AvistaRequests to Adjust Electric and Natural Gas Rates in Idaho
Filing seeks to recover costs for continuing replacement of aging energy delivery
system
SPOKANE, Wash. - July 5, 2011, 1 :05 p.m. PDT: Costs for replacing aging electric infrastructure
to ensure reliability and increased natural gas operating costs are the major drivers in requests
Avista (NYSE: AVA) filed today with the Idaho Public Utilties Commission (IPUC) to increase
electric and natural gas rates for customers. The IPUC generally has up to seven months to review
the filings and issue a decision.
'We continue to make significant investments in replacing our aging infrastructure and upgrading
our generation facilities to preserve reliability for our electric customers in Idaho and Washington
and to gain effciencies," said Avista Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Scott L.
Morris. "Although we have taken measures to ensure that the costs we incur represent a cost-
effective and reliable way to continue to serve our customers, we continue to experience significant
increases in costs."
The requests would produce $9.0 million, or 3.5 percent, in additional biled revenue for electric
service and $1.9 milion, or 2.8 percent, in additional biled revenue for natural gas service. Both
requests are based on a proposed rate of return on rate base of 8.49 percent, with a common
equity ratio of 50.15 percent and a 10.9 percent return on equity.
If the requests are approved by the IPUC, a residential customer using an average 956 kilowatt
hours per month would see a $3.06 per month increase, or 3.7 percent, for a revised monthly bil of
$86.87. A natural gas customer using an average of 62 therms per month would see a $2.15
increase, or 3.5 percent, for a revised monthly bill of $62.91.
Avista serves over 122,000 electric and more than 74,000 natural gas customers in Idaho.
Electric
In 2011, Avista is investing approximately $250
millon in its infrastructure to ensure reliability and
meet customer demand by systematically replacing
aging equipment, including power lines, poles,
substations, transformers and related equipment
for its transmission and distribution systems, in
addition to upgrading generation-related facilties.
Federal compliance requirements also drive
Avista's need for continued investment in its
transmission system.

Ilncludes return on investment, depreciation &
taxes, offset by the tax benefit of interest.
The cost of equipment today is orders of magnitude more expensive than the equipment being
replaced, some of which has been serving customers for 40 to 70 years. The significant difference
in the original cost of the aging infrastructure and the cost of replacement equipment is the major
driver in the need for annual rate adjustments. Based on current expectations, Avista plans to
invest approximately $1.2 bilion in its utilty system for the five-year period ending Dec. 31, 2015.
Included in infrastructure costs are upgrades to the remaining two 1950s-era turbines at Avista's
Noxon Rapids hydroelectric project in Montana to increase the amount of clean, renewable power
available to serve customers, as well as the $4.7 million upgrade of the 82-year-old spill gates at
Avista's Nine Mile hydroelectric project.
Among the transmission and distribution projects included in the request are the construction of
three steel substations to replace wood substations located in Coeur d'Alene, Deary and Keiiogg,
Idaho. The existing substations have either reached the end of their useful life or must be
upgraded to meet current design and construction standards.
To enhance service reliabilty, Avista is also requesting to recover increases in costs related to its
vegetation management program that covers almost 11,000 circuit miles of power lines. Other
additional cost increases relate to transmission-related expenses, as well as administrative and
general expenses.
The requested electric increases by customer segments are:
Residential Service - Schedule 1 -
General Service - Schedule 11 & 12 -
Large General Service - Schedule 21 & 22-
Extra Large General Service - Schedule 25 -
Clearwater Paper - Schedule 25P
Pumping Service - Schedule 31 & 32-
Street & Area Lights - Schedules 41 - 49-

Natural Gas
Drivers in the natural gas rate request are increased operating costs and upgrades to the natural
gas delivery system. The requested natural gas increases by customer segments are:
General Service - Firm - Schedule 101 - Residential & small commercial- 3.5%
Large General Service - Firm - Schedule 111 & 112 - 0.1 %
High Annual Load Factor Large (Interruptible Service-Schedule 131 & 132) - 1.0%
Transportation Service for Customer - Owned Gas - Schedule 146* - 4.7%
* Excludes natural gas costs
Customer Assistance
"We are committed to offering energy efficiency programs for all customers and to supporting
energy assistance services that help those residential customers who are most impacted by rising
prices," Morris said.
A variety of effciency programs and information is available for residential, commercial and
industrial customers seeking ways to manage their energy use. In addition, the programs also help
reduce the amount of future, more costly energy resources needed to meet customer demand. To
learn more, visit ww.evervlittebit.com.
In addition to support for energy assistance programs, Avista also offers services for customers
such as comfort level biling, payment arrangements and Customer Assistance Referral and
Evaluation Services (CARES), which provide assistance to special-needs customers through
referrals to area agencies and churches for help with housing, utilties, medical assistance and
other needs. To learn more, visit ww.avistautilties.com.
Videos on the rate case process and components of Avista's rate request, along with additional
rate request information are available at ww.avistautilties.com.
Avista's rate application is a proposal, subject to public review and a decision by the Idaho Public
Utilties Commission. A copy of the application is available for public review at the offces of both
the IPUC and Avista, as well as the IPUC's homepage at ww.puc.idaho.gov. The IPUC wil begin
a comprehensive review of Avista's application and will seek public input on the company's
request.
