ORDER NO. 35272 1
Office of the Secretary
Service Date
December 27, 2021
BEFORE THE IDAHO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION
On June 3, 2021, Idaho Power Company (“Company”) applied to the Commission
for authorization to implement revised depreciation rates for electric plant-in-service. The
Company requested that the revised rates be effective as of December 1, 2021, and that its
Application be processed by modified procedure.
On June 24, 2021, the Commission issued a Notice of Application and set a deadline
for interested parties to intervene. Order No. 35089. The Industrial Customers of Idaho Power
(“ICIP”) intervened. Order No. 35114.
On August 24, 2021, Staff notified the Commission Secretary that it was entering
into settlement negotiations with the parties in this case and parties in the related Oregon docket
with intention to agree upon revised depreciation rates and ensure those rates remain consistent
among jurisdictions.
On November 10, 2021, a Settlement Stipulation (“Settlement”) and Joint Motion
to Approve Settlement Stipulation (“Joint Motion”) were filed in this case. The Company, Staff,
and ICIP (collectively the “Parties”) signed the Settlement which included an agreement on
revised depreciation rates. The parties agreed the revised rates should become effective January
1, 2022.
On November 17, 2021, at the Commission’s Decision meeting, Staff recommended
the Commission suspend the Company’s proposed December 1, 2021 effective date and issue
a Notice of Proposed Settlement and Notice of Modified Procedure establishing public
comment and Company reply deadlines.
On November 24, 2021, the Commission issued Order No. 35230 noticing the
proposed Settlement, establishing public and Company reply deadlines, and suspending the
proposed effective date until January 1, 2022. Staff filed the only comments. The Company did
not reply.

CASE NO. IPC-E-21-18
ORDER NO. 35272
ORDER NO. 35272 2
Having reviewed the record in this case, we now issue this final Order approving
the Settlement and the Company’s revised depreciation rates for electric plant-in-service.
BACKGROUND
Depreciation of a utility’s electric plant is “the loss in service value not restored by
current maintenance, incurred in connection with the consumption or prospective retirement of
utility plant in the course of service from causes which are known to be in current operation,
against which the Company is not protected by insurance.” Spanos Direct at 2. For financial
and ratemaking purposes, the Company periodically conducts studies to determine depreciation
rates for each plant account (i.e., the Company’s various plant functions such as steam,
hydraulic, transmission, distribution, etc.). See Order No. 33770 at 1.
Recent changes to the Company’s depreciation rates were approved by the
Commission in 2012 and 2017. On June 1, 2012, the Commission approved the settlement filed
in Case No. IPC-E-12-08 revising depreciation rates for the Company’s electric plant-in-service
based on June 30, 2011. Order No 32559. In 2015, the Company “conducted a new, detailed
depreciation study of all electric plant-in-service,” providing updates to “net salvage
percentages and service life estimates for all plant assets” as of December 31, 2015. On June 1,
2017, in Case No. IPC-E-16-23, the Commission approved the Company’s revised depreciation
rates. Order No. 33770. The Company did not propose changes to depreciation associated with
the Boardman, Bridger, or North Valmy plants due in this case due to previous cost recovery
already approved for Boardman and North Valmy and changes in depreciation associated with
Bridger currently being considered by the Commission in an Application that was filed
concurrently with this case.1 See Order Nos. 32457 and 33771.
THE APPLICATION
The Company’s proposed revised depreciation rates are based on plant account data
as of December 31, 2020. The proposed depreciation rates are based on straight-line, remaining
life method for all electric plant.
The Company proposed to adjust the book reserve of the general plant accounts. The
current rates that are consistent with the amortization period for general plant assets in service
today, and those expected to be added in the future, do not align with the actual book reserve.
1 The Commission is considering the Company’s proposed changes to accelerate the depreciable life of Bridger in
Case No. IPC-E-21-17.
ORDER NO. 35272 3
The Company’s consultant recommended an adjustment to the book reserve of the
Company’s general plant accounts. The Unrecovered Reserve Adjustment for Amortization
quantifies the reserve adjustment of $4.97 million that would be required to bring the general
plant account book reserve amounts in line with the ages of the surviving plant-in-service. The
Company proposed to amortize this amount over five-years, which would increase amortization
expense annually by $993,360.
The Company asked to recover $3,764,914 from customers through a uniform
percentage increase to all base rate components except the service charge. The proposed change
in rates is 0.31 percent.
The Company filed proposed tariff sheets in this case representing the combined
increase requested in this case and the increase requested in Case No. IPC-E-21-17 (Jim Bridger
power plant cost recovery), which were filed at the same time.2
THE SETTLEMENT
The Parties agreed that the Settlement is in the public interest and that all its terms
and conditions are fair, just, and reasonable.
The Parties agreed that the Commission should adopt the depreciation rates set forth
in Attachment 1 to the Settlement. The Parties agreed the magnitude of the resulting
depreciation expense adjustment does not warrant an associated change in retail rates.
The Parties agreed that the revised depreciation rates should be effective January 1,
2022.
The Settlement stated that the agreed-upon depreciation rates represent a
compromise of the differing depreciation methods, theories, and opinions presented in this case,
and do not necessarily reflect an endorsement of the underlying rationale for each adjustment
by any of the Parties.
The Parties used the straight-line method, the remaining life basis, and the average
service life depreciation procedure to calculate the revised depreciation accrual rates.
Attachment 2 to the Settlement shows the depreciation groups where the Parties’ positions
2 The Company requests to increase rates by 2.53 percent in Case No. IPC-E-21-17. The combined increase
proposed in Case No. IPC-E-21-17 and Case No. IPC-E-21-18 is 2.84 percent. On November 17, 2021 the
Commission issued Order No. 35222 suspending Case No. IPC-E-21-17 for the Company to file an update or
request to set the procedural schedule until December 31, 2021.
ORDER NO. 35272 4
differed from the filed depreciation study and the final position agreed to by the Parties
following settlement discussions.
Under Commission Rule 275, “[p]roponents of a proposed settlement carry the
burden of showing that the settlement is reasonable, in the public interest, or otherwise in
accordance with law or regulatory policy.” IDAPA 31.01.01.275.
The Parties agreed to support the Settlement before the Commission and will not
appeal a Commission order approving the Settlement or an issue resolved by the Settlement. If
this Settlement is challenged by any non-party, then each Party reserves the right to file
testimony, cross-examine witnesses, and put on such case as deemed appropriate to respond
fully to the issues presented, including the right to raise issues embodied in this Settlement.
STAFF’S COMMENTS
Staff fully supported the Settlement as filed, believing the Settlement was in the
public interest and that the terms were fair, just, and reasonable. Staff’s analysis focused on the
Company’s largest production, transmission, and distribution electric plant-in-service asset
accounts. Because of Staff’s analysis and its participation in settlement negotiations,
adjustments were made to net salvage percentages and survivor curves to better reflect the
salvage values and asset lives of the Company’s largest asset accounts.
According to Staff, the new depreciation rates contained in the Settlement reduce
future recovery through depreciation by about $64 million over the remaining life of the assets
due to adjustments in net salvage percentages for asset accounts 355.00 (Transmission-Poles
and Fixtures), 356.00 (Transmission-Overhead Conductors and Devices), and 365.00
(Distribution-Overhead Conductors and Devices). Staff analyzed the salvage value and the cost
of removal for each account.
Staff stated that standardized Iowa-type survivor curves were used to determine
realistic forecasts of the remaining useful life of the groups of assets it examined. Using a least
squares method—a method for calculating the residual difference between the survival data and
the proposed Iowa Curve—Staff determined alternative Iowa curves best matched the data.
Staff believed that the Survivor curves agreed upon in the Settlement provide a realistic
representation of the remaining useful lives of the Company’s assets using the best available
data.
ORDER NO. 35272 5
The Settlement also included changes within the Company's depreciation settlement
agreement with Oregon for asset accounts 341.00 (Production Plant-Structure and
Improvements), 344.00 (Production Plant-Generators), and 370.10 (Distribution-Meters-AMI)
to maintain continuity in depreciation rates and asset lives between Idaho and Oregon. The total
calculated annual accrual for depreciation is reduced by $3.3 million compared to the
Company’s original filing.
The Parties also agreed that given the reduction to the annual accrual amount for
depreciation reached through settlement, that no adjustment to Idaho jurisdictional base rates is
required.
COMMISSION DECISION AND FINDINGS
The Commission has jurisdiction over this matter under Title 61 of the Idaho Code.
The Commission is empowered to investigate rates, charges, rules, regulations, practices, and
contracts of public utilities and to determine whether they are just, reasonable, preferential,
discriminatory, or in violation of any provision of law, and to fix the same by order. Idaho Code
§ 61-502 and 61-503. The Company is an electrical corporation under Idaho Code § 61-119
and a public utility under Idaho Code § 61-129.
The Commission considers settlements under Rules 271-277. IDAPA 31.01.01.271-
277. When a settlement is presented to the Commission, the Commission will prescribe the
procedures appropriate to the nature of the settlement to consider it. IDAPA 31.01.01.274.
Further, proponents of a settlement must show that the settlement is reasonable, in the public
interest, or otherwise in accordance with law or regulatory policy. IDAPA 31.01.01.275.
Finally, the Commission is not bound by settlements. Instead, the Commission “will
independently review any settlement proposed to it to determine whether the settlement is just,
fair and reasonable, in the public interest, or otherwise in accordance with law or regulatory
policy.” IDAPA 31.01.01.276.
After reviewing the Settlement and Joint Motion, the Commission adopts and
approves the Settlement as presented. We find that it appropriately resolves issues regarding
reasonable depreciation accruals to be booked in the Company’s affected accounts going
forward. The Settlement also appropriately updates affected survivor curves to better represent
the useful lives of the Company’s assets. We further find that the Settlement is a reasonable
compromise of the issues; by entering such agreement, the Parties resolve such issues, avoiding
ORDER NO. 35272 6
expense, inconvenience, and uncertainty of further litigation. We find that the Settlement is just,
fair and reasonable, in the public interest, and in accordance with the law and regulatory policy
of this State. IDAPA 31.01.01.275 and .276. Accordingly, we accept and approve the
Settlement proposed by the Parties and resulting in no customer retail rate change, without
modification.
ORDER
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Joint Motion is approved. The Commission
hereby adopts the Company’s revised depreciation rates for electric plant-in-service attached in
Attachment 1.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the depreciation rates attached as Attachment 1
shall become effective January 1, 2022.
THIS IS A FINAL ORDER. Any person interested in this Order may petition for
reconsideration within twenty-one (21) days of the service date of this Order about any matter
decided in this Order. Within seven (7) days after any person has petitioned for reconsideration,
any other person may cross-petition for reconsideration. See Idaho Code § 61-626.
DONE by Order of the Idaho Public Utilities Commission at Boise, Idaho this 27th
day of December 2021.
