Item 8.01 Other Events.

On October 21, 2016, Idaho Power Company ("Idaho Power") filed an application with the Idaho Public Utilities Commission ("IPUC") requesting authorization to (a) accelerate depreciation for the North Valmy coal-fired power plant, to allow the plant to be fully depreciated by December 31, 2025, (b) establish a balancing account to track the incremental costs and benefits associated with the accelerated depreciation date, and (c) adjust customer rates to recover the associated incremental annual levelized revenue requirement of $28.5 million (the "Accelerated Depreciation Schedule"). On the same date, Idaho Power also filed an application with the IPUC requesting approval to institute revised depreciation rates for Idaho Power's electric plant-in-service and adjust Idaho jurisdictional base rates by $6.7 million to reflect the revised depreciation rates ("Revised Depreciation Rates").

The Accelerated Depreciation Schedule and Revised Depreciation Rates will not be effective unless and until approved by order of the IPUC.
