IDAHO POWER COMPANY'
) RESPONSE TO THE SECOND
PRODUCTION REQUEST OF THE
) COMMISSION STAFF
COMES NOW , Idaho Power Company ("Idaho Power" or "the Company ) and , in
response to the Second Production Request of the Commission Staff to Idaho Power
Company dated March 7 2007, herewith submits the following information:
IDAHO POWER COMPANY'S RESPONSE TO THE SECOND PRODUCTION
REQUEST OF THE COMMISSION STAFF, Page 1
REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION NO.6: Please explain what information Idaho
Power intends to request from project developers or owners in order to make a
determination as to eligibility under the proposed "Definition of a Small cogeneration
Facility or Small Power Production Facility Eligible to Receive Published Rates." Please
also describe any ongoing evidence or information that projects will be required to submit
in order for Idaho Power to verify continuing eligibility for published rates.
RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR PRODUCTION NO.6: Prior to the first energy
date, the QF would submit the materials described in the section entitled "Dispute
Resolution" of Attachment 2 to the Petition to Idaho Power. Idaho Power will only request
information that the QF's lender would also request so there should be no duplication of
effort for the QF developer. Copies of the documents describing equity ownership and
management responsibilities should cover the required information. Many QF's now use
Limited Liability Companies as the business entity of choice. If that is the entity chosen
the LLC formation documents would also be part of the materials submitted. Other
ownership entities, such as corporations, have similar formation documents that could be
a part of the information needed to satisfy the requirements.
After the initial filing, Idaho Power would anticipate that the triennial filings described
in "Standard Contract Provision" could be as simple as a certification from the current
managing officer that there had been no changes from the prior filing. Of course , if Idaho
Power had reason to believe that there have been changes, additional documentation
would be sought.
