S. A. Utility Advisory Committee Memo November 14, 2006 Utility Advisory Committee Larry Dunbar, Power Resources Manager Water Rate Adjustments Summary: HDR Engineering, Inc. and City staff completed a rate study for the Water and Wastewater Utilities in early 2005 and City Council authorized rate adjustments in late 2005. An update to the rate study was completed by staff and will be presented to the Utility Advisory Committee including the recommended retail rate adjustments. It will be necessary to adjust retail water rates at this time to maintain the fund in a financially prudent position. Recommendation: Forward a favorable recommendation to City Council to proceed with a public hearing on the rate study and proposed rate adjustments. Background/Analysis: The City contracted with HDR Engineering, Inc. last year to assist staffwith a rate study for the Water and Wastewater Utilities. On December 6,2005, City Council approved a January 2006 rate adjustment for the Water Utility based on the study and directed staff to update the study prior to returning-to-eouncil for subsequent adjustments.- Rate adjustments were approved for the Wastewater Utility for years 2006-2008. The City Council set a public hearing date on November 21, 2006 for a presentation on the updated study and to allow public input after the presentation. The public hearing will be continued to December 5, 2006 at which time the public hearing will be closed. City Council will be requested to consider adoption of a new rate ordinance at the December 5, 2006 City Council meeting. Proposed changes to the rate ordinance include: water base and consumption charges; and a few minor housekeeping matters. The proposed retail rate adjustments and housekeeping amendments will be included in the presentation. Staff recommends forwarding a favorable recommendation to City Council to proceed with a public hearing on the proposed rate adjustments. N:\UAC\Onginal\Water Rate Adjustments 2006 doc , .

S. A. Utility Advisory Committee Memo Date: November 14, 2006 To: Utility Advisory Committee From: Larry Dunbar, Power Resources Manager Subject: Smart Metering and Time-Based Electric Rates Summary: In accordance with the Energy Policy Act of2005, all electric utilities are required to offer their customers smart metering and time-based retail rates no later than February 8, 2007. Recommendation: For information only. Background/Analysis: The Energy Policy Act of2005 requires all electric utilities to offer smart metering and time-based retail rates no later than February 8, 2007 (see attached for more information). The Act also requires the City to conduct a public involvement process by August 8, 2007 to determine if it should proceed with smart meters and time-based rates on a system-wide basis. As part of its August 2007 decision, the City Council may wish to consider the cost and benefit of programmable electric meters and continuation of physical meter reading compared to au!omatic meter reading. As a separate but related matter, a change in the way electric meters are read could affect the way water meters are read and/or the water utility's cost of meter reading. This federal mandate requires the City to offer smart metering and time-based electric rates but does not preclude the City from recovering it's costs to provide such services. It is anticipated that time-based rates would initially be optional and that customers that selected the rate would be required to pay for the smart meter and any additional City costs to read meters and process utility bills. An August 2007 decision to proceed with smart meters and time-based rates on a system- wide basis may result in discontinuing the current flat rate design. Retail time-based rates would resemble wholesale power and transmission rates that are time- based. The current Bonneville Power Administration wholesale power rates that are time-based include: heavy load hour energy; light load hour energy; and peak demands for generation and transmission. Staffwill present wholesale generation and transmission rate information and preliminary time- based rate design options at the meeting. Staff is seeking guidance from the utility advisory committee about time-based rates. Staffwill return to the utility advisory committee no later than the January 2007 meeting seeking a recommendation to City Council on time-based rates. N'\UAC\Origmal\Electnc Time-Based Rates 2006.doc Smart Metering Section 1252(a) of the Energy Policy Act establishes a standard for Smart Metering as: (14) TIME-BASED METERING AND COMMUNICATIONS (A) Not later than 18 months after the date of enactment of this paragraph, each electric utility shall offer each of its customer classes, and provide individual customers upon customer request, a time-based rate schedule under which the rate charged by the electric utility varies during different time periods and reflects the variance, if any, in the utility's costs of generating and purchasing electricity at the wholesale level. The time-based rate schedule shall enable the electric consumer to manage energy use and cost through advanced metering and communications technology. (B) The types oftime-based rate schedules that may be offered under the schedule referred to in subparagraph (A) include, among others- (i) time-of-use pricing whereby electricity prices are set for a specific time period on an advance or forward basis, typically not changing more often than twice a year, based on the utility's cost of generating and/or purchasing such electricity at the wholesale level for the benefit of the consumer. Prices paid for energy consumed during these periods shall be pre- established and known to consumers in advance of such consumption, allowing them to vary their demand and usage in response to such prices and manage their energy costs by shifting usage to a lower cost period or reducing their consum~!!<?!l ~v~rall; ___ ___ ___ _ ____ (ii) critical peak pricing whereby time-of use prices are in effect except for certain peak days, when prices may reflect the costs of generating and/or purchasing electricity at the wholesale level and when consumers may receive additional discounts for reducing peak period energy consumption; (iii) real-time pricing whereby electricity prices are set for a specific time period on an advanced or forward basis, reflecting the utility's cost of generating and/or purchasing electricity at the wholesale level, and may change as often as hourly; and (iv) credits for consumers with large loads who enter into pre-established peak load reduction agreements that reduce a utility's planned capacity obligations. (C) Each electric utility subject to subparagraph (A) shall provide each customer requesting a time-based rate with a time-based meter capable of enabling the utility and customer to offer and receive such rate, respectively.

S. A. CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE October 27,2006 Robert Elofson Elwha River Restoration Program Coordinator Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe 2851 Lower Elwha Road Port Angeles, W A 98363 RE: Acceptance of Waste Water from the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe Reservation Dear Robert: We greatly appreciated you making time in your schedule to discuss the possibility of selecting the City to process wastewater from the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe (LEKT) reservation. We hope that was the beginning of meaningful discussion between the staffs of the LEKT and the City. Per your request, this-letter is to formally advise the LEKT that the City is prepared to negotiate a comprehensive agreement to accept and tr~at w-astewater from the reservation. City staff are following direction received from City Council to negotiate a fair and reasonable agreement addressing concerns of both of our organizations. In particular, City staff will support a rate that reflects that the LEKT will not contribute to the City's combined sewer overflow challenges. The draft agreement last discussed in early 2005 may serve as the framework for moving forward. As the next step, we should review and modify that draft as discussed at our meeting on October 17, 2006. The City's general sewer plan, approved by the Washington State Department of Ecology on September 14, 2006, is available on a CD and is enclosed for your use. I look forward to a favorable response and our next meeting. Sincerely, 711~e ~ 111~ Mark E. Madsen City Manager Ene. 321 EAST FIFTH STREET. POBOX 1 150 .
