A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING THE
CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AMENDED AND RESTATED
SCHEDULING COORDINATION PROGRAM AGREEMENT WITH THE
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA POWER AGENCY
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHEREAS, the Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) currently provides various Power
Management and Administrative services to the City of Lodi pursuant to multiple service based
agreements including a Facilities Agreement (FA), Scheduling Coordination Program Agreement (SCPA),
and Pooling Agreement (PA); and
WHEREAS, many of these agreements were developed prior to the deregulation of the wholesale
electric industry and therefore require modification to make them consistent with current electric utility
industry requirements; and
WHEREAS, updates to these agreements are also needed to ensure consistency with how costs
associated with such services are allocated to NCPA members in accordance with current NCPA
Commission approved policies; and
WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Scheduling Coordination Program Agreement sets forth
the terms and conditions under which NCPA may provide Scheduling Coordination Services including, but
not limited to, submission of schedules and bids on behalf of members, obtaining and maintaining
settlement quality meter data, performing outage coordination for planned and unplanned outages,
validation and reconciliation of California Independent System Operator (CAISO) settlement charges and
credits, and allocating CAISO charges and credits among members; and
WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Scheduling Coordination Program Agreement has been
written to mitigate cross -member risk and is structured to insulate members who do not take certain
services from NCPA from risks inherent in the services and transactions undertaken by NCPA on behalf
of any given member or group of members; and
WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Scheduling Coordination Program Agreement is
designed to clearly assign costs attributed to particular services and to ensure that members who take
certain services are obligated to assume all obligations that result from NCPA's actions in performing the
services; and
WHEREAS, the Risk Oversight Committee received a report on this agenda item and
recommends City Council approval.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby authorize the City
Manager to execute the Amended and Restated Scheduling Coordination Program Agreement with
NCPA.
