________________________________________
Kevin Dickey (“Dickey” or “Intervenor”), pursuant to the Commission’s Rules of
Procedure 71 through 74, hereby peƟƟons the Commission for leave to intervene and to appear
and parƟcipate in this proceeding as a party, and as grounds therefore states:
1. The name and address of this Intervenor is:
Kevin Dickey
2953 Honey Lane
EmmeƩ, ID 83617
208.841.5354
[e-mail]

Copies of all pleadings, producƟon requests, producƟon responses, Commission
orders, and other documents should be provided to:

Kevin Dickey
PO Box 337

[e-mail]

2. Dickey receives electric uƟlity services from Idaho Power Company (“ID Power”)
as both a residenƟal customer and as an irrigaƟon customer. In this proceeding, Idaho
Power seeks authorizaƟon to increase its annual Idaho jurisdicƟonal revenue by
$99,293,220. This request would result in an overall increase of 7.31 percent and directly
impacts Dickey’s residenƟal and irrigaƟon rates for service. Dickey has a direct and
substanƟal interest in ensuring ID Power rates are just, reasonable, and appropriately
allocated among ID Power’s customer classes.

3. Dickey intends to parƟcipate herein as a party, and if necessary, to introduce
evidence, cross-examine witnesses, call and examine witnesses, and be heard in
argument. The nature and quality of evidence Dickey will introduce is dependent upon
the nature and effect of other evidence in this proceeding.

4. GranƟng Dickey’s PeƟƟon to Intervene will not unduly broaden the issues, nor
will it prejudice any party to this case.

5. Without the opportunity to intervene, Dickey would be without adequate means
to parƟcipate in this proceeding that may have a material impact on his family’s electric
service rates.

6. Dickey is not represenƟng a partnership or corporaƟon.

7. Dickey’s original filing was made one business day aŌer receiving noƟce of ID
Power’s applicaƟon in the mail with his regular power bill. At the Ɵme of filing, Dickey
did not realize that the deadline for peƟƟons had passed, and assumed that it had not,
as he had just been noƟfied. While ignorance of the law excuses no one, Dickey did file
immediately as an intervenor upon receiving noƟce.

8. Dickey does not know if his interests are being fully represented or protected by
the numerous intervenors that filed Ɵmely peƟƟons, thus this amended applicaƟon.
Dickey has mulƟple power interests: residenƟal, irrigaƟon, solar - that may be
individually represented by the other intervenors, but collecƟvely there is no one
intervenor that represents Dickey’s mulƟple interests.

WHEREFORE, Kevin Dickey respecƞully requests that the Commission grant his Amended
PeƟƟon to Intervene in this proceeding and to appear and parƟcipate in all maƩers as may be
necessary and appropriate; and to present evidence, call and examine witnesses, present
argument and to otherwise fully parƟcipate in this proceeding.

Respecƞully submiƩed September 6, 2024.
