No. 28872 DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SERVICE REGULATION BEFORE THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION OF THE STATE OF MONTANA In re NorthWestern Energy's Bonneville Power Administration Residential Exchange Credit Filing Docket 2022.08.081 September 1, 2022 Notice of Filing and Opportunity to Comment The Northwest Power Act of 1980 established the Residential Exchange Program so that residential and small farm customers in the Pacific Northwest receive benefits from low-cost power provided by the Federal Columbia River Power System, as operated by the Bonneville Power Administration ("BPA"). This benefit includes an annual credit that customers of NorthWestern Energy ("NorthWestern") receive from the BPA towards their monthly bill. PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on August 22, 2022, NorthWestern asked the Montana Public Service Commission ("Commission") to decrease its BPA Residential Exchange Program Credit ("BPA Credit") to reflect the current level of benefits that it will receive from BPA for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2022. NorthWestern proposes that the rate change coincide with this date and begin on October 1, 2022. In July 2021, BPA notified NorthWestern that the BPA Credit amount would decrease from $6,133,658 to $4,150,054 for fiscal years 2022 and 2023. Subsequently, in August 2021, BPA provided a revised schedule for the credit, changing the amount NorthWestern receives for these fiscal years to $4,598,952. Due to the decrease in the credit, NorthWestern proposes to raise rates for residential, general service secondary, irrigation, and lighting customers by $0.000029 per kilowatt-hour. If approved, a typical residential customer using 750 kilowatt-hours per month would experience an increased bill of $0.02 per month or $0.24 per year. The actual amount would depend on each customer's class and usage. A copy of the filing is publicly available at the Commission's business offices, 1701 Prospect Avenue, P.O. Box 202601, Helena, Montana 59620-2601, and online at the Commission's website (http://psc.mt.gov) under Docket No. 2022.08.081. A copy of the filing may also be available at the office of the Montana Consumer Counsel ("MCC"), which represents consumer interests before the Commission, 111 North Last Chance Gulch, Suite 1B, Helena, MT 59601, (406) 444-2771. Interested parties can register on the Commission's website to be added to the Watch List for notice of filings in this docket (http://eddi.mt.gov, create OKTA account, and, under "Watch List" tab, enter Docket No. 2022.08.081). The Commission invites any interested party affected by NorthWestern's filing to submit comments and/or requests for additional process no later than September 16, 2022. Written public comments on this matter may be submitted to the Commission at the address above; through the Commission's website at http://psc.mt.gov (Select "Documents & Proceedings" tab; select "Comment on a Proceeding"; select "Continue as Guest"; complete form, select "Submit"); or by email to pschelp@mt.gov.
