HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - November 19, 1997 (66)AGENDA TITLE: Western Area Power Administration Maintenance
Agreement and Associated Amendment
MEETING DATE: November 19, 1997
PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt the attached Resolution and authorizeity
Manager to sign Contract No. 96 -SNR -00110 (Agreement) with the
Western Area Power Administration (Western) and Bureau of
Reclamation and Contract Amendment No.1 for the funding of Operation
and Maintenance for the Central Valley Project (CVP). Copies of the
Agreement and Amendment No.1 are attached.
BACKGROUND: Currently Western customers such as Lodi fund operation and maintenance
of CVP power generating projects as part of Western power billing charges.
Monies collected, however, still must be appropriated each year for these
purposes by Congress as part of the federal budget process. Past Congressional underfunding has resulted in the
recent extensive maintenance and repair work which had to be performed at the Shasta facility. As a separate
contract for operation and maintenance funding among Western, the Bureau of Reclamation and Western's
customers, the Agreement is designed to better designate and insure funds collected from Western's customers go
toward their intended purpose.
Amendment No. 1 makes certain articles of the General Power Contract Provisions, effective August 15, 1995, a part
of the Agreement.
FUNDING: No change. The impact of the Agreement and Amendment No. 1 will be to further unbundle
Western's power billing charges.
