PURCHASED POWER ADJUSTMENT RATE)
CASE NO. CAP-W-IO-oi
APPLICATION
COMES NOW Capitol Water Corpration ("Capitol, "Applicant" or
"Company"), holder of Certficate of Convenience and Necessity Number 239 and fies
ths Application to chage its Schedule No.3 Puchad Power Cost Adjusent rate to
recover the Company's cost of electrcity related to Idaho Power Company's electrc rate
schedules tht have been approved by the Idao Public Utilties Commission ("IPUC" or
Commssion").
Subsequent to Applicant's last cas (CAP-W-09-01) Idaho Power Company ha
been granted a number of chages in its rates and chages tht afect Applicants cost of
electrc power. Applicant requests that the Commission tae offcial notice of its Order
Nos. 30814 (Case No. IPC-E-09-05), 31081 (Case No. IPC-E-1O-07), 31091 (Case No.
IPC-E-1O-08), 31093 (Case No. IPC-E-lO-12), and 31097 (Cae No IPC-E-I0-06), all of
which increased rates and charges paid by Applicant to Idao Power Co. for electrc
service.
Applicat's curnt base rates were established by Order No. 30762 in Case No.
CAP-W-08-02. In tht order the Commission adopted a the (3) year average of
1,454,401 KWh of electrcity consumption at an averae cost of5.i9~ to establish rates
for Applicant. Together these produce a tota cost of electrc power for Applicant of
$75,483.41. Recalculating Applicants average cost pe KWh at Idaho Power Company's
APPLICATION
CAP-W-I0-01
1
curnt rates produces an average cost of 5.52~ per KWh. This averge cost per KWh
when applied to the Commssion approved average us produces an anua cost for
electc power of $80,295. Ths is an increase in cost of$4,811 or 6%.
Applicant expets its costs to review the Idaho Power Compay cases, determe
their effect on Applicant and prepae and fie ths application to be $1,000. Applicat
proposes to include these costs together with the electrc power increasd costs for
recovery by replacing the Company's curently approved Schedule No.3 Purchaed
Power Cost Adjustment of 1.45% with a new Puchased Power Cost Adjustment of
0.81 %. The reduction is due to the change in Applicants incrementa cost approved in
Case No. CAP-W-09-01 that utilized Idaho Power Company's PCA rate of 1.4717~ pe
KWh. Tht rate was recently reuced to 0.31 1 4~ per KWh. The reduction in the Idao
Power PCA rate together with the increases in other Idao Power Co. rate schedules
produce an incrementa cost over Commission approved electrc costs in Capitol Water
Company's base rates that are less than authorized in Case CAP-W-09-0L.

support of ths Application. Also enclosed As Exhbit NO.2 is a copy of the Company's
