j 9 P n asking demanding questions about the future, the Eugene Water & Electric floard (EWEB)

Commissioners and management staff have addressed many issues. Improvements to uClity j

facilities have been completed. Potential resources to meet the future demand for power have been k

expl'ored. Comprehensive f'mancial planning is underway, guiding the utility in maintaining rate d 6 stability and excellent bond ratings.

Strategic, ongoing analysis of customer needs and utility services provides valuable infonnation for decision making. These efforts will help EWEll continue to achieve its mission of providing Excellent Service at Low Cost.

-In 1989...

  • EWEB completed its $25.5-million headquarters area improvement project which improved nearly all aspects of the utility's operations.

+ the Board examined and updated its goals to strengthen EWEll's commitment to customer service and financial and resource planning.

  • an Energy Management & Control System--one of two in Oregon-was brought on line, improving operation of the electric system and management of power supplies.

i

  • resource acquisition e(forts continued, with receipt of a federal license to install generation at the U.S.

q Army Corps of Engineers Dam at Blue River, with further development of conservation resources, and with the Smith Creek flydroelectric Project.

4

  • the new computerized General Ledger and Budget systems were installed, ptoviding managers with more up-to-date financial infonnation.
  • public involvement was emphasized and customer input was sought an numerous key issues, including y

.g conservation funding, rates and relicensing of EWEB's hydroelectric projects.

Smith Falls flydropower-will produce enough o

energy to meet about 3.5 percent of the annual w

electricity use by EWiill's customers.

Although the cost is higher than the rate EWEll currently pays for power from the llonnes ille Power Administration, the fixed price provides a long term advantage as costs for other resources continue to escalate. Addinonally. EWIill has the option to purchase the Smith Creek facihty in 1997, to f urther reduce project costs.

In 1989. EWEll receis ed a 50-year f ederal license to construct and operate new generation faciliues at the existing U.S Army Corps of Engmeers' Hood control dam on Blue Riser, about 40 nules east of Eugene. Oser the nest two years. EWEll will decide whether the project can be deseloped at costs competitive with other resource optior-

Energy Conservation EWEB has more than 14 years oiexperience in energy conservation. Nearly 24,000 Eugene homes have been weatherlied through the very successful residential program, saving enough power to serve the typical electric needs of over 5,(KK) new homes!

Customer support for EWEB's conservation programs was indicated in the results of a recent public opinion survey. Eighty percent of the respondents view ed EWEB's conservation programs as beneficial to the community, y

The customer research was conducted to help the EWEB Commissioners decide the level of conservation programs for 1990, since funding from the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) was I

L being sharply reduced. BPA had provided the large majority of funds for EWEB's conservation efforts since 1980. To remain responsive to the number of service requests by utility customers, the l

Commissioners decided to offset a portion of the reduced Bonneville assistance with EWEB funds.

[l EWEB is now expanding its energy efficiency programs for I

commercial and industrial businesses. The " Energy Smart Design" 1

\\

program for new commercial construction projects was introduced '

t-

EWEB's Generating Capability As a generating pubhc utihty,!!Wiill can use its low-cost power to mis with outside power purchases to keep customer rates low. E!Wiilrs NkKenzie River projects produced nearly 18 percent ot !!Wiill's 1989 power needs.

The Walterville hydroelectne project was built in 1911 to provide electncity for pumping w ater and to power the city 's street behts l'Wi!ll was fonned to manage the a

project. Today-nearly 80 years later-the project still prosides an important power supply for the conununity. I!WiiB's other hydroelectne projects on the NicKenzie River are the 60 year-old L.caburg tacihty and the 27-year-old Carmen-Smith and Trail findpe Iacihties.

l.caburg and Walterville together prm ide about eight percent of the utility 's power needs. ((Wiill staf f are currenti) engaged in a rigorous federal rehcensing process on these tw a NicKen/ie Rner hydroelectnc projects. [!WI!Il is comnutted to gaining new long-term hcenses f rom the I ederal linergy Regulatory Commiwion tiliRC)in 1;;

1993. In addition to protecting I!Wiill's power supply through relicensing. the utility will pursue cost ettective plans to improse the efficiency and output of the projects while also enhanemp other aspects of the nser.

Relicensing these projects requires addressing ditlerent-- % ometimes competing-customer view points. Niany customers are mterested m mamtaining the projects because the generation helps keep utihty rates low. Rec-eational users of the ns er w ant to ensure adequate rner flow f or boating and fishing actisities. To incorpoiate these siew s into the relicensmg process, l!Wi!B tonned a "N1cKenzie Network Group" of commumty citizens and representatnes of groups who benefit f rom the riser. The "NicKen/ie Netw ork Group" meets regularly w ith liWi!B staff to review the relicensmg issues. A bi monthly new sletter-W Acacic currento-n bemp dntributed to NicKen/ie R n er area residents and to members of recreational groups to maintam an open dialogue on riser issues.

Three ens ironmental studies-tocusing on fish migration and habitat, w ater quahty 4

These emplosees located and turned ot t the customers' w ater supply to allow the repair of trozen pipes. Employees also helped anothec l.200 customers w ho called with ques-tions about frozen valses, meters and pipes.

each day. An all time energy consumption level of 572 megawatts-nearly double the average load-r was set during the " Siberian Express.' Power w as m short supply in the Northwest, and EWEB's dispatchers and power schedulers responded to the increased demand for electricity quickly and efficiently. They maintamed constant contact with power producers-and maxinuzed operation of EWEB's ow n generating plants-to nsure an adequate supply for customer use.

And throughout it all. EWEB's warehouse, accountmg. communications and telephone sy stem employees also worked to help deliser the much-s alued customer sers ices.

The "Sibenan Express" w as just one dramatic example of how EWEB responds to customer needs.

Financial Plan Provides Guidelines As EWEll moves inm the 199Ws, a primary financial strategy will be to maintain working capital balances at lesch that are slightly higher than those existing at the end of 1989. EWEll cyvets to accomplish this by continuing a highly competitis e rate structure that allow s for modest annual increases. EWEll staff anticipates these rate increases will be smaller and more frequent than in the pau. Research show s these smaller rate increases are pieferred by most EWiill customers oser leu f requent, larger rate increases.

The lloard will adopt a strategic imancial plan in 1990. The plan will communicate the floard%

financial goals and pohcies and specify management practices for achieving those goah. The plan's policies will guidt EWEll management staf f in the formulation of budget, rate and financing proposah aimed al maintaining the utility's fmancial position.

The plant burns hogged fuel, which is wood w aste from area lumber mills, in 1989, steam heat sales brought in $1.7 million in resenue. The facility can also penerate electricity, and in 1989 produced 27,584 mWh,a s alue of 5810,(XK) to EWEll.

In 1989, EWEll investigated ways to reduce particulate emissions from the steam plant. Emissions are increased when the plant generates electricity in addition to its usual steam heating function.
