AGENDA TITLE: Personal Services Contract with Power Engineers, Inc. ($8,500)
MEETING DATE: November 6, 1996
SUBMITTED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the Electric
Utility Directorto enter a personal services contract with Power Engineers, Inc.,
for a preliminary 230/60kv West interconnection scoping study.
BACKGROUND: In response to the City Council's request to further investigate the feasibility of
a 230/60kv transmission interconnection, The Electric Utility Department
proposes to enter into a personal services contract with Power Engineers.
Power Engineers would perform a scoping study and make recommendations relative to:
Locations of interconnection site and utility connection.
Configuration of substation and 60kv lines.
• Transmission line routes.
Permitting.
• Modification to existing electric systems.
Transmission and distribution operating impacts.
Included with their recommendations will be all applicable drawings, project scheduling and cost estimates.
This study will identify the scope of the project, but does not commit the City to any further engineering or
construction activities.
Presently PG&E is reviewing problems associated with their 230/60kv system that supplies electric power to the
Lodi area. It is essential that we perform our study for prudent planning and to defer/avoid improvements to
PG&E's system and associated mitigation costs to Lodi.
FUNDING: NCPA Phase IIA Resource Development Fund.
