The all party select committee
on a proposed 25% increase in
I Ontario Hydro rates has
,recommended that the increase
be trimmed to 22%.
' The report / recommended a
further reduction in the rate
should the province decide to trim
Hydro's proposed 1976
borrowing 'progr amme and a
$400 million cut in Hydro's share
of the Government's 2./ billion
borrowing programme would
permit a reduction in the increase
to about 20%. A .22% increase
will translate into an increased
cost to municipal utilities of about
16.5% and .a jump of 13.9% in a
typical residential dower bill if
other utility costs remain 0 constant.
Two Liberal members of the
Committee recommended that
the increase be chopped to 12%
and that Hydro's financial
position could be maintained by
the Federal and Provincial
Governments agreeing to forego
payback due on their investment
in the Pickering nuclear station
and the province not collecting
$16 million in water rentals.
