)
COMES NOW, Idaho Power Company ("Idaho Power" or "the Company"), by and
through their attorneys, and hereby requests that the Idaho Irrigation Pumpers
Association, Inc. answer the following interrogatories and provide the following information
and documents in accordance with the Commission's Rules of Procedure and applicable
scheduling orders and notices issued by the Commission in this proceeding.

IDAHO POWER COMPANY'S FIRST PRODUCTION REQUEST
TO IDAHO IRRIGATION PUMPERS ASSOCIATION, INC.- Page 1
This production request is to be deemed continuing in nature and the Idaho Irrigation
Pumpers Association is requested to provide, through supplementation, additional
documents or information that is responsive to this request that it, or any person acting on
its behalf, may later come into possession or become aware of.
REQUEST NO.1: Please provide any documents 'or analyses Mr. Yankel relies
on to support his contention that it is appropriate to weight only the growth in load by the
seasonal marginal costs rather than to weight all usage by the seasonal marginal costs.
REQUEST NO.2: On page 30 of his direct testimony, Mr. Yankel states "the
revenue from Schedule 10 was only listed as $70,750,659." Did Mr. Yankel intend to
refer to revenue from Schedule 24? If not, please clarify the rate schedule to which Mr.
Yankel is referring?
REQUEST NO.3: Please describe how the DSM resources report that was
prepared for PacifiCorp and referenced by Mr. Yankel on page 34 of his direct testimony
is applicable to Idaho Power. Please clarify whether Mr. Yankel is referring to
PacifiCorp's Irrigation Load Curtailment Program or to Idaho Powets Peak Reward
Program when he concludes "that it is inappropriate to have a DSM type resource with
such a large advantage to the system being under utiized by the customers because
the credit being paid is such a small fraction of the benefit being realized." If Mr. Yankel
is referring to Idaho Power's Peak Rewards Program, please provide copies of the
analyses performed by Mr. Yankel that support this conclusion.
