This Intervenor, in its capacity as a representative of industrial customers intends to participate herein as a party, and if necessary, to introduce evidence, cross-exuunine witnesses, call and examine witnesses, and be heard in argument. The nature and quality of evidence which this Intervenor will introduce is dependent upon the nature and effect of other evidence in this proceeding. 5. Without the opportunity to intervene herein, this Intervenor would be without any means of participation in this proceeding which may have a material impact on their ability to net meter electrical production. 6. This Intervenor timely petitioned to intervene in Docket No. IPC-E-I9-15 and is concurrently petitioning to intervene in Docket No. IPC-E-18-16. [t has become apparent as the IPC-E-I8-15 and IPC-E-18-16 cases have evolved that, in order to fully evaluate the issues and discovery responses and requests that are relevant to all three dockets, that Party status in all 2ICIP Intervention - IPC-E-18-15 three dockets will be necessary. In addition, it is the ICIP's understanding that confidential settlement discussions may be taking place on issues that overlap all three dockets. Granting the ICIP intervenor status out of time in this docket will not result in disruption of this proceeding, prejudice existing parties, nor unduly broaden the issues presented in any of the dockets. The ICIP agrees to be bound by and comply with all previously issued scheduling orders, and the discovery process in place in this matter. Finally, Idaho Power's counsel has indicated that Idaho Power does not object to the granting of the ICIP's petition.
