Re: PacifiCorp Notice of Affiliate Transaction
PacifiCorp and Marmon Industrial Water LLC
Case No. PAC-E-05-8
Pursuant to Commitment 117(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 Marmon
Industrial Water LLC ("Marmon Water") through which PacifiCorp will purchase 12 neoprene
gaskets from Marmon Water to restock its supply for the feedwater system at its Hunter plant.
The purchase will be made through a Purchase Order. A true copy of the Purchase Order is
included with this notice as Attachment A.
PacifiCorp is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of BHE. In turn, BHE is a subsidiary of
Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire"). Berkshire currently holds a majority interest in Marmon
Holdings, Inc., a holding company. Marmon Water is one of the companies owned by Marmon
Holdings, Inc., in its "Water" industry sector portfolio. Therefore, Berkshire's ownership interest
in BHE and Marmon Holdings, Inc. creates an affiliated interest relationship between PacifiCorp
and Marmon Water.
The price of the equipment to be purchased by PacifiCorp under the Purchase Order is
$507.96. Marmon Water is the original equipment supplier and PacifiCorp was unable to locate
alternative sources from which to purchase the replacement gaskets. To PacifiCorp's knowledge,
Marmon Water is the only supplier of this equipment, without which the feedwater system at the
Hunter plant would be impaired. Thus, PacifiCorp's purchase of the gaskets from Marmon Water
is in the public interest.
