We at the P.U.C. have a great responsibility. As your custodians we must be at your.._service 24
hours ,a,dey seven days a week: When you flick .a switch it's our job' to see that the lights come on.
This, of course, means that we must keep your equipment in Al condition and thoroughly up to date to
make sure we can meet the demands you may make on us:
That is the problem we face. We find each year that added amounts we pay for labor, for tran-
sportation, for equipment and supplies are a little bigger. So far by the strictest economy and careful
management we have found it possible to operate within our existing revenue despite increasing
costs. .
Now Ontario Hydro has raised the cost of the power we buy from them by 16.4 percent. There no
longer is any alternative. We must go to you, the consumer, to offset this increase in hydro cost. The
P.U.C. has absorbed the cost of power increase January 1, 1980 to April 1, 1980.
Rates, in terms of the service electricity provides you, will still be low. However, commencing
April 1, 1980: next billings will show an average increase of 13.4 percent to reflect the increase in the
cost of the poWer-we buy. New Retail Rates are effective with all bills issued on and after April 1,
1980.
