When two college athletes suffered serious injuries in a grizzly bear attack last fall,
journeyman lineman Clayton Bales was among the first on the scene to respond and
administer first aid. •
The attack happened on property managed by Bales' parents in Cody,Wyoming. As
soon as he heard what happened, Bales sped over to where the young men were and,
among other actions, removed his own sweatshirt and wrapped it around the more
severely injured person's head to help stanch the profuse bleeding.
Because of the quick first-aid treatment after the attack,the injured students were able
to get the professional medical care they needed. Both were life-flighted to a regional SAFE&SECURE
hospital in Billings, Montana, and underwent multiple surgeries. PacifiCorp safety results as of

Hazel Reid O'Leary is a key Black leader in American STEM history,
having made strides in both the energy sector and the political domain
as the first woman and first Black individual to become U.S.Secretary
of Energy,serving in President Bill Clinton's first term cabinet.
She was born in Newport News,Virginia, in 1937 and experienced
a segregated school system for much of her childhood, before her `
parents sent her and her sister to live in New Jersey with their aunt.
r
She attended an integrated arts school there,and later obtained a
Bachelor's degree at Fisk University,a historically Black university, in
Nashville,Tennessee,where she would later serve as president from
2004 to 2013. She is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha.
O'Leary earned a law degree and worked in the New Jersey Attorney
General's office before moving to Washington D.C.and, later,joining
the federal government.Among several roles, as an appointee to the
Federal Energy Administration's Office of Consumer Affairs, she aided
citizens who lacked the same political capital as large corporations
and major energy interests, helping ensure they were represented in
federal decision-making on energy matters.
Appointed by incoming President Bill Clinton and confirmed
unanimously by the Senate to serve as U.S. Secretary of Energy in
January 1993, Hazel O'Leary had an opportunity to challenge the �»
status quo of American energy policy, particularly when it came to
nuclear weapons—which are overseen by the Department of Energy

At PacifiCorp,we continue on our journey of building a diverse, equitable and inclusive
workplace—one that welcomes and celebrates our differences and is reflective of the
communities in which we live and work. Championing DEI benefits us all by creating a
workplace in which every employee thrives.
To support us in understanding and advancing the diversity of our workforce,we ask
employees to voluntarily self-identify in five categories—disability,veteran status,gender/
gender identity, race/ethnicity and whether an individual identifies as a member of the
LGBTQ community—so that we can obtain a true and accurate picture of our workforce.
Understanding who we are allows us to evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies,
policies and practices we use in our company.
In an effort to increase transparency and showcase our DEI progress,our 2022 year-end
workforce diversity metrics are available on the PacifiCorp DEI intranet page.This SAFE & SECURE
information was obtained through voluntary self-identification information provided by PacifiCorp safety results as of
PacifiCorp employees. 2/24/2023

As NACA became NASA, and as new machines took over for human
calculators, Easley became a programmer of the earliest computers,
adapting to a quickly changing technological landscape. She was a
leader in the development of software for the Centaur rocket stage
that served as a key component in the delivery of vehicles into space,
and she helped evaluate alternative power sources for a number of
NASA's major programs.
Easley's computer coding skills also made her a vanguard for clean
energy—including batteries used in novel electric vehicle concepts.
Her work supported the exploration of solar and wind technologies,
placing her among a community of experts who helped lay the
groundwork for the energy sector in which we work today.
In spite of her formal education and demonstrated skills, Easley was
directed to complete additional internal courses to be considered
qualified,after being hired (as one of only four Black employees) at a
lower pay grade than what she was promised during her interview.

nation's greatest STEM leaders have bridged the gap between the two
industries.
Among such pioneers was Annie Easley—one of the first Black ^'
employees at NASA and an early leader in rocket science and clean
energy development.
Annie jean Easley was born in 1933 in Birmingham,Alabama. Raised
Easley showing an exhibit on electric vehicle concepts
by her mother alongside an older brother, she decided to study
pharmacy, enrolling at Xavier University in New Orleans before
later relocating to Cleveland, Ohio,and refocusing her career on
mathematics.
She'd never heard of the National Advisory Committee for
Aeronautics,the precursor to NASA, but became interested in the
institution after reading an article about twin sisters who served as
"human computers" at the Aircraft Engine Research Laboratory in
Cleveland (later to be known as NASA's Glenn Research Center).
NACA needed people with strong math skills,and Easley decided to
apply just two weeks after her interest was piqued by reading about
the sisters' experiences. Her hiring as a"human computer" herself in
1955 launched a 34-year career,with Easley starting out performing
advanced computations for researchers. Crater on the moon named in honor of Easley by the International Astronomical Union.

These were some of the ways in which clear biases,amidst the
broader racial injustices of the Jim Crow era,affected her career, but
Easley wasn't ground down by these slights—instead, she became an
Equal Employment Opportunity counselor at NASA in order to help
leadership address discrimination complaints and bring about a more
equitable organization.
Annie Easley never sought to be a pioneer,stating in 2001: "1 just have e a i
my own attitude. I'm out here to get the job done, and I knew I had '�' �' i '

the ability to do it,and that's where my focus was"
It wasn't her intent or desire to be the role model and hero that

she's remembered as today, but her contributions show that her
accolades, including a crater on the moon named in her honor,are j
truly deserved.
She left an enduring legacy as a champion of STEM history, helping „
take human beings and their inventions beyond Earth,and helping lay
the groundwork for our clean energy future.
Annie Easley began her career at NASA as a human computer performing complex mathematical calculations.

POLICY & POLITICS

There's always more to learn about an industry as dynamic as ours. Because the energy sector is a foundational part of our society and
economy,the forces that impact our business are complex and far-reaching.Those forces include, in no small part,government institutions at all
levels—local,state and national.
With this new series on energy policy and politics,we'll explore the people and organizations that are shaping our industry now and into the
future.We'll cover a mix of state energy profiles and major energy policies and institutions.
We hope this series provides information that's both interesting and useful in your day-to-day work.
Let's take a look at California, its government and energy regulators.
Pacific Power serves 46,000 customers in the northernmost part of
the state, home to majestic redwood forests and the scenic southern
end of the Cascade mountain range.
As the largest state in the nation, California's energy needs are
significant—but so are its production capabilities. Meanwhile,the CALIFORNIA
state's landscapes are increasingly prone to wildfires, posing challenges
for the reliable delivery of electric power.
On the whole, California is an immense,global-scale economy, larger PacifiCorp service area
in size than that of India.The region that Pacific Power serves is 1
relatively small in population compared to other parts of the state,
but it covers a large geographic area that includes the Klamath and
Shasta-Trinity National Forests and communities such as Crescent

A credit of$132.85 will be applied to the electric bill of each Pacific
Power residential and small business customer in California in March.
The bill credit is part of California's efforts to fight climate change
through a program requiring large industries that emit greenhouse
gases to buy carbon pollution permits.The California Climate Credit,
which is funded by these permit fees, is distributed to customers via
their power bills as electric service providers pass through the credit.
In 2023,the California Public Utilities Commission is accelerating the
distribution of these credits to help energy users manage increasing
costs for heating and the general cost of living.
Usually,these credits are distributed in April and October each year,
but the commission has taken action to alter this schedule and is
considering additional actions that could increase the amount of the
credit planned for October 2023.
Customers can learn more about the California Climate Credit at the

The plan advances reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and the transition '
to clean energy sources.
PacifiCorp on March 31 filed its 2023 Integrated Resource Plan with the six state utility
commissions in the company's service area, advancing its path to net-zero emissions.
The biennial long-term resource plan calls for a dramatic increase of nearly four times the
company's current wind and solar resources to a total of 20,000 megawatts by 2032,in
addition to 7,400 megawatts of energy storage by 2029,as PacifiCorp continues to advance on
its trajectory toward decarbonization and meet state and federal regulations and requirements. 0
The 2023 IRP builds on PacifiCorp's strong reliability by leveraging the abundant diversity
of resources that are available across its vast multi-state transmission network,from the
Rockies to the Pacific Coast.The plan continues investments in innovative emissions-free
technologies, including advanced nuclear and non-emitting peaking resources that meet
high-demand energy needs.
"The advanced nuclear resources that appear in the plan represent a promising future SAFE & SECURE
for our employees and communities in rural Utah and Wyoming," said Rick Link, senior PacifiCorp safety results as of
vice president of resource planning, procurement and optimization at PacifiCorp. 'As we 3/31/2023
transition to a net-zero energy future, it is important to leverage the experience, skills and
dedication of the communities that have supplied our energy needs for the past century."

The Safety Achievement Awards were presented at six safety
training conferences held in four states over two days in March.The
conferences were attended by employees who have stepped up to
the take on the role of safety committee chair, co-chair or secretary
for their location.
Safety committees play an important role in ensuring workplace
compliance with safety regulations and safe work practices.
Federal, state and local regulations and internal policies require safety
meetings at each worksite either monthly or quarterly, depending on
location and job function.The training sessions help managers and
safety committee members coordinate, host and run effective safety
meetings and learn other ways they can help keep the workplace safe. -
The training included:
• How to document and record meeting minutes, make assignments
and follow up on safety related issues. Rexburg distribution operations
• Assisting with facility,vehicle and tool inspections and identifying and

rubber goods,forklift inspections, office-setting safety, and selection
and care of fire-resistant clothing.
In addition to the formal training,guest speakers were invited to

EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT
ouvil6uD cbatfeir/f
Work has officially begun on what has been called the largest dam removal and river
restoration effort in U.S. history. • • ••
The plan to remove the lower four Klamath River dams and restore a 38-mile stretch of
river to a more natural state was formally approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission late last year. •
Crews are now in the field doing the preliminary work for dam removal under the
direction of the nonprofit Klamath River Renewal Corporation.That work includes
bridge upgrades, new road construction to access the dam sites more easily and worksite
development.The project is scheduled for completion by the end of 2024. •
This week,we caught up with Demian Ebert, Klamath program manager,who's
coordinating with the KRRC on the Klamath dam removal project.

POLICY AND POLITICS
Atc,ear ftwa: (4tik-0-
In our Policy& Politics series, we explore and explain the forces that are shaping the energy industry and the people and
institutions, policies and political issues that impact our business.
We hope this series provides information that's both interesting and useful in your day-to-day work.
Let's take a look at Idaho,where we serve 87,000 customers in the
eastern part of the state.
Idaho has a substantial amount of land,and a relatively small population,
making it one of the least densely populated states in the nation. Its
economy's central drivers include manufacturing,agriculture, mining
and forestry,and—key to our sector—it hosts the Idaho National
Laboratory,a major U.S. Department of Energy facility responsible for
immense scientific breakthroughs, including in nuclear energy.
PacifiCorp maintains transmission lines in Idaho that serve as a vital
link between the company's western and eastern service areas.
We're also making more investments in the state: Key segments of
the Gateway West transmission project will run from north-central I D A H O
Oregon through the southern half of Idaho,and from there will link
up with resources in Utah and Wyoming.

Idaho's energy comes predominantly from renewable resources, The Idaho Public Utilities Commission is the state's utility regulator,

PacifiCorp also regularly cooperates with other utilities in the state,
such as through its agreements with Idaho Power and the Bonneville
Power Administration regarding the Boardman to Hemingway
transmission line crossing from north-central Oregon to western
Idaho. ,
These partners also join PacifiCorp as participants in the Western
Energy Imbalance Market, of which PacifiCorp was the first utility
member.The WEIM has since saved PacifiCorp customers more than
$591 million and has grown to save the customers of its 22 members
more than $3.4 billion.The map below shows how most of Idaho is
served by WEIM participants: -

Idaho's energy utility community consists of the investor-owned

Weather is one of the biggest concerns for electric utilities. For decades, our work when
it comes to weather has focused on preparing for storms, responding to storm-caused •
outages, and meeting heightened demand for electricity during very cold or hot weather.
Today,weather is still all those things for us, but we're also responding to new extremes • •
—especially around wildfire risk. Climate and weather conditions are changing, and so are
our plans and responses.
PacifiCorp's ongoing wildfire mitigation efforts enable us to protect the communities we
serve and to continue providing safe, reliable power.
We're investing nearly half a billion dollars in wildfire mitigation strategies over the SAFE & SECURE

Four teams of Rocky Mountain Power journeymen and 51 apprentice linemen from
Idaho, Utah and Wyoming turned out to showcase their technical skills, speed and safety.
One three-man journeyman team and one apprentice from Pacific Power also joined the
day's competition.
Lineman's Rodeo participants compete in four events—speed climb, hurt-man rescue, and
two events simulating typical line work—earning scores based on safety,work practice,
neatness and ability,equipment handling and speed.
Each event is worth 100 points, and points can be deducted for infractions like missing
safety gear, dropping or misusing tools, or poor housekeeping.The top three competitors
in each event are awarded plaques at the evening banquet.You can see the scorecards for
each event on the rodeo website.

Every year, Pacific Power and the Washington Department of Fish&Wildlife team up to
give kids with disabilities an unforgettable experience at the Merwin Fish Hatchery near
Woodland,Washington.
At the 23rd annual Merwin Special Kids Day on July 8, more than 200 kids took home
as many as five fish each,aided by more than 80 volunteers from Pacific Power,the
Washington Department of Fish &Wildlife and many recreational fishing organizations
and corporate vendors. For some kids, it was their first chance ever to catch a fish—and
the biggest catch of the day weighed 6.5 pounds.
The yearly event is always marked by lots of excitement, laughter and notes of gentle
encouragement.When a kid who rarely fishes hooks one,they can't help but smile.The
excitement doubles as they reel it in—usually with the assistance of a volunteer coach—
and as the flopping fish emerges from the water. SAFE & SECURE
"It's phenomenal to watch;" said Kevin Young,who manages the hatchery for Washington PacifiCorp safety results as of
Fish &Wildlife. "Giving kids with disabilities access to fish in the hatchery ponds puts 7/14/2023
smiles on their faces and that is absolutely the reason we're here"

With much of our service area experiencing high temperatures over the past several
weeks, everyone is feeling the heat of summer. The same goes for PacifiCorp's
electrical system, both from the outside temperatures and the increased customer
demand for electricity.
"In Rocky Mountain Power's service area, more electricity is used by our customers
during the summer season than at any other time of the year," said Curt Mansfield, senior
vice president of power delivery.
"On the Pacific Power side, customer energy usage has historically peaked in the winter,
but with extreme weather like the record-setting heat dome last year,coupled with
increased use of air conditioners,the peak load is moving towards summertime."
The demand for electricity typically reaches its highest point on hot summer weekday
afternoons from about 3 p.m.to 8 p.m.That's when power is needed to operate summer
irrigation systems and the ever-increasing number of air conditioners in homes and
businesses. SAFE & SECURE
"Although we see the demand for electricity peak when temperatures rise,we are PacifiCorp safety results as of
confident about our network's readiness for this summer," Mansfield said. 8/4/2023
"Understanding the climate and customer needs helps us provide reliable electricity
during this high-usage season."

August 24 is National Hydropower Day! For over 135 years, hydropower has fueled the
nation with clean, renewable energy. ..
National Hydropower Day was designated to collectively recognize hydropower's
contributions to bolstering the nation's clean energy infrastructure and providing grid •
resilience and reliability.
Hydro is the nation's first and oldest renewable resource,providing clean,carbon-free energy
to roughly 30 million Americans,and 31%of the United States'overall renewable electricity.
At PacifiCorp,we know that hydropower is key to the vitality of our region's energy
infrastructure. It's flexible enough to quickly provide dispatchable generation while keeping •"•
the power system in balance. It can help integrate other renewable resources onto the
grid by generating power when the sun isn't shining and the wind isn't blowing and can be
operated to quickly adjust generation up or down to meet fluctuations in demand.
Hydropower is also key to a cleaner environment.The lands and waterways around these
facilities provide natural recreation opportunities for visitors to enjoy and support thriving
wildlife habitats. SAFE & SECURE
This week,we join with others in the industry to celebrate hydropower's role in building PacifiCorp safety results as of

Thanks to the tireless work of crews in the field, all Pacific Power customers in Del Norte
County, California, now have running electricity.
Transmission lines serving the area have been de-energized since Aug. 18 due to wildifres,
and the company provided a temporary_power solution for nearly all of the 13,000

On Aug.29,Pacific Power received permission from the Joint Incident Management Team on
the Smith River Complex fires to access the Gasquet area of Del Norte County,one of the
last communities to be safely accessible,and begin planning for re-energizing that community.
Crews brought in a large commercial generator and completed installation over the next
two days. After the generator was successfully installed, Pacific Power crews patrolled all
distribution lines serving Gasquet and began restoring power on Aug. 31 in coordination
with the Del Norte County Emergency Operations Center.
Re-energization in the Patrick Creek area began Sept. 1 following reduced evacuation

IN THE NEWS
Rocky Mountain Power's testimony and evidence in our regulatory
filings demonstrate that the proposed increases are almost entirely
due to significant spikes in the costs of natural gas and coal for
our thermal power plants,together with the rising costs of power
purchased on the regional wholesale market,a necessary part of
balancing the power grid to ensure reliable service. Since 2021:
y I • Natural gas fuel prices have risen 89%while coal fuel
prices have increased 38%—sharply increasing the cost of
fueling our power plants.
• Open market power costs have increased 199%—raising
the cost of the power we purchase from the market when
energy demand exceeds our generation capacity.
Rocky Mountain Power does not make a profit on these costs, and
because they occur in large-scale commodity markets,they are
beyond the company's reasonable control.

Removal of the diversion dam restores flows to historic Klamath River canyon
for the first time in nearly a century.
Last week,crews put the final touches on the removal of the Copco No. 2 Dam and its
diversion infrastructure from the Klamath River in northern California.
Removal of the dam structure was completed in September, and crews spent the last
month removing the remaining diversion infrastructure,grading the river channel, and •
performing erosion control.This work prepares the river canyon for consistent river
flows,which the canyon hasn't seen in 98 years. Currently,flows in the canyon are . .
fluctuating due to work being done to prepare Copco No. 1 for drawdown.
"Copco No.2 is the first dam to be removed due to its small stature, location and lack of
reservoir," noted Mark Bransom,CEO of the Klamath River Renewal Corporation,the entity
tasked with the safe and efficient removal of the four lower Klamath hydroelectric dams.
Copco No. 2 was located right below Copco No. 1 in a steep river canyon, commonly SAFE & SECURE
known as Ward's Canyon, named after Kitty Ward, a Shasta woman who lived in the PacifiCorp safety results as of
valley now submerged by the reservoir created by Copco No. 1. 11/10/2023
Completed in 1925, Copco No. 2 was a diversion dam that funneled the river's flows
out of the canyon and into a tunnel system that sent the water to the Copco No. 2
powerhouse located downstream, essentially dewatering the 1.7-mile-long canyon.
Without the river's presence in the canyon,trees grew in the riverbed which,when YTD ON TRACK?
exposed to consistent river flows,would have died off, creating a hazard for future 23
recreationists.These trees were removed in September in collaboration with area tribes.

The remaining three dams, Copco No. 1, Iron Gate and JC Boyle,
are slated for removal next year. In January, KRRC will implement

take less than a month depending on the amount of water entering
the system from spring runoff. Once the drawdown is complete,

NUCLEAR UPDATE
"&I*cw
I am more than excited for the future of nuclear energy and the positive impact it will have for
our families and communities,especially those who have been bringing energy to our homes
and businesses for generations.
I'm honored to be on the forefront of developing nuclear projects for PacifiCorp, and I also
realize that many of us would prefer to transition to a nuclear future as quickly as possible.
Future goals and dreams are most easily planned for in times of certainty and stability.Yet,we
are not in those times.
First-of-a-kind projects with a horizon of a decade take patience,fortitude, resilience, optimism
and just plain grit.Throughout my first year at PacifiCorp, our workforce has shown me these
characteristics consistently,and I see more and more how fitting it is to bring nuclear energy
to the West as an option for transitioning our coal-based energy communities.
Thank you.
