February 21, 2019 I The Lovell Chronicle I 13
BY DAVID PECK
Taking to the road for
a pair of late-season con-
ference games, the Lovell
Bulldogs struggled a bit
in losses to Worland and
Lander over the weekend,
falling to Worland 51-33
Friday and to Lander 54-38
Saturday.
The losses leave the
Bulldogs, who had won
three in a row, 0-5 in the
3A West Conference and
7-13 overall with one regu-
lar season game remaining.
Coach Craig Lundberg
said the Bulldogs matched
Worland 8-8 in the first
quarter, but the home team
outscored Lovell 22-12 in
the second quarter to lead
by 10 and never trailed
again.
Lundberg said the
Bulldogs had prepared
for Worland sharpshoot-
ers like Rudy Sanford and
Luke Mortimer, but center
Andrew Edholm scored 14
points in the paint, which
the Bulldogs didn't expect.
"We focused way more
on their perimeter play-
ers, figuring we could con-
tain their post players, but
he really hurt us," Lund-
berg said of Edholm. "He
was able to turn and score
at will. We didn't really pre-
eare for that. It was a dif-
rence
maker."
If Edhold wasn't scor-
ing inside, the Warriors
were stealing the ball and
converting in transition.
"I felt like we beat our-
selves," Lundberg said.

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 a Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) to remove existing Wind turbines,
construct new wind turbines and update collector lines at its Foote
Creek wind energy site, as more fully described below:
RMP is a public utility, as defined in Wyo. Stat. 37-1-101(a)(vi)
(C), subject to the Commission's jurisdiction pursuant to Wyo. Stat.
37-2-112.
On February 5, 2019, the Company submitted an Application
together with testimony, and exhibits requesting the Commission
grant a CPCN to remove existing wind turbines, construct new wind
turbines and update collector lines at its Foote Creek wind energy
site.
Specifically, RMP requests the Commission grant a CPCN to
[i] construct approximately 12 new wind turbines and replace the
Company's 68 existing wind turbines; [ii] update existing 34.5 kilovolt
("kV') collector lines; and [iii] other project site upgrades including
a switchgear and controls enclosure and limited road realignments
necessary for access to the new turbine locations, at the existing
Foote Creek I Wind Energy Facilityl (the Projec0.
The preliminary estimated total cost for installation of the new
turbines is approximately $60.0 million, and the preliminary estimated
total cost for removing the 68 existing turbines is approximately
$4.0 million. These values may change as fnal construction plans
are developed and turbine supply and construction contracts are
executed.
The Company intends to finance the Project through its normal
internal and external sources of capital, including net cash flow from
operating activities, public and private debt offerings, the issuance
of commercial paper, the use of unsecured revolving credit facilities,
capital contributions, and other sources. The financial impact will not
impair the Company's ability to continue to provide safe and reliable
electricity service at reasonable rates. The Company is not requesting
ratemaking treatment at this time.
Construction of any necessary new roads, turbine foundations,
and upgrades to the existing collector system will begin in the
summer of 2019. Erection of the new turbines will begin as early as
site conditions allow in the spring of 2020 in order to avoid extreme
winter weather and high wind conditions. Construction of the new
turbines is estimated to be complete by October 2020 and commercial
operation of the new turbines before January 1, 2021.
The Company also requests authority to continue to recover any
remaining book balance of its ownership interest in the turbines that
will be replaced as included in the 2018 depreciation study in Docket
No. 20000-539-EA-18.
According to RMP, the Project is a time-limited opportunity that
provides benefits to customers by [i] increasing energy production
with larger, more efficient turbines; [ii] reducing operating costs;
and [iii] qualifying the new wind turbines for federal production tax
credits, which expire 10 years after a facility's commercial operation
date. To achieve the full production tax credit benefits, the Company
must complete the Project by the end of 2020.
This is not a complete description of RMP's Application.
Interested persons may inspect the entire Application at RMP's
Wyoming offices and at the Commission's offices in Cheyenne,
Wyoming, during regular business hours. The Application may also
be reviewed on line at http://www.pacificorp.com.
Anyone desiring to file a public comment, statement, protest,
intervention petition or request for a public hearing in this matter must
file with the Commission in writing on or before February 22, 2019.
Any intervention request filed with the Commission 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.
If you wish to intervene in this matter or request a public
hearing that you will attend, or you wish to file a public comment,
statement, or protest, 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,
