The increases shown above are based on averages
of all customers in the indicated class. Each class may
receive an increase greater or less than stated here.
Individual customers may r~ceive increases that are
greater or less than average.
In its Application, Mountaineer also seeks
approval of the Expansion Project to extend
and enhance service in Morgan, Berkeley, and
Jefferson Counties as an IREP-eligible project that
Mountaineer is authorized to include in its five-year
IREP plans. Mountaineer asserts that the Expansion
Project will enhance the reliability of the natural
gas supply serving its Martinsburg service area,
provide or expand service to numerous commercial
customers and housing developments, and createnew
opportunities to expand service into undereerved and
unserved areas. The Expansion Project is expected
to cost $45 million and consists of approximately
24 miles of distribution trunk line beginning at a
new interconnect in Morgan County and extending
to the northern end of Mountaineer's Martinsburg
distribution system (Segment i); approximately 24.5
miles of distribution trunk line from the southeast
side of Martinsburg to Charles Town, then back west
to Mountaineer's existing system in Middleway, and
then northeast to Kearneysville (Segment 2); and
approximately 4.4 miles of distribution trunk line
from the east side of Martinsburg to Shepherdstown
(Segment 3). Construction of Segment 1 is expected
to take place in 2018 and will cost approximately
$30 million, while construction of Segments 2 and
3 is expected to take place in 2019, but portions of "
Segments 2 and 3 could be accelerated to 2018.
Although Mountaineer seeks approval of all
segments of the Expansion Project as IREP-eligible
facilities that it is authorized to include in its five-
year IREP plans, it currently only seeks authorization
to include the costs of Segment 1 for recovery in
the calculation of its 2018 IREP Rate Component.
If the Commission provides such authorization,
Mountaineer will begin recovering costs associated
with Segment 1 through an additional IREP rate
increment to be effective on January 1, 2018• This
increment will be added to the 2016 and 2017
IREP Rate Components and also will include the
incremental increase associated with the general
2018 IREP infrastructure investment proposed for
that year. Mountaineer estimates that if the level of
Segment 1 costs in 2018 are authorized for recovery
in the calculation of the 2018 IREP Rate Component,
the incremental rate increase specific to Segment 1
would increase a typical residential customer bill
averaging 6 Mcf per month by $0.54 per month
beginning on January 1, 2018, or $6.48 annually
for 2018. (These estimates do not account, however,
for base revenues generated from the additional
customers added as a result of the Project, which
could reduce the estimated rate impact.)
Mountaineer also estimates that if the costa
of Segment 1 are authorized for recovery in 2019,
the year when the full impact of the Segment 1
investment is incorporated into the IREP, the average
monthly bill for its various classes of customers would
increase on January I, 2019, as follows:
