BACKG OLHID INFORMATION: During an earlier public hearing on September 20, 2006, a representative from the Building Industry Association (SIA) requested additional time to further review the proposed Substation & Transmission System Charge and was granted this time by the City Council- EUD has provided relevant background on this matter to the BIA. Furthermore, EUD is responsible for expanding its electric system to serve new customers/development that includes transmission and substation facilities. in the short nun, existing EUD substations have the capacity to serve new developments within and outside the current city limits. In the long run, however, new substations may be needed to reliably serve city growth beyond its current boundaries. There is a trend by electric utilities to make new development responsible for much, if not all, of the cost to expand/eMend electric facilities to serve them_ Today, there is no mechanism available to EUD to assess new deveioprnentkustomers the cost of constructing new transmission lines and substation facilities that is incurred by EUD due to their electric load additions. A typical EUD substation would have two power transformers with four distribution feeders (circuits) connected to each indiOdual power tra nsfomTMr. The estimated cost of constructing a new substation and associated transmission is $7,864,500 (in 2406 dollars). Based on the effective capacity of a standard substation (48 Mega Volt -Amperes), the corresponding cost per Kilo Volt -Amperes (kVA) is computed to be $163.84. The following table shows the calculation of the cost of new substation/transmission capacity. EUD is also proposing that after adoption of the initial charge of $163.84 per kVA, this charge be revised annually beginning January 1, 2008 tamed on the average change in the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics Producer Price Indexes (PPI) for (i) Electrical Switchgear and (ii) Specialty Transformers between the PPI for the month of June of the prior two calendar years. If there is a change in this charge between the time of application for electric service and the actual payment of charges, the charge in effect at the time of payment shall apply.
