NOTICE OF INTENT TO PARTICIPATE
Comes now the Kanawha County Commission (“County Commission”), by counsel, and
the City of Charleston (“Charleston”), by counsel, and respectfully submits this Notice of Intent
t o Participate in the above referenced proceeding. In support of this Notice the County
Commission and Charleston state as follows:
1. On January 3, 2018, the Public Service Commission of West Virginia issued an Order
initiating a General investigation into the effects that the 2017 Federal Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act (“TCJA”) would have on West Virginia privately-owned utilities.
2. On or about May 30th, 2018, several utilities filed Direct Testimony in the above
referenced matter indicating that, in total, the TCJA will result in hundreds of millions in
savings for privately-owned utilities in West Virginia.
3. County Commission is a political subdivision of the state of West Virginia, charged with
the superintendence and administration of the fiscal affairs of Kanawha County. W. Vu.
Const. Art. IX, § 11; W. Vu. Code § 7-1-3. Further, County Commission is a public entity
that represents the residents of Kanawha County, especially the residents of the County’s
large unincorporated areas. Similarly, Charleston is also a public entity that represents
the residents of the City of Charleston and pursuant to WV Code 98-12-5(48), Charleston
has the power to “investigate and inquire into all matters of concern to the municipality
or i t s inhabitants.” Both the County Commission and Charleston consistently strive for
public transparency. In this matter, County Commission and Charleston seek t o further
inform the public concerning the enormous savings that privately-owned utilities will
realize from the TUA.
4. The cost of utility services -- particularly electric, gas, and water -- are a significant matter
of public concern to thousands of individuals, businesses, and commercial utility service
users in both Charleston and Kanawha County. In particular, rising utility rates are a
constant matter of concern to many residents and their families, as the costs of utility
service have risen a t a rate that significantly outpaces increases in wages, salaries, and
social security payments.
5. County Commission and Charleston both strongly believe that the proper course of action
is for the privately-owned utilities to find a fair and reasonable means to return the
enormous savings resulting from the TCJA back t o the ratepayers in the form of reduced
costs of utility service, monthly bill credits, or other rate reductions.
6. For the reasons above, County Commission and Charleston submit this Notice of Intent
to Participate and further intend to file a Response to the Direct Testimony submitted by
the privately-owned utilities.
7. The name and address of the Kanawha County Commission’s attorneys are:
Andrew T. Gunnoe, Deputy County Manager Marc J. Slotnick, County Attorney Kanawha County Commission P.O. Box 3627
’ Charleston WV 25336
8. The name and address of Charleston’s attorneys are:
Paul D. Ellis, Esquire Mandi Kay Carter, Esquire City of Charleston, West Virginia 501 Virginia Street, East Charleston, West Virginia 25301
WHEREFORE, for all the foregoing reasons, the Kanawha County Commission and the City
of Charleston respectfully request that they be permitted to participate in this proceeding as
interested parties thereto.
