2.Micron receives electric utility services from Idaho Power Company (“Idaho
Power”) as a Special Contract customer. Micron is Idaho Power’s single largest customer. In this
proceeding, Idaho Power seeks authorization to change the structure and design of its on-site
generation tariffs. As a large customer, Micron has an interest in ensuring compensation paid to
customers with on-site generation is just and reasonable and does not create inappropriate cost
shifts to customers without on-site generation. Micron was also a participant in Case Nos. IPC-E-
18-15, IPC-E-21-21, and IPC-E-22-22 in which the Commission previously considered changes

to Idaho Power’s on-site generation tariffs and ordered Idaho Power to further study the relevant
issues before proposing changes to the tariffs, resulting in this case. Therefore, Micron has a direct
and substantial interest in this proceeding because Idaho Power’s application may affect its rates
for electric service.
3. Micron intends to participate herein as a party, and if necessary, to introduce
evidence, cross-examine witnesses, call and examine witnesses, and be heard in argument. The
nature and quality of evidence Micron will introduce is dependent upon the nature and effect of
other evidence in this proceeding.
4. Granting Micron’s Petition to Intervene will not unduly broaden the issues, nor will
it prejudice any party to this case.
5. Without the opportunity to intervene, Micron would be without adequate means of
participation in this proceeding that may have a material impact on its electric service rates.
WHEREFORE, Micron Technology, Inc. respectfully requests that the Commission grant
its Petition to Intervene in this proceeding and to appear and participate in all matters as may be
necessary and appropriate; and to present evidence, call and examine witnesses, present argument
and to otherwise fully participate in this proceeding.
