t 1 l I l l A Report From The PRESIDENT l

i
i f Our utility, during 1985, continued in the cycle of reduced activity both I

in terms of growth and construction, but this condition gives us the ft opportunity to fine tune the organization to meet the needs and expectations f of our customers both now and in the future.  !

I There are positive signs that our continuing efforts to maintain a utility that can adjust to this trend, while retaining our responsiveness to our customers, have been successful.

Despite the sluggish economic conditions in our service area, and for i that matter throughout much of the Midlands, we ended 1985 with net )

revenues totaling $9.8 million. l Retail and wholesale rate increases for the year were below the rate of '

inflation and this trend should continue in 1986 and beyond.

Weather, of course, plays an important role in our annual kilowatt-hour sales. Irrigation and air conditioning loads in the summer months account for a major portion of our energy sales and traditionally .luly and August are our peak usage months. Although the summer of 1985 was cooler  ;

than normal, it was also generally drier than normal. These conditions  !

resulted in a peak demand of 1,587 megawatts during the sununer of 1985, i which was slightly higher than the 1984 peak but still well below the record i peak system demand of 1,720 megawatts set in 1980.  !

Wholesale customers' load management systems for irrigation load [

have also had a significant impact on system demand with only modest  !

I impact on energy consumption.

An early winter cold spell that resulted in several record-breaking low  !

temperatures contributed to the highest November peak on record of 1,215 l megawatts. The December peak was 1,218 megawatts, which was 3 percent above the December,1984, peak but about 5.4 percent below the I record system winter peak of 1,288 megawatts set in December of 1983. i The sustained period of cold temperatures during November and j December were instrumental in improving the District's kilowatt-hour sales ,

and revenue condition for the year. [

In our continuing efforts to control expenses, which allows us to  !

maintain a more stable rate base, it was necessary to make some tough management decisions during the year.

Implemented during the year was a staff reduction in the Transmission ,

and Distribution Projects Division primarily due to lower than anticipated l

4 I

demand for power cnd energy cnd en cecompanying decline in the need for new transmission facilities. Factors responsible for the staff reduction include the cancellation of the MANDAN Project and cancellation or deferral of several other major projects. The revised 1985 and the 1986 construction budgets for the Electric System were significantly reduced.

In our 1984 Annual Report, we discussed the rationale behind our decision to cancel the MANDAN Project early in 1985. Although we believe that the concept of the MANDAN Project has merit, the Project's c:ncellation resulted in some immediate cost savings to our customers.

We continued our program of consolidating, where practical, certain local retail omees. Cost saving is an important consideration to omce consolidation, but we are also dedicated to maintaining reliable service to these communities and areas. Since 1983,13 omces have been closed and have been consolidated with other facilities. Implementation of our modern Customer Information System, which incorporates computerized billing, will enable us to continue our review of the need for certain retail billing omces.

Other programs are also being implemented with the intent of improving the emeiency of our utility.

Designed during 1985 and implemented in early 1986 is the new Peyroll/ Human Resources System (PHRSL The District's payroll system was developed about 20 years ago and did not have the flexibility nee &d to meet the changing governmental and management reporting needs. The Human Resources System was developed in 1979 but was not integrated with the payroll system.

The new PHRS will enable the District to meet its present and future needs for calculation of taxable wages and for governmental and management reporting. It will improve the emeiency of payroll processing with reduced risk of failure to meet payroll and associated reporting requirements. The PHRS is a foundation system which will provide improved information for other computerized accounting functions.

There is an ongoing effort to promote oft-peak use of electricity and control demand during periods of peak usage. A combined advertising and marketing program encourages consideration of electric heat - primarily th) heat pump- for both new construction and replacement of existing sy~tems in residential and commercial markets. Extensive research into the frasibility of a system-wide, summer load control program continues.

Emcient use of existing generation and transmission facilities will allow us to delay construction of new facilities to meet peak demand and results in lower costs for our customers.

f To develop and implement these programs and camcepts requires committed and dedicated employees. At NPPD we feel strongly that our people are our most important asset. A positive attitude and cooperative spirit are essential during periods of economic uncertainty.

The employees' continued support of senior management is essential if the District is to meet the present and future needs ofits customers. We have o collective responsibility to do everything we can to provide power and energy at a cost as low as practical. We must continue to be innovative in our efforts to reduce costs and increase sales. The net effect of our collective efforts will be a successful 1986 for the District. ,

Message From The CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD We have experienced a disappointing farm economy for several years, and these economic conditions have filtered to the businesses and industries in the small communities and retail centers that depend on the agricultural sector for their livelihood. Several Nebraska banks were closed during the year.

This utility's chartered territory primarily encumpasses rural Nebraska. Thus, it is important for this Board to make policy decisions with a full recognition of these economically uncertain times in an effort to maintain electric rates at as low a level as we can.

Agriculture's problems include declining farmland values and commodity prices, surpluses of grain, heavy debt loads and shrinking export markets. Few economists see any national economic surge to sweep the Midland's economy forward, but some economists contend that farmers have examined and come to grips with reality and are realigning and adjusting to operating in the current environment.

The American farmer is of hardy stock. Despite the foreclosures and bankruptcies that have attracted national attention, rural America will survive. In the meantime, we in the Midlands must concentrate our efforts on hastening the cycle of an improved economy. Wishing it to be will not sulfice.

Nebras.ka electric energy rates continue to be among the lowest in the nation. This utility is among the leaders in efTorts to expand the state's economy by attracting non-agriculture-related industry. We have an adequate supply of electricity available which will delay the rate shock associated with new construction when the economy does rebound.

Our air is pure, our land fertile, and our work ethic is widely acclaimed.

We must take advantoge of our virtues to improve our economic condition. This Board, in concert with management, has been able to keep electric rates for our customers competitive with the cost of other available energy while maintaining an aggressive and dedicated organization.

We enthusiastically invite you to hok us over - both our human elements and our financial condition - through the pages of this report. We feel we have a solid foundation on which to enter the second half of the decade of the 80s.

Pursuant to enabling state legislation passal in 1984, titles of District i senior management personnel and officers of the lloard of Directors have )

been changed to more closely match titles used in private industry, l corporations and investor-owned utilities. I The title of General Afanager has been changed to President. The  ;

Assistant General Managers' titles have been changed to Vice Presidents. ,

The title of President of the lloard of Directors has been changed to '

Chairman of the Board. The lloard's two Vice Presidents' titles were L l

changed to Vice Chairman.

[

These titles should reduce the confusion as to corporate responsibility . ,

for individuals and organizations outside of Nebraska who have nent to I establish contact within the District. The title changes do not alter the l responsibilities of the positions affected.  !

  • To the Board of Directors Nebraska Public Power District:

We have examined the balance sheets of the Electric System of Nebraska Public Power L)istrict (a publi,: corporation and political sulxlivision of the State of Nebraska) as of December 31,1985 and 1988, and the related statements of revenues and expen.ses and accumulated net revenues and changes in financial position for the years then ended. We have aim examinni the supplemental schedule of the calculation of the debt service ratio for the years ended December 31,1985 and 19&l. Our examinations were made in acconiance with generally accepted auditing standants and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considerni necessary in the circumstances. The financial statements of the Electric System of Nebraska Public Power District for the year ended December 31,1983, were examinal by other auditors, whose report, dated March 2,1984, expressal an unqualified opinion on those statements. In our opinion, the financial statements referral tu above present fairly the financial position of the Electric System of Nebraska Public Power District as of December 31,1985 and 1984, and the results of its operations and changes in its financia' position for the years then ended, and the supplemental schedule of the calculation of the debt service ratio for the years ended December 31,1985 and 1984, present fairly the information set forth therein all in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

Our examinations were made in accordance with generally acceptal auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procalures as we consider d necessary in the circumstances. The special-purpose financial statements of the Power Supply System of Nebraska Public Power District for the year endal December 31,1983, were examinal by other auditors, whose report, datal Alarch 2,1984, expressed an unqualified opinion on those special-purpose statements. The special-purpose financial statements referral to above have been prepared for the purpose of complying with, and on the basis of, accounting requirements specified in the Power Supply System llevenue Bond llesolution adopted by the District on September 29,1972, as supplemented, securing the revenue bonds issued thereunder.

Nebraska Public Power District NUCLEAR FACILITY Report ofIndependent Public Accountants To the Board of Directors Nebraska Public Power District: We have examined the special-purpose statements of assets and liabilities of the Nuclear Facility of Nebraska Public Power District (a public corporation and p>litical subdivision of the State of Nebraska) as of December 31,1985 and 1984, and the related special purpose statements ofievenues and costs for the years then ended. Our examinations were made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. The special-purpose financial statements of the Nuclear Facility of Nebraska Public Power District for the year ended December 31,1983, were examined by other auditors, whose rep >rt, dated March 2,1984, expressed an unqualified opinion on those special purpose statements. The special-purpose financial statements referred to above have been prepared for the purpose of complying with, and on the basis of, accounting requirements specified in the Nuclear Facility Revenue Ikind Resolution adopted by the District on August 22,1968, as supplemented, securing the revenue bonds issued thereunder. As described in Note 1@, these requirements differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the special-purpose financial statements are not intended to present and do not present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and changes in financial position of the Nuclear Facility of Nebraska Public Power District in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In our opinien, however, the aforementioned special-purpose financial statements of the Nuclear Facility of Nebraska Public Power District are presented fairly pursuant to the requirements of the Nuclear Facility Revenue Bond Resolution described in Note 1@, applied in a consistent manner.
