—Notice of Rate Adjustment for—
Gunnison County Electric Association, inc.
P.O. Box 180 ~ 37250 West Highway 50
Gunnison, CO 81230-0180

You are hereby notified that Gunnison County Electric Association proposes to make the following changes in its tariffs to become effective January 1, 2009. The changes proposed will result in an overall annual revenue increase of approximately $1,154,000 or an average across all rate classes of 8%.
Approximately $362,000 (2.51%) of this increase is a direct result of wholesale power cost increases from our power supplier, Tri-State Generation & Transmission Association, also effective January 1, 2009.
The remaining approximate $792,000 (5.49%) is to offset increased Association operating expenses and system improvements needed to continue to provide reliable service for the GCEA membership.
The board, key staff and employees of GCEA certainly understand the effect this increase will have on your household budget and want you to know that we will do everything we can to assist you in the months ahead.
