PUD commissioners approve Class 17
EPHRATA — Grant County PUD commissioners have approved a new “evolving industries” class, to go into effect April 1, 2019. The vote at Tuesday’s regular commission meeting was 5-0. The new rates will be phased in over a period of three years. Class 17 customers that otherwise would qualify for Class 1 (residential) rates or are using less than 200 kilowatts of electricity per month will pay a basic charge of $5 per day and about 5.4 cents per kilowatt hour in 2019. Customers that use more than 200KW per month will pay $500 per month basic charge and about 2.4 cents per kilowatt hour in 2019. The first-year increase is about 15 percent.
