Rocky Mountain Power Assistant General Counsel 1407 W.North Temple,Suite 320 Salt Lake City, UT 84116 801-220-4565 Office Tim.Clark@pacificorp.com July 11, 2024 VIA ELECTRONIC FILING Idaho Public Utilities Commission 11331 West Chinden Boulevard Building 8 Suite 201A Boise, Idaho 83714-1021 Attention: Commission Secretary Re: PacifiCorp Notice of Affiliate Transaction PacifiCorp and Kern River Gas Transmission Company. Case No. PAC-E-05-8 Pursuant to Commitment I 17(2), incorporated in the Idaho Public Utilities Commission Order No.29973,issued February 13,2006,as supplemented by Order No.29998 March 14,2006, in the above-referenced proceeding, approving the acquisition of PacifiCorp by MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company (now Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company or BHE), PacifiCorp hereby provides notice of an affiliated interest transaction with the Kern River Gas Transmission Company ("KRGT"). The parties entered into an agreement whereby PacifiCorp will obtain an encroachment permit(the"Permit")from KRGT.The Permit allows PacifiCorp to install electrical facilities across KRGT's pipelines and right-of-way in Utah County, Utah. A verified copy of the Permit is included here with this notice as Attachment A. PacifiCorp is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy Company (`BHE"). KRGT is also a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of BHE. Therefore,BHE's ownership interest in both entities creates an affiliated interest relationship between PacifiCorp and KRGT. A pipeline system owned and operated by KRGT transports natural gas to several western states. Some of its Utah pipelines are sited within Utah County in an area used by PacifiCorp. This Permit is needed by PacifiCorp to install a new power conduit across KRGT's pipelines and right- of-way to provide service to customers. For the safe operation of KRGT's and PacifiCorp's facilities, PacifiCorp will carry out the installation in compliance with the encroachment specifications included in Attachment A. Acquiring the Permit is in the public interest because it facilitates PacifiCorp's service to its customers. The Permit will be provided at no cost with the understanding that PacifiCorp will cause the encroachment at no expense to KRGT, and that PacifiCorp shall be responsible for restoring all land that was disturbed by its encroachment. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Idaho Public Utilities Commission July 11, 2024 Page 2 Sincerely, .c-, Cl.-. Timothy K.
