Times Advocate, 1989-07-26, Page 26Page 26 ' Times -Advocate, July 26,1989 Suggest rate hikes TORONTO - Ontario Hydro should raise electricity rates by 5.3 percent for 1990 to help control its debt, maintain existing facilities and provide reliable service. This is one of 75 final recommendations filed today at the Ontario Energy Board hearing by the Municipal Electric Association (M.E.A.), a group representing Ontario's munic- ipal hydro utilities. This increase would be in addition to the 2.2 percent increase resulting from the $138 million levy Ontario Hydro must pay the provincial gov- ernment for guaranteeing the utilil- ty's $25 billion debt. Evidence submitted during the five-week hearing indicates Hydro's debt reduction efforts Have not been over effective. To better manage its debt and provide for stability, the M.E.A. recommends the utility raise its 1990 net income to $817 million, some $250 million more gran Hydro recommended. the Winner - Dwight Beierling took the trophy in the 50-75 pound class in the mini -tractor pull.

Janet Rogers 686-9000 M.E.A. proposal will not only re- duce Hydras debt by one percent, but will apply needed funds to maintain aging transmission equip- ment. In its argument, the M.E.A. urg- es Hydro to continue pursuing its worthwhile $2 billion demand man- agement program over the next dec- ade. Energy efficient technologies will help reduce rapidly growing electricity demand. Hydro's annual electricity sales growth continues to be in the four percent range. The Association's report also ex- presses concerns over Hydras staff levels. Two thousand of the 25,000 Hydro employees were recently de- clared surplus because of an opera- tions review by an external manage- ment company. However., staff levels continue to rise. The Association's 310 -page report also recommends that Hydro: * Realign its above average salar- ies with those of comparable com- panies to help control its operating costs; * Continue its excellent perfor- mance in consistently surpassing provincial government requirements for reduction of acid gas emissions; * Accelerate its expansion pro- gram for transmission capacity be- cause of a high growth rate in elec- tricity demand. The M.E.A. is the voice for On- tario's 315 municipal•electric utili- ties to government, Ontario Hydro and others in the industry. Its utili- ty members represent more than 2.3 million residential, commercial and industrial customers who consume more than two-thirds of Ontario's_ electric power.
