Case No. INT-G-I6-02
MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF
STIPULATION AND
SETTLEMENT
COMES NOW, Intermountain Gas Company ("Intermountain" or "Company") and the
Idaho Public Utilities Commission Staff ("Staff'), and hereby moves the Idaho Public Utilities
Commission (ooCommission") for an Order accepting the Settlement and Stipulation filed
herewith. IDAPA 31.01.01 .56, .272, .274. This motion is based on the following:
1. On August 12,20l6,Intermountain filed an application with the Commission for
authority to increase its rates and charges for natural gas service in Idaho by $10,2 million, or
4.06yo, effective September 12,2016. Intermountain proposed that the rate increase be spread
among customer classes based on a Company sponsored cost of service study. By Order Nos.
Motion for Approval of Stipulation and Settlement - INT-G-16-02 Page I
' -l trl'r t l. ii:-ii , i l. t
33593 and 33648, the Commission suspended the proposed schedules of rates and charges for
natural gas service.
2. Petitions to intervene in this proceeding were filed by Amalgamated Sugar
Company ("Amalgamated"), Northwest Industrial Gas Users Association ("NWIGU"), Idaho
Conservation League ("ICL"), Northwest Energy Coalition ("NEC"), Community Action
Partnership Association of Idaho ("CAPAI"), Snake River Alliance, and the Federal Executive
Agencies. By various Orders, the Commission granted these interventions. See, IPUC Order
Nos. 33608,33611,33613,33614, and 33630. In addition, two public comments were received.
3. A technical hearing and a public customer hearing occurred between March 1 - 3,
2017. Although the Parties testified at the technical hearing, no one testified at the customer
hearing. The Commission then issued its final Order on April 28,2017; Order No. 33757. In
Order No. 33757 the Commission approved a revenue increase for Intermountain of $4.1 million,
or an average rate increase of l.58Yo.
4. The Company filed a Petition for Reconsideration on May 18,2017, asking for
reconsideration of four issues: (i) alleged enors contained in Staff s weather normalization
methodology, (ii) the rejection of the Company's and the adoption of Staff s weather
normalization methodology, (iii) disallowance of a portion of affiliated O&M, as recommended
by NWIGU, and (iv) the disallowance of 100% of the Company's incentive compensation, also
recommended by NWIGU. Staff subsequently filed an answer concurring that the Commission
should reconsider weather normalization issues i and ii, and taking no position on issues iii and
iv. See Commission Staff s Answer to [Intermountain's] Petition for Reconsideration. No one
else responded to the Petition or opposed the Commission reconsidering all four issues.
Motion for Approval of Stipulation and Settlement - INT-G-16-02 Page2
5. On June 15,2017, the Commission granted the Petition and agreed to the
"limited reconsideration" of "the four narrow issues raised in the Petition." Commission Order
No. 33789 at3-4.In that Order, the Commission instructed the parties "to meet and confer in an
effort to narrow the weather normalization issue, discuss settlement opportunities, and agree [to
the extent possible] on a remaining schedule." Id. Staff and the parties subsequently agreed on a
bifurcated schedule where the weather normalization issues would be negotiated through a series
of meetings/workshops, and the expense disallowance issues addressed through modified
procedure. Staff, the Company, NWIGU, and Amalgamated were the only parties that
participated in the reconsideration proceedings.
6. Weather normalization settlement conferences were noticed and held at the
Commission on June 22, Ju,ly 19, and July 24,2017. The Company and Staff participated in all
of these settlement conferences and had numerous phone calls and information/modeling/data
exchanges before, in-between and after the conferences. Representatives of Amalgamated and
NWIGU participated in some of the weather normalization settlement conferences.
7. On June 30,2017,Intermountain filed additional information, support for and
exhibits regarding affrliated charges and incentive compensation. Intermountain then engaged in
separate settlement negotiations with NWIGU regarding these two reconsideration issues.
Negotiations between Intermountain and NWIGU were conducted with the knowledge of Stafl
though Staff took no position on those issues.
8. Based on settlement discussions, the Parties whose signatures appear on the
Stipulation and Settlement ("Signing Parties"), including Staff, the Company, and NWIGU, have
agreed to resolve and settle all four of the issues the Company raised in its Petition for
Reconsideration. A copy of the signed Stipulation and Settlement evidencing that agreement is
Motion for Approval of Stipulation and Settlement - INT-G-16-02 Page 3
Attachment t hereto. Although Amalgamated participated in the meetings as noted above, it
ultimately did not sign the Stipulation and Settlement. Amalgamated has, however, advised the
Company that Amalgamated does not oppose the settlement.
9. The Signing Parties recommend that the Commission grant this Motion and
approve the Stipulation and Settlement in its entirety, without material change or condition,
pursuant to IDAPA 31.01.01.274.
10. In light of the proposed Stipulation and Settlement, the Signing Parties ask that
the Commission vacate the current case schedule. The Signing Parties respectfully submit that,
given the narrow scope of the reconsideration proceedings, the support of (or non-opposition to)
the Stipulation and Settlement by all parties that participated in the meetings, the Commission
should consider the Stipulation and Settlement based on written submissions, including the
Motion, the Settlement and Stipulation, and the pre-filed testimony and comments of the
Company and Staff in support of the Stipulation and Settlement. As noted in the Settlement and
Stipulation, the Signing Parties do not object to the Commission considering public comments
after August 17, 2017.
I 1. The Signing Parties agree that the Stipulation and Settlement is in the public
interest and that all of its terms and conditions are fair, just and reasonable, and in accordance
with law and regulatory policy.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Signing Parties respectfully request that the Commission issue
an order in Case No. INT-G-16-02:
1. Granting this Motion and accepting the Stipulation and Settlement in its entirety,
without material change or condition; and
Motion for Approval of Stipulation and Settlement - INT-G- I 6-02 Page 4

in this proceeding and that this Stipulation is in the public interest. The Parties, therefore,
recommend that the Idaho Public Utilities Commission ("Commission") approve the Stipulation
and all of its terms and conditions. See Rules 271,272 and274 (IDAPA 31.01.01 .271,272,and
274).
II BACKGROUND
2. On August 12,2016,lntelrnountain filed a generalrate case application
requesting authority to increase overall rates (including the cost of gas) by $10.2 million, or
4.06yo, with a proposed effective date of September 12,2016. Commission OrderNo. 33593,
issued September 9,2016, suspended the effective date of the proposed rates by thirty days plus
five months. On September 30, 2016 the Company amended the revenue increase amount to
$9.4 million , or a 3.7o/o increase.
3. On November 14,2016,the Commission issued Order No. 33648 providing a
Notice of Schedule, Notice of Public Workshop and Notice of Technical Hearing, with technical
hearings to be held on March I - 3, and new rates to be implemented on April 1,2017. The
Commission then extended the suspension period for the new rates through May I 1,2017 . Order
No.33648 at2.2 OnApril28, 2017,the Commission issued OrderNo.33757 granting
Intermountain a $4.12 million revenue increase, or I .58%.
4. On May 18,2017, the Company filed a Petition for Reconsideration requesting
reconsideration of four issues: (l) Correcting data errors contained in Staff s weather
normalization modeling, (II) Challenging the Commission's preference for Staff s weather
normalization models over the Company's models, (lll) Disputing the disallowance of $1.381
million in affiliated charges, as recommended by NWIGU, and (lV) Questioning the
2 Idaho Code $ 6l-622(4)
Stipulation and Settlement - Case No. INT-G-16-02 Page 2
Commission's disallowance of $704,000 in incentive compensation expenses, also recommended
by NWIGU. Commission Staff subsequently filed an Answer recommending the Commission
reconsider the weather normalization issues. Staff took no position on the remaining issues raised
in the Company's Petition.
5. On June 15,2017, the Commission issued Order No. 33789 granting the
Company's Petition for Reconsideration on all four issues. The Order also instructed the Parties
to meet and attempt to narrow the disputed facts and issues, and explore the possibility of
settlement.
6. On June 22,2017, representatives of Staft Intermountain, NWIGU and
Amalgamated met, discussed settlement, and proposed a bifurcated settlement process wherein
Staff and the Company and all interested parties would "continue to diligently work to naffow
the facts and issues and potentially explore settlement possibilities," regarding weather
normalization issues I and II, while Issues III and IV would be addressed by Modified Procedure.
The Modified Procedure schedule for Issues III and IV had (a) Intermountain filing additional
comments and evidence on June 30,2017 , (b) Other parties filing responses on luly 28, 2017 ,
and (c) Intermountain filing a reply on August 15,2017, if any.
7. From late June through early August, Staff, the Company, and other Parties have,
pursuant to Rule 272, regularly met and discussed weather normalization, the outcome of those
meetings resulting in an Active Settlement, as described in this Stipulation below.
8. On June 30,2017, the Company filed written comments and additional evidence
regarding affiliated charges and incentive compensation. In July, Intermountain and NWIGU,
pursuant to Rule 272, met and discussed an increase in the rate recovery of affiliated charges and
incentive compensation costs incurred by the Company, the outcome of those meetings resulting
in an Active Settlement between Intermountain and NWIGU, as described in this Stipulation
Stipulation and Settlement - Case No. INT-G-16-02 Page 3
below. No Party filed a response to Intermountain's July 30, 2017 supplemental evidence
regarding affiliated charges and incentive compensation.
9. As a compromise of positions in this case, and for other considerations as set forth
below, the Parties agree to the following terms:
III TERMS OF THE STIPULATION
10. Overview: The Parties agree that lntermountain shall be allowed to implement
revised tariff schedules designed to recover $2,321,190 in additional annual revenues, which
represents a $l ,219,206, (l .36%) increase to ldaho Ratepayers over amounts approved in Order
No. 33757. New rates would become effective October 1,2017. Exhibit A to this Stipulation is a
revised Attachment A to Order No. 33757 reflecting the additional annual revenues and base rate
revenues that Intermountain would be entitled to collect, if this Stipulation is approved by the
Commission.
I I . Billing Determinants: For purposes of reaching a settlement in this case, the
Parties agree that the annual weather normalized billing determinants for the Company's
residential customer class RS will be 213,576,738 therms (213,439,341 therms agreed to with the
Staff plus Residential Snowmelt of 137,397) and the Company's commercial customer class GS
will be 108,995,228 therms (108,979,218 therms agreed to with the Staff plus Commercial
Snowmelt of 16,010).
12. Consumption and Weather Related Revenue Adjustments: For purposes of
reaching a sefflement in this case, the Parties agree that the Company is entitled to an additional
$6,065 in base rate revenue requirement with a reduction in overall revenue requirement of
$2,634,338 from the amounts approved in Order No. 33757.
13. Gas Consumption Normalization: Gas consumption normalization, based on
weather, will be adjusted in future rate filings to reflect actual test year consumption, with no
Stipulation and Settlement - Case No. INT-C-16-02 Page 4
predicted or forecast test year consumption, unless prior to the filing the Staff and the Company
agree that a forecast test year consumption is acceptable.
14. Weather Data: The Parties agree that in future rate filings, heating degree days
may be weighted using either billing system customer counts, or customer counts obtained from
the Company's "weather system"; however, if weather system data is used, modeling results
shall be consistently adjusted for weather system and billing system differences for all months
and all customer classes.
15. Future Weather Modelins Methodology: For purposes of reaching settlement
in this case, no specific weather normalization methodology will be approved by the
Commission with the exception of paragraphs l3 (Gas Consumption Normalization) and l4
(Weather Data), above. Staff, the Company, and other interested parties shall meet and work
together prior to the Company's next general rate case filing to review, discuss, and seek
consensus regarding appropriate consumption modeling methodology related to weather.
16. Affiliated Charges and Incentive Compensation: For purposes of reaching a
settlement in this case, the Parties agree that the Company is entitled to recover an additional
$1,206,500 in annual expenses -which amounts to $1,213,141 in both annual revenues and base
rate revenues - related to affiliated charges and incentive compensation. This sefflement amount
was negotiated between the Company and NWIGU and represents a 50/50 split of the dollar
amounts related to these two issues, after adjusting for $328,000 of affiliated charges that were
'odouble counted" in Order No. 33757.3 This $328,000 adjustment is included in the $1.2 million
increase in expense recovery/annual and base revenues referenced above.
3 See Paragraph No. 5 in Intermountain's Report on Afiliated Charges, related to "Calculation Errors" of NWIGU
and failure to use September 30 adjusted affiliate charge amounts.
Stipulation and Settlement - Case No. INT-G-16-02 Page 5
17. Rate Spread: The Parties agree that the additional$.1,219,206 (1.36%) in annual
base rate revenues related to the settlements reached regarding the issues described in above
paragraphs l2 (Consumption and Weather) and l6 (Affiliated Charges and Incentive
Compensation) will be allocated among the customer classes in accordance with the rate spread
as required by Order No. 33757. Specifically, the revenue increase resulting from this Stipulation
will be in accordance with Attachment B of the Second Errata to Order No. 33757 and a"50%o
move towards cost-of-service [ ] for all affected customer classes."4 Attached as Exhibit B to this
Stipulation is a revised Attachment B to Order No. 33757 reflecting the rate spread of the
additional annual base rate revenues that Intermountain would be entitled to collect, if this
Stipulation is approved by the Commission.
IV GENERAL PROVISIONS
