What are your duties as Water Allocation Bureau 23 Chief? 24 A. My duties include managing the water appropriation and 25 water right adjudication programs of IDWR and supervising IDWR's 26 four regional managers. Keen, Di I Idaho Department of Water Resources I Q. What is the purpose of your testimony? 2 A. The purpose of my testimony is to provide background on 3 IDWR's water right settlement with Avista Corporation ('Avista") 4 and to document that the settlement ensures that the public interest, as 5 it relates to Avista's water use pursuant to its water rights, will not be 6 adversely affected by the merger. 7 a. What code sections govern IDWR's participation in 8 this proceeding? 9 A. Idaho Code S 42-1701'(6) has specific application to this l0 proceeding and states: I I Any authorization or order of the Idaho public utilities 12 commission, under the provisions of section 6l-328, Idaho Code, 13 approving the sale, assignment or transfer of hydropower water 14 rights used in the generation of electric power shall be issued 15 only upon such conditions as the director of the department of 16 water resources shall require as necessary to prevent any change17 in use of water under the water rights held for hydropower 18 pu{poses that would cause injury to any water rights existing on 19 the date of the sale, assignment or transfer. Any such conditions 20 shall ensure that the public interest, as it pertains to the use of 2l water under the hydropower water rights, will not be adversely 22 affected. Conditions, if any, imposed by the director shall be 23 subject to review under section 42-l70lfu(4), Idaho Code. 24 25 Idaho Code $ 6l-328 provides, in relevant part: Keen, Di 2 Idaho Department of Water Resources 1 2 J 4 5 6 7 The commission shall include in any authorization or order the conditions required by the director of the department of water resources under section 42-1701(6), Idaho Code. The commission may attach to its authorization and order such other terms and conditions as in its judgment the public convenience and necessity may require. 8 a. Can you provide an overview of how IDWR became 9 involved in this proceeding? l0 A. In July of 2018, IDWR was notified of the Joint 11 Application for an Order Authorizing Proposed Transaction ("Joint 12 Application") filed by Avista and Hydro One Limited ("Hydro One") 13 with the Idaho Public Utilities Commission ('?UC"). The Joint 14 Application sought the PUC's approval, pursuant to Idaho Code $ 61- l5 328, of a planned merger between Avista and Hydro One. 16 Immediately, IDWR was concerned the merger could result in a 17 change in the use of water authorizedby Avista's hydropower water l8 rights, especially Avista's water rights for power generation at Post 19 Falls Dam. To ensure that the public interest, as it pertains to 20 Avista's use of water under its water rights, would not be adversely 21 affected, IDWR moved to intervene in the PUC proceeding. The 22 PUC subsequently granted IDWR's petition to intervene. 23 While IDWR's petition to intervene was pending before the 24 PUC, IDWR and Avista held settlement discussions regarding 25 Avista's water rights. IDWR and Avista reached an agreement that 26 addressed IDWR's concerns. Importantly, IDWR and Avista reached 27 an agreement regarding subordination of Avista's water rights 28 consistent with the historical operations at Post Falls Dam. IDWR Keen, Di 3 Idaho Department of Water Resources I and Avista agreed that Avista's water right claim nos. 95-4518, 95- 2 9115, and 95-9119 shall be recommended in the Coeur d'Alene- 3 Spokane River Basin Adjudication with the following subordination 4 language: 5 The use of water confirmed in this right shall be junior and 6 subordinate to permits, licenses, or decrees for all uses within 7 the State of ldaho with a priority date of, or eorlier than, July 8 25, 2018, diverted upstreamfrom all three points of diversion 9 for this right. l0 1l t2 13 t4 15 t6 t7 18 19 20 2t 22 The use of water confirmed in this right shall be junior and subordinate to permits, licenses, or decrees for all uses, except for permits, licenses, or decrees for irrigation storage or power purposes, within the State of ldaho with a priority date later than July 25, 2018, diverted upstreamfrom all three points of diversion for this right. The use ofwater confirmed in this right shall not be subordinate to permits, license, or decrees within the State of Idaho diverted downstreamfrom all three points of diversion for this right. 23 a. Will the proposed transaction adversely affect the 24 public interest as it applies to the use of water under Avista's 25 water rights? 26 A. No. The agreement ensures that the public interest, as it 27 relates to Avista's water use pursuant to its water rights, will not be 28 adversely affected by the proposed transaction between Avista and 29 Hydro One. The agreement safeguards existing and future water 30 users from changes in historical operations, protects the summer lake Keen, Di 4 Idaho Department of Water Resources 1 level of Coeur d'Alene Lake, and supports the ongoing operations of 2 Post Falls Dam consistent with prior agreements and the Idaho 3 Department of Environmental Quality 401 Certification. 4 a. Are you sponsoring any exhibits with your testimony? 5 A. Yes. I am sponsoring IDWR Exhibit No. 901, which is a 6 leffer from the Director of IDWR to the PUC and the agreement 7 between IDWR and Avista. 8 a. What is IDWR requesting of the PUC? 9 A. IDWR requests that if the PUC approves the pending l0 transaction between Avista and Hydro One, the PUC include the 11 agreement as an attachment or exhibit to any such order so that the 12 resolution of this issue is documented in the order. 13 a. Do you have anything further to add at this point? 14 A. No I do not. Keen, Di 5 Idaho Department of Water Resources ON BEHALF OF THE IDAHO DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES LAWRENCE G.

AVU-E-17-09 AVU-G-17-0s IDWR EXHIBIT 901 TO SHELLEY KEEN'S DIRECT TESTIMONY FOR THE IDAHO DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES August 10,2018 Transmitted Via Hand Delivery and by E-mail Paul Kjellander, President Kristine Raper, Commissioner Eric Anderson, Commissioner C/O Diane Hanian, Commission Secretary Idaho Public Utilities Commission 472W. Washington St. Boise, Idaho 83702 Re: Case Nos. AVU-E-17-09 and AVU-G-17-05 Dear Commissioners, I am writing to update you regarding discussions between the Idaho Department of Water Resources ("IDWR") and Avista Corporation ("Avista"). Since early 2018, IDWR and Avista have been discussing Avista's water right claims in the Coeur d'Alene-Spokane River Basin Adjudication ("CSRBA"). The main focus of our discussions has been Avista's hydropower water rights at the three dams and power plant at Post Falls ("Post Falls dam"). The State of Idaho has a history of disputes over hydropower water rights. The Swan Falls controversy of the early 1980s involving Idaho Power's hydropower water rights at Swan Falls dam led to the commencement of the Snake River Basin Adjudication ("SRBA") in 1987. Litigation in the SRBA related to ldaho Power's Swan Falls water rights did not conclude until2}l2. A main reason for engaging with Avista early in the CSRBA was to avoid extended litigation over Avista's hydropower water rights, especially over the issue of subordination to existing and future water rights. In July of 2018, IDWR was notified of the Joint Applicationfor an Order Authorizing Proposed Transaction ("Joint Application") filed with the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (*PUC") by Avista and Hydro One Limited ("Hydro One"). The Joint Application sought the PUC's approval of a planned merger between Avista and Hydro One pursuant to ldaho Code $ 6l-328. Immediately, IDWR was concerned the merger would disrupt the adjudication claim discussions and might impede or prevent resolution of the issues. Furthermore, IDWR was concemed the merger could result in a change in the use of water authorized by Avista's hydropower water rights. To ensure that the public interest, as it pertains to Avista's use of water under its hydropower water rights, would not be adversely affected, IDWR moved to intervene in the PUC proceeding. The PUC subsequently granted IDWR's petition to intervene. While IDWR's petition to intervene was pending before the PUC, IDWR and Avista continued discussing Avista's hydropower water rights at Post Falls dam. We are pleased to inform you that IDWR and Avista reached an agreement that addresses IDWR's concems. Specifically, IDWR and Avista have IDVvR Exhibit No. 901 Case Nos. AVU-E-I 7-09/AVU-G-1 7-05 S. Keen, ldaho Department of Water Resour@s Schedule 1, Page 1 of 1'l August 10,2018 Letter to Commissioners Page2 reached an agreement regarding subordination of Avista's water rights consistent with the historical operations at Post Falls dam. IDWR and Avista have agreed that Avista's water right claim nos. 95-4518, 95-91 15, and 95-91 19 shall be recommended in the CSRBA with the following subordination language: The use of water confirmed in this right shall be junior and subordinate to permits, licenses, or decrees for all uses within the State of Idaho with a priority date of, or earlier than, July 25,2078, diverted upstream from all three points ofdiversion for this right. The use of water confirmed in this right shall be junior and subordinate to permits, licenses, or decrees for all uses, except for permits, licenses, or decrees for irrigation storage or power purposes, within the State of Idaho with a priority date later than July 25,2078, diverted upstream from all three points ofdiversion for this right. The use of water confirmed in this right shall not be subordinate to permits, license, or decrees within the State of Idaho diverted downstream from all three points of diversion for this right. The agreement ensures that the public interest, as it relates to Avista's water use pursuant to its water rights, will not be adversely affected by the proposed transaction between Avista and Hydro One. The agreement safeguards existing and future water users from changes in historical operations, helps protect the summer lake level of Coeur d'Alene Lake, and supports the ongoing operations of Post Falls dam in a manner consistent with prior agreements and the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality 40 I Certification. A copy of the agreement between IDWR and Avista is attached to this letter. To ensure documentation of the agreement before the PUC, IDWR requests that if the PUC approves the pending transaction between Avista and Hydro One, the PUC include the agreement as an attachment or exhibit to any such order so that the resolution of this issue is documented in the order.
