Fontes NCPA Service Schedule., PG&E-NCPA Interruptible Transmission Service Contract If you are interested in obtaining BPA/Northwest energy, enclosed, for approval by your governing body, is the revised form. of the Service Schedule, dated May. 15, 1981, which was approvec370F transmit -W to PG&E at the May Conmissi an meeting. Upon approval of this Service Schedule by your governtng body, please return one executed copy to the NCPA, attention Gail -Sipple. By letter of May 27, 1981 from PG&E to Mr. Grimshaw (enclosed), Mr. Elmer Nall states in the first paragraph that PG&E accepts the revised Service S'chedule.. As some of our members are aware, NCPA, Alameda, Lodi, and Santa Clara (with the help of R. W. Beck)- have been attempting to place an "order" for about 80 to -90 MW of BPA surplus energy/capacity every day since Monday, June 8, 1981. BPA has had ample power for sale, but on each of these days, PG&E had no transmission capacity available. We expect this condition to con- tinue until June 21; although we will be trying to schedule a "partial order" every day in any case. 545-81 #7620A NCPA SERVICE SCHEDULE, PG&E - NCPA INTERRUPTIBLE TRANSMISSION SERVICE CONTRACT This Agreement, herein "Service Schedule", by and between NOkTHERN CALIFORNIA POWER AGENCY, a joint powers agency of the State of California created and functioning under Government Code section 6500, herein "NCPA" and its undersigned member or members, hereinafter referred to individually as the "Participating Member", witnesseth: WHEREAS, NCPA has entered into an "Interruptible Transm-ission Service Contract", herein "Transmission Contract" with Pacific Gas and Electric Company, here- inafter PG&E, under date of April 14, 1981, wnerein PG&E will provide transmission service under certain conditions for interruptible energy purchased by NCPA and its members from a utility or public agency in the Pacific Northwest, herein "Interruptible Supplier"; and WHEREAS, the Participating Member desires-NCPA to request PG&E to transmit such interruptible energy which such member, or NCPA for such member's account, has arranged to purchase, herein called "Narttest Energy", a copy of which purchase arrangement is attached here -to a's Exhibit "A"; now therefore the parties hereto agree as follows: Section 1.
