The assets consist of a transformer, underground cable and other equipment required to serve Jayco’s manufacturing facility in Twin Falls. These assets were installed solely for the benefit of providing electric service to Jayco. They are located beyond the point of delivery but are owned, operated and maintained by Idaho Power in exchange for a monthly charge. Idaho Power’s tariff prohibits mixed ownership of facilities beyond the point of delivery. As a result, in planning for an expansion of its manufacturing facility requiring additional electrical facilities, Jayco could either allow Idaho Power to install, own and operate additional electric equipment needed to serve the expansion at an additional monthly charge, or purchase the existing Idaho Power assets and the additional equipment needed. Jayco chose the latter option, with the understanding that it will operate and maintain the assets upon completion of the sale. The purchase price is $44,582. The telephonic public hearing will start at 10 am on Aug. 30. To testify or listen to the proceeding, please call (800) 920-7487 and enter the passcode 6674 832# when prompted. There will be no formal presentation during the hearing; instead, its purpose is to take testimony from customers and other interested members of the public. Anyone interested in testifying is encouraged to call in between 9:45 am and the 10 am start of the hearing.
