Utility Advisory Committee Memo
October 9, 2012
Date:
To: Utility Advisory Committee
From: Ken Dubuc, Fire Chief
Subject: Utility Advisory Committee Appointment
Summary: For years, the City has had a member on the Utility Advisory Committee who
represents the community and the local Licensed Care Facilities on matters related to the Medic I
utility. That committee position is currently vacant. The City has received an application for
appointment to the Utility Advisory Committee from Michael Jacobs, the Administrator from
Crestwood Convalescent Center. Administrators from the local Licensed Care Facilities were
contacted and it was agreed that Mr. Jacobs will represent the community and the Licensed Care
Facilities with regard to issues related to the Medic I utility.
Recommendation: Staff requests that the Utility Advisory Committee provide a favorable
recommendation to City Council to appoint Michael Jacobs to serve as the Medic I
representative on the Utility Advisory Committee.
Background /Analysis: Since the Medic I Utility was formed, there has been a member on
the City Utility Advisory Committee who represents the Community and the local Licensed Care
Facilities on matters related to the Medic I utility. This position is typically held by an
Administrator from one of the four local Licensed Care Facilities. The Medic I representative to
the UAC only attends those UAC meetings that have a Medic I related issue on the agenda. There
is currently a vacancy in this position due to a job location change.
The Fire Chief met with the Administrators from Laurel Park Assisted Living, Crestwood
Convalescent Center and Park View Villas to interview them and determine if they were interested
in submitting an application. The Administrator from St. Andrews Place was not interviewed
because she was leaving the position within a few days. Mike Jacobs, the Administrator from
Crestwood Convalescent Center indicated that he would be interested in applying to fill the current
vacancy. The other Administrators indicated their support for Mr. Jacobs.
Mr. Jacobs has submitted a completed City of Port Angeles Application for Appointment.
Staff requests that the Utility Advisory Committee provide a favorable recommendation to City
Council to appoint Mike Jacobs to serve as the Medic I representative on the Utility Advisory
Committee.

Utility Advisory Committee Memo
Date: October 9, 2012
To: Utility Advisory Committee
From: Larry Dunbar, Deputy Director of Power and Telecommunications Systems
Subject: Morse Creek Hydroelectric Project Evaluation
Summary: Staff is seeking a recommendation from the Utility Advisory Committee to determine
the future of the Morse Creek Hydroelectric project.
Recommendation: Provide a recommendation to City Council to proceed with one of the
following options related to the Morse Creek hydroelectric project:
1. Continue the project, including proceeding with $100,000 of repairs necessary to enable
operation, or
2. Place the project in standby mode to minimize costs, and delay the repairs until if /when
City Council desires operation to resume, or
3. Retire the project and maintain ownership, or
4. Sell the project and property in their present condition, after declaring them to be surplus
to the City's needs.
Background /Analysis: On June 12, 2012, staff updated the Utility Advisory Committee on
the cost of operating and maintaining the Morse Creek Hydroelectric project. It was pointed out
that during testing of the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition System it was discovered that
the bearings on the generator will require replacement. The project is now 25 years old (half way
through its 50 year Federal Energy Regulatory Commission license period) and additional
maintenance, replacements and improvements should be expected in the future. At that time the
Utility Advisory Committee asked staff to return with additional information after the cost of
repairs was estimated.
On July 10, 2012, staff shared that a $100,000 cost estimate was received for repairs necessary to
enable operation. Staff recommended that due to the repair costs and future operating risk that
retirement or sale of the hydroelectric facility should be considered. Staff notified stakeholders
about possible retirement of the project and requested they share their needs and interests. On
August 14, 2012, staff summarized the responses received from stakeholders and the Utility
Advisory Committee asked staff to complete an economic analysis.
At today's meeting staff will present the economic analysis, and seek a recommendation from the
Utility Advisory Committee to City Council to determine the future of the project. A summary of
future options for the project are set out on the following page.

To: Utility Advisory Committee
From: Larry Dunbar, Deputy Director of Power and Telecommunications Systems
Subject: Utility Rate Adjustment Recommendations
Summary: FCS Group completed comprehensive rate studies for the Electric, Water,

and any additional input received since then. The following rate adjustments are included in the
attached proposed rate ordinance amendments:
