Utility Advisory Committee Memo Date: September 27, 2006 To: Utility Advisory Committee From: Scott McLain, Deputy Director for Power Systems Subject: Service Agreement for Network Integration Transmission Service with BP A Summary: The City's electrical transmission service agreement with the Bonneville Power Administration is expiring on September 30,2006. The attached service agreement utilized the City's reservation priority rights under the current Open Access Transmission Tariff (OA TT). This will give Port Angeles transmission rights over the BP A system for the next 30 years. Recommendation: Forward a favorable recommendation to City Council to authorize the Mayor to sign the Service Agreement for Network Integration Transmission Service with the Bonneville Power Administration. Background/Analysis: At the City Council meeting on July 18,2006, the Council approved the City's application for electric transmission service from the Bonneville Power Administration. The Current agreement will expire on September 30, 2006. BP A adopted their Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT) in 1998. This tariff defines the terms and conditions for Point-to-Point (PTP) and Network Integration Transmission (NT) services. This tariff was adopted by BP A after the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued order 888 prescribing pro-forma, open access tariffs by all transmission providers to insure a level playing field for competitive power markets. This Transmission Service agreement is not a negotiated agreement, but rather implements the terms and conditions available under the tariff. The City, in its application for transmission service, exercised our Reservation Priority rights for Existing Firm Service Customers, pursuant to section 2.2 of the tariff. If this priority right should ever be removed from the tariff, the City would be required to compete with other transmission users for use of the transmission system. Selection of a 30 year term for this agreement will preserve our transmission rights for the maximum term allowed under the tariff.
