l :G -D� Q
1. NCPA: I am continuing to be involved in NCPA's utility managers group meetings. This
group consists of the manager of each of the NCPA member utilities. We are meeting each
month to help guide NCPA into the new deregulated electric industry. l anticipate that my
involvement will increase in 1997 and beyond. /also anticipate that Steve Hollabaugh and
Scott Terrell will be more involved with NCPA and deregulation issues in 1997.
2. Electric industry deregulation: The California legislature has passed AB 1890. The bill
passed unanimously in both houses of the legislature and Governor Wilson is expected to
sign it. This is the bill that restructures the electric industry in California. I am attaching the
legislative counsel's digest to this report for your review. The provisions of this bill will need
to be discussed by the Board of Directors and a few decisions will need to be made
regarding District involvement. I am also not certain at this point how this bill effects
SPPCo's involvement in California. This bill is certain to be discussed at the NCPA
conference in Monterey later in the month.
3. TROA: Pat Sutton and I continue to be involved in the Truckee River Operating Agreement
negotiations. The next big negotiating session involving the five parties mandatory to the
agreement will occur on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week in Reno. The rive mandatory
parties to TROA are the State of California, the State of Nevada, the U.S. Government, the
Paiute Tribe and SPPCo. The topic that I am following most closely is the regulation of the
use of groundwater and standards for construction of well.
4. Water service in Mantis valley:Pat Sutton and i attended a Placer County LAFCo meeting
where water service to Manis valley was discussed. We leamed that Placer County Water
Agency has created an entity called Zone 4 in the Martis valley to serve Lahontan
(Gooseneck Ranch). We voiced our concern, but it fell on deaf ears. This is a matter the
PUD Board needs to discuss further.
5. Timber harvest: The harvest of timber from the McGlashan property has begun. So far the
work is progressing quickly. We expect to be complete by October 10. We have received
no complaints from the neighbors.
6. Sphere of influence: I have spent time reviewing the District's draft Sphere of Influence
report prepared by Keith Sauers. I have also spoken with Tony Lashbrook regarding our
last set of comments on the Town's sphere report. Tony tells me he has been instructed by
the town council to work with us to reach some agreement on the definition of "urban
development."
7. Budget preparation: Staff is working on the 1997 budget. We intend to stick to the budget
calendar presented to the Board, so you should be receiving a draft budget from us in early
November.

Note: Since most of these projects are ongoing, Staff continues to report the basic
information and highlights the activities that have occurred during the reporting month.
When a project or activity is completed it is reported, then deleted from this report.
Strategic Planning/District $Savings
Business Customer Communications- Staff will finalize the development of a Key
Account Management Program proposal this October. This newly developed
program is designed to foster a positive, open line of communication with our
largest customers and determine how they feel about TDPUD's service and how
they see working with TDPUD in the future. TDPUD Staff has had some preliminary
discussions with TTSA and Tahoe-Truckee Unified School District Staff about
deregulation and their future needs and wants. TDPUD Staff has arranged a deal
with the California Energy Commission to provide free Energy Services consulting
to TTSA to improve their wastewater system's energy efficiency.
TDPUD Competition Plan- Staff is planning to prepare a report about the different
utility issues we are currently being challenged by. The report will include a discussion
,■-� of the different approaches TDPUD can take to meet these challenges as well as an
analysis and recommendations to respond to competition. This comprehensive report
is being postponed until the evaluation results of the GSHP pilot, the large Business
Customer meetings and other competition related projects and issues are available.
Energy/Water Showcase Program- HDR Engineering, Inc. has prepared and
submitted a report to TDPUD Staff that identifies cost-saving energy-efficiency
water system improvement options available to TDPUD. HDR is currently completing
some in-depth analysis on the cost-effectiveness of some additional controls for
water system efficiency. A meeting with HDR, Sauers, Sandel-Avery and TDPUD is
scheduled for September 23 to discuss the need for some additional control
strategies to improve power savings for the TDPUD water system. After the final
document is completed TDPUD can decide which options may be worth implementing
based on their cost-effectiveness to the District.
Conservatlon/DSM/Economic Development
Ground Source Heat Pump Pilot Site Activity- Nine GSHP pilot site units are currently
in operation. A tenth site is partially completed in Glenshire. The ground source heat
exchangers were installed August 23. This will culminate the pilot site installations.
Truckee Community GSHP Pilot Project- The monitoring activities are expected to
begin by Winter, 1996. The pilot site monitoring equipment is current being ordered
through the SMUD procurement process. The monitoring program design has been
completed. The grant-funded research activities including the findings will be
completed by April of 1997.
CA GEO-Heat Pump Show- TDPUD and Siena-Pacific Power Company Staff are
currently marketing the California Ground Source Heat Pump Show in North Lake
Tahoe October 19-20. TDPUD will be using the TDPUD display system at the Show.
The Show will educate consumers and building professionals on the technology. The
Show will include many GSHP industry exhibitors.
GSHP Bulk Purchase & Installation Program- I am working with Truckee consumers
to plan and implement a bulk purchase & installation program for home and business
owners interested in installing ground source heat pumps at a reduced cost. The
August 5 meeting was successful. There are currently over 20 potentially interested
participants. Staff is planning to hold these meetings every month and continue to
attract new participants. The next meeting is scheduled for September 10.
TDPUD GSHP Cost Study- I have arranged at Kathy's request a study to determine
the cost of installing GSHPs into the TDPUD building for heating and cooling. The
study is being conducted by Sierra Air in Reno and WaterFurnace International, a
major GSHP manufacturer. A review of this study will be conducted by TDPUD and
Sauer's Engineering Staff. The study is expected to be completed in October.
CFIA Demonstration Project- Staff has been in contact with Professor Samuel Sami
of Moneton University in Canada regarding his testing of a Combined Cycle Fully
�^ Integrated Air/Air Heat Pump(CFIA). Tests so far have shown that it has comparable
performance benefits of GSHPs without the cost of a ground loop. Staff has
developed a CFIA mini-pilot draft proposal and a draft confidentiality agreement.
These documents are currently being reviewed.
GSHP/Water Heater Promotion- Staff is working toward getting the Truckee GSHP
pilot monitoring program in place so that we will have data available to perform an
analysis of the benefits and costs of using GSHPs in Truckee. The results of this
study will be used to determine GSHP's role in TDPUD's Strategic Plan. A draft
proposal has been developed to promote the benefits of high efficiency electric
water heating to TDPUD customers.
Energy Surveys/High Bill Assistance- Staff completed 0 commercial and 1
residential energy survey(s) this month. Staff also responded on-site to
2 "high" bill complaint(s).
Business & Energy Efficiency Partnership- The incorporation of energy and water
efficiency measures are expected to be retrofitted into the Chamber building by
October, 1996. Currently about 80% of these measures are installed. Staff is
currently working on a self-guided tour brochure of energy and water efficiency
measures for the Chamber building. The Open House for the new Chamber facility
and the Business & Energy Efficiency Partnership is being planned for October 8,
1996. Truckee Businesses and residents will be invited and are encouraged to
attend this event.
Sierra Nevada Children's Museum- SNCM Staff has asked TDPUD to participate in
their upcoming Mountain Home Construction Display. TDPUD Staff has offered to
assist the project with energy, water conservation and ground source heat pump
information including display assistance. In addition, TDPUD Staff has offered to
provide a home energy self-audit survey for kids to learn about home energy
surveying. They will learn to perform a walk-through survey of their home. Staff
has also offered to come to their home to assist in the survey if requested. Staff
also plans to integrate tours of the Chamber's energy and water-efficient building
and grounds along with GSHP sites into the "program".
Comm unications/Public Relations/Education
Newsletter- The Fall Current Issues newsletter has been completed and will be
mailed to our customers beginning mid-September. Topics include: Chamber
Open House, GSHP Bulk Purchase $ Installation Program, GEO-Heat Pump Show,
Automated Meter Reading, and Address Visibility.
Critical Issues Communication- Staff met with five different marketing and
advertising agencies July 19 to discuss their ideas on implementing a critical
issues communication program for TDPUD. A review of each agencies written
proposals is planned for in September.
/^ Community Calendar- The Tahoe-Truckee Unified School District Community/
Measure S calendar has been completed. TDPUD Staff reserved May, 1997 and
October, 1996 to promote Water Awareness Week and Public Power Week.

report on Truckee's AQMP prepared by the Northern-Sierra AQMD in conjunction with
the Town of Truckee. Staff attended the August 13 meeting. I was on vacation at the
time of the August 27 meeting. The Committee is currently evaluating different
options for mitigating the PM 10 problem in Truckee. GSHPs are one of the options
being considered. The end result of the Committee's efforts will be to recommend
�,... mitigation efforts to reduce PM 10(particulate matter <10 microns) in Truckee. The
two main causes of PM 10 in Truckee are road sand dust and burned particulate
matter from wood burning.
Northern California Power Agency Member Services Task Force- A meeting was not

Submitted by Mary Chapman, September 16, 1996
CUSTOMER SERVICE:
Activity has been relatively quiet for the customer services staff. This has allowed them to stay
caught up with their work and filing. Becky will be helping the meter reading staff change out
meters on Thursday.
NEW CONSTRUCTION:
New construction requests have also slowed down some. The USA requests continue to come
in for pipeline locations.
Sue Camara who is the work order clerk has accepted the buyer/clerk position in Support
Services. The work order clerk position was posted in house. We did not receive any bids.
Therefore, we will be advertising to fill the position from outside the organization.

Billing is current.
ACCOUNTING:
Accounts payable and payroll are current. We are currently working on the August financial
reports.
PERSONNEL:
During the last couple of weeks, I have given tests for the electric technician position, the
buyer/clerk position and the warehouse/utility worker positions.
BUDGET:
The budget forms have been distributed to the department heads. I will be spending the next

STAFF REPORT

To: Board of Directors
From: Bob Quinn, Electric Superintendent
Subject: August Activity Report
AGENDA ITEM
During the month of August, crews worked on various projects that included development
agreements, a master plan project, and maintenance. The following is a listing of those
projects where crew hours were logged.
In the Olynpc Heights subdivision, a pole was replaced to give proper clearances
between our facilities and those of cable TV and telephone. This project involved
transferring the primary feed to other circuitry and took several days to complete.
Knight's Crossing, a development agreement project in Glenshire, was completed. The
project involved the installation of underground facilities, padmount transformer, a
padmount primary junction cabinet, and a primary.riser.
r^
The Truckee River bridge crossing, a master plan project, was attempted. M recently
installed conduit at this location with S.W.Gas and this was our first attempt at getting a
rope through the new conduit. For two days, the crew attempted various ways to install
the pull rope but were unsuccessful and It was believed we would have to dig into the
street to ascertain the problem. As a final try, a contractor with power driven equipment
was employed to assist in the installation of the pull rope. After three days of effort, pull
ropes were finally installed into the new conduits and the crew was able to run a
mandrel through the conduits. The length of the runs (670) and the number of bends in
the conduit proved to be the problem. As of this writing, the conductor has been pulled
into the conduits and will be reflected in the September report.
The Rhodes development occurred during August and was completed. This project,
near Sugar Pine Estates, involved the installation of two padmount transformers and
related underground facilities.
At the west end of Donner Lake, we have had numerous problems during storms w7th
the old system we purchased from Sierra years ago. The crews spent a considerable
amount of time this past month upgrading those old facilities. Along Washoe, Fawn,
and Salmon streets, we eliminated the two wire primary system that creates voltage
problems during single phase outages and replaced the open wire secondary with
triplex secondary conductor. This area has been a constant source of problems and
Mth the in provements, should be more reliable.
The service crew completed 34 overhead and 7 underground service orders. In
addition, they completed 374 U.S.A's.
On August 19th our substation operator, electrical engineer, and two representatives
from Cooper Power, were in the Martis substation reprogrammng the redoser controls
for the eventual installation of our new SCADA system. During the process of
transferring load from one breaker to another, a switch was closed and upon closing the
insulator holding 112 of the energized switch arm failed. This allowed the energized
portion of the switch to come into contact with the metal structure and the resulting arc
went phase to phase melting conductors, destroying the bushings on the recloser, and
showering the operator with molten aluminum. Energized conductors swung freely and
one conductor fell to the ground. Very fortunately, there were no injuries. Investigation
showed no safety practices had been violated and the cause of the accident was
indeed a faulty insulator. This type of insulator had failed twice before within this station
but the prior failures were not of a nature that would lead to catastrophic failure as
occurred during this incident. As a result of this accident, all insulators of this type (78)
within the system are being replaced. They have been ordered and should arrive mid-
October with replacement taking place shortly thereafter.
Steve Hollabaugh, our electrical engineer, has been extremely busy working on the
SCADA system. Hopefully this project will on-line before the end of the year.
As you can see, the crews of this department were not resting on their laurels during August.
September should prove to be as productive.
