AN ORDINANCE relating to the City Light Department; authorizing execution of the Tailwater Encroachment Losses Compensation Delivery Agreement, the 2005 Memorandum of Agreement, and the Boundary Transformer Agreement, which together will provide for cost-effective transmission service for the City of Seattle in the Boundary Project area and enhanced electric grid reliability. WHEREAS, Article 48 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") license for the Boundary Project requires that the City Light Department ("City") compensate Public Utility District No. 1 of Pend Oreille County, Washington ("District") for the encroachment of the Boundary Project's reservoir into the Box Canyon Project's tailwater; and WHEREAS, the City and the District have negotiated the Tailwater Encroachment Losses Compensation Delivery Agreement to provide for computation and delivery of encroachment compensation to the District; and WHEREAS, Article 49 of the City's FERC license provides that the City assign up to 48 megawatts (MW) from the Boundary Project to the District ("Article 49 Power") and the District wants to clarify the interpretation of Article 49 with respect to the District's sale of surplus energy after July 31, 2005, and until FERC issues a new Boundary Project license; and WHEREAS, on February 14, 1999, the City and the District entered into the Energy Delivery and Exchange Agreement, and this agreement, requiring the District to schedule a minimum of 60 percent of its maximum Article 49 Power entitlement in all hours, expires on July 31, 2005; and WHEREAS, the City wants the District to continue scheduling a minimum of 60 percent of its maximum Article 49 Power entitlement in all hours, effective August 1, 2005, to enable the City to reduce Boundary Project demand on the regional transmission grid; and WHEREAS, the City and the District have negotiated the 2005 Memorandum of Agreement to provide, among other considerations, clarification of the interpretation of Article 49 and extension of the District's minimum scheduling requirement for Article 49 Power; and WHEREAS, the Bonneville Power Administration ("Bonneville"), the City, and the District have negotiated the Boundary Transformer Agreement, providing for installation and operation of a transformer and breaker in the Boundary Substation to allow for the costeffective delivery of Article 49 Power and tailwater encroachment compensation from the Boundary Project to the District via shared use of a future Boundary transformer and interconnected facilities, including the City's 115-kV Boundary Tap Line; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY OF SEATTLE AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The Superintendent of the City Light Department ("City"), or his designee, is hereby authorized to enter into three agreements, entitled: (1) Tailwater Encroachment Losses Compensation Delivery Agreement, (2) 2005 Memorandum of Agreement, and (3) Boundary Transformer Agreement, all substantially in the form of the agreements attached to this ordinance as Exhibits A, B, and C, respectively. The Tailwater Encroachment Losses Compensation Delivery Agreement (Exhibit A) provides for computation and delivery of the encroachment compensation owed to the Public Utility District No. 1 of Pend Oreille County, Washington ("District") by the City pursuant to Article 48 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") license for the Boundary Project. The 2005 Memorandum of Agreement (Exhibit B) provides for an interpretive clarification of Article 49 of the Boundary FERC license as requested by the District; renewal of the District's obligation to schedule a minimum of 60 percent of its Article 49 Power during all hours of the day; and several other provisions related to the cost-sharing and cooperative operation of the future Boundary transformer. The Boundary Transformer Agreement (Exhibit C) provides for cooperative planning, acquisition, installation, and operation of a transformer and breaker at Boundary Substation and shared use of the interconnected transmission path, which will provide for cost-effective transmission of Article 49 Power and encroachment compensation, as well as enhanced electric grid reliability for the Bonneville Power Administration ("Bonneville"), the City, and the District in the Boundary area. Section 2. Council approval shall be required for any agreement to revise the data collection or computation procedures, pursuant to Section 12 of the Tailwater Encroachment Losses Compensation delivery Agreement, which would likely result in more than a ten percent revision to thee amount of compensation to be paid to the District. Section 3. Any acts taken in furtherance of this ordinance, but prior to its effective date, are hereby ratified and confirmed. Section 4. This ordinance shall take effect and be in force thirty (30) days from and after its approval by the Mayor, but if not approved and returned by the Mayor within ten (10) days after presentation, it shall take effect as provided by Municipal Code Section 1.04.020.

The City and the District are each sometimes referred to individually in this Encroachment Delivery Agreement as "Party"; the City and the District are sometimes referred to together in this Encroachment Delivery Agreement as "Parties." WITNESSETH, WHEREAS, the District owns and operates a hydroelectric project, known as the Box Canyon Project, located on the Pend Oreille River in Pend Oreille County, Washington; and WHEREAS, the City owns and operates a hydroelectric project, known as the Boundary Project, located on the Pend Oreille River downstream of the Box Canyon Project in Pend Oreille County, Washington; and WHEREAS, operation of the Boundary Project can result in losses to Box Canyon Project capacity, power, and energy production, when the Boundary Project reservoir encroaches into the Box Canyon Project tailwater; and WHEREAS, Article 48 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") license for the Boundary Project requires that the City compensate the District for the encroachment of the Boundary Project's reservoir into the Box Canyon Project tailwater; and WHEREAS, on December 20, 1965, the City and the District entered into an agreement (the "1965 Agreement") relating to encroachment compensation and providing for the formation of a Board of Engineers to develop an appropriate encroachment losses calculation methodology; and WHEREAS, the 1970 Report of the Board of Engineers entitled, "Boundary Project F.P.C. License Article 48 Backwater Encroachment on Box Canyon Power Plant," established the methodology the Parties have been using to determine on an hourly basis the loss of capacity, power, and energy production resulting from the Boundary Project reservoir's encroachment into the Box Canyon Project tailwater; and WHEREAS, the Parties now believe that with advances in data collection and computational procedures they can mutually benefit from a simplification of the encroachment calculation methodology; and WHEREAS, the City owns a 115-kV transmission line approximately 8.9 miles long that extends from the Boundary Substation of Bonneville Power Administration ("BPA") to the BPA's Metaline Falls Tap near the town of Metaline Falls in Pend Oreille County ("Boundary Tap Line"); and WHEREAS, on February 16, 1996, the Parties entered into the Boundary Transmission Tap Line Agreement that provides, among other things, for the Parties to share equally the capacity of the reinforced Boundary Tap Line; and WHEREAS, in 1996 the City and the District amended the 1965 Agreement to require that the City deliver tailwater encroachment losses compensation to the District at the 230-kV terminals of a Washington Water Power transformer at which the Boundary Tap Line terminated in the Boundary Substation; and WHEREAS, Washington Water Power's transformer has been removed from Boundary Substation, and BPA, the City, and the District have negotiated the Boundary Transformer Agreement providing for, among other things, the installation and operation of a replacement transformer ("Boundary Transformer") at the Boundary Substation; and WHEREAS, the City's obligation to deliver encroachment compensation to the District is currently netted after-the-fact against the City's energy purchases from the District pursuant to the Power Purchase Contract executed between the Parties in 1956; and WHEREAS, the Power Purchase Contract with the District expires after July 31, 2005, and thereafter the City intends to deliver encroachment compensation directly to the District; and WHEREAS, the Parties do not expect the Boundary Transformer to be installed prior to 2009 and have agreed that the City's obligation to deliver encroachment compensation until the earlier of such time as the Boundary Transformer is operating or October 31, 2009 should be satisfied by the City's payment of money to the District; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the Parties agree as follows: Section 1 Definitions 1.1 "BPA" shall mean the Bonneville Power Administration or its successor agency. 1.2 "Boundary Transformer" shall mean the future 230/115 kV, 100/133/167 MVA (OA/FA/FA) non-LTC transformer with a 13.8 kV, 2-4 MVA tertiary winding to be located in the Boundary Substation, which will be interconnected to the north terminus of the Boundary Tap Line, pursuant to the Boundary Transformer Agreement. 1.3 "Heavy Load Hours" shall mean the time period starting at 0600 prevailing local time and ending at 2200 prevailing local time each day, Monday through Sunday. 1.4 "Light Load Hours" shall mean all hours of the day that are not Heavy Load Hours. 1.5 "Operating Information" shall mean the reservoir elevation, generation output, station service consumption, and other data necessary to calculate TEL. 1.6 "Tailwater Encroachment Losses" or "TEL" shall mean the difference between the theoretical output of the Box Canyon Project in the absence of the Boundary Project and the actual output of the Box Canyon Project during operation of the Boundary Project as calculated according to the methodology established in Exhibit 1. Secondary effects of tailwater encroachment, including but not limited to changes in storage capability of the Box Canyon reservoir, shall be excluded from TEL. 1.7 "USGS" shall mean the United States Geological Survey, or its successor agency, responsible for federal stream gauging on the Pend Oreille River. Section 2 Term This Encroachment Delivery Agreement shall be in effect upon its execution by both Parties until the earlier of: (a) the date on which the operating license for Boundary Project issued to the City by the FERC expires (including annual licenses under the Federal Power Act), without renewal or extension; or (b) the license to operate Boundary Project is issued, transferred or assigned to an entity other than the City. Section 3 Service to be Provided The City shall compensate the District for TEL, as defined in Section 1.6, by providing the District with energy or other compensation as provided below in Sections 7 or 9. The Parties agree that by compensating the District in accordance with this Encroachment Delivery Agreement, the City satisfies its obligations under Article 48 of the FERC license for the Boundary Project or under a comparable article of a successor FERC license held by the City for the Boundary Project. Section 4 Operating Information and Maintenance of Data 4.1 Unless the USGS makes Operating Information directly available to the City, the District shall provide the City with the Operating Information for the Box Canyon Project necessary to compute the TEL. Data provided by the District shall include, but not be limited to, the tailwater and forebay elevations, generation output and energy consumed by station service. Data provided by the City shall include, but not be limited to, the USGS river elevation, stream flow, and computed TEL data. 4.2 The City shall develop, collect, and maintain the data necessary to compute TEL. The City shall maintain for no less than six (6) years from each date of recording such data or the date of receiving such data, whichever is later, a record of: (a) the generation output, station service, and reservoir elevation readings provided by the District; (b) the reservoir elevations and stream flow measurements provided by the USGS; (c) the computed TEL; (d) the amount of hourly transmission loss compensation BPA charged the City, if any, resulting from TEL compensation deliveries the City makes to the District via the Boundary Transformer; and (e) the hourly schedules of TEL less transmission losses that are delivered to the District by the City. 4.3 During periods when the data necessary to calculate TEL are unavailable or unreliable, the City may estimate such information; provided that the City shall first request such missing data from the District, and the District shall provide such data, if available, within 10 days of a request by the City. The City shall clearly mark estimated data as such. 4.4 Either Party shall, upon reasonable notice, make available to the other Party its recorded Operating Information for review and auditing purposes. Unless otherwise mutually agreed, each Party shall make available and deliver Operating Information to the other Party in electronic format, computer-readable format. Additional information reasonably requested by either Party shall be provided as mutually agreed. Section 5 Computing Tailwater Encroachment Losses 5.1 The Parties shall calculate TEL, as defined in Section 1.6 of this agreement, by simulating the theoretical output of the Box Canyon Project in the absence of encroachment from the Boundary Project and comparing that theoretical output to the actual output of Box Canyon Project during operation and encroachment from the Boundary Project. As much as possible, the simulation process shall use measured physical parameters. 5.2 Effective August 1, 2005, the Parties shall no longer use the methodology and procedures established by the December 1970 Report of the Board of Engineers and shall instead use and apply the methodology described in the Principles and Procedures for Calculating TEL, attached hereto as Attachment 1 and incorporated into this Encroachment Delivery Agreement by this reference, for calculating compensation due the District under the City's Boundary Project FERC license for all loss of capacity, power, and energy production resulting from the Boundary Project reservoir's encroachment into the Box Canyon Project tailwater. Section 6 Errors and Changes 6.1 A Party that discovers an error in the calculation of the TEL shall promptly notify the other Party so that corrections can be made in an expeditious manner. The City shall correct errors and make any necessary recalculations, as follows: (a) where the date of the beginning of the error is known, the City shall recalculate TEL back to the date of the error or back 12 months, whichever period is shorter; (b) where the date of the beginning of the error is unknown, the City shall recalculate TEL back for a period of 12 months; or (c) as the Parties may otherwise agree. 6.2 The Parties shall schedule delivery of compensation for corrected TEL as provided in Section 7, below, or as the Parties may otherwise agree. Section 7 Scheduling 7.1 Upon the energization date of the Boundary Transformer or October 1, 2009, whichever is earlier, the City shall deliver compensation to the District for TEL in the manner and in accordance with the scheduling criteria established by this section. 7.2 By or before 09:00 hours prevailing local time on the day following each day the District has experienced TEL, the City will provide the District with the calculation of TEL compensation for that day and a corresponding hourly schedule for the delivery of TEL compensation to be delivered on the seventh day following the day the District has experienced TEL. 7.3 Unless otherwise agreed and subject to any adjustments made under this section, the City shall schedule delivery of TEL compensation to the District on a daily basis and shall make delivery of TEL compensation on the seventh day following each day the District has experienced TEL. The City will schedule delivery of TEL compensation in whole megawatt-hours (MWh) on the appropriate prescheduling day as established by customary business practices. 7.4 The City shall deliver TEL compensation to the District at the points of delivery, described below, as follows: (a) when Boundary Project is generating sufficient capacity, at the high side of the Boundary Transformer; (b) when Boundary Project is not generating (i.e., it is off-line), at other points of interconnection between BPA and the District to which the City can redirect transmission capacity in an economical manner under its transmission service agreement(s) with BPA; (c) when Boundary Project is not generating sufficient capacity to satisfy the TEL schedule, including adjustments, at the high side of the Boundary Transformer and/or at other points of interconnection between BPA and the District to which the City can redirect transmission capacity in an economical manner under its transmission service agreement(s) with BPA, as reasonably proposed by the City; or (d) at any other delivery point as the Parties may otherwise agree. 7.5 To accommodate Daylight Savings Time changes, the Parties will adjust scheduling of delivery of TEL compensation as follows: Each April, on the 23-hour day that Daylight Savings Time begins, the City will withhold from delivering that portion of TEL compensation otherwise scheduled for delivery during the hour ending 0200, as reflected in the TEL calculation and schedule for the 24-hour day seven days earlier, and will, instead, schedule delivery of TEL compensation for the missing hour seven days later when compensation for the hour ending 0200 is missing from the TEL calculation and schedule for the 23-hour day. Each October, on the 25-hour day when Daylight Savings Time ends, the Parties shall schedule over a 25-hour day by filling the extra hour ending 0200 with zero (0) megawatts because no energy was scheduled for that extra hour in the daily TEL schedule that was produced seven days earlier. Then, the energy of the extra hour ending 0200 that appears on the daily TEL schedule as a result of the extra hour ending 0200 on the day that Daylight Savings Time ends shall be added to the energy schedule seven days later and scheduled over the 24hour day. 7.6 The Parties may adjust delivery schedules for: (a) transmission losses compensation as provided in Section 8; (b) correction of errors as provided in Section 6; (c) adjustments for Daylight Savings Time as described above; or (d) other factors, as the Parties may otherwise agree. 7.7 The Parties agree to revise the provisions of this section as needed to be consistent with customary business practices of the time, such revision to be documented in writing signed or otherwise acknowledged by both Parties. Section 8 Transmission Losses Compensation The District shall compensate the City for any transmission losses compensation the City may owe BPA, if any, resulting from TEL compensation deliveries the City makes to the District via the Boundary Transformer. Unless the Parties otherwise agree, the City shall deduct from the TEL compensation calculations and delivery schedules any hourly transmission loss compensation it may owe BPA, pursuant to the City's transmission service agreement with BPA, resulting from TEL compensation deliveries the City makes to the District via the Boundary Transformer. Section 9 Financial Settlement Option 9.1 The Parties agree that during the period beginning August 1, 2005, and until the earlier of the date upon which the Boundary Transformer is energized and fully operational or October 31, 2009, the City's obligation to compensate the District for TEL shall be satisfied by the City's payment of monthly financial settlements. The calculation of monthly financial settlements shall be based on the hourly TEL compensation as it would have been delivered pursuant to Section 7 and the Dow Jones Firm Mid-C Daily Price Index for Light Load Hours and/or Heavy Load Hours, as the case may be. During this period, the settlement process and payment terms shall be as follows: 9.1.1 On or before the 10th of September 2005, and on or before the 10th calendar day of each succeeding month thereafter, the City shall calculate the TEL in accordance with this Encroachment Delivery Agreement and submit for the District's approval a monthly summary of the hourly TEL as these would have otherwise been scheduled pursuant to Section 7 multiplied by the appropriate hourly index price. 9.1.2 Upon approval of the summary provided in Section 9.1.1, the District shall invoice the City for the total computed value of TEL for the month via facsimile notice sent to the billing contact listed below in Section 10. 9.1.3 The City shall pay each monthly invoice within 10 days of receipt, except that when the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or City holiday, the due date shall be the next business day. Invoices not paid in full on or before the close of business on the due date shall be subject to an interest charge, applied each day to the unpaid balance, calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate for Large Banks as reported in the Wall Street Journal, plus three (3) percent. The applicable interest rate shall be the rate reported on the first day of the month in which payment is received. 9.2 After the Boundary Transformer commences full-time operation or October 31, 2009, whichever is earlier, the City may, subject to the mutual agreement of the District, satisfy its obligation to compensate the District for TEL, or any portion thereof, by the City's payment of financial settlements. The Parties shall confirm in writing signed by both Parties the agreed price and payment terms for financial settlements reached under this subsection. Section 10 Notices Any notice required under this Encroachment Delivery Agreement shall be made as indicated below. Either Party may change its contact information set forth below by giving the other Party written notice of such changes in accordance with the provisions of this section. 10.1 Notices of an operating nature shall be made orally or in writing to the other Party's primary and secondary points of contact as follows: Primary Operations Contact: Secondary Operations Contact: PUD No. 1 of Pend Oreille County PUD No. 1 of Pend Oreille County 130 N.

THE CITY OF SEATTLE, PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 1 CITY LIGHT DEPARTMENT OF PEND OREILLE COUNTY, WASHINGTON _________________________ _________________________ Jorge Carrasco Robert Geddes Superintendent General Manager Attachment 1: Principles and Procedures for Calculating Tailwater Encroachment Losses (TEL) Page 10 of 10 Page 1 of 10 Exhibit A to Ordinance PRINCIPLES AND PROCEDURES FOR CALCULATING TAILWATER ENCROACHMENT LOSSES (TEL) The Parties agree that tailwater encroachment losses (TEL) for Box Canyon Project shall be calculated based on the principle that encroachment losses are equivalent to the theoretical generation output without encroachment minus actual generation output after encroachment. Thus, TEL shall be calculated from the following equation: TEL = Gn Gm Gn = Gn1 + Gn2 + Gn3 + Gn4 SS0 = SS / (Gm1 + Gm2 + Gm3 + Gm4) Gm = Gm1 + SS0 * Gm1 + Gm2 + SS0 * Gm2 + Gm3 + SS0 * Gm3 + Gm4 + SS0 * Gm4 GHn = FBm TWn GHm = FBm TWm Where TEL = tailwater encroachment losses Gn = sum of generation from all units without encroachment Gm = sum of generation from all units with encroachment Gni (where i = 1, 2, 3 or 4) = individual unit generation without encroachment Gmi (where i = 1, 2, 3 or 4) = individual unit generation with encroachment (measured) SS = total energy used for station service (measured) SS0 = normalized energy used for station service GHn = plant gross head without encroachment GHm = plant gross head with encroachment FBm = forebay elevation (measured) TWn = tailwater elevation without encroachment TWm = tailwater elevation with encroachment (measured) Following are step-by-step instructions for calculating hourly TEL: 1. For each hour of the day, determine each of the four Box Canyon units power output (Gm1, Gm2, Gm3, and Gm4) from watt-hour readings exactly on the hour of interest. 2. For each hour of the day, determine the total energy used for station service (SS) on the hour of interest. 3. Determine the average Box Canyon intake forebay elevation (FBm) for each hour, by averaging the four 15-minute interval readings from the District's forebay gauge: exactly on the hour of interest, 15 minutes after the hour, 30 minutes after the hour, and 45 minutes after the hour. 4. Determine the average Box Canyon tailwater elevation (TWm) immediately downstream of the powerhouse for each hour, by averaging the four 15-minute interval readings from the USGS gauge no. 12396500 Pend Oreille River Below Box Canyon near Ione, Washington (use 02_00065 gauge height readings). 5. Determine the average hourly discharge in CFS from Box Canyon Project for each hour, by averaging the four 15-minute interval readings from the USGS gauge no. 12396500 Pend Oreille River Below Box Canyon near Ione, Washington (use 01_00060 discharge readings). The USGS discharge data may be adjusted and/or averaged to smooth transient variability through an algorithm provided by USGS, or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties. 6. Compute the unencroached tailwater elevation (TWn ) corresponding to the hourly discharge as obtained from step (5) using USGS Rating Table for Pend Oreille River below Box Canyon Dam Near Ione, Washington (use USGS Rating Table No. 8, October 1, 1966). 7. Compute plant gross heads with (GHm) and without (GHn) encroachment. 8. Based on Box Canyon turbine-generator's power-discharge-head relationship as established by the December 1970 Report of the Board of Engineers, determine individual unit turbine discharge (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4) from individual unit power output (Gm1, Gm2, Gm3, and Gm4) that has been adjusted for station service energy and plant gross head with encroachment (GHm). 9. Using the same power-discharge-head relationship, determine individual unit power output without encroachment (Gn1, Gn2, Gn3, and Gn4) from unit turbine discharge (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4) as derived from step (8) and plant gross head without encroachment (GHn). 10. TEL is calculated to the nearest kWh. Since TEL is scheduled in whole MWh, the amount of TEL to be scheduled for each hour shall be determined by rounding down to the nearest integer. Fractions of a MWh of TEL that are not scheduled due to such rounding shall be carried over to subsequent hours and accumulated until the sum of the total accumulated unscheduled TEL is at least one MWh, at which time the integer amount so carried over shall be added to the scheduled TEL of the hour and any fraction then remaining shall be carried over to subsequent hours to be accumulated with later MWh fractions, as before.
