I would appreciate your comment -if possible- a rebuttal if you see some grounds for a rebuttal.

The BC Utilities Commission (BCUC) has not allowed any experts’ participant assistant funding, normally available. Therefore we people have no qualified defense available. BCUC decides court-like: decision is made on evidence provided from either side.

We people are not given the opportunities like power companies: contracting one of the best industry consulting company (Exponent/New York), all paid not by Fortis or Fortis shareholders, but by us, the people, the very electricity rate payers! We, as ratepayers, who pay for everything what bears the “Fortis” name (generation plants, transmission/distribution lines, substations, buildings, equipmemnts, ….screwdrivers….Fortis employees’ and CEO’s wages…..at the same time we don’t get a penny for hiring experts of or choice and for our defense.

For the second time I will ask BCUC to allow us experts / participant funding, as well as a postponement of the on Jan 21. set oral hearing until after another major 230 kV TL hearing in Vancouver which starts Feb. 6 and will last about 4-5 weeks.

Please distribute to other fellow independent experts for their information.


Thank you,

Hans.
