All right, we're going to go ahead and get started. Let's go on the record. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Arizona Corporation Commission. My name is Julia Motter, and I'm the administrative law judge assigned to preside over this matter. I'll note for the record that I'm joined on the bench today by Chair Myers. In addition, Commissioner Marcus Peterson, Commissioner Lopez, and Commissioner Thompson are all online viewing this proceeding. Today is the first day of hearing in docket number E01933A-25-0103 involving the rate application of Tucson Electric Power Company, and this is the time set for public comment.
Buenos dias y bienvenidos a todos a la Comisión Corporativa del Estado de Arizona. My name is Julia Matters, and I am the Administrative Judge appointed to preside over these matters and this cause. I note that it is in the act that here next to me is the President Myers. Y también se encuentra presidiendo Marcus Peterson, Lopez y Thompson. Están también junto con nosotros, unidos, observándonos por medio en línea. Hoy es el primer día de esta audiencia, de esta causa judicial, aquí nombrada en la lista de causas como el número letra E-01933A-250103, que tiene que ver con la tarifa de la solicitud que presentó la compañía eléctrica de Tucson. Y esta es la hora y la fecha programada para que se hagan los comentarios del público.
For those of you here in person, if you wish to speak, please fill out a paper speaker slip in the back if you have not done so already and hand it to commission staff.
For all of you who are here attending in person and want to take the word, please fill in the paper that was given to you and give it back to the person responsible for receiving that document. If you have not done so yet, please pass it on to the employee of the commission that is back there.
There is a Spanish language interpreter present, so Spanish speakers comments will be translated into English to be included in the verbatim transcript. If you would like to have your comments translated, please make sure to pause after each statement to allow the translation to be made on the record.
Por favor sepan que el día de hoy se encuentra aquí presente una intérprete del idioma español. Entonces esas personas que hablan español y quieren hacer algún comentario y se les traducirá y luego interpretará ese comentario al inglés. Su tradición y la interpretación será de manera palabra por palabra. Si ustedes quieren que sus comentarios sean traducidos, por favor cerciórense de hacer una pausa después de cada declaración o declara oración para que le permitan a la traducción que se realice y que conste en el acta en la grabación.
Thank you to those who have taken the time to come here today or to call in today and provide your comments. Although public comments are not considered evidence, in the case they are reviewed and considered by the Commission.
Muchas gracias a todos ustedes que se han tomado su tiempo para venir aquí o para llamar y proporcionar sus comentarios. A pesar de que esos comentarios no son considerados como prueba en esta causa, sí serán revisados y considerados por la Comisión.
This is our opportunity to hear your thoughts, observations, and concerns about the rate application. However, this is not the time to pose questions to the presiding judge or any commissioners. It would be inappropriate for the judge or any commissioner to provide positions on the substance of the application as such positions should not be formed until after the evidence has been received at hearing and considered. We might ask questions of speakers here, but that is to ensure we understand what your concerns and comments are.
Esta es nuestra oportunidad de conocer, escuchar sus pensamientos, sus observaciones, sus preocupaciones sobre la solicitud que se presentó sobre la tarifa. Sin embargo, aquí no es el tiempo ni la hora de hacerles preguntas a los jueces que presiden la causa ni a los comisionados. Sería inapropiado para la ciudadana juez o para cualquier comisionado que proporcione su postura sobre la solicitud y la índole de esta, pues tales posturas solo deben de ser formadas hasta que todas las pruebas hayan sido recibidas y consideradas cuidadosamente.
