BUSINESS THE ORGANIZATION The Company is an electric utility that conducts a retail electric utility business through Pacific Power and Utah Power, and engages in power production and sales on a wholesale basis under the name PacifiCorp. The Company formed Holdings in 1984 to hold the stock of the Company's principal subsidiaries and to facilitate the conduct of businesses not regulated as electric utilities. The Company's strategic business plan is to strengthen the scope and competitive position of its electric utility and telecommunications operations, to develop and expand its independent power production and cogeneration business, and to reduce the size and narrow the scope of its other diversified activities. Through Holdings, the Company indirectly owns approximately 87% of Pacific Telecom, a telecommunications company that provides local telephone service and access to the long distance network in Alaska, seven other western states and three midwestern states, intrastate and interstate long distance communication services in Alaska, and cellular mobile telephone services. Pacific Telecom is also involved in the operation and maintenance of and sale of capacity in a submarine fiber optic cable between the United States and Japan. Holdings has entered into an agreement and plan of merger with Pacific Telecom under which Holdings would acquire the 13% publicly held minority interest in Pacific Telecom for $30 per share. The merger requires approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Pacific Telecom not owned by Holdings (5.3 million shares), and is subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions customary to such transactions. Holdings owns 100% of PGC, which is engaged in the independent power production and cogeneration business. Holdings also owns 100% of PFS. Consistent with PacifiCorp's strategic plan, PFS has sold substantial portions of its loan, leasing, manufacturing and real estate investments and expects to continue its disposition activities over the next several years. PFS presently expects to retain only its tax-advantaged investments in leveraged lease assets (primarily aircraft) and low-income housing projects. Note 16 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, incorporated herein by reference under Item 8, contains information with respect to the revenue and income from operations contributed by each of the Company's industry segments for the past three years and the identifiable assets attributable to each segment at the end of each of those years; this information is incorporated herein by this reference. For the year ended December 31, 1994, 76% of PacifiCorp's revenues from operations were derived from Electric Operations, while Pacific Telecom contributed 20%. The Company's common stock (symbol PPW) is traded on the New York Stock Exchange and the common stock of Pacific Telecom, Inc. (symbol PTCM) is traded on the national over-the-counter market. The Company's $1.98 No Par Serial Preferred Stock, Series 1992, is traded on the New York Stock Exchange. ELECTRIC UTILITY OPERATIONS PacifiCorp conducts its retail electric utility operations as Pacific Power and Utah Power, and engages in wholesale electric transactions under the name PacifiCorp. Pacific Power and Utah Power provide electric service within their respective service territories. Power production, wholesale sales, fuel supply and administrative functions are managed on a coordinated basis. SERVICE AREA The Company serves 1.3 million retail customers in service territories aggregating about 153,000 square miles in portions of seven Western states: Utah, Oregon, Wyoming, Washington, Idaho, California and Montana. The service area contains diversified industrial and agricultural economies. 1 Principal industries include oil and gas extraction, lumber and wood products, paper and allied products, chemicals and primary metals and mining. Agricultural products include potatoes, hay, grain and livestock. The Company's distribution assets in northern Idaho were sold on December 31, 1994 following approval of the sale by the Idaho Public Utilities Commission. The decision to sell these assets was based on a number of competitive factors, including the likelihood of significant future price increases. The sale affects 9,800 residential, commercial and industrial customers. The geographical distribution of retail electric operating revenues for the year ended December 31, 1994 was Utah, 36%; Oregon, 31%; Wyoming, 15%; Washington, 8%; Idaho, 5%; California, 3%; and Montana, 2%. CUSTOMERS Electric utility revenues and energy sales, by class of customer, for the three years ended December 31, 1994 were as follows: 1994 1993 1992 -------------- -------------- -------------- Operating Revenues (Dollars in millions): Residential................. $ 724.9 28% $ 698.9 29% $ 649.8 28% Commercial.................. 570.4 22 543.9 22 526.9 23 Industrial.................. 726.3 28 696.2 28 695.6 30 Government, Municipal and Other...................... 30.7 1 29.8 1 29.9 1 -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- Total Retail Sales........ 2,052.3 79 1,968.8 80 1,902.2 82 Wholesale Sales-Firm........ 456.2 18 422.5 17 356.5 15 Wholesale Sales-Nonfirm... 76.5 3 77.3 3 71.3 3 -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- Total Energy Sales........ 2,585.0 100% 2,468.6 100% 2,330.0 100% ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Other Revenues (1).......... 62.8 38.3 32.4 -------- -------- -------- Total Operating Revenues................. $2,647.8 $2,506.9 $2,362.4 -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- Kilowatt-hours Sold (kWh in millions): Residential................. 12,127 21% 12,055 21% 11,230 21% Commercial.................. 10,645 18 10,085 18 9,733 18 Industrial.................. 20,306 34 19,671 34 19,942 36 Government, Municipal and Other...................... 623 1 602 1 606 1 -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- Total Retail Sales........ 43,701 74 42,413 74 41,511 76 Wholesale Sales-Firm........ 12,418 21 11,919 21 10,455 19 Wholesale Sales-Nonfirm..... 3,207 5 3,030 5 2,965 5 -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- Total kWh Sold............ 59,326 100% 57,362 100% 54,931 100% -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- -------- ---- <FN> ------------------------ (1) Includes miscellaneous and steam heating revenues. The Company's seven-state service territory has complementary seasonal load patterns. In the western sector, customer demand peaks in the winter months due to space heating requirements. In the eastern sector, customer demand peaks in the summer when irrigation and cooling systems are heavily used. Many factors affect per customer consumption of electricity. For residential customers, within a given year, weather conditions are the dominant cause of usage variations from normal seasonal patterns. However, the price of electricity is also considered a significant factor. During 1994, no single retail customer accounted for more than 1.5% of the Company's retail utility revenues and the 20 largest retail customers accounted for 12% of total retail electric revenues. 2 COMPETITION Although the Company operates as a regulated monopoly within its service territories, the Company encounters significant competition from both traditional and nontraditional energy suppliers. Competition varies in form and intensity and includes competition from both utility and nonutility energy suppliers for industrial customers, as well as for wholesale power sales to other utilities; self generation and cogeneration by industrial customers; and substitute energy forms for residential and commercial space heating, cooling and water heating. The Energy Policy Act of 1992 eased restrictions on independent power production and gave the FERC authority to mandate wholesale wheeling. The FERC is moving quickly to set the stage for competition. In a series of recently released orders and notices of proposed rulemaking, the FERC has heightened the level of industry discussion regarding topics such as transmission access and pricing, stranded investment, unbundling of services and comparability of service standards. In addition, several states have taken actions that may increase competition at the retail level. For example, the California Public Utilities Commission is conducting a rulemaking that would allow competition for all retail electric customers in California. The Michigan Public Service Commission has also ordered an experimental five-year program to evaluate competition for large retail customers in that state. The Company is formulating strategies to meet these new challenges and maintain its competitive position. The Company has restructured its electric operations into three internal business units -- generation, wholesale transactions and transmission, and retail sales. The Company is also seeking alternate forms of regulation that will include performance indices to give shareholders an appropriate opportunity to share in the rewards and risks of competition. The Company plans to focus on the development of new products and services, as well as the use of existing technologies in new ways. The Company has begun to offer power supply services to other utilities, including dispatch assistance, daily system load monitoring, backup power, power storage and power marketing, and services to retail customers that encourage efficient use of energy. In addition, the Company has recently opened a wholesale power marketing office in Nevada. Depending upon the success of these strategies, the Company will continue to adjust its competitive direction. For a discussion of accounting for the effects of regulation, see Note 1 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements incorporated herein by reference under Item 8. CURRENT POWER AND FUEL SUPPLY The Company's generating facilities are interconnected through its own transmission lines or by contract through the lines of others. Substantially all generating facilities and reservoirs located within the Pacific Northwest are managed on a coordinated basis to obtain maximum load carrying capability and efficiency. The Company's transmission system connects with other utilities in the Northwest having low-cost hydroelectric generation and with utilities in California and the Southwest having higher-cost, fossil-fuel generation. In periods of favorable hydro conditions, the Company utilizes lower-cost hydroelectric power to supply a greater portion of its load and attempts to sell its displaced higher-cost thermal generation to other utilities. In periods of less favorable hydro conditions, the Company seeks to sell excess thermal generation to utilities which are more dependent on hydroelectric generation than the Company. During the winter, the Company is able to purchase power from Southwest utilities, either for its own peak requirements or for resale to other Northwest utilities. During the summer, the Company is able to sell excess power to Southwest utilities to assist them in meeting their peak requirements. See "Wholesale Sales and Purchased Power." The Company owns or has interests in generating plants with an aggregate nameplate rating of 8,413.5 megawatts ("MW") and plant net capability of 7,983.1 MW. See "Item 2. Properties." With its present generating facilities, under average water conditions, the Company expects that approximately 7% of its energy requirements for 1995 will be supplied by its hydroelectric plants and 79% by 3 its thermal plants. The balance of 14% will be obtained under long-term purchase contracts, interchange and other purchase arrangements. Note 9 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, incorporated by reference under Item 8, contains additional details relating to the Company's purchase of power under long-term arrangements. The Company is purchasing 1,100 MW of firm capacity from the BPA pursuant to a recently executed long-term agreement that extends through August 1, 2011. The Company's current annual payment under this agreement is $77.2 million. The agreement provides for this amount to escalate at the rate of increase of BPA's average system cost. See "Regulation" for information concerning an increase in the BPA's rates. In January 1993, the Operating Committee for the Trojan Plant formally approved the permanent cessation of nuclear operations at the plant, which had been shut down since November 9, 1992 when a leak was detected in a steam generator tube. Portland General Electric Company is the operator of the Trojan Plant and owns a 67.5% share. The Eugene Water and Electric Board has assigned its 30% interest in the plant to the BPA, and the Company owns a 2.5% interest. Recovery of the Company's remaining investment in the Trojan Plant ($13.4 million at December 31, 1994) and estimated share of plant closure and decommissioning costs ($15.4 million at December 31, 1994) is subject to regulatory approval. Under the requirements of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 ("PURPA"), the Company purchases the output of qualifying facilities constructed and operated by entities that are not public utilities. During 1994, the Company purchased an average of 102 MW from qualifying facilities, compared to an average of 94 MW in 1993. The Company plans and manages its capacity and energy resources based on critical water conditions. Under critical or better water conditions in the Northwest, the Company believes that it has adequate reserve generation capacity for its requirements. The Company's historical total firm peak load (including both retail and firm wholesale sales) of 8,903 MW occurred on December 5, 1994, and historical on-system firm peak load of 7,623 MW occurred on December 21, 1990. WHOLESALE SALES AND PURCHASED POWER Wholesale sales continue to contribute significantly to total revenues. The Company's wholesale sales complement its retail business and enhance the efficient use of its generating capacity. In 1994, wholesale sales accounted for 26% of total energy sales and 21% of total energy revenues. In addition to its base of thermal and hydroelectric resources, the Company utilizes a mix of long-term and short-term firm power purchases and nonfirm purchases to meet its load obligations and to make sales to other utilities when prices are favorable. Firm power purchases supplied 9% of the Company's total energy requirements in 1994. Nonfirm purchases were 5% of total energy requirements in 1994 and slightly less than the total amount of energy sold by the Company on the nonfirm wholesale market during the year. PROPOSED ASSET ADDITIONS In accordance with the Company's long range integrated resource planning process, also referred to as "least-cost planning," the Company considers various future demand and supply options for providing customers with reliable, low-cost energy services. See "Projected Demand." In this connection, the Company also seeks opportunities to acquire existing assets from other utilities. In 1993, the Company signed a contract to purchase the entire output from the Hermiston Generating Project located near Hermiston, Oregon. This 474 megawatt natural gas cogeneration project is being developed by U.S. Generating Company ("U.S. Generating"). In November 1994, U.S. Generating commenced construction of the plant. The Company has entered into an agreement to purchase, subject to certain conditions, a 50% ownership interest in this project for approximately $156 million. The payment is also contingent upon commercial operation of the project, which is expected to occur in July 1996. 4 The Company has signed a contract to build a 50 MW cogeneration project at the James River paper mill in Camas, Washington. The steam royalty agreement extends for 20 years. The facility will use steam produced for the paper making process to drive an electric turbine generator and is expected to begin operating in late 1995. The Company plans to participate in two wind generation projects, a 70 MW project in Wyoming and a 31 MW project in Washington, both of which are to be built by Kenetech Windpower and scheduled to begin producing power in 1996. The Company plans to own 53.2%, or about 38 MW of the Wyoming project, and 60%, or about 19 MW, of the Washington project. The terms of the Company's 1991 transaction with Arizona Public Service Company ("APS") call for the construction by APS of 150 MW of combustion turbines to be owned by the Company. The Company will pay a $20 million fee in January 1997 for rights and services provided by APS. Commercial operation dates for the turbines have not been established. PROJECTED DEMAND Annual increases in retail kilowatt-hour sales for the Company have averaged 2% since 1989. The Company has benefited from improved economic conditions in portions of its service territory and the Company's commitment to price stability. Substantial price reductions in many of the Company's service territories have helped sustain sales volume growth. In connection with its long-range integrated resource planning process, which includes load growth projections for its service areas, the Company considered a range of average annual growth in energy requirements from 0.3% to 3.8% over a 20-year horizon. For the period 1995 to 1999, the average annual growth is expected to be about 2%. Actual growth in the future will be determined by economic and demographic growth, competition and the effectiveness of energy efficiency programs. The Company's base of existing resources, in combination with actions outlined in its integrated resource plan, are expected to be sufficient to meet the above range of possible load growth conditions throughout the 1990s. Actions outlined in the integrated resource plan include energy efficiency by customers (demand-side management), efficiency improvements to existing generation, transmission and distribution systems, and investments in cogeneration, single cycle and combined cycle combustion turbines and in renewable resources. See "Proposed Asset Additions." The Company intends to use the results of its integrated resource planning process as a framework to evaluate opportunities to acquire surplus generating facilities from other utilities. Demand-side management is an element of the Company's diversified portfolio of resources identified in its integrated plan. The use of an energy service charge concept in the Company's demand-side resource programs is intended to allow these resources to be acquired at competitive costs. Under the energy service charge program, the customers receiving the benefits of energy efficiency measures are expected to pay most of the related costs. The Company expended an aggregate of $44 million for demand-side resources in 1994, while acquiring 18.7 average MW of energy efficiency. ENVIRONMENT In addition to land use restrictions and other controls by local governments, the Company is subject to regulation by federal, state and local authorities pursuant to legislation designed to protect and enhance the quality of the environment, including air and water quality, remediation of contamination, waste disposal and protection of endangered species. Environmental regulation has not only increased the cost of providing electric service, it has adversely affected various industrial groups, thereby negatively impacting kWh sales by the Company to certain customers in those industries. However, the Company has been able to manage these additional costs to date without having to pass the costs directly to its customers in the form of higher rates. The Company's ability to avoid such price increases in the future is uncertain. 5 AIR QUALITY. The Company's operations are subject to regulation under the Federal Clean Air Act, as enforced by the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") and various state agencies. The Company believes that all of the coal-fired generating plants operated by it comply in all material respects with current emission standards. Some of the plants have recently modified their fuel supply systems or processes in order to meet those standards. The Company believes that it can continue to operate its plants at or below currently mandated emission rates without incurring costs that would have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations. In August 1993, the Sierra Club filed an action against the owners of the Hayden Generating Station alleging violations of state and federal air quality regulations at the station since 1988. In April 1992, the Company acquired interests in two units of the station, which is operated by Public Service Company of Colorado. Among other things, the complaint alleges violations of opacity emission standards and seeks civil monetary penalties and an injunction. Various federal and state agencies have raised concerns with respect to perceived visibility degradation in areas where the Company owns coal-fired generating plants. Two visibility studies have been completed within the Company's service territory, one in Washington and the other in the Canyonlands area of Utah. To date, no additional emission control requirements have resulted from these studies. The Company is participating in additional visibility studies in western Wyoming, Colorado and the Grand Canyon area. The findings of these studies may have a significant impact on operations at a number of generating plants owned by the Company or in which the Company has an ownership interest. The 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments require an overall reduction in the emission of sulfur dioxide ("SO(2)") and nitrogen oxides ("NO(x)") from utility generating plants, and establish a system of marketable SO(2) emission allowances. The Company's generating plants burn low-sulfur coal and the majority of the Company's plants representing a majority of its installed capacity have been equipped with SO(2) emission controls. However, the new law will result in additional operating costs because the Company will be required to maintain and manage SO(2) emission levels, install approximately $12 million of emission monitoring equipment, and reduce NO(x) emissions at some of its generating plants. The SO(2) emission allowances awarded to the Company are sufficient to enable the Company to meet its current needs and expansion plans and to enable the Company to take advantage of opportunities to sell surplus allowances to other utilities. In 1994, the Company recorded the sales of a portion of its surplus allowances for $9 million. The Company may have approximately 20,000 to 25,000 tons of surplus SO(2) emission allowances available for sale each year until 2024. In February 1995, the Southwest Air Pollution Control Authority ("SWAPCA") published a preliminary determination of the SO(2) emission limitations to be imposed on the Centralia steam electric generating plant through the application of Reasonably Available Control Technology ("RACT") as mandated by the state of Washington's Clean Air Act. The RACT determination considers technical feasibility, economic impact and other issues in setting an emissions level for the plant. Such limitations could be achieved through the use of low-sulfur coal from sources other than the Centralia mine, or by flue gas desulfurization systems on a portion of the flue gasses, or a combination of those or other means, certain of which could require capital expenditures. The Company and SWAPCA are discussing the appropriate emission level to be imposed at the plant. Emissions from coal-fired generating plants include carbon dioxide (CO(2)). Carbon dioxide emissions are not currently subject to regulation, but have been the subject of increasing public concern. In 1994, the Company joined with 37 other investor-owned utilities to sign a voluntary agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy addressing CO(2) emissions. The Company's specific agreement includes a commitment to reduce its 1990 CO(2) emissions rate by 10% and to spend $1 million on offset projects by the year 2000. The Company is testing various techniques of offsetting CO(2) emissions to determine their feasibility and cost effectiveness. 6 ENDANGERED SPECIES. Enforcement of the Endangered Species Act ("ESA") and other laws by the National Marine Fisheries Service ("NMFS") and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ("FWS") is affecting the Company's operations in a number of areas. Environmental regulation under the ESA has resulted in reduced availability of timber for use by the Company's customers in the wood products industry, and long-range timber management plans for timberlands managed by federal and state agencies are expected to further reduce the volume of timber available for processing. In addition, the listing of the Northern Spotted Owl and other species under the ESA is expected to result in further restrictions on timber harvesting from both public and private timber lands. These actions have adversely affected energy sales to the Company's customers in the wood products industry. Protection of habitat of endangered and threatened species will make it more difficult to site and construct new transmission and distribution facilities and generating plants, and is also a consideration in connection with the relicensing of existing hydroelectric generating projects. NMFS is responsible for ESA actions regarding marine fish and certain marine mammals. As a result of recent decisions with respect to the listing of species of Columbia River salmon as endangered or threatened, NMFS is involved in recovery measure planning that could result in changes in federal hydrosystem operations and flows. These changes could affect the availability and cost of power from the BPA. Pending and threatened lawsuits under the ESA and the Northwest Power Act could result in further restrictions on the federal hydropower system and affect regional power supplies and costs. The FWS has identified the Lost River sucker, the shortnose sucker, and the bald eagle as species listed under the ESA that may be affected by operations of the Klamath Project, a hydroelectric project in southern Oregon and Northern California. Waterflows through the Klamath Project are directed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation during periods of critically low flows. Because of recent drought conditions, flows past the Link River Dam have been substantially reduced, which has contributed to a reduction in hydroelectric generation at certain of the Company's downstream hydroelectric plants. The Company anticipates that other fish species will be nominated for ESA listings, and such actions could further impact the Company's hydroelectric resources. The Company is continuing to monitor and participate in regional ESA activities to minimize the generation and economic impacts resulting from such actions. It is unknown at this time what impact, if any, these actions will have on the Company's operations. ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS. A number of studies have examined the possibility of adverse health effects from electromagnetic fields ("EMF"), without conclusive results. Certain states and cities have enacted regulations to limit the strength of magnetic fields at the edge of transmission line rights-of-way; however, other than California, none of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates has adopted formal rules or programs with respect to EMF or EMF considerations in the siting of electric facilities. In California, the Public Utilities Commission has issued an interim order requiring utilities to implement no cost or low-cost mitigation measures in the certification process for their facilities. The Company expects that public concerns about EMF will make it more difficult to site and construct new power lines and substations in the future. It is uncertain whether the Company's operations may be adversely affected in other ways as a result of EMF concerns. ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANUPS. Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and comparable state statutes, entities that disposed of or arranged for the disposal of hazardous substances, and the owners and operators of the affected property, may be liable for the remediation of contaminated sites. The Company has been identified as a potentially responsible party in connection with a number of cleanup sites to which it may have sent transformers containing polychlorinated biphenyls ("PCBs"), used oil and other hazardous wastes. In addition, certain of the Company's own properties have been identified as requiring remediation. The Company is conducting 7 or participating in investigations and remedial actions with respect to those sites; however, the costs associated with those actions are not expected to be material to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. WATER QUALITY. The Clean Water Act requires permits for the discharge of certain pollutants into the waters of the United States, including storm water runoff. Under this Act, the EPA has issued effluent limitation guidelines, pretreatment standards and new source performance standards for the control of certain pollutants; and individual states may impose still more stringent limitations. The Company currently has the required discharge permits for its facilities, except for a dredging permit with respect to Bear Lake in Idaho which is expected to involve a contested hearing. Failure to obtain that permit could adversely affect certain of the Company's hydroelectric facilities on the Bear River. Additional regulations may be promulgated in the future, but the Company is unable to predict the extent to which such additional regulations will affect its operations and capital expenditure requirements. HAZARDOUS WASTES. The federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") has established a national program for the handling, treatment, recycling, storage and disposal of hazardous wastes. To date, RCRA has not had a material impact on the Company's operations or expenditures; however, the EPA and the Congress are studying the impacts of high volume, low toxicity utility wastes, such as fly ash, which are now exempt from RCRA regulations. If this exception were to be withdrawn, the Company may be faced with considerable expense to change its disposal practices and modify its existing disposal facilities. MISCELLANEOUS. In cooperation with Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") and the FWS, the Company has installed a system to prevent birds from landing in the flue gas desulfurization waste pond at the Naughton Plant pond. The Company is studying possible methods of preventing bird landings on a similar pond at the Jim Bridger plant. REGULATION The Company is subject to the jurisdiction of public utility regulatory authorities of each of the states in which it conducts retail electric operations as to prices, services, accounting, issuance of securities and other matters. The Company is a "licensee" and a "public utility" as those terms are used in the Federal Power Act and is, therefore, subject to regulation by the FERC as to accounting policies and practices, certain prices and other matters. Most of the Company's hydroelectric plants are licensed as major projects under the Federal Power Act and certain of these projects are licensed under the Oregon Hydroelectric Act. The Company is currently in the process of relicensing certain of its hydroelectric projects under the Federal Power Act and will be seeking licenses for other projects in the future. The licenses of 11 of the Company's hydroelectric projects expire within the next 10 years. These projects represent 458 MW, or 43%, of the Company's hydroelectric generating capacity. In the new licenses, the FERC is expected to impose conditions designed to address the impact of the projects on fish and other environmental concerns. See "Environment; Endangered Species." The Company is unable to predict the impact of imposition of such conditions, but capital expenditures and operating costs are expected to increase in future periods. In addition, the Company may refuse relicenses for certain projects if the terms of renewal make the projects uneconomical to operate. Prices charged to retail customers are subject to regulation in each of the states the Company serves. Interstate sales of electricity at wholesale prices and interstate wheeling rates are regulated by the FERC. Except in Montana, where the commission is elected, commissioners are appointed by the individual state's governor for varying terms. While regulation varies from state to state, industry analysts consider the overall quality of the regulatory commissions having jurisdiction over the Company to be about average in their treatment of the rate applications of utilities. BPA plans to increase its power and wheeling rates effective in late 1995 or early 1996. The Company's firm capacity purchase and wheeling expenses will be affected by this increase. In addition, 8 any increase in the BPA's rates will reduce the exchange benefits directly received by the Company's residential and small farm customers. The Company intends to request price increases that will allow it to recover the loss of exchange benefits. CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM The following table shows actual construction costs for 1994 and the Company's estimated construction costs for 1995 through 1997, including costs of acquiring demand-side resources. The estimates of construction costs for 1995 through 1997 are subject to continuing review and the Company makes appropriate revisions. These estimates do not include expected expenditures for purchases of generating assets. See "Proposed Asset Additions" for information concerning recent and proposed additions to the Company's generating assets.

Alascom, Inc., Pacific Telecom's long distance telephone subsidiary, provides Alaska with both intrastate and interstate long distance communication services. Pacific Telecom's sale of Alascom, Inc. to AT&T Corp. is pending. Pacific Telecom has acquired and is developing, operating and managing cellular mobile telephone services in seven states. Pacific Telecom is also involved in the operation and maintenance of and sale of capacity in a submarine fiber optic cable between the United States and Japan. For further information with respect to the business of Pacific Telecom and the pending merger under which Holdings would acquire the minority interest in Pacific Telecom, see "Item 1. Business" of the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Pacific Telecom, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 1994; such information is incorporated herein by this reference. See "Item 3. Legal Proceedings" for a discussion of certain litigation affecting Pacific Telecom. OTHER Consistent with PacifiCorp's strategic plan, PFS plans to continue to sell portions of its loan, leasing and real estate investments over the next several years. PFS expects to retain only its tax-advantaged investments in leveraged lease assets (primarily aircraft) and low-income housing projects. For further information with respect to the business of PFS, see "Item 1. Business" of the Annual Report on Form 10-K of PacifiCorp Financial Services, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 1994; such information is incorporated herein by this reference. During 1994, the Company's wholly owned independent power production and cogeneration business, PGC, through its subsidiaries, began construction of a 240 MW cogeneration facility in California. When completed, the facility will be operated by PGC and PGC will own approximately 46% of the completed project. PGC plans to continue to pursue opportunities in the U.S. market and has begun a preliminary investigation of opportunities in the international markets. 9 EMPLOYEES PacifiCorp and its subsidiaries had 12,845 employees on December 31, 1994. Of these employees, 9,281 were employed by PacifiCorp and its mining affiliates, 2,762 were employed by Pacific Telecom and 802 were employed by PFS, PGC and other subsidiaries. Approximately 64% of the employees of PacifiCorp and its mining affiliates are covered by union contracts, principally with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, the Utility Workers Union of America and the United Mine Workers of America. For information with respect to the employees of Pacific Telecom and PFS, see "Item 1. Business" of the Annual Reports on Form 10-K of Pacific Telecom, Inc. and PacifiCorp Financial Services, Inc., for the year ended December 31, 1994; such information is incorporated herein by this reference. In the Company's judgment, employee relations are satisfactory. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company owns 52 hydroelectric generating plants and has an interest in one additional plant, with an aggregate nameplate rating of 1,079.2 MW and plant net capability of 1,124.5 MW. It also owns or has interests in 15 thermal-electric generating plants with an aggregate nameplate rating of 7,334.3 MW and plant capability of 6,858.6 MW.

NOTE: Hydroelectric project locations are stated by locality and river watershed. The Company's generating facilities are interconnected through its own transmission lines or by contract through the lines of others. Substantially all generating facilities and reservoirs located within the Pacific Northwest region are managed on a coordinated basis to obtain maximum load carrying capability and efficiency. Portions of the Company's transmission and distribution systems are located, by franchise or permit, upon public lands, roads and streets and, by easement or license, upon the lands of others. Substantially all of the Company's electric utility plants are subject to the liens of the Company's Mortgages and Deeds of Trust. The following table describes the Company's recoverable coal reserves as of December 31, 1994. All coal reserves are dedicated to nearby Company operated generating plants. Recoverability by surface mining methods typically ranges between 90% and 95%. Recoverability by underground mining techniques ranges from 50% to 70%. The Company considers that the respective reserves assigned to the Centralia, Craig, Dave Johnston, Huntington, Hunter and Jim Bridger plants, together with coal available under both long-term and short-term contracts with external suppliers, will be sufficient to provide these plants with fuel that meets the Clean Air Act standards effective in 1995, for their current economically useful lives. The sulfur content of the reserves ranges from 0.43% to 0.84% and the BTU value per pound of the reserves ranges from 7,600 to 11,400. Reserve estimates are subject to adjustment as a result of the development of additional data, new mining technology and changes in regulation and economic factors affecting the utilization of such reserves.

Huntington and Hunter 141(1)(3) Rock Springs, Wyoming......... Jim Bridger 138(4) <FN> ------------------------ (1) These reserves are mined by subsidiaries of the Company. 11 (2) These reserves are leased and mined by Trapper Mining Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Williams Fork Company, in which the Company owns approximately 20% of the outstanding stock. (3) These reserves are in underground mines. (4) These reserves are leased and mined by Bridger Coal Company, a joint venture between Pacific Minerals, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, and a subsidiary of Idaho Power Company. Pacific Minerals, Inc. has a two-thirds interest in the joint venture. Most of the Company's coal reserves are held pursuant to leases from the federal government through the BLM and from certain states and private parties. The leases generally have multi-year terms that may be renewed or extended and require payment of rentals and royalties. In addition, federal and state regulations require that comprehensive environmental protection and reclamation standards be met during the course of mining operations and upon completion of mining activities. In 1994, the Company expended $3.6 million of reclamation costs and accrued $5.7 million of estimated final mining reclamation costs. Final mine reclamation funds have been established with respect to certain of the Company's mining properties. At December 31, 1994, the Company's pro rata portion of these reclamation funds totaled $26 million and the Company had an accrued reclamation liability of $104 million at December 31, 1994. For a description of the properties of Pacific Telecom and PFS, see "Item 1. Business" and "Item 2. Properties" of the Annual Reports on Form 10-K of Pacific Telecom, Inc. and PacifiCorp Financial Services, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 1994; such information is incorporated herein by this reference. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal claims, actions and complaints, certain of which are described below. Although it is impossible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company and its subsidiaries will ultimately be successful in its legal proceedings or, if not, what the impact might be, management believes that disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations. In November 1991, former shareholders of American Network, Inc. ("AmNet") filed a third amended complaint against Pacific Telecom and others, suing individually and also derivatively on behalf of AmNet for damages allegedly arising out of the acquisition of AmNet by United States Transmission Systems, Inc. ("USTS"), a subsidiary of ITT Corporation, in 1988 and various alleged actions in connection with certain transactions that occurred in 1984 and 1986 between AmNet or its subsidiaries and Pacific Telecom or between AmNet and other parties. (LOEWEN, ET AL. V. GALLIGAN, ET AL., Circuit Court for the State of Oregon, County of Multnomah; United States District Court, District of Oregon.) At the time of the acquisition by USTS, Pacific Telecom owned 36.4% of the common shares of AmNet. On September 14, 1994, the Oregon Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's grant of summary judgment to defendants. Plaintiffs' petition for review of that decision by the Oregon Supreme Court was denied on December 27, 1994. A class action complaint was filed against Equitec Financial Group, Inc. ("Equitec"), certain of its subsidiaries and former directors and officers, as well as the Company, PacifiCorp Holdings and PacifiCorp Financial Services. (DUVAL, ET AL. V. GLEASON, ET AL., Alameda County Superior Court, filed August 16, 1989). PacifiCorp Holdings acquired an interest in Equitec in December 1987 and owns approximately 49% of Equitec's stock. The complaint, as amended, was filed on behalf of the limited partners in twelve real estate limited partnerships sponsored by Equitec during the 1980-1988 period, and alleges fraud and breach of fiduciary duty by the defendants in connection with the public offering 12 and management of the real estate partnerships. Plaintiffs seek an unspecified amount of compensatory and punitive damages, an accounting of transactions entered into by the partnerships and rescission of the purchase of their partnership interests. The PacifiCorp defendants filed a demurrer to the amended complaint, which was allowed with prejudice and without further leave to amend. The plaintiffs in the DUVAL case have also filed two actions in the federal district court for the Northern District of California alleging fraud under the federal securities laws in connection with the sale of interests in the same partnerships. (SPENCER, ET AL. V. GLEASON, ET AL. and DUVAL, ET AL. V. GLEASON, ET AL., United States District Court for the Northern District of California.) The PacifiCorp defendants filed a motion to dismiss the federal actions, which has been held in abeyance pending settlement discussions. The parties have reached a tentative settlement of the federal and state actions subject to court approval. ITEM 4.
