Grant PUD rate policy proposals get further review
EPHRATA — Residential and agriculture customers would be the first customers to receive the benefits of lower-cost Grant County Public Utility District electricity, according to proposed revisions to PUD rate policy reviewed by commissioners last week. A final draft of the revisions is scheduled to be submitted to commissioners in November, with approval by the end of the year. Chief Customer Officer Ty Ehrman said the latest revisions reflect the direction given by commissioners after their review of previous drafts. The PUD owns and operates Wanapum and Priest Rapids dams. Power from the two dams, called the Priest Rapids Project, is cheaper because the PUD owns and operates them.
