North Temple, Suite 210 Salt Lake City, UT 84116 james.owen@pacificorp.com April 25, 2025 Bill Rees, Manager VCP-DERR Utah Department of Environmental Quality PO Box 14480 Salt Lake City, UT 84114-4840 Re: PacifiCorp’s Co-Applicant Request, Power District Redevelopment Project Voluntary Cleanup Agreement (VCP ID No. VCP-C119) Dear Mr. Rees, As you know, PacifiCorp executed several agreements with Larry Harry Miller (“LHM”) for the purchase and development of PacifiCorp owned land on North Temple in Salt Lake City, UT. PacifiCorp executed a Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PSA”) with LHM on March 1, 2024, which obligated LHM to assume all remediation liability and responsibility for the investigation, characterization and remediation of the environmental conditions of each area, to the extent required by the environmental laws, including the development and implementation of a Remedial Action Plan(s) approved by the Utah Department of Environmental Quality (“UDEQ”) under Utah’s Voluntary Cleanup Program (“VCP”). The remediation liability as defined in the PSA includes at a minimum, and without limitation, undertaking responsibility for the implementation of existing, modifying, or entering into new agreements with the UDEQ, and any of its divisions with jurisdiction (including, but not limited to, UDEQ’s Division of Environmental Response and Remediation and UDEQ’s Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control) under the VCP, as outlined in Title 19, Chapter 8 of the Utah Code. LHM inspected and performed diligence on all land being transferred including investigations, studies, and analyses and was provided with all relevant site information and the existing VCP. The remediation obligation was transferred to LHM upon execution of the subsequent Master Development Agreement on September 25, 2024. Therefore, due to LHM’s responsibility and associated obligation with remediation at the property on North Temple, PacifiCorp requests that LHM be added as an Additional Applicant on the Power District Redevelopment Project (VCP ID No. VCP-C119) Voluntary Cleanup Agreement (“VCA”). Although PacifiCorp and LHM will be co-applicants on the VCA, PacifiCorp and LHM intend to work jointly on VCP Area B, and LHM lead on VCP Areas C and D upon approval of the application. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, James Owen VP, Environmental & Energy Resources 2 cc : Elizabeth Finley, Attorney Scott Wetzel, Environmental Remediation & Reclamation Manager Mike Jenson, Planning/Financial Analysis Manager Voluntary Cleanup Program Application – January 2022 7 UTAH DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY VOLUNTARY CLEANUP PROGRAM APPLICATION Program Application - Additional Applicants Form Additional Applicant Contact Person Title________________________________ Address City State Zip Code Phone Email Address Interest in the Property_______________________________________________________ Applicant is: ( ) Individual ( ) Business Is the Applicant currently registered to conduct business in the State of Utah? ☐Y ☐N Type of Business: ( ) Corporation ( ) LLC ( ) Sole Proprietorship ( ) General Partnership ( ) Limited Partnership Entity Number and State of Creation*: *Must include proof of current business registration Correctness of Information, Authorization to Sign and Financial Capability The undersigned affirms that the information contained in this VCP application is true and accurate to the best of their knowledge.
