SOCC, our System Operations Control Center located at the diesel plant, is where our 24-hour system dispatchers operate. We have one Supervisor, four full-time system dispatchers, and one mechanic/dispatcher. The system dispatchers operate the diesel engines and monitor our electrical system. We have computers that monitor our generating plants and substations and allow remote control of substation and generating plant equipment and devices. They also take 24-hour trouble calls and dispatch light department after hours trouble crews and other departments after-hours personnel for Water and Sewer, street, parks and Solid Waste Departments in Logan City.
Our Major Electric Resources:
Logan is a member of UAMPS (Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems) along with 32 other cities from St. George to Idaho Falls. UAMPS was created in the 1980's when Logan, Murray City, and others wanted to jointly finance the purchase of a portion of the Hunter II Coal Plant. UAMPS now finances several projects and performs the hourly load dispatching for their members.
Our major point of interconnection to the electric grid is at Mona, Utah. We have a 22 MW allocation of Federal Hydro Power which is part of the CRSP Project (Colorado River Storage Project) at Glen Canyon. We own 13 MW of Hunter II Coal Plant in Emery County, 44 MW of Intermountain Power Project located in Delta, Utah, and 18 MW of Payson Project, a combined cycle gas-fired generating facility in Payson city, Utah. We also own a portion of a transmission line to Craig Colorado. The remainder of our needs comes from non-firm resources, such as the UAMPS Member Generation program. The Craig to Mona Transmission Line, the UAMPS Power Pool and spot market power purchases. Logan has three power plants which together supply approximately 10% of our annual electricity needs.
