CASE NO. UPL-E-98-1; MOTION OF PACIFICORP FOR EXTENSION OF TIME IN WHICH TO FILE UNBUNDLED COST INFORMATION
On March 26, 1999, PacifiCorp filed a Motion for an Order from the Commission allowing the Company until August 16, 1999, to file a report on unbundled cost information pursuant to Order No. 27678 issued in the Commission’s cost unbundling case for PacifiCorp (Case No. UPL-E-98-1).
PacifiCorp notes that in June 1999, it will submit to the Commission Staff its 1998 results of operations. An unbundled cost report filed by July 1, 1999, as required by Order No. 27678, would reflect 1997 cost data and, PacifiCorp contends, be considerably outdated. The Company proposes to use the 1998 results of operations but will not be able to develop a report based on 1998 data until August 16, 1999.
No person or entity filed a response to PacifiCorp’s Motion. The Commission Staff recommends its approval.
Commission Decision
Does the Commission wish to grant PacifiCorp until August 16, 1999, in which to file its annual unbundled cost information?

The Commission ordered PacifiCorp, Idaho Power and Avista to submit reports to the Commission with updated cost information in the same format used in the original reports submitted in Case No. GNR-E-97-1 (the “generic” unbundling case). Such reports contained unbundled cost of service information and must be submitted to the Commission on or before July 1 of each year.
