TO THE SUPPLEME2UAL AGREEMENT <br />The Power Sale Agreement with Idaho is for firm capacity of 3 megawatts, and <br />associated energy as displayed in Exhibit 1, to serve a portion of the City's <br />base load requirements. The Department is replacing existing short-term <br />contracts with long-term contracts to fix future costs of purchased power. <br />This contract runs to the year 2009. <br />STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM <br />The Department must plan ahead for resources to serve the City's existing and <br />future loads. This must be done by long-term contracts, building generation <br />and transmission facilities, or purchasing from SCE. The long-term contract <br />option is available now but may not be in the future at a reasonable price. <br />ALTERNATIVES <br />Purchase all power requirements of the City from SCE. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />Estimated $600,000 savings during first year of contract as compared with the <br />SCE partial requirements rate. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br />Could be beneficial to air quality in the Basin since the resource is in Idaho. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />That Council approve all contracts necessary for implementing the purchase and <br />delivery of power from Idaho and that the Electric Utility Director sign all <br />documents on behalf of the City. <br />Attachments: (Agreement is on file in City Clerk's office for your review.) <br />Page 1 Item No. 3 <br />Concur- <br />
