Enclosed with this letter is the fifth quarterly progress report. Very truly yours, ¿;-¡J.~~ Lisa D. Nordstrom LDN:csb Enclosures 1221 W. Idaho St. (83702) P.O. Box 70 Boise, 10 83707 Langley Gulch Power Plant Quarterly PUC Update December 2010 \1 infO DEC -I PH 3: 29 PROGRSS UPDATE: This quarerly update summarzes project costs through October 2010 and tasks associated with the Langley Gulch Power Plant though the end of November 2010. The overall project remains on schedule and costs are projected at or below the commitment estimate. Langley Gulch Power Island: The Engineerng, Procurement, and Constrction ("EPC") Contract is a joint ventue between Kiewit Power Engineers ("KPE") and The Industral Company ("TIC"). KPE, the engineerng ar of the EPC contract, is nearng design completion, having issued most all project specifications for equipment and the constrction drawings. All major.. equipment, including piping, valves, pumps, structues, and electrical equipment has been procured. TIC is in full constrction mode. They have completed a majority of the underground work, including the electrcal duct-bans and process piping, as well as completed a majority of the earhwork. The excavated slopes have been stabilized and reseeded. Current constrction tasks are related to foundation preparation for the major equipment. In the last quarer, foundations for the heat recovery steam generator ("HRSG"), combustion turbine, generator, cooling tower, step- up transformers, and crane pad were placed. TIC has also been accepting major equipment deliveries with portions of the HRSG and condenser already arrving on-site. Equipment scheduled for delivery in December is the combustion tubine, generator, and step-up transformers. TIC has approximately 150 people on site, which includes their employees and subcontractors. They are utilzing a mix of local labor, vendors, supplier, and subcontractors. To date, over 100 vendors in the greater Treasure Valley have provided serces on the Langley Gulch project. Idaho Power and the EPC contractor continue to work closely with Siemens on the owner- furnished equipment. The Orlando based Siemens group has finalized all design coordination and has shipped the combustion tubine and generator. Idaho Power personnel attended the generator final electrcal test in October. The combustion turbine and generator is scheduled to arve at the project site in early December. Additionally, ancilar equipment continues to be shipped to the project site. The Sweden based Siemens group is finalizing their drawings for the steam turbine and generator. This equipment is on-schedule and slated to leave the factory in late May 2011. Page 1 of3 Water Supply Pipelie and Gas Pipelie: Constrction stared on the water pipeline and pump station in August. Though November, approximately three miles of pipe has bee instaled. The pump station is also under constrction with the foundation slab and walls completed. Idaho Power has entered into a contract for the engineerng and design serces on the gas pipeline lateral from the tap and meter to the project site. The contract for the tap and meter though Northwest Pipeline has been completed. Design work stared in November with on-site project kick-off meetings; in addition, the surey has been completed. Both of these projects remain on schedule. Transmission Lines and Substation: Two transmission lines are required to connect the Langley Gulch Power Plant to Idaho Power's transmission system. One of the lines wil be energized at 230 kV and the other at 138 kV. Both lines cross a significant portion of Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") propery, and the right-of-way grants from the BLM have been secured. The route selection and design is complete for the 230 kV line. A contract has been awarded for the 230 kV strctue foundations, and this work stared in November. This work is scheduled to be complete by the end of the year, after which Idaho Power crews wil set the strctues and install the line. Ths 230 kV line is scheduled to be in serice by the summer of 20 11. The second transmission line required to interconnect the Langley Gulch project is a 138 kV line to the south. The route primarily utilized BLM lands and rus along State Highway 30. Design for this section of line is scheduled to star in Janua 2011 with constrction estimated to star in the fall of201 1. The 138 kV line is scheduled to be in serce by May 2012. Design of the substation is complete. A contract has been awarded for the substation constrction, including all foundations and strctues. The substation constrction stared in November 2010. This work is planed to be in service by the sumer of 20 11. PERMITTING UPDATE: The permitting process has been completed with the receipt of the right-of-way grants from the BLM for the water pipeline and transmission lines. Idaho Power wil continue to be involved with perit compliance over the duration of the project. Page 2 of3 PROJECT COSTS: The commitment sumar is attached, which also identifies project costs expended though October 2010.
