IDAHO POWER COMPANY'S SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO THE
PRODUCTION REQUESTS OF THE COMMISSION STAFF TO IDAHO POWER COMPANY - 1
"',
SUPPLEMENTAL REQUEST NO.8: On Production Request NO.8, could I get
some clarification. Maggie Brilz indicated that manual intervention within the CiS is
needed to establish customers on TOU programs. She indicated that the manual
process takes 20 minutes to complete. Is that manual process a one time occurrence
when a customer is set up and taken off a TOU program or is the manual process
ongoing each hour, day, week, month, etc.?
RESPONSE TO SUPPLEMENTAL REQUEST NO.8: The manual process
takes 20 minutes to initially set up a customer on a TOU program. The manual process
also takes 20 minutes to remove a customer from a TOU program. The manual
process is not necessary outside of the account set up or removaL.
This response to this Request was prepared by Maggie Brilz, Customer Service
Manager, Idaho Power Company, in consultation with Donovan E. Walker, Corporate
Counsel, Idaho Power Company.

have had 30 customers access their usage data.
