LATE FILED. On December 2, 2005, Kevin Lynch, Managing Director - Government Affairs, PacifiCorp, met with Peter Arth, advisor to Cmmr. Peevey, and Robert Lane, advisor to Cmmr. Bohn, in two separate meetings in San Francisco. Also present were Jeff Larsen, Manager - Revenue Requirement, and D.J. Smith, Sacramento Representative, for PacifiCorp. Lynch stated that the need for an increase in revenues stems from a variety of sources including higher power costs incurred since the last general rate case decision, as well as increases in benefits costs. Lynch also explained the anticipated timing of the proceeding leading to a decision in December 2006. Lynch and Larsen described the company's proposals for adoption of several post-test year rate making mechanisms. Finally, Lynch and Larsen discussed an issue arising with a subset of PacifiCorp's irrigation customers that involves the anticipated termination of a fifty-year rate contract in April 2006.
