OF IDAHO POWER COMPANY FOR
AUTHORITY TO INCREASE ITS RATES
AND CHARGES FOR ELECTRIC
SERVICE TO ITS CUSTOMERS IN THE
ST ATE OF IDAHO
ORDER NO. 30627
CASE NO. IPC-08-
On August 7, 2008, Stephen Telford, local counsel, filed a Motion with the Idaho
Public Utilities Commission for limited admission of Arthur Perry Bruder in the above-captioned
proceeding, and to excuse Mr. Telford from attendance at all proceedings before it in the above-
captioned matter. Reference Idaho Bar Commission Rule 222; IPUC Rule of Procedure 19.
Mr. Bruder certifies that he is an active member in good standing of the New York
State Bar and that he maintains the regular practice of law as an attorney in the Office of the
General Counsel of the United States Department of Energy at 1000 Independence Avenue SW
Washington, D.C. Mr. Bruder further certifies that he is not a resident of the State of Idaho, that
he is not licensed to practice in Idaho, and that he has not previously sought admission under
mCR 222 or Rule 19 of the Commission Rules of Procedure.
Both Mr. Telford and Mr. Bruder certify that the Motion has been electronically
served on all parties to this proceeding, that a copy of the Motion has been provided to the Idaho
State Bar, and that DOE's Idaho Operations Office is arranging to transmit, and shall within the
next two weeks transmit, the necessary $200 fee to the Idaho State Bar.
The Commission has reviewed the Motion of the United States Department of Energy
for Limited Admission and to Excuse Local Counsel in the above-captioned proceeding, and the
related practice rules and Rules of Procedure, i., mCR 222 (Limited Admission - Pro Hac
Vice) and Commission Rule of Procedure 19 , IDAPA 31.01.01.019. Based on the filings of
record and certified representations of Mr. Telford and Mr. Bruder, we find that reasonable
grounds have been demonstrated to justify the granting of limited admission to Mr. Bruder as
legal counsel for the United States Department of Energy in the above-captioned proceeding.
We further find it reasonable to excuse Mr. Telford from attendance at the proceedings before
the Commission in this matter.
