TRUCKED DON PUBLIC T ITY DISTRICT A J. on emi , Pre ident Prepared by 7dAKU0C Barbara Cahill,,Deputy District Clerk bhc v. 3 Minutes Sept. 20, 2006 Agenda Item # R E . DONNER Public Utility District Staff Report To: Board of Directors From: Peter Holzmeister Date: September 15, 2006 Subject: General Manager monthly report Water meters: I have been writing articles that appear in our newsletter describing our need for water rate increases and describing our costs and entire revenue system. Apparently some customers read the newsletters because I have received a number of a-mails commenting on the articles and asking about water meters. The general comment is that they understand our need to money, but that flat rate water is unfair. They are not complaining about the need for a rate increase, but they want to make sure the water rate is fair, and water meters would make the rate structure fairer. Attached are the recent e-mails I received and my responses. From these and many other notes I have received I believe there is a growing interest in water meters in Truckee. Budget: We are all working on the budget for 2007. We are close to having a first draft for you to see. We plan on presenting it to the board on October 4cn Compensation study: I have been reviewing the draft employee compensation study and estimating how to incorporate a reasonable dollar amount in the 2007 budget to cover labor costs. We will very quickly begin negotiating with the Union on the terms of a new MOU. The management staff and I are pulling our thoughts together. This matter will come before the Board in closed session on September 20. COP: Mary Chapman and I are working with the finance team to prepare Certificate of Participation documents for presentation to the Board on September 20. We will be visiting Standard and Poore prior to that meeting to secure a favorable rating and with bond insurance companies in an effort to secure insurance. This entire matter will come to the Board very quickly. Donner Lake drainage issues: I am still hearing from Donner Lake residents concerning the flooding that occurred during the heavy storms early this year. There is concern that flooding will occur again during heavy winter storms. There is the suggestion that our reconstruction of the water system at Donner Lake may have, in some small way, contributed to a change in storm water run-off. The bigger concern is that drainage conveyances from 1-80 are inadequate and poorly maintained. Also, historical drainage patterns at Donner Lake are altered year by year by construction of new homes. Man made drainage ditches at Donner Lake are inadequate and poorly maintained. Heavy rains overwhelm the area. I have been working with Glenn Merron to understand these issues and I have spoken with staff at Lahontan RWQCB to understand their perspective. I will keep you informed as the issue further develops. Agenda Item # TR UCKEE ,, * . F Ljbll(-- Utility District Staff Report To: Board of Directors From: Mary Chapman Date: September 14, 2006 CUSTOMER SERVICE: Customer service activity has been normal for this time of year. The staff has been doing a lot of end of summer transfers. They tell me that this is the calm before the storm and that they expect things to get busier in the next few weeks. The customer service reps say that the customers seem to be happy as they haven't been receiving any complaints or heard any grumbling. Nancy Rablin tells me that she is starting to see more application for new residential service come in. This is pretty typical for this time of year. Customers and contractors try to get more done before the snow flies. MONTHLY WORK: Our monthly work is current. This includes meter reading, billing, accounts payable, payroll and general ledger. The work order accounting staff continues to work diligently on dealing with new construction paperwork, miscellaneous billings and closing work orders. ACCOUNTING: Besides their routine work, the accounting group has been working on the following project work: Kim and Tricia continue to work on the 2007 budget. They have the first rough (very rough) draft for Peter to review with the department heads. Kim is beginning to prepare for the 2006 audit. The auditors will be here during the first few days of November to begin their field work. Tricia and Kim continue to refine the financial master plan. Tami continues to work on training Suzanne our utility clerk on miscellaneous billings and work order processes. Jennifer continues to work on inviting vendors to accept electronic payments in lieu of our issuing checks to them. She tells me that approximately 20 vendors have signed up so far for electronic payments. When a payment is made, an e-mail is automatically sent to the vendor letting them know that the payment has been made. BILLING: Lauren and Craig continue to work on the integration between the billing system software and the accounting system software. They still have a few problems to work out but think that the integration will streamline the month end processes between billing and accounting. Lauren is preparing to add the surcharge to the Donner Lake accounts. Scott is working with Peter to develop a mailer which will be included in the bills that go out to the Donner Lake customers explaining the charge. Becky continues to work on training Suzanne on the billing system. Suzanne is filling in now for Becky while she takes a short vacation. We expect to move Suzanne to meter reading training next. HUMAN RESOURCES: Nancy Waters has been working with the electric department to help fill a position of journey lineman. She is also working on preparing for negotiations. I continue to spend my time working with Sandra McDonald, bond counsel and the underwriters on preparing for the issuance of the 2006 COPs The documents are included in this packet. Sandra McDonald of McDonald Partners, Inc., Doug Brown from Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth (bond counsel) and Eileen Gallagher from Stone and Youngberg (underwriters) will all be at the 9/20 meeting. Bond counsel will review the documents with the Board and all three of them will be available to answer the Board's questions regarding the financing. I have completed my department budget and am reviewing it to see if I missed anything. I have also been working with CRC to plan the conversion from PCMSI to CRC for after hours call answering. I have provided them with most of the information that they need. I am also working with NISC on the billing system and CRC integration portion of the project. Ian is working with CRC and Minor and Minor on the interface between the Responder outage management system and the CRC Link software. Our scheduled conversion date is October 18, 2006. A representative from CRC will be here for one day to provide us with training on the CRC link software. I have also been working with Richard Blair to upgrade portions of our network. We've replaced four old PCs (5+ years) and purchased new switches which will enhance the communications speed of the network. Most of the switches were the original equipment we installed with the network. The technology of our equipment today is such that the switches that we had were bottlenecks in the system slowing down the communications. We will also be upgrading the Microsoft exchange software that runs our e-mail system. I have not had time to work on finding vendors to do the needs analysis for the phone system replacement. I did obtain the name of one person from Bill Thomason who does this type of work. I'd like to find at least a few others. The COP financing, the 2007 budget and the CRC conversion will all be done in the next few weeks. After that I will be able to turn my attention toward replacing the phone system.

Staff will resume giving presentations to Mrs. Mock's classes this Fall. Ground Source Heat Pump Program- Staff is currently looking into new ideas on how to educate and promote this technology to our customers. Staff has been contacted by several developers, architects and building engineers, etc. due to their interest in possibly pursuing GSHPs for projects they will be building. Staff has been working with Meline Engineering to evaluate the potential for a GSHP system for the building. They have conducted two studies which look promising and staff has asked them to prepare a proposal to do the engineering and write specifications for the project. This project is on hold until funding is available for it. Fuel Cells- Steve H. and Staff attended a fuel cell presentation given at TDPUD June 15. Delmar Networks offered a turn-key 5 Kw fuel cell for $15,000 to demonstrate fuel cell use in Truckee.

Truckee Home & Building Show- Staff helped the Home Show staff organize another great event. Staff gave a Green Building Presentation May 27, 2-4 p.m. to between 60 and 70 attendees of the Home Show. After the Green Building Seminar staff gave a Green Building Tour from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. to about 40 to 50 Home Show attendees. This is the best attendance and level of interest in green building we have had to date. The theme again for next year's 2007 Show will be green building and we plan to build a Green Building Symposium around the Home Show. The plan includes bringing in more green building type businesses into next year's event. Community/Statewide Involvement Town of Truckee Green Building Committee- Staff was appointed to the Town of Truckee Green Building Committee. The Committee is currently working on several new projects including looking at voluntary guidelines and more educational activities and information for consumers and local building professionals.

The group educates and assists building professionals in their pursuit of building energy-efficient, - economical and human and environmentally-sensitive buildings in the region. Many local building professionals are actively pursuing green building design. SIGBA organizes seminars and other events to assist consumers and building professionals in learning about green building and how it can benefit their home, business and lives in general. The Sigba Executive Comm. meets monthly. The next meeting is September 12. Regional Sustainability Grant Proposal/Study- Staff met with a group of people in No. Nevada, Lake Tahoe and Truckee to put together a proposal that will bring in funding from the National AIA group in Washington DC to conduct a sustainable economic development study for this region. The group was recently notified that the National AIA awarded the grant/study to this region. Staff meets regularly with this group and helped form a Planning Committee made up of representatives throughout the Region. The first Regional committee meeting was held May 15 in Reno. The next meeting was held June 13 in Truckee. The final meeting was held in So. Lake Tahoe June 21. The SDAT Project Planning Team made a visit to this Region July 10, 11 and met with about 40 Regional leaders representing such issues as: economic development, energy, water supply and quality, affordable housing, workforce issues, transportation, etc. The big SDAT event will take place the week of September 25th. There will be a team of six SDAT experts covering the following issues for this Region: Land Use, Economic Development, Energy, Water Quantity and Quality and Transportation. Sub-issues include such issues as the workforce and affordable housing. Green Building- This subject is gaining a lot of interest in the Truckeefrahoe area as an economic development tool. I have created several power point presentations on green building which cover this topic and many more. Staff has presented on and spoken at about 30 venues on this topic over the last four years. •Page 3 California Municipal Utilities Association- The CMUA group is working to create a stronger relationship with NCPA and SCPPA members to work collaboratively on programs and projects. The group is planning to work collaboratively on promoting green building throughout most of the public utility service areas in California. The next meeting will take place October 25, 26 in Santa Clara. NCPA Public Benefits Committee- Staff joined the newly formed NCPA Public Benefits committee to work with other NCPA member utilities to optimize benefits through collaboration. The group is put out an RFP to solicit bids from consultants to create a database of PB measures and their kW and kWh benefit. Bidders were interviewed in June and a contract was awarded to KEMA Consulting. NCPA member utility energy services staff has had several meetings to move this project forward. The project has been completed. This project will clarify to the CA legislature exactly how much money in being spent by each public utility on each specific area of the state-mandated public benefits program. The next NCPA PB meeting is planned for September 12. CA Regional Water Authority- Staff began attending RWA Water Conservation Committee meetings in April, 2005. The committee is made up of water representatives of most of the water agencies in No. CA. The group works together to optimize collaborative program benefits. TDPUD's involvement with this group is dependent on whether there are funds for our participation with them in 2006. Public Renewable Partnership(PRP)- Western Area Power Administration Staff formed a group called the Public Renewable Partnership made up of about 15-20 publically-owned electric utilities throughout the State. PRP applied and received $6,000,000 in grant funding from the California Energy Commission. The grant money included funding an assessment of whether a biomass plant could be built in the Tahoe- Truckee area that could provide a reliable supply of economical electric generation for any interested utility. The grant money also includes setting up a small-scale 15 kW biomass demonstration project. The Commissioning/Start-up and operator training took place the first week of November. The Biomax 15 unit became grid-tied and operating as of the last week in December. McNeil Technologies is submitting the Final Report on this pilot project early January and we will continue to collect data through 2006. A report on the feasibility of the larger scale(1-3 Megawatt) biomass project in Truckee is ready for Board review. TDRPD and Staff gave a presentation/update on the Truckee Biomass project to CEC staff June 26. Staff continues to work with TDRPD staff on the Truckee biomass unit in collecting data on its operation, maintenance and performance. BIG PAC- I met with a newly formed group of public agency councils(PAC) who are discussing ways to work together in their 50 plus local governments on green building issues and promotion. This group has completed it's work on Statewide voluntary Green Building Guidelines adapted from Alameda County Waste Management Authority's Green Points GB guidelines. The Guidelines are now being disseminated to city and county entities throughout the state and have now been adopted by the Town of Truckee. Utility Energy Forum Planning Committee- The May 3-5 UEF Conference was very successful. Staff was in charge of the organizing the Forum's Green Building pre-conference workshop which was rated very highly by participants. Staff also spoke on Truckee's Green Programs. Next year's UEF conference will focus on Sustainability including Green Building. US Green Building Association- TDPUD is a member of the USGBC. Staff attends the USGBC Annual conference at least every other year. Staff interacts with the San Fran USGBC Chapter as San Francisco activities certainly affect Truckee as many of Truckee's second homeowners are from the Bay area as well as those shopping for real estate in Truckee. This year the annual Green Building conference will be in Denver November 15-17. Staff plans to attend this event. 0 Page 4 Agenda Item # TRUCKEE DONNER 154 Public Utility District Staff Report To: Board of Directors From: Kathy Neus, Project Manager Date: September 12, 2006 Monthly Activity Report At the August 2"d board meeting there was a request to look into the western, undeveloped portion of Forest Lane. The question was whether or not the road was a county road that was deeded to the Town with incorporation or if the District still owned the piece of land. California Land Title Company was able to locate the resolution from the Board of Supervisors of Nevada County dated May 6, 1982 where the County Board rejected the right-of-way. I have included a map showing the rejected parcel of land. �-- Also concerning the parcel located at 11510 Forest Lane, I am currently asking for quotes on a lot split and legal descriptions. This is the parcel located behind the District complex next to Meadow Park. The District currently uses the lower portion for material storage in the summer and snow storage in the winter. We hope to be able to split the parcel at the bench area but both parcels still need to conform to Town standards for building lots. Andregg Geomatics is finishing up the legal descriptions for the District property off of Euer Valley Rd / ShaNeva Rd (the new Corporation Yard is part of this); once the new parcels and legal descriptions are given to the Town hopefully the approval process will go quickly since the change was what was recommended by Town Planning. Once the Town has approved the lot line adjustments, the Board can decide what to do next. After discussion with the Town, Johnson-Perkins, the appraiser was asked to give an appraisal for the complete 7 plus acre parcel split in two by Glenshire Dr. The appraiser also asked to look into a hypothetical scenario; the south piece to remain undeveloped and the north side piece divided into four parcels. The choice of four parcels was based upon the discussion with the Town and that was the maximum number of parcels that would be allowed. The appraisal for the Glenshire Dr property as one piece has been completed. I have begun the hunt for flu shots for the upcoming season. I have inquired of both Tahoe Forest Hospital and Saint Mary's Hospital in Reno. It looks like it might be whoever gets them first will be handling the District.

Installation of Generators—The proposed Water Department budget for 2006 calls for the installation of backup generators at the seven hydropneumatic pump stations. These hydropneumatic pump stations serve areas ranging from 6 to 40 houses. In the event of a power failure, water service to these customers is lost within a short while. Staff has prepared specifications for bidding and are waiting on funding from the COPs. • Donner Lake 6323 Tank Landscaping — Per the Encroachment Permit issued by the Town of Truckee, the District is responsible for some tree planting at landscaping at the Donner Lake 6323 Tank site. This work was not part of the contracts awarded (and completed) last year. I have met with Town staff in regards to the landscape plan and arranged for the Villager Nursery to perform the work within the next few weeks. The estimated cost for this work is under$4,000. • District Pipeline Replacement — 2007— I have been working on the planned pipeline replacement program that has been presented to the Board. Currently, replacement work for 2007 is planned on the following streets: Cristallina Way, Edelweiss Place, Swiss Lane, Chalet Road, Chateau Way, Hillside Drive �-- The final projects are subject to further evaluation this Fall. I am also investigating the possibility of using rehabilitation and/or lining methods to repair some of the failing pipelines. Four pipeline segments have been identified that are good candidates for a lining/rehab project. • District Pipeline Replacement —2008 — I have been working on the planned pipeline replacement program that has been presented to the Board. Currently, replacement work for 2008 is planned on the following streets: • Regency Circle, Lancaster Place, Somerset Drive, Windsor Way, St. James Place, Shore Pine Road, Frond Road, Laurel Court, Redbud Court, Whitetail Lane. Construction Inspection The following is a brief summary of the projects currently underway: • Brockway Road Transmission Pipeline — Construction began on May 8. The Contractor is working on the final section of pipe and I expect all of the pipe to be installed by the Board Meeting on September 20. The remaining work to be completed includes pressure testing, disinfection, pavement restoration and general clean-up. • District Pipeline Replacement — 2006 — Longo Incorporated began construction on Contract B during the week of May 22. The work on Lausanne Way and Bennett Flat Road is complete. All of the piping work on Mougle Lane has been completed and the old pipeline has been abandoned. The remaining work on Mougle Lane includes pavement restoration, mulching and general clean-up. I hope to close the project at the second Board meeting in October. will have a closeout Change Order at that time. It will include the following issues: 1) Difference between bid &actual quantities 2) Repair of old leaking water pipelines • Martis Valley Road Traffic Roundabout — This work has been completed and the pipeline has been placed into service. • Donner Lake Paving — The Board awarded a contract for this work to Teichert Construction at the August 16, 2006 meeting. Teichert began work on August 25 and completed the project on August 30. 1 anticipate closing the project at the September 20 Board meeting. Developer Projects Developer Projects—Office Engineering Mike Connell has spent time working on projects submitted by developers. As of September 13, there is no backlog. Current turn-around time is about 3-4 days. We are awaiting resubmittal on a number of projects. Developer Projects—Construction Inspection Paul Rose and Mike Connell are currently handling inspection of developer projects for 2006. There are numerous projects under way. Other Issues Caltrans has begun engineering and environmental studies regarding reconstruction of the railroad undercrossing on State Route 89 near Deerfield Drive and Western River Street (also known as the "Mousehole"). The District has an existing 12" asbestos-cement pipeline that runs through this undercrossing at a skew from one side of the road to the other. Depending upon the final plans for this location, it is possible that the District may be forced to reconstruct this pipeline at District expense. There will not be any construction activity during the Summer of 2006 and I will bring more information to the Board when it is available. Operations & Maintenance Distribution crew Repaired 23 more main and service line leaks. They spent 5 full days of paving asphalt. As of this writing there are still 14 leaks to be repaired on the leak list - down from the 17 that were on the list last month. They also did 17 open trenches (meter sets), and did 4 hot taps, 1 1/2" or larger. The person we have doing USA marking is still averaging about 15 tickets per day. He is doing these along with some meter maintenance. Operations Crew Working on the Old Greenwood well building. We received approval from the State Health Department to put the well on line and did so on August 7h. At the end of August, Well 20 in Glenshire failed. The motor was bad. It was 9 years old and we replaced it with a new one and put the well back into service on Friday September 8"'.The Operations crew has also been doing outside station maintenance on the well and booster station sites. In September, they will start painting over any graffiti on the tanks and buildings. Water Quality/Inspection For the summer, we still have 2 people doing inspection because of the number of waterline projects going on this summer. On the water quality side, we started to get air into areas of Glenshire that normally do not have air. This was because of Well 20 being down for 3 weeks.Now that the well is up and running,the water in the upper zone is back to normal.
