4. Bayer has a direct and substantial interest in this proceeding because it is the single-
largest consumer of electricity on PacifiCorp's six-state system, and the allocation of costs
among the states may directly and substantially affect Bayer's electricity costs.
5. Without the opportunity to intervene, Bayer would be without a manner or means of
participating in the lawful determination of issues which will affect its rates for electric service.
Therefore, Bayer respectfully requests that the Commission grant this petition for leave to
intervene and allow Bayer to appear and participate in all matters as may be necessary and
appropriate; to present evidence, call and examine witnesses, cross-examine witnesses, and
present argument; and to otherwise fully participate in this proceeding.
DATED this 291h day of September, 2025.
