SECOND PRODUCTION REQUEST
TO IDAHO POWER COMPANY 1 NOVEMBER 2O,2OI4
In addition to the written copies provided as response to the questions, please provide all
Excel and electronic files on CD with formulas activated.
REQUEST NO.3: Idaho Power's application states under Paragraph l5 that "[c]onsistent
and material deviations from the hourly energy estimates in the generation profile will be considered
by Idaho Power to be a material breach of the agreement--meaning that the entire pricing is
fundamentally flawed as a result of an inaccurate generation profile". Please discuss how consistent
and material the deviations need to be before the entire pricing can be considered fundamentally
flawed, and before Idaho Power would consider this to be a material breach of the agreement.
REQUEST NO. 4: If the entire pricing is considered fundamentally flawed, what actions
would Idaho Power take?
