PUC protest Hydro hike Recognizing that .-changes in the methods of costing and pricing of electricity could 'result in homeowners and other low electrical energy • use customers being assessed a greater portion of the costs, the Clinton 'Public Utilities Commission will be an in- tervenor at the Ontario Energy Board hearings into the Costing and Pricing of Electricity, through the Ontario Municipal Electric Association (O.M.E.A.) The hearing, to be held in Toronto and which will begin on Monday, May 16, 1977, is expected to last several months. The announcement was made Tuesday by Mr. John Wise, Chairman of the Clinton Public Utilities Commission. "The members of the Commission believe that the group intervention is the most logical and effective method of obtaining the best representation possible. It does not add to already high cost by the duplication of effort, nor does it prolong the time span of the hearing. •Thesee' represent additional cc,atS that would ultimately be M 91 reflected through the electric bills of all our customers," explained Mr. Wise. The O.M,E.A. has developed an intervention team comprised of legal counsel knowledgeable in energy matters, energy consultants, commissioners and municipal- management' people who have been preparing for the hearing for many months, studying the ten volume report on the Costing and Pricing study that will form the basis of the hearing. The objective of the intervention team is to obtain the Costing and Pricing system best suited to the needs of the municipal utilities and their residential, commercial and industrial customers. The O.M.E.A. is the spokesman for more than 340 municipal utilities in Ontario, the commissioners and councillors' of which represent more than two million residential, com- mercial and industrial customers served by the municipal distribution systems. They consume about two-thirds of the electric power in Ontario.
