______________
AVAILABLE: To owners of Qualifying Facilities in all territory served by the Company in
the state of Utah.
APPLICABLE: For power purchased from Qualifying Facilities located in the state of
Utah with a design capacity of up to 1,000 kW for a Cogeneration Facility or up to 3,000 kW for a

a written power sales contract with the Company. These prices are not applicable to Qualifying
Facilities whose power cannot be delivered to load without transmission upgrades as identified in
the system impact study associated with the Transmission Service Agreement request for the
Qualifying Facilities. In the event this occurs, the Company will provide prices to the transmission
constrained Qualifying Facilities which reflect the applicable transmission constraint. A cumulative
cap of 25,000 kW shall apply to new resources contracted under this schedule.

of useful energy (such as heat) which are used for industrial, commercial,
heating or cooling purposes through the sequential use of energy.
Qualifying Facilities
Qualifying cogeneration facilities or qualifying small power production
facilities within the meaning of section 201 and 210 of the Public Utility
