CASE NO. PAC-E-23-01
ORDER NO. 35839
On January 27, 2023, Rocky Mountain Power, a division of PacifiCorp (“Company”) filed
an application (“Application”) requesting an order granting a Certificate of Public Convenience
and Necessity (“CPCN”) for Energy Gateway Segment H, the Boardman-to-Hemingway 500-
kilovolt (“kV”) transmission line (“B2H” or “Project”). The Company represented that it will co-
own B2H with Idaho Power Company (“IPC”), which recently filed its own CPCN application for
the Project in Case No. IPC-E-23-01.
On February 8, 2023, the Commission issued a Notice of Application and Notice of
Intervention Deadline. Order No. 35678. Idaho Irrigation Pumpers Association, Inc. (“IIPA”) and
Bayer Corporation (“Bayer”) both intervened. Order No. 35686. On April 5, 2023, the
Commission issued a Notice of Modified Procedure setting forth comment deadlines. Order No.
35726. On May 4, 2023, the Commission issued a Notice of Customer Hearing, and on June 12,
2023, the Commission held a Customer Hearing in Idaho Falls. Order No. 35769.
APPLICATION
The Company represented that B2H is an approximately 300-mile-long, 500-kV electric
transmission line that will extend from a switching station constructed near Boardman, Oregon to
the existing Hemingway Substation located in Owyhee County, Idaho. The Company stated that
approximately two hundred and seventy-four (274) miles of the transmission line will be in five
Oregon counties: Malheur, Baker, Union, Umatilla, and Morrow Counties, and a 24-mile segment
of the Project will be in Owyhee County in Idaho.
The Company represented that B2H will also include ten communication stations along the
route that are constructed within the right-of way of the transmission line, and B2H will also
include the installation of the B2H Midline Series Capacitor Project and development of a remedial
action scheme.
ORDER NO. 35839 2
The Company represented that B2H enables lower-cost and more reliable transmission
service to serve customer load and increases transmission connectivity between PacifiCorp East
(“PACE”) and PacifiCorp West (“PACW”) and will enable the Company to cost-effectively, and
reliably, serve growing customer load. The Company stated that these benefits primarily result
from cost savings in serving load in central Oregon and near the proposed Longhorn substation.
The Company represented that B2H is the most cost-effective means of serving the
Company’s load, and that without B2H, the Company would be required to acquire higher-cost
generation resources and third-party transmission service, which together would increase customer
costs by approximately $1.713 billion through 2042.
The Company represented that the cost savings are all based on an anticipated 2026 in-
service date for B2H. The Company stated that to ensure that the Project can be energized in time
for a 2026 in-service date, construction must begin in the summer of 2023. The Company requested
that the Commission issue an order on its Application no later than June 30, 2023.
STAFF COMMENTS
Staff reviewed the Company’s Application and responses to discovery requests. Based on
its review, Staff believed that the Company needs to increase the capacity of its transmission
system to enable it to meet loads across its east and west balancing areas, and that the proposed
B2H project is the least-cost, least-risk, solution. Staff recommended that the Commission:
1. grant a CPCN for the Company to construct the B2H transmission line but make
recovery contingent on approval of all agreements requiring Commission approval,
and the Commission’s determination of prudence of actual costs.
2. direct the Company to include evidence of its pursuit of alternative funding sources
for the project when the Company files for recovery.
3. establish a soft cap for the recoverable value of the project, which will be compared
to the all-in total B2H costs including non-B2H expenses that may be incurred if
B2H fails to stay on schedule and needs to mitigate any capacity shortfalls.
4. direct the Company to provide a detailed breakdown of the soft cap cost
components in a subsequent compliance filing, with input from Staff on which
components to include.
Project Description
The Application describes B2H and several other infrastructure project agreements that the
Company represents are necessary to ensure the full benefits of B2H are realized for each party.
Staff presented an inclusive list of the various infrastructure projects categorized by agreement
type.
ORDER NO. 35839 3
1. The Boardman to Hemingway Transmission Line Project
The primary project seeks to acquire rights of way (“ROW”) and construct approximately
300 miles of 500-kV transmission lines between Boardman, Oregon, and Owyhee County, Idaho.
It will also:
• Construct or improve access roads for the transmission line;
• Construct communication regeneration sites along the transmission line;
• Rebuild or remove certain other transmission line segments;
o Remove 12 miles of 69-kV transmission line;
o Rebuild 1.1 miles of 138-kV transmission line;
o Rebuild 0.9 miles of 230-kV transmission line;
• Construct the Longhorn substation;
• Upgrade the Hemingway substation; and
• Construct the Midline Series Capacitor substation.
B2H will be constructed through a partnership between the Company and IPC, in which the
Company will fund and own 55.55 percent, and IPC will fund and own 45.45 percent. IPC will be
responsible for managing the construction.
2. Central Oregon Agreements
The Company and BPA have negotiated a set of agreements (“Central Oregon
Agreements”) that will more effectively support transmission in central Oregon. The major
elements are:
• PAC-BPA agreement to revise or establish 15 point-to-point (“PTP”) transmission
service tables that will, upon B2H energization, provide PAC with 340 MW of
transmission rights from the north, and 340 MW of transmission from Summerlake,
to the central Oregon load;
• PAC-BPA agreement for PAC to upgrade the existing Meridian Series Capacitor
at the Meridian substation (or an equivalent series capacitor in the Dixonville-
Meridian-Klamath Falls-Captain Jack lines); and
• PAC-BPA agreement to provide BPA 1000 MW of bi-directional capacity in the
Summerlake – Malin Line.
3. Asset Exchanges
The Company and IPC have agreed to a collection of future asset exchanges and
construction projects (“Asset Exchanges”), designed to be implemented if B2H is energized. The
proposed Asset Exchanges are:
ORDER NO. 35839 4
• IPC will transfer to the Company transmission assets between Midpoint and Borah
for 300 MW west-to-east capacity;
• IPC will transfer to the Company transmission assets between Borah and
Hemingway for 600 MW east-to-west capacity;
• The Company will transfer to IPC transmission assets between Populus and Four
Corners for 200 MW of bi-directional capacity;
• The Company will transfer to IPC transmission assets in the Goshen area;
• IPC will construct the Midpoint 500/345-kV transformer project; and
• IPC will construct the Kinport-Midpoint 345-kV series capacitor project.
4. Miscellaneous Agreements
Miscellaneous other agreements between the three entities will go into effect at various
times:
• BPA will transfer to the Company two 100 MW PTP Transmission Service
Agreements (“TSA(s)”) it has with IPC;
• IPC will buy out BPA’s 24 percent ownership share of B2H, increasing IPC’s
ownership and funding responsibility to 45 percent. IPC will also reimburse BPA
for its share of the permitting expenses incurred over the last decade.
• In return for IPC’s buyout, BPA will commit to purchasing long term TSAs from
IPC to deliver power to BPA’s customers in southeastern Idaho; and
• IPC and BPA will establish a 500 MW PTP TSA from the Mid-Columbia (“Mid-
C”) market hub to the proposed Longhorn substation.
CPCN Analysis
Staff recommended that the Commission grant a CPCN for the Company to construct the
B2H. Staff also recommended that the Commission clarify that the CPCN does not include the
other agreements described in the Application, and those other agreements should be submitted
for separate approval if, and when, appropriate. Staff recommended that when the Company does
file for recovery of actual cost, it should include evidence of its pursuit of government funding
sources for the project.
For authority to construct or extend a transmission line, Idaho Code § 61-526 requires the
Company to obtain “from the Commission a certificate that the present or future public
convenience and necessity require or will require such construction.” Additionally, the Company
must show “the financial ability and good faith…and necessity of additional service in the
community.” Idaho Code § 61-528.
ORDER NO. 35839 5
Staff believed the Company has repeatedly demonstrated its financial ability to obtain
capital for a project of this scale. Staff also accepted the Company’s assertion that the financial
investment for the B2H will not impair its ability to provide safe and reliable electricity service at
reasonable rates. Further, based upon the Company’s submitted documentation and
representations, Staff believed that the Company’s assertion of need is reasonable.
However, Staff noted that the Company is not seeking a CPCN for the Central Oregon
Agreements, the Asset Exchanges, or the other miscellaneous agreements. Staff recommended that
the Commission clearly state that CPCN approval does not implicitly approve the other
agreements, such as the Asset Exchanges, and that the Company should file applications for
Commission approval when appropriate.
B2H as a Solution
The Company represented that it expects B2H to provide 300 MW of west-to-east
transmission capacity and 818 MW of east-to-west transmission capacity, which will help the
Company serve its customer load across both balancing authority areas. Staff’s analysis identified
that the effectiveness of B2H will depend on its successful construction, and on other agreements
that are external to the transmission line. For the Company, the Asset Exchanges and the Central
Oregon Agreements are also essential to meet the system need.
Assuming the project and the related actions are completed, Staff concluded that B2H will
resolve the system need. However, given that the additional agreements will require separate
Commission approval, Staff recommended granting approval of the CPCN but making recovery
contingent on the Commission’s approval of those additional agreements.
Staff reviewed the cost of B2H against the next least-cost alternative to assess the
decisional prudence of the project. From this review, Staff believed that selecting B2H was a
prudent decision. For operational prudence, Staff represented that it will review the actual project
costs once the Company files a subsequent case seeking recovery.1
Separately, Staff is concerned that the Company has not pursued alternative funding such
as grants that could potentially reduce the impact to ratepayers. Staff recommended that when the
Company seeks recovery of costs for the B2H, the Company should provide evidence of
1 Decisional prudence is a determination that the “decision” to move forward with an investment is based on need and
in this case is the least cost alternative. Operational Prudence is a determination that the Company implemented the
investment in a least-cost manner.
ORDER NO. 35839 6
conducting investigations, analyses, and/or applications for grants or alternative funding from
federal, state, or local agencies.
Risks and Soft Cap
Staff recommended that the Commission establish a soft cap, as reflected in response to
Production Request No. 3(b) and as shown in Confidential Staff Attachment A that was attached
to Staff’s comments, for the recoverable cost of constructing the project.
Staff believed that the total cost of the project plus any additional cost necessary to meet
load if the project fails to stay on schedule should be part of the all-in total B2H costs that will be
compared to the established soft cap. Staff reasoned that the soft cap should be the threshold that
will require the Company to provide robust justification for construction costs over the cap to
receive recovery.
Staff believed the Company faces significant risks throughout the entire project life cycle
that may ultimately impact customers. Table No. 1 summarizes the three types of project risk and
the key issues contributing to them.
Table No. 1: Project Risks
Capability Risks Schedule Risks Cost Risks
Longhorn Substation:
B2H will be unusable without
this interconnection.
Longhorn Substation:
The permitting process is in
progress and the construction
timeline is unknown.
Longhorn Substation:
The cost of an alternative is
unknown.
ROW Acquisitions:
B2H cannot be built without
the ROW(s).
ROW Acquisitions:
ROW delays might delay
construction, especially if legal
action becomes necessary.
ROW Acquisitions:
ROW negotiations have the
potential to increase costs.
Boardman-Ione (“B-I”)
Alternate Transmission Path:
B2H cannot be completed
without relocating this line.
B-I Alternate Transmission Path:
An alternate line is in the early
stages of permitting, followed by
construction of the line, then
demolition of the old line.
B-I Alternate Transmission
Path:
The alternate path and cost are
not certain, and environmental
mitigation may be required.
Supply Chain:
Substantial delays exist for key
project materials.
Inflation:
High inflation persists,
especially for key project
materials.
Outstanding Permits:
Various project permits are
outstanding, and delays are typical.
ORDER NO. 35839 7
1. Project Capability Risk
Project capability risk is the risk that an essential part of the project cannot be completed,
thereby preventing completion of the overall project. Without proper interconnection, B2H will
not be usable. Staff identified three capability risk issues for B2H: (1) Construction of the
Longhorn substation; (2) Acquisition of the ROWs to construct B2H; and (3) Establishment of an
alternate transmission path for BPA’s B-I line.
Although any of these issues, or other unforeseen issues, could prevent the successful
completion of B2H, Staff assumed that the Company would find a workaround to complete the
project and make it useful. Staff concluded that these capability risks may translate into increased
project costs and/or schedule growth. Therefore, Staff made no recommendation for capability
risk.
2. Project Schedule Risk
Project schedule risk is that risk that delays may manifest as cost risk to ratepayers. Staff
identified five risk issues that have potential to delay the overall project schedule: (1) Construction
of the Longhorn substation; (2) ROW acquisitions for B2H; (3) The B-I alternate transmission
path; (4) Supply chain delays; and (5) Outstanding permits.
The current planned in-service date for B2H is June 1, 2026. If B2H is not online at that
time, the Company may need to incur additional expenses outside of B2H to provide additional
capacity for the central Oregon load growth. Staff recommended that if circumstances delay the
project beyond the planned in-service date, the Commission should require the Company to track
and report any expenses incurred outside of B2H to cover central Oregon capacity deficits until
B2H is online. Staff believed that these expenses should be part of the all-in total B2H costs
compared to the soft cap limit.
3. Project Cost Risk
Project cost overruns represent a direct risk to ratepayers, who will be asked to recover the
full cost. Staff identified four cost risk issues that have potential to drive the project cost beyond
the current estimate: (1) The Longhorn substation; (2) ROW acquisitions; (3) The B-I alternate
transmission path; and (4) Inflation.
Staff explained that the Company has retained experienced engineering firms to refine the
project estimate and has shown due diligence in responsibly estimating the project cost. The
ORDER NO. 35839 8
Company has also established cost control policies, in cooperation with IPC, to provide reasonable
oversight of the project costs.
However, to further protect customers, Staff recommended that the Commission place a
soft cap on the project in accordance with the Application estimate. If the final project cost exceeds
the soft cap, the Company should provide convincing evidence of its efforts to remain within the
cap, the reasons it had to exceed the cap, and justify any overages at the time recovery is requested.
Quantifying the cost of a complex project like B2H requires careful attention to many
details. Items that must be specified include the date of the estimate, major construction features,
contingency markups, shared and unshared costs between partners, financing costs, and taxes.
Staff requested that the Company provide a detailed breakdown of these costs in Production
Request No. 3, but the Company only provided the bottom line total, sub-divided into direct and
overhead costs.
Staff recommended that the Commission use the Company’s bottom line total estimate as
the soft cap for any future recovery. Staff also recommended that the Commission require the
Company to provide a detailed breakdown of the cost components in a subsequent compliance
filing. This detailed breakdown will provide benchmarks to assist Staff and the Company in any
future cost recovery filing. Staff believed that the Company should consult with Staff to determine
an appropriate level of cost component breakdown.
4. Other Risk
Staff identified and analyzed several other risks that are external to the construction of the
project but may result in unrealized benefits after the project is put into operation. These risks
include the Asset Exchanges, and the Central Oregon Agreements. However, Staff believed its
analysis of these costs and benefits from the project supports the CPCN when comparing it to the
costs and benefits of the next best alternative. Staff recommended that recovery for the cost of the
project be contingent on both the Company and IPC obtaining Commission approval of the Asset
Exchanges.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
The Commission received three (3) public comments in this case, two (2) comments in
favor of the Project, and one (1) comment opposed.
ORDER NO. 35839 9
BAYER COMMENTS
Bayer noted that the Company has also requested a non-situs CPCN for B2H from the
Wyoming Public Service Commission (“WPSC”) in Docket No. 20000-631-EN-23, and that a
Stipulation and Settlement Agreement between the Company and the Wyoming Industrial Energy
Consumers (“WIEC”) was reached on April 17, 2023, regarding the Company’s B2H application
before the WPSC to address certain issues raised by WIEC.
Bayer recommended that the Commission require the Company to provide similar
protections to customers in Idaho that have been proposed in Wyoming in its Stipulation and
Settlement Agreement with WIEC. Specifically, Bayer requested that the Commission:
a. require the Company to preserve all analyses, studies and documents pertaining to its
Application, including studies related to B2H in PacifiCorp’s 2021 Integrated Resource
Plan (“IRP”) and 2021 IRP Update, until the conclusion of the rate case in Idaho.
b. require the Company to agree to preserve all analyses, studies and documents pertaining to
its Application, including studies related to B2H in PacifiCorp’s 2023 Application for
Approval of 2023 IRP, until the conclusion of the rate case in Idaho.
c. condition approval such that the issuance of a CPCN will not predetermine any ratemaking
issues for B2H, including the prudence of B2H’s construction, the reasonableness of B2H’s
costs recovered from Idaho ratepayers, findings concerning the public interest or non-
detriment of the provision of adequate and reliable electric service of the B2H, and the
allocation of B2H’s costs to the Company’s Idaho customers.
d. not apply Mr. Rick T. Link’s testimony, concerning a forecast of the change in nominal
revenue requirement due to B2H, to any ratemaking issues for B2H.
IIPA COMMENTS
IIPA represented that nearly one-third of IIPA’s members are customers of the Company.
As customers, IIPA’s primary interest in this docket is to ensure that the Company provides safe,
reliable, and low-cost energy. A portion of IIPA’s members also provide valuable demand
response service to the Company. IIPA’s secondary interest in this proceeding assesses the impact
of B2H on the Company’s demand response program. IIPA represented that it was generally
supportive of B2H. However, IIPA has not performed a comprehensive analysis and validation of
the Company’s models and analysis of project design or economics.
Based upon its review of the Application including issue of Energy Costs, System
Reliability, and the impact on Irrigation Demand Response, IIPA believed that a CPCN for B2H
is in the public interest and should be issued by the Commission.
ORDER NO. 35839 10
COMPANY REPLY COMMENTS
With respect to Staff’s comments, the Company only objected to Staff’s recommendation
for a soft cap. The Company represented that the Asset Exchanges would take effect upon
energization of B2H and therefore the Company would seek Commission approval before that
point, in advance of seeking cost recovery. The Company expected to demonstrate the prudence
of its actual costs when seeking cost recovery for B2H.
The Company was prepared to demonstrate that it had diligently pursued alternative
funding sources for B2H. The Company represented that because B2H is already in the advanced
stages of planning, it is not currently eligible for federal funding. However, if new funding
becomes available or guidelines for existing funding sources change, the Company will pursue
these opportunities.
The Company did not agree that a soft cap was necessary and expected to demonstrate the
prudence and cost-effectiveness of the entirety of its actual investment in B2H. However, if the
Commission chose to impose a soft cap, the Company did not object to working with Staff to
provide a more detailed breakdown of its cost estimate in a subsequent compliance filing.
With respect to IIPA’s comments, the Company agreed with IIPA’s overall
recommendation; however, the Company has not independently verified IIPA’s economic
analysis. The Company represented that its economic analysis is set forth in Rick T. Link’s
testimony and provides the Company’s estimation of net customer benefits supporting the decision
to move forward with B2H.
With respect to Bayer’s comments, the Company partially agreed to Bayer’s
recommendations. The Company noted that there are some differences in the CPCN statutes in
Idaho and Wyoming that render certain Stipulation provisions inapplicable in this case.
The Company did not object to Bayer’s first and second recommended conditions, which
relate to the production and preservation of records and largely mirror a similar commitment made
in the Wyoming Stipulation. However, the Company objected to Bayer’s third condition because
it asked that the Commission make no findings concerning the public interest even though a public
interest determination is central to the Commission’s review of a CPCN under Idaho Code § 61-
526. The Company represented that Bayer’s condition is inconsistent with the Wyoming
Stipulation because Bayer seeks to preclude the prudence and public interest determinations
required to satisfy the need standard under Wyoming’s non-situs CPCN statute.
ORDER NO. 35839 11
The Company objected to Bayer’s fourth recommendation regarding the testimony of Mr.
Rick T. Link. The Company argued that Bayer provided nothing explaining what this
recommendation was intended to do, how it would be applied, or why it was necessary. The
Company believed that the recommendation was unclear and appears entirely unnecessary, and it
should be rejected.
COMMISSION FINDINGS AND DECISION
The Commission has jurisdiction over the Company’s Application and the issues in this
case under Title 61 of the Idaho Code including Idaho Code §§ 61-301 through 303. The
Commission is empowered to investigate rates, charges, rules, regulations, practices, and contracts
of all public utilities and to determine whether they are just, reasonable, preferential,
discriminatory, or in violation of any provisions of law, and to fix the same by order. Idaho Code
§§ 61-501 through 503.
1. Necessity of the CPCN
Public utilities shall “furnish, provide and maintain such service, instrumentalities,
equipment and facilities as shall promote the health, safety, comfort and convenience of its patrons,
employees and the public, and as shall be in all respects adequate, efficient, just and reasonable.”
Idaho Code § 61-302.
Before constructing “a line, plant, or system,” a public utility providing electrical service
must obtain a CPCN from the Commission establishing that the “public convenience and
necessity” requires it. Idaho Code § 61-526. Pursuant to Idaho Commission Rule of Procedure
112, existing utilities applying for the issuance a CPCN under Idaho Code § 61-526 must submit
any relevant data including: (1) a Statement and Explanation; (2) a Description of Construction or
Expansion; (3) a Map; (4) a Financial Statement and Construction Timelines; and (5) Cost
Estimates and Revenue Requirements.
Having reviewed the Application, the record, the comments of the parties, and all submitted
materials, the Commission finds that the Company has satisfied the requirements for a CPCN and
finds that the present and future public interest is served by and requires construction of the
Boardman-to-Hemingway 500-kV transmission line project in the manner, time frame, and at the
location proposed. Idaho Code § 61-526; Rule 112. The Commission makes no findings with
respect to any other agreements or transfers contained, referenced, or described in the Application,
and any such other agreement shall be subject to future Commission review as applicable.
ORDER NO. 35839 12
2. Soft Cap and Future Recovery
Staff recommends that the Commission establish a soft cap for the recoverable cost of
constructing B2H, and Staff believes that the actual cost of the Project, plus any additional cost
necessary to meet load if the Project fails to stay on schedule, should be the total B2H costs
compared to the established soft cap when the Company seeks recovery. The Company does not
believe that a soft cap is necessary as it expects to demonstrate the prudence and cost-effectiveness
of the entirety of its actual investment in B2H; however, the Company does not object to working
with Staff to provide a more detailed breakdown of its cost estimate in a subsequent compliance
filing.
Based upon the risks the Company faces throughout the project life cycle, the impact those
risks may have on customers, and the requirement of future Commission approval for any other
relevant agreements that may be necessary for the Company and customers to obtain the full
benefits of B2H, the Commission finds it fair, just, and reasonable to establish a soft cap on the
recovery of costs in the amount of the Company’s estimated costs as calculated in the Company’s
Application and testimony. Vail, Di at 10. In the future the Company should expect to provide
detailed support and justification when it comes before the Commission seeking recovery for any
costs over the established soft cap. The Company shall work with Staff to provide a separate filing
in this case with a detailed breakdown of the soft cap cost components.
When the Company does seek recovery of costs for the B2H, the Company shall provide
evidence of the Company’s investigations; analyses; applications for grants; or any attempts the
Company made to secure alternative funding from federal, state, or local agencies. The
Commission also expects the Company to preserve all analyses, studies and documents pertaining
to its Application, including studies related to B2H in the Company’s 2021 IRP; the 2021 IRP
Update, and the Company’s 2023 IRP until the conclusion of any recovery proceedings.
ORDER
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Company’s Application for a Certificate of
Convenience and Necessity authorizing construction of the Boardman-to-Hemmingway 500-kV
Transmission Line is granted.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Commission establishes a soft cap for the
recoverable cost of constructing B2H in the amount of the Company’s estimated costs as calculated
in the Company’s Application and testimony. Vail, Di at 10.
ORDER NO. 35839 13
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Company shall work with Staff to submit a separate
filing in this case within sixty (60) days that provides a detailed breakdown of the soft cap cost
components.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that upon seeking recovery, the Company shall provide
evidence of its pursuit of alternative funding sources for the B2H.
THIS IS A FINAL ORDER. Any person interested in this Order may petition for
reconsideration within twenty-one (21) days of the service date upon this Order regarding 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. Idaho Code §§ 61-626
and 62-619.
