APPROVAL OF MINUTES M/S/Unanimous (Lodigiani/Moreland) approving the Minutes of the regular meeting of June 27, 2017. APPROVAL OF CHECKS AND WARRANTS M/S/Unanimous (Lodigiani/Moreland) approving the total General Fund and Joint Facilities Operating fund expenditures for the month of June, 2017 in the amount of $5,457,670.99; approval of Power Division expenditures for the month of June, 2017 in the amount of $303,659.31; and, authorize the transfer of $4,500,000.00 from the TCB General Fund to the TCB Accounts Payable and Payroll Fund for the payment of regular operating expenses. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Rick Wilburn communicated that he would like to see more water available in Palermo. Asked about any plans to extend a main line to serve more homes and if there was a possibility to use Federal Funding. Bill Bynum also inquired about water to Lone Tree Road and expressed interest in an Ad Hoc committee to work on the water expansion in the Palermo area. Donald Hume communicated that he does not think the agency embraces the mission statement. Insurance company’s do not recognize the current hydrants. Mr. Hume stated he would like to see water in Bangor. Jack Kiely handed out documentation around water rates throughout the state of California. Mr. Kiely cited examples of water rates across the state and who contracts water. Communicated details around the Metropolitan water district and who should be helping pay for the Oroville spillway repairs. He stated that if we added $2.00 per household in that served region it would generate >$2.0M to help with repairs. Mr. Kiely finished with stating that he would like to see the water used locally rather than transferring south. GENERAL MANAGER'S REPORT The General Manager communicated the following: Wall Fire As the Board is aware, the community experienced another challenge this calendar year with the Wall fire that started on July 7, 2017. The fire was within the Agency’s sphere and many of our customers lost homes and other structures. Water delivery infrastructure faced minimal impact; however, a significant problem surfaced as a result of the fire on treated water delivery from the Bangor plant. Many residences pumped water straight out of the ditches in an attempt to save property without issue, but, there were two properties that increased usage via the domestic treatment plant and the system could not keep up with the demand to process raw water. The package plant ran full time and was not able to maintain storage and delivery per demand pull. This highlights two factors: 1) during an emergency event such as fire it is possible to not be able to deliver domestic water to the current 23 customers being served, 2) Expansion of treated water delivery as designed will not support additional customers. The upcoming winter months may also increase sludge and foreign materials entering the open ditch system as a result of the burnt surroundings so a focus on access and cleaning will be critical. The Agency currently has 12 applications for new service in Bangor and many others have reached out inquiring about availability. The team will be evaluating new technologies for water treatment and submitting findings to the board for review. Another customer inquiry has also increased since the fire and that is added fire hydrants. Many customers are now looking at their surrounding areas and searching for the possibility of adding hydrants near their homes. Agriculture Users Group During the June board meeting it was communicated that the Agency will re-engage policy #411 and establish an agricultural water user’s advisory committee. Currently there are three volunteers for this committee and will kick off an initial meeting in August. If any board member has a recommendation for additional participant’s, please communicate and I will reach out to them for interest. Lost Creek Project Phase II Update • Focus is on bridge deck removal to the mid-point of structure • Concrete pier saw cut and removal • North access dam wall structure • DSOD site visit July 12th – Pleased with work progress – No findings • FERC site visit July 13th – Appreciated seeing the work sequence plan in action – Concerned about dam facing corrective actions that need to be addressed • Monthly progress meeting with PG&E conducted on July 19th FINANCE DIVISION MANAGER’S REPORT The finance manager communicated the following: South Feather Relicensing Consulting Services No invoices have been submitted this month by HDR for relicensing consulting services. Total payments to HDR for relicensing services rendered through May 27, 2017 amount to $5,200,655. The budget balance remaining under Task Order 001, Management Plan Development, is $18,355. CalPERS Health Insurance Premiums The 2018 health insurance premium rates have been announced by CalPERS and all of the plans available to Agency employees will see a slight decrease from the 2017 rates. The 2018 cap will be $2,231.95 per month, a 4.5% decrease from 2017. The open enrollment period is from September 11 to October 6, 2017. CalPERS Annual Unfunded Accrued Liability Payment The Agency has been invoiced by CalPERS for the annual payment towards its unfunded accrued liability. The required contribution for this year is $166,144. In 2016, the amount was $130,682. Consistent with our practice in previous years, the entire annual unfunded accrued liability amount will be prepaid, saving the Agency $6,117. 2018 Budget The proposed 2018 Budget Calendar is attached for your reference. The Finance Committee, comprised of Directors Lodigiani and Starr, is scheduled to review the Proposed Budget on Thursday, November 16, 2017, with adoption by the full Board at your November 28, 2017 regularly scheduled meeting.

  • SCE Petition for Declaratory Order
    Troutman Sanders LLP 401 9th Street, N.W., Suite 1000 Washington, D.C. 20004-2134 troutman.com Charles R. Sensiba [email protected] June 17, 2019 Ms. Kimberly D. Bose, Secretary Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 888 First Street, NE Washington, DC 20426 Re: Southern California Edison Company; Petition for Declaratory Order and Request for Expedited Consideration; Project Nos. 67-__, 120-__, 2085-__,2086-__, 2174-__, 2175-__ Dear Secretary Bose: As set forth in the enclosed Petition for Declaratory Order (“Petition”), Southern California Edison Company (“SCE”) respectfully requests the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC” or “Commission”) to declare on an expedited basis that the California State Water Resources Control Board (“SWRCB”) has waived authority under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act1 (“CWA”) for failure to act on SCE’s requests for water quality certification (“WQC”) within the statutorily prescribed one-year time period for all six projects within the Big Creek Hydroelectric System (collectively referred to as the “Big Creek Projects”) that are pending for relicensing before the Commission. For purposes of this Petition, the Big Creek Projects consist of Big Creek Nos. 2A, 8, and Eastwood Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 67); Big Creek No. 3 Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 120); Mammoth Pool Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2085); Vermilion Valley Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2086); Portal Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2174); and Big Creek Nos. 1 and 2 Hydroelectric Project (FERC No. 2175).2 The Commission’s relicensing of the Big Creek Projects has been delayed for well over a decade—and in some instances for nearly 20 years—due in large measure to SWRCB’s consistent annual direction that SCE submit a withdrawal-and-resubmittal letter for the express purpose of attempting to provide SWRCB another year to act on SCE’s WQC requests.

  • Terr–3 Special-Status Plant Populations
    TERR–3 SPECIAL-STATUS PLANT POPULATIONS 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During 2001 and 2002, the review of existing information, agency consultation, vegetation community mapping, and focused special-status plant surveys were completed. Based on California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) Electronic Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California (CNPS 2001a), CDFG’s Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB; CDFG 2003), USDA-FS Regional Forester’s List of Sensitive Plant and Animal Species for Region 5 (USDA-FS 1998), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Species List (USFWS 2003), and Sierra National Forest (SNF) Sensitive Plant List (Clines 2002), there were 100 special-status plant species initially identified as potentially occurring within the Study Area. Known occurrences of these species were mapped. Vegetation communities were evaluated to locate areas that could potentially support special-status plant species. Each community was determined to have the potential to support at least one special-status plant species. During the spring and summer of 2002, special-status plant surveys were conducted. For each special-status plant species or population identified, a CNDDB form was completed, and photographs were taken. The locations were mapped and incorporated into a confidential GIS database. Vascular plant species observed during surveys were recorded. No state or federally listed special-status plant species were identified during special- status plant surveys. Seven special-status plant species, totaling 60 populations, were identified during surveys. There were 22 populations of Mono Hot Springs evening-primrose (Camissonia sierrae ssp. alticola) identified. Two populations are located near Mammoth Pool, one at Bear Forebay, and the rest are in the Florence Lake area.

  • A Comparison of the Environmental Effects of Open-Loop and Closed-Loop Pumped Storage Hydropower April 2020
    A Comparison of the Environmental Effects of Open-Loop and Closed-Loop Pumped Storage Hydropower April 2020 PNNL-29157 Acknowledgments This work was authored by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), operated by Battelle and supported by the HydroWIRES Initiative of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO), under award or contract number DE-AC05-76RL01830. HydroWIRES Initiative The electricity system in the United States is changing rapidly with the large-scale addition of variable renewables. The flexible capabilities of hydropower, including pumped storage hydropower (PSH), make it well-positioned to aid in integrating these variable resources while supporting grid reliability and resilience. Recognizing these challenges and opportunities, WPTO has launched a new initiative known as HydroWIRES: Water Innovation for a Resilient Electricity System.1 HydroWIRES is focused on understanding and supporting the changing role of hydropower in the evolving electricity system in the United States. Through the HydroWIRES initiative, WPTO seeks to understand and drive utilization of the full potential of hydropower resources to help reduce system-wide costs and contribute to electricity system reliability and resilience, now and into the future. HydroWIRES is distinguished in its close engagement with the DOE National Laboratories. Five National Laboratories—Argonne National Laboratory, Idaho National Laboratory, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and PNNL—work as a team to provide strategic insight and develop connections across the DOE portfolio that add significant value to the HydroWIRES initiative. HydroWIRES operates in conjunction with the DOE Grid Modernization Initiative,2 which focuses on the development of new architectural concepts, tools, and technologies that measure, analyze, predict, protect, and control the grid of the future, and on enabling the institutional conditions that allow for quicker development and widespread adoption of these tools and technologies.
