igure 1 Water Production for the month of August, is slightly down.
Water production in August 2025 declined by 1% compared to August 2024. Relative to
the three-year running average for August, production was approximately 8% lower.
This pattern aligns with ongoing customer conservation and a mild summer that
reduced outdoor irrigation demand.
System Updates
During the past month, distribution crews have addressed a number of water distribution
system main line leaks while still managing to close out several summer projects. The
Operations crew has a goal to perform full rebuilds on all pressure-reducing stations
throughout the District before January 1, 2026 to improve system reliability.

Water Operations is also prioritizing leak detection and rapid repairs to conserve our
valuable water resources. Every leak repaired prevents ongoing water loss and
supports long-term supply resiliency. The District encourages customers to report any
signs of unusual water pooling or meter activity. Prompt reporting allows the District to
respond quickly and minimize potential impacts.

Director
SUBJECT: PIO & Strategic Affairs Department Update
CARB ACF/AB 1594 Update: The California Air Resources Board (CARB) Advanced
Clean Fleets (ACF) rule continues to move through the regulatory process with the
District's joint action groups (CMUA, NCPA, and ACWA) providing joint and individual
comments on the 45-day language for AB 1594 implementation. AB 1594 was
supported by the electric, water, and wastewater utilities when passed into law and was
intended to address some of the concerns raised by utilities regarding the ACF's impact
on our ability to respond to emergencies and maintain critical infrastructure.
While AB 1594 has helped some, the ACF rule, in general, remains highly problematic
given the loss of the US EPA waiver (IOU's and —85% of the State's public truck fleets
no longer have to comply) along with the well-documented flaws of the current ACF.
The next step is the 15-day language, and we have heard that CARB staff intends to
propose a delay in the requirement for high population counties to purchase 100% zero-
emission trucks (i.e. EVs) starting January 1, 2027, to January 1, 2030. This would also
push back the requirements for low-population counties (i.e. Nevada County) to 2030 as
well. While this help, there remains significant work to make this regulation viable.
End of CA Legislative Session: The legislative session is ending with a bang
including a package of bills framed as `Energy Affordability' which included the
successful reauthorization of Cap-and-Trade (AB32) and the passage of the Pathways
legislation creating the governance structure needed to move forward with the CAISO
Extended Day Ahead Market (EDAM) and eventual regionalization.
District's 2025 Water Campaign: An on-going major focus of the District's
communications and outreach efforts has been the 2025 water campaign, which initially
focused on where the District's water comes from and the infrastructure and processes
needed to deliver service reliability and safety. The campaign is now moving towards water
rates, how to read your bill, and the value the District provides. The District has created
compelling new infographics, flyers, and digital outreach materials which all direct our
customers and community to a new District webpage (www.tapua.org/vour-waL ).
District Communications and Outreach Efforts: The District participated in the Town of
Truckee's community block party at the Train Depot on Thursday, September 18t". This
event, comprising of local agencies and non-profits who deliver services to our community,
was very well attended, and the District's booth was fully engaged for the two-hour event.
District staff are also working with Tahoe Donner Association on a feature piece for Tahoe

Donner News educating readers on who the District is and the projects/investments we
have been making in Tahoe Donner. This article builds largely upon a presentation given to
the Tahoe Donner Board by the District's General Manager on July 25, 2025. The District
has also been approached by the California Special Districts Association (CSDA), who
wants to do an article on the District's Charging Futures Forward initiative. This request was
spurred by the District's recent press release and staff are working with CSDA to provide
additional information.

FROM: Scott Crow, IT Director/CIO —Assistant General Manager
SUBJECT: Information Technology Department Update
Cybersecurity
Recent cybersecurity activity underscores the critical importance of maintaining
constant vigilance across the District's digital infrastructure. As a public organization,
the District remains a frequent target for malicious actors due to systemic challenges
such as limited funding, constrained technical expertise, and insufficient IT resources.
These vulnerabilities highlight the need for proactive security measures and sustained
investment in cybersecurity resilience.
Some recent pertinent examples include:
• August 24, 2025 - State of Nevada experienced a ransomware cyberattack that
disrupted state services across Nevada with DMV offices and state police
dispatched lines among the affected services. As of September 24, recovery of
services is still ongoing.
• July 25, 2025 — City of St. Paul, Minnesota experienced a ransomware
cyberattack that shutdown city systems disrupting many city services. As of
September 24, recovery of services is still ongoing.
• October 2024 — American Water experienced a ransomware cyberattack that
forced its business network offline affecting customer billing. While the
company's water and wastewater facilities and operations were not impacted,
customer services, administrative services and billing were disrupted. Currently,
all services are online.
Several reports from Mimecast, IBM, and Verizon have shown that 74% - 95% of
cybersecurity breaches are caused by human error.

AGENDA ITEM #8
Public Utility District m
MEETING DATE: October 1, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Jillian Steward, Director of Human Resources & Risk Management
SUBJECT: Public Hearing on the District's Workforce Vacancies, Recruitment,
and Retention Efforts
APPROVED BY:
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
a.) Conduct a Public Hearing regarding the District's Workforce Vacancies,
Recruitment, and Retention Efforts in compliance with AB 2561; and
b.) Provide feedback to staff
BACKGROUND:
To address the widespread and significant problem job vacancies in the public
sector pose to the State of California, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill 2561
(AB 2561) on September 22, 2024. AB 2561 creates new requirements for public
agencies to report before the governing board on vacant positions as well as
recruitment and retention efforts through a public hearing at least once per fiscal year. If
the governing board will be adopting an annual or multiyear budget during the fiscal
year, the presentation shall be made prior to the adoption of the final budget. As part of
the hearing, public agencies, including the District, must identify any challenges and
potential necessary changes to policies, procedures, and recruitment activities to
overcome these challenges.
If the number of budgeted job vacancies represented by a single bargaining unit meets
or exceeds 20 percent of the total number of authorized full-time positions, the public
agency shall, upon request of the recognized employee organization, include additional
information during the public hearing. This information includes total number of job
vacancies within a bargaining unit, total number of applicants, average number of days
to complete the hiring process, and opportunities to improve compensation and other
working conditions. The recognized employee organization for a bargaining unit shall
be entitled to make a presentation at the public hearing.
At the September 17, 2025 regularly scheduled Board Meeting, the Board approved the
scheduling of a Public Hearing to be held on October 1, 2025 in accordance with AB
2561 to present the Distrcit's Workforce Vacancies, Recruitment and Retention efforts.
Page 1 of 3
Page 19 of 77
ANALYSIS AND BODY:
The District maintains a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with one labor
bargaining unit, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers 1245 (IBEW 1245),
representing 53 budgeted positions with 7 vacancies, resulting in a 13% vacancy
rate. This is below the 20% threshold of the AB 2561 requirements to provide
additional information at the request of IBEW 1245. Below are the current vacancies:
3 - Journeyman Lineman
1 - Electirc Foreman
1 - Substation/Inspector Lineman
1 - Vehcile Maintenance Foreman
1 - Water Leadman
The District has historically had 2 electric crews consisting of 3 Journeyman Lineman
and 1 Electric Foreman. A third line crew was included in the FY 24/25 budget.
However, the District made a determination not to continue with this plan due to vehicle
and equipment procurement challenges. The 3 Journeyman Lineman and 1 Electric
Foreman position vacancies included in the FY24-25 budget are currently being re-
evaluated for their most effective use within the Electric Department organizational
structure.
The Substation/Inspector Lineman and Vehicle Maintenance Foreman job descriptions
are under review for any necessary job duty, job requirement or compliance updates
and the hiring process will begin upon approval from the District and IBEW 1245 of the
updated job descriptions.
The Water Leadman position was open for internal candidate applications from
9/16/2025 through 9/18/2025 in accordance with the MOU with IBEW 1245. The
District had 3 qualified internal candidates. A hiring decision has been made with an
effective date of 10/4/2026. Since this is an internal promotion, it leaves a vacancy in
the Water Department for a Water Service Technician/Technician in Training effective
10/4/2026. In preparation for this opening, the Water Service Technician in Training
has been posted for internal applications from 9/23/2025-9/25/2025, in accordance with
our MOU with IBEW 1245. The District has received 2 internal applications and will be
scheduling interviews over the next two weeks. If the District does not have successful
internal candidates, the position will be posted for external candidates to apply.
The District is confident in our current ability to hire for open positions through our
competitive wages, benefit package, and work environment. The District regularly
review policies, procedures, recruitment and retention efforts to remain competitive in
the local and utility industry labor markets, and retain our current qualified staff. In 2024
the District underwent a compensation and organizational structure study to review
current positions in the labor market and to use during negotiations of a new contract
with IBEW 1245. A new contract was approved in March 2025 which included market
wage adjustments as appropriate, cost of living adjustments, meal/expense benefit
increases, and other work condition improvements. All of which positively impacted the
Page 2 of 3
Page 20 of 77
District's ability to recruit and retain staff. The District strives to provide a good work
environment through staff development opportunities and regular feedback
opportunities through our committees on culture and safety.
Ongoing challenges to the District's ability to hire and retain employees include the high
cost of living and limited housing inventory in Truckee, as well as the availability of
qualified employees within the utility sector. These challenges become increasingly
difficult as the District continues providing a competitive wage in the same job market
as investor-owned utilities, while managing increasing operational costs. To address
these current and future challenges, the District has embraced a "grow your own" local
workforce approach through our relationships with students at all levels within our
school district, seasonal job opportunities, internships, apprenticeships, and the District
awarded its first TDPUD Workforce Scholarships earlier this year.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:
District Code 1 .05.020 Objectives:
1. Responsibly serve the public.

AGENDA ITEM #9
r P, I
Public Utility District
MEETING DATE: October 1, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Mike Swanson, Director of Electric Engineering & Operations
SUBJECT: Consideration of the Procurement for Electric Distribution Line
Sensors
APPROVED BY:
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the General Manager to execute a Material Purchase and Service Contract
with Gridware for electric utility distribution system line sensors in an amount not-to-
exceed $770,000
BACKGROUND:
As electric utilities face growing operational and environmental challenges, including
wildfire risk, aging infrastructure, and increased customer expectations for reliability, the
use of distribution system line sensors has become a key tool in modern grid
management.
Line sensors provide real-time visibility into distribution system conditions, enabling
utilities to move from reactive to proactive operations. The technology supports the
detection of hazardous conditions such as arcing, conductor-to-conductor contact
(slap), vegetation contact, and high impedance faults. Modern line sensors can also
monitor physical as well as electrical data points, enhancing situational awareness and
enabling utilities to mitigate risk, improve safety, and accelerate outage restoration.
Across the industry, line sensor deployment is widely recognized as a best practice for
wildfire mitigation and grid modernization. Utilities in high wildfire exposure regions use
these devices to reduce ignition risks and to support wildfire safety de-energization
operations, where verification of system safety is required before re-energization.
Staff identified operational, reliability, and safety benefits for the District's deployment of
line sensors, including:
• Wildfire Risk Reduction: Real-time detection of abnormal conditions such as
arcing, downed conductors, vegetation, and animal contact
Page 1 of 4
Page 22 of 77
• Expedited Preemptive Power Shutoff (PPS) Restoration: During wildfire safety
de-energization events, sensors improve visibility and reduce patrol scope,
enabling faster safe re-energization
• Routine Outage Management: Fault localization capabilities reduce field crew
search times, accelerating service restoration and improving customer
satisfaction
• Operational Insight: Monitoring of load, voltage, and power quality provides
valuable data for system planning, load balancing, and preventative
maintenance
On August 12, 2025, the District issued a Request for Bids for line sensors. One
addendum was released during the bidding period to clarify technical specifications.
The bid opening was held on September 4, 2025, and the District received a single
responsive bid from Gridware totaling $770,000. Given the limited number of
manufacturers capable of meeting the District's specifications, receiving only one bid
was not unexpected.
To further support the District's risk reduction strategies and modernization objectives,
staff recommends that the Board authorize the General Manager to execute a Material
Purchase Contract with Gridware for the procurement of distribution system line
sensors for the remainder of FY2025. The proposed contract would begin upon
execution in late September 2025 and end December 31, 2025, with an option to
extend annually through 2029.
At the September 17, 2025 Board Meeting, the Board deferred this action item to the
October 1, 2025 Board Meeting in order to provide Staff additional time to work with
Gridware in providing clarifying technical details.
ANALYSIS AND BODY:
In response to feedback by the Board regarding Gridware's proposal, staff reviewed the
contract with Gridware. Based on this review and discussion, staff received the
following responses.
Gridware's Gridscope devices are designed for a service life exceeding 10 years,
validated through accelerated aging tests, and are covered by a five-year warranty
against defects. Gridware has reported no systemic device failures, and any isolated
issues have been addressed under warranty. Gridware has also indicated a willingness
to negotiate a longer-term warranty, though such an extension would likely come at an
additional cost. Staff does not recommend the option of an additional warranty.
If Gridware were to cease operations, the devices would continue performing their core
sensing and hazard identification functions, ensuring no immediate disruption to
operations. The District would retain full ownership of its data, with insights delivered in
standard formats that can be integrated into other systems. The hardware and software
are built on open standards, making it possible to transition support and services to
alternate providers if required. Gridware is backed by stable financial institutions
Page 2 of 4
Page 23 of 77
including Sequoia Capital and JPMorgan and maintains a diversified customer base.
These factors significantly reduce the likelihood of any disruption to service.
Upgrades are delivered via Over-The-Air (OTA) updates at no additional cost under the
standard agreement. Hardware costs are $550 per unit, with the remaining purchase
price covering monitoring, communications, software updates, and tariffs. Pricing is not
dependent on purchase quantity, and no minimum purchase is required. Finally,
Gridware reported no anticipated supply chain or procurement challenges and
maintains inventory that exceeds the District's expected demand.
From a financial perspective, staff confirms that sufficient funds exist in the FY25
Capital Plan to cover the $770,000 procurement without the need to draw on
contingency funds. Additionally, the Gridscope Line Sensor project is included in the
FY26-27 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), ensuring continuity of funding for future
deployments and long-term integration into the District's grid modernization strategy.
The following table provides details on the proposed and future purchases.

AGENDA ITEM #10
Public Utility District m
MEETING DATE: October 1, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Mike Swanson, Director of Electric Engineering & Operations
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Construction Services Contract for Pole and
Anchor Hole Digging for Electric Utility System Hardening
Z_
APPROVED BY:
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the General Manager to execute a construction services contract with R.K.
Contractors in the amount of $484,210.00 for civil excavation services to support the
Electric Utility System Hardening Project.
BACKGROUND:
The District continues to advance its System Hardening Pilot Project along Northwoods
Boulevard as part of its broader system hardening and wildfire mitigation strategy. This
effort is essential to enhancing community safety, improving system reliability, and
strengthening resiliency.
In support of this initiative, Staff solicited bids for civil excavation services to perform
pole and anchor hole digging in preparation for upcoming construction activities.
Historically, the District has found it more cost-effective to contract out this type of
excavation work, thereby enabling District crews to concentrate their efforts on the
more technical and critical functions of power line construction and electrical
installation.
The District has been performing excavation under a Time and Equipment (T&E)
contract. While this structure provided flexibility, it often resulted in unpredictable costs
with variability depending on crew size, hours worked, and equipment utilization. For
the current project, the District is transitioning to a lump sum bid, which eliminates the
uncertainty of daily T&E charges and provides cost certainty for the full scope of work.
This approach ensures better budget control and allows District personnel to remain
focused on critical power line construction tasks, directly supporting productivity and
timely project delivery.
ANALYSIS AND BODY:
The District reviewed 4 bids, of which 4 were found to be responsive. Following a
competitive bid process conducted in compliance with District procurement policies and
Page 1 of 3
Page 26 of 77
the Public Contract Code, staff recommends awarding a Lump Sum (Fixed-Price)
contract to R.K. Contractors in the amount of $484,210.00 as the lowest responsive
and responsible bidder.
Bids received were as follows:
Bidder 1: EDP (Location: Templeton, CA) — $749,884.33
Bidder 2: Teichert Line Services (Location: Elverta, CA) — $1,128126.00
Bidder 3: R.K. Contractors (Location: Verdi, NV) — $484,210.00
Bidder 4: Ruppert Inc. (Location: Truckee, CA) — $534,272.00
The Lump Sum contract model provides greater cost certainty, ensures clearly defined
deliverables, and avoids the variability inherent in T&E or unit-based agreements. The
bid received from R.K. Contractors is competitive when compared with historic T&E
costs for excavation work, while also ensuring that high-quality standards and safety
requirements are maintained.
Key factors supporting this recommendation include:
• Competitive pricing relative to historical T&E expenditures;
• Lowest responsive and responsible bid consistent with District procurement
requirements;
• Qualified contractor with demonstrated capability in civil excavation services;
• Enhanced staff efficiency by allowing District crews to remain focused on power
line construction;
• Predictable project costs under a Lump Sum (Fixed-Price) agreement; and
• Alignment with approved FY24-25 Capital Improvement Plan and Operating
Budget
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:
District Code 1 .05.020 Objectives:
1. Responsibly serve the public.
2. Provide a healthy and safe work environment for all District employees.
4. Provide reliable and high quality electric supply and distribution system to meet
current and future needs.
6. Manage the District in an effective, efficient and fiscally responsible manner.
District Code 1 .05.030 Goals:
1. Manage for Financial Stability and Resiliency
3. Engage with our customers and communities in a welcoming and transparent way to
identify opportunities.
4. Modernize the utility and add value to our communities through collaboration and
innovation.
5. Developing an inclusive culture drives organizational integration and success.

AGENDA ITEM #11
Public Utility District m
MEETING DATE: October 1, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Jared Carpenter, Director of Electric Power Supply
SUBJECT: Consideration for Approval of a Professional Services Contract for
required Greenhouse Gas Verification Services in accordance with
the California Air Resources Board's Mandatory Greenhouse Gas
Reporting Regulation (Subarticle 4, Sections 95130 through 95133).
APPROVED BY:
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the General Manager to execute a professional services agreement with
Rincon Consultants, Inc. for the required Greenhouse Gas Verification Services in
accordance with the California Air Resources Board's Mandatory Greenhouse Gas
Reporting Regulation in the amount of $18,000 plus a ten percent change order
allowance of $1,800 for a total authorization not to exceed $19,800.
BACKGROUND:
Under California's Regulation for the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas
Emissions (title 17, California Code of Regulations (CCR), sections 95100-95157)
(MRR), industrial sources, fuel suppliers, and electricity importers must report their
annual GHG emissions to the California Air Resources Board (CARB). For reporters
subject to the California Cap-and-Trade Program, submitted data are verified by a
CARB-accredited independent third-party verifier. The Regulation for the MRR was
originally approved in 2007 and revised in 2010, 2012, 2013, and 2014. Amendments to
MRR were approved by the Office of Administrative Law on March 29, 2019.
California GHG emissions data reported between 2008 and 2010 were subject to
slightly different applicability, calculation, methodology, and verification requirements.
Beginning with GHG emissions data reported in 2011, new reporting sectors were
included and CARB included changes in methodologies to harmonize with the U.S.
EPA reporting regulation. In addition, CARB included collection of additional data to
support the Cap-and-Trade Program and required annual third-party verification for
GHG emissions data. When comparing data reported for years 2011 and onward with
historical 2008-2010 data, there will be differences in the facilities listed, as well as the
emissions and other data due to changes in methods and applicability.
Related to the CARB MRR report for 2024, the report was submitted by staff, and a
Page 1 of 3
Page 29 of 77
third party verifier was hired as required by the law. This verifier was chosen from the
approved list of vendors for required Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Verification Services in
accordance with the CARB MRR from Subarticle 4, Sections 95130 through 95133 of
the applicable law.
ANALYSIS AND BODY:
TDPUD imports the majority of its power supply from outside California. Importing that
generation requires additional reporting compared to other electric utilities in California.
This creates reporting complexities due to TDPUD's unique location in California. These
complexities have increased the verification costs.
CARB has Mandatory Reporting Regulation (MRR) guidelines for utilities that import
power. One of these guidelines allows TDPUD to use metered data to report power
delivered through imports instead of using the more common electronic interchange
schedule (e-Tag). The second guideline TDPUD uses (where most electric utilities do
not) allows for the use of an internal GHG Inventory Plan to explain the sources of
carbon emission contribution to California. These methods have been used by TDPUD
for many years. However, the 2022 and 2023 reports resulted in the third party verifier
stating: "the reporter was unable to provide supporting documentation, calculations, or
explanations and did not make corrections. Therefore, this issue was not resolved for
the RY2023, resulting in the error of reported covered emissions exceeding 5% of the
total facility's emissions per MRR 95131(b)(12)(A), and it is also a correctable error per
95131(b)(9). Consequently, the Adverse Verification statement was issued per MRR
95131(c)(4)." Due to the adverse impact statement, use of the GHG Inventory Plan, and
a mandatory in-person visit in 2025 for the 2024 report, additional time was required to
complete the verification process, which increased the forecaster costs from $14,500 to
$18,000.
In May 2025, TDPUD staff requested proposals from multiple third-party verifiers from
the CARB approved vendor list. Three firms responded, including Rincon Consultants,
who provided a proposal, Locus Tech, who chose not to provide a quote, and Ramboll,
who also declined to provide a proposal due to "not having the staff to perform this task
at the time." Since the proposal was less than $15,000, staff executed a special
services contract with Rincon based on Section 3.08.050.4 of District Code that allows
agreements for special services if "the General Manager determines that no proposals
are necessary, then he/she may enter into an agreement for the special services up to
his/her Board authorized spending limit. Should the amount exceed the General
Manager's spending limit, approval to enter into an agreement will be brought to Board
of Directors for their consideration."
The proposal from Rincon Consultants was for $14,500 (attached), and funded by G.L.
Account: 1.6.555.00.588. During the project, additional time was needed due to the
adverse impact statement and site visit. The added cost increased the proposal from
$14,500 to $18,000. Since the increased cost exceeds the $15,000 limit in Section
3.08.050.4 of District Code, staff is requesting Board approval for the $18,000 plus a
10% contingency for a total of$19,800. The project is substantially complete and while
there could be further questions from CARB, we don't expect further communication
Page 2 of 3
Page 30 of 77
that will increase the expense over $18,000.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:
District Code 1 .05.020 Objectives:
1. Responsibly serve the public.
6. Manage the District in an effective, efficient and fiscally responsible manner.
District Code 1 .05.030 Goals:
1. Manage for Financial Stability and Resiliency
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommended approval amount of$19,800 is a component of 'other' costs within
purchased power, specifically GL account 1.6.555. The purchase power budget is
$15,450,000 for FY2025 and, year to date, actual costs have been running under
budget. This item does not have a material impact on purchased power costs.

Subject: Proposalto Perform Third-Parry Verification of 2024 Electric Power Entity Emissions
Report for Truckee Donner Public Utility District
Dear Mr. Carpenter,
Rincon Consultants, Inc. (Rincon)is pleased to submit the attached proposal to provide Greenhouse
Gas(GHG)Verification Services for Truckee Donner Public Utility District(Truckee Donner PUD)for the
in accordance with the California Air Resources Board's(CARB)Mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting
Regulation (MRR) (Subarticle 4, Sections 95130 through 95133).
Rincon is established as one of the top Verification Bodies in the State accredited to conduct third
party verification services under both the MRR and Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS)regulations,with
over 15 years of verification experience and having verified over 1 billion metric tons of emissions
since MRR inception. Rincon has assembled a team of highly skilled professionals who combine
extensive technical qualifications and experience with carbon/ GHG accounting, carbon intensity and
lifecycle assessment(LCA) development, GHG Verification, and engineering. Our team specializes in
verifying GHG emissions at electric power entities (EPE), natural gas suppliers, refineries, oil and gas
facilities, industrial manufacturing facilities, alternative fuel facilities, and cogeneration facilities
throughout California. Rincon is experienced with verifying large and small EPEs including all PG&E
EPE and energy generation facilities.Additionally, we are familiar with workingwith utilities in Nevada
County was we are currently analyzing GHG emissions and developing energy policies as part of the
County' Climate Action and Adaptation Plan.This proposal outlines Rincon's proposed scope of work,
cost, and schedule.
Information about Rincon's general qualifications can be viewed at www.rinconconsultants.com.
Additional information about Rincon's qualifications can be provided on request. If you have any
questions regardingthis proposal, please contact Erica Linard, G HG/LCFS Lead Verifier, at 805-586-
3183. Thank you for the opportunity to assist with this assignment.
Project Overview
Truckee Donner PUD is an electric power entity located at 11570 Donner Pass Road, Truckee,
California. Rincon understands thatwhile located in California,Truckee Donner PUD imports specified
and unspecified power out of state electricity with a majority comingfrom Utah and utilizes renewable
energy credits(RECs). Rincon understands that some RECs purchased bythe entity are "non-bucket"
meaning that while renewable they do not fit within California's definition of renewable that can be
used to meet Renewable Portfolio Standard requirements. Additionally, Rincon understands that
unlike most California public utilities, imported electricity is tracked via meter data rather than with
the typical North American Electric Reliability Corporation Tag (E-Tag). As an electric power entity,
Truckee Donner PUD reports GHG emissions perthe requirements included in Sections 95111 of the
MRR. Rincon assumesthat in general,the GHG emissions calculations will be conducted using correct
www.rinconconsultants.com
Page 32 of 77
Truckee Donner Public Utilities District
Third-Party Verification of 2024 Electric Power Entity Emissions Report
formulas and procedures as specified in the MRR.
For the purposes of this proposal, Rincon has identified a work program that will complete the
verification process for the MRR GHG Emissions 2024 Report before the MRR August 10th Verification
deadline. The following provides a brief description of the anticipated tasks and when they would
occur, consistent with Rincon's methodologythat would be used to provide verification services for
Truckee Donner PUD.
Task 1: Conflict of Interest (COI) Statement and Notice of
Verification (NOV) Services
The initial task in this work program is to provide CARB with the required evaluation of any potential
conflict of interest(C01)between Rincon and Truckee Donner PUD. Rincon will submit the C01/NOVS
forms to CARB immediately after receiving authorization to proceed from Truckee Donner PUD.Rincon
has already conducted an internal C01 review of consulting services completed by the firm and has
confirmed with CARB that we have not provided any services that would constitute a C01 or would
preclude Rincon from verifying the 2024 Truckee Donner PUD MRR Report.
Task 2: Project Kick-off and Initial Data Request
Rincon proposes to host a virtual kick-off meeting that would include Rincon's Lead Verifier, one
additional Rincon team member. Prior to the initial kick-off meeting, Rincon will provide a data request
log that will be used to assist in gathering and tracking the information Rincon will need to develop
facility-specific Verification Plan and detailed Sampling Plan.
Task 3: Audit
Subtask 3.1: Document Review and Verification Plan
Rincon will review the information provided by Truckee Donner PUD and prepared a Verification Plan.
Document review may also include review of written procedures, monitoring protocols, compliance
records, licenses and permits, registers, control equipment, calibration and testing records,training
processes, monitoring data, and quality control and quality assurance policies.
Subtask 3.2: Site Visits and Interviews
Section 95131(b)(3)of the MRR requires a strategic site visit to each facility be conducted by Rincon
each year full verification is required. Because there would be a change in verification body for the
2024 reportingyear and 2024 isthe first year of thefifth compliance period,afull verification including
a site visit is required per the MRR. Rincon has already confirmed with CARB that only the facility
headquarters in Truckee would need to be visited. During the site visits, Rincon will need full access
to the facility and records.'
Subtask 3.3: Sampling Plan
Rincon is required by CARB to develop and implement a Sampling Plan that must be retained for a
period of ten years and that is subject to review by CARB (Section 95131(b)(7)).The Sampling Plan
will be based on a strategic analysis developed from document reviews,the site visit, and interviews
'The cost included within this proposal assumes a 6 hour site visit day at the Truckee Donner PUD headquarters,8
hours of travel time for the Lead Verifier to attend from their respective office,and cost for lodging over one night.
2

Truckee Donner Public Utilities District
Third-Party Verification of 2024 Electric Power Entity Emissions Report
to assess the nature and scale of the verification services.
Subtask 3.4: Data Checks
To determine the reliability of the submitted data (Cal e-GGRT) Report, Rincon will use data checks
focused first on the largest intensity and the most uncertain estimates, as identified bythe Sampling
Plan. For the data checks, Rincon will provide a qualitative risk and uncertainty assessment of
emissions data. If applicable, the Sampling Plan and appropriate data checks may be expanded to
include a more detailed data review.
Task 4: Findings, Verification Report, Verification Opinion, and
Lead Review
Based on the results of the audit, Rincon will determine whether there is reasonable assurance that
the emissions data report is free of material misstatements and the reported facility emissions are
within five percent accuracy. Rincon will keep a log of issues identified during verification activities
that may affect determinations of material misstatement and nonconformance, and how those issues
were resolved.
Deliverables
• Information request
• Verification Plan, Sampling Plan (draft and final)
• Log of Issues (1 round)
• Verification Report including Verification Opinion (draft and final)
• CARB Verification Statements
Assumptions
• We assume that all Truckee Donner PUD data is confidential,and Rincon has a strict cyber security
policy and protective measures that are adhered to throughout the verification process.
• Rincon assumes that the appropriate equipment will be available and Truckee Donner PUD staff
with knowledge of the daily operations and responsible for compilation of the necessary data will
be available during the site visit. If the necessarystaff or equipment are not available during the
scheduled site visit and additional site visits or interviews are necessary to complete the
verification,theywill be completed only upon written authorization in accordance with ourstandard
fee schedule.
• Based on our understanding of the facility,we have budgeted for the verification of up to 15 data
samples, primarily focused on meter data and REC contracts as we understand that the entity has
no e-Tags. If we are required expand the number of samples due to identified errors in the data or
calculations or if requested by CARB requires, the additional required data checks will be
completed only upon written authorization in accordance with our standard fee schedule.
• In the event that a misstatement or nonconformance is found, prior to providing an adverse
verification statement to CARB, in conformance with §95131(c)(4), the log of issues will be
submitted to Truckee Donner PUD to modify and correct the data report.
• As part of this cost estimate we have budgeted for two rounds of LOI revisions.Additional changes
will be completed only upon written authorization in accordance with our standard fee schedule.
3
Page 34 of 77
Truckee Donner Public Utilities District
Third-Party Verification of 2024 Electric Power Entity Emissions Report
• The draft Verification Report and findings will be independently reviewed by one of Rincon's Lead
Verifiers who, as required, will not be involved in the prior facility verification services. Rincon's
Lead Independent Reviewer will attest to their independent review on behalf of Rincon and their
concurrence with the verification findings.
• Once the Verification Plan, Sampling Plan, and Verification Report are reviewed and approved by
Truckee Donner PUD, Rincon will uploaded the verification statements onto Cal e-GGRT. Upon
provision of the verification statement to CARB,the data report will be considered final, and no
changes will be made.
• We have scheduled the final submission of the verification statement for the facility for the MRR
report prior to August loth,given a start date week of June 2nd after the report has been submitted
to CARB.This assumption is based on the timely delivery of data, data corrections as necessary,
and response to LOIs. We assume the following regarding schedule:
o Data will be provided to Rincon within two weeks of issuing the initial data request.
o Rincon will complete initial data checks within two weeks of receiving the requested
data
o L01 responses will be provided by Truckee Donner PUD within 3 business days of
Rincon issuing an L01.
• As required by MRR Section 95131(c)(4), in such an instance that Rincon may issue a potential
adverse verification statement, Rincon will notify Truckee Donner PUD and provide 14 days for
Truckee Donner PUD to modify the report to correct any material misstatements or
nonconformances identified. Rincon will notify CARB and Truckee Donner PUD of the potential of
an adverse verification statement at least 14 days prior to the MRR deadline (August loth).
• If changes to the reports are identified, the finalized MRR Cal-eGGRT report and calculation
workbooks will be submitted and provided to Rincon no later than July 25th.This is necessaryto
allow Rincon the necessarytime to completefinal data reviews,updatethe Verification reportand
conduct the Independent Review within the CARB verification deadline.
• Rincon has budgeted time to revise each delivered document based on one consolidated set of
comments.Additional revisions would be made will be completed only upon written authorization
in accordance with our standard fee schedule (attached).
• Rincon's verification services are not intended to provide consulting services for the reports.
Cost
Rincon will provide verification services for Truckee Donner PUD,in accordance withthe MRR and with
our proposed scope of services,for an estimated cost of$11,500.Rincon's scope of work is designed
to adhere to every step of the verification process as required and ensure compliance with MRR
Section 95131 (Requirements of Verification Services). Consistent with the MRR regulation we
anticipate this project will be initiated week of June 2nd and the verification process will be completed
by the respective deadlines for MRR (August loth).The project will be billed across four progressive
invoices, each representing 25% of the lump sum total.
Please note that tasks outside of the proposed budget will be completed on a time and material basis
in accordance with Rincon's standard fee schedule. Therefore, we recommend also establishing a
$3,000 contingency to cover costs that are outside of Rincon's control. This offer for professional
services will remain in effect for a period of 15 days from the date of this quote. During this period,
questions regardingour scope of services may be directed the Project Manager, Erica Linard (Jensen),
elinard@rinconconsultants.com. To authorize this proposal, please sign and return a copy of the
provided contract. Thank you for your consideration and for this opportunity to support your project.

AGENDA ITEM #15
Public Utility District m
MEETING DATE: October 1, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Jared Carpenter, Director of Electric Power Supply
SUBJECT: Consideration of Adopting Resolution 2025-26 Approving the
Submission and Attesting to the Veracity of the 2024 Power Source
Disclosure Report and Power Content Label
APPROVED BY:
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution 2025-26 approving the submission and attesting to the veracity of the
2024 Power Source Disclosure Report and Power Content Label.
BACKGROUND:
California Senate Bill (SB) 1305, approved in 1997, directs all California retail suppliers
of electricity to disclose to consumers the sources of energy used to provide the electric
service in an accurate and easy to understand manner. The SB 1305 Report is better
known as the Power Source Disclosure (PSD) Report. The District submits an annual
PSD Report to the California Energy Commission (CEC) by June 1st of each year. The
information contained in the PSD Report is subsequently used to prepare the annual
Power Content Label (PCL) using a PCL template provided to all utilities each year by
the CEC. The PCL is made available to our customers around September of each year,
and is posted on the District's and the CEC's website.
In 2017, the CEC regulation implementing SB 1305 was updated with important
changes that directly affected all electric utilities. The changes included a provision that
requires utilities to engage a third-party certified public accountant (CPA) to perform an
audit to verify the specific purchases and self-consumption of energy by fuel type. The
regulation includes an exemption from the audit requirement for publicly owned electric
utilities (POUs), if the governing board of the POU approves the submission and
veracity of the reports sent to the CEC.
ANALYSIS AND BODY:
District staff has compiled the data for the 2024 PSD based on the information provided
and verified by our electric suppliers, including Utah Associated Municipal Power
Systems (UAMPS), Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) and Western
Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC). In addition, the District contracts with a third-
party verifier to prepare a report for all electricity transactions, and submits this report
Page 1 of 2
Page 64 of 77
annually to California Air Resources Board (CARB) in compliance with State regulations
and CARB Greenhouse Gas Emissions reporting requirements. Staff have further
reviewed this information and are confident in the accuracy of the information being
reported.
The proposed Resolution 2025-26 approves the 2024 PSD Report and PCL submission
and provides an attestation on the veracity of the reports, as required by the CEC for
exemption from the third-party CPA audit requirement. The 2024 PCL is included as
Exhibit A.
The 2024 PCL (Exhibit A) lists the total eligible renewable percentage of 55%, 5%
categorized as "Other" that represents the non-carbon emitting power from the VEYO
heat recovery plant, and the total percentage of retail sales covered by retired
unbundled renewable energy credits (RECs) as 24%. The District has a diverse
portfolio of renewable resources, including hydroelectric, landfill gas, wind, and heat
recovery generation. Most of these resources include the REC attributes transferred to
the District in accordance with the energy generated, and are included in the total
renewable energy percentage of 55%. However, several resources, including
Stampede Hydroelectric, and Veyo Heat Recovery Projects, come with a partial number
of RECs, or no RECs at all. Since these are RPS eligible and/or carbon free resources,
the District purchases unbundled RECs to supply the REC attribute lacking from these
resources, representing 24% of retail sales as shown in the PCL. In looking at the PCL,
it is accurate to explain that TDPUD exceeded the state's goals with 55% RPS eligible
energy, plus another 24% representing offsets of other energy. The 5% from "Other"
should not be added in as well because it is included in the District's volentary action of
adding more green energy in the 24%.
The District's achievement of 79% for 2024 is about 25% higher than the 2023 value.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:
District Code 1 .05.020 Objectives:
1. Responsibly serve the public.
5. Manage the District in an environmentally sound manner.
District Code 1 .05.030 Goals:
1. Manage for Financial Stability and Resiliency
2. Environmental Stewardship: Create a sustainable resilient environment for all our
communities.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with approving the submission and attesting to the
veracity of the 2024 Power Source Disclosure Report and Power Content Label.

MEETING DATE: October 1, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Jared Carpenter, Director of Electric Power Supply
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2025-27 Authorizing the Fremont Solar
and Battery Project Transaction Schedule with UAMPS
Z_
APPROVED BY:
Brian C. Wright, General Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution 2025-27 authorizing TDPUD's involvement in the Fremont Solar and
Battery Project Transaction Schedule and auxiliary agreements as needed with Utah
Associated Municipal Power Systems.
BACKGROUND:
Power supplies delivered to Truckee come from a variety of sources, including
generation where TDPUD owns a portion of the project, purchase power agreements
from specific generators, pooled purchase power agreements not from specific
generators, and market purchases to meet final needs. The California Renewable
Portfolio Standard (RPS) requires 44% of the energy serving Truckee to come from
renewable energy resources by 2024, 60% 2030, and 100% carbon-free by 2045. In
2024, TDPUD met 55% of its energy needs from renewable energy sources. Therefore,
TDPUD is on track to meet its energy requirements but needs to continue adding
energy resources that help meet these regulations, delivers energy at optimal times of
the day, and is cost effective for TDPUD customers.
As part of the ongoing need for added generation, Truckee has worked with Utah
Associated Municipal Power Systems (UAMPS) and some of its other members to
obtain power through a PPA from the Fremont Solar and Battery Project. The total
project consists of a 99 megawatt alternating current (MWac) solar photovoltaic
generation facility coupled with a 49.5 megawatt (MW) / 198 megawatt-hour (MWh)
battery energy storage system (BESS) located in Iron County, Utah. The combined
project will deliver clean energy and grid flexibility through solar generation and four-
hour battery dispatch capability.
Fremont Solar and Battery will be the first energy and storage generation project in the
TDPUD power supply portfolio. TDPUD currently receives power from one solar array
(Red Mesa) which started generating power in 2023. Fremont Solar and BESS align
Page 1 of 3
Page 69 of 77
with TDPUD's integrated resource plan (IRP), completed in 2023, that had a
recommendation of adding solar plus storage projects by 2027.
ANALYSIS AND BODY:
TDPUD is a member of UAMPS, who on behalf of its members is working to develop
generation projects for selection by each member in consideration of cost, timeline, and
technology. For this project, UAMPS is entering into a 25-year solar and battery
purchase power agreement (PPA) with Fremont Solar, LLC on behalf of participating
members. It is structured through the Master Firm Power Supply Agreement, with a
dedicated transaction schedule for the Fremont Solar PPA Project. The Commercial
Operation Date (COD) of both the solar and battery systems is expected to come online
by December 31, 2027, with guaranteed delivery by June 30, 2028. Delays to the COD
will result in damages of$21,970 per day to the developer, with additional provisions for
solar delays between $17,643 and $57,582/day.
TDPUD uses the majority of its energy in non-daytime hours, making the most
desirable energy supply from generation capable of outputting energy in the early
mornings and evenings. Today, these sources are difficult to find, but recently, pairing a
grid scale battery to a solar array allows variation in the output of energy to non-daylight
times. TDPUD is also subject to the California RPS, with a requirement of delivering
60% of its energy portfolio from renewable sources by 2030. Adding a solar energy
array helps TDPUD comply with the RPS, and ensures stable energy prices. Adding a
BESS to the solar array helps shift the energy production to evening and morning hours
when TDPUD is more exposed to volatile market prices. Staff is recommending a
1.0101% share of the 99 MWac of this project.
UAMPS will schedule all energy pursuant to the terms and conditions of the PPA and
will deliver to TDPUD its Entitlement Share from the Project. Transmission charges will
be included in the UAMPS monthly bills in alignment with applicable tariffs allowing
wheeling of the power through the PacificCorp system and into the NV Energy system
and assignment to TDPUD. Staff will perform annual reporting to the California Energy
Commission (CEC) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) in order to comply
with the RPS, GHG, and other required reporting.
Adoption of the proposed resolution (Attachment 1) would in turn require execution of
the Exhibit A agreements (Attachment 2) representing the District's commitment to this
project.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:
District Code 1 .05.020 Objectives:
1. Responsibly serve the public.
4. Provide reliable and high quality electric supply and distribution system to meet
current and future needs.
5. Manage the District in an environmentally sound manner.
6. Manage the District in an effective, efficient and fiscally responsible manner.
Page 2 of 3
Page 70 of 77
District Code 1 .05.030 Goals:
1. Manage for Financial Stability and Resiliency
2. Environmental Stewardship: Create a sustainable resilient environment for all our
communities.
4. Modernize the utility and add value to our communities through collaboration and
innovation.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Fremont Solar and Storage Project will come online by June 30, 2028. TDPUD has
a 1 MW share which is about 1 percent of total annual energy requirements. Pricing for
the project includes:
• $35.45 per MWH for the solar facility;
• (i) $13.50/kW-month;
• (ii) the Incremental BESS Tariff Cost divided by $1,000,000 and multiplied by
$0.08/kW-month, rounded to the closest $0.01/kW-month; and
• each value includes no escalation; provided that if the sum of (i) and (ii) exceeds
the BESS Price Cap, then the BESS Price shall equal the BESS Price Cap for
BESS
The current total estimated power supply cost in 2028 is $85.20 per MWh. Therefore,
the Fremont Solar and Storage project is not expected to have a negative impact on the
TDPUD budget. Energy costs vary based on the output of the generator, and the
market prices settle at hourly (or less) price intervals. There are periods during the day
when solar pricing can be very low, and even negative, representing a potential risk of
Fremont Solar curtailing power generation and thereby require TDPUD to purchase
power from market resources that are often less expensive but are not renewable in
compliance with California regulations. However, meeting compliance with the RPS is
not negatively impacted by this project due to the District's diverse renewable portfolio,
allowing for occasional deficiencies in specific generation. In addition, pairing a battery
with the solar array allows for the solar energy to be stored in the battery instead of
selling into the power grid at a poor price or needing to curtail the solar array.
Annually, this project is expected to cost TDPUD about $300,000 or about 2% of the
TDPUD power supply expenses.
