Notice of Rate Filing
Idaho Power Company has applied to the Oregon Public Utility
Commissioner for authorization to increase rates charged by it for electric
service in Oregon by $1,794,400 per year or 29.74%. Idaho Power Company
asked the Commissioner to allow part of the increase in an interim increase
to become effective thirty-one (31) days after filing of the Application, while
action is pending on the full increase.
The increase would raise the average residential customer's bill by
$3.88 per month or approximately 18.5%.
The reason for the increase is to offset rising costs and to attract
investment capital to build new service facilities required by rapid growth in
customers and electric load.
Idaho Power Company testimony and exhibits are available for
inspection in each district office serving customers in Oregon, as well as the
Company’s general office at 1220 Idaho Street, Boise, Idaho.
Additional information may be obtained about the filing by
contacting J. W. Coryell, Idaho Power Company, P.O. Box 70, Boise, Idaho
83721, telephone number 208-345-7210.
The time and place of any hearing regarding the Company’s
Application may be obtained by calling the Oregon Public Utility
Commissioner toll free, 800-452-9105, or mailing requests to Oregon Public
Utility Commissioner, Labor & Industries Building, Salem, Oregon 97310.

customers with general information as to the proposals made by the
Company and their affect upon customers. Calculations and statements
made in this notice will not be binding upon the Oregon Public Utility
Commissioner.
