Notice #9806 published in the Pinedale Roundup on July 18, 25, August 1, 8, 2024

PUBLIC NOTICE

Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules, the Commission hereby gives notice of the Application of Rocky Mountain Power (RMP or the Company) for authority to update tariff Schedule 37, the Standard Rates for Avoided Cost Purchases of Power from Qualifying Facilities (Schedule 37), as more fully described below.

1. RMP is a division of PacifiCorp, an Oregon corporation, engaged in the business of supplying electric utility service to customers throughout its six-state service territory, including Wyoming. RMP is a public utility subject to the Commission's jurisdiction. Wyo. Stat. §§ 37-l- 101(a)(vi)(C) and 37-2-112.

2. On June 25, 2024, RMP filed its Application, requesting authority to update tariff Schedule 37, to revise the costs of power purchased from qualifying cogeneration and small power production facilities (QFs) under the Public Utilities Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA).

3. Schedule 37 rates were last approved by the Commission in Docket No. 20000- 545-ET-18. The proposed avoided cost rates are based on RMP’s most recent official forward price curve and the 2023 IRP Update, and result in a proposed avoided cost rate of $47.12 per MWh, an increase of $9.15 per MWh for base load QFs. Proposed avoided costs rates for wind, fixed solar, and tracking solar QFs are $20.32 per MWh, $37.60 per MWh, and $37.54 per MWh, respectively. The Application states the higher avoided costs are primarily due to higher power prices the first few years. The addition of renewable resources to the 2023 IRP Update is projected to help suppress power prices and avoided energy costs.

4. This is not a complete description of the Application. The complete Application is available at the Commission’s offices or online at https://dms.wyo.gov/external/publicusers.aspx (Enter Record No. 17614), or RMP’s website at www.pacificorp.com.

Public comments should be submitted to wpsc_comments@wyo.gov.

Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules, the Commission hereby gives notice of the Application of Rocky Mountain Power (RMP or the Company) for authority to implement a five-year commercial and industrial Demand Response Pilot Program and Recovery Mechanism, as more fully described below.

2. On July 8, 2024, RMP filed its Application requesting approval of a new Schedule 114 with the addition of the voluntary Commercial and Industrial Demand Response (C&I DR) Pilot Program, effective for the five-year period of May 1, 2025 to December 31, 2029. The Company proposes a $5.8 million (0.8% of base revenue) increase to Schedule 91 through a new 0.69% surcharge rate for Demand Response. The Company also proposed to add a Customer Efficiency Service Charge to the Schedule 191 balancing account to recover costs associated with the new C&I DR program, which are estimated at $20,088,750. RMP further proposes eliminating Schedule 30, the Interruptible Service Pilot Program due to lack of participation.

3. Per the Application, the initial C&I DR Pilot Program is intended to provide financial incentives to large commercial and industrial customers with curtailable or reduceable loads greater than 500 kilowatts under Category 3. The program may be utilized to provide peak load reduction, contingency reserves, frequency response, and other services to assist with managing the electric grid, and requires customer curtailment and real time response with limited to no advance notice to Company initiated events. Participating customers will receive annual compensation based on verifiable dispatchable loads adjusted by capacity factor and event participation percentage.

5. Anyone desiring to file a statement, intervention petition, protest, or request for a hearing must do so in writing, on or before August 16, 2024. Public comments should be submitted to wpsc_comments@wyo.gov. Any intervention request filed with the Commission shall set forth the grounds of the proposed intervention or request for hearing as well as the position and the interest of the petitioner in this proceeding. Please be sure to mention Docket No. 20000-670-ET-24 in all correspondence with the Commission.

Dated: July 16, 2024.

PROPOSED TEMPORARY TURBIDITY INCREASE IN PRAIRIE CREEK

The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ) has received a request from Wild Waters Restoration LLC, for a temporary increase in turbidity in Prairie Creek near Daniel, Wyoming. The temporary increase in turbidity is associated with continued channel restoration.

Activity in cold water streams like Prairie Creek is normally limited to a ten (10) NTU increase over background. Approval of this request would allow an exceedance of this limit for up to twenty (20) total working days, subject to monitoring and reporting. This activity will follow the procedures in Chapter 1, Section 23(c)(ii), of the WDEQ Water Quality Rules, which allow for temporary elevated levels of turbidity in certain circumstances. The applicant has applied for a U.S. Army Corps of Engineer 404 permit for the project.

Requests for information about the proposed temporary turbidity increase should be directed to Eric Hargett by email (eric.hargett@wyo.gov) or phone (307-777-6701). Written comments must be addressed to Eric Hargett, Wyoming DEQ/WQD, 200 W. 17th Street – 4TH floor, Cheyenne, WY, 82002, and be postmarked on or before 5:00 p.m. on August 8, 2024 to be considered.
