On June 4,2014, Idaho Power Company filed an Application requesting that the
Commission accept or reject an Agreement between Idaho Power and Clark Canyon Hydro,
LLC. On June 26,2014, the Commission issued a Notice of Application and Notice of Modified
Procedure setting a comment deadline of August 5, 2014, and a reply deadline of August 12,
2014
While reviewing the Application, Power Purchase Agreement and other pertinent
documents, some discrepancies were discovered between Clark Canyon's FERC license and its
Power Purchase Agreement with Idaho Power. In order to allow the project an opportunity to
correct the discrepancies and resolve some underlying matters that have arisen with regard to its
project, the parties request that the Commission suspend the procedural schedule in this case.
Idaho Power, Clark Canyon and Commission Staff agree that it is reasonable to suspend the
schedule until Clark Canyon is able to resolve and/or clarify the discrepancies.

resolves the pending matters. At that time, comment deadlines can be reset and the Commission
will be able to consider the Power Purchase Agreement's terms based on the most accurate
information available.
Therefore, Staff respectfully requests that the Commission issue an Order suspending
the procedural schedule in Case No. IPC-E-14-15.
