HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - September 18, 2002 E-11 PHAGENDA TITLE: Set Public Hearing for October 16, 2002 to consider Electric Rate Changes for all classes
excluding Residential SHARE Program and Residential Medical Rider due to California
Independent System Operator (CAISO) Charges (EUD)
MEETING DATE: September 18, 2002
PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council set a public hearing for October 16, 2002 to consider
Electric Rate Changes for all classes excluding Residential SHARE Program
and Residential Medical Rider due to California Independent System
Operator (CAISO) Charges.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi Electric Utility Department (EUD) as of September 1, 2002
entered into a new contractual arrangement with the CAISO to provide
transmission and ancillary services due to the expiration of a previous
agreement with Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E). PG&E is not interested in continuing to provide these services. The
Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) under this arrangement will act as the EUD's agent. The CAISO is the
only provider of these services in a reasonable manner due to its unique size and Lodi's location relative to
transmission. Unfortunately, due to the monopolistic nature of these services, an increase in cost on the order of $2
million is anticipated annually. This would represent approximately a 5% increase in base rates. The proposed
ordinance presented will incorporate this 5% increase into the current base rates. The increase will be distributed
across all classes including contract rates in such a manner that low income residential users and medical rider
participants will not be affected.
FUNDING: None required. A //� aAL
