RE:IN THE MATTER OF THE INVESTIGATION OF ATLANTA POWER
COMPANY'S RATES AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. CASE NO. ATL-03-
On September 11 , 2000, the Commission received a petition from residents of
Atlanta, Idaho, enumerating their concerns about the electric service being provided by Atlanta
Power Company. The petition requested "a formal investigation into the reliability of electrical
service for the Atlanta townsite." At the Commission s direction, Staff processed the customer
complaints on an informal basis and worked with the Company and its customers. This resulted
in several improvements and a report detailing Staff s findings, which were brought before the
Commission during its March 10, 2003 decision meeting. On April 10, 2003, the Commission
issued a Notice of Proposed Order and Comment Deadline in this docket. The Commission set a
May 1 deadline to accept written comments from interested persons and a May 8 reply deadline
for the Company.
Lynn Stevenson, President of Atlanta Power Company, contacted Staff on Monday,
May 5. Mr. Stevenson has read the comments of the customers and wishes to file a written
response. However, he is currently out-of-state and requests that Atlanta Power s reply deadline
be extended by 10 days so that he may make a more thoughtful filing. Mr. Stevenson s written
request for an extension of the Company s reply deadline is attached.
