Provincial tax on debt pushes up '90 hydro rate Ontario Hydro should raise electricity electricity rates by 5.3 per cent for 1990 to help control its debt, maintain existing facilities and provide reliable service. This is one of 75 final recommendations filed today at the Ontario Energy Board hearing hearing by the Municipal Electric Association (M.E.A.), a group representing Ontario's municipal hydro utilities. This increase would be in addition addition to the 2.2 per cent increase resulting from the $138 million levy Ontario Hydro must pay the provincial provincial government for guaranteeing guaranteeing the utility's $25 billion debt. Evidence submitted during the five-week hearing indicates Hydro's debt reduction efforts have not been overly effective. To better manage its debt and provide for stability, the M.E.A.. recommends the utility raise its 1990 net income to $817 million, some $250 million more than Hydro rècommended. The M.E.A. proposal will not only reduce Hydro's debt by one per cent, but will apply needed funds to maintain aging transmission equipment. equipment. In its argument, the M.E.A. urges Hydro to continue pursuing its worthwhile $2 billion demand managment program over the next decade. Energy efficient technologies will help reduce rapidly rapidly growing electricity demand. Hydro's annual electricity sales growth continues to be in the 4 per cent range. The Association's report also .expresses .expresses concerns over Hydro's staff levels. Two thousand of the 25,000 Hydro employees were recently declared surplus because of an operations review b>< an external management company. However, staff levels continue to rise. The 1 Association's 310 page report also recommends that Hydro: 1) Realign its above average salaries with those of comparable companies to help control its operating costs; 2) Continue its excellent excellent performance in consistently surpassing provincial government requirements for reduction of acid gas emissions; 3) Accelerate its expansion expansion program for transmission capacity because of a high growth rate in electricity demand.
