BEFORE THE IDAHO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION

IN THE MATTER OF THEAPPLICATION OF PACIFICORPDBA ROCKY MOUNTAIN POWER'FOR APPROVAL TO REVISEELECTRIC SERVICE SCHEDULENOS. 10, 400, AND 401

CASE NO. PAC-E-

, Direct Testimony of Jeffrey K. Larsen

ACIFICORP

June 2006

Please state your name, business address and position with PacifiCorp, dba,

Rocky Mountain Power ("the Company.

My name is Jeffrey K. Larsen, and my business address is 201 South Main Street

Suite 2300, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111. I am currently employed as Managing

Director of Regulatory Affairs.

Qualifications

Please summarize your education and business experience.

I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Utah State University

in 1994 and a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from Brigham Young

University in 1985. I have also participated in the Company s Business

Leadership Program through the Wharton School and an Advanced Education

Program through the J.L. Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern

University. In addition to formal education, I have also attended various

educational, professional and electric industry-related seminars during my career

at the Company.

I joined the Company in 1985 , and I have held various accounting,

compliance and regulatory-related positions prior to my current position. I have

testified on various matters in the states of Utah, Wyoming, California

Washington, and Oregon.

Purpose

What is the purpose of your testimony?

The purpose of my testimony is to provide an overview of the Company

application to revise Electric Service Schedule Nos. 10, 400, and 401 , and support

Larsen, Di - 1

PacifiCorp

the Stipulation entered into between the Company and the Idaho Irrigation

Pumpers Association, Inc. ("lIP A" or "Stipulation Party ) as being reasonable and

in the public interest. I first provide background to this application, including its

relation to the general rate case originally anticipated to be filed by the Company

before April 29, 2006. I describe the Company s efforts to reach agreements with

multiple parties prior to filing the application. I explain the various elements of

the Stipulation as well as provide evidence that supports the need for a price

change in the Idaho jurisdiction and provides the basis for the agreements reached

with the various parties. Finally, I recommend that the Commission approve this

application and Stipulation as reasonable and in the public interest.

Overview

Please describe PacifiCorp s application to revise Electric Service Schedule

Nos. 10, 400, and 401.

This filing requests adjustments to Electric Service Schedule Nos. 10, 400 , and

401 according to the terms of settlement agreements reached between the

Company and lIP A, Monsanto Company ("Monsanto ), and Nu- West Industries

Nu- West"), respectively. If approved by the Commission, PacifiCorp would be

allowed to implement revisions to Schedule Nos. 10, 400, and 401 designed to

recover a total of $8.25 million in additional annual revenue from base rates

representing an aggregate rate increase of5. 1 percent. Revised Schedule Nos. 10

and 400 would become effective as of January 1 , 2007 , and revised Schedule No.

401 would become effective as of September 1 2006.

Larsen, Di - 2PacifiCorp

Has the Company provided workpapers showing how the results were

calculated and the impact on existing tariffs?

Yes. Exhibit 1 shows the total company and Idaho allocated revenue requirement

as I will describe later. Exhibit 2 is a summary of the cost of service study,

including an itemization by functional category. Exhibit 3 includes a calculation

of the revenue increase for Schedule No. 10. Exhibit 4 includes revised tariff

schedules showing the proposed changes to Schedule Nos. 10, 400, and 401.

Are any rates set forth in tariff schedules other than those referenced above

at issue in this application?

No.

Why has the Company proposed no changes to other tariff schedules?

Based on the Company s most recently available cost of service results at the

proposed target return on rate base shown in Exhibit 2, there are no other major

customer classes that require rate adjustments on the order of magnitude as was

indicated for Schedule Nos. 10 400 and 401. In fact, all other major customer

classes are within 90 percent and 110 percent of the proposed cost of service. As

such, while smaller adjustments for other customer classes may be suggested by

the results, the Company believes it is appropriate to increase prices for only

Schedule Nos. 10 , 400, and 401 at this time. This will limit price changes and

result in price stability for the majority of our Idaho customers, while reducing

cost of service disparities among customer classes.


Does this application address the details of the proposed changes to Schedule

Nos. 400 and 401?

No. Electric Service Schedule Nos. 400 and 401 are based on special contracts

between the Company and its customers Monsanto and Nu-West, respectively.

Details supporting the proposed changes to these tariff schedules are provided in

separate applications filed simultaneously with this application and are subject to

Commission approval. However, the Company has provided revised Schedule

Nos. 400 and 401 as exhibits in this application for Commission approval and to

illustrate the proposed changes to these schedules which, when evaluated

alongside the proposed revision to Schedule 10, show the overall impact ofthe

rate changes on the Company s financial results.

Background

The terms of the Stipulation approved in Case No. P AC- 05-0l indicated

that the Company anticipated filing a general rate case by April 29, 2006.

Why did the Company not proceed with a general rate filing by that date?

Paragraph 8 ofthe approved Stipulation referenced above states

, "

The cost of

service issue (related to the Monsanto contract) is not resolved in this Stipulation

and is proposed to be addressed in a general rate case to be filed by the Company

no later than April 29, 2006 in order that the effective date of rates in that

proceeding will coincide with the expiration of the current Monsanto contract in

December 2006." During the course of preparing the anticipated general rate

filing, the Company was also engaged in confidential contract negotiations with

Monsanto regarding a new electric service agreement. As those discussions


progressed it became apparent that mutual agreement would be possible

resolving many of the cost of service issues raised in Case No. P AC- E-05-0 1. As

discussions with Monsanto continued past April 29, 2006, the Company notified

the Commission and parties to the previous Stipulation that it intended to delay a

general rate case filing.

Has the Company reached agreement with Monsanto regarding a new

special contract?

Yes. PacifiCorp and Monsanto have signed a new electric service agreement that

was filed in a separate application for Commission approval. The new service

contract will be effective January 1 , 2007.

Why did the Company seek agreements with lIP A and Nu-West?

The cost of service study prepared pursuant to the anticipated general rate case

filing and for the Monsanto contract negotiations revealed significant revenue

shortfalls in Idaho , not only from Monsanto but also from the irrigation customer

class and the Nu-West special contract. PacifiCorp initiated discussions with both

lIP A and Nu- West and has signed stipulations with both to reduce the respective

revenue shortfalls.

Has the special contract with Nu-West been renegotiated?

No. Electric Service Schedule No. 401 is based on the terms ofthe electric

service agreement between the Company and Nu- West, approved by the

Commission in Order No. 29940, effective through December 31 , 2010.

Schedule No. 401 allows for adjustments to the tariff rate which may be approved

by the Commission, and the Company has filed a separate application that would


support a tariff rate increase to Schedule 401 , effective as of September 1 2006..

What is the basis for the settlement agreements and proposed increases?

Each agreed-upon increase is based on the Company s normalized results of

operations and cost of service studies using a historical test year ending

September 30, 2005.

These normalized results of operations indicate the Company is currently

earning a return on equity of 5.75 percent, which is significantly below the

Company s last authorized rate of return, and well below the rate of return

generally allowed for public utilities in Idaho currently. Based on the Company

target rate of return, an increase of$19.35 million would be warranted at the

75 percent earnings level. Without the requested increase in revenues, it will be

increasingly difficult for PacifiCorp to access capital markets to obtain the funds

necessary to maintain its utility infrastructure and continue to provide safe,

reliable power to its Idaho customers.

Were the results of operations prepared consistently with past Commission

practice and orders?

Yes. The results were prepared using a historical test year with known and

measurable adjustments, including adjustments for both costs and matching

benefits to customers. PacifiCorp s total company results were allocated to the

Idaho jurisdiction according to the Revised Protocol allocation method approved

by the Commission in Order No. 29708 and previously implemented in Case No.

PAC- 05-01. The calculated revenue shortfall was reduced to reflect the rate

mitigation cap, limiting rate increases to 101.67 percent of the revenue


requirement calculated under the Rolled-In allocation method. All applicable

commitments made by the Company during the acquisition ofPacifiCorp

MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company, Case No. P AC- 05-08, were also

reflected in the calculation of the results.

Has the Company communicated with any other customer groups?

Yes. The Company contacted all parties to the Stipulation reached in Case No.

PAC- 05-01 and none have objected to the Company s decision to not file a

general rate case in 2006.

In particular, PacifiCorp has worked with the Community Action

Partnership Association of Idaho ("CAP AI") because of a related commitment in

Case No. P AC- 05-08, the MidAmerican acquisition ofPacifiCorp.

Commitment No. I 13(b) states

, "

In PacifiCorp s next Idaho general rate case,

PacifiCorp will include in its direct testimony an analysis ofthe costs and benefits

of changing its current practice of matching 50 percent of federal contributions to

matching at a higher percentage amount." Because CAPAI was a party to the

Stipulation approved in Case No. PAC- 05-01, it was expecting a general rate

case to be filed by April 29 , 2006 with testimony that would satisfy Commitment

No. I 13(b). PacifiCorp reached agreement with CAP AI that the issue

contributions under tariff Schedule No. 21 could be addressed in a separate

proceeding before the Commission.

Does the Company still intend to file a general rate case in 2006?

, not if the Commission approves this application. The Company believes that

Commission approval of this filing, along with the separate filings with respect to

Larsen, Di - 7Pacifi Corp

the Monsanto and Nu- West special contracts, will resolve the issues previously

raised in Case No. PAC- 05-0l. In addition, the proposed revenue increase

would allow PacifiCorp the opportunity to earn a fair rate of return in its Idaho

jurisdiction. Unless unanticipated or extraordinary events occur, the Company no

longer intends to file an Idaho general rate case during 2006.

Terms of the lIP A Stipulation

What are the key elements of the Stipulation with lIP A?

If approved by the Commission, PacifiCorp would be allowed to implement a

revised Electric Service Schedule No. 10 designed to recover $1.7 million in

additional annual revenue, representing an average rate increase of 5.0 percent.

This revised tariff schedule would become effective as of January 1, 2007.

addition, the Stipulation provides that the Company will defer a total of

$450,000 of the revenue collected under Schedule No. 10 between May 1, 2007

and

September 30, 2007, and refund the total , spread ratably to participants in the

Irrigation Load Control Credit Rider program. The total refund would be paid

no later than December 31 , 2007. The net effect on all Schedule 10 customers

would be an average increase of 3.7 percent in 2007. The signed Stipulation is

included in this application as Exhibit 5.

What is the purpose of the $450,000 refund to participants in the load control

program?

The refund to program participants, which is subject to Commission approval of

the Stipulation, is designed to be an incentive, encouraging additional


participation in the load control program during the 2007 irrigation season. The

refund is in addition to the Load Control Service Credit provided to program

participants under Schedule No. 72.

Were any other considerations given to the Irrigation Load Control Credit

Rider program?

Yes. In accordance with the terms of the Stipulation , the Company agreed to

allow the Load Control Service Credit amount currently in effect for the 2006

irrigation season to remain in effect for the 2007 irrigation season. All other

terms and conditions of the program would remain unchanged.

The Company also agreed to meet with lIP A and other interested parties

prior to November 1, 2006 to study alternatives for evaluating the curtailment

product provided by the irrigators to PacifiCorp.

What is the purpose of those meetings?

The parties will meet and study the load characteristics of interruptible irrigation

customers and their potential impact on cost allocation to both irrigators and other

customer classes. The parties will also evaluate the inclusion of the load control

program in the Company s Integrated Resource Planning process. If the meetings

result in agreement on an alternative method for valuing or structuring the load

control program, such agreement would be reflected in the Company s next

general rate case filing in Idaho.

Impact on the Public Interest

Is this application and Stipulation with lIP A in the public interest?

Yes. The Company submits that the Stipulation and the proposed tariff changes


that accompany this application are reasonable and in the public interest, for a

number of reasons including the following:

The Stipulation allows for a modest 3.7 percent average price impact on

irrigation customers in 2007, moving the class closer to its cost of service

in a year when the Bonneville Power Administration rate ("BP A") credits

passed on to PacifiCorp s irrigation customers will be significantly

reduced. In addition, when comparing PacifiCorp s irrigation rates to

those of other utilities, PacifiCorp s Idaho irrigation customers will

continue to pay some of the lowest electric rates in the nation.

Based on a comparison of the commercial rates of other utilities

across the nation and PacifiCorp s Idaho irrigation rates, and including the

effects of both the proposed increase to Schedule 10 along with the

upcoming changes to the BPA credit in 2007 , PacifiCorp s average Idaho

irrigation price would be ranked third lowest in the nation out of 177

utilities ranked in the most recent Edison Electric Institute Typical Bills

Survey (Winter 2006). This information supports the reasonableness of

the proposed rate increase.

The proposed rate increase to Schedules 10 400 and 401 enhances the

Company s ability to continue to safely and reliably meet the electrical

service needs of customers in Idaho while leaving the rates ofthe majority

of the Company s Idaho customers unchanged. Given that the Company

normalized results of operation suggest that an increase of$19.35 million

would be necessary to achieve a reasonable rate of return, there is little, if


any, risk that an over-earnings situation could result from approving the

requested $8.25 million increase.

Approval of the Stipulation and the separate applications regarding the

Monsanto and Nu- West special contracts, would mitigate the concerns

regarding cost of service and disparity between customer classes identified

in Case No. PAC- 05-01.

The Stipulation provides for meaningful evaluation of the Irrigation Load

Control Credit Rider Program. Such discussions promote communication

and understanding among participants as enhancements to current

regulatory practices are explored.

Approval of the Stipulation and the separate applications regarding the

Monsanto and Nu- West special contracts would avoid a time-consuming

and costly general rate case, achieve regulatory efficiency, and promote

constructive issue resolution between the Company and its customers.

What action is the Company proposing that the Commission take with

respect to this application and Stipulation?

For the reasons stated above, the Company and the Stipulation Party submit that

the Stipulation is reasonable and in the public interest and that its terms

conditions produce rates that are just and reasonable. The Company therefore

recommends that the Commission adopt the Stipulation in its entirety to resolve

the issues in this proceeding and that the terms of the Stipulation go into effect

January 1 , 2007. The Company also recommends that the Commission approve

the separate applications for approval ofthe changes to the Monsanto and


Nu-West special contract rates, and correspondingly approve the revised Schedule

Nos. 10, 400 and 401 included in this application.

Does this conclude your testimony?

Yes.

IN THE MA'ITER OF THE APPLICATION OF PACIFICORP DBAROCKY MOUNTAIN POWER FORA UTHORITY TO INCREASE ITS SCHEDULE NO. 10 RATES FOR ELECTRIC SERVICE TO ELECTRICCUSTOMERS IN THE STATE OF IDAHO

CASE NO. PAC-E-06-

STIPULA TION

This stipulation ("Stipulation ) is entered into by and between PacifiCorp, doing business

as Rocky Mountain Power ("PacifiCorp" or the "Company ) and the Idaho Irrigation Pumpers

Association, Inc. ("lIP A") (collectively referred to as the "Parties ) as of May 24, 2006.

I. INTRODUCTION

The terms and conditions of this Stipulation are set forth herein, The Parties

agree that this Stipulation represents a fair, just and reasonable compromise of the issues raised

STIPULATION - Page

PacifiCorpExhibit No, 5 page 2 of8CASE NO. PAC- O6-Witness Jeffiey K. Larsen

between the Parties and that this Stipulation is in the public interest. The Parties, therefore

recommend that the Public Utilities Commission ("Commission ) approve the Stipulation and all

of its terms and conditions. Reference IDAP A 31.01. 01.271 , 274.

TI. BACKGROUND

Concurrently with the filing of this Stipulation, PacifiCorp is filing an Application

seeking authority to increase the Company s base rates for electric service under Electric Service

Schedule No. 10 by $1.7 million annually, an average increase of approximately 5%. The

increase in Customer bills will vary by individual customer and actual usage.

In anticipation of filing the Application, representatives ofPacifiCorp and lIP

met several times pursuant to IDAPA 31.01.01.271 and engaged in settlement discussions with a

view toward resolving the issues raised in PacifiCorp s Application.

Based upon the settlement discussions between the Parties, as a compromise of the

positions in this proceeding, and for other consideration as set forth below, the Parties agree to

the following terms:

ill. TERMS OF THE STIPULATION

PacifiCorp shall be allowed to implement a revised Electric Service Schedule No.

, designed to recover $1.7 million in additional annual revenue, representing an aggregate rate

increase of 5%. Such revised tariff schedule shall become effective as of January 1 2007. The

Parties agree to support the attached Exhibit A showing the calculation that reflects the agreed

upon rate increase.

PacifiCorp agrees that it will not adjust the Fixed Monthly Participation Credit

currently in effect under Electric Service Schedule No. 72 until after December 31 , 2007. All

other terms and conditions of the Irrigation Load Control Credit Rider program remain

unchanged.

Beginning May I through September 30, 2007 PacifiCorp agrees to defer $90 000

per month, for a total of$450 OOO, ofthe revenue collected from customers under Electric

STIPULATION - Page 2

PacifiCorpExhibit No, 5 page 3 of8CASE NO, PAC- O6-Witness Jeffrey K, Lars

Service Schedule No. 10, which will then be refunded on a pro rata basis to customers

participating in the Irrigation Load Control Credit Rider program during the 2007 irrigation

season. This one-time refund shall be paid no later than December 31 , 2007. The refund rate

shall equal $450 000 divided by the aggregate Irrigation Load Control Service Credit amount

paid to qualifying customers for the 2007 irrigation season (the "Refund Rate ). Each irrigation

customer s refund shall equal the Refund Rate multiplied by each qualifying customer s total

Irrigation Load Control Service Credit paid during the 2007 irrigation season. For purposes of

example only, in the event that the aggregate Irrigation Load Control Service Credit equals $1

million, then the Refund Rate would equal 0,45. If a particular irrigation customer s Irrigation

Load Control Service Credit equals $1 000, then that irrigation customer s one-time refund

would be $450 ($1 000 x 0.45 = $450).

Similar to Commitment 1-08 made by the Company pursuant to the acquisition of

PacifiCorp by MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company (Docket No. P AC- 05-8), the

Company agrees, prior to November 1 , 2006, to meet with IIP A and other interested parties to

study alternatives for evaluating the curtailment products provided by the irrigators to

PacifiCorp. The Parties also agree to study load data and characteristics of interruptible

.. ,. . '.' , ,

m '.irrigation customers and its impact on cost allocation to both irrigators and other customer

classes. As part of this study effort, the Parties agree to collaborate and set up subsequent

meetings to conclude the evaluation. The Parties will also evaluate and consider what

characteristics would be required for the program to be considered in the Company s Integrated

Resource Planning process. In the event the Parties reach agreement on such alternative(s), the

Company will prepare its next general rate case and corresponding tariff schedules using the

agreed upon methodology.

The Parties agree that this Stipulation represents a compromise of the positions of

the Parties in this proceeding. Other than the above referenced positions and any testimony filed

in support of the approval of this Stipulation, and except to the extent necessary for a Party to

explain before the Commission its own statements and positions with respect to the Stipulation

all negotiations relating to this Stipulation shall not be admissible as evidence in this or any other

proceeding regarding this S\Jbject l1la~er.

Service Schedule No. 10, to the Commission and recommend approval in its entirety pursuant to

IDAP A 31.01.01.274. The Parties shall support this Stipulation before the Commission, and

neither Party shall appeal any portion of this Stipulation or Order approving the same. If this

Stipulation is challenged by any person not a party to the Stipulation, the Parties to this__n

any additional material conditions on approval of this Stipulation, each Party reserves the right

upon written notice to the Commission and the other Parties to this proceeding, within 15 days of

the date of such action by the Commission, to withdraw from this Stipulation. In such case, no

entitled to seek reconsideration of the Commission s order, file testimony as it chooses, cross-

examine witnesses, and do all other things necessary to put on such case as it deems appropriate.

terms and conditions are fair, just and reasonable.

12. No Party shall be bound, benefited or prejudiced by any position asserted in the

negotiation of this Stipulation, except to the extent expressly stated herein, nor shall this

Stipulation be construed as a waiver of the rights of any Party unless such rights are expressly

waived herein. Execution of this Stipulation shall not be deemed to constitute an

acknowledgment by any Party of the validity or invalidity of any particular method , theory or

principle of regulation or cost recovery. No Party shall be deemed to have agreed that any

method, theory or principle of regulation or cost recovery employed in arriving at this Stipulation

is appropriate for resolving any issues in any other proceeding in the future. No findings of fact

or conclusions of law other than those stated herein shall be deemed to be implicit in this

Stipulation.
