Option A, Increase 50% now, 50% January 2002: The District would split
the increase of 2.452 cents per KWhr into two equal increases, an
increase of 1.226 cents per KWHr in August of 2001 and another 1.226

bill for a customer using 650 kWh would increase from about $48.27 to
$56.24 in August and $64.21 in January 2002. The proposed rates would

to revenue shortages that might occur during the first two quarters of
2002 when wholesale prices are historically lower than the summer months.
