C .' Additional Informa't ion Requested of KCPL 4

A significant[ document search has undertaken beginning immediately upon

' request with the attached results. Should additional relevant documents be found that.are considered responsive to NRC's inquiry, they will be provided, but the' attached information i= provided now to facilitate the review by the' Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

~

We also need -copies of correspondence and interof fice memoranda pertaining to activities of Kansas City Power & Light Company as follows:

Item 1 The purcliase by KCPL of the City of Armstrong's electric distribution system.

Response-The correspondence relating to Applicant KCPL's purchase of the City of Armstrong, Missouri distribution system is attached as Exhibits C.1-1 through C.1-13.

Item 2 KCPL's service to the City ~ of Osawatomie and Baldwin City, Kansas at J.

. wholesale.

Response

It is assumed that the request for information on service to Osawatomie and Baldwin City "at ' wholesale" is intended to obtain more. information related to the response previously supplied under Regulatory Guide 9.3 B.l.f. .

(1) transmitted to you May 6,1980. In that response, it was indicated that osawatomie and Baldwin City are "new partial bulk power supply customers".

Both cities have firm power service available under their Municipal .

Participation Agreements and have requested such service from Applicant KCPL to satisfy partical city reqdirements. Generally, the request for service i

is verbal, and KCPL then confirms the reservation in writing. Attached find correspondence relating to the firm power reservations by the cities ~

as Exhibits C.2-1 through C.2-15. Also attached for Baldwin City is the documentation leading up to the execution of the Municipal Participation Agreement. The correspondence relating to the Osawatomic contract was previously supplied under this docket in the original antitrust review prior to.the issuance of'the construction permit.

1 Item 3 KCPL's deletion of Associated Electric Cooperative, Inc as a wholesale 3

customer.

Response

Associated Electric Cooperative (AEC) is a large generation and transmission cooperative covering the entire State of Missouri. Applicant KCPL had for years served at wholesale a portion of one of AEC's distribution cooperatives that is isolated from AEC's transmission system. Because of KCPL's rising

' wholesale rate levels, AEC chose to begin serving the cooperative with 'its own generation and utilize KCPL for transmission service only. Correspondence

relating to 'this change is attached as Exhibits C.3-1 through C.3-4.

. . .- . . ~ . _ _ , _ . .

Item 4 KCPL's decision to of fer the City of Ottawa, Kansas a Municipal Participation Agreement replacement for Rate Schedule FPC no 70.

(Please provide this new agreement.)

Response ~

Little documentation exists for the decision to offer Ottawa, Kansas a Municipal Participation Agreement-(MPA).

As stated below in Section D, Applicant KCPL has three basicLtypes-of contract. Ottawa, a generating municipal, is the same class. of 1 customer as Osawatomie, Garnett and other generating municipals.

Ottawa intends to continue generating che bulk of its own requirements and rely on KCPL for supplemental services. Tggrefore, the MPA was offered as the appropriate contract. Correspondence relating to the Ottawa MPA is attached as Exhibits C.4-1 through C.4-6.

Virtually identical contracts have been entered into since 1975 with the-cities of Osawatomie, Garnett and Baldwin City, in Kansas, and the cities of Carrollton and Marshall in Missouri.

Item 5 KCPL's decision to provide transmission services for the following cities:

Garnett, Kansas Osawatomie, Kansas Kansas City, Kansas Independence, Missouri Higginsville, Missouri

Response

The cities of Garnett and Osawatomie, Kansas and Independence, Missouri re-quested that Applicant KCPL provide transmission service' between the re-

~

spective cities and the City of Kansas City, Kansas so that the cities could purchase non-firm power and energy from Kansas City, Kansas. The Cities of Higgini.ville, Missouri and Kansas City, Kansas requested that-Applicant provide transission service so that the cities could receive SouthwesternPower Administration hydroelectric power and energy to which they were entitled. In all cases, Applicant has agreed to provide trans-mission servi..e. Correspondence is attached as Exhibits C.5-1 through C.5-30.

Also attached as Exhibits C.5-31 and C.5-32 are copies of the Proposed Conditions signed by KCPL prior to issuance of the construction permit under this docket, in which KCPL agrees to provide transmission service.

Transmission service schedules are in ef fect for the named cities with the exception of Higginsville. The Higginsville contractual arrangpments are under review by the city in draft form. Execution is expected to take place within the next month.

m. ,

Item 6 KCPL's response to the Kansas Municipal Energy Agency's request for owner-ship participation, firm power, supplemental power services, and trans-mission services.

_ Response Attached as Exhibits C.6-1 through C.6-20 is the correspondence with the Kansas Municipal Energy Agency (KMEA). KMEA was recently formed by merger of the Northwest Kansas Agency and elements of the Eastern Kansas Agency.

Additional Information Requested of the Applicants Item 1 In addition, please provide copies of contracts, agreements and rate schedules (not previously provided) ~ which are representative of the range of wholesale and coordination services Applicants offer to current and future wholesale customers (i.e., full requirements, partial require-ments, transmission services, interconnection agreements, etc) . . If.these documents have not been finalized, please provide a copy of the latest available draft.

KG&E Response Documents representative of the range of KG&E's wholesale and coordination services are attached as Exhibits D.1-1 through D.1-11. The specific examples-provided are:

Rural Electric Cooperatives Customers Exhibit D.1 Agreement between KG&E and Butler Rural Electric Coop Assn Inc

1:

.s KCPL Response Applicant KCPL has three types of agreements that are representative of wholesale and coordination services offered to wholesale customers.

.a. Wholesale Firm Power Contract (attached hereto as Exhibit D.2-1) for total requirements customers that have litt.'.e or no generation of their own.

b. Transmission Service Agreement (attached to Exhibit C.3-4) for a customer that requests only transmission service.

c. Municipal Participation Agreement (attached to Exhibit C.4-6) for generating customers that request a variety of services such as economy, emergency, reserve sharing and transmission. The fact that the cities are generating municipals that operate on a firm basis entitles them to the benefits of this type of wide range coordinating agreement.

Item 2 In response to Question 1.b there is no discussion of the manual broker-age scheme which was recently instituted among "Mo-Kan" operating systems.

Information related to KCPL and KG&E's perception of the potential effects of this scheme on Applicant's operating practices would be useful in this antitrust review.

General Response KG&E and KCPL each participate in the manual brokerage scheme which was instituted among MOKAN member systems in March 1980. The brokerage scheme provides information to each company each hour regarding the opportunties for short-term economy purchases and sales between member systems.

KG&E Response For many years KG&E has maintained close contact with each neighboring system and has exchanged system information on an hour-by-hour basis.

Through these exchanges of information, KG&E has bought and sold con-siderable amounts of energy as a means of minbnizing systen costs. As an example, in 1979 KG&E bought 416 GWH for its own use and sold 404 GWH from its own generation. Each of these amounts are for hour-by-hour transactions, but do not include an additional 796 GWH which were bought and then resold to third parties, again on an hour-by-hour basis.

These amounts of energy compare to KG&E's 1979 total system load of 7,189 GWH.

Long before the initiation of the brokerage system the planning and operating practices of KG&E were already based on extensive use of energy purchases and sales to improve economies of operation. The brokerage system referred to herein should not be considered as a new method of operation, but as a refinement in the method of exchanging information regarding the opportunities for economy interchange. For this reason, KG&E does not believe the manual brokerage scheme as recently instituted will cause any significant changes in their operating practices.

-r, : .

ee.

KCPL' Response:

The MOKAN_ economy brokerage'syctem that was-recently implemented is primarily-a means of formalizing what KCPL' has always done. KCPL has-

.in past years dealt. in economic transactions with other systems. The_.

brokerage system is certainly a refinement for record keeping purposes and it also' af fords an opportunity to effect the relatively minor hourly transactions that may have previously been~ overlooked.

. Item 3 In addition, please provide more specific information, if~available, on-how KEPCo plans to meet its lead requirements before and af ter WCGS is.

on line.

Responso KEPCo's plans for meeting its~ load requirements before and after WCGS is on line have not changed from that 'previously filed. -Supplemental power and energy that KEPCo will . require to supply its members needs beyond that supplied by WCGS'and hydroelectric power from the Southwestern Power Administration will be purchased by KEPCo from the overlying investor owned utilities that currently. sell power to KEPCo's members.

For additional discussion, see Mr Glenn L Koester's -letter of September 11, 1979 to Mr Argil Toalston of the NRC which^ supplied the Appendix L responses for KEPCo in conjunction with our construction permit amendment application to allow KEPCo ownership of WCGS.

-j;';';- At our meeting last Friday with of ficials of Erie, Kansas, it

_was concluded that if we were to accomplish an interconnection with Erie

~_ s uo u. .. -

• "~ Lt would be necessary to build approximately 9 miles of 69 kv line from

--the KG&E five year forecast. At some future date the 69 kv tie from Urbana

"~~"to a 138/69 kv substation west of Walnut would be required.

'"~~

me l.

As you can see from the attached tabulation, the Erie system will not be deficient until 1978. *1his is based on Mr Dwight Mays', Utility Superintendent, calculations using 5% compounded growth, which I believe you will agree is on the conservative side.

Therefore, without revenue potential from firm power purchases, the KG&E investment in 69 kv line precludes the economic soundness of the

,( ,

interconnection. However, it was suggested to the Erie officials that something might be worked out if they would purchase enough economy power i

to cover our fixed charges on the 69 kv line.

1 Mr Mays called me yesterday indicating that their net kilowatt hour sales during the period June 1972 to May 1973 would equal i

6,801,773 kwh 1

less entire Erie load during 400 peak hours 136,700 kwh 6,665,073 x 4 mills (present economy schedule less fuel) = $26,660.

Nine miles of 69 kv line at $20,000 per mile = $180,000 Fixed charges on investment at 15% per annum = $27,000 per annum.

It is recommended that we propose to the Erie town council the following:

KG&E enter into a standard interconnection contract including schedules for Transmission Service, Emergency Service, Economy Service and Firm Service. That the City of Erie purchase from KG&E an amount of economy power equal to $25,000 per annum covering the fixed charges on the l

k. -

t u.

f KG6E investment for approximately 9 miles of 69 kv line. That this $25,000

,a fr annual purchase be in effect until KC&E's 69 kv transmission line is com-

.' e pleted between Urbana and our 138 kv line to the east. At that time the minimum purchase requirement would be discontinued and the City of Eric could elect to continue the purchase of the necessary firm capacity to comply with the 125% requirement and economy or emergency as needed, g The political climate with the Mayor, Mr LeRoy Priess,and the Utility Superintendent, Mr Dwight Mays, is very favorable. They will both recommend this arrangement to the council. I know there will be concern on the part of the council about discontinuing generation at the plant to

" eat up" the minimum. 1 believe they can be persuaded.

We have been invited to appear before the council Tuesday, July 20, at 7:30 pm. Your early response to this proposal would be appreciated.

He said they had ground to a halt because several of the council menbers did not like the idea of the open end arrannement that we had presented with renards to the mininun. I revieved the reasons for the minimum and also indicated that wnile it was open end, there was no risk as far as the City of Erie is concerned. Furthersore I reminded Itayor Priess that this was now the fourth time they had nsked us for a proposition nince 1963, and that time was running out on them (uc have advised then by letter that a de-t cision must be nade by the niddle of October in order to have the line in

) service by June 1).

i 1:e agreed and stated that they are anain lookinc at engines.

l This is interestino, in that during previous sessions they have advised us that suppliers have said it would take at least 18 nonths to supply I generating equipment, new or used.

There is little Icadership in the town of 1:ric, at least on this subject. It appears that cycryone sinply hopes the problen will go away.

l We could consider the following:

1. Place a maxinum number of years on the minimum and assume that the kwh purchase arrangement would be so satisf actory they would continue to buy energy.

September 22, 1971

-- The Mayor and City Council City of Erie Eric, Kansas 66733 f

Gentlemen:

On Tuesday, September 7, I visited !!ayor Priess in his office to notify him that our substation located at the LcHigh Cement Plant was no longer for sale. Several months ago we had indicated that we would con-sider selling the substation, but now have a new industry locating at the Lehigh site. As a consequence, it will be necessary to leave the sub-Station intact.

While visiting with Mayor Priesa about this matter, he indicated th.st the council members had not acted upon the interconnection proposal because of the so-called "open end" feature of the annual fixed charge

~' payments. Mayor Priess asked if we would consider placing a tirse limit on these annual payments. His question has prompted us to make further engineering review of the subject.

Before commenting on the results of that review, let ce again briefly outline our interconnection proposal as presented to the council the evening of July 9:

1) Kansas Cas and Electric Company would entor into a standard Interconnection Contract including schedules for Transmission Service, Emergency Service, Economy Service and Firm Service with the city of Erie.

2) That the city of Erie would purchase from KG&E an amount of economy power equal to $27,000 per annum covering the fixed charges on the KC&E investment for approximately 9 miles of 69 kv line to be constructed from the company's Urbana Substation.

3) That the $27,000 annual purchase be in effect until KG&E's future transmission requirements nake it necessary to complete the 69 kv transmission line between Urbana and the KG&E 138 kv line to the east.

l 1

l i

I l

/

• ^

4) At such time the minbaum purchase requirement would be dis-continued and the city of Erie could elect to continue the purchase of the necessary firm power capacity to comply with the contractual 125%

requirement and economy or emergency energy as needed.

You will recall that the calculations for the annual charge was based on the following:

9 miles of 69 kv line at $20,000 per mile = $180,000 Fixed charges on investment at 15% per annum = $27,000 per annua Mr Dwight Mays, Utility Superintendent, furnished us with an estimate of Erie's net kilowatt-hour sales during the period June 1972 to May 1973. From this we calculated the approximate cost to the city to purchase power from the company. Those calculations were:

6,801,773 kwh 136,700 kwh - less entire Erie load during 400 peak hours 6,665,073 kwh x 4 mills (present economy schedule less fuel) = $26,660 (not including sales tax)

CORCLUSIONS OF R'dVIEW Using the system demand figures supplied by Mr }kys indicating a SI annual compound growth through 1980, studying our own system require-ments for that onme period and investigating other alternative methods of providing future capacity and reliability to the KG&E system, we cannot predict any need for a tie between our Urbana Sub and our 133 kv line during the next ten year period. Consequently, it would be inprudent for us to agree to a time limit on the annual charge based on our present knowledge of the growth potential and the subsequent completion of the tie.

I would again remind you that while the annual mininum charge does represent a substantial commitment on the part of the city, that com-mitment also buyo a substantial amount of power at a very favorable rate.

We believe we have made you a sound proposition and regret that the economics are not such that your request for a shut-off date on the minimum can be arranged, i

Should you have additional questions, or if we can be of further i assistance, don't hesitate to call me.

Dear Mr Leava:

I have enclosed the information you requested by, phone yesterday morning regarding your engineering study with the City of Erie, Kansas.

The Electric Interconnection Agreement, KG&E Form GitIA. is our standard interconnected municipal contract. We have penciled in appropriate changes reflecting new rates as approved by the Federal Power Commission ef fective January 10. These have not as yet been put in ef fect as a couple of details are presently being

, cleared with the FPC. The Electric Interconnection Agreement attachments include our Service Schedules A, B and C. -

In addition I have also enclosed a copy of our proposed rate schedule PWM, Public Utility Resale, as you requested.

We made proposals to the City of Erie in 1969 and 1971.

As discussed during our phone conversation, it will be necessary I for the City to provide a substation fed from our 69 kv source at Urbana. KC&E could agree to construct this line with the

City paying the annual fixed charges on it.

I I have told John Hansberry you may be calling him for additional information as you get into your study, and he would be happy to hear from you. Just as a suggestion and as you begin to formulate some ideas on the study, I would be pleased to meet with you and our engineering group here in Wichita.

Last v 'ek while in Pittsburg, I had an emergency telephone message from d

Mayor Pi'ess of Erie, Kansas. I reached the mayor that evening.

1 The substance of his question waa - would we allow the City to tic up temporarily with The Cooperative Electric Power & Light Company Inc as a back-up to their generating deficiency. The Cooperative LP&L has a substation with some capacity in it in the area, and, apparently, Wes

., Clendenen brought up the idea.

I advised the mayor thic, was not possible under the rates as filed in that j they specificially refer to ultimate users being those within the cooper-ative's area where they hold a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity.

I

!!e was inclined to want to argue the point in that their situation con-stitutes an emergency which, of course, we have known for several years.

About two weeks ago I received a call from Kirkwood & Associates asking for current information on interconnections. They are another firm that

( has been retained by Erie to review interconnections versus additional l generating capacity.

S

] Mayor Priess told me that while they have bought the generating equipment from the old Lehigh Cenent Company operation they are not now going to I

install it even thou?,h it has been paid for.

Frankly, the town of Eric is in a ress. Ouster proceedings are under way against the mayor; the city clerk has been convicted of embezzlement; the city superintendent haa left, and the electrical deficiency is serious.

There is no leadership, as I believe the mayor is just incompetent, i

, I hesitate to start interconnection negotiations again for various reasons.

I planted the idea in the Kirkwood engineering minds of taking a look at a wholesale arrano,ement. The fuel situation can't be good and the i

condition of their plant leaves much to be desired. Possibly the time l 1 is ripe to develop some leadership contacts in the town .nd discuss the l 4 possibility of a wholesale or even retail deal.

Maybe we should sit down and review the idea.

i The IIonorable LeRoy Priess Mayor of Eric Crie, Kansan 66733 i

Dear Mayor Priess:

Your City Clerk, Mr Strickland, furnished us with monthly peak demands and net kilowatt-hours r,enerated for the year 1972.

As you and I discussed at the power plant April 5, we agreed to apply KC6E's wholesale rate, PIO!-173, to these demands and kilowatt-hours so that you could see what the approximate cost to the city for the year 1972 would be had you been a wholesale customer of the conpany.

Each column on the tabulation is identified including monthly fuel adjustinent cost for that period. The last colunt. will pro-

{ vide you with the total nonthly dollar cost and the annual cost.

I believe you will be interested to note that based on your 1972 operations, your average annual cost of purchased power from us on l'kol-173 would be 1.10c per kilowatt-hour.

I will be pleased to visit with you about these finures whenever you desire.

s Mr Ralph Fiebach May 8, 1973 City of Erie As discussed with you and Mr Evans, Mr Cumiskey and I met with the Erie Council last Thursday evening. All councilmen were in attendance and, in addition, the Mayor had invited some forner council members and prominent citizens to discuss their electric energy supply.

I outlined two possible proposttions:

1. An Electric Interconnection

2. Wholesale Service.

We told then that, frankly, the City should consider the wholesale propo-sition and dispose of the plant. We conceded that this was probably a new idea and while it might be slightly controversial with some citizens it has considerable merit considering the condition of the present plant

, and the high cost to the city to construct an interconnection due to the lack of proxiuit/ to KG&E facilities.

p g5g Aco.i7 I had asked Mayor Pricss to develop some data on their electric utility operation. Uc advised us that the 1972 expenses directly chargeable to the power plant operation was $91s00T334 During that same period if PWM-173 is applied to their net kilowatt-hodrs generated, the annual power bill to us would have been $73,108.98.

City bonded debt on the plant is $191,000 with $100,000 in reserve as i

required by Kansas law. Last year's peak for the city was 2200 kw.

i Forty percent (40%) of their total capacity is in one unit. They feel j that they will be in trouble this summer.

[

Several weeks ago Erie officials learned that the Cooperative Electric Power & Light Company had 1500 kw of temporary capacity from their sub-station located at Urbana. This could be gotten with a couple of spans of secondary. At the tiue the question was raised, I told them it would not be possible as the REC rate provides for sale to REC accounts only.

l This question was again raised the other night by Dr William C Weir, MD, l

l (new on the council). tie asked if we would consider allowing them to make a temporary tap providing they signed either an interconnecting or whole-sale agreement with us and recognizing that it would probably take at least a year to get built in to the city. I told him that while not being able i

to commit to such an arrangement, I thought it could be considered through O

special dispensation with the Commission and our Engineering Department

' as a means to bail them out if their system broke down this sumner. I am afraid that any response to the contrary on my part could have been inter-k preted as either a wedge or real lack of compassion for their problem.

,# o Mr Ralph Fiebach

,- City of Erie (Cont'd) .

I suggested that if the temporary hook-up was considered from an engineering standpoint that it would probably require some keying arrangement whereby they could not physically oc electrically run parallel with us.

They will consider all propositions and be in touch in the near future.

The attitude was nost cordial. We discussed our plans for a firm electric smm supply beginning with the development of La Cygne Plant up to and' including

'<d La Cygne No. 2 and Uolf Creek. The bar graph on the phase-out cf KG&E's dependence on gas was of considerable interest to them. We met for approxi-mately 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. At the close of the meeting !!r Roger Kensinger, editor of the local paper and council menber, said it had been one of the most informative sessions he had attended in a long time and that our company was certainly to be commended for its advanced planning to cope with the fuel crisis.

Subject:

City of Erie, Kansas ,-

Dear Mr. Cadman:

At a recent meeting with the governing body of the City of Erie, Kansas, I the electrical interconnection with KG&E was discussed. There are two points, houever, that need to be cleared up to everyone's satisfaction. These were dis-cussed at our meeting at your office, but it needs to be included either in the contract or as a supplement to the contract. The two points in question are as follovs:

f 1. In the event that the City should enter into on interconnection contract with KG&E at this time which involves the City building

{[gM the 69 KV transmission line and step-down substation, and at a later year decide to shut the Municipal Pouer Plant down and purchase

{( {'.11 all requirements from KG&E on a wholesale contract basis, will KG&E purchase from the City the 69 KV transmission line and

. associated substation? It is anticipated that the low voltage structure of the substation would remain the property of the City.

2 Assuming that the answer to the first question is yes, conditions for L'y the purchase by KG&E should be defined. Basically the terms desired by the City for the selling price of these facilities would be replace-ment cost value less 3% annual depreciation.

At your earliest convenience, please advise on these two matters and hoa they would be made a part of the contract. .

Sincerely yours, C. H. GUERNSEY & COMPANY

Dear Charlie:

i i

Please er.cuse ry tardy renponse to your letter of ')ece ebe r 28 re.cardine your two points in question on the proposed F.rie interconnection.

1. If the City decides to interconnect with KG&r. and build the 69 kv line necessary, we will purchase the line at sore future date should the City then decide to purchase power on a wholesale contract basis.

The line, of course, would have to be built to our specifications.

tie would also purchaos the substation.if it is 12 kv. Other secondary voltae,es would bn avoided because it complicates our apare situation.

Tsu r.ention that the low voltare structure of the substation would remain the property of tne City. My answer to that would La yes-(if 12 kv) and you racan associated switchit ear, etc.

2. Youaskedforuntodefinepurchaseconditionssupresti$nethenellinn price would he replacement cost value less 31 annual depreciation.

'le would pronose to purchase at original cost velu,e. less 3% annual deprecia* ion since this is all wn're allower! to include in our rate base for carnine purposca.

As to hov ve would comrit to such a poesible trnnsaction, it would be a sirple nstter of a side letter of nereecent crecuted by both parties.

Daar Mr'Massey 9 s Attached is a copy of our document KA-7123, dated 11-12-71. This document describes the general conditions required for making a 69 KV connection to our system. Specifications of the major equipment and b' line hardware are also included. I believo that this will give you f sufficient information to proceed with writing specifications for the 69 KV lino extension to Erie.

Please note that because of the added nine miles of exposure to our

. s 69 Kv line, we will require an oil circuit breaker at Urbana. Since the fault currents at Urbana are not high, this circuit breaker re-quirement can be tact by usitig somothing similar to a !!cGraw-r:disat 69 Av reclosor. This recloser can ho platform mounted, and can even be obtained with a gas operator if you wish to go that route.

As to the specifications for the 69/12.5 Kv transformer, the same kind of specifications that were used for Neodesha would be satis-factory. We would like an opportunity to review these specifications before subtaitting to vendors. If you wish to use an auto transformer in order to provide the 69 Kv ground source, and to use a 2400 volt delta tertiary, we would havn no chjection to your using thi= 2400 vcit source to supply existing 2400 volt circuits at 1;rie.

For your information, the available three phase fault current at Urbana is 338 MVA at 69 Kv.

Ile said that in reviewing their gas situation and looking at the present city debt, the council has formally acted and is

' requesting a wholesale contract. This, of course, will mean

- that KG&E will build a line and substation. I shall work out the details with Messrs Ruddick and llansberry.

Dear Wes:

Early this week Mr Les Morgan, of our Engineering Department, visited with one of your folks about the 12 KV line running from Urbana substation by the City of Erie.

l This is in accord with yours and my conversation regarding a temporary .

l arrangement whereby we could make some emergency power available to i the city over your lines.

l Mr Morgan estinates that the line could carry an additional 600 to 800 KW. Because of the lack of load information on the line, the estimate could be either high or low; but he feels pretty comfortable with the 800 figure.

You indicated you would discuss the matter with your Board regarding transmission charges, etc. Please let me know what you have concluded, and we will work out the details with the Erie city officials.

Sincerely, WKC/kp cc - Mr Ralph Nelson, Superintendent of Utilities Mr Les Morgan bec - Messrs Ralph Fiebach John Hansberry Barney Ruddick R Phillips R Longstaff J J Cumiskey

Dear Wilson:

With reference to your letter of May 31, 1974, regarding temporary arrangements for emergency power for the U iy of Erie, Kansas, I have discussed this matter with Mr. Ralph Nelson, Superintendent of the d Ci ty of Erie. Also, I have discussed the matter with our board of trustees at our last regular board meeting. We feel that one and one-half mills would be a fair transmissic,n charge and this was agreeable i

with Mr. Nelsen. Mr. Nelson advises me that this power will only be used when the load exceeds their generating capacity. We would, there-fore, like to have an agreement from your company waiving the Rights of i Cause in our Wholesale Power Contract.

If any further information is desired, please write me.

To assist you in doing the work that will have to m be done on your system to make this interconnection, I would like to provide the following information.

14 plan to install the matering on the first polo away from the Coopora-tive line. If this in not convenient, it could be installed at somo other pole. KGr.C will provide and install all of the metering equipment, f m This will consist of a watthour meter and a printing demand meter.

We have available here in Wichita some 500 Kva ningin phane transfomers that I believe would be suitable in making the connection between the 12.5 Kv circuit and your 2400 volt system. Wo will earmark three Kuhlman transformers for this purposo which havo the following nameplato infor-mation 500 Kva, 7200-2400 volts; high voltage tars at 7200, 7920, 6840, 6660 and 6480. Each transformer weighs 7.160 lbs. The hoight to

You will notice that the Agreement for a temporary connection over the lines of The Cooperative Elaetric Power & Light Company Inc provides for a one-year term with the option for a one-year renewal by KC&E. Mr Wesley R Clendenen, n General Manager of The Cooperative glectric Power & Light Company inc, has indicated that the Cooperative will charge the City 1.5 mills per kilowatt-hour for each kilowatt-hour transmitted over the Cooperative's line as a transMesion charge. This is the charge as discussed with Mr Balph Nelson and agreed upon as appropriate.

KC&E will add that amount to each Lilling for electric service to the City and reaiit same to the Cooperative.

I underctanu that t.he City has picked up the transformer bank which we have

, , agreed tc lease at a nominal charge and it is presently being installed for l

the temporary arrang sment until such time as a lir.s can be built to the City.

We hope this nessure is helpful and we are pleased that it could be worke/

out with the Cooperativa.

It is a pleasure for us to have the opportunity to provide power to your City on a wholesale basis and we know that the arrangement will be mutually baneticial over the years to come. Should you have further questions, please get in touch with me.

Dear Ralph:

We have further discussed the changes that you have made in the Agreement for Wholesale Electric Service which was presented to the city for execution last July. Our conclusion is that this is a standard contract which we have with a number of wholesale accounts. It is not in our best interest to have all kinds of variations in these contracts. Ccasequently, Mr Cumiskey will be delivering to you the necessary documents to r,

be considered by the Council and executed if you so desire, The only changes suggested by you which are appropriate have to do with the request for the increased maximum and minimum, the initial voltage at the point of delivery and your choice of language for the delivery point.

As we mentioned in our letter of July 24, Mr Cumiskey will be happy to explain the handling of the ordinance and the publi-cation thereof.

On Tuesday, March 2, when,I was visiting with John Mercer, city manager of Augusta, h'e requested that I provide him with approximate cost estimate for a 10,000 KVA inter-connection. lie would like our recommendation whether the 69/12 KV transformer should bc located near our 69 KY line in the northeast area of Augusta, or if this line should be extended approximately 1500 ft. south and located the transformer at their generating station switch yard. lie would like this information by April 1, so that he can discuss this subject with the city council of Augusta, o ps n BAMagnus:bg1 a

1) It is immate. ial to us whether the sub is located near our line or located 1,500 feet south at the plant switchyard.

In either case, our only requirement would be that a dis-connecting device be provided within one pole span of the point of interconnection (plus, of course, a low,,,sfde trans-former breaker and associated relaying) . If they some day envision a loop feed with two transformers, then it might be better if built near our line. If only a single trans-former tap is envisioned, then it would probably be easier and simpler to locate this transformer in their existing switchyard , b 2) In the matter of costs, the following estimates are based on our cost figures for similar work. 1/3 of 3-way GOAB, installed on pole at point of interconnection S 2,600 1,500 feet of 69 Kv line with guyed, vood pole terminals. (Does not include right-of-way costs.) $10,000 7.5//10.5 MVA substation with single metal clad breaker as shown on attached one-line. $93,000 Jilliansberry/ey Attach, cc - Messrs. E. S. flall B.

Dear,

John: , , , , , , , . , , , , , , , , , , , . ,, . y , , ,, ppg . d Bedford Magnus, our manager at El Dorado, advises me that you have requested some information pertaining to a 10,000 kva interconnection between the City of Augusta and KG&E. Our engineering department has pro-vided the following information based on ballpark estimates and no specific details of your system. Their ideas and. estimates should, of course,, be verified by your consulting engineers. Q. Should the sub location be near the Kc&E 69 kv line in the northeast area of Augusta or should it be extended some 1500' south in proximity to the present Augusta switchyard? A. It is inmterini to us whether the nub is located near our line or located 1500' south at the plant switchyard. In either case, our

             ;'                               only requirement would be that a disconnecting device be provided within                                                                                                           '

This is in reply to your recent request that we update the estimates of f acility costs which the City of Augusta might incur in making an interconnection. The revised cost esti-mates are as follows: 1/3 of 3-way GOAB installed on pole at $ 3,500 a. point of interconnection 1500 feet of 69 Kv line with guyed wood $ 10,000 b. terminal poles. (Right-of-way is not included.) 7.5//10.5 Mva substation with single metal $101,500 c. [*S clad breaker per attached one-line diagram. Does not include land, fence or grading. If the City desires automatic line sectionalizing or supervisory-controlled line sectionalizing at the inter-connection point, it can be added at a rather modest additional cost. We will also provide an estimate of this cost if the City is interested. I i l J/. _ l JHH/JL/cy Attach cc - Messrs E S Hall B Ruddick j R Longstaff

Dear Mayor Nelson:

I am sorry for the delay since we last talked about the possi-bility of installing some device on Oxford's service whereby we could establish accurate demand loads on your system. In checking with our engineering and operating departments, there re apparently 2 ways that this could be achieved:

                            /         We could loan the City of Oxford the necessary equip-ment such as meter, current transformer and potential
                  ,f'                  transformers to meter the demand. The City would install this equipment.

("5

      ~

2. The Company, with your permission, would install the primary meter set as necessary to record demands.

Costs incurred in so doing would be paid to the Company by the City of Oxford. There would be no equipment charge, only necessary labor and mileage . . These monies would be refunded to the City on their first electric bill should Oxford decide to inter-connect with KG&E. Either of these a'lternatives would provide the information necessary to accurately determine costs of power. If there are any questions that might need clarification, please don't hesitate tu contact me. Our Division Line Supervisor, J.E. McNicol and I would be happy to meet with you.

Thank you for your letter of May 13th concerning the equipment necessary to determine our demand load.

Our i        j                 proposal would include the following:

1

1) In and out svitching on our 138 KV line.

m

2) A 5,000 Kva transformer bank consisting of three single phase e units with one spare unit.

i

3) A voltage regulator V 4) A vacunn recloser with electronic control and a fuood hy-p passing arrangement.

5) Two miles of 12.5 KV line.

6) Fole mountad billing metering equipment e.t the end of our

            "                                 12.5 Kv line.

We would propose to run our 12.5 KV line talonti liighway 160s and would deliver power to the city at approximately liighway 160 and the city i limitc. The city would be responsible for any lino work beyond this l point. We w uld probably build the 12.5 Kv line on public right-of-way. '

                                                                                                                                                       ,[

Dear Mayor Nelson:

As discussed with you Thursday morning, Mr. Dennis Evans, Vice President of Customer and Community Services, has instructed his staff to prepare agreements for' wholesale electric service by and , between Kansas Gas and Electric Company and the City of Oxford. As we discussed at the City Council meeting on August 2, Item 2 of these agreements deals with establishing " minimum" and " maximum" kilowatt requirements . . . It is possible through a mathematical approach to determine demand loads for the past 12 months based on your kwh consumption, but we would like to be certain, and I would feel more confident in dealing with actuals rather than estimates. In that the City of Winfield has a " demand meter" as well as a kilowatt hour register at your metering point, I would assume over the years they have maintained a record of electrical load on that particular line. As you know, during the past several months, some of your staff have read this demand register and furnished us with " actual" de-mands for June and July. It would be most -- dvantageous to secure

                      " actual" KW consumption for the past year in order to compute factual costs.

As discussed, I will be in Chicago next week, and by the time I get back, we hopefully will be in a position to submit agreements

                 . to you and the City Council for examination.
 .                    Since receiving your letter dated March 9 inviting us to meet with the City Council relative to investigating the possibility of sup-plying Oxford's electric needs, we                   These have        calculated costs     were costs based figured        on  the on ap-figures you have provided us.

plicable rate schedule at this time, Pi!M- 17 3 . At the Council meeting the other morning, you will recall that 1 stated that we expect a rate increase affecting this particular rate. Application has not been filed as yet so I cannot attest to what the percentage increase will be . . . I am confident that there will be other rate increases in the future affecting all of the Company's rate schedules. In comparison, I'm confident there

                                                    ~

will also be rate increases affecting generating municipals such as Winfield, and one would assume that these costs would be passed on to their customers as well. 304 s. Summat - Arkansas city. Kansas - Mast AJdress: P. o. Ekn $32 l Arkansas Cott, Kansas 6700$ - Telephone. Area Coce (316) 442-3 m

mci' City of Oxford Electric. Servic ' ff ff J n U You requested a recommendation regarding the possible whole-sale delivery of electric power to the city of Oxford. The following conditions and data were considered in developing my recommendations:

1. Oxford approached us regarding a wholesale delivery point.

2. Oxford provided us with consumption data and a maximum demand. For the 12 months ending July 1977, their con-sumption was 7,102,000 kwh and the maximum demand was 2,600 kw. Based on these conditions and applying rate schedule PWM-575, the annual revenue was estimated to be $151,062. This estimate includes $41,367 of fuel adjustment but excludes R&D.

         ,q                      3. To serve the load, it would be necessary to build a O                           5,000 kva, 138/12.5 kv substation and approximately 2 miles of 12.5 kv line. According to Engineering, this will cost $334,836.          The "up and down" was esti-mated to be $153,204.                                       *

4. The city of Winfield serves Oxford under a contract that expires June 26, 1978. '

5. Winfield. purchases a portion of their power from us, consequently, we are providing some of Oxford's load through Winfield.

The new revenue projection without considering the possible loss of sales to Winfield is adequate to support the additional new I investment. This situation will improve when we are granted an increase in the wholesale rate. l The substation required to serve Oxford will also improve the reliability and continuity of service in a portion of the area now served by Udall and Rainbow subs. It will also provide needed capacity for growth. Consequently, a portion of the investment could be allo-cated to system improvement. In my opinion, 10% to 20% of the invest-ment could be absorbed in this manner. My recommendations are:

1. Submit contracts similar to those attached.

l

4. Ltr Mr Dennis Evans 8/19/77

2. Request a letter of intent from the city of Oxford, should they decide to take service from us, in which they agree to pay for all material and labor involved in providing service to them in case they change their mind before service is connected. This would allow us to purchase equipment and start work without risk while the contract is being negotiated and executed.

l /"'s 3. Oxford should be informed of the upcoming wholesale (_) rate case including the projected increased amount. This represents my views at this time. In a few years when Winfield might be purchasing more of their peuer requirements from us, it will be more difficult to justify add!.tional investment to serve Oxford.

                                                            /

Mr. Kenneth Lunt Kansas Gas & Electric 304 South Sumit _ Arkansas City, Kansas 67005

Dear Mr. Lunt:

By action of the City Cvuncil this morning our contract agreement between the City and KG&E was approved and passed by unanimous vote subject to the minor modification with respect to the term of the contract which apparently your company has approved. Imediately upon receipt of the modification of the contract with respect to the term period, the council will conduct a special meeting to approve and sign tne agreement, adopt the ordinance, and have the ordinance published in our local newspaper. We, therefore, request that you accept our letter as our intent and consent to complete the contract and request that the proper personnel of your company proceed with the acquisition of line and equipment necessary to place as- service in operation in the most expedient manner possible. Yours truly,

                                                                       , JQQLEV^

J on Septemher 6, 1977, we met to discuss a proposed electric service contract for the City of Oxford. A suggested

  "    ordinance and our plans to file, with the Federal Power Com-mission, for an increase in our wnolesale rates were also discussed. This letter will confirm our understanding of the enanges you requested in the proposed contract and ordinance.

v We agreed to change the term (paragraph 8) of the con-tract from one ten-year renewal to automatic annual renewals.

   '   Paragraph 8 now contains an initial term of ten years with automatic one year renewals con.mencing on June 27, 1988 and each expiration date thereafter.

_s We agreed to change the proposed ordinance as you sug-gested in Section 2 at the top of page 5. When your sugges-tions were incorporated, grammatical changes were necessary. All the changes made occur in the first four lines of Section 2 and I believe you will find them to be satisfactory. When comparing the proposed rate schedule PWM-1077 with the present PWM-875, you will find the charges increased, one less step in the demand charges, one less step in the energy charges and a 75% ratchet added in the demand section. The proposed fuel rider (FAPWM) when compared to the existing

fuel adjustment clause rider differs in that the fuel base was changed from 3.45 mills to 10.06 mills, reflecting more closely our fuel costs, and the loss factor in Section 2 of I

the rider was changed from 3.86% to 4.65%. Copies of the ! proposed rate schedule and fuel rider are enclosed for your ! information. The request, when approved by the Federal Power Commission, will increase your power costs between 32% and 40%. hy l,.. j REH.H,dh ' B ;?.4 Mi m! H U[! P M ism Wl&(55l } is M I A

As a single Agency representing some Q_8 rauniciral electric systems. with common power supply problems, we plan to worr. together and with the other power suppliets in the area to solve nur f uture power supply problems, hopef ully to the benefit of all concerned. We have recently co=missioned R. W. Beck and Associates, Denver Office, to ccnduct a powe: supply feasibility study for the Agency and the Coasulting Engineer is presently obtaining basic data for the study from the member cities. l The nurpose of this studv is to investigate reasonable power supgly a p ative M or. fur 4 L1 ng hi sunnienental pcver suppjy requirements of the

Dear Mr. Fiebach:

l - In nty letter of August 30, 1978 I advised you of the formation of a group .' of cities into the Eastern Kansas Municipal Energy Agency. As was men-tioned, R. W. Beck and Associates, Consulting Engineers, has been retained to make a study of viable power supply alternatives. In the course of this study, areas of investigation will include possible ownership participation by the Agency in future generating projects of other utilities and trans-mission service for delivery of Agency power to member municipals. In order to realistically assess all viable alternatives, it is necessary that we . request certain basic information from arsa utilities such as Kansas Power

                           & Light, Kansas City Power & Light and Kansas Gas & Electric. Accordingly, we would appreciate answers to the following questions.     ,

1. Does KG&E have future generating projects or generating projects now under construction in which it would consider allowing the Agency to participate on an ownership basis?

2. If so, what is the proposed schedule for coninercial operation of the generating units involved?

3. What are the estimated installed capital' costs, fuel costs, O&M -

and other related power generation costs for these generating I unitsi

4. Would KG&E provide transmission service within its service area for delivery of Agency power to its municipal members (or to another utility for delivery to Agency members) from the above generation projects, from other participation generation,.or from generating plants owned solely by the Agency? What would be the cost to the Agency for such transmission service? Please provide a copy of your current transmission service rate schedule.

5. Does KG&E have wholesale rates for possible sale of finn power, peaking power, supplemental power, econonly energy and emergency (Continued) l l w' w .- ' e e'. -

( e R. P. Fiebach Page 2 power and energy to the Agency for resale to its members? Please furnish copies of current applicable rate schedules. In order *.o expedite our studies already in progress, we would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you to receive and discuss your answers to the above questions. The Agency would be willing to consider the sizing of its - entitlement, in a participation project, so as to make available sufficient amounts of surplus capacity and energy under the 25% IRS rule. I will call you the week of December 18th to schedule a meeting as soon as-possible thereafter. In the meantime, please contact me if you have any

questions concerning the above.

Dear Mr. Fiebach:

I want to thank you, Messrs. Evans, Cadman, and Lucas, for taking the time to discuss power supply problems with representatives from the Eastern Kansas Municipal Energy Agency. During the course of the meeting a couple things were discussed which require some more exploring before we can proceed with our study. First, your company feels that a purchase resale arrangement for the transmission of power is preferable to wheeling. This would mean agency power would be sold to an investor owned utility and eventually resold to an agency member. As was mentioned, our problem with this would be the tax exempt status of our bonds, and with copy of this letter I am requesting our legal counsel, Donald A. Bell, to research this area for an opinion. Secondly, it was your company's feeling you could use more time to review areas that the agency would help KGE. An example was a low voltage condition on the western portion of your system and pcssibly the agency could install intermediate loaded generation. In light of this, it was felt your written response to the questions in my letter of December 8,1978, would be~ delayed - until February 16. All in all our committee was pleased with our exploratory meeting and feels we can be of mutual benefit. Again, thanks, and if you need additional information please call me. Very truly yours , EASTERN KANSAS MUNICIPAL ENERGY AGENCY k

He said he had not yet received a letter from KG$$ about their request for information. I told him that you were in New York now and that a letter.would probably be sent soon. F.3 was congenial and did not seem to be upset. I got the impression from Gil's conversation that his mind is - made up that the Agency will be formed and that they will " define _ a project" in which the municipals can participate. He inferred that he did not want to do so but if they could not " define a project" within the State, the Agency might go outside the State. He also mentioned that BPU's Nearman No. 2 now scheduled for the late 80's might be moved up to 1984 as an Agency projec't. 1 ed JRL:ke Copies to - Messrs. GLKoester REFhillips

B.3-5 March 29, 1979 1 Mr Gilbert E Hanson, Chairman Eastern Kansas Municipal Energy Agency  : 1211 North Eighth Street l Kansas City, Kansas 66101 l

Dear Mr Hanson:

1 This is in responsa to the list of questions you provided us and to confirm some of the points covered in our conversation with you and various members of the Eastern Kansas Municipal Energy Agency here in our offices January 25, 1979. Question 1) - Does KGkE have future generating projects or generating projects now under construction in which it would consider allowing the Agency to participate on an ownership basis? As we have indleated, KGkE is committed to a construction program which includes Wolf Creek unit #1 for commercial operation in 1983, and 207 ownership in each of the four Jeffrey units. Jeffrey units 3 and 4 have now been slipped one year each (JEC #3 from '82 to '83 and JEC f4 from '84 to '85). These facilities form an integral part of the plan we set in motion in the early 1960's to convert from a gas / oil fuel base to coal / nuclear. Obviously, and I think as we mentioned in our meeting, we are not interested in further reduction of ownership in the units described above. Our present and burdensome construction program based on present foro..:asts should take us to the year 1990 or thereabouts. No plans have bee: . made as yet for additional generation beyond Jeffrey #4. We have done some very preliminary work in reviewing future potential sites. As you know, KGkE and KCPL have each offered KEPCo an 817. joint ownership interest in Wolf Creek unit il for a total KEPCo ownership interest of 171. We are in the final thross of negotiating all of the necesskry documents, financing arrangemente, etc and as a natter of interest met with KEPCo again as recently as Tuesday of this week. The negotiations are time consuming because the subject is complicated for all parties.

Mr Gilbert E Hansca pego 2 March 29, 1979 Naturally, KEPCo's ability to participate will depend upon the finalization of a long term loan from REA or others. They see no problem with that. However, in the event that KEPCo's ownership would fail, we believe the 81% ownership interest offered by KGE to KEPCo could be made available to your Agency. I feel, however, that the entire deal tvill be finalized. Question 2) - If so, what is the proposed schedule for commercial operation of the generating units involved? Answer included in question fl. Question 3) - What are the estimated installed capital costs, fuel costs, OEM and other related power generation costs for these generating units 7 Since it appears unlikely that any of the units described earlier will be available for ownership by the Agency, I have not detailed all of the costs requested. As a matter of interest and to give you soms feel for investment costa, however, Wolf Creek unit #1 is presently estimated at

                $947/ kilowatt; Jeffrey #1 $493/ kilowatt; Jeffrey #2 $346/ kilowatt: Jeffrey i3 $408/ kilowatt and Jeffrey #4 $417/ kilowatt. The Jeffrey units were contracted in the very early part of the 1970's. Should the situation develop where the agency could participate in Wolf Creek as a result of a problem developing for KEPCo, we would, of course, expect to get into the matter in greater detail.

Question 4) - Would KGLE provide transmission service within its . service area for delivery of Agency power to its municipal members (or to another ut.111ty for delivery to Agency members) from the above generation projects, from other participation generation, or from generating plants owned solely by the Agency? What would be the cost to the Agency for such transmission service? Please provide a copy of your current transmission service rate schedule. KGkE would consider providing point-to-point bulk transmission service within our service area for the use you have described in question #4. As we do not presently have a service schedule for this type of service (except that schedule available to KGkE interconnected municipal customers) we can not tell you what the cost might be. We would expect euch schedules to be fully compensatory for all energy transferred. The cost would depend, of course, on the terms and conditions of the service and would require FERC filing and approval, based upon a return on fully distributed costs and investment.

Mr Gilbert E Hanson page 3 March 29, 1979 We would reserve the right to regulate transmission of power across our system with a buy / sell approach as a means to maintain control of the transactions and line loadings during normal and emergency conditions. Question 5) - Does KGkE have wholesale rates for possible sale of firm power, peaking power, supplemental power, economy energy and emergency power and energy to the Agency for resale i to its members? Please furnish copies of current applicable rate schedules. KGkE does not presently have service schedules which would be applicable for the type of wholesale services referred to above. However, we are developing such schedules to accommodate the KGkE/KEPCo agreements and can make them available to you after approval by FERC. We would like to make several observations, Mr Hanson. We want you and your Agency members to understand that we recognize the existence of the power agency concept in the state and applaud your efforts to develop power resources for your members. Due to regulatory problems, efforts to limit siting and the construction of transmission lines, unsettled conditions in the state regarding utilities, and the lack of a definitive national energy polley, we find our crystal ball cloudy. W5 have confidence in our forecasts based on a historical track record. We do not know, as I am sura is the case with the Kansas City Board of Public Utilities, what the future holds with respect to projections based upon historical growth. We would advise you that our present intention is to preserve the expandable resources of our two mature sites (La Cygne and Wolf Creek) for our own retail customer uses. We would strongly recommend that the Agency give serious consideration to harness your financial and consulting resources in identifying generation sites to be developed by the Agency. While we cannot commit at this time due to unsettled conditions and other

           , factors, we would give serious consideration to acquisition of an undivided ownership which might be made available to us by the Agency in a future plant or to other power purchase arrangements between the Agency and KGkE.

Should you have further questions, please let us know. We will be following with interest the development of your program and the efforts of your consulting engineering firm. We apologise for the delay in getting this data into your hands but know that you understand the reasons and that patience is appreciated. Sincerely, WILSON K. CADMAN l !

• Mr R E Phillips May 8, 1979  %. If ) s Eastern Kansas Municipal Energy Agency I had a call today from Gil Hanson, Chairmar. of the Eastern Kansas Municipal Energy Agency. He advises me that the Agency is proceeding to explore the possG111ty of ownership in a proposed partnership arrangement with the Kansas City Board of Public Utilities. The Board's present plan is to construct Nearman #2 (340 mw) for commercial service 1986. With Agency participation they are considering increasing the size of the unit to the range of 500 to 600 mw.

Mr Hanson is arking what, if any, participation power or other purchase arrangements might be available to them. The Board will have some capacity the years '80 to '81 for the Agency. KCPL has indicated they can make participation or other arrangements for the years '80,

      '82, '83, '84. KPL indicates '83, '84, '85, '86. KCPL, incidentally, has estimated participation power out of Wolf Creek at $153/kw with energy at 8.4 mills escalated at 71 annually.

Mr Hanson has asked us to give him some indication of the amount 6 of power and energy, and price of energy, that might be available to them for the years 1980 through 1985. I did mention our slight deficiency in 1982. I also confirmed that the sale memorandum had been executed with KEPCo and that as stated in my letter to him March 29, 1979, ve are developing schedules to accommodate the KGkE/KEPCo agreements. I would recommend that we accommoda'te Mr Hanson with an answer l as soon as possible and make quantities and costs very approximate, as he will understand that. He also would appreciate us considering our estimates based on Wolf Creek commercial in the time frame 1983.

Dear Mr. Koester:

I would like to take this opportunity to officially introduce our Energy Agency in the interest of opening communications between the Agency and Kansas Gas and Electric Co. As I am sure you are aware, the Northwest Kansas Municipal Energy Agency was just recently organized pursuant State Enabling Legislation and as such, the Agency is in an embryonic state although informa12y, the Agency has been organized for one year. The Agency consists of the following Kansas cities: Colby, Ellis, Goodland, Lacrosse, Norton, Oakley, Oberlin, St. Francis, and Sharon Springs. The goal of the Agency is to provide its member cities with an adequate, reliable and economic source of future energy. To this end, j the Agency engaged the services of R. W. Beck and Associates to begin a preliminary study to focus the Agency's attention on the most logical way to accompolish the goals set for the Agency. 1 ) It will be the phi.losophy of this Agency, as long as it does not l impair the Agency's primary obligations to its member cities, to cooperate l with all other utilities throughout the State and Region. So if at any time you require any information from the Agency, have any questions, or would just like to discuss the Agency or the Agency's future plans, please do not hesitate to contact me. With my best regards, I am, Sincerely, Jay Berens, President Northwest Kansas Municipal Energy Agency JB/was l

Dear Mr. Cadman:

Late last year a group of cities in northwestern Kansas organized the Northwest Kansas Municipal Energy Agency. Prior to forming this Agency, an infonnal group commissioned R.W. Beck and Associates to conduct a prelimin-ary power supply study. The information and data in the report, dated March 1978, is now about two years old and there have been a number of changes in the area power supply picture since that time. The Agency is now updating this report and at the same time increasing the scope to review all possible known power supply alternatives open to the Agency. As a single Agency representing some nine municipal electric systems with common power supply problems, we plan to work together within the Agency and with the other power suppliers in the area to solve our future power supply problems, hopefully to the benefit of all concerned. We plan to investigate reasonable power supply alternatives for furnishing supple-mental power supply requirements of the Agency members, particularly for the period 1981 through 1990. We plan to discuss and analyze the possibility of Agency participation in generation projects planned by other entities in the area. We will investigate the possibility of construction of genera-tion projects by the Agency or certain of its members. Estimated costs of purchased supplemental power will be compared with estimated costs of power from the other alternatives discussed above and, based on the results of our studies, a long-range power supply program will be developed for the Agency. In order to realistically assess all viable alternatives, it is necessary that we request certain basic information from area utilities such as Kansas Gas & Electric Co. Accordingly, we would appreciate answers to the following questions.

1. Does Kansas Gas & Electric Co. have future generating projects or generating projects now under construction in which it would consider allowing the Agency to participate on an ownership basis?

October 18, 1979 Mr. Wilson Cadman Page 2

2. If so, what is the proposed schedule for cognercial operation of the generating units involved?

3. What are the estimated installed capital costs, fuel costs, 0&M and n"her relaimLP.apareneration costs for these generating units.

p ent:mwemmitYnf Taagm Arrrc_'-tg

4. Would Kansas Gas & Clectric Co. provide transmission service within its service area for delivery of Agency power to its municipal mem-bers (or to another utility for delivery to Agency members) from the above generation projects, from other participation generation, or from generating plants owned solely by the Agency? What would be the cost to the Agency for such transmission service? Please provide a copy of your current transmission service rate schedule.

5. Does Kansas 4 & Electric Co. have wholesale rates for possible sale of firm Mwer, peaking power, supplemental power, economy energy and em2rgency power and energy to the Agency for resale to its members? Please furnish copies of current applicable rate sch( dules .

In order to expedite our studies already in progress, we would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you to receive and discuss your answers to the above questions. I will call you the week of November 5 to schedule a meeting as soon as possible thereafter. In the maantime, please contact me if you have questions concerning the above. We have high hopes that, through a com-prehensive study of the power supply alternatives, we will be able to develop, with the assistance af all of you, joint action programs which in consideration of municipal financing advantages and cost advantages available to all of us through unified effort, will result in mutual benefits to all the area power suppliers. We earnestly solicit your cooperation with respect to our study program and we will appreciate hearing from you regarding the matters discussed herein.

He is desirous that we pursue the matter of the agency owning a package piece of Wolf Creek /Jeffrey #2. He does not want to initiate studies in the event partners elect to exercise first right of refusal options. I advised him that we would clear up that point but doubted if any problem existed. He again suggested that he was cartain he could get more western Kansas towns interested depending upon how much capacity we would make available. Since meeting with us they have met with KPL. The KCC asked that a comunission staff member sit in on the discussion as they did in our case. KPL refused.

O. Box 208 Wichita, Kansas 67201

Dear Mr. Lucas:

We have been instructed to gather data for the Northwest Kan.sas Municipal Energy Agency pursuant to an economic review of possible Agency power supplies. In this respect we understand that Mr. Gil Hanson, Agency General Manager, has discussed with KG&E N possible sale of portions of KG&E owned generating facilities to the Agency. In order to make the proper comparrisons for the Agency we need cost data associated with each generating unit being considered. The following is a list of data needed for this review:

1. Which units are being considered?

2. For each unit, what are the: .

a. amounts of participation being offered (minimum to maximum amounts)

b. costs per kW of pa-ticipation

c. projected commercial operation date

d. projected plant factor

e. projected fuel costs

f. projected fixed O&M

g. projected varriable O&M

h. projected transmission costs associated directly with the project.

i. other costs associated directly with the project.

3. Wheciing arrangements available to the Agency to move this power

4. Availability of reserves in connection with these units and what would be the costs of these reserves.

                                                                                                    -      2-We will be seeking to determine the cost of this power at the Agency Member delivery points. Any information you can add to the above list will be helpful.

The following information is provided in response to a data request dated December 21, 1979 from Mr. V. Thorwald, R. W. Beck, Inc., regarding par-

  .                 ticipation by the Northwest Kansas Municipal Energy Agency in the WCGS1

project. These estimates should not be considered as firm estimates but l may be used for cost evaluation purposes.

 !                  1.          Which units are being considered?

f l Wolf Creek Generating Station Unit No. 1 .I

2. For each unit, what are the:

a. Amount of participation being offered (MW)?

Eleven percent (11.0%) of KG&E's fif ty percent (50%) ownership

 ;                                      in WCGS1 or approximately 63 PGi, subject to existing contractual obligations.

b. Costs per kw of participation. $1400-1850/kw Range of estimated costs to the Agency to purchase ownership participation in WCGS1 assuming the pre-sent construction schedule and present budget estimates.

These estimates are based on recovery by KG&E of all actual capital costs'as well as reasonable compensation for management and risks which KG&E has carried during licensing and construction of the project. The lower value assumes Agency ownership beginning January 1981, while the upper value is based on Agency ownership beginning on the date of c(imercial operation.

c. Projected commercial operatiun date? April 1983

d. Projected plant capacity factor? 65 - 80%

A unit's capacity factor is dependent on its mechanical operability, regulatory constraints, the owner's load requirements, etc. Based on KG&E's experience and that of the industry we project annual capacity factors in .. the range shown. ti e. Projected fuel cost? , $8.30/mwh - 1984

                                                                                                       $11.60/mwh - 1987 On the basis of existing fuel contracts, inflation             $13.36/mwh - 1990 factors, projected commercial fuel price, etc., we             escalated at 6%

project fuel costs in dollars /mwh as shown. thereafter

f. Projected fixed 0&M7

                                                                                                        $20/kw-year in Now estimated as shown.                                         1984 escalated at 6.0% per year

g. Projected variable O&M7 -

All O&M assumed to be included in f., above. (continued)

      ~

Pcge 2 4 s

h. Projected transmission costs associated directly

. with~the project. No direct transmission investment by the Agency. An approximate monthly transmission service charge by KG&E ($/kw-mo) $1.45-$1.75 e Approximate energy losses 4 6%

i. Other costs associated directly with the project? -

Monthly service charges would be cade in order to cover dispatching costs, operating reserves, administrative and general expenses and other similar costs, but such a charge has not yet been

• estimated.

3. Wheeling arrangements available to the Agency to move this power?

KG&E has previously agreed.to sell transmission service to KEPCo for which KG&E will deliver to KG&E's interconnections the output from KEPCO's WCGS1 capacity. It is KEPCo's responsibility to make appropriate arrangements with other utilities whr, would then receive and transmit KEPCo's power and energy. KG&E is prepared to make a similar agreement with the Agency, all subject to mutually ag;eeable terms and conditions.

4. Availability of rese'.ves in connection with these units and what would be the costs of these reserves?

i To the extent that the Agency and its member municipal systems have additional dependable alternate get., ating capacity, the Agency could provide its own reserves. If the Agency chose to purchase reserves from KG&E and if FG&E were to agree to sell reserve capacity, the reserve capacity charge it presently forecasted to be approximately '$7.75/kw month. The pricing of any energy to be provided to the Agency by KG&E on loss of the Agency's generating capacity would be based on KG6E's cost to produce and/or procure the added amount of energy. . J. R.

    "*"'        May 20, 1980 suenct, I discussed the status of the Kansas Municipal Energy Agency with Gil Hanson by phone this morning.

R W 3eck has nearly all of the data on the participating cities' requirements. KPL has agreed to discuss a participation contract with the agency. KCPL is indicating they would make available 150 mw of participation power from Iatan and Wolf Creek through the year 1989. After 1990 they would expect to sell one half of that amount either out of Intan or Wolf Creek. The first official board meeting of the agency, whica now has 33 city members, will be tomorrow in McPherson. The summer peak, stacked, of the 33 cities is 300 mw. The total capacity of the cities' generating units which are all diesel, except some #6 oil-fired turbine cap?7ity,is 400 mw. Mr Hanson hopes to develop a letter of intent by middle of July if the feasibility study is positive and the cities are comfortable with Beck's recommendations. It would then be their intent to get down to discussing prices and terms with the bulk power suppliers.

                                                                     ~

__ ui _v. e __1.m m Mr. Gil Hanson of the Northwest Kansas Municipal Energy Agency was in Topeka last week to observe the KEPCo hearings. Mr. Vern Thorwald of 'd - R. W. Beck, consultant to NWKMEA was also present. Messrs. Hanson, Thorvald and I had dinner one evening and discussed the Agency's stud ' regarding their ownership in WCGSI. Some of their comments were as follows:

1. Agency ownership of a portion of WCGS1 as offered by KG&E appears to be economically attractive but not as cuch so as that offered by KCPL.

2. Apparently KCPL offered some WCGS1 ownership to the Agency and in addition offered some ownership in Iatan as well as a participation sale from Iatan. This would result in diversity of Agency resources which the KG&E offer did not have.

3. In figuring the selling price for unit ownership in WCGS1 and Iatan, KCPL would use the incremental costs of capital rather than the imr bedded cost as is used in standard AFUDC calculations. KCPL did not propose to add an additional amount to compensate for some of their troubles, risks, etc. Apparently .he 1983 KCFL price for WCGS1 capacity was about $1250-1300/kw.

4. Mr. Hanson said he understands and accepts the use of " incremental cost of capital" to figure the selling cost. I mentioned that there may be some important income tax considerations also. I said that I thought it was reasonable to expect to receive an " entrepreneurial fee".

He said he could accept that idea if the fee was a reasonable amount but not $60,000,000; e.g., between $1300 and $1400/kw.

5. Gil Hanson indicated the Agency is interested in a total of about 100-150 mw of WCGS1 capacity plus another 100-150 mw or so of owner-ship in other coal generation plus some participation purchases.

He was not pleased with KPL's offer of participation purchase in one or more Jeffrey unit rather than unit ownership. He said he was speaking of the needs for all but two of the State's generating municipals.

6. Gil indicated that KG&E should consider of fering ownership in a second unit, hopefully JEC he said, if KG&E's offer of WCGS1 ts to be attractive enough to the Agency.

(continued)

7. Referring to the estimated demand charges for transmission service as given to NWKMEA for their feasibility study, he said the estimate was two-three times as high as any transmission demand charge he had heard of before. He would like for us to review our estimate.

8. The R. W. Beck study is not yet completed. Gil Hanson would like to present the study results and assumptions to the Agency members in a month or so. First, though, he would like to clarify with KG&E the basis for some of the estimates.

9. Mr. Hanson said he had reviewed the version of the municipal contract which was recently presented to KG&E by the municipals. I said that from my reading of the proposal I saw several things which I found to be completely unacceptable. He asked that we not get too upset about those things but rather that we begin to talk with the municipais and explain the basia for why we believe certain contract conditions are required.

I believe Mr. Hanson would like to receive a call from KG&E management in-viting him to present tbnir feasibility results. This would also give both parties a chance to see if anything else could be done to make their analysis more complete. JRL:ke cc - Messrs. G L Koester W K Woolery R E Phillips 4

• FT. Ralph Fiebach Mr. W.B. Walker-At a recent meeting of the South Central Electric Companics, I had occasion to discuss with Austin !bry, one of the deans of interconnegted ,

system eperations group, their recent negotiations with RECS relative to whccling charges which, incidentally, they also call "transmis:1:n service" as we do in our municipal contracts. His statement was that - their probica with Culf States goes back many years before their con-sideration of a nucicar plant, and was a source of very much concern between themselves and two other SCEC systems. Culf States finally ecided they were going to act unilaterally on this issue and come to

                      .greement with the RECS. The other cocpanies chose not to follow this action and his statement was, "they are now in serious troubic". The rates they charge are as follows:

Delivery at 230 kv - 400 per l'o. Delivery at 138 and 69 kv - 45c per }fo. Delivery below 69 kv - 60c per Ho. . Plus .15 mills per kwh delivered for transmission losses. - They consider their plants on their 230 kv system. We probably in the same light would consider ours on our - 138 kv system.

• Austin's statement was that these rates were vcicemed with open arms by the FPC and RECS and their difficulty in proving the rates had been very minimal. He said he had a personal feeling that they could have .

set the rates nuch higher and had them accepted, but they did try to justify in their own minds that this was a true and fair cost of service. ESH:bb we

Mr. E.D. Prothro December 26, 1974 l l l Cost for delivery of power across KG&E system - 5 I believe we should get some figures together on the cost of delivering power across our system. In the past we have made purchases and sold blocks of power between and among HOKAN members on the basis of an energy charge of .5 raills pcr kwh for losses and profit, and .25 mills for handling, . . with no charge for demand. This is the basis of agreement under the Cencral Participation Agreement. We presently are working out a deal' to sell the pr'ojected SPA power via EDE to KCP6L for renale to the Kansas City ' Board of Public Utilities. This transaction will only be for 1200 hours but occurs during our peak. We should have a rate similar to our Coffeyville/Chanute Transmission Schedule which is based on our transmission investment. Picase furnish us with our total transmission investment for 1972-1973, and estimated years ending 197's, 1975 and 1976. Also, please cdvise what cost of ownership percentage we.should apply. In our old contracts we have been using . 15% per year. , I have a feeling we should look at this very closely as we will probably be setting a precedent for future sales. I also belicyc we should deliver this power at 161 or 138 kv, with an adder for 69 kv or lower voltage. ESH:hh cc: GWEvans RFichach WnW.11ker CLKocater " REPhillips BRuddick

We need to discuss the rate for transmission service and a contractual path, neither of which is very clear at this stage.

Exhibit B.4-6 Mr. Ralph Foster February 6, 1975 Attached is a copy of the Agreement for Interchange of ' Power and Interconnected Operation between EDE and KG6E. The Agreement has several Service Schedules for different types of service, but Service Schedule A attached comes the closest to what we are presently talking about. I would like to suggest that po.isibly we should file a new Service Schedule. This is done quite frequently for a various reasons. 2n fact, you will recall the Missouri-Kansas-Oklahoma 345 Kv Interconnection Interchange Agree-ment.has Service Schedules A through H, some of which . we will probably never use.

We have understood that there was to be a meeting - on Ebr-f *1 to discuss contractual arrangements relating to 25 mw of power that S P A proposed to sell to the Board of Public Utilities at Kansas City, Kansas. I called Bob Zimmerman but learned he would be out of town for two weeks and was then able to talk to Arthur Doyle. I explained to Art that February 11 was a very busy day for us and that we would be unable to meet on thai date. He then suggested that there would be no problem with moving - it to a later time and we subsequently decided on February 19 at 10:00 a.m. on the Eleventh Floor of the Kansas City Power & Light Company buildirg. I will let you know who will cover that meeting but wanted you to know of this change in plans. I f I RF/njp

Exhibit B.4-8 M Mr. W.B. Walker $# February 17, 1975 gM ' SPA Energy to Kansas City' BPU - Messrs. Fiebach, Cadran, Foster and I are going to Kansas City on Wednesday, February 19, to discuss with KCP&L how we should handle the transfer of power and energy from SPA to Kansas City BPU. While we are convinced that it . . should be a systeerto-system purchase and sale, we may have to consider a transmission rate. I need two figures from you:

1. Applicable investment in transmission plant,

2. Annual cost (% of transmission investment).

Attached is the Accounting tabulation dated 1/28/75 showing investment and Mr. Ruddick's tabulation converting to ,

                                 $/kw. Would you please comment on the best figure in your judgment that we should use. I suggest $1.00/kw/mo.

based on $70 average transmission value expected at about 17.1%. Please call me by telephone before Tuesday evening, if cossible. 1 ESil:bb Attach cc: RFie'ach/ b attach RFoster/ attach - WCadman/ attach e

Dear Mr. King:

This will acknowledge receipt of your February 4, 1975, letter. As mentioned in my January 27 letter, KCPL, KG&E an,d EDE have had an opportunity to meet and I am pleased to report posal under Article VII of the Power Sales Agreemen ' December 5, 1968. As you may know from Mr. Sanford, there are several' items in the 12/18/74 draft of theSome proposed SPA-BPU Contract which are merely languag'e items but others giveg KCPL some concern. For example, this draft would are important substantive matters. permit the delivery of hydro to that peaking extent,energy at a rate in excessgoes b of 25 IW and, at leastThere are other substantive and language re- ' 1974 notice to KCPL. visions which we believe would be appropriate. 12/18/74 Subject to resolution of certain revisions in the draf t of the proposed SPA-BPU Agreement, KCPL proposes that: .

1. The SPA-BPU Contract provide for delivery of up to 25 IN to BPU at SPA's 161 kV Carthage Substation bus for a term of 20 years beginning June 1,1977 (so as to compo Agreement with BPU).

2. BPU enter into a contract with EDE to sell and deliver the hydro peaking power and energy to EDE at SPA's 161 kv Carthage .

Substation bus where it should be available to BPU from SPA. -

                                                                                                                                .9

3. It is my understanding that under an existing Inter-connection Agreement EDE would then be willing to sell and de-

                                   ~

liver an equivalent amount of electric power and energy to KG&E under a Service Schedule to supplement the EDE-KG&E Inter-connection Agreement.

4. I further understand that KG&E would then be willing to sell and deliver an equivalent amount of electric power and '

energy to KCPL under a supplemental Service Schedule to an . existing KCPL-KG&E Interconnection Agreement. .

5. KCPL is willing to sell and deliver to BPU an equiva-lent amount of electric power and energy under a supplemental Service Schedule to the KCPL-BPU Municipal Participation Agree-ment dated July 8, 1964. Such Service Schedule would provide that BPU will reimburse KCPL for the amounts paid KG&E therefor plus KCPL's then current Long-Term Transmission Service rate ~ *

(now 55c per kw per month) plus agreed transmission losses. If the above proposal is acceptable to SPA and BPU,'I suggest that the first order of business should be to- perfect the proposed SPA-BPU Contract. I suggest that all parties be given an opportunity to furnish to SPA and BPU written com=ents and suggestions with respect to that draft. Thereafter, I would expect that BPU should contact Mr. Richard Allen, President of EDE, to arrange the BPU-EDE Agreement. If you or BPU should have gny questions concerning this proposal, please 'do not hesi-tate to contact me. Sincerely AJD:be . e e e e e.

Dear Mr. King:

This will acknowledge receipt of your February 4, 1975,* letter. As mentioned in my January 27 letter, KCPL, KG&E and , EDE have had an opportunity to meet and this letter is submitted as KCPL's definitive proposal under Article VII of the Power Sales Agreement dated December 5, 1968. , As you may know from Mr. Sanford, there are several items in the 12/18/74 draft of the proposed SPA-BPU Contract which give KCPL some concern. Some are merely language items but others are important substantive matters. For example, this draft would permit the delivery of hydro peaking energy at a rate in excess of 25 MW and, at least to that extent, goes beyond SPA's October 23, 1974, notice to KCPL. There are other substantive and language revisions which we believe would be appropriate. . Subject to resolution of certain revisions in the 12/1.8/74 draft of the proposed SPA-BPU Agreement, KCPL proposes that: ! 1. TheSPA-BPbContractprovidefordeliveryofupto , a 25 MW to BPU at SPA's 161 kv Carthage Substation bus for a term of 20 years beginning June 1, 1977. (so as to comport with the June 1 - May 30 Contract Year un er KCPL's Municipal Participation Agreement with BPU).

2. BPU enter into a contract with EDE to sell and deliver the hydro peaking power and energy to EDE at SPA's 161 kv Carthage Substation bus where it should be available to BPU from SPA.

auy fa. Ly Ladh - There may be one or two comments about Mr. Doyle's letter 3 of February 15 to Peter C. King. While I don't like BPU contracting with SPA direct, I don't -

• have a better suggestion; however, in the letter agreement under the existing interconnection agreement with both EDE and with KCPkL ,

it seems to me it would be better if we did not refer to either BPU v or SPA but only mention that the contracts were contingent on EDE making a certain amount of power available to us; and further,

      .a contingent on KCP&L taking a certain amount of power.                           ,_

Exhibit B.4-13 May 14, 1975 Proposed Transmission Service Schedule - MEMORANDUM Attached is a draft of proposed Service Schedule T for Transmission Service. This was prepared to be made part of the Interconnection Agreements with KCP&L and EDE. I realize we have tentatively decidt d , to make the SPA sale and purchase party-to-party, however, both 74P&L and EDE have transmission schedules. We have one that applies orly to Chanute cr'd Coffeyville. In preparing the draft I have lifted portions from the Coffeyvilla/ . Chanute contract and from the Transmission Schedule furnished to me by Austin Mary of Gulf States. I put some figures under the rate which should be verified or changed according to our transmission plant in service for delivery at these voltages. As a matter of information, Gulf States' rate for delivery is as follows: Under 69 kv...............$0.60 per kw per month 69 kv and 138 kv..........$0.45 per kw per month 230 kv....................$0.40 per kw per month , In addition to such charges, another charge of 0.15 mill per kwh will be made to cover losses. 1 The sulf States contract could be a formula for calculating these rates for trancmission plant and investment cost. Any comuments you j have on the draft would be appreciated. ESII:bb Attach'- cc: GWEvans RFiebach WBWalker GLKoester REPhillips i i U 4, *

Kansas, and Kansas Gas and Electric Company. It shall apply to the said parties for the purposes and in the manner as set forth in this Service. Schedule T. This Schedule cancels and supersedes that Service Schedule A dated June 1, 1966. Section 1 - Transmission Service . . Transmission Service as used herein shall mean the use of the facilities of the Company for the purpose of transmitting electric power and energy from one generating municipality to another.with whom the Company has Interco6nection Agreements substantially similar to this Agreement. Such electric power and 4 energy may be generated by or received by a generating municipality located in the company's service area, and shall be used by the retail and wholesale customers served by the. City. . Nothing in this Service Schedule T is intended to imply a privilege to use Company's facilities for any other purpose; nor is the City entitled , under this Service Schedule T to withdraw any power or energy from the Company's system which is not simultaneously balanced by equivalent input by'another genertting municipality or municipalities in the Company's service area. Any ' l withdrawal by the City which is in excess of the corresponding input by the other City or Cities (minor inadvertent flows excepted) will bu censidered a purchase of power from the Company under the Service Schedule which is cErrently applicable. T-1

Section 2 - Availability The City shall advise the Company in writing by a Letter of Intent of its transmission capacity requirement by July 1 of each year for the annual

     .                                     . period 18 months in advance, provided that the present contract demand is to.

be changed. 1 For its part, in no event will the transmission demand be specified by the City at less than 2500 kilowatts, nor will the demand exceed 20,000 kilo-watts, except by mutual agreement. Such written notice, upon acceptance by the Company wili become binding upon both parties unless and until thereaf ter amended by mus ' agreement.

                                                          ,Upon delivery and acceptance of such written notice, the Compahy will hold in readiness the transmission capacity therein specified for the use.of the City at such times as the City in its sole judgment may elect to use it to transmit power and energy to and from another participating generating municipality or municipalitiqs in the Company's service area. The City, in turn, agrees to pay for the spccified transmission capacity being reserved for its use whether or not it is actually needed.                                                                                              -

Section 3 - Adjustments within Contract Period In the event the City utilizes transmission capacity in excess of the amount specified in the Agreement and the Company agrees to furnish such , transmission capacity, the billing demand shall be adjusted upward by the amount , of such excess. The City agrees to confirm suel adjustuent by issuing a supple-mental Letter of Intent for the new Local capacity requireeents, which shall , bu effective.from the date such excess capacity was supplied and extend for i twelve (12) months thereafter. 1 T-2

If Company is not agreeable to providing such additional capacity for I said period, City shall pay for such excess capacity only for the billing month (s) in which the excess is supplied. Section 4 - Payment for Transmission Service For Transmission Service supplied under this Service Schedule T as - set out in Section 2, City shall compensate Company monthly at one-twelfth'(1/12) of the following annual rate:

                               $2.00 per kilowatt of demand based on tre amount of electric power and energy trans-                                           .       .

mitted to or received from another partic- , ipating generating municipality in the Company's service area. , Tax Adjustment Should any tax, federal, state, or local, in addition to such taxes as may exist on the effective date of this Schedule, be levied upon the Trans-mission Service provided hereunder, or upon the electric power and energy transmitted under this Schedule, or upon the capacity provided :. Jer this Schedule, or the receiptsfor revenue therefrom, (but not including federal or state corpocate income taxes), such tax may at the election of the Company be added to the compensation due it under this section of this Schedule.

O I have reviewed Mr. Hall's draft of a Transmission Service schedule j to be used in conjunction with Empire District Electric and Kansas . ... i City Power and Light transaction.

                                                                                                                                   ~_T. .T.

I have no serious disagreements with the draf t other than the rate .-  ; section. My recommendation using only above the investment on-138 ..- kv lines and substations and above would be as follows: . .

                              "For Transmission Service supplied under this Service

• Schedule T as set out in Section 2, Buyer shall compensate Company at the following monthly rate:

                                    $0.55 per kw of demand, plus 0.15 mill per kwh to compensate Company for losses."

For purposes of this Schedule, I do not think it advisable to break m out charges less than 138 kv. In the future, for supplying trans-mission service f rom Wolf Creek, we will have to make a similar study to determine a rate including 69 kv delivery. This will require separating the Central Kansas and Southeast Kansas 69 kv system. Attached is a copy of Mr. Hall's draf t with my remarks on it. I will be glad to discuss this at your convenience. 1 i 4 BWhitmer: eld i Attach. cc: Messrs. E. S. Hall R. E. Phillips .

e'.'5 ( Joplin, Missouri July 30, 1975 - jj,I' 3 St:.ye M- l r:.! eaeoIW The following is a summary of a meeting held in the Joplin office e p/,/f 3

                                                                                                                     '"I on July 29,1975, at 2:30 p.m. with Ralph Tearney, Director of Production Planning, and Gilbert Hanson, Senior Planning Engineer, both of the Board of Public Utilities of Kansas City, Kansas. The meeting was at the request g        of Ralph Tearney to discuss the purchase of _25 mw of power from SPA which by various contracts would involve Empire, Kansas Gas and Electric Company, Kansas City Power and Light Company and end up with Board of Public Utilities, Kansas City, Kalisas. Our attendance was by R. C. Allen and M. P. McInnes.

At the beginning of the meeting Ralph Tearney indicated that he was really in the Production Department and had a lull in his production planning at this time so he was thereby probably temporarily involved in' this. He asked that this be more of a preliminary meeting with a later one scheduled to finalize results. Dick indicated this was agreeable to him, - so this would be a planning meeting to put some concepts on the table. Ralph indicated they were interested in some type of figure for m wheeling of this power from SPA through our system so that they might get a handle on the overall cost to them. Dick answered that we had done some pencil pushing but had not arrived at a definite figure. We had arrived at an approximate figure that was close to the Kansas City Power and Light Com- .l pany established rate but that we historically and for a purpose have stayed clear of -the concept and practice of wheeling. We have made numerous short term arrangsments whereby we purchase power from one utility and re-sell it . to another and that is the way we would prefer to handle this. For instance, in the past when we purchased power from Public Service Company of Oklahoma and sold it to Associated and Associated called for so much of this power to be delivered, if we have it available on our system, we may supply it ourselves or we may choose to call for it from Ptblic Service Company of Oklahoma, but this gives us the option of either supplying it ourselves or calling for it - . from the original company and this gives us more flexibility in the purchase and sale of power. By past practice we have always bought and sold from neighbor to neighbor. Our mark-up is to take care of our invement cost plus losses and handling cost.

                                                                                                     ~

Gilbert Hanson asked about purchasing this at the Carthage SPA . . bus and selling it across our one line section to Kansas and thereby not involving our total system in the investment cost. Dick answered that this power will come into our system from various source,s or various ties with other utilities, including the Neosho tie with SPA, the tie with Arkansas Pcwer & Light Company at the far end of our system and the tie with our .

                                                                                        ~

Morgan substation and, therefore, we could ne dedicate only one line sectton

 "           for the use of this power. Also, our customers support out total investment in transmission facilities and it would not be. fair or equitable to them to take a piece out of our system and dedicate the 25 mw of sale to that one section of line. In this manner we had arrived at about the same cost that Kansas City Power and Light Company had arrived at -- this was in the 50 to             ,

60c per kilowatt month range. This is the investment that our customers have in our transmission and by rights if scme other utility is going to have use of that investment, they should pay their proportionate cost of this. Gilbert then said it was somewhat of coincidence that each of the y companies have a 55c per kilowatt month figure but if you add them all to- M - gether this would still be an overall cost of 50 to 55c per kilowatt month Nb (lumping the total investment into one figure and dividing it by the total N

                                                                                              '79 8#

kilowatt peak). Dick answered that he understood what he was saying but by

                                                                                              *I.ccl the same token we had to look at our own customers and our own investment -      Gr>*,

and our particular portion of this investment was at the rate of 50 to 60c' e

                                                                                          ~

c. c per kilowatt month. Dick stepped out for a minute for a telephone call and Gilbert asked about other ties and other contract paths. I answered that perhaps. there might be but this was the one that was under discussion. He was think-ing of Associated and that contract path up to Kansas City Power and Light Company and perhaps an overall cheaper contract path. He was a little con- . fused as to the contract path designation and tried to again tie this into one particular line so again I went through the concept of Empire and a Kansas Gas and Electric Company, for instance, with, the contract path being between companies and utilizing the tie line capability of all ties between the two companies, not restricting this to one particular terminal. The question of scheduling came up and their concept was they would have to schedule this power with Empire and Empire do the scheduling

The - - ' other concept which we had had was that they would contact Kansas City Power and Light who would in tmrn contact Kansas Gas and Electric Company who would contact Empire and we contact SPA, or perhaps Kansas City Power

• and Light act as scheduling agent, as they do in the MoKan Pool, whereby Kansas City Board of Public Utilities would contact Kansas City Power and ,,

Light Company who would in turn contact Kansas Gas and Electric, Empire ' and SPA. This is a detail that can be worked out at a later date. We set the time for our next meeting at 1:30 on August 19, in Joplin to have more definite ideas on our investment costs per Kilowatt and also on contracts. e Mr.T sk M. P.

Dear Ms. Francis:

The contract for the 25 mw of power for Kansas City Board of Public Utilities is in rough draft form. Our attorneys will look it over next week and we can hopefully finalize it and mail it to you the following week. I will be out of my office the week of June 21st but plan on being back June - e 28th. I would presume that you will wish to contact Mr. Glen Koester of the Kansas Gas and Electric Company, Wichita, Kansas, and Mr. Arthur J. Doyle of the Kansas 'ity J P;wer and Light Company on their contracts and procedures

• to pass this power an its way to Kansas City Board of Public Utilities.

In particular, please. confirm that Kansas City Power and Light Com-pany will be the scheduling agent for Kansas City Board of Public Utilities. Also, our normal method of handling the purchase and sale of wholesale power is as follows: We would purchase this power from Kansas City Board of Public Utilities. They would invoice us for the power they schedule each month. In turn, we would invoice Kansas Gas and Electric Company for the power scheduled to them under a sales contract. Kansas Gas and Electric Company would in turn invoice Kansas City Power and Light Company who would invoice Kansas City Board of Public Utilities. Our invoice would be in two parts. The first part for the demand of 25 mw and the second part would be for the energy scheduled. t If you have any questions on this, I will be back in my office most' of the week of June 28th and'will be glad to answer them. In the meantime, our contract with Kansas City Board of Public Utilities w ll be developed along the above lines. Sincerely yours,

                                                                                                        *        .        d                                .

I have reserved this date for this meeting and hopefully we can mutually arrive at contracts for the delivery of

• this power from SPA to the Board of Public Utilities.

5 This draft, which you have, is marked preliminary and subject to modification during this meeting. As I mentioned, the escalation associated with construction of generation and trans-missien facilities, fuel costs and other related items, gives us concern about the 25c demand per kilowatt mark t.p and the 10% energy mark up. These items were marginal at the-beginning of the contract discussions and contract provisions need be included which would per- . mit us the option of at-least recovering our costs in this area. I would appreciate your reviewing the draft and if you have any questions, forwardidg th6m to my secretary, Einora Hunt, for her *

forwarding to me during'my vacation the next couple of weeks.

I normally touch base with my office frequently during vacations and will, therefore, become aware of any developments or schedules as they occur. t . i Sincerely yours, c . MPM:EH Enclosure , , cc - Mr. Art Doyle !~ -Mr. G. L. Koester

Dear Mr. Koester:

I would appreciate at your earliest convenience any comments or suggested changes to Schedule F, Interchange Service, which I sent ' to you by telecopier on Thursday, February 17. I am sure that any suggested language changes that you may have would be acceptable to KCPL. To avoid any misunderstanding or ill-feeling on the Board's part, I believe we should get a draf t of a rate schedule between our companies in their hands at the earliest possible date.

                      .                       Very truly yours,.                                    .

Exhibit B.4-24 a e' POsan 1877 ety. I.47 e, - INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE TO' Mr. Glenn L. Koester DATE' April 12, 1977 susuct, g@M1 . 0 Attached is a copy of the proposed Service Schedule F of which you asked for comments. I have made a few minor suggestions but have no real disagreement with the basic schedule. I agree with the three-word addition in the energy charge. This may be difficult to support with FPC, but we can probably find a way. The only serious question I have' is *

• Part (b) of Section 4. I don't think we would want to be in the ,

position of not having a buyer but still having to take power from EDE. Possibly we would want to terminate concurrently with (a) and (b). . In general, the schedule appears to be adequate for the EDE transaction. r%-

I feel uneasy about our SPA-EDE-KCP&L-BPU tiansactions which began July 1, 1977 without signed contracts or FPC approval. Bill Whitmer has not been notified to file with FPC.- Neither Vern Corkle of EDE or Arnold Samuels of KCP&L have other than + verbal instructions to recognize and facilitate the proposed SPA-BPU transactions. So far in July we have recorded 13 daily schedules amounting to - 1900 MWH's. Unless I hear otherwise from you, we will continue to honor the BPU-SPA schedules and perhaps you can expedite the approved service schedules with KGE, EDE and KCP&L. Without at least a draft copy of the proposed agreements with EDE and KCP&L, we will have a difficult job preparing billing , for the month of July. f ..__E.C.C IV L ' 6.- i g .. L 16 '. . 1

Dick Curtis Zv. _ . . called me and I visited with Mr Monroe. _,--- Mr Monroe stated that both KP&L and Empire were coming in to *- make a survey of Oswego's system. They plan to do this within the next two months. He mentioned that he had visited with you about 3 or 4 months ago to see if KG&E would be interested in their system and , at that time you had indicated that due to litigation we were

        'O                   not in a position to make a definite commitment.

Mr Monroe stated that the city would be interested in having KG&E take a look at their system. He wanted us to know the system is definitely for sale and would like to know what our thinking might be at this time.

The lionorable James D Stephens ' Mayor of Oswego 703 Fifth Street Oswego, Kansas 67356

Dear Mayor Stephens:

Thank you for your letter of March 28, 1980. It is our understanding that the City of Oswego is presently receiving its wholesale power from The Kansas Power A and Light Company under a contract which expires May 1,1985. ' .' While your contract remains in effect, we could not seriously ' consider the possibility of retail electric service to your city. Should it become possible for KG6E'to consider retail i service to Oswego, it would be necessary for the city to furnish us some information about its system,as I have previously men-tioned to you; city clerk, Rufus Monroe. KG&E would also expect Oswego to put a price on its system. If you will provide us a with the following data, it would be possible to make a prelim-inary determination as to whether we could justify the investment necessary to purchase your system without adversely affecting the rest of our present customers.

Dear Mrs. Ridgeway:

Thank you for sending us a copy of the agreement and service schedules with the City of Girard. We have been retained by Girard to prepare a cost-type study to guide the City in planning for its future power supply. The study is needed because of the imminent need for generating capacity expansion at Girard, should operation continue with an interconnec-tion agreement similar to the present (or expired?) contract with KGE. We have been directed to examine all reaaonable sources for power supply to Girard, including: I (a) purchase of all power and energy from KGE. (b) total self-generation by Girard. (c) all feasible and available methods of operation with mixed purchased power and self-generation. l In order to prepare the comparative cost-type study required,

we will need cost information about all feasible operating arrange-i ments, like (a) and (c) above, tr.at can be offered by KGE.

l Your assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, l V V'  % 478970,, D. D. Robb, Ph.D. [ <8 4 AUG1979 6 DDR:ss I h Cust !.Comm. k Services cc: Bernard Ruddick f S?,.c a c$y

Dear Mrs. Ridgeway:

Thank you for seniling the pWM-575 rate schedule and fuel clause rider, which would be applicable in case Girard should decide to purchase all power and energy from KG&E. In order to estimate the purchased power costs as accurately as possible, I will need data about the magnitude of the fuel adjustment charges that are now being made under this rate schedule. Can you furnish recent fuel adjustment charges for n year or so past so that I might see the trend? Are you in position to make any predictions about the future trends of fuel adjustment charges under this rate schedule? We are looking forward to receiving the propcaed Generating Municipal Electric Service Agreement as soon as possible. Thank you for your continuing assistance.

Dear Mrs. Ridgeway:

We have a question about the definition of " adequate reserve capacity," which is found in Schedules A, B and C of the 1967 Girard contract. We are assuming that similar wording for " adequate reserve capacity." will appear in the proposed new contract. Is the 25% reserve requirement based upon the use of gross (total installed) generating capacity of Girard? Or is it based upon the first-contingency generating capacity, where the one largest unit is assumed to be out of service? Many thanks for your continuing assistance. Sincerely, D. D. ROBB AND ASSOCIATES, P.A.

Dear Mr. Robb:

Attached is a copy of our proposed Generating Municipal Electric Service Agreement and Service Schedules A, B, C, and T, along with a copy of our letter of Septerter 4 to Mayor Hell. Paragraph 3.3 under ARTICLE III in the attached Agrecront defines adequate reserve capacity. This definition is also contained in Service Schedules A, B and C executed by the City of Girard in March 1967. - Installed generating capacity as mentioned in paragraph 3.8 means the City's gross generating capacity less station uses.

• Let me know if we can be of further help.

Dear Mrs. Ridgeway:

This is to thank you for your letter of September 10, with the proposed new municipal generating agreement. Thanks also for the clarification of the definition of " adequate reserve capacity". We have a question about the Transmission Service schedule, although there is no presently known interest at Girard in ex-changes with other municipals. The charges described on page T-3 seem to define 50% of the total charge. Where is the other 50%? Is it paid by the second municipal party to the whee ~.ng What if three municipals exchange power among them-j operation? j}g,"'17". *."< " "" **" ~ ?

Dear Mr. Robb:

This is in response to your questions contained in your letters of September 12, 1979. (1) Transmission Service - Assuming two municipals are involveil in transmission service, each municipal would pay 50% of the total charge. If three municipals were exchanging power, each municipal would be billed for their contracted amount. For example, one municipal contracts for 10,000 kw and the other two contract for 5,000 kw each. The one municipal would be billed on the basis of 10,000 kw and the other two for 5,000 kW each. (2) ARTICLE III, Paragraph 3.6 - Your understanding is correct. (3) ARTICLE I, Paragraph 1.4 (Sub-paragraph (b)) - This equipment may never be required. We do not consider it likely, in Girard's case, that such equipment would be required during the initial tem of the proposed agreement. (4) Firm Power Service - It is KG&E's intent that Firm Power Service contracted for under this schedule through a Letter of Intent be for a minimum tem of one year. At the present time we do not have a short tem fim power schedule. To answer your telephone questions of this morning: , (1) According to our records and information, the city owns'the 69 kV transformer . located just outside the power plant. (2) Proposed rate increase on PWM rate. Attached is a copy of rate schedule PWM-178, and appropriate Fuel Adjustment Clause Rfder, which may be helpful to you in your computations. I

Dear Mr. Robb:

You are correct . . . should Girard decide to discontinue all generation, then costs should be estimated using Phl78 with a 15% reduction as stated in my September 18 letter. Attached is a table showing the fuel factors applicable for the P%178 rate for the period January 1978 through

  ;I Septenber 1979. My apologies for not including this with the rate schedule.

The 60% load faGor maximum specified in Service Schedule A means that energy taken under this. Schedule cannot be greater than at a 60% load factor on an annual basds. Your example of the City contracting for 1,000 kw for one year is correct--1,000 kw X 8760 hours X 60% load factor = 5,256,000 kw. Please advise if you have additional questions.

Dear Mrs. Ridgeway:

Here are some questions that I think are likely to arise. It will be very helpful if you can send answers.

1. Is it true that all of the rate schedules and contract terms that can be applied to municipal electric utilities now have to be filed with and approved by the FERC?

2. Does the KCC now have jurisdiction over the rate schedules and contract terms between Kansas utility com-panies and municipal electric utilities?

3. Is it true that a utility company in Kansas is required to offer the same rate schedules and terms to all municipals on its system? If not, to all municipals in the same area?

Your continuing assistance is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, I D. D. Robb, Ph.D. DDR:bb gjargy 0 OCT1979 T.2

Mr. Dennis Evans k February 12, 1980 Max Haden called this morning stating he had received a call from Bill Senecaut. Utilities Connissioner in Girard. The city of Girard is very seriously considering closing down their generating l plant and taking a new PWM Wholesale Agreement with KG&E. The taking of a PWM agreement now is contingent on securing from KG&E a two-waf feed from us to their system. By copy of this letter I am asking Messrs. Lucas and Ruddick to check out a two-way feed. Mr. Senecaut would like to have this information as soon as possible. You will recall a copy of our proposed agreement for Wholesale Electric Service was furnished to Girard in December 1979.

I s e B.8-1 INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE To, Memo to File DAT e, August 25, 1978 SUBJECT, Winfield City Clerk, Ron Musson, called me to discuss f supplying them with rate schedules for LLP, commercial . and residential. They are presently undergoing rate analysis having retained Black & Veatch. During our conversation, he inquired as to the Company's interest to serve Winfield wholesale, retail and/or purchase their generating facility. I replied that I i had no idea . .

                                                     . that several avenues may be open, and it would require some study. Pointed out that I was not in a position.to discuss it unless the city commis-sion made a direct inquiry relative to meeting to discuss j                    the aforementioned items. At that time, proper officials with the Company would be advised, and a meeting arranged to consider their questions.

Dear Mr Elder:

Attached, per your request, are copies of billing comparisons using your monthly electric requirements and demands figured on both the PWM-575 and PWM-178 rate schedules. You will note both tabulations include the net bill with the discount and without the discount. You also requested a copy of our sample calculations. We have attached a detail of billing showing the calculations applicable to your July 1978 demand and KWH. One of the detailed bills reflects the

             ,_s -             discount; the other one'is without the discount.

Let us know if you have additional questions. Sincerely. i I DE/ck

B.8-6 o- Meeting with City of Winfield 11-20 /9

           -/   Sixth Floor Conference Room John Elder--City of Winfield                Jim Lucas Dennis Evans                                Les Morgan W. K. Woolery                               Verna Ridgeway            ,

Decemoer 4, 1979 Winfield has been studying various ways to insure a more reliable system. If the city were to lose their tie or a transformer, they would have to fire up their old gas turbine and would take several hours. Winfield's present plans are to bolster their tie-in with KG&E. They have no plans t Jd additional units . . . additional capacity will be purchased.from Mr. Elder distributed copies of their Exhibit III, System One Line Diagram showing immediate proposed improvements to their old and new plants. These improvements are scheduled to start in the very near future and include a 69 kv line from the Interconnect Sub to their old power plant and a 69/12/4 kv transformer, all in 1980, and a 69 kv line from KG&E's Oak Sub to Winfield's Interconnect Sub in 1981. Winfield stated they planned to stay with the present KG&E metering location. Winfield feels having three separate lines to their Interconnect Sub will insure greater reliability and is the most economical solution for them. Winfield's long range (15-20 years) plans include closing the 69 kv loop around the city by building a 69 kv line between the power plants. p d

              . Winfield asked about building a 69 kv line to parallel with our Oak-Winfield 69 kv line. We have no objection; however we suggested as great a distance as pessible between lines, suggesting the line be constructed east of Strother Field.

KG&E had no problems with their proposed immediate plans. Winfield was asked to send KG&E a letter stating their intentions to construct the Oak-Winfield line and to furnish design plans for this tie for our engineering people to review. They hope to get started on this tie within the next year or so. Winfield was reminded that there is limited capacity in the present Weaver-Winfield-0ak 69 kv line which serves as the present interconnection.

 !                Winfield is studying the proposed contract and preparing comments.

Mr. Lucas asked Winfield to furnish data on their system power factor under heavy load conditions. This information is necessary for future demand studies. VR: mat

Dear Mayor Lewis:

During the past 8 years, Kansas Gas and Electric Company has provided elec-tric service to the City of Burlington, a relationship we enjoy and hope - will continue into the future. , , However, almost all utilities have encountered a variety of difficultips in maintaining and increasing service in recent years. I'm sure many of these difficulties are not unknown to your city utility. One result has been that we are not able to recover the full cost of service under present rates. . To help us overcome these difficulties, we are requesting an opportunity to discuss with you a new wholesale contract. We hope to be able to negotiate a new contract that is fair and equitable to all parties and we are anxious to begin discussions if the city approves of doina so. So discussions can begin, we must reluctantly give notice of termination. A formal notice of temination of the existing contract is enclosed. Our hope is to begin discussions at a time convenient for you and with a mutual objective of continuing service with no interruption after the current agreement expires. Similar notices are being sent to other involved generating nunicipals and . to rural electric cooperatives as individual contracts make it appropriate. We appreciate the opportunity to be serving you now and we will look for-ward to working out a mutually satisfactory agreeinent about future service. We want.to continue to serve Burlington and we hope ynu will continue to find KG&E is an economical source of electric power. Please let me know when you would like to discuss a new agreement.

After a careful review, we believe that the most economical and expedient way to provide service to New Strawn would be to tap our 13.8 KV construction loop at Wolf Creek and run about 4.9 miles of new 13.8 KV line. As near as we can determine, there is adequate capacity in the construction loop for this additional load. The tap would be made at the northwest edge of the project where the construction loop goes overhead. The line would run north approximately parallel to our 345 KV line to the Sharpe road. From there it would run due west to liighway 75, thence south to New Strawn. As near as we can determine, it appears that most, and possibly all, of the new line can O eit ner be on our property or the public right-of-way. At approximately the point of tapping the construction loop, a 50 ampere recloser would be installed. At New Strawn, a 4-step voltage regulator would be provided to reduce voltage to 12.5 Kv, the present distribution voltage in New Strawn. Our estimate for the total job as described is $96,000. - .. __. I d ' M This figure does not include anything for distribution O within New Strawn. c

Dear Dennis:

I have gotten tied up this morning but wanted to advise you of my conversation with Dennis Roth yesterday afternoon. Dennis repeatedly stated that because of the REA attitude toward electric service to be supplied to a mobile home park in or near New Strawn, the city fathers were extremely upset and wanted to oust the REC from serving the city. ("'N Apparently the REC does not have a franchise agreement with the city, and Dennis simply wanted to advise that they were going to attempt to terminate whatever rights the REC has and would request service from KG&E (or perhaps KP&L) . I stated that it appeared to be more of a company matter than a legal matter insofar as KG&E was concerned; that I new of an ongoing legal matter with the REC and that for company reasons the New Strawn matter should be reviewed by the company in light of the other pending matters. I also advised that I was completely unaware as to d the impact that the Territorial Bill may have on prospective service by KG&E. Our conversation concluded with me saying that either yourself or Mr. Cadman would be in contact. Yours truly, Rober A. Vohs RAV/jc

February 3, 1978 m The Honorable Otis H Jones Mayor City of New Strawn New Strawn, Kansas 66839

Dear Mayor Jones:

We understand that a referendum will be held to determine the future of electric service to the citizens of New Strawn. We feel it is important to call ~ the following information to your attention. Kansas law includes a statute KSA 25-1709 commonly referred to as the Corrupt Practices Act. A copy is attached for your infor-mation. Generally speakinq, this statute makes it illegal for certain corporations and stockholders to influence or affect the vote on questions submitted to voters. It is our understanding the statute applies to both power suppliers that will be considered by the citizens of New Strawn. This is to advise you that K%E will adhere strictly to the letter of the law, will not and cannot take any action, previous to the election when held, to influence its outcone. Ne would expect the Coffey County Cooperative to act accordingly. Please contact me should you have further qaestions in this regard. Sincerely, DE/vr Attach cc - Mr Dennis Roth, City Attorney City of New Strawn bc - Executive Group S M Haden J 0 Arterburn

RE: Petition to call to a l voto franchiso ordinance

Dear Concerned:

A formal petition to call to an election the franchise ordinance No. 77-13 has been received with an excess of 20% l of the legally qualified voters as required by K.S.A. 12-2001 l et seq. The petition has been examined by the City Clerk, ! Coffey County Election Officer and myself as City Attorney, ! and find that althourJh the petition is deficient in savoral ! areas in that the same does not contain several statutory I clauses as required, that the obvious intant of the petitioners

i .?. February 6,1978 Page 2 is clear and the petition complies with the spirit of such

               .        statutes that govern this matter.                    Therefore the same is approved by this office.

The next steps, as required by K.S.A. 12-2001 et. seq. and the applicable special question election laws are

1. That the grantee of tne franchise (KG&E) pay to the City Troasurer of New Strawn such sums as are required to pay for the election.

2. Upon receipt of the same the llayor shall issue a proclamation calling the election. (This in

'                             effect is notice to County Election Officer of the intended date of the election, who shall proceed with publishing of the proclamation.)

2a. The proclamation shall contain: (1) The purpose for which the election is

                 --                   called.

(2) Sat out the franchino ordinance in full. (3) The proclamation shall be published i three (3) consocutive wooks in the official city j newspapor, dio last publication of which shall i, vs not less than thirty (30) days prior to the

      !                                election.

1 l (4) The proclamation could be combined with

   'l,                                 the statutory notice of the~ spacial cloction

• which should contain the proposition to be sub-mitted.

{ l 4 g (5) Preparation of ballots, appointment of judges and clerks. l i (6) Preparation of :,otices'in rogdrd to the f1 , retf stration books. i l g e (7) All other matters required by statute on

t. spocial question elections.

     , g/                      The County Election Officer, Jack Scott, estimates that cost of the election will be $250.00. Upon receipt of nonies
                                                                                                 ~

Kansas Corporation Commission Mr. Phillip M.. Fromme . County. Attorney , State Office Building Coffey County Courthouse Topeka, Kansas 66625 Burlington, Kansas 66839 Attention: Fred Adams I RE: New Strawn Electric Franchise i . Gentlemen: . l In light of the fact that a franchise ordinance , to Kansas Gas & Electric is now upon petition being submitted to the citizens of New Strawn by special election March 28, 1978, and upon request by the o governing body of New Strawn, I take this opportunity to call to your attention certain laws regulating the conduct of interested parties to this election. K.S.A. 25-1709 provides:

                                                      "No corporation carrying on the business                                                     -

company, or any c6mpany having the right to take or condemn land or to exercise

 .                           franchises in pub 1ic ways granted by the state or by any c,ounty or city , and no trustee or trustees owning or holding the mpjority of the stock of such corpora-tion,'shall pay or contribute in order to aid, promote or prevent the nomination or election of any person toipublic office, or in order to aid, promdte or antagonize the interests of any poli'tical party or to influence or affect the vote on any question submitted to thy voters. No person shall solicit or receive such payment or contribution from such cor-poration or such holders'of stock."

In my opinion t.he word contribute is to be inter-proted in a broad manner and would , encompass non-monetary efforts through agents, employees etc. The [*h Kansas Supreme Court in State, exrel Morgan vs. City of Newton,138 K. 78, 23P2d. 463, hah ruled that the forerunner of this statute applies to municipal franchise elections. . The penalty .for violation is contained in K.S.A. 25-1710 and provides: 1 "Any corporation which violates any of the l provis' ions of this act shall, upon convic-l tion be punished by a fine of not more l than Ten Thousand Dollars , and any of ficer, l director or agent of a cprporation violating any of the provisions of this act, or who authorize such violation, or any person, who - violates, or in any way knowingly aids or abets the violation of any of the provisions . of this act, shall, upon conviction, be I punished by a fine of not more than One l Thousand Dollars." It is manifestly clear that the people are to choose and decido election issues free from self-vested propaganda and acts. Any conduct falling within the ., 4 n

jemg Mr Douglas Stratton's legal opinion was that an EL was not required for service to KG&E loads on KG&E property per the limited certificate (Docket No. 107,167-U). However, if the City of New Strawn grants KG&E a franchise and the 13.8 kv substation is used for retail service to New Strawn, the present limited certification will have to be superseded. Also, in the event a portion of the 13.8 kv line serving the trailers is utilized in serving New Strawn, an EL application will becore necessary at that time. Based on Mr Stratton's opinion, the installation of service to the l trailers will proceed as scheduled with routing governed by engineering and economic considerations. 1 . d+n ( DLMitchem/ ash e c -- -- , e , +-w - -- -~r - --

t Meeting held April 28, 1978 - Second Floor Conference Room

Subject:

Necessary steps to take to have service available to New Strawn by June 1,1978. Attending: W B Walker Dennis Evans Bernard Ruddick Max Haden Jack Skelton Vern Middlebusher O. . ' Melvin Ayers Gary Benson - Bob Scriven Verna Ridgeway W B Walker presided. Approximately 200 customers. What has to be done and who will do it?

1. Customer Accounts. We would prefer that the Coffey County REC will read their meters the date of transfer, bill their kwh's. KG&E will start from that point. Main contact people with REC will be determined by Dennis Evans and Max Haden. Cooperative should make their refund of deposits; KG&E will request deposits; Cooperative to be responsible l\ for any accounts due, miscellaneous items, etc.

Quite a few sub-meters; no demand meters noticed by Benson; some ' hi419hters metered. One customer presently served by REC does not show on platted map as outside the platted area -- The cooperative can pick up that customer by building 1/4 to 1/2 mile of line. i

2. Will we get signed contract from customer? Yes. Representative will get enough information so as to be able to assign a rate, along with customer's address and any other necessary information.

3. Customer Deposits. Will attempt to get a deposit from transients (mobile homes). Standard procedure on other residential customers --

no deposit to start with unless pay practice deteriorates.

4. First bill should be for no more than 30 days -- part month bill if necessary.

Meters: KG&E able to handle 4 and 5-dial meters. Can handle 3-dial t meter manually. Some meters are digital. Will remove existing meters l and replace with KG&E meters. Try to buy meter in place; then schedule for maintenance, etc. Good meters will be put back into service. If REC wants to buy back meters, KG&E will se'l.

5. We need to know the cost of doing all of this work - expense-wise.

Account suffix will be assigned for employees use in accounting for time, expenses, etc. (See Skelton's letter -f May 1,1978.) WAs will

                    - be prepared; one for getting line t i .he city and the other for work inside the city limits.

            ,   2-                                                   -2 l

l J KG&E will take,over transforwers.

       ~

6. Responsibility for negotiating for going on US Hwy 75. If REC will l 1et us attach, we will; otherwise will go to KCC.

7. How will we get a price?

FERC Rules -- Make original cost from books of Cooperative. Walker: Take inventory, age it best we can, price it on average use. FERC system -- it would be okay. Accounting must be approved by FERC. g]g 8. Try to get from REC.

1. Hi-lighter ownership -- Any type of customer information available.

2. UG routing and size and ddtermine if conduit or no conduit.

3. Try to get maps.

4. Pad-mount transformer size.

5. Who owns pads? Assume REC does.

9. Meter Department will make field inventory of all raters.

10. Where will New Strawn customers pay electric service bills? Try to arrange for a bank to take payments. If bank not agreeable, bills will have to be mailed to office in Fort Scott.

11. No street signs -- nor any street lights.

Advances for construction - handling would be questionable, but might pick

      ,-           up on our own system.

Assign meter book number, Earning Point number (27) and billing district (meter readings date). Joint pole use agreement - United inside? - SWB outside? - Does present agreement cover new area? Jack Skelton, Acting Secretary cc - Mr R L Rives 1

• Walker presided meeting on taking over New Strawn.

He recommended that we read the meters June 1st for starting our own billing. . They would bill up to dune 1st, refund their own. deposits, and collect their own arrears. . Ad/vances for Constniction - handling would be questionable,3ut might pick them up on our own system.

            - Benson said there are lots of sub-meters, no demands that he knew of, lots of metered Hi-Lighters and maybe 19 unmetered HLs.
            ,1 customer outside area, od lake road, served f rom city circuit would probably be served by REC via their new line to be constructed.

City could annex, but reportedly would not while present owner is there. Preferable to hund attach to their poles, rather than building over Q -' them. Get signed' contracts and rate infomation via FS personnel.

             - Get depnsits on mobile homes, but let others go until needed.

Initial bill should be less than 30-days. Iots of Will change out maters / enclosures as soon as posnible. cycloseter tyre. Charge $86.1 and special suffix. Possibly have contractors build the newline; sers rate WA for this. Another WA for reconstruction in city. Questionable inventory on UG routing /conduf.f/ size. Maps?

          -     Have Foster draf t letter to a sk for Maps, etc.

Need size, data on pad-mount transformers - inside locked vaults. Middlebusher will get meter inventory. For billing, can best handle h and 5 dial meters, no cumulative demands. Need some type of company meter number on New Scxvice Orders. However, can somehow Street addresses and numbers would be good. handle exceptions - via Computer-Manual or Hanual billing, Haden said he would offer up to $25 per month for Bank to handle p payment of bills. Else, custcmers could mail to Fort Scott. Emphasis was that we needed to be in a position to take over on June 1st, a'Ithough various delays may be encountered. Anticipated that negotiating the price wou}d not delay the take over date, but if REG contests certain other things could delay take over. Attended: W. B.

For example: 17-903.09 - securing service contracts, mailing addresses, determining customers deposits, preparation of computer transactions, etc., 17-586.29 - securing meter information, 17-588.09 - T & D maps and records, 17-908.09 - customer assistance expenses. The "9" is always shown in the 2nd position to the right of the decimal place; and ,it cannot be used with any 800 clearing SCcounts. If you encounter other accounts that you feel may be applicable, please call me before using them. I would expect the use' of the "9" suffix to cease from one to two months after electric service starts. CUST.&COVM' gy SU,v.ttpr' PLCElva g

We would also appreciate having the customer infonnation which is available that would relate customers' addresses, meter numbers and transformers. We would like to have this information just as soon as possible >

                        -               in order'to complete our ' calculations.             .

As you know the franchise date for our providing service to the - iCity of New Strawn is June 1 ,1978. The Fort Scott Division has been working to complete plans for building a line from Wolf Creek Substation to the edge of the City. The EL Application for this project has not been submitted as we did not have a Certificate of Convenience and Authority to serve New Strawn. The Certificate had not been submitted due to lack of the legal description of New Strawn which has now been provided to the Engineering Department. In the meeting held on Friday, April 28, the information necessary for accounting purposes and plans to complete service to New Strawn were discussed. We reviewed the need to be prepared to serve New Strawn by June 1, even if the job needs to be contracted. We have officially requested certain infonnation from the Coffey p County REC in order to be accurate in our analysis of their system ' within the city limits. If they fail to provide the.information to us, we will estimate certain items, such as length of services and age of equipment. 5 l ] 4 . , .. . , ',2 .

Bo10-22 4., .. , s Mr Woolery May 10, 1978 O I understand that we plan to provide service to customers in the city of New Strawn about June 1. I know we wish to make this transition as smoothly and orderly as possible. I have some questions regarding the New Strawn sit-untion which may not be my concern, but I raise them for my own edification. , Question 1 - We have a franchise to serve the city of New Strawn. Under the new single certificate law (2047), does the fact that 1 we have a franchise eliminate the necessity of including l ~ the area inside the city limits in our legal descriptions [*\ of areas in Coffey County to be singly certificated to KG&E7 If it does not, then we should add the legal description of that area to those already filed with the Commission. Question 2 - I understand that we plan to serve the city of New Strawn with a new line originating at the substation constructed for the purpose of serving our loads in and around Wolf Creek Plant. The line would be built through our plant l property, then through REC territory to New Strawn. In February 1976, we received a limited Certificate of Convenience and Authority to transact business in the This certificate ' area of our Wolf Creek plant property. limits us to serving our loads and states that we shall l l serve no other load off any such facilities and prohibits ' us from engaging in any retail operation below 230 kv. l My question here is, can we serve New Strawn in the manner proposed without a change in the limited certificate? If not, do we plan to request a change in the certificate

        'which would also change our application for single certifi-cation in Coffey County?

B.lo-24 Mr Ralph Foster May 15, 1978 O As you know, this morning I' visited with Ward Salisbury of the KCC who had discussed the service. to New Strawn with Gary Dawdy and Fred Adam. Their conclusion was that KG&E needed to apply for an Amendment to the Limited Certificate which we hold for service in Coffey County. I talleve this is Docket No. 107,167.-U. Since our existing Certificate specifically prohibits us from serving any retail customers, we will need to change this to give us the right to seek transmission rights from Wolf Creek to New Strawn as well as the ability to serve an area such as New Strawn within this area. f**s As you know our franchise date is June 1,1978, thus the timing I on filing this knendment is critical. Hay we niease have your ! assistance as quickly as possible to resolve this matter? l l DE/vr i cc - Messrs Wilson K Cadman G L Koester/ John Hansberry W K Woolery/ John Hartford *

3. On May 31, 1978 KG&E filed an application in Docket No. 197,167-U'for an amended limited certificate of convenience and authority which would allow KGEE to engage in the distribution and sale of electric power below 230,000

' volts to electrical customers within the corporate limits of

         ,'                   the City of New Strawn and 'within any territory subsequently annexed by the City of New Strawn, and to transmit power to a point or points within the said City of New Strawn. The application would also allow KGEE to serve its own load at any voltage in the above-described territory. The basis of

o . . the application is that subssquint to approval of ths appli-cation and amended application for a limited certificate which was granted on February 11, 1976 residents of the City of New Strawn, Kansas, a municipal corporation, at a ref-erendum elected to confirm a grant to KGsE of a franchise to serve customers within the corporate limits of that city. I) 4. On June 9, 1978 the Coffey County Rural Electric Cooperative Association, Inc., (hereafter Coffey County) filed an application for permission to intervene and protest of applications, and a request for hearing. In support of its application Cof fey County stated that it is a public utility and hoLos certificates of convenience and authority from the Commission to transact the business of an electric Fur-public utility in certain areas in the State of Kansas. I"I ther, that the application filed by KGEE requests the Com-mission to grant it certificated authority in areas already certificated to Coffey County and made exclusive territory pursuant to K.S.A. 1977.Supp. 66-1,170 et seq. and the agree-ment'of the parties by maps filed with the Commission. Coffey County objects to KGEE's application and alleges the granting of the application would adversely affect Coffey County, and would not be in the interest of the present and future electric customers in the territory involved and the intent of the Kansas legislature as set forth in the statute

                   ' cited above.

5. Based on the foregoing facts, the Commission finds that the application for permission to intervene and request for hearing should be granted in Docket No. 107,167-U. As Docket Nos. EL 16999 and 115,213-U relate to the same matters,

           .          all dockets should be hemniat one time.

IT IS, THEREFORE, BY THE COMMISSION ORDERED THAT: The application for permission to intervene and r'e-questing a hearing filed by the Coffey County Rural Electric Cooperative Association, Inc., be, and it hereby is, granted. D E8'". : r; .--

B.lo-31 Posa 1977 ety. l.67 INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE to, MEMORANDUM TO FILE oir e, June 19, 1978 SU4JECTs C Lyle Herriott called today and indicated the main reason he had not responded to any of my letters was that he didn't u,nderstand what the request wanted. Barney Ruddick joined our conversation and we told Mr Herriott we were interested in information regarding transformer size and age, conductor size, height and age of poles--ali norral information that would enable us to make a fair and reasonable offer to Coffey County REC for their facilities within the city of New Strawn. Mr Herriott said he thought that was premature since we, even though holding a franchise, did not have the right to serve New Strawn. He also said : hat they thought they had some rights to be there even in face of referendum vote and that he did not know whether or not they wanted to sell their system. O I told him we were trying to handle this on an expedient basis in order to provide the citizens of New Strawn with the service they had requested; that I did not think our request was premature but only an effort to reduce delays. l Mr Herriott again mentioned they might not want to sell the system. I told him if their feeling was that they did not want to sell their system to please send me a letter so indicating. Mr Herriott did say he would send me a letter indicating what information was readily available in line with my letters of request. He also stated he would expect reimbursement for the costs incurred to accumulate this information at which time I asked him to advise me of what information could be made available and what kind of costs he was talking about.

Dear Mr lierriott:

t Since we have not heard from you regarding the inforination about your equipment inside the city limits of New Strawn as mentioned in my letters of May 1. June 2, and June 16 and discussed on the telephone on. June 19, we must assume that Coffey County Rural Electric Cooperative Association Inc does not wish to sell its facilities. You mentioned this as a very distinct possibility in our telephone conversation. ' , Since this is the case, Kansas Gas and Electric Company, at the O appropriate time, will make its own arrangements for providing service to the customers who have requested service in New Strawn.

Dear Mr. Evans:

In response to your request for information concerning Coffey County Rural Electric's distribution facilities, services and meters utilized to provide electric utility service in and to New Strawn, Kansas, I would point-out that Coffey County Rural Electric is certificated by the Kansas Corporation Commission to transact the business of an electric public utility in the area and intends to continue to meet that responsibility. As you are aware, we have intervened into and lodged our protest to Kansas Gas & Electric's application for a certificate of convenience and j authority to transact the business of a public utility in the area, and to t extend its electric facilities. Kansas Gas & Electric, not having a right to serve the area, is in no position to offer to acquire Coffey County Rural Electric's physical facilities. cusT.& cor.w.

lack of interest in this matter. It was also stated that Helen Lee and Robert D. Holl could provide testimony which would indicate that they were unable to develop a mobile home park in New Strawn, Kansas, because of an inability to obtain adequate electric service.

3. Acknowledging the provision in the commission's Q

Rules of Practice and Procededure which does not permit deposition (K.A.R. 82-1-234), KGEE requested in the alter-native that an examiner be named for the purpose of taking Helen Lee and Robert D. Holl's testimony in Branson, Missouri.

4. Based on the foregoing, the cotanission will not permit depositions to be taken in this matter. K.A.R. 82-1-234 prohibits the use of deposition, and the Conuaission does not p' find it proper to deviate from its regulation in this matter.

Moreover, we find that it would be inappropriate to appoint an examiner for the purposa cf taking testimony. From KG6E's motion, it does not appear that the testimony of Helen Lee and Robert D. Holl would be germane to the proceedings in this docket. IT IS, THEREFORE, BY THE COMMISSION ORDERED that the motion herein be, and hereby is, denied. The Commission retaine jurisdiction over the parties and subject matter for the purpose of entering such further order or orders as it may deem necessary. Van Bebber, Chan.: Gray, Com.; Loux, Com.
