APPLICATION
COMES NOW Bar Circle "S" Water Company ("Bar Circle S", "Applicant" or
"Company") and pursuat to Section 61-526 Idaho Code, petitions the Idao Public
Utilities Commssion for an amendment to its Certificate of Convenience and Necessity
No. 296.
Bar Circle "S" Water Company provides water service to the Bar Circle "S"
Rach subdivision located on the Rathdr Prairie in Kootenai County Idaho
approximately 7 miles nort of the city of Coeur d' Alene. The Company curently serves
approximately 156 residential and 1 commercial customers. Residential customers are
typically located on 5 acre lots.
An application and plat map for a new subdivision, Double T Estates, has been
filed with Kootenai County for approval. The final plat has not yet been approved but
approval is expected soon and constrction should begin in the next few months. The
new subdivision is located on approximately 237 acres in a porton of the West one- half
of Section 14, Township fift-two nort, Rage four west of the Boise meridian (W 'i,
Sec. 14, T.52N R4W, BM) in Kootenai County Idaho. This subdivision is located
approximately 1,300 lineal feet from the existing Bar Circle "S" service area at the Ohio
1
Match Road and Rasey Road intersection. A vicinty map (Atthment "A") is
enclosed that shows the location of the existing service area and the proposed new
subdivision.
Attchment "B", enclosed, is a copy of the proposed plat map of the new
subdivision. A final approved plat map complete with detal of the location of all water
system instalations will be provided to the Commission when completed.
Bar Circle "S" recently had a hydraulic engineerig study performed of its water
system by Toothman-Orton Engineering. The new subdivision will contai forty-seven
(47) five acre residential home sites. The hydraulic modeling study performed by the
consulting engineers determined that there is adequate capacity on the Company's
existing system to serve this new subdivision without the need for constrction of
additional source of supply or reservoir facilties. A copy of the engineering report is
enclosed for review by the Idaho Public Utilties Commission Staff.
Constrction costs of the water distrbution system including mains, valves, fire
hydrants, customer service line taps, meter boxes, meter bases and the line extension
required to interconnect to the existing water system will be paid by the subdivision
developer and contrbuted to Bar Circle "S" Water Company. The only cost to be borne
by Applicant will be the cost of meters at the time a propert is developed and service is
requested. Addition of this service area to the existing system will have no adverse effect
on the Company's existing customers.
Applicant is not aware of any other water company in the vicinty of the new
subdivision that would be willng and able to provide service to the area being developed.
Applicant requests the Commssion process this Application under the
Commission's Rules of Modified Procedure.
2
Applicant's curent customers are being notified of this Application by direct mail
coincident with the filing with the Commission. A copy of the notice is enclosed as
Attchment "C".
