Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     Effective June 11, 2001, Idaho Power Company (IPC)
     transferred its wholesale electricity marketing
     operations ("Energy Marketing") to IDACORP Energy L.P.
     (IE).  IE is a Delaware limited partnership with
     IDACORP, Inc. as its sole general partner and IDACORP
     Energy Services Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of
     IDACORP, Inc. as its sole limited partner.  IPC is also
     a wholly owned subsidiary of IDACORP, Inc.

     Energy Marketing net assets transferred consist
     primarily of energy trading contracts and trading
     accounts receivable and accounts payable.  The results
     of operations of Energy Marketing were previously
     reported on IPC's Statements of Income as "Energy
     marketing activities - net."   The transfer will not
     affect IPC's regulated operations, its system
     reliability or its customers.

     In exchange for the transfer of Energy Marketing to IE,
     IPC received a partnership interest in IE, which was
     transferred to IDACORP in exchange for notes receivable
     from IDACORP totaling approximately $76 million.  This
     amount approximates the historical book value of the
     transferred Energy Marketing net assets on May 31, 2001
     of $21 million and retained intercompany tax
     liabilities of $55 million.  The notes receivable are
     due over periods of one to ten years and will bear
     interest at IDACORP's overall short-term borrowing rate
     which was 4.66% at May 31, 2001.

     Concurrent with the transfer of Energy Marketing, IE
     and IPC have entered into an Electricity Supply
     Management Services Agreement ("Agreement").   IPC has
     received initial approval of the Agreement from the
     Idaho Public Utilities Commission and the Federal
     Energy Regulatory Commission and is awaiting approval
     from the Oregon Public Utilities Commission.  Under the
     Agreement, IPC will continue to own, operate and
     maintain its electric generating equipment and
     transmission facilities ("System Resources") and be
     responsible for system reliability.  IE will manage and
     dispatch the System Resources to balance generation and
     load within the IPC operating area.


Item 7.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.

    (b)   Pro Forma Financial Information

          The following unaudited pro forma consolidated
          financial statements are filed with this report:

          Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income

            Three Months Ended March 31, 2001
            Year Ended December 31, 2000

          Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2001

     The Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet of IPC at
     March 31, 2001 reflects the financial position of IPC
     after giving effect to the transfer of the assets and
     liabilities, in exchange for notes receivable and
     assumes the transfer took place on March 31, 2001 at
     the historical book value on that date.  The Pro Forma
     Consolidated Statements of Income for the fiscal year
     ended December 31, 2000 and the three months ended
     March 31, 2001 assume that the transfer occurred at the
     beginning of the respective periods and that the notes
     receivable received by IPC equal the historical book
     value of the net assets on such dates.

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial
     statements presented herein are shown for illustrative
     purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the
     future financial position or future results of
     operations of IPC, or of the financial position or
     results of operations of IPC that would have actually
     occurred had the transaction been in effect as of the
     date or for the periods presented.  The unaudited pro
     forma consolidated financial statements should be read
     in conjunction with the historical financial statements
     and related notes of IPC.
