East Iron District Energy Plan Highlights Revenue Growth and Reforms
The district reports hydro revenue rising from 3-4 million to 6-10 million annually funding operations, debt costs, and water transport for Project 184. Staff reductions cut cannons from 305 in 2007 to 215 in 2014 and the operating budget from 46 million to 42 million. The plan includes cost sharing for health and pensions, reduced FCC reliance, and a push toward energy independence through hydro and solar, with revenue enhancements from recreation, land sales, cell-tower leases, and water rights. A 10-15 year trajectory aims to cover operating costs via solar and hydro, limiting rate increases while maintaining regulatory compliance.
