The customer must complete a form with applicable information about the interconnection for accounting and safety purposes. All modifications or improvements required to Logan City’s distribution system due to the customer - generating facility shall be paid for by the customer.  This may require the customer to bring their current electrical service up to the standards required by Logan City Policy.
2. After installation of the customer-generating facility and prior to production of energy, the system shall be inspected and approved by the Logan City Building Department and the LCL&P Department. The Customer must also obtain any necessary permits and pay all applicable fees.
3. A bi-directional meter that is capable of measuring power flow in and out of the customers metering equipment shall be installed by the utility (See the Electrical Fees Schedule). The meter will be one that is compatible with standard meter bases required by any customer of equal size and type.
4. A production meter capable of measuring the energy produced from the distributed generation source shall be installed (See the Electrical Fees Schedule).
5. The City shall have the right to inspect a customer-generating facility after interconnection approval is granted, at reasonable hours and with reasonable prior notice to the Customer. If the City discovers that the customer-generating facility is not in compliance with the requirements of this policy, and the noncompliance adversely affects the safety or reliability of the electric distribution system, the City may require the Customer to disconnect the customer-generating facility until compliance is achieved.

1. Testing and Maintenance

Once a Distributed Generation Metering interconnection has been approved under this policy, the City may require a Customer to test or perform maintenance on its facility as per the following:

1. Maintenance or changes to the existing installation;
2. Any manufacturer-recommended testing or maintenance; and any post-installation testing necessary to ensure compliance with IEEE 1547 or to ensure safety.

1. Disconnection and Metering

1. The City shall have the right to disconnect the customer-generating facility in the event it causes system problems. The Customer will have the option of correcting the problem, at which time the system will be re-inspected before beginning operation again.
2. The Customer shall be required to install a manual disconnect located within 10 feet of the meter. The disconnect shall be readily accessible by City authorized personnel and located outside any fencing.
3. The Customer shall be required to meet all current applicable electrical codes (NEC, NESC) and the City’s metering and disconnection requirements that may include but is not limited to the installation of a new meter base and panel and relocation of the electrical service.

1. Liability

1. The Customer shall be responsible for any damage caused by the customer-generating facility to City’s distribution system and/or neighboring services. The Customer shall be responsible for the installation and maintenance of applicable protection equipment, and for any damage caused by improper application, maintenance or faulty equipment. LCL&P shall not be liable directly or indirectly for permitting or continuing to allow an attachment of a Distributed Generation Metering facility, or for the acts or omissions of the customer-generator that cause loss or injury, including death, to any third party.

Logan City Light and Power
Electric Rate Surcharge
Effective July 1, 2006

Purpose

The electric rate surcharge is intended to maintain our financial stability when unexpected events occur which increase energy costs that are outside the control of the Light and Power Department.  The costs that are covered in this surcharge are energy costs for supplying electric power and energy to our customers.  Costs that are not covered under this surcharge include all costs of operation that can be controlled within the department. 

Examples of costs that are included are natural gas prices used for generation of electricity, purchases of electricity through UAMPS that have variability due to market conditions, catastrophic equipment failures of local generation facilities and the cost of other electricity used to supply our needs that has unexpected increases due to market pressures.

Examples of costs that are not to be included in the surcharge include capital construction costs for additions to the electric transmission and distribution system, labor costs, material costs for the maintenance of the system and any other system improvements which could be delayed by management.

Implementation

Each month before the billing cycle begins we will review our power supply costs and compare them to the approved budget.  When an unexpected occurrence in energy markets causes the prices of our energy supply to increase we will calculate the impact of the increase.  We will also attempt to change any variable power supply schedules to offset the increased costs.  When the increased costs cannot be reasonably compensated for, we will implement this surcharge.

The surcharge will be implemented by comparing the total projected MWh’s used by the system and the total cost of providing that energy.  We will then divide the total cost by the total energy to obtain the total unit cost.  The unit costs will be compared and the increased cost will be applied to all MWh’s sold to all customers equally. 

Example:

Projected Cost at Budget Development

July 2006  Budget

Total MWh’s:  45,497   Total Cost:  $2,673,607    Unit Cost:  $58.76 / MWh

New Projection (1^st week of July 2006)

Extreme Heat Wave with temperatures 10 degrees above normal causes prices to soar.

Total MWh’s  48,785   Total Cost:  $2,975,885    Unit Cost  $61.00 / MWh

Surcharge:    $61.00 /MWh  less $58.76  / MWh   =   $2.24 / MWh

In this example a Surcharge of  $0.00224 / kWh   ( or $2.24 / MWh) would be applied to all kWh’s on all bills processed for the month of July 2006.

Reconciliation

For each month that a surcharge is implemented we will reconcile the projected surcharge that was applied to the actual costs of all energy purchased and generated.    Most of the bills are received by the end of the following month.  We will have all costs accounted for and be able to make any needed adjustments to the projected surcharge in the second month following the charge.  For July the actual adjustments will be on the September bill for any discrepancies of projected versus actual costs.  The differential between the projected costs and actual costs will be either credited or added to the surcharge for September.  If no surcharge is needed for September but there is a credit or additional surcharge due from July, the July credit or addition will be applied to the September bill.

Example:

This example assumes that we forecast a total cost of $61.00 /MWH which equals a surcharge of $2.24 / MWH ($0.00224 per kWh).  When the bills were received the actual costs came to $60.50 / MWH.  We would then apply a $74,547 rebate to the September projected kWh’s.  In the following example the $74,547 rebate would be applied to the projected MWh’s for September which would equal a $1.92 / MWh rebate.
