CITY OF LOGAN LIGHT & POWER DEPARTMENT
RATE SCHEDULE #8
HIGH VOLTAGE SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICE
FOR CUSTOMERS WITH CRSP ALLOCATIONS
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 1, 2007
AVAILABILITY:
This service is available to Customers with a contract with United States Department of Energy’s Western Area Power Administration (Western) for an allocation of Colorado River Storage Project Power (CRSP), provided that such allocation represents no more than 15 percent of the Customer’s annual power requirements. Supplemental power will be delivered at any point on the City’s interconnected system where there are facilities of adequate capacity. If an extension of the existing 46 kV lines and additional equipment will be required, the Customer will be responsible for such line extension costs, easements and additional equipment costs.
APPLICATION:
This schedule is for alternating current, three-phase electric service supplied at approximately 46,000 volts and for supplemental service loads of 5 megawatts or greater, through up to two (2) points of delivery for all service required on the premises.
The Customer shall adhere to all service and billing requirements including the installation of approved metering equipment as per Logan City Electric Service Requirements.
MONTHLY BILL:
CUSTOMER SERVICE CHARGE: $300.00 per month.
MINIMUM BILLING: The monthly Customer Service Charges plus appropriate demand and energy charges.
DEMAND AND ENERGY CHARGES:
DEMAND:
The kilowatt demand is based on the maximum 15-minute period of Customer’s greatest use during the month measured to the nearest kW, less the Customer’s CRSP Demand. In the event the Customer reduces or ceases operation or receipt of service for periods of one month or longer, the Customer will be required to pay for at least 65% of the maximum demand as measured during the previous twelve months along with Customer Service charges through the balance of the Contract Term.
The Customer’s CRSP Demand shall be the applicable Monthly Capacity (as defined in the Customer’s contract with Western) that the Customer is entitled to receive and that is scheduled during a billing period pursuant to the Customer’s contract with Western for Firm Electric Service, plus additional excess capacity that the Customer may purchase from Western and have scheduled; provided that the Customer shall not purchase such additional excess capacity if, after doing so, the Customer’s total purchases of capacity from Western in any month would exceed 12% of the Customer’s demand purchased from the City; and further provided that the amount of such capacity shall be reduced by 0.4% to account for transformer and line losses on the City’s electric system. In the event that Customer metering equipment is installed on the secondary side of the Customer’s equipment, appropriate additional losses will be applied to the CRSP Demand delivered to the Customer.
ENERGY:
The Customer will be billed for electric energy in kilowatt-hours delivered by the City to the Customer during the billing period, as shown by or computed from the readings of the City’s energy meters, less the customer’s CRSP Energy.
The Customer’s CRSP Energy shall be the applicable Monthly Energy (as defined in the Customer’s contract with Western) that the Customer is entitled to receive and that is scheduled during a billing period pursuant to the Customer’s contract with Western for Firm Electric Service, plus additional surplus hydro energy that the Customer may purchase from Western and have scheduled; provided that the Customer shall not purchase such additional surplus hydro energy, if after doing so, the Customer’s total purchases of energy from Western in any month would exceed 12% of the Customer’s energy purchased from the City; and further provided that the amount of such energy shall be reduced by 0.4% to account for transformer and line losses on the City’s electric system. In the event that Customer metering equipment is installed on the secondary side of the Customer’s equipment, appropriate additional losses will be applied to the CRSP Energy delivered to the Customer.
POWER FACTOR:
This rate will be based on the Customer maintaining at all times a power factor between 95% lagging and 95% leading, or higher, as determined by measurement. If the Power Factor at the time of the monthly peak demand is found to be less than 95% lagging or leading, the monthly kilowatt demand, as recorded by the City’s meter, will be increased by ¾ of 1% for every 1% that the Power Factor is less than 95%.
METERING REQUIREMENTS:
Metering for this type of service will require an electronic meter capable of measuring 15-minute demand intervals, hourly and 15-minute energy usage, monthly totals, and previous months totals for several quantities, including but not limited to, kilowatts, kilovars, kilo-volt-amperes and kilowatt-hours. The exact type of meter will be determined by the Logan City Light and Power Department. All costs for the installation of metering equipment will be the responsibility of the Customer. All meters for this rate will require remote telephone line access supplied by the Customer.
CONTRACT TERM:
The minimum term for this rate is one year. Seasonal service is not available under this rate.
FORCE MAJEURE:
Neither the City nor Customer shall be subject to any liability or damages due to the inability of the City to serve the Customer’s load due to lack of available power and energy or other conditions beyond the City's control. In the event of natural disasters or acts of God such as earthquakes, floods, or severe storms, neither party shall be liable for damages due to lack of ability for operations which affect the other party economically. Should any of the foregoing occur, the minimum billing demands that would otherwise be applicable under this Schedule shall be waived and Customer will have no liability for service charges until such time as Customer is reasonably able to resume service.
CONNECTION FEE:
Each time a Customer, eligible to receive electric service under this schedule, begins to receive electric service at a point of delivery not previously used, or at a point of delivery which has been used previously by another Customer, or each time a customer changes his point of delivery or reconnects after voluntary disconnection to the same point of delivery, that Customer shall be responsible for such costs of moving and purchasing the necessary equipment and fixtures required to make such connection.
COORDINATION OF CRSP POWER:
It is the responsibility of the Customer to have its CRSP power delivered to the City’s interconnected electric system at the Logan City Green Canyon Substation, or to another point acceptable to the City. The Customer shall provide the City with approved monthly schedules for CRSP power on a seasonal basis, at the same time it provides such schedules to Western. In addition, the Customer shall promptly provide the City with copies of all electric schedules and billings between the Customer and Western.
The City shall be responsible for the hourly scheduling of the Customer’s CRSP power and will arrange for hourly deliveries in the same manner and under the same constraints as may be imposed on hourly deliveries of the City’s own allocation of CRSP power. The City shall deliver the Customer’s CRSP power from the Green Canyon Substation, or other agreed upon point of delivery, to the Customer’s 46 kV points of delivery. The charge for such service is included in the Demand and Energy Charges associated with the Rate Schedule.
