EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Truckee Donner Public Utility District (District) provides electric power to 13,300 customers and water to 12,600
customers. This service, along with capital replacements, is paid by rates. Expanding electric and water systems in
response to growth in the community is paid by developer fees.
This District budget for years ending December 31, 2016 and 2017 (FY16 and FY17) reflects past performance, current
requirements, and future opportunities and risks. The budgets for both the District's Electric Utility and Water Utility are
balanced. That is to say, the revenue and transfers from reserves are equal to the sum of expenses, debt service, capital
projects, and transfers to reserves.
There is no electric rate increase proposed for FY16 and FY17. An annual 6% water rate increase was adopted for FY16
and a 5% increase for FY17 is proposed. The Electric Utility continues to transition from traditional electric resources to
renewable generation. The Water Utility is improving infrastructure while maximizing the benefits of investments in water
meters and pipeline replacement. Both utilities are improving the reliability of the District's SCADA and communication
systems. The District continues to emphasize return on equity for all programs, resulting in stable rates and improvements
in the District's and customers' bottom lines.
This budget consists of five distinct parts.

Budget Assumptions
The key assumptions used in the FY16 and FY17 Budget were:
• 3% inflation for FY17
• No new debt
• No planned electric rate increase in FY16 & FY17
• Water,rate increase of 6% in FY16
• Maximum water rate increase of 5% in FY17
• Contract negotiations set union labor increases at 5% for FY16 and 3% for FY17
0 An electrician is expected to be added in FY16
• An engineer is expected to be added in FY17
2 Page 8 of 75
Overall Budget
The Electric budget is balanced with revenue collections, Carbon Cap & Trade (AB32) proceeds, and use of reserve
funds. The Water budget is balanced with revenue collections and the use of reserve funds.
The Electric revenue is projected to decrease 4% due to lighter winter weather patterns, decrease in joint pole revenue
based on the current contract and aggressive conservation & energy efficiency programs. The Water customer revenue
is projected to have a 6% increase in FY16 due to a rate increase. A 6% projected revenue increase in FY17 is due to a
maximum rate increase of 5% and a 1 % growth increase.
Electric expenses are budgeted to decrease 1 % due to reduced purchase power usage correlated with the reduced sales.
A 4% FY17 increase compared to FY16 is attributed to 3% inflation along with the addition of an engineer. Water
expenses increased 2% in FY16 and 4% in FY17 due to inflation.
Electric Utility
The utility continues to focus on system maintenance, tree trimming and a high level of RPS. The capital projects include
Master Plan, Meter Replacement Program (AMI), and new construction anticipated to increase compared to recent years.
Water Utility
The utility continues to focus on the Water SCADA Project, Meter Installations, Pipeline Replacements and Ponderosa
Palisades Pump Station Replacement.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS
(Electric Budget)
The Board of Directors consists of five elected members who serve four-year terms. The Board generally meets twice
each month on the first and third Wednesdays. The Board conducts its business in a legal, ethical, open, and transparent
manner.
The Board's basic responsibility is to represent the customers of the District. The Board establishes policy and goals for
the proper governing of the District and grants authority to staff to perform the day-by-day tasks necessary to serve
customer needs. The Board reviews the overall District performance by conducting regularly scheduled performance
reviews with the Genera! Manager. The policies adopted by the Board represent the values that the District seeks to
achieve in providing service to its owner/customers.
The Board adopted a Mission Statement and Statement of Objectives and Goals, which were used to form the FY16 and
FY17 Budget. Staff has conducted a series of workshops starting on September 2, 2015 covering the major budget
expenditures prior to presenting the draft budget. The purpose of these workshops was to educate the Board and the
Public, and to receive input and direction from the Board in completing the FY16 and FY17 Budget.
Staff is continuing its public outreach policy as directed by the Board of Directors. The Board continues it's dedication to
transparency. Board meetings are televised and streamed over the Internet. Prior meetings are also available online for
viewing through the District's website. There is time set aside within each agenda item for public input. The Board
conducts workshops before taking action on significant issues. All of these actions help manage the District in an
effective, efficient and fiscally responsible manner. For the budget, a public hearing was scheduled on November 4, 2015.

GENERAL MANAGEMENT
(Electric Budget)
The District's General Management Department consists of the General Manager; Executive Secretary & Deputy District Clerk; Special
Projects Administrator, and Human Resources Manager. The General Manager is the administrative head of the District with responsibility
for managing the day-by-day affairs of the organization. The Executive Secretary assists the General Manager in various aspects of his
duties, especially in arranging for Board meetings, legislative actions, and keeping proper custody of the records of the District. She also
provides administrative assistance to other members of the District's management and professional staff. The Special Projects
Administrator manages the District's solar and safety programs, acts as the District's real property representative and oversees the District
complex facilities. The Human Resources Manager is responsible for managing employee benefits, workers compensation claims and
coverage, ensuring compliance with the International Brotherhood Local Electrical Workers 1245 MOU, and keeping all employee
documentation current.
The primary role of the General Manager is to lead the District and serve as the primary contact between the elected Board and the
District staff. This includes overall fiscal responsibility, negotiating with the Union, and ensuring that the District is meeting its goals and
objectives. The General Manager prepares Board agendas, and makes certain that matters appearing on the agenda are adequately
researched and presented to the Directors in a meaningful way.
During FY14 and FY15, the General Manager's focus was to expand the purchase of renewable sources of energy for the District,
enhance the District's electric and water conservation programs, and investigate and propose a new multi -tiered rate structure for the
Electric Utility. All of these goals were achieved. The main District goals for FY16 and FY17 are:
6.1 Utilize modern, cost effective work methods and equipment,
6.2 Employ a qualified and productive workforce;
6.3 Provide safe work conditions and procedures that encourage employee growth, productivity and retention;
6.4 Control the growth of the District's discretional -operational spending to a rate less than the rate of inflation; and
6.5 Ensure that the Districts various capital projects are implemented in a smooth and cost effective manner.
In order to maintain the improved reporting relationship between the General Manager to the Board of Directors, the General Manager
will continue to hold semi-annual performance reviews with the Board. An end -of -year performance review is scheduled February 2016
to review all of the General Manager's accomplishments over the past year.
The District's is revising its safety program and goals to meet the District's goal of providing a safe and healthy work environment to all
District employees. We now have a safety incentive program, and have ongoing training and seminars for District staff. The fiscal impact
of these safety programs is to reduce our workers' compensation insurance cost.

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
(Electric Budget)
The Administrative Services Department supports both the electric and water utilities and is organized into seven functional
areas including customer services, collections, billing, meter reading, accounting, finance, and purchasing. It is staffed by
17 people and lead by the Administrative Services Manager. For FY16 and FY17 the Administrative Services Managerwill
be integrating the Conservation Department with Customer Services. We look forward to this integration to utilize staff
efficiently and effectively and enhance the level of customer service we are able to offer our customers. To help facilitate
this integration and to provide the District with depth in accounting, the vacant position of Finance and Accounting Manager
has been filled.
The department will continue to utilize technology to increase customer engagement and internal accuracy. The
implementation of a new web -based portal, called, "Smart Hub," enables customers to have easy, remote access to their
power and water consumption, in addition to the already existing capability of paying bills on-line and establishing automatic
recurring payments. Staff will continue to optimize this and other tools to minimize costs and still provide excellent customer
service.
Staff will continue to take advantage of opportunities to lower costs and improve internal controls and operating procedures
for billing, accounting and computer operations.
Staff will continue to be trained and developed to provide safe work conditions and encourage employee growth, productivity
and retention.
The District's financial goals will be reviewed annually to achieve a stable financial condition including planning, revenue,
debt, and reserve goals.

PUBLIC INFORMATION AND CONSERVATION
(Electric Budget)
The Public Information and Conservation Department is responsible for outreach to the public, providing energy and water
conservation services, administration of the District's public benefits and solar photovoltaic (PV) programs, and tracking of
State and Federal energy/water legislation.
The department staff consists of a Public Information and Conservation Manager, a Conservation Program Administrator,
a Conservation Program Specialist, and a part-time Conservation Customer Service Representative.
The department has a very successful, large portfolio of energy efficiency and conservation programs and also supports
the District's increasing communications and outreach efforts. Significant progress has been made developing the
District's energy conservation programs with a continued emphasis on return on investment. New and emerging
technologies, such as LED lighting and energy controls, will be important for continued cost-effective programs. Key
business programs include: Commercial Lighting Rebate; Business Green Partners; and special projects. Key residential
programs include: Residential Energy Survey (RES); Residential Green Partners; Energy Savings Program (ESP) for
income -qualified customers; Appliance Rebates; Refrigerator Recycle; Neighborhood Resource Mobilization (Block
Party); and the School Conservation Education `Trashion Shows'. Pursuant to SB1, the California Solar Initiative, the
District continued to administer its Solar PV Rebate Program for residential, commercial, and non-profit/government
customers. The S131 program is winding down as per State statute.
For FY16 and FY17, the department plans to consolidate our many programs and to focus on the delivery of these
benefits to our customers. Staff must also develop new, cost-effective energy efficiency programs to replace our existing
residential lighting programs (CFL's). There is also an increased emphasis in educational programs to help our
customers navigate the many energy choices available. Current staff is fully utilized supporting the many program,
customer interactions, and events in which the District participates.
The FY16 and FY17 budget reflects an increased emphasis on Legislation & Regulation (L&R), communications and
outreach, and special projects. This budget also reflects early signs of saturation for some of the District's energy
conservation programs and added challenges to maintaining cost-effective programs given the current regulatory and
political environment. The Solar PV Rebate Program will continue but at a lower budget. Plug-in Electric Vehicles
(PEV's) is a growing area of investment for the District. The demands on the Public Information Officer continue to grow
and, as the State responds to climate change with legislation (AB32) and new Renewable Portfolio Standards/Energy
Efficiency targets (SB 350), so will the District through our partnerships with NCPA, CMUA, and UAMPS.
17 Page 23 of 75
To maintain and enhance the District's public outreach programs, the Department will enhance communication to our
customers through community involvement, events, the web -site and social media (Facebook and Twitter), and traditional
communications and outreach. The Department will continue to build relationships with local and state partners while
conducting our business in an open and transparent manner.

ELECTRIC OPERATIONS
The Electric Operations Department is responsible for operating, maintaining, repairing and expanding the District's
electric distribution system. A primary department responsibility is to provide effective and efficient maintenance and
replacement programs and provide an effective, efficient and safe operations program.
The FY16 and FY17 Budget staffs the Department with an Electric Utility Manager (also serving as Power Supply
Engineer and Assistant General Manager), a Superintendent, a Superintendent/Project Administrator, a Senior Mechanic,
a Mechanic, two Electric System Engineers, an additional Electric Engineer to be hired in 2017, two Electrician / Meter
Technicians, one additional Electrician to be hired in mid-2016 to help with Water SCADA, three Foremen, a Lead
Lineman, a Substation Lineman, seven Lineman, two Apprentices and a Contract Administrator.
The department provides work conditions and procedures that encourage employee safety, growth, productivity, and
retention. Apprentices are trained both internally and externally. Journeymen are trained to utilize approved rubber
gloving practices. Employees are trained on underground practices and materials, as the District transitions to becoming
more of an underground utility.
During FY15, District growth continued to be sluggish and is forecasted to slowly recover in FY16 and FY17. As the
economy starts to recover, the department will concentrate efforts on system maintenance. Right-of-way maintenance to
reduce outages will be maintained, and approximately fifty poles have been identified for replacement each year.
Replacement of existing drive -by AMR meters with a fixed base collector system for AMI meter system is budgeted for
implementation in FY16 and FY17.
Capital improvements will be implemented as identified in the Electric System Master Plan.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT)
(Electric Budget)
The Information Technology (IT) Department is headed by the IT/IS/GIS Operations Manager and also includes the
positions IT/GIS Analyst, IT/SCADA Engineer, and the Network & Systems Administrator position, responsible for
network, storage and personal devices. Having internal IT staff helps reduce outside contractor costs for the District's IT
needs, increase IT knowledge of systems security, and provide additional accountability and redundancy. In FY16 and
FY17, the IT/GIS Analyst position will become an unrepresented professional employee.
The highest priority for this Department is to enable the Electric Department to operate faster, better, and more cost
efficiently, while providing secure access to critical control, mapping, and information systems. The departments aim is to
provide timely, relevant, and accurate information, when and where it is needed, to support sound decisions that improve
the quality, efficiency, cost, safety, and environmental footprint of the products and services the District delivers and uses.
To achieve the goals and implement the strategies in this plan, the ten guiding principles below focus on leadership and
excellence through quality of service, responsiveness, innovation, professionalism, and teamwork. These principles
require commitment not only from the District's IT professionals, but from all District employees.
1. Consult and advise department heads to drive IT initiatives according to business needs, goals, and objectives, and
developing a sound business case before making any new investment.
2. Foster interdepartmental cooperation in everything we do.
3. View IT from the perspective of the entire district and not from the perspective of individual departments.
4. Acquire, manage, and use technology resources economically and efficiently through standardized information
technology selection and implementation processes.
5. Securely hold and manage technology assets to protect private information.
6. Develop mechanisms and processes to share information easily within the organization and with customers and
partners.
7. Understand that availability and access to technology is a given, and design and build systems accordingly.
8. Aggregate, where feasible, to reduce duplication, and employ information technology that is flexible and
interoperable to respond quickly and efficiently to changing business needs.
9. Devise strategies to leverage investments in the District's existing technology.
10. Train the workforce in the skills needed to effectively use IT systems and the information they contain.

WATER OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION
The water budget projects total operating expenditures and transfers to reserve funds for FY16 and FY17 in the amount of
$11,323,527 and $11,626,923 respectively. The water budget also forecasts capital expenditures for FY16 and FY17 in
the amount of $2,929,790 and $2,958,189 respectively. For capital expenditures, $1,975,545 and $2,356,502 will be paid
by rates each year. The remaining costs will be paid from reserve funds. Operating revenues and transfers from various
reserve funds total $14,253,317 for FY16 and $14,585,112 for FY17. The water budget proposes a 6% rate increase in
FY16 and a maximum 5% rate increase in FY17, achieving an overall balanced budget.
The mechanics and hydraulics of water utility service is very complex in a mountain environment. A majority of the
District's water supply comes from the Martis Valley in the southeast portion of the service territory. The customer base is
spread over forty-six square miles and covers an elevation change from 5,800 feet to 7,500 feet. The system currently
consists of 13 wells, 215 miles of pipeline, 36 storage tanks, and 24 pump stations. This complex system is expensive to
operate, maintain, repair and replace. It is important that the department control the operating costs to minimize future
rate increases. In FY16 and FY17, the District is receiving a return on equity of the pipeline replacement and Wire to
Water efficiency programs with a reduction in total energy usage. The General Managerwill continue as the acting Water
Utility Manager.
During FY16 and FY17, the department will continue with operations and maintenance programs, system replacement
and capital projects, installation of water meters, SCADA replacement and an on -going conservation program.

GENERAL MANAGEMENT
(Water Budget)
This section will describe specific water issues within the FY16 and FY17 budget. The narrative contained in the electric
portion of the budget describes the general function and organization of the General Management. These descriptions
apply to the Water Utility also.
The largest issues facing the Water Department in FY16 and FY17 will be continued work on the water distribution
pipelines and SCADA Replacement Project. Field work for the SCADA Replacement Project started in FY13 and will
continue through several budget cycles.
The General Manager has been working with the Board, the Community, and the Public Information and Conservation
Department in developing both consumer based and system wide conservation measures. The success of these
measures has, and will continue to have a significant impact on rates and future Water Department Budget. Overall water
production is down 35% compared to 2013. Water Department revenues for FY16 and FY17 are projected to be 6% more
than the FY15 budget due to a 6% rate increase in FY16 and a 5% maximum rate increase FY17.
The Water Utility achieved a stable financial condition by planning; setting revenue; debt and reserve goals; and
implementing appropriate financial procedures to assure responsible financial management. The Vehicle Replacement
Fund was established in 2009 to finance the replacement of District vehicles without adding additional external debt. Nine
vehicles were replaced during FY14 and FY15. Five vehicles are planned for replacement during the upcoming budget
cycle.

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES
(Water Budget)
This section will describe specific water issues within the FY16 and FY17 budget. The narrative contained in the electric
section of the budget describes the general function and organization of Administrative Services, which also apply to the
Water Utility.
Beginning in FY09, residential water meters were installed. Over 96% of all customers have a meter and are being billed
volumetrically. The remaining 4% will be installed by FY18 by existing Water Utility employees.
The newly installed residential water meters identify continuous flow including malfunctioning stop -and -drain valves. Letters
have been sent to customers who have possible leaks so that they may quickly identify and correct problems. The District
has implemented custom software in FY15 called the "Water Tool" that allows customers to view their own water
consumption over the Internet to help identify leaks and monitor water conservation efforts. In FY16 we will have enhanced
this process even further with automated constant flow notifications via email.

PUBLIC INFORMATION AND CONSERVATION
(Water Budget)
This section will describe specific water conservation issues within the FY16 and FY17 budgets. The narrative contained
in the electric section of the budget describes the general function and organization of Public Information and
Conservation. These descriptions apply to the water division also.
Significant progress has been made delivering water conservation programs such as Water Efficient Toilet Rebate, Water
Efficient Toilet Exchange, Customer Water Leak Repair Rebate, and Green Partners Water programs. In addition, the
District continues to develop the Patricia S. Sutton Conservation Garden, including the new Garden Party & Seminar, and
has used this educational tool to host multiple events and educate the public on how to have beautiful landscaping and
save water.
The combined impacts of water main -line replacements, the water -meter effect, and water conservation programs have
lowered water consumption by over 30% in recent years. This dramatic reduction has allowed the District to maximize
existing infrastructure and avoid capital expenses. However, the reduced water use also means that existing and future
water conservation efforts need to be more targeted towards maximizing return on investment while addressing the
District's peak summer water use due, mostly, to customer irrigation. The well -documented California drought and the
series of Executive Orders from Governor Brown spawning a series of California State Water Resources Control Board
(SWRCB) Emergency Drought Regulations has put a strain on the department's capacity and resources.
The District is facing significant change and uncertainty regarding the Legislative and Regulatory environment at local,
State, and Federal levels. Historically, significant public outreach was conducted around the new Martis Valley
Groundwater Management Plan (GMP)/model and the collaborative effort between the partner agencies (Placer County
Water Agency, Northstar CSD, and TDPUD). Over the last 2-years, the District has actively participated in the
implementation of the Truckee River Operating Agreement (TROA), the US Bureau of Reclamations Truckee River Basin
Study, and more recently California's Sustainable Groundwater Management Act of 2014 (SGMA). All of these laws,
regulations, or studies could have significant impact on the District's water utility and our customers; and are taking an
increasing amount of the PIO and Conservation Managers capacity.
The District continues to track water related legislative and regulatory activities mainly through our membership and
participation in the California Municipal Utilities Association (CMUA) and California/Nevada American Water Works
Association (CA/NV AWWA). Key current and pending issues include the drought, groundwater regulation, California
34 Page 40 of 75
Bay/Delta Plan, the need for a new water bond or public benefits charge, emerging water quality standards, and State of
California's conservation mandates.
The FY16 and FY17 budgets reflect an increased emphasis on Legislation & Regulation, communications & outreach, and
leveraging existing programs. Outdoor irrigation remains the biggest conservation target going forward. These budgets
also reflect early signs of saturation on some of our programs and the need to fund main line replacement projects.

WATER OPERATIONS
The main objective for Water Operations is to provide an adequate, reliable and high quality water supply and
distribution system to meet current and future needs. The objective will be accomplished by maintaining and
implementing the current Water Master Plan, including the required facilities to supply current and future demands,
and by providing effective and efficient operation, maintenance and replacement programs.
The Water Department is organized into three groups: 1) Distribution system operations, maintenance and repairs;
2) Facilities operation, maintenance and repair, water quality, and treatment facilities; and 3) System engineering
and planning.
The FY16 and FY17 Budget staffs the department with a Water Utility Manager (also serving as General
Manager), a System Engineer, a Superintendent, a Senior Water Quality and Testing Inspector, an Operations
Foreman, an Operations Leadman, two Operations Service Technicians, a Distribution Foreman, a Distribution
Leadman, and Distribution Service Technicians.
The Water Department's operational, distribution, and engineering staffs are licensed by the California State Water
Resources Control Board to operate and maintain the District water system. This requires staff to participate
regularly in updated education and training to maintain water system operator certifications. Staff is also
continually trained on water system safety procedures and OSHA standards. This training ensures the workforce is
qualified and productive, and it provides safe work conditions and procedures that encourage employee growth,
productivity and retention.
The main challenges for the Operations Group in FY16 and FY17 will be the continued progress toward
completing the SCADA replacement project and water meter installation program. The department will continue
to upgrade aging and undersized water distribution mains through the Capital Pipeline Replacement Projects and
pursue the development of an additional water supply, both of which are multi -year programs.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT)
(Water Budget)
The Information Technology (IT) Department is headed by the IT/IS/GIS Operations Manager and also includes the
positions IT/GIS Analyst, IT/SCADA Engineer, and the Network & Systems Administrator position, responsible for
network, storage and personal devices. Having internal IT staff helps reduce outside contractor costs for the District's IT
needs, increase IT knowledge of systems security, and provide additional accountability and redundancy. In FY16 and
FY17, the IT/GIS Analyst position will become an unrepresented professional employee.
The highest priority for this Department is to enable the Water Department to operate faster, better, and more cost
efficiently, while providing secure access to critical control, mapping, and information systems. The departments aim is to
provide timely, relevant, and accurate information, when and where it is needed, to support sound decisions that improve
the quality, efficiency, cost, safety, and environmental footprint of the products and services the District delivers and uses.
To achieve the goals and implement the strategies in this plan, the ten guiding principles below focus on leadership and
excellence through quality of service, responsiveness, innovation, professionalism, and teamwork. These principles
require commitment not only from the District's IT professionals, but from all District employees.
1. Consult and advise department heads to drive IT initiatives according to business needs, goals, and objectives, and
developing a sound business case before making any new investment.
2. Foster interdepartmental cooperation in everything we do.
3. View IT from the perspective of the entire district and not from the perspective of individual departments.
4. Acquire, manage, and use technology resources economically and efficiently through standardized information
technology selection and implementation processes.
5. Securely hold and manage technology assets to protect private information.
6. Develop mechanisms and processes to share information easily within the organization and with customers and
partners.
7. Understand that availability and access to technology is a given, and design and build systems accordingly.
8. Aggregate, where feasible, to reduce duplication, and employ information technology that is flexible and
interoperable to respond quickly and efficiently to changing business needs.
9. Devise strategies to leverage investments in the District's existing technology.
10. Train the workforce in the skills needed to effectively use IT systems and the information they contain.
