Please provide a detailed list with explanation of all cost~cutting measures
undertaken by the Company during 2009 and 2010. Please also provide the
anual quatifiable results of those measures.
Response to IPUc Production Data Request 34
During 2009 and 2010, the Company implemented cost-cutting measures
designed to partially offset the adverse financial impacts of recession-related
reduced retail loads and lower wholesale market prices.
These initiatives were not generally intended to be long~term in natue. Examples
include delaying or cancellng hiring for vacant positions, minimizing overtime,
training, travel and outside consulting costs wherever possible. In addition,
measures were identified to minimize thermal plant downtime and enhance
availabilty wherever possible, and the construction of the McFadden Ridge and
Dunlap wind plants was completed a month earlier than planed. Automation
initiatives were also pursued where prudent: Rocky Mountain Power continued to
expand the implementation of automatic meter reading investments in Utah and
Wyoming.
