PUBLIC
NOTICE
Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules and Regulations, notice is hereby given of the Application of Rocky Mountain Power (RMP or the Company) requesting authority to decrease rates, recover deferred Net Power Costs (NPC) under Tariff Schedule 95; and to increase rates under Tariff Schedule 93, Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) emission allowances, 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 under certificates of public convenience and necessity issued by the Commission. RMP is a public utility subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction. Wyo. Stat. §§ 37-1-101(a)(vi)(C) and 37-2-112.
2. On April 15, 2026, RMP filed an Application requesting authority to revise rates pursuant to two different rate schedules. The Company proposes to recover approximately $25.8 million of deferred NPC and under Tariff Schedule 95, its Energy Cost Adjustment Mechanism (ECAM), over a 12 month period. The Company also proposes to recover approximately $0.15 million from customers to reflect the Revenue Adjustment Mechanism (RRA) forecast and true-up of REC and SO2 revenues under its Tariff Schedule 93. The Company requests interim approval of the proposed rates effective for usage on and after July 1, 2026, subject to further review.
3. RMP states the Schedule 95 deferred NPC is the result of: increased coal, wheeling, and other expenses; decreased wholesale sales revenues; and reduced purchase power and natural gas expenses. The following table summarizes the proposed price changes by tariff rate schedule. Within each rate schedule, the percentage change to individual customers may be higher or lower than the average due to rate design, customer load factors, and usage characteristics. The combined effect of the 2026 RRA and ECAM in this Application represents an overall proposed rate decrease of approximately $51.1 million or 6.1 percent.

PUBLIC
NOTICE
Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules and Regulations, notice is hereby given of the Application of Rocky Mountain Power (RMP or the Company) for authority to sell certain Washington based assets (Washington Project or Project) and for approval of a deferred accounting order, 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 under certificates of public convenience and necessity issued by the Commission. RMP is a public utility subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction. Wyo. Stat. §§37-1-101(a)(vi)(C) and 37-2-112.
2. On April 3, 2026, the Company filed its Application, pursuant to Commission Rule Chapter 3, Section 21(f), for authority to sell its Washington based generation, distribution, and transmission assets, along with its Washington service area to Gem Sub LLC (Gem), a Washington affiliate of Portland General Electric Company (PGE) for $1.9 billion. The Project includes three generation assets: the 477 Megawatt (MW) Chehalis turbine power plant, the 94 MW Goodnoe Hills Wind Farm, and the 234 MW Marengo I and II Wind Farms. Included transmission assets consist of 393 miles of transmission lines, 10 substations (two will be jointly owned), and approximately 6,220 structures. Included distribution assets consist of 4,100 miles of distribution lines, 34 substations, and approximately 100,480 poles.
3. RMP states selling the Project will aid the Company in managing risks associated with operating an expansive multi-state system, navigating discrete energy policies, and improving its financial position and credit rating to make the capital investments necessary for safe and reliable service. RMP anticipates an increase in system-wide capacity, and improved system load and resource balance because of the transaction. The Washington Project will sell approximately 2,730 square miles of service territory encompassing roughly 35 communities.
4. Gem intends to continue operations and using the resources in the same manner and will be assuming RMP’s obligation to serve Washinton customers. Overall, the Project has 805 MW of generation capacity, a de minimis amount of PacifiCorp’s overall 15,452 MW portfolio. Per the Application, the transaction will not increase rates for Wyoming customers and will not impact any other public utility. Completion of the transaction requires RMP, PGE, and Gem obtain all necessary state and federal regulatory approvals and meet all requirements.
5. RMP also requested approval of a deferred accounting order, pursuant to Wyoming Statute §§ 37-2-112 and 37-2-115, authorizing the Company to record a regulatory liability associated with the Wyoming allocated goodwill value from the Project, which RMP proposes funding via an annual rate credit of $7.2 million to share with customers. If approved the rate credits will be recorded in Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Account 254.
6. This is not a complete description of the Application. You may review the Application at RMP’s Wyoming offices or at the Commission’s office in Cheyenne, or online at https://dms.wyo.gov/external/publicusers.aspx (Enter Record No. 18110).
7. Anyone desiring to file a public comment, statement, intervention petition, protest or request for a public hearing in this matter must file with the Commission in writing on or before May 13, 2026. Petitions 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 mention Docket No. 20000-706-EA-26 in your communications.
8. If you wish to intervene in this matter and you require reasonable accommodation for a disability, please contact the Commission at (307) 777-7427, or write to the Commission at 2515 Warren Avenue, Suite 300, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82002.
