(THE IID'S ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT IS BEING ADJUSTED)...THE IMPERIAL IRRIGATION DISTRICT BOARD OF DIRECTORS WERE TOLD TUESDAY SOMETHING WAS BEING DONE ABOUT THE E.C.A.. THE ENRGY COST ADJUSTMENT APPEARS ON LOCAL ENERGY BILLS, AND REFLECTS THE COST OF PRODUCING THE ENERGY USED. CURRENTLY THE E.C.A. IS DERIVED FROM A COMPLICATED CALCULATION THAT FEW UNDERSTAND. ALMOST EVERYBODY NOTICES, HOWEVER, THE FLUCTUATION IN THEIR BILLS, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE E.C.A. INCREASES. IID ENERGY DEPARTMENT MANAGER JOHN FEDROWICZ TOLD THE BOARD THIS WEEK A FORMULA WAS BEING WORKED OUT TO SIMPLIFY THE E.C.A.. HE SAID HE WAS NOT SURE THE NEW FORMULA WOULD REDUCE ENERGY BILLS OR NOT, BUT IT WILL STABILIZE THE AMOUNT CUSTOMERS PAY, AND IT WILL BE EASIER TO UNDERSTAND. HE SAID THE NEW FORMULA SHOULD BE READY FOR BOARD REVIEW IN OCTOBER.
