ATTORNEY’S CERTIFICATE CLAIM OF CONFIDENTIALITY
I,Daniel E.Solander,represent Rocky Mountain Power in the above captioned matter.I
am Senior Counsel for Rocky Mountain Power.
I make this certification and claim of confidentiality regarding the Confidential Exhibits
1,2,and 3 that were filed April 9,2013 in Case No.PAC-E-13-06,and Confidential Attachment
1 that was filed April 15,2013 in Case No.PAC-E-13-07 pursuant to IDAPA 3 1.01.01 because
Rocky Mountain Power disclosed certain information that is Confidential and constitutes Trade
1
Secrets as defined by Idaho Code Section 9-340 and 48-80 1 and protected under IDAPA
31.01.01.067 and 31.01.01.233.
Rocky Mountain Power herein asserts that the aforementioned exhibits and attachment
are confidential in that the information contains commercially sensitive financial analyses,
request for proposals results,and other information that would jeopardize the interest of and
cause irreparable injury to Rocky Mountain Power if disclosed.Disclosing this information
could also give entities access to competitive information Rocky Mountain Power believes could
be used to disadvantage it and its customers.
I am of the opinion that this information is “Confidential,”as defined by Idaho Code
Section 9-340 and 48-801,and should therefore be protected from public inspection,examination
and copying,and should be utilized only in accordance with the terms of the Protective
Agreement between Rocky Mountain Power and Idaho Public Utilities Commission Staff.

KNOWN DEFECTS TO PROJECT
The St.Anthony turbine assembly experienced a failure in April of 2002.Specifically,ajackshaft that
connected the two turbine units failed.This failure sheared the connecting bolts between the jacksbafl
and turbines,damaged keyways on the turbines and broke the bearing housing of the jackshaft,The
turbines have not been exposed and inspected,but it is likely that they were damaged while rotating
against their housings without the support of the jackahafi and its bearing.Difficulties in establishing
and maintaining alignment ofthe four shafts that connect the turbines and the generator have
repeatedly caused failure of connecting bolts and bearings in the turbine assembly.
Portions ofthe flume,powerhouse,canal,residence structure and office are within the City of St
Anthony streets and road or alley right(s)right of way.
An encroachment on Parcel 8 consisting of a portion ofdecking from neighboring property.
