox Exhibit 13, Schedule 6, Page 4, line 28 and Schedule 3, Page 4, line 27, respectively. Total
fixed distribution related costs are $32.82 for electric and $28.61 for natural gas.
Ehrbar, Di 1 7
Avista Corporation
1 kWh for usage over 3,650 kWhs per month. There is also a
2 demand charge of $4.00 per kW for àii demand in excess of
3 20 kW per month. There is no charge for the first 20 kW of
4 demand.
5 Q.How is the Comany proposing to apply the
6 proposed general revenue increase of $4,145,000 to the
7 rates under Schedule 11?
8 A.The Company is proposing that the customer charge
9 be increased by $3.00, from $6.50 to $9.50 per month, and
10 that the demand charge (over 20 kW) be increased $0.75 per
11 kW, from $4.00 to $4.75. The remaining revenue increase for
12 the schedule is proposed to be recovered through a uniform
13 percentage increase of approximately 12.2% applied to the
14 two energy block rates.The increase in the first block
15 rate is 1.066 cents per kwh, and is 0.910 cents per kwh in
16 the second block rate.
17 Q.Why is the Company proposing to increase the
18 demnd charges for this schedule in this case?
19 A.The Company believes that it is important to
20 increase the demand charges in this Case for Schedule 11,
21 as well as for Schedules 21 and 25, by a percentage greater
22 than that to the volumetric rates.If demand charges are
23 not increased at least proportionately with energy charges,
24 customers who have a poor load factor (high peak demand
25 compared to average energy use) would see a lower
Ehrbar, Di 18
Avista Corporation
1 percentage increase in their bill than a comparable
2 customer with a good load factor (low peak demand compared
3 to average energy use).This result would not send the
4 appropriate price signal to commercial and industrial
5 customers, nor would it reflect the fact that the Company's
6 demand charges are well below the costs associated with
7 meeting customer's peak demand.
8 The Company's transmission and distribution system is
9 constructed to meet the collective peak demand of its
10 customers.Addi tionally, the Company must have adequate
11 resources available to meet peak demand.If customers
12 reduce their peak demand, it will reduce the need for
13 additional investment in these facilities and resources.
14 Customers need to receive the proper price signal to
15 encourage a reduction in their peak demand, i . e ., higher
16 demand charges.
17 Q.How does the level of demnd costs from the
18 Company's cost of service study compare to the present
19 demnd charges?
20 A.The system allocated demand cost from the cost of
21 service study is approximately $17 per kilowatt (kW) month,
22 while the present monthly demand charges range from $3.25-
23 $4. OO/kW, depending on service schedule.While the exact
24 level of costs classified as demand-related can be debated,
Ehrbar, Di 19
Avista Corporation
1 clearly, the level of demand charges are well below demand-
2 related costs.
3 Q.Turning to Large General Service Schedule 21,
4 could you please describe the present rate structure under
5 that schedule and how the Company is proposing to apply the
6 increase of $7,427,000 to the rates within the schedule?
7 A.Yes. Large General Service Schedule 21 consists
8 of a minimum monthly charge of $275.00 for the first 50 kW
9 or less, a demand charge of $3.50 per kW for monthly demand
10 in excess of 50 kW, and two energy block rates:5.765
11 cents per kWh for the first 250,000 kWhs per month and
12 4.919 cents per kWh for all usage in excess of 250,000
13 kWhs.
14 The Company is proposing that the present minimum
15 demand charge (for the first 50 kW or less) be increased by
16 $50 per month, from $275.00 to $325.00, and the demand
17 charge for kW over 50 per month be increased by $0.75 per
18 kW, from $3.50 to $4.25.The remaining revenue increase
19 for the schedule is proposed to be recovered through a
20 uniform percentage increase of approximately 13.4% applied
21 to the two energy block rates.The proposed increase for
22 the first 250,000 kWhs used per month under the schedule is
23 0.773 cents per kWh, and an increase of 0.660 cents per kWh
24 for usage over 250,000 kWhs per month.
25 Q.Turning to Extra Large General Service Schedule
26 25, could you please describe the present rate structure
Ehrbar, Di 20
Avista Corporation
1 under that schedule and how the Company is proposing to
2 apply the increase of $1,561,000 to the rates within the
3 schedule?
4 A.Yes. Extra Large General Service Schedule 25
5 consists of a minimum monthly charge of $10,000.00 for the
6 first 3,000 kVa or less, a demand charge of $3.25 per kVa
7 for monthly demand in excess of 3,000 kVa, and two energy
8 block rates:4.709 cents per kWh for the first 500,000
9 kWhs per month and 3.988 cents per kWh for all usage in
10 excess of 500,000 kWhs.
11 The Company is proposing that the present minimum
12 demand charge under the schedule be increased by $2,000 per
13 month, from $10,000 to $12,000, and the demand charge for
14 kVa over 3,000 per month be increased by $0.75 per kVa,
15 from $3.25 to $4.00.The remaining revenue increase for
16 the schedule is proposed to be recovered through a uniform
17 percentage increase of approximately 10.8% applied to the
18 two energy block rates. The proposed energy rate increase
19 for the first 500,000 kWhs used per month is 0.508 cents
20 per kWh and the increase for usage over 500,000 per month
21 is 0.431 cents per kWh.
22 Q.Did the Company consider imlemnting tim-of-use
23 (TOU) rates for Schedule 25 customers in this Case?
24 A.Yes, the Company considered time-of-use rates,
25 however, given the current recession and its effect on the
26 operations and financial condition of many of these
Ehrbar, Di 21
Avista Corporation
1 customers, the Company believed that this was not the
2 appropriate time to propose such a change. In 2009, four
3 Schedule 25 customers left that schedule. Three of these
4 customers shifted to Schedule 21, and one, after shifting
5 to Schedule 21, subsequently went out of business. All
6 four of these customers are/were in the forest products
7 industry. Of the other eight Schedule 25 accounts, two are
8 also in the forest products industry, two are in the silver
9 mining industry, two are higher education customers, one is
10 in the hospi tali ty industry, and one is a manufacturer.
11 The Company has met with these customers in the past
12 to discuss the possibility of implementing TOU rates in the
13 tuture.Most of these stated that it would be difficult
14 for them to shift a significant portion of their load to
15 off-peak periods because of business, labor or operational
16 issues.The Company will continue to consult with these
17 customers regarding the applicability of TOU rates.
18 Q.Could you please describe the service the Comany
19 provides to Clearwater Paper's Lewiston Plant?
20 A.Yes.Please note that Schedule 25P has. been
21 changed to reflect this customer's name change to
22 Clearwater Paper Corporation (Clearwater) from Potlatch.
23 In Commission Order No. 29418, dated January 15, 2004,
24 the Commission approved a ten-year Power Purchase and Sale
25 Agreement (Agreement)between Avista and Clearwater,
26 applicable to its Lewiston Plant.The Agreement became

10 Q.Could you please describe the application of the
11 proposed increase of $4,123,000 to the rates under Schedule
12 25P?
13 A.Yes.The Company is proposing that the present
14 minimum demand charge under the schedule be increased by
15 $2,000 per month, from $10,000 to $12,000, and the demand
16 charge for kVa over 3,000 per month be increased by $0.75
17 per kVa, from $3.25 to $4.00.The remaining revenue
18 increase for the schedule is proposed to be recovered
19 through an increase of 0.349 cents per kWh to the energy
20 charge.
21 Q.What changes is the Company proposing to the
22 rates under Puing Schedule 31 to recover the proposed
23 general revenue increase of $808, OOO?
24 A.The Company is proposing that the customer charge
25 be increased by $1.00, from $6.50 to $7.50 per month, with
26 the remaining revenue increase spread on a uniform
Ehrbar, Di 23
Avista Corporation
1 percentage basis of approximately 18.5% to the two energy
2 rate blocks under the schedule. The proposed increase in
3 the first block rate is 1.441 cents per kWh and the
4 increase in the second block rate is 1.228 cents per kwh.
5 Q. How is the Comany proposing to spread the
6 proposed revenue increase of $426,000 applicable to Street
7 and Area Light schedules, to the rates contained in those
8 schedules (Schedules 41-49)?
9 A.The Company proposes to increase present street
10 and area light (base) rates on a uniform percentage basis
11 of approximately 14.0%. The (base tariff) rates are shown
12 in the proposed tariffs for those schedules, contained in
13 Schedule 2 of Exhibit No. 14.

20 Q.Would you please review the Comany's present
21 rate schedules and the types of gas service offered under
22 each?
23 A.Yes. The Company's present Schedules 101 and 111
24 offer firm sales service.Schedule 101 generally applies
25 to residential and small commercial customers who use less
26 than 200 therms/month.Schedule 111 is generally for
Ehrbar, Di 25
Avista Corporation
1 customers who consistently use over 200 therms/month.
2 Schedule 131 provides interruptible sales service to
3 customers whose annual requirements exceed 250,000 therms.
4 Schedule 146 provides transportation/distribution service
5 for customer-owned gas Lor customers whose annual
6 requirements exceed 250,000 therms.
7 Q.The Comany also has rate Schedules 112 and 132
8 on file with the Comssion.Could you please explain
9 which customers are eligible for service under these
10 schedules?
11 A.Schedules 112 and 132 are in place to provide
12 service to customers who at one time were provided service
13 under Transportation Service Schedule 146. The rates under
14 these schedules are the same as those under Schedules 111
15 and 131 respectively, except for the application of
16 Temporary Gas Rate Adjustment Schedule 155.Schedule 155
17 is a temporary rate adjustment used to amortize the
18 deferred gas costs approved by the Commission in the prior
19 PGA.Because of their size, transportation service
20 customers are analyzed individually to determine their
21 appropriate share of deferred gas costs.If those
22 customers switch back to sales service, the Company
23 continues to analyze those customers individually;
24 otherwise,those customers would receive gas costs
25 deferrals which are not due them, thus the need for
26 Schedules 112 and 132.There are only 3 customers served

15 1 . 1 range.As such, a move of approximately 60% towards
16 unity for all schedules met that goal.
17 Proposed Rate Design
18 Could you please explain the present rate designQ.
19 within each of the Comany's present gas service schedules?
20 General Service Schedule 101 generallyA.Yes.
21 applies to residential and small commercial customers who
22 use less than 200 therms/month.The schedule contains a
23 single rate per therm for all gas usage and a monthly
24 customer/basic charge.
25 Large General Service Schedule 111 has a four-tier
26 declining-block rate structure and is generally for
Ehrbar, Di 28
Avista Corporation
1 customers who consistently use over 200 therms/month. The
2 schedule consists of a monthly minimum charge plus a usage
3 charge for the first 200 therms or less, and block rates
4 for 201-1,000 therms/month, 1001-10,000 therms/month and
5 usage over 10,000 therms/month.
6 Interruptible Sales Service Schedule 131 contains a
7 single rate per therm for all gas usage. The schedule also
8 has an annual minimum (deficiency) charge based on a usage
9 requirement of 250,000 therms per year.
10 Transportation Service Schedule 146 contains a $200
11 per month customer charge and contains a single rate per
12 therm for all gas usage. The schedule also has an annual
13 minimum (deficiency) charge based on a usage requirement of
14 250,000 therms per year.
15 Q.Is the Company proposing any changes to the
16 present rate structures contained in its gas service
17 schedules?
18
19
A.No, it is not.
Q.Where in your Exhibits do you show the present
20 and proposed rates for the Comany's natural gas service

Avista Corporation
1 Q.You stated earlier in your testimny that the
2 Company is proposing an overall increase of 4.4% to the
3 rates of General Service Schedule 101.Is the Company
4 proposing an increase to the present basicl customer charge
5 of $4. OO/month under the schedule?
6 A.Yes.The Company is proposing to increase the
7 basic/customer charge from $4.00 to $6.75 per month.
8 Q.Why is the Comany proposing an increase to .the
9 basic charge?
10 A.The Company believes that the customer/basic
11 charge should recover a reasonable portion of the fixed
12 costs of providing service. Support for this increase will
13 be provided later in my testimony.
14 Q.Wha t is the proposed increase to the rate per
15 therm under Schedule 101 in order to achieve the total
16 proposed revenue increase for the schedule?
17 A.The proposed increase to the energy rate under
18 the schedule is 0.033 cents per therm, as shown in column
19 (e), page 3, Schedule 6 of Exhibit No. 14.
20 Q.What would be the increase in a residential
21 customer's bill with average usage based on the proposed
22 increase for Schedule 101?
23 A.The increase for a residential customer using an
24 average of 63 therms of gas per month would be $2.77 per
25 month, or 4.9%.A bill for 63 therms per month would
26 increase from the present level of $56.03 to a proposed
Ehrbar, Di 30
Avista Corporation
1 level of $58.80, including all present rate adjustments.
2 Q.Could you please explain the proposed changes in
3 the rates for Large General Service Schedules 111?
4 A.Yes. The present rates for Schedules 101 and 111
5 provide guidance for customer placement:customers who
6 generally use less than 200 therms/month should be placed
7 on Schedule 101, customers who consistently use over 200
8 therms per month should be placed on Schedule 111. Not
9 only do the rates provide guidance for customer schedule
10 placement, they provide a reasonable classification of
11 customers for analyzing the costs of providing service.
12 The proposed increase to the minimum charge for
13' Schedule 111 (for 200 therms or less) of $2.81 per month is
14 the sum of the Schedule 101 customer charge increase of
15 2.75 cents plus the proposed increase to the Schedule 101
16 rate per therm of 0.033 cents multiplied by 192 therms.
17 This application maintains the present (breakeven)
18 relationship between the schedules, and will minimize
19 customer shifting between the schedules.The remaining
20 revenue requirement for the schedule is proposed to be
21 recovered through a uniform percentage increase of
22 approximately 1% to blocks 2 & 3, and 0.3% for block 4.
23 Block 4 was increased by a lower percentage in order to
24 maintain its current relationship with Schedule 146.
25 Q.How does the Company propose to recover the
26 increase of $6,000 to Interruptible Service Schedule 131?
Ehrbar, Di 31
Avista Corporation
1 A.The Company proposes to increase to the usage
2 charge under the schedule by 1.261 cents per therm.
3 Q.How does the Comany propose to recover the
4 increase of $7,000 to Transportation Schedule 146?
5 A.The Company is proposing to increase the per
6 therm charge under the schedule by 0.22 cents per thermo
7 Q.Is the Company proposing any other changes to its
8 natural gas service schedules?
9 A.Yes. The rates contained in Purchase Gas Cost
10 Adjustment Schedule 150 have been incorporated into the
11 present and proposed rates shown on Page 3 of Schedule 6 of
12 Exhibit No. 14.Further, a revised Schedule 150 is filed
13 as part of Schedule 5 of Exhibit No. 14, whereby the
14 present rates under the schedule have been zeroed-out and
15 included in the Company's proposed general service tariffs.

V. BAiC CHAGE
Q. Why is the Company proposing to increase the
18 electric monthly customer charge from $4.60 to $6.75 per
19 month?
20 A.A significant portion of the Company's costs are
21 fixed and do not vary with customer usage.These costs
22 include distribution plant and operating costs to provide
23 reliable service to customers.Upon evaluation of the
24 total customer allocated costs, as shown in Ms. Knox's
25 Exhibi t No. 13, Schedule 3, Page 4, line 25, those costs
Ehrbar, Di 32
Avista Corporation
1 are $14.39 per customer per month.Factoring in
2 distribution demand cost per customer per month of $18.43,
3 as shown in Exhibit No. 13, Schedule 3, Page 4, lin~ 27,
4 the total customer and distributed demand monthly cost is
5 $32.82.These are essentially fixed costs that are
6 allocated based on the number of customers served.Given
7 the large disparity between the level of customer and
8 demand costs and the present level of the basic charge, the
9 Company believes that it is appropriate to recover a more
10 reasonable level of these fixed customer costs through the
11 basic charge.
12 Q. In the Company's last two general rate filings,
13 the Company has proposed relatively small increases in the
14 residential electric basic charge (60 cents and 40 cents,
15 respectively) .Why is the Company now proposing an
16 increase of $2.15 per month in this filing?
17 A.One of the arguments against higher residential
18 basic charges in the past was one of customer
19 understandability and acceptance.Wi th regard to fixed
20 charges, many' other utility assessments (phone, television,
21 internet) are generally a flat monthly fee.Typically,
22 there is little correlation between the level of use and
23 the monthly amount paid for service related to these other
24 utili ties/ services. Consumers understand that most of the
25 costs associated with these other utilities/services are
Ehrbar, Di 33
Avista Corporation
1 fixed, and have become accustomed to paying a relatively
2 constant monthly fee for service or system access. Absent
3 compelling arguments to the contrary, as costs to serve
4 customers continue to increase,we believe it is
5 increasingly important that our charges to customers more
6 accurately reflect the actual costs to serve customers.
7 Publicly-owned electric utili ties have been charging
8 higher monthly customer charges for years in order to more
9 accurately reflect (and recover) the fixed costs of
10 providing service. For example, Avista's nearest neighbors
11 in Eastern Washington and North Idaho, Inland Power and
12 Light and Kootenai Electric Cooperative, have a basic
13 charge of $16.80 and $16.50 respectively.
14 Q.Turning now to natural gas, why is the Comany
15 proposing to increase that monthly customer charge from
16 $4.00 to $6.75 per month?
17 A.Upon evaluation of the total customer allocated
18 costs, as shown in Ms. Knox's Exhibit No. 13, Schedule 6,
19 Page 4, line 24, those costs are $14.68 per customer per
20 month. The fixed costs that only include the cost of the
21 meter and service, and the costs associated with billing
22 and providing customer service are $10.45 per customer per
23 month, as shown in Exhibit No. 13, Schedule 6, Page 4, line
24 22.
Ehrbar, Di 34
Avista Corporation
I Q.What is the consequence to a custor of a Basic
2 Charge that is priced below the cost of providing customr
3 services to that customer?
4 A.Because rate design is a "zero sum game", if
5 customer charges are set below the cost of providing
6 customer service, then other charges are, by definition,
7 set above their cost of service.For residential gas and
8 electric customers, the only other charge is the volumetric
9 charge.When volumetric rates are increased above their
10 cost of service to include customer costs that are not in
11 the Basic Charge, several consequences ensue:
12
13
14
15
. It results in almost all customers paying more per-
customer related costs in the winter, even though
their customer costs are not higher in the winter,
and vice versa in the summer;
16
17
18
. It results in customers paying more. customer costs
when it is cold, even though customer costs do not
vary with temperature.
19
20
21
. It results in the amount of customer costs a
customer pays being unpredictable, even though
customer costs are actually very predictable.
22
23
24
25
. A portion of fixed costs of providing service to
low usage customers is actually recovered from
other higher usage customers served under the same
schedule.
Ehrbar, Di 35
Avista Corporation
1 In summary,setting the basic charge at a rate
2 substantially less than an amount that covers annual
3 customer costs results in rates that are not equitable and
4 are unnecessarily variable.
5 Q. But won't increasing the Basic Charge send the
6 wrong price signal through the energy rates?
7 A. Conservation of electricity and natural gas is
8 important for customers and for the Company, and one might
9 argue that a lower basic charge results in higher commodity
10 prices and a stronger price signal related to volume usage.
11 However, sending a price signal to customers through a
12 residential rate design that contains a two tier increasing
13 block rate for electric (natural gas has just one
14 volumetric rate) was developed for just such a reason. The
15 more electricity that is used, the higher the rate, and
16 therefore the higher the overall customer bill. The
17 important distinction in this filing is that the Company is
18 not requesting to decrease the energy rates, nor is it
19 proposing to eliminate the inversion of the rates. As
20 such, the volumetric pricing components will still send a
21 very clear price signal to conserve.This is important,
22 because, the Commission, in Order 29505 (IPC-E-03-13), at
23 Page 53, stated that the service charge should provide:
24 a reasonable balance between recovering specific25 customer service costs in a fixed fee while preserving26 the ability to provide price signals for conservation
27 purposes. (emphasis added)
Ehrbar, Di 36
Avista Corporation
1 We should not use an inequitable basic charge to send price
2 signals.
3 Q.Do you have any additional comnts related to
4 ''price signals"?
5 A.Yes. Sending a proper price signal is important
6 as I noted above, and I believe that the proper price
7 signal is being maintained. One measure of this it to look
8 to the Company's IRP's to see what the incremental cost of
9 electricity and natural gas is on a forward looking basis,
10 as compared to retail rates. For electricity, the proposed
11 tail-block billing rate of $0.09140 (usage over 600 kWh's)
12 is well above the Company's levelized 20 year forecast of
13 $0.07956 per kWh, as I explained earlier. For natural gas,
14 the Company included several forecasts in its 2009
15 Integrated Resource Plan which, for the most part, all show
16 forecasted natural gas prices at Henry Hub over the next
17 ten years being lower than Avista's retail rates.
18 Q. Have you prepared an analysis to show what imact.
19 the proposed rate design changes would have on customrs?
20 A. Yes.The Company completed an analysis showing
21 the impact on low, average, and high use electric and
22 natural gas customers. The comparison shows the difference
23 in a customer's bill based on the Basic Charge being
24 increased on a uniform percentage basis, versus the

21 As you can see, the impact of the Avista proposed change to
22 the basic charge varies based on monthly consumption. For
23 an electric customer who uses less than the average 964
24 kWh's and/or 63 therms per month, the impact will be
25 slightly higher than those customers who use more than the
26 average. We believe the improvement in matching customer
Ehrbar, Di 38
Avista Corporation
I payment of fixed costs with the fixed costs to serve
2 customers, together with removing part of the inequity
3 among customers on the amount of fixed costs paid, warrants
4 this relatively small bill impact.
5 Table 11 below shows a comparison of monthly bills
6 for an electric customer with average usage for a 12-month
7 period. It shows the difference in the monthly bills with
8 a uniform percentage increase to the basic charge and
9 volumetric rates, versus the Company's proposal. The table
10 illustrates the reduction in payment of fixed costs in the
11 winter months, and increased payment in the summer, with
12 the net result being improved alignment of payment of fixed
13 costs by customers with the fixed costs to serve customers,
14 with no net annual difference6 in overall payment.
6 Annual electric biling difference of $0.02 is a result of rounding.

Table 12 below provides a similar comparison for a 12-month
14 period for a natural gas customer with average usage. The
15 net resuit is similar to the electric results above,
16 namely a better alignment of payment of fixed costs by
17 customers with the fixed costs to serve customers.
7 Annual natural gas biling difference of $0.03 is a result of rounding.

Q.Would you characterize the Comany's proposal as
16
15 fair?
A.High use customers clearly subsidize lowYes.
17 use customers as it relates to covering the fixed costs of
18 service. One clear example to demonstrate this is to think
19 of customers who have a second home or vacation home in the
20 Company's service territory.The fixed costs to serve
21 these customers are not necessarily different than a
22 "traditional" customer who lives in their home year-round.
23 However, if a customer's electric usage only occurs in a
24 few months of the year, they are clearly being subsidized
Ehrbar, Di 41
Avista Corporation
1 by traditional customers who have higher usage (and higher
2 fixed cost charges recovered through the volumetric rate).
3 Q.Please discuss your view of the imacts of this
4 request on your limted income customrs.
5 A.There are two different implications of the
6 Company's proposal.The first implication is for limited
7 income electric customers, many of whom would benefit from
8 the Company's proposal.Tradi tional thinking might lead
9 one to believe that a low income electric customer would
10 tend to be a low user of electricity. Although the Company
11 has not conducted a demographic survey of its customers in
12 recent years, the limited data that we do have would
13 suggest that just the opposite is true.
14 A majority of our customers have natural gas for space
15 and water heating, and therefore may have low average
16 electric usage during the winter. However, many low income
17 customers, I believe, tend to still use electricity for
18 space and water heating. These customers, in my view, tend
19 to live in apartments (which in Avista's service territory
20 predominantly have electric space and water heat), live in
21 areas where natural gas is not available, or live in areas
22 with natural gas, but cannot afford to convert. These low
23 income customers, with electric space and water heat, will
24 generally have electric usage in the tail-block (above 600
25 kWh's) during the winter months.Having a lower basic
Ehrbar, Di 42
Avista Corporation
1 charge and higher tail-block rate penalizes these
2 customers, as these customers are more susceptible to use
3 in the tail-block.A higher basic charge, on the other
4 hand, would result in lower volumetric rates (than they
5 otherwise would be the case), providing some relief to
6 these high use customers during the winter months.
7 Q. What are the imlications for limted income
8 natural gas customrs?
9 A. Limited income natural gas customers, on average,
10 would tend to pay slightly higher natural gas bills than
11 they would under the equal percentage methodology used by
12 the Company, as shown in the examples earlier in my
13 testimony.Data gathered as part of the review of the
14 Company's Washington natural gas Decoupling Mechanism
15 showed that limited income natural gas customers tend to
16 use slightly less natural gas (58 therms per months) than
17 the traditional residential customer (63 therms per month) .
18 As shown in Table 13 below, while there is an impact, it is
19 relatively small both on a dollar and percentage basis
20 (less than one-half of one percent) .
