Entergy Transmission Business Page 4 of 24 EMO OASIS 1500580 Facilities Study 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The purpose of this Facilities Study is to determine the transmission improvements needed to un-designate the study generator as a network generator for Entergy native load. This request from Entergy Services (EMO) is for 1MW of yearly network transmission service. The time period for this transfer is from 1/1/2008 until 1/1/2038. The direction of the transaction is EES to EES. This study was performed on the latest available 2012 summer peak case, using PSS/E and MUST software by Power Technologies Incorporated (PTI).

Some of the upgrades detailed in this facility study were identified in a higher queued Transmission Service Request. The OASIS numbers, for those requests, are listed with each upgrade. If that prior request is not Confirmed, responsibility for funding this upgrade (in accordance with Entergy's OATT) will be required under this request. If the prior request is confirmed and the customer enters into a Transmission Service Agreement with Entergy, the responsibility to fund the upgrade will be a requirement under the prior request; however the funding party will have Financial Transmission Rights (FTRs) to any additional capacity created by the upgrade in accordance with Attachment T to Entergy's OATT. Use of any available capacity created as a result of that upgrade will require payment to the funding party for use of those FTRs in accordance with Attachment T.

The facility study identifies any transmission constraints resulting from the requested power transfer. The facility study also includes cost estimates to correct any transmission constraints.

Under Entergy’s Independent Coordinator of Transmission which became effective on November 17, 2006, Entergy will recover these costs based on the Attachment T to our OATT. Based on Attachment T, the ICT has determined these costs to be classified as Base Plan and Supplemental Upgrades.

2. SAFETY AWARENESS

Safety is a priority with Entergy. Safety will be designed into substations and lines. The designs will be done with the utmost safety for personnel in mind for construction, operation and maintenance of the equipment.

All employees working directly or indirectly for Entergy shall adhere to all rules and regulations outlined within the Entergy Safety manual. Entergy requires safety to be the highest priority for all projects. All Entergy and Contract employees must follow all applicable safe work procedures.

Entergy Transmission Business Page 5 of 24 EMO OASIS 1500580 Facilities Study 3. SCOPE SUMMARY The Facilities Study has identified some transmission constraints. The constraints can be addressed in the following manner:

I. Sarepta Project: 1) Louisiana • Construct a 345/115 kV tie at Sarepta 115kV substation • Upgrade Minden-Minden Bulk 115kV transmission line • Install a 36 MVAR capacitor bank at Lucky 115kV, • Install a 28.8 MVAR capacitor bank at Vienna 115kV. 2) Arkansas • Install a 21.6 MVAR capacitor bank at Emerson 115kV

Constraints were identified for this transmission service request which will be alleviated by the 2011 Southwest Arkansas/Northwest Louisiana Reliability Improvement project (Sarepta project) in the 2008 ICT Base Plan and proposed in Entergy’s 2008-2010 Transmission Construction Plan. This project has not yet been approved. If this project is approved, the customer will only be required to fund acceleration costs as the thermal and voltage constraints are seen during 2009. The acceleration costs cannot be determined at this time.

The proposed Sarepta project will solve thermal and under-voltage constraints listed below:

Thermal Overloads Limiting Element Contingency Element Vienna-TRussell Crossing 115kV Magnolia East-McNeil 115kV Haynesville-Sarepta 115kV Arcadia-TRussell Crossing 115kV Vienna-TRussell Crossing 115kV McNeil 500/115kV autotransformer El Dorado Donan-El Dorado EHV 115kV Camden Maguire-Smackover 115kV El Dorado East-El Dorado Jackson 115kV El Dorado Monsanto-El Dorado Donan 115kV El Dorado East-El Dorado EHV 115kV El Dorado Donan-El Dorado EHV 115kV Vienna-TRussell Crossing 115kV Magnolia East-Magnolia Steel-Kerlin 115kV Vienna-TRussell Crossing 115kV Danville-Jonesboro 115kV Vienna-TRussell Crossing 115kV Minden-Ada-Sailes 115kV Sailes-Ada 115kV Vienna-TRussell Crossing 115kV El Dorado Monsanto-El Dorado Donan 115kV El Dorado East-El Dorado Jackson 115kV El Dorado Donan-El Dorado EHV 115kV El Dorado East-El Dorado Jackson 115kV El Dorado EHV-El Dorado Donan-El Dorado Monsanto 115kV Vienna-Bernice 115kV El Dorado EHV 500/115kV autotransformer

II. Install a 2nd 500/115kV Autotransformer at McNeil

The El Dorado 500/115kV autotransformer overloads for the loss of the McNeil 500/115kV autotransformer. It is required that a 2nd 500/115kV autotransformer at McNeil with a capacity of 600 MVA be installed.

III. Overload of Magnolia South-Shuler 115kV Transmission Line for the loss of the El Dorado 500/115 kV Autotransformer

The Magnolia South-Shuler 115kV transmission line overloads for the loss of the El Dorado 500/115kV autotransformer. The Magnolia South-Shuler 115kV transmission line needs to have a capacity of 141 MVA or greater on all components. The line conductor has a rated capacity of 176 MVA, but the Shuler 115kV switch #B0558 is rated at 600A or 120 MVA. The switch needs to be upgraded to 1200A.

IV. Add a 30.5 MVAR Capacitor Bank at Prescott 115kV Substation for Voltage Support

A 30.5 MVAR capacitor bank is needed for voltage support at the following substations:

Notes to Duration Schedules • All construction work requiring outages will be performed during the off-peak load season. Line outages will be discussed with the SOC/TOC and the assumption is made that line outages will be executed as planned. However, last minute denial of outages by the SOC/TOC along with resulting schedule delay is a possibility • Construction will occur in 2009 through 2011 • Substation construction will be completed during transmission line outages. • Transmission Line and Substation projects will begin subsequent to Definition phase Project Execution Plan • Schedule durations are high level estimates at this time. Upon project approval, a detailed schedule will be produced. • Schedule durations provide Transformer 500 kV substations to be the last one to go in service in 2011 should the definition phase be started in first quarter 2008. Equipment could be purchased during the definition phase with customer approval and the durations could be minimized. Upon project approval, a detailed schedule will be produced. • Acceleration of project can not occur due to extensive lead times.

1 INTRODUCTION:

The 115kV line from McNeil to Emerson in South Arkansas is 56 miles long. The loss of any section of the line between McNeil to Emerson will cause severe low voltages (68% to 91% to 6 stations). 94MW are at risk in 20061. The objective of this project is to construct a new 345/115kV substation at Sarepta to relieve low voltages caused by single contingencies. Also, a 21.6MVAR capacitor bank will be installed at Emerson and relay modifications will be made at Longwood (SWEPCO) and at El Dorado as part of this project. This project will benefit the system by alleviating the anticipated violation of NERC Planning Standard I.A.S2.M2 performance criteria associated with Category 'B' contingencies.

2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Targeted ISD June 2008 Projected ISD ?

A number of options have been considered to solve the issued defined above. Transmission Planning has selected the solution to be installing an auto transformer at Sarepta Substation to connect the 345kv line near the substation to the existing 115kv substation. Entergy owns a considerable amount of property around the Sarepta Substation therefore no additional property acquisitions will be necessary.

El Dorado Substation 500/345/115 (EAI): (345kv Line North end point) Relaying will need to be upgraded.

Emerson (EAI): a 21.6 MVAR fuseless capacitor bank will be installed at Emerson Substation in EAI. The configuration will be [manual switch][circuit switcher][Capacitor bank]. One 400 amp trap will be required on the A Phase.

Longwood Substation (SWEPCO): (345kv Line south end point) Relaying will need to be examined and upgraded. These activities will be coordinated through Entergy’s wholesale account representative assigned to SWEPCO.

Transmission line construction will be entirely on existing property owned by Entergy therefore no ROW acquisitions or CCN activities will be required.

Sarepta 345kv Substation: The general scope of the project will be to construct a ring bus on the property adjacent to the existing 345kV dead end towers. The 345kv lines will be cut in to the substation. A 115kv connect the old and new substation effectively becoming a new source line into the Sarepta 115kv Substation. For all practical purposes, the new substation will be a completely stand alone facility attached via control cables and ground grid only to the existing substation.

Transformer: 345kv/115kv 300MVA, 3 phase, buried tertiary, No Load Tap Changer (# Steps 5), Impedance = 12%.

115kv Sarepta Substation: There will be considerable upgrades required for this substation. It will include: Replacing two switches on R6455, installing 3 CVT’s, two circuit switchers, and upgrading the battery.

4 PROJECT STRATEGIC PLANNING – KEY EXECUTION STRATEGIES

4.1 Assumptions & Their Potential Effects

4.1.1 Budget Approval Date:

Scoping must be performed in 2006 to achieve the needed ISD. Funding for 2006 has been approved. Funding for 2007 must be approved by end of 2006 to allow work to begin.

4.1.2 Outage Assumptions:

The El Dorado to Longwood (SWEPCO) 345kV transmission line can be de-energized for the duration needed to complete the slack span cut-in and to complete relay modifications at El Dorado and at Longwood (SWEPCO). No more than 3 days are anticipated for this outage.

The 115kV operating bus at Sarepta can be de-energized for the duration needed to complete the necessary modifications. The transformers can be placed on the inspection bus, the capacitor bank cannot.

13.8kv Transformer in Sarepta 115kv Substation: Outage to install the circuit switcher can be scheduled any time of the year.

34.5kv Transformer in Sarepta 115kv Substation: Outage to install circuit switcher can not be scheduled during the summer. There is a load sensitive industrial customer on this transformer, so outages must be coordinated through the major account representative, Jeff Aycock.

An appropriate outage on the lines in and out of Emerson can arranged to place the capacitor bank in service. The land currently owned by Entergy at the Emerson site is sufficient to allow moving the fence out and installing the new capacitor bank.

4.1.3 Environmental Assumptions

An environmental assessment will be performed on both the new site to determine if any adverse conditions exist. None are expected on the line route.

Sarepta 345kv will be a limestone surfacing. Sarepta 115kv will not be covered in limestone as a project necessary portion of this project. Emerson 115kv has a cover of limestone and washed gravel. The new yard section will be covered in washed gravel.

4.1.4 Adjacent Substation Impacts

This project will create a new breaker point in between El Dorado and Longwood.

El Dorado 500/345/115 Substation (EAI) – Relay upgrades will be required. The line traps will have to be replaced/retuned to accommodate the new node at Sarepta 345kV. A new frequency will be used on the El Dorado – Sarepta Line.

Longwood (SWEPCO) – Relay upgrades will be required. The line traps will not have to be replaced/retuned to accommodate the new node at Sarepta 345kV because the existing frequency will become the Sarepta to Longwood Frequency.

The Sarepta 345 to Longwood 345 relaying configuration will be as follows:

Sarepta – PEP Rev e

Page 7 of 33 Revision e

The existing line relay frequency will be used between Sarepta and Longwood. Primary = SEL 421 at Sarepta and SEL 421 at Longwood, blocking scheme Secondary = SEL 421 at Sarepta and GED60 at Longwood, unblocking scheme Dual Direct Transfer Tripping (Sarepta and Longwood) Digital Fault Recorder Required Carrier will be RFL from Pulzar Universal Power Line Carrier from Sarepta to Longwood

4.2 Constraints & Results

Management approval of an appropriate stream of funding for this project will hold up progress.

4.3 Permit Requirements None

4.4 ELI Regulatory

There may be some interaction at a FERC level due to the interaction between two utilities. These matters will be handled via the Transmission Policy and Account.

4.5 Risk Planning

See Section 13

4.6 Funding

The budget for the first year of the project, will be to scope the project. Funding in 2007 will be for site and foundation work on the new substation and upgrade work on all existing facilities. Funding in 2008 will be for steel erection and final assembly of the new substation. The largest single purchases will be the breakers and transformer which will be purchased near the end of the project to minimize the time the financial resources are expended but not in service. A detailed funding schedule will be provided in this document.

The funding strategy for this project is as follows: Develop a Funding Project to encompass the following tasks:

Scope and begin design Sarepta 345kv Project 2006 Upgrade Sarepta 115kv, Longwood and Eldorado Substations 2007 Perform site work and start foundations on Saretpa 345kv – 2007 Install Emerson Cap Bank during fall 2008 Complete Sarepta 345kv substation – 2008

See attached EXCEL Estimate Summary

4.7 Contracting Strategy

External contractors will be used for T-Line, site, foundation and electrical work. Internal resources will be used for all other services.

4.8 Material Procurement Strategy

No surplus material will be used. All material will be purchased new.

4.9 Technology Strategy

N/A.

4.10 Relative Priorities

5 SAFETY AWARENESS AND EXECUTION PLAN:

Sarepta 345kv is a new green field site so there are no existing energized equipment concerns, however work will be done near an energized 345kV, 115kV, 34.5kv and 13.8kv lines. Normal construction safety preformed in accordance with “Transmission and Distribution Safety Manual” will address the safety issues.

Sarepta 345kv Substation will require an unusually large transformer by normal Entergy standards. This will require a qualified heavy lift contractor. Offloading, staging and placing the transformer will require extra attention.

Sarepta 115kv Substation will involve a number of complex switching outages to preserve service to customers and provide a sufficient outage envelope to allow the relaying upgrades. The design sequence should accommodate these outages.

Longwood, Emerson and Eldorado are energized and work in the station will need be coordinated with appropriate outages.

Sarepta will involve cutting into an existing 345kV transmission line. Appropriate EHV safety precautions will be required.

• Dual Direct Transfer Tripping (Sarepta and El Dorado) • Dual Direct Transfer Tripping (Sarepta and Longwood)

• Carrier will be RFL from Sarepta to El Dorado and Pulzar UPLC from Sarepta to Longwood

6.3.2 El Dorado Substation Improvements (EAI)

6.3.2.1 Foundation Work

• The relay design calls for new slip over CT’s on the 500 to 345 auto transformer. Conduit will be needed to support these CT’s.

• Three CCVT’s will be installed in place of the A and C phase coupling capacitors. This will require additional foundations and conduit.

6.3.2.2 Electrical Work

• Install conduit and equipment for the CT’s.

6.3.2.3 Relay Work

• There are two separate control houses connected by a short enclosed hallway at El Dorado EHV Substation. The existing Longwood relaying equipment and GE Harris RTU main unit are located in the older control house. All work for this project will be done in the old building.

• Remove all GE Primary Static Relaying and CS-26A carrier set from the Longwood Primary Relaying Cabinet 17C.

• Remove GE CT-51 / CR-51 Transfer Trip equipment from the Longwood Transfer Trip Cabinet 18C.

• Remove all Telemetry equipment from Cabinet 19C.

• Retrofit Longwood Primary Relaying Cabinet 17C with a Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories SEL-421 for line protection, RFL 9780 three frequency unblocking carrier set, and all other necessary auxiliary equipment need for testing and maintenance (carrier cutoff switch, direct transfer trip test switch, etc.). This cabinet will coordinate with the Primary 1 Line Relaying Panel to be installed at the new Sarepta Substation. New Transfer trip and

Sarepta – PEP Rev e

Page 10 of 33 Revision e

unblocking frequencies will be specified by the Entergy Relay Settings Group for the Sarepta to El Dorado Line. Re-label the cabinet as “Sarepta Primary 1 Relay Cabinet”. Reference retrofit done at Keo Substation for the ISES line primary relaying asset no. A2009. (A2009LO5)

• Retrofit the existing Longwood Transfer Trip Cabinet 18C with a Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories SEL-421 for line protection, RFL 9780 three frequency unblocking carrier set, transfer trip unit and all other necessary auxiliary equipment needed for testing and maintenance (carrier cutoff switch, direct transfer trip test switch, etc.). This cabinet will coordinate with the Primary 2 Line Relaying Panel installed at the new Sarepta Substation. Transfer trip and unblocking frequencies will be specified by the Entergy Relay Settings Group for the Sarepta to El Dorado Line. Re-label the cabinet as “Sarepta Primary 2 Relay Cabinet”. Reference retrofit done at Keo Substation for the ISES line primary relaying asset no. A2009. (A2009LO5)

• Retrofit the existing Telemetry Cabinet 19C with a NxtPhase L-Pro relay and all other necessary auxiliary equipment needed for testing and maintenance. This relay will be used as backup protection against common mode failure of the SEL-421 relays.

• There is currently only one set of CTs in the low side transformer bushings being used for line protection. In order to achieve full redundant protection an additional set will be needed. Purchase and install four 2000:5 slip over CTs. These will be installed on the low side bushings of the 500/345kV autotransformer. To provide the best overlap in protection these new CTs will be for as the transformer protection relays and the CTs currently being used for transformer protection will be used for the Primary 2 line relaying. Each CT slip over CT shall be wired to the existing Autotransformer Junction Box.

• No new AC circuits will be needed to perform this project.

• The existing DC panel has four spare 100A and two spare 40A circuit breakers. This will be adequate to complete the project.

• The existing line traps line traps on the Longwood 345kV Line are over thirty years old and can not easily be retuned. To ensure proper carrier communication purchase and install two 345kV, 2000A Single Frequency Line Traps. Reference Entergy Purchase Standard PM0802, latest revision. These units shall be ordered factory tuned to the new frequencies specified by the Entergy relay settings group.

• Purchase and install two Single Frequency Line Tuners. Reference Entergy Purchase Standard PM0804, latest revision. These tuners will replace the existing line tuners on the Longwood 345kV Line. These units shall be ordered factory tuned to the new frequencies specified by the Entergy relay settings group.

• The existing coupling capacitors and line potential transformers are over thirty years old purchase and install a total of five 345kV CCVTs. All CCVTs are to be metering accuracy and shall have carrier accessories installed for ease of construction coordination as well as future use. Reference Entergy Purchase Standard PN0201, latest revision.

Sarepta – PEP Rev e

Page 11 of 33 Revision e

• Two CCVTs will replace the existing A-phase and C-phase coupling capacitors on the existing Longwood 345kV Line. The single phase junction boxes for these CCVTs will also be replaced. Purchase, design, and install two Single Phase CVT Junction Boxes. Reference Entergy Design Standard PM2402, latest revision.

• Three CCVTs will replace the existing PTs on the existing Longwood 345kV Line Node. The bus potential junction box for these CCVTs will also be replaced. Purchase, design, and install one Bus Potential Junction Box. Reference Entergy Design Standard PM2402, latest revision.

• The existing GE Harris RTU main unit is located in the old control house, and peripheral cards are located in the new control house. There are not enough spare points in the main unit to accommodate this new installation. There is also no more room in the RTU cabinet to install and additional card. Purchase and install one RTU expansion cabinet consisting of two D20-S cards with DB25 connectors and wiedmuller terminal blocks. This unit will be installed next to the existing main RTU cabinet.

• There is an existing SEL-2020 and Teltone located in the new control house. Because of its processing limitations the SEL-2020 will not be adequate for the addition of the 2 new SEL-421 relays. Purchase, design and install one Orion 5r Communications / Port Switcher. The communications processor will need to be connected to the RTU to pass DNP analog data to the TOC. Entergy Asset Preservation has already brought Ethernet into the control house the Orion 5r should be connected to the existing router. Because of the long distance to the communications processor fiber optics will have to be used. Install SEL-2810 RS-232 fiber converters and Fiber Optic cable to connect the two SEL-421s and the L-Pro to the communications processor.

• AEP / SWEPCO currently has a data line connected to the RTU at El Dorado this will no longer be needed. Remove this data circuit.

6.3.2.4 Settings / RTU Configurations Work

• Relay settings will be required for the 2 new SEL-421 relays and the new L-Pro relay.

• A new RTU configuration will be required.

6.3.2.5 Metering Upgrade

• The metering at El Dorado EHV will remain as intra company tie metering (EAI- ELI). The metering will be upgraded to a JEMStar bi-directional meter with DNP. Purchase, design and install one JEMStar meter Catalog Number JS-09J2- 6020-51-DNP-TOT-12CH and all necessary converters and surge suppression equipment needed to connect the RS-485 DNP output from the meter to the RTU. The surge suppression equipment shall be a B&B Electronics model 4850P RS-485 Optical Isolator along with a B&B Electronics model 4850T9L RS-232 to RS-485 Optically Isolated Converter.

Page 12 of 33 Revision e

A 21.6 MVAR capacitor bank (fuseless, ungrounded wye) will be installed at Emersion Substation in EAI. The capacitor bank will be installed on the Sarepta/Hayesville line side of breaker B06342. Emerson currently has two batteries, a 125vdc and a 48vdc battery. The RTU will be moved from the 48vdc to the 125vdc. At the completion of the project, if the 48vdc battery has no remaining load, it should be removed.

6.3.3.1 Site Work

• Soil borings will be required.

• The capacitor bank will be situated on the SE corner of the substation. The existing east fence will have to be relocated to the east. This will require removal of approximately 165 feet of fence and the subsequent addition of approximately 365 feet of fence.

• The ground grid will be enlarged to accommodate the station expansion.

• A topographical survey will be required for station expansion.

• There is a drainage ditch along the east fence that may need to be relocated to the east.

6.3.3.4 Relay / Configurations Work

• An operational online does not currently exist for this station and will need to be generated from scratch.

• Purchase, design and install ungrounded capacitor bank control panel, using Entergy Standard PM070200 as a reference only. The ungrounded control panel for fault interrupter switch (FIS) application will be used, except that the panel will incorporate the ZIV Type BCD Protection and Control Relay in place of the S&C UP and VR relays.

• Purchase, design and install an S&C 69 kV phase to ground resistive potential device according to Entergy Standard PM070200. A resistance type potential device is required to monitor the capacitor bank neutral-to-ground voltage. A single-phase CVT junction box will be used for the neutral voltage.

• Purchase and install one 115kV, 400A Single Frequency Line Trap. Reference Entergy Purchase Standard PM0802, latest revision. This trap will be mounted on the center phase (“A” phase) of the capacitor bank. The unit shall be ordered factory tuned to 166kHz.

• Complete design and installation will be required for the electrical power supply, controls, and monitoring alarms for the one new motor operated switch.

• The AC supply panel has no spare breakers and no spare slots. The DC supply panel has no spare breakers and no spare slots. Purchase, design and install an AC/DC split stand alone panel. This panel will be used to replace the existing

• To make room for the new split AC/DC panel purchase, design, and install a Satec panel meter for the station metering of transformer #1. This meter will be installed on the transformer #1 differential panel. The existing station metering panel for transformer #1 will be removed creating space for the new split AC/DC panel.

• The existing RTU is a CAMCO 48VDC unit with only three spare status points, this will not be sufficient for this installation. Purchase, design and install a GE Harris D20 RTU. The RTU size specification for this project will be 1A/2S/1K/3KI/125 for indoor installation. The new RTU will need to come equipped with a TRW-S9000 Universal Protocol Converter (UPC) to ensure proper communications to the TOC. The RTU should be ordered with a cabinet, DB25 connectors on all cards and varioface terminal blocks.

• The existing 125V, 100Ah battery set and charger appear to be in good condition and should not have to be changed for the equipment added by the capacitor bank installation project.

• The control house has enough available space for to add the Capacitor Bank Control Panel, RTU, and spilt AC/DC panel.

• Complete design and installation will be required for the AC and DC power supplies, controls and monitoring alarms for the 115 kV Fault Interrupter Switch.

• Following the completion of this project, if no other loads remain on the 48vdc battery, it should be removed.

6.3.7.5 Communications

Entergy will require one phone line (POTS) for general service use connected to a port switcher. Entergy will require one RTU Data Circuit to the SOC. Entergy will require one RTU Data Circuit to the TOC. AEP/SWEPCO will require one RTU Data Circuit to their SOC.

6.3.7.6 Metering

Provided by Kathy Truitt (3/24/06 and 7/6/06) and Edin Habibovic: At Sarepta 345KV, for the new metering on the Longwood line.

The existing metering at El Dorado EHV (EAI) is for a “control area tie” with another utility (SWEPCO). The contractual tie meter point will be moved from El Dorado to Sarepta (preserves the meter placement relationship between Entergy and SWEPCO) by installing new meter equipment Sarepta 345kv. The existing metering (at El Dorado) equipment will remain in place and become the inter company (ELI to EAI) meter point.

Both Entergy and SWEPCO will need to modify host computer systems to accommodate transfer of control area tie metering from EAI El Dorado to ELI Sarepta.

Maximum load = 2 * 50 MVA = 100 MVA = 168 amps @ 345KV “Normal” load = 42 MVA = 70 amps @ 345KV Minimum load = 20 MVA = 33.5 amps @ 345KV

Maximum continuous current rating of lines/breakers at interconnection: 298 MVA = 500 amps @ 345KV (auto at El Dorado is limiting element), but other elements are rated at 2000 amps.

Based on the above loading criteria, the recommended CT specifications for the new metering at Sarepta on the Longwood line are as follows:

3 each of CT Ratio = 600:5, RF = 2, Metering Accuracy 0.15S @ B1.8. These CT’s would be “accurate enough” from 30 amps to 1200 amps, and would have a maximum capacity of 1200 amps. It is imperative that 0.15s accuracy be purchased (as opposed to 0.15 or 0.30) since these are the only metering CT’s guaranteed to be accurate enough down to 5% of full load rating. Keep in mind that these CT’s will become the limiting element for load flow on the Sarepta-Longwood 345KV line (1200 amps).

10.2 Cost Management Plan

Project costs will be monitored IAW standard department methods.

10.2.1 Baseline Estimates

The baseline estimate for Sarepta and the LD-Pro baseline estimate for cut in have both been generated and may be reviewed and referenced as an extension of this PEP.

10.2.2 El Dorado Substation TS9376

The relay tasks involve installing various relay upgrades. A construction contingency of 5% will be added to the estimated values to account for technical issues.

10.2.3 Emerson 115kV Substation (EAI) TS9375

The work at Emersion involves significant upgrades to an old substation. Typically, there are many unknowns in this situation. A construction contingency of 5% will be added to the estimated values to account for technical issues and unknowns.

10.2.4 Eldorado to Longwood Transmission Line Cut In TL4xxx

T-Line work work. The actual work is very minimal, therefore no contingency will be carried on this project.

10.2.5 Sarepta 345kV to Sarepta 115kv T-Line

The amount of line work is very small, about 600’ so the actual contingency will be small but the percentage will remain at 5%.

Sarepta – PEP Rev e

Page 27 of 33 Revision e

10.2.6 Sarepta 345kV Substation TS9370

The actual substation is not relatively large. However, considerable site work (dirt work) is necessary for this project. Inclement weather may slow down construction considerably. Extra time is allocated in the schedule to accommodate wet conditions. 5% is being set aside to address civil and site contingencies. Once the site and civil work is complete, most of these funds should be release back to the budget pool for other projects.

10.2.7 Sarepta 115kV Substation TS9377

The work in this substation is upgrade work which historically is difficult to estimate due to the “finding the unexpected” issues. A construction contingency of 5% will be added to the estimated values to account for technical issues.

10.3 Time Management Plan (Scheduling)

See schedule in Project 2000 for start/end dates of planned work activities, including outages. The objective is to continue to work this project as a continuation of Sarepta.

10.4 Change Management Plan

Sarepta – PEP Rev e

Page 28 of 33 Revision e

S345: Foundation work should begin in the fall of 2007 with electrical work to follow in Winter/Spring 2007/2008 for a June ISD. Delivery of the transformer and 345kv line breakers will be in spring of 2008.

S115: Reconfiguration and upgrade work in the Sarepta 115kv substation should begin in Spring 2007 and be completed by the end of 2007.

ED: Relay work in Longwood and Eldorado should be performed in the fall 2007.

T-Line: The transmission line work will include the installation of two dead-end structures to cut the line from Eldorado to Longwood and then span each section into the substation. This will require an outage to this line section and will be scheduled toward the end of the electrical and relay construction phases of work. The outage should be one week in duration. At this time relay work is planned to be performed by the AM group with internal resources.

LG: Work at Longwood will be coordinated with AEP.

Emerson: The work at Emerson is not dependant on any other portion of the project and will be scheduled as necessary to balance work loads.

The major material is scheduled for delivery to match major work activities.

Relay testing and check out will occur immediately after construction. Relay testing will be conducted by AP/AM internal resources.
