Petition to Intervene - IPC-E-I5-01
regulated electric utilities and the Bonneville Power Administration; and development of local,
state, regional, and national initiatives to advance sustainable energy policies, including electric
utility rate structures and designs that promote energy conservation. The Alliance pursues these
programs on behalf of its members, many of whom are customers of Idaho Power.
The Alliance has a direct and substantial interest in these proceedings as the Company's request
raises significant policy issues of interest to the Alliance and its members and other Idaho Power
stakeholders. The Alliance has a history of participating before this Commission in cases
relating to Idaho Power's renewable energy programs and initiatives. The Alliance believes its
participation as in intervenor will not complicate or extend this case, nor will its participation
unduly broaden the issues in this case, and that to the extent permitted by Commission rules it
will actively participate in this case as an intervenor.
Therefore and pursuant to Rules 72 and 73 of the Commission's Rules of Procedure, IDAPA
31.01.01 .072 and 073, the Alliance requests that this petition to participate as an intervenor in
Case No. IPC-E-I5-01 be granted.
