Interim wholesale rates to municipal commissions will rise by an average of eight per cent, while the average increase to direct industrial customers will be 12 per cent. Both of these in- creases are effective January 1, 1973. Te retail customers (cot- tages, farms and rural resi- dences), the average increase is 10 per cent and is effective on b1lls payable February 5, 1973. There has been no increase in rates to Ontario Hydro direct in- dustrial and rural customers in the last two years, whereas there was an increase of eight per cent in the interim rates to municipal electric utilities effective last' July 1. - . Mr., Cathercole . cited inflation and resultant escalation in tests of equipment; and suppIA, - teres rates, wages and salaries, -fuels and anti -pollution measures as the causes for the raise.- ' The Province's 350 municipal utilities, 91 large industrial customers served directly by On- tario Hydro and some 600,000 rural consumers are affected. Mr. Gathercole said the rate -in- creases will not be sufficient alone to meet rising costs `and that withdrawals will have to be made from the reserve fund. Generally speaking, this fund has been established to absorb the cost of such factors as variation in stream flows, major physical damage to plant, delays in bring- ing generating plants into serv- ice, and exchange risk on debts payable in foreign currency. A year ago, Hydro advised its customers that in spite of, inten- ,sive cost pressures, there would be a temporary deferment of a rate increase because of the state of the economy. With the improvement in economic condi- tions, an interim increase of eight per cent -to municipal commis - son was made on July 1. But no increase was made at that time to the large industrial customers, whose contracts run from Janu- ary 1 to December 31st, or to rural customers.. Mr. Gathercole said, "in re- ccent years, after a long period of rate stability or decline, spiralling inflation has begun to effect electric costs and rates. In- \irt �� tone �• 1 100..
