Idaho Falls Power Division: 1. PacifiCorp’s Customer Requested Work Agreement for Work on West Broadway: Idaho Falls Power has identified a distribution tie line to complete on West Broadway that will provide connectivity between Westside, Milligan, and Rack Substations, which will enhance redundancy and add capacity to more heavily loaded circuits. The proposed route currently has a pole alignment owned and occupied by PacifiCorp (doing business as Rocky Mountain Power) to serve their customers in the area. Idaho Falls Power is requesting permission to joint use poles along this alignment. Idaho Falls Power is required to compensate PacifiCorp to accommodate the request. The cost estimate for this work is $43,203.00. Because both PacifiCorp and Idaho Falls Power will occupy positions on the same pole lines, it is highly impractical or impossible to separately bid, construct, and install each party’s facilities and equipment on the other’s lines or to separate the work into two separate construction contracts and mutually transfer ownership of such facilities once completed to the other. Additionally, Idaho Falls Power is not authorized to bid work on assets owned by PacifiCorp. The City Attorney has reviewed this request and the associated Customer Requested Work Agreement. In recognition of these circumstances, staff requests City Council authorize Mayor Casper to execute the Customer Requested Work Agreement. ACTION: To approve the Customer Requested Work Agreement with PacifiCorp for work on West Broadway, and give authorization for the Mayor to execute the necessary documents (or take other action deemed appropriate).
