As has been testified to by other witnesses today, there was give and take.

And I think we landed in a place obviously where everybody was a signatory.
podcast-host
So it was one of those where maybe some maybe not everybody was fully happy, but everybody was happy enough to sign.
podcast-host
Yes.

From staff's perspective, um in in light of the Palo Verde case withdrawal, um we believe it gives the company enough operating revenues to continue to reinvest in the system, to offer the increase to the bill credit on the Palo Verde side, and um with some of the other parameters of the settlement agreement kind of sets them up in a good position financially to carry
podcast-host
carry them through the period that they've agreed to hold off until filing the next Santa Cruz rate case.
podcast-host
Correct.
podcast-host
We did.
podcast-host
I I don't believe it's specifically addressed in the settlement agreement.
podcast-host
Um this isn't necessarily
podcast-host
for lack of better phrase, a hill we would die on.

We just think it's in the company's best interest to ensure uh protection for those customers should something happen on Arizona Water side.
podcast-host
So generally, when staff's evaluating water loss, we're looking at a public water system level.
podcast-host
It is a delicate balance between the amount of potential capital to address a water loss issue relative to the total amount of water being lost.
podcast-host
So for a system like CP relative to Santa Cruz, I could see why the company would be a bit hesitant to commit to investing.
podcast-host
Investing what could be significant capital.
podcast-host
And like Mr.
podcast-host
Krieger, I don't remember the exact customer count, but I do believe it's in the range of 20.
podcast-host
So to to commit to investing what could potentially be a lot of capital to address a water loss issue for a relatively small portion of the system could be problematic, which is why staff generally takes maybe a softer approach than maybe we have in the past.
podcast-host
of just doing an analysis and a cost benefit to see if it's economically feasible to address water loss to reach that ten percent target.
