INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
____________________________

Utah Power & Light Company
Employee Savings and Stock Purchase 
Plan of PacifiCorp:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the Utah Power & Light Company Employee Savings and Stock Purchase
Plan of PacifiCorp (the Plan) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules, listed in
the table of contents, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis
and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information by fund in the statements
of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net
assets available for benefits is presented for the purpose of additional
analysis rather than to present the net assets available for benefits and
changes in the net assets available for benefits of the individual funds.  The
supplemental schedules and supplemental information by fund are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  
<PAGE>4
Such supplemental schedules and supplemental information by fund have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken
as a whole.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1.  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

      General
      _______

      The Utah Power & Light Company Employee Savings and Stock Purchase Plan
of PacifiCorp (the Plan)  is a qualified defined contribution plan under
Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code and is exempt from Federal income
taxes. The employee's tax liability is deferred until the employee receives
distributions from the Plan.  This deferral applies to the income of the Plan,
the contributions of PacifiCorp (the Company) and the before-tax contributions
of the employee.  The Plan complies with the requirements of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

      The Plan permits participants, at their election, to make supplemental,
tax-deferred contributions to one or more of the separate investment funds as
permitted by Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.  Each participant's
annual combined tax-deferred contributions to the Plan may not exceed $9,500
for 1996 and $9,240 for 1995, as permitted by the Internal Revenue Service
regulations. The Plan also permits participants to borrow from their before-
tax employee contribution accounts and the Company matching portion of the
participant's before-tax accounts.  The Plan Committee approves all loans and
determines related interest rates.  Payroll deductions are required to repay
the loans which must be repaid within five years, except in the case of loans
used to acquire or construct a principal residence, which loans may be repaid
over a period not to exceed twenty years.  Loans must be repaid in full at the
time of retirement or termination.  

      The Plan has received determination letters from the Internal Revenue
Service stating the Plan is a qualified employee benefit plan.  The date of
the most recent of such letters is February 25, 1994.
<PAGE>10
1.    DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (Continued)


      The cost of administration of the Plan is paid by both the Plan and the
Company.


      Eligibility
      ___________

      All bargaining unit Company employees represented by IBEW Local 57 who
complete one year of service (defined as a 12-month period within which an
employee has completed not less than 1,000 hours of service) may participate
in the Plan.  For employees who are transferred to IBEW Local 57, prior
service with PacifiCorp or any other PacifiCorp division, subsidiary, or
affiliate shall be included for determining eligibility for participation.  As
of December 31, 1996 and 1995, there were 2,120 and 2,252 employees and 403
and 425 former employees participating in the Plan for a total of 2,523 and
2,677, respectively. 

      Utah Power bargaining unit employees who transfer from IBEW Local 57 to
other PacifiCorp bargaining units or non-bargaining unit positions will have
their accounts in the Plan transferred to the PacifiCorp K Plus Employee
Savings and Stock Ownership Plan (the PacifiCorp K Plus Plan).  During the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 there were 10 and 14 employees
respectively who transferred to the PacifiCorp K Plus Plan.

1.   DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (Continued)

      Investment Policy
      _________________

      Under provisions of the Plan, the Basic Fund and Fund I are invested in
common stock of PacifiCorp, Fund II is invested in the Columbia Trust Company
Domestic Common Stock Investment Fund, Fund III is invested in stable asset
investment contracts, Fund IV is invested in the Columbia Trust Company
Domestic Balanced Investment Fund, and the Loan Fund is invested in loans to
participants.

      Funding
      _______

      The source of funding for the basic portion of the Plan is employee
contributions from 1% to 6% of employees' regular earnings and the Company
matching contributions which are equal to 85% of employee contributions.

      The source of funding for the supplemental portion of the Plan is
additional employee contributions from 1% to 10% of employees' regular
earnings.

      The Company collects all employee contributions and transmits them,
together with the Company contributions, to the Trustee.  All such
contributions and all other cash and stock received under the Plan by the
Trustee are held in the trust for the exclusive benefit of the Plan
participants.


      Vesting
      _______

      All contributions and earnings vest immediately.

      Termination Priorities
      ______________________

      On July 1, 1997, the Plan will be merged into the PacifiCorp K Plus
Plan.  The trust shall continue until all of the assets in the trust have been
transferred to the trust of the K Plus Plan.  No part of the vested trust
assets is to revert to or be recovered by the Company or be used for, or
diverted to, any purpose other than for the exclusive benefit of participants
and their beneficiaries.
<PAGE>12
2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Basis of Presentation
      _____________________

      The Plan financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.  The accounting practices and policies are
consistent with those prescribed or permitted by the Department of Labor.

      Investments
      ___________

      The investment in the Company's common stock (Basic and Fund I) is
stated at fair value based on published market quotations at year end. 
Dividends from the common stock are accrued on the date the shares trade
without dividend rights.

      The investment in Fund II is stated at fair value based on the number of
units of the Columbia Trust Company Domestic Common Stock Investment Fund held
by the Plan and the fair value of such units at year end.  The unit value is
adjusted to reflect the value of dividends received on shares of stock held by
the fund.

      The investment in Fund III is placed in stable asset investment
contracts and is stated at cost which approximates fair value.

      The investment in Fund IV is comprised of common stocks, bonds, and
money market investments, and is stated at fair value based on the number of
units of the Columbia Trust Company Domestic Balanced Investment Fund held by
the Plan and the fair value of such units at year end.  The unit value is
adjusted to reflect the value of dividends received on shares of stock held by
the fund.

      The investment in loans to participants (Loan Fund) is stated at the
uncollected principal balances of the loans which approximates fair value.

      Changes in fair value of investments during each year are shown as net
appreciation or (depreciation) in fair value of investments in the statements
of changes in net assets available for benefits.  Investment transactions are
recorded on a trade date basis.
<PAGE>13
2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)      

      Generally accepted accounting principles provide that liabilities for
amounts payable to participants who have elected to withdraw from the Plan
should not be recorded until paid.  Accordingly, the liability due to
participating employees who have elected to withdraw are not accrued (see
Note 4).

      Plan Withdrawals
      ________________

      Participants' withdrawals from Basic and Fund I are distributed in
shares of the Company's common stock and are stated at the carrying value of
the stock, which approximates the fair value, as of the most recent quarter
end.


      Participants' Accounts
      ______________________

      Investments in the Company's common stock were allocated to
participants' accounts based upon original cost.  Net appreciation
(depreciation) in fair value of all funds is allocated to participants'
accounts quarterly.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


PacifiCorp K Plus Employee Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the PacifiCorp K Plus Employee Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of changes in net
assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for
benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules
for the year ended December 31, 1996, listed in the Table of Contents, are
presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part
of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required
by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These
supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit
of the basic 1996 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated
in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic 1996
financial statements taken as a whole.

PACIFICORP K PLUS EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
______________________________________________________________________________

1.   PLAN DESCRIPTION

     The following brief description of the PacifiCorp K Plus Employee Savings
     Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only.
     Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete
     information.

     GENERAL - Effective January 1, 1988, PacifiCorp (the "Company") and most
     of its subsidiaries ("Employers") adopted the Plan. The Plan is a
     tax-qualified employee savings plan covering all employees of the
     Employers, except employees identified as "casual employees" within the
     Employer's payroll system, employees covered by a collective bargaining
     agreement that does not provide for participation in the Plan, leased
     employees, and temporary employees. Qualified employees of the Employers
     become eligible to participate after completing one month of service as
     defined in the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
     Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

     PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS - Participants may elect to contribute a
     percentage of their pre-tax annual compensation as defined in the Plan
     ("Pre-Tax Contributions"). Different percentages can apply to separate
     Employers, but in no event will the percentage be more than 16% of
     eligible compensation, or 14% for participants eligible to participate in
     the PacifiCorp K Plus Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

     Each Employer makes a matching contribution each year for each
     participant ("Matching Contribution"). The Matching Contribution is a
     percentage of the participant's Pre-Tax Contribution for the year, up to
     6% of the participant's compensation for the year. The Matching
     Contribution percentage is 50% or a percentage fixed in the Employer's
     adoption statement or by resolution of the Board of Directors of the
     Employer and announced to participants, or pursuant to a collective
     bargaining agreement. Other than for employees covered by certain
     collective bargaining agreements, the Matching Contribution is made to
     the PacifiCorp K Plus Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

     VESTING - Pre-Tax Contributions are fully vested at all times. Matching
     contributions are vested based on years of service as follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
          YEARS OF SERVICE                           PERCENT VESTED
          ________________                           ______________
          <S>                                        <C>           

              Less than 1                                    0%
                   1                                        20%
                   2                                        40%
                   3                                        60%
                   4                                        80%
               5 or more                                   100%
</TABLE>

     PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS - Each participant's account is credited with
     Pre-Tax Contributions, Matching Contributions, where applicable, and an
     allocation of the Plan's earnings. Pre-Tax Contributions are
<PAGE>5
     credited based on the participant's election, Matching Contributions are
     credited according to the formula in the Plan, and Plan earnings are
     allocated based on participant account balances.

     PARTICIPANT WITHDRAWALS - Vested benefits are payable in a lump sum upon
     retirement, termination, death or disability. If the participant's
     account balance exceeds $3,500, the participant may defer payment, or
     upon retirement, elect installment payments over a specified period of
     time not exceeding 15 years from the date of commencement of benefits.
     The Plan also provides for withdrawals due to financial hardship.

     PARTICIPANT LOANS - Participants may borrow from their account balance a
     minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 100%
     of their account balance under the Plan. Loan terms range from 1 to 5
     years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The
     loans bear interest at a rate commensurate with local prevailing rates
     and are secured by the balance in the participant's account and an
     assignment of current pay of the participant sufficient to service the
     loan.

     PLAN TERMINATION - Although it has not expressed any intentions to do so,
     the Company may wholly or partially terminate the Plan or direct the
     discontinuance of contributions at any time, subject to the provisions of
     ERISA.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The financial statements of the Plan are prepared
     under the accrual method of accounting.

     INVESTMENT VALUATION - The investment in PacifiCorp common stock is
     stated at fair value based on published market quotations at year end. 
     The per share market values of the PacifiCorp common stock at
     December 31, 1996 and 1995 were $20.500 and $21.125, respectively. The
     Pacific Telecom, Inc. common stock fund was discontinued in 1995 (see
     Note 7). 

     The Plan's investments in guaranteed investment contracts are stated at
     contract value which represents contributions made under the contract,
     plus earnings, less withdrawals. Management believes that the contract
     value approximates fair value for the guaranteed investment contracts. 
     The average yield to maturity of the guaranteed investment contracts was
     6.14% at December 31, 1996 and 6.51% at December 31, 1995. There were no
     valuation reserves at December 31, 1996 and 1995. Investments in mutual
     funds are stated at fair value based on quoted market prices. Temporary
     cash investments and participant loans are stated at cost which
     approximates fair value.

     INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME - Investment transactions
     are accounted for on the date the investments are purchased or sold
     (trade date). Interest income is recorded as earned. Dividend income is
     recorded on the ex-dividend date. Changes in fair value of investments
     during the year are recorded as net appreciation or depreciation in fair
     value of investments.

     FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - The Plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan in
     accordance with Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
     amended (the "Code"), and related provisions. The Plan includes elective
     contribution provisions designed to qualify under Code Section 401(k) and
     related provisions. The Company has received a determination letter dated
     June 23, 1993 in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan,
     as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of
     the Code. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination
     letter. However, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is
     currently designed and being operated in
<PAGE>6
     compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code. Therefore, no
     provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's financial
     statements.

     BENEFITS PAYABLE - As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, net assets available
     for benefits included benefits of $45,880 and $226,267, respectively, due
     to participants who have withdrawn from participation in the Plan.

     ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - The Plan provides that each employer may pay
     administrative costs and expenses of the Plan; those costs not paid by
     each employer are paid from Plan assets.

     PARTICIPANT LOANS - Loan transactions are treated as a transfer between
     the investment funds and the Participant Loan Fund.

     USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
     with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
     estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and
     liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
     amounts of increases and decreases to net assets during the reporting
     period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain reclassifications have been made to prior
     year balances in order to conform with current year presentation. These
     reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net assets
     available for benefits.

3.   INVESTMENT PROGRAMS AND FUND INFORMATION

     contributions in any of the following funds:

7.   MERGER OF PACIFIC TELECOM, INC.

     On September 27, 1995, holders of a majority of the 5.3 million shares of
     outstanding common stock held by minority shareholders of Pacific
     Telecom, Inc. voted in favor of the merger of an indirectly wholly-owned
     subsidiary of the Company into Pacific Telecom, Inc. As a result of the
     merger, the common stock held by minority shareholders (other than shares
     as to which dissenters' rights were perfected) were converted into the
     right to receive $30 per share in cash and Pacific Telecom, Inc. became
     an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

8.   MERGER OF CENTRALIA MINING COMPANY THRIFT PLAN

     Effective December 31, 1996, the Centralia Mining Company Thrift Plan was
     merged into the Plan. As a result of the merger, the net assets available
     for benefits of the Centralia Mining Company Thrift Plan were transferred
     into the Plan on that date.  The assets transferred consisted of
     $20,376,281 in cash, 241,253 shares of PacifiCorp common stock valued at
     $4,945,687 at December 31, 1996 and participant loan investments totaling
     $754,612. Participants of the Centralia Mining Company Thrift Plan became
     participants of the Plan effective January 1, 1997.

9.   CONCENTRATION OF RISK

     The Plan's assets consist primarily of financial instruments including
     temporary cash investments, investment contracts, PacifiCorp common
     stock, mutual funds, and participant loans. These financial instruments
     may subject the Plan to concentrations of risk, as from time to time,
     cash balances exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
     Corporation, market value of securities are dependent on the ability of
     the issuers to honor contractual commitments, and investments in common
     stock are subject to changes in market values of the stock.

10.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT
