1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Physical Security Plan
An assessment of Lodi Electric Utility (LEU)'s four distribution substations, pursuant to CPUC's
Decision 19-01-18, has identified that none of their substations (hereafter referred to as "Covered'
Distribution Facility") listed in the following table require any special measures to reduce risks or
threats.
Distribution
Henning Substation
No
Industrial Substation
No
Killelea Substation
No
McLane Substation
No
Since none of LEU's four distribution substations are considered covered distribution facilities, a
physical security threat and vulnerability risk assessment is not required.
2. INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES
The California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) issued Decision 19-01-018 ("Decision") on Jan
18, 2019.To mitigate the risk of long-term outages, this Decision requires utilities to develop and
implement a Physical Security Plan (PSP). The PSP will be modeled on the requirements as set
forth by the North America Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protocol
(CIP)-014 (presented in Appendix C).
The Decision requires that within 30 months all Publicly Owned Utilities (POUs) will provide the
Commission with a notice that an independently reviewed plan has been adopted. To comply with
the Decision, Lodi Electric Utility (LEU) has developed a PSP and engaged an unaffiliated third -
party to review and provide recommendations. Those recommendations will be reviewed and
addressed.
3. PSP SCOPE
The overall scope of this PSP is to assess all of LEU's distribution facilities and identify which
facilities are considered as Covered Distribution Facilities pursuant to the Decision.
Once the facilities have been identified, the potential physical security threats will be evaluated,
followed by a threat and vulnerability risk assessment to determine the likelihood of an event
occurring and the level of impact.
Finally, the recommended mitigations for each identified threat will be evaluated while factoring in
any appropriate considerations for resiliency, impact, and cost.
' "Covered" is the utility working group term employed to describe those assets that are applicable, or that should be subject to
physical security. We will employ this term for the length of this decision for the sake of consistency.

4. SUMMARY OF PSP DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGY AND
APPROACH
4.1.PSP Development Methodology and Approach
The PSP is developed by following a four -phased approach to ensure that the scope objectives
are accomplished.
Phase II: Phase III: Phase IV:
Discovery Risk Assessment Physical Security Plan
(Assessment Phase) (Report &Presentation)
Pre -Discovery Assessment — Project Execution Plan, Preliminary review of facility
information, and LEU documentation.
Discovery — The discovery phase, includes the following:
a. Interviews with LEU management, and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs),
gathering any additional information to determine the Covered Distribution
Facilities which will need greater protection per the Decision.
b. If required, conduct a physical walk down of the Covered Distribution Facilities
to identify any potential threats or vulnerabilities.
c. If required, conduct additional interviews with LEU management, SMEs and first
responders to discuss the findings and gather additional information.
III. Post -Assessment —Based on the outcome of Phases I and II, conduct the threat and
vulnerability risk assessment, identify the baseline risks, the required mitigations and
the resulting residual risks.
IV. Physical Security Plan Report — Prepare the PSP report by documenting the findings,
the potential threats and vulnerabilities, the risk assessments and the required
mitigations.
5. DESCRIPTION OF THE UTILITY'S DISTRIBUTION FACILITIES
The City of Lodi, with its Electric Utility Department, provides electric services to all residents and
customers within the City's boundary including the White Slough Wastewater Pollution Control
Facility. The electrical load at City of Lodi is served from four (4) substations:
1. Henning Substation
2. Industrial Substation
3. Killelea Substation
4. McLane Substation

The Industrial distribution substation is interconnected with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) at 60kV
and then from the Industrial Substation, a 60 kV line loops around the city to energize the other
three substations, Henning, McLane and Killelea. The distribution voltage from the substations is at
12 W.
The LEU serves approximately 28,000 meters including residential and commercial customers.
The historical peak load is approximately 140 MW.
Also included in the LEU footprint is a 27 MW backup generating facility that is owned and
operated by Northern California Power Agency (NCPA). This generating facility is adjacent to the
McLane substation and the electricity is wheeled though the PG&E network and therefore there is
no dependence on the McLane substation.
6. IDENTIFICATION OF THE IN -SCOPE DISTRIBUTION FACILITIES
SUBJECT TO THE CPUC DECISION 19-01-18 PER SB699
Based on the description of LEU's distribution system as presented in Section 5.0, and the criteria

Since there were no "Covered" distribution facilities identified this section was not required.
10. PSP VALIDATION
10.1. Unaffiliated Third -Party Evaluation
For every PSP cycle, (see section 11) LEU will:
1. Identify Covered Distribution Facilities
2. Identify the Physical Threats and Vulnerabilities and Conduct the Risk Assessment
3. Develop a Physical Security Plan (Mitigation Plan)
This document constitutes LEU's Draft Physical Security Plan. The Draft Physical Security Plan will
be submitted to a Qualified Third Party for Independent Review.
The Qualified Third -Party Reviewer will then issue an evaluation that identifies any potential
deficiencies in the Draft PSP as well as recommendations for improvements. LEU will then modify
its plan to address any recommendations or will document the reasons why any recommendations
were not adopted.
The combination of the Draft Physical Security Plan, the non -confidential conclusions of the
Qualified Third -Party Reviewer, and LEU's responses to the Qualified Third -Party Review will
constitute LEU's Final Physical Security Plan.
10.2. Qualified Authority
The final Physical Security Plan must be deemed adequate by Lodi Police Department or by a
Qualified Authority designated by the Lodi City Council.
When the agency completes its review and provides LEU with any recommendations regarding this
plan or LEU's operations, then LEU will take one of the following actions:
• Will update or revise the PSP as appropriate based on the recommendations provided by
the agency, or
• Document the reason(s) for not modifying the PSP.
11. REPEAT PROCESS
LEU will repeat the process at least once every five (5) calendar years as described below:
1. Assess all of the LEU's distribution facilities, identify which facilities are considered
"Covered" Distribution Facilities pursuant to the Decision.
2. Once the "Covered" Distribution facilities have been identified, identify any potential
physical security threats and vulnerabilities, and conduct a threat and vulnerability risk
assessment. Determine the baseline risk based on the likelihood of an event occurring and
the level of impact if the event occurred.

APPENDIX C - CPUC DECISION 19-01-8 SIX -STEP
PROCEDURE
Safety and Enforcement Division's (SED) Risk Assessment & Safety Advisory (RASA) recommend
six -step procedure for carrying out new physical security plan requirements to address utilities'
distribution assets. These proposed steps are modeled on the security plan requirements set forth
by NERC CIP-014.
Step 1. Assessment. Drafting of a plan, addressing prevention, response, and recovery, which
could be prepared in-house or by a consultant, and which shall include proposed and
recommended mitigation measures.
Step 2. Independent Review and Utility Response to Recommendations. Proposed plan would
be reviewed and by an independent third party, likely a qualified consultant expert, national
laboratory, or a regulatory or industry standard body (such as the Electric Power Research
Institute). Step 2 would include reviewer recommendations that assess and appraise the
appropriateness of the risk assessment, proposed mitigation measures, and other plan elements. A
utility would be expected to fully address reviewer recommendations, including justifying any
mitigations that it declines to accept; the independent third -party opinion/recommendations, utility
response, threat and risk assessment, and mitigation measures combined would constitute a final
plan report.
Step 3. Safety and Enforcement Division (SED) Review (for IOUs only). Final plan report would
be reviewed by the CPUC SED (recurring every five years) so as to determine whether it is in
compliance with regulatory requirements, and eligible to request funding for implementation. Upon
five years from the date of adoption, a utility would be required to have any revised or original plan
updated and repeat the review process. Utilities may be afforded regulatory relief by way of an
exemption request process for special cases where undertaking of the plan overhaul and/or review
process may be impracticable or unduly burdensome. Non-compliance could result in an
enforcement action, potentially resulting in sanctions and/or penalties as provided by. An SED
finding of compliance would render IOUs eligible to request funding for appropriate physical
security needs identified by IOUs; project expenditures would be tracked in a memorandum
account and subject to reasonableness review in the GRC.
Step 3a. Plan Review (for POUs only). Final plan report would be deemed adequate
(recurring every five years, and eligible for same exemption request process made available to
the IOUs) by a qualified authority designated by the applicable local governance body. (For
example, Riverside Public Utilities currently develops a security and emergency response plan
that conforms to the Governor's Office of Emergency Services (CalOES) and Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) standards and receives their endorsement.)
Step 4. Adoption (for POUs only). Reviewed plan would be submitted to the appropriate
regulatory oversight body (local governance body) for review and greenlighting (adoption). Step 4
should include funding to implement the plan.
Step 4a. Notice. (for POUs only). Provide CPUC with official notice (ideally including a copy
of a resolution of the adopted plan action.
Step 5. Maintenance. Ongoing adopted plan refinement and updates as appropriate and as
necessary to preserve plan integrity. All security plans should be concurrent with and integrated
into utility resiliency plans and activities.
Step 6. Repeat Process. Plan overhaul and review every five years.

1.0 Introduction
This unaffiliated third -party review was conducted by TRC Senior Security Consultant Mike
Mello, CPP. This review was conducted of the Lodi Electric Utility (LEU) Physical Security Plan
and its criteria for following the California Public Utilities Commission's (CPUC) Decision 19-01-
018 of January 22, 2019. The physical security plan was prepared by LEU and reviewed by TRC.
Mike Mello, CPP led the assessment of the LEU physical security plan (draft) and was assisted
by Rico Senence, CPTED, BPATS.
This review was conducted in accordance with and is intended to meet the requirements of,
CPUC Decision 19-01-018 January 10, 2019, with a date of issuance of 1/22/2019.
CPUC Decision 19-01-018 states:
This decision requires electric utilities to identify electric distribution assets that may merit
special protection and measures to lessen identified risks and threats. In order to address
the risk of long-term outage to a distribution facility, each Operator will develop and
implement a Mitigation Plan. The Mitigation Plans will follow a six -step procedure for
carrying out these new physical security plan requirements. The six -step plan is modeled on
the security plan requirements set forth by the North America Electric Reliability Corporation
(NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protocol (CIP)-014.
Specifically, the Joint Utility Proposal sets forth the following as facilities requiring such
assessments:
1. Distribution Facility necessary for crank path, black start or capability
essential to the restoration of regional electricity service that is not
subject to the California Independent System Operator's (CAISO)
operational control and/or subject to North American Electric
Reliability Corporation (NERC) Reliability Standard CIP-014-2 or its
successors;
2. Distribution Facility that is the primary source of electrical service to a
military installation essential to national security and/or emergency
response services (may include certain airfields, command centers,
weapons stations, emergency supply depots);
3. Distribution Facility that serves installations necessary forthe provision
of regional drinking water supplies and wastewater services (may
include certain aqueducts, well fields, groundwater pumps, and
treatment plants);
4. Distribution Facility that serves a regional public safety establishment
(may include County Emergency Operations Centers; county sheriff's
department and major city police department headquarters; major

state and county fire service headquarters; county jails and state and
federal prisons; and 911 dispatch centers);
5. Distribution Facility that serves a major transportation facility (may
include International Airport, Mega Seaport, other air traffic control
center, and international border crossing);
6. Distribution Facility that serves as a Level 1 Trauma Center as
designated by the Office of Statewide Health Planning and
Development; and
7. Distribution Facility that serves over 60,000 meters.
To evaluate each Mitigation Plan(s), each Operator will select an unaffiliated third party with
the appropriate experience needed to review the Identification and Assessment evaluations
and the Mitigation Plan(s) performed and developed by the Operator. After the Mitigation
Plans have been evaluated, the Operator should either modify its Mitigation Plan to be
consistent with the recommendations or document its reasons for not doing so.
2.0 Objective
Conduct an unaffiliated third -party review of the physical security plan developed CPUC
Decision 19-01-018.
3.0 Qualifications to Perform Third -Party Review
Each utility shall employ a qualified third -party expert to provide independent verification of
any Distribution Security Program and Mitigation Plans, taking the following requirements into
account:
Unaffiliated Third -Party Reviewer: The Unaffiliated Third -Party Reviewer shall be an entity
other than the Operator with appropriate expertise, as described below. The selected third -
party reviewer cannot be a corporate affiliate of the Operator (i.e., the third -party reviewer
cannot be an entity that is controlled by the utility or controlled by or is under common control
with, the Operator). A third -party reviewer also cannot be a division of the Operator that
operates as a functional unit. A governmental entity can select as the third -party reviewer
another governmental entity within the same political subdivision, so long as the entity has the
appropriate expertise, and is not a division of the Operator that operates as a functional unit,
i.e., a municipality could use its police department as its third -party reviewer if it has the
appropriate expertise.
Unaffiliated Third Party Reviewer Appropriate Expertise: The Unaffiliated Third -Party Reviewer
shall be an entity or organization with electric industry physical security experience and whose
review staff has appropriate physical security expertise, i.e., have at least one member who
holds either an ASIS International Certified Protection Professional (CPP) or Physical Security
Professional (PSP) certification; an entity or organization with demonstrated law enforcement,

government, or military physical security expertise; or an entity or organization approved to do
physical security assessments by the CPUC, Electric Reliability Organization or similar electrical
industry regulatory body.
The Unaffiliated Third -Party Reviewer is Michael Mello, CPP. Michael Mello is a Senior Security
Consultant for TRC and fully meets the credential requirements CPUC Decision 19-01-018 6.4.
He has been employed with TRC since 2019. Mr. Mello is a Certified Protection Professional
(CPP) through ASIS International, having achieved the CPP certification in 2018 (CPP# 17339;
Certification Date: 08/2018). Mr. Mello spent 30 years in law enforcement retiring from that
position in 2010. Since that time, he has been deeply involved in consultation on areas of risk
mitigation and management from a security standpoint, both as an educator and evaluator of
technology, processes, and personnel. Mr. Mello's expertise extends to both national and
international projects with subject matter expertise in security strategies, emergency
management, and emerging technology.
4.0 Review Implementation Milestone Dates

5.0 Description
On June 3, 2021, this reviewer, along with Rico Senence from TRC, conducted a review of the
draft physical security plan provided by LEU in accordance with CPUC Decision 19-01-018. LEU
also provided information pertaining to an assessment of LEU's four distribution substations,
which LEU has identified that none of their substations (hereafter referred to as "Covered
Distribution Facility") require any special measures to reduce risks or threats. Since none of
LEU's four distribution substations are considered covered distribution facilities, a physical
security threat and vulnerability risk assessment are not required. It is further noted that LEU
is not a NERC registered entity and therefore is not required to meet any standards under the
NERC CIP regulations.
The LEU listed Facilities include:
Industrial, 1215 Thurman St., Lodi, CA
Killelea, 545 E. Locust St., Lodi, CA
Henning, 1331 South Ham Ln., Lodi, CA
McLane, 2102 W. Turner Rd., Lodi CA
The overall scope of the physical security plan is described as "to assess all of LEU -s distribution
facilities and identify which facilities are considered as Covered Distribution Facilities pursuant
to the Decision.
Once the facilities have been identified, the potential physical security threats will be evaluated,
followed by a threat and vulnerability risk assessment to determine the likelihood of an event
occurring and the level of impact.
Finally, the recommended mitigations for each identified threat will be evaluated while
factoring in any appropriate considerations for resiliency, impact, and cost."
As previously stated, during the evaluation process it was determined that the LEU locations
listed do not meet the criteria level listed in CPUC's Decision 19-01-8 and are not considered
"Covered" distribution facilities. Section 6 of the physical security plan outlines the criteria for
CPUC's Decision 19-01-8 and LUE's assessment under those criteria and is identified in Table 2
below.

For this reason, this reviewer assesses that TRC agrees that LEU does not have any "Covered"
facilities per CPUC Decision 19-01-018 and that the draft physical security plan proposed by LEU
adequately meets the requirements of LEU's needs for a Physical Security Plan. Further, the
planned overhaul and review of every five years is an adequate time frame under the Safety
and Enforcement Division's Risk Assessment & Safety Advisory's six -step procedure for carrying
out new physical security plan requirements which are modeled on NERC CIP-014 security plan
requirements. The only exception to this review time would be in the case of a major change,
such as new construction, purchase or sale of a facility, or other large-scale change that could
affect whether a location is a Covered Distribution Facility or not.
6.0 Recommended Changes to the Physical Security Plan
CPUC Decision 19-01-018 Requirement 4.4 Verification states:
In order to evaluate each Mitigation Plan(s), each Operator will select an unaffiliated third
party with the appropriate experience needed to review the Identification and Assessment
evaluations and the Mitigation Plan(s) performed and developed by the Operator. After the
Mitigation Plans have been evaluated, the Operator should either modify its Mitigation Plan
to be consistent with the recommendations or document its reasons for not doing so.
Table 3 below lists all recommended physical security enhancements, modifications, and
mitigations developed during this Review. It should be noted that the response to these
recommendations is auditable.

7.0 Limitations & Exclusions
LEU is to be reminded that per Step 6 of the six -step plan as outlined in CPUC Decision 19-01-
018 states "Plan overhaul and review every five years. Changes to Security Plan requirements
may also be done by SED (or successor entity) director letter."
By performing this Unaffiliated Third -Party Review, TRC is not declaring LEU's sites safe or
secure from all threats and hazards. The Threats, and the associated Vulnerabilities at the site,
that would be presented in an Assessment, would have dictated the security measures that are
to be outlined in the Physical Security Plan; and these vulnerabilities and security measures
would be the focus of this review. The Physical Security Plan provides information on those
specific security measures discussed herein that will be implemented at a site based on the
existing security posture at the time of this project, in which there were no "Covered"
distribution facilities identified.
