-3 PVNGS ER-OL 1.2 OTHER OBJECTIVES The sole objective of PVNGS is to provide capacity for power II prodUC t3.0I1~1.2-1 I Qo PVNGS ER-OL 1.3 CONSE UENCES OF DELAY The load forecasts presented in table l.l-1 indicate that the combined annual peak demands of the PVNGS participants will increase an additional 6567 megawatts between 1980 and 1986.During this period the combined annual peak will be growing at an average rate of 1094 megawatts per year.To reliably meet this demand, the participants will need to obtain an additional 7385 megawatts of new installed resources between 1980 and 1986.The PVNGS units are an important part of these needed new resources.

The participants are responsible for meeting the growing electric needs of their customers, and by virtue of their franchises, are required by law to do so.Failure to provide power as needed would have serious social, environmental and economic effects on the entire area served by the participants.

If PVNGS-1,2,&3 are not constructed and do not begin commercial operation as scheduled in May 1983, May 1984, and May 1986, respectively, the participants will experience consequences of delay with respect, to the adequacy, reliability and cost.of their power supplies.The degree of the consequences will depend largely on whether the delays are short-or long-term, and on how much time the participants have to prepare for the delays.Lead times for constructing alternate types of genera-tion are three years for combustion turbine units, four and one-half years for combined cycle units and seven and one-half years for coal-fired steam units.This does not, include regu-latory review times for environmental or project approval.The effects of delays of one, two and three years in the com-mercial operation of the project on the reserve margins of the participants are shown in table 1.3-l.For example, infor-;..ation in table 1.3-1 shows that the PVNGS participants reserve Table 1.3-1 MARGIN COMPARISON BETWEEN PARTICIPANTS RESERVE MARGIN WITH AND WITHOUT PVNGS-l, 2&3 DELAYED (Sheet 1 of 2)(a)1.1.1 Load characteristic 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 , 1987 Adjusted annual peak demand (AAPD)25346 26166 26961 28079 29164 30300 PVNGS-1,263 On Schedule 1.1.2 Power supply (MW)Participant capability less PVNGS 1, 2 6 3 PVNGS 1, 2 6 3 capacity Participant capability 1.1.3 Reserve capacity (MW)Reserve Percent margin 30300 30300 4954 19.5 30844 1270 32114 5948 22.7 31125 2540 33665 6704 24.9 31619 2540 34159 6080 21.7 31920 3810 35730.6566 22.5 32945 3810 36755 6455 21.3 PVNGS-1,2a3 Dela ed One Year 1.1.2 Power supply (MW)Participant capability less PVNGS 1, 2 6 3 PVNGS 1, 2 a 3 capacity Participant capability 30300 30844 30300 30844 31125 1270 32395 31619 2540 34159 31920 2540 34460 32945 3810 36755 1.1.3 Reserve capacity (MW)Reserve Percent margin 4954 19.5 4678 17.9 5434 20.2 6080 21.7 a.Data adjusted to reflect commercial operation date for PVNGS Unit 1 of May 1983.5296 18.2 6455 21.3 n 0 IQ C R n tr)

A delay in the units will increase the probability that one or more of the participants will be unable to meet its load requirements during this period.Also, the energy requirements expected to be met by the nuclear unit'ill have to be met by other sources.This would mean burning more oil and/or coil resources, possibly resulting in adverse environme'ntal effects and higher costs.Moreover, since fuel oil is scarce, and since it is expected to remain in short supply, prudent planning dictates that it be conserved as much as possible.Delay of the nuclear units will work against the conservation of this resource.Operating combustion turbine or combined cycle units as baseload units to replace nuclear energy is likely to present additional reliability problems, since this type of unit.is not designed for baseload operation.

If the delays are known several years in advance, other planned resources may be installed early.It may thus be possible to avoid the reliability problem stated previously.

However, the problems related to environmental effect, costs, and fuel conservation will still apply.'%Wile it may be possible for the'participants to make some short-or long-term purchases to partially cover the delay of nuclear units, it is not likely that all participants will be able to make sufficient purchases to make up all of the delayed nuclear capacity.Neighboring utilities may be experiencing their own delay problems in installation of generation facili-ties, and therefore may not have excess power to sell to the participants.

Another factor in this regard is the nature of the, power supply in the a eas served by the participants.

(0 1.3-4 PVNGS ER-OL CONSEQUENCES OF DELAY The participants generally rely on a high percentage of resources that are remote from their load areas, with power carried to the load areas over EHV transmission systems.There is a limited number of interconnections between the partici-pants'ervice areas and surrounding systems.Even assuming that the large amounts of power that may be needed are avail-,.able for purchase, the limited number of interconnections and high use of the EHV tranmission system will make.it difficult for those large amounts of power to be transmitted to the participants'ervice areas.Delays in the'construction of PVNGS generating facilities will have the following adverse effects on systems planning and operation.

A.B.C.Longer Lead Times-Consistent delays in construction lengthen the lead time required for generation plan-ning.This reduces the flexibility and adaptability of incorporating new technology or changes in load fore-casts into the planning process.Decreased System Reliability

-Delays will result in lower reserve margins that decrease system reliability and thereby cause more frequent service interruptions.

Additional Costs-The delay of a generating facility may require the temporary substitution of a more costly alternative with'the possibility of a greater environ-mental impact.Delays also result in additional costs for interest during construction of the planned facility.1.3-5 t~

'of the sales forecast , using-the.

following methodology.

b.The sales forecast is compo'sed"of.reasonable estimates of'customer'rowth and changes'n" customer use patterns.A.CUSTOMER GROWTH'ESIDENTIAL CUSTOMER ADDITIONS~,'ew'esidential'lectric'customers equate directly-to new households which",are rel'ated to net in-PVNGS ER-OL RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMER ADDITIONS CONT'D 2.3.Although a component; of population increase, the net natural increase of births over deaths does not contribute to new household increase.It has, however, a bearing.on the trend of the number of persons per household.

This data is provided by the Arizona State Health Department.

The net in-migration increase is the total population increase less the netted natural increase.This statistic is reviewed by current estimates from the Republic and Gazette-"Inside Phoenix Story" and the Arizona Department, of Economic Security.The in-migrating households are already formed and represent immediate utility customers.

The average size of these households is estimated from Republic and Gazette survey data, U.S.Department of Commerce Census data and tempered by using national averages as upper limits.The young emerging adult, (18 year old pool)is probably the most dynamic factor in the household formation rate.While this group is approximately one-half the size of the in-migration increase, because they are in the early stages of family formation, they tend to form smaller households.

Further, their movement into and out of the housing market is extremely sensitive to economic conditions.

This concept of household formations is relatively new and is being implemented by a special computer analysis of existing survey data.1B-2 PVNGS ER-OL RESIDENTIAL'CUSTOMER ADDITIONS CONT'D 5.6.7.Non labor force refers to the in-migration sector that live in Arizona as retired, students or for health reasons.These groups have lower persons per household count.Basic data comes from the Republic and Ga'zette"Inside Phoenix Story" and census data.The labor force group are those who move to Arizona as business transfers, military personnel, on government assignment or those who move here because employment possibilities are better.In 1975, it is estimated that 29%of the newcomers moved here because of employment, 23%had jobs and 6%were seeking jobs.This information is found in the Republic and Gazette"Inside Phoenix Story" and Census of Population.

Total new household formations therefore are attributable to emerging adults and net in-migrating familiies.

Vacancy rates of houses and apartments and unemployment are indicators of current young adult household formation rates.Any great change in these factors make estimating additions to new household formations more difficult.

8.Some households reside in master metered facilities and lose their identity as residential customers.

The estimate for these households is based on the total number of residential electric meters in the state and Naricopa County compared to the total households, with the assumption that all households have electric energy.1B-3 PVNGS ER-OL 9.The remaining households are identified as the total residential electric customer increase for the state.10.With a total new residential electric customers estimated, a ratio of customers by APS service area is determined.

M.R.'West and Company provides each month a summary of residential building permits by service area in Maricopa County.Service area growth in the remainder of the state is estimated from Arizona Department of Economic Security for individual county growth.On a statewide basis APS has approximately

.40%of the households.

COMMERCIAL CUSTOMER ADDITIONS I Commercial customer additions are based'n historic ratios of commercial customers~

as)l related to residential customers.

This'rend has been steady over past years, but duping the past, few years the number of commercial customers has been coming down in numbers, while the relative size has been increasing.

National trends are also used to temper projection limits.INDUSTRIAL CUSTOMER ADDITIONS Industrial customer additions are based both on historic ratios to commercial and residential customers.

The large additions are well known PVNGS ER-OL INDUSTRIAL CUSTOMER ADDITIONS CONT'D in advance, and these additions are also the basis to foretell local household additions.

Industrial growth both nationally and locally must be reviewed since this growth supplies the employment which decides the rate of household growth.IRRIGATION CUSTOMER ADDITIONS Irrigation customer additions are in a reality added irrigation pumps.Their annual distri-bution is highly seasonal, and during the past years have tended to increase in size because of lowered water table.B.USE/CUSTOMER RESIDENTIAL 2.3.Extensive records of use/customer by local area are maintained on a monthly basis, and it is these'ecords that are reviewed to determine if there is an unusual.use pattern.Extensive heating and cooling degree day data by local area is maintained and averaged for 27 years to determine probable normal weather.The historical use per customer is normalized based on this average.Computer analysis is used to determine trends of normalized customer use.Use per appliance is constantly reviewed in conjunction with load research surveys con-ducted by APS.Also these results are compared to national surveys conducted PVNGS.ER-OL 5.by EEI.APS also cooperated in joint load research'projects with other utilities so that valid use can be determined by monthly and annual use.C Projected appliance saturation is extended for major applian'ces.

The basis for these pro-jections are APS load surveys, Republic and Gazette"Inside Phoenix Story," and census data relating to appliance ownership.

COMMERCIAL Commercial sales loads have shown a consistent, trendable relationship with residential sales.Use per commercial customer is calculated by pro-jecting commercial sales based on this relationship and averaging over commercial customers.

INDUSTRIAL Since 45 customers represent about 75%of the industrial electrical energy used, these customers are identified separately and forecast on specific information for each customer.The remaining small industrial customers have well defined growth patterns, and are trended tempered by short run economic projections.

II.LOAD FORECAST The load forecast is derived from the sales forecast using appropriate load factors.It consists of the following elements;A.THE BASIC LOAD The basic load is derived from the basic portion of the sales forecast, by class of service.Class 1B-6 PVNGS ER-OL LOAD'FORECAST CON'D of service load factors are estimated from load research data, customer records', and other field survey results.Load factors are projected based on estimated trends of appliance mix and use patterns.B.LARGE IDENTIFIED CUSTOMERS Certain large customers reguiring significant amounts of power are monitored and their demands projected based on first hand information.

SUMMARY

Introduction This Power System load forecast consists of a disaggregated electric sales forecast for the residential sector, commercial sector, industrial sector, and other sector (street and highway lighting and intra-Departmental sales)for the'City of Los Angeles, total electric sales to customers in the Owens Valley and the net energy for load and peak and minimum demands for the Power System.The period covered in this forecast is 1979 through 2000.The following table summarizes the differences in the forecast annual net energy for load and peak demand between this forecast and the March 1977 and January 1978 Power System load forecasts for 1985 and 1995.Forecast Ma 1979 vs.1985 Peak Demand 1985 NEL 1995 Peak Demand 1995 NEL arc 1977 5150 25520 6890 35740 anuary ay 1978 1979 4772 4706 23733 22988 6325 5728 32749 28329 arc 1977-444 (7o 3%)-2532 (-9.9%)-1162 (-16.9%)-7411 (-20.7%)anuary 1978-66 (-1.4%)-745 (-3.l%%u)-597 (-9.4%)-4420 (-13.5%%u)

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C Section 1-Annual Electricit Sales Total electricity sales to ultimate customers are projected to grow at an average annual rate of 2.4 percent from 1978 through 1985 and 2.1 percent from 1985 through 2000.The growth rate for the 22-year period from 1978 through 2000 is expected to be 2.2 percent.The forecast growth rates are significantly less than they were prior to 1973 but are only slightly below the annual growth rate of sales since 1975.From 1960 through 1972, the year prior to the"energy crisis", the annual growth rate for total sales,was 7.2 percent.Total sales grew by 2.0 in 1973 and then declined by 14.3 percent in 1974.While caused in part by the impacts of the'Arab Oil Embargo and the recession during 1974, this sharp decline was primarily the result of the Mandatory Curtailment Ordinance approved by the Los Angeles City Council that was in effect from December 1973 to May 1974.This ordinance required a decrease in electricity consumption from the previous year by residential and industrial customers of 10 percent and by commercial customers of 20 percent.In 1975, sales rebounded from the curtailment period and grew by 6.5 percent as many customers eased some of the harsh conservation measures that had been utilized during the previous year.However, many of the conservation measures implemented were retained.The Department has estimated that 1475 gigawatt-hours of energy have been saved annually by existing customers since 1974 as a result of conservation practices initiated during that period.Since 1975, total sales to ultimate customers have grown at an annual rate of 3.09 percent.The lower estimated future growth of electricity as compared to the his'torical trend is primarily attributable to three factors.These are: 1)Population growth-The rate of growth of the population of Los Angeles since 1970 and the growth rate forecast through 2000 are much less than the growth prior to 1970.According to the United States Census, the population of Los Angeles grew from 2,479,015 persons in 1960 to 2,811,801 persons in 1970, representing an average annual growth rate of 1.3 percent.The Los Angeles City Planning Department has estimated that the population in 1978 was 2,936,850, equivalent to an annual increase of 0.5 percent since 1970.The current population forecast by'he Planning Department estimates that the population will increase at an average rate of 0.4 percent to 3,191,100 persons by 2000.

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C 2)Conservation

-Conservation efforts are expected to have a considerable impact on the future growth of electricity consumption in Los Angeles.As previously stated, the Department has estimated that 1475 gigawatt-hours have been saved annually since 1974 as a result of conservation practices initiated'during the mandatory curtailment period.In addition, through Department-initiated and State-mandated programs conservation savings are expected to increase annually reaching 3562 gigawatt-hours or 11.2 percent of total annual sales by 2000.3)Price of electricity

-From 1960 through 1970, the real price of electricity to customers in Los Angeles declined at an average annual rate of 3.5 percen't.However, since 1970 it has increased at an annual-rate of 9.8 percent and more than doubled in eight years.In the future, the nominal price of electricity is expected to grow at the same rate as inflation.

A summary of the historical and projected electricity consumption by customer class for the years 1960 through 2000 is given in Table 1 and plotted in Figure 1.Commercial Sector Electricity sales to customers in the commercial sector grew by 2.5 percent in 1978 to 8142 million kilowatt-hours and accounted for 47 percent of total electricity sales in the City of Los Angeles.Commercial sales are forecast to grow at an average annual rate of 3.6 percent through 1980 and then to decline to an annual growth rate of 2.4 percent through 2000.The lower growth rate after 1980 results from an anticipated slowing of the general economy, an expected increase in the price of electricity and a continued effort to reach the maximum potential levels of energy savings through conservation.

From 1960 through 1973, electrici.ty sales to commercial customers grew at an average annual rate of 7.8 percent.In 1974 commercial sales decreased by 23.3 percent in response to two stimuli.The first was the conscientious effort made by many commercial customers to conserve electricity in accordance with the City's Mandatory Curtailment Ordinance that was in effect during the first several months of the year.The second was the reclassification of many commercial customers to the industrial sector precipitated by the strict definition of a commercial or 1C-2 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C increased at an annual rate of 1.6 percent.Sales grew very slowly in 1972 and 1973, 1.3 percent and 1.4 percent, respectively, and then decreased by 10.8 percent in 1974 as a result of the Mandatory Curtailment Ordinance.

This was followed by an annual growth rate of 5.7 percent in 1975 and an average annual growth rate of 3.0 percent from 1975 through 1978.Although the lower growth in electricity consumption since 1971 can largely be attributed to the curtailment-imposed restrictions, other factors have also had a significant effect.The average annual growth rate of residential customers since 1971 has been nearly one-half of its value during the previous ll years, 0.9 percent compared to 1.6 percent.As a result the impact of new residential customers on total residential sales has been much less than in the past.Another factor was the rapid increase in the saturation of frost-free refrigerators and air conditioning that occurred prior to 1971.Air conditioning saturation increased from slightly over 9.5 percent in 1960 to 34.6 percent in 1971, more than a threefold increase.Likewise, the saturation of frost-free refrigerators, which use approximately twice as much electricity as standard refrigerators, increased dramatically during the 1960's and are currently found in 70 percent of the homes in Los Angeles.Such dramatic increases in saturation cannot continue.The historical and forecast values for the number of residential customers, total annual residential consumption and average annual consumption per residential customer for the years 1960 through 2000 are given in Table 2.The forecast values of the economic and demographic variables used in the residential forecast are listed in Table 3.The average annual kilowatt-.hour consumption for each of the 23 appliances modeled in the residential forecast are tabulated in Table 4.The first number listed for each appliance is the consumption for 1977.The.following numbers are the annual consumption for each year through 2000.The annual saturations of each appliance are given in TabJ.e 5, and the annual kilowatt-hour consumption for all appliances in each appliance category is given in Table 6.Sales to Customers in the Owens Valle Electricity sales to customers in the Owens Valley grew at an average annual rate of 6.7 percent from 1960 through 1967., However, beginning in 1968, several mining operations were discontinued and sales dropped 21 percent from the previous year.Since 1968, sales have grown at an annual rate of about 1.4 percent.Sales are forecast to grow at an average rate of 1.3 percent through 2000.1C-4

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C In 1978, electricity sales in the Owens Valley accounted for 0.34 percent of the total Power System sales to ultimate customers.

This percentage has declined steadily over the historical period since 1960'when-sales to" the, Ovens Valley accounted for 0.56 percent of'otal'sales-and is forecast to continue to decline in the future, reaching 0.28 percent';,in

...2000.Net Ener for Load NEL The NEL is the total energy requirement for the Power System.It is comprised of total sales to ultimate cus'tomers and the electrical operating losses of the Power System.A summary of the historical and projected values are shown in Table 8.A listing of the historical and projected annual loadfactors for the Power System is also included.Sales to Others Electricity sales to others consist of intradepartmental sales to the Water System and of sales for street and highway lighting.Sales to each of these customer groups were forecast.and then combined to obtain an estimate of future sales to others.The historical and forecast data from 1960 through 2000,are.'

summarized in Table 7.Intradepartmental sales to the Water System.have fluctuated since 1960 but have not shown a growth trend.The fluctuations have been primarily caused by varying weather conditions with dry years requiring a greater pumping of-'ground-water and a consequent increase in electricity usage.For example, since 1960 the average annual-consumption by the Water'ystem has been 94 gigawatt-hours.

However, in 1976 and 1977, two consecutive years of severe drought, electricity consumption was 115 gigawatt-hours and 118 gigawatt-hours, respectively.

On the other hand, consumption in 1978, one of the wettest"years on record for Los Angeles, was only 87 gigawatt-hours.

Annual electricity sales to the Water System are forecast to remain constant through the year 2000 at the historical average of 94 gigawatt-hours.

I Electricity sales for street and highway, lighting grew at an average annual rate of 3.9 percent from 1960 through 1978 and are expected to show continued growth through 2000, although at a lesser rate of about 2.0 percent annually.The two most significant factors contributing to the declining growth rate are (1)the use of sodium-vapor lamps in place of less:efficient types such as mercury vapor'lamps an'd (2)a deere'ase in'the'ate of new installation.

This is expected to continue because of the increasing use of air conditioning and State-promulgated regulations restricting the use of electric space heating in new construction.

In 1978 the summer peak demand grew by 9.7 percent to 4144 megawatts during abnormally hot weather in the last week of September.

The winter peak, influenced primarily by seasonal-related lighting-loads, grew by 1.5 percent in 1978 to 3044 megawatts.

The 1978 base demand was 1265 megawatts, 1.0 percent less than in 1977.The historical and forecast annual summer, winter and base demands are listed in Table 9 and plotted in Figure 2.Summer Peak Demand The summer peak demand has normally occurred in the early afternoon of the hottest summer working day.The most significant factor affecting the summer peak demand is the residential air conditioning load.In compliance with the State'mandated appliance efficiency standards, manufacturers are now required to market more efficient residential air conditioning units which will lessen the impact of new units on the suaxner demand.Additional conservation measures are being implemented in the commercial and industrial sectors, as well as the residential sector, further slowing the growth of the summer peak demand from the historical trend.From 1960 through 1973, the summer peak demand grew at an average annual rate of 6.8 percent.It decreased by 4.9 percent in 1974 in response to measures implemented during the period when the Mandatory Curtailment Ordinance was in effect and grew at an average annual rate of 4.9 percent from 1975 through 1978.It is forecast to grow at an annual rate of 2.6 percent from 1979 through 1985 and 1.9 percent from 1985 through 2000.The annual growth rate from 1979 through 2000 is expected to be 2.'1 percent.The summer peak demand forecast is based on a summer maximum effective temperature of 91.85o F.The effective temperature is a function of the daily maximum relative humidity and dry-bulb temperature.

Since humidity affectsan individual's level of comfort at a given dry-bulb temperature and the efficiency of air conditioning units, the effective temperature is considered a more accurate indicator of the cooling requirements than the dry-bulb temperature.

1C-18 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C 19 The uncertainty in the summer peak demand forecast is in part caused by the uncertainty of the maximum effective temperature.

However, temperature uncertainty can be accounted for in a probabilistic manner.The expected one-in-ten-year summer high and low maximum effective temperatures are 95.04o F.'and 88.66o F., respectively.

This means that for any 10-year period the highest annual maximum effective temperature is'expected to equal 95.04o F., and the lowest maximum effective annual temperature is expected to equal 88.66o F.The expected one-in-twenty-year summer high and low maximum effective temperatures are 95.89o F.and 87.81 F., respectively.

These ,temperature ranges are based on historical data from 1960 through 1978.Table 10 lists the forecast summer peak demands for these ,temperature values.These peak demands represent the range over which the suaxner peak demand can be expected to fluctuate because of variations in the temperature.

Minter Peak Demand Histhrically, the winter peak demand has occurred in December during the early evening hours.The higher peak demand in December is attributable to the increased demand from Christmas-related activities.

The winter peak demand grew by 1.5 percent'in 1978 to 3044 megawatts.

It is forecast to grow from 1978 through 1985 at an average annual rate of 2.3 percent and from 1985 through 2000 at an annual rate of 1.8 percent.The annual growth rate from 1978 through 2000 is projected to be 2.0 percent.From 1960 through 1972, the winter peak demand grew at an average annual rate of 5.9 percent.The peak demand decreased:in 1973 by 10.9 percent and decreased in 1974 by an additional 3.5 percent.From 1975 through 1978 the winter peak demand has grown at an annual rate of 1.6 percent.The decrease in growth rate over the long-range historical trend is mostly attributable to increased conservation and a lower level of Christmas decorative lighting.Base Demand The base demand is the minimum demand that occurs on the Power System during the year.It typically occurs during the early morning hours of a Sunday in March, April or May.The base demand is forecast to grow at an annual rate of 3.4 percent from 1978 through 1985 and 2.6 percent from 1985 through 2000.The annual growth rate from 1978 through 2000 is estimated to be 2.9 percent.1C-19 PVNGS ERAL APPENDIX 1C 20 FIGURE Rc HISTORICAL AND PROJECTED SUMMER,'WINTER, AND BASE DEMANDS FOR THE LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER 10B8-2888 M I-5888 (3 UJ t 4888 UJ n 8888 pO r e+r gfr~~pe 9'0BS 10B5 1078 1075 10S8 10S5 1908 1095 2888 YEAR 1C-20

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C 23 The base demand has grown rapidly over the historical period.From 1960 through 1972, it grew at an average annual growth rate of 9.2 percent.This is a significantly greater growth rate than for either the summer or winter peak demands.The higher growth rate has been caused, in part, by the increase of large, high load factor customers which have a greater percentage impact on the base demand than the peak demand.In 1973 the base demand occurred in December after the Mandatory Curtailment Ordinance had become effective.

Since 1974 the demand has occurred at the expected time of year and has grown at an average annual rate of 3.9 percent through 1978.lc-23 PVNGS ER-OI APPENDIX, 1C-24-Section 3-Growth Factors Los Angeles is a maturing city and, as such, no longer expects the rapid growth which characterized the past 100 years.A relatively small amount of vacant land remains in the City.This land, which is primarily in the San Fernando Valley, is being developed as residential, industrial and commercial properties, but the impact of this new development will be minor.The growth which Los Angeles expects to experi.ence over the next 25 years is that of intensification o'f commercial and residential activity and maintenance of existing industrial activities.

Specifically, the following growth is anticipated:

Population

-A modest growth rate (0.4 percent annually), resulting in a population of 3,191,100 in 2000.This represents development of vacant residential land and continued replacement of low-density housing with higher density housing.Dwelling units-The number of multifamily units will continue to increase while single-family units decline.In addition, the number of persons per dwelling unit will continue to fall.The result will be a larger increase in dwelling units than population (0.6 percent annually).

The total number of dwelling units in 2000 is forecast to be 1,289,023.

Industry-New industrial property will be developed in the San Fernando Valley, but these increases will be offset in part by industry leaving the older sections of the City.The anticipated growth in industrial power usage will be small.Current employment projections show a decline in industrial employment, but this seems to represent increases in productivity as much as loss of industry and, therefore, a decline in energy use is not expected.Commerce-Commercial activity will grow in Los Angeles as a result of two factors--increased demand for services and Los Angeles'ncreased importance as a financial center.Downtown, the Wilshire Corridor and Ventura Boulevard will continue to have low-density commercial structures replaced by high-density structures.

New development will also occur in the North and West San Fernando Valley.Commercial employment is expected to grow 19.6 percent between 1970-1990, as a result of a larger increase in service employment and smaller increases in other components such as retail sales.1C-24 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C 25 Section 4-Forecastin Methodolo The Department's load forecast is developed in two stages.First, total annual sales for each customer sector and total Power System losses are forecast.These energy values are then summed to obtain an estimate of the future NEL, the total energy requirement for the Power System.Then, the NEL is used as an input to the forecasting models for the annual summer and winter maximum demands and the annual minimum demand.Ener Re uirements Forecast Annual electricity sales to residential customers were fo'recast with an end-use'model.Future saturations of 23 appliances were calculated based on per capita income, the average price of electricity to residential customers, persons per household, and the marginal installation rate of certain appliances in new households.

For any given year, these saturations were multiplied by the product of the average annual consumption of the given appliance and the total number of residential customers to obtain an estimate of the total annual energy consumption for each type of residential appliance.

The annual energy consumption for each appliance was then summed to yield an estimate of total residential energy consumption for the given year.An estimate of the effect of conservation efforts was included in the model by decreasing the estimated annual electricity consumption for the given appliance.

The effects of measures such as residential building standards and'ppliance efficiency standards were thus included.Commercial customers are classified as those customers whose major use of electricity is to provide a service or sale of a product without materially changing the product.Industrial customers are those whose primary use of electricity is to process materials from one form to another.The forecast of sales to these customers was developed from an econometric model based on historical relationships that existed from 1960 through 1978.The major factors included in the model were an indicator of the regional economy represented by the Gross State Product and the average cost of electricity.

An allowance was made to account for a change in the relationship between the Gross State Product and commercial and industrial electricity sales since the time of the"energy crisis" in 1973 and 1974.Sales to others is comprised of electricity sales for street and highway lighting and for pumping by the Mater System.The future consumption of electricity for street and highway lighting is based on the historical relationship that existed from 1960 through 1978 between the number of lighting installations and their total electricity consumption.

An allowance was made for the 1C-25 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C-26-use of more efficient high-prpssure sodium-vapor installations at all new sites.Electricity sales to the Water System are expected to remain'onstant in the future at a level equal to the average annual consumption for the period 1960 through 1978.Although usage by the Water System will fluctuate in the future as it has in the past with dry years necessitating higher levels of pumping, the average level of usage is not expected to increase.The forecast of electricity sales to customers in the Owens Valley is based on the historical relationship with total sales to customers in the City of Los Angeles during the period 1960 through 1978.As a result, the impacts of conservation are included in the Owens Valley sales forecast.Power System transmission and distribution losses were 10.0 percent in 1978 and have fluctuated between 7.0 and 11.0 percent since 1960.These losses are forecast to be 9.5 percent through 1984 and 10.0 percent thereafter.

The percentage losses are expected to increase in the future because of the Department's participation in out-of-state generating projects which can be expected to cause a resultant increase in transmission losses because of longer transmission lines.Peak Demand Forecast The summer peak demand model used by the Department calculates the demand as the sum of a weather-sensitive component and a nonweather-sensitive component.

The net energy for load is used to determine the level of the latter component.

The weather-sensitive component is calculated as a function of the level of residential air conditioning load and a composite temperature based on the maximum effective temperatures on the day of the peak and the preceding day.In this way, the effects of heat buildup over a period of two days are included in the determination of the demand.All relationships were based on actual observations for the period 1965 through 1978.The reduction in the peak demand from the State-mandated Appliance Efficiency Standards'for frost-free refrigerators and residential air conditioning units was calculated separately and subtracted from the above-calculated demand to obtain the forecast peak demand.The parameters used to develop the estimate of the summer peak demand are listed in Table ll.WD and NWD are the weather-sensitive component and the nonweather-sensitive component, respectively.

That is equal to the average kilowatt contribution to the demand per residential air conditioner for each degree by which the effective temperature exceeds 74 degrees.It is'assumed to be constant in the future at its value in 1978.The reduction factor represents the estimated amount by which the appliance efficiency requirements will reduce the peak demand.The estimated peak demand is<he calculated peak demand for normal weather conditions.

The numbers show that the 1C-26 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1C 27 weather-sensitive component has grown from 21 percent of the summer peak demand in 1965 to 30 percent in 1978 and is expected to be 34 percent by 2000.IL The winter peak demand is considered to be the maximum demand for December.It was estimated as a function of the net energy for load and the maximum temperature on the day of the peak.An allowance was made for the effects of the Mandatory'Curtailment Ordinance on the winter peak since thy Christmas-related activiti'es which contributed heavily to the'peak demand prior to 1973 have been sharply reduced as a result of conservation procedures initiated during the time period in which the Ordinance was.in effect.1C-27 TABLE 11'UMMER PEAK DE)C(m DERIVATIOH FOR THE LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AED POWER RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERS A/C YEAR L.A.ONLY SATURATION THETA(l)WD(2)

This reduction is currently estimated to be 1475 million kilowatt-hours or an 8-percent reduction in current electricity sales.I In the residential sector, the major impact from nonprice conservation is forecast to come from State-mandated standards.

For example, current building standards set minimum insulation requirements for new homes and recently adopted residential appliance efficiency standards set maximum electricity consumption for various sizes of refrigerators and air conditioners.

In addition, electric resistance heating can no longer be installed in new residences unless it can be shown that its life-cycle cost is less than that for'ther energy sources such as natural gas or solar.This regulation effectively bans any new electric resistance heating.The Department has also initiated programs to point out to its customers conservation measures that may be implemented to reduce electricity consumption.

These measures include ceiling retrofit insulation, thermostat adjustments, solar space conditioning and water heating, and utility outreach programs.Reductions for the impacts of nonprice conservation for the commercial sector and the industrial sector fall into two categories:

1)allowances for the impacts of State-mandated conservation standards (Titles 20, 24 and 25)and 2)Department-initiated programs.The State programs are aimed at reducing electricity consumption in new buildings, and the Department programs estimate the potential reduction of electricity consumption in existing buildings.

METHODOLOGY

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1D EL PASO ELECTRIC COMPANY LOAD FORECASTING METHODOLOGY Load forecasts are formulated after the summer peak of each current or"initiating" year, and are produced in two phases.The first phase yields a revised forecast of the remaining months of the current year and a'rojection for the next con-secutive year stated in terms of"demand" and"functional billing" models.The second phase yields a 10-year monthly and total annual load forecast.Peak demand, energy and load factor are forecasted simultaneously.

In general terms, a synthesis of the following method is used: 1.Extrapolation of data points from simple curve-fitting and exponential smoothing programs;2;Construction of sales projections using local economic indicators; 3.Analysis of data relevant to future planned expansions obtained from major customers through sales personnel; 4.Large scale econometric studies by external consulting sources;5.Judgement.

This given, the starting point for any normal forecast is an extrapolation from historic data points derived from naive time PVNGS ER-.OL Form series constructs.

Typical"least squares" curve fitting statistics using a 20-year,"raw" data sample are as follows: Index GWHRS MW 1.Linear 2.Exponential Y=A+B X Y=AG X 3.Power Y=AX B.980712.987331.992309.971844.991305.992361 The index shown for curve No.3 is relatively high and extra-polations of GWHR levels using this simple model appear accurate having an average actual error of+3.5%.Inclusion of adjust-ments for years having extra weekend days and one extra day in February produce an even higher index of 0.99487 for an identi-cal time period.System sales and peak demand have also been analyzed using third-order exponential smoothing with a 120-month data base.This program was designed for use by electric utility forecasters.(b)Gompertz Curves have also been constr'ucted from peak demand data.Both methods'produce good correlations with actual sales and demand levels but, Gompertz's-Curves exhibit high growth rates well beyond the 1990's while exponential smoothing programs"track" somewhat slow'ly in the initial years of the forecast.These limitations given, projections from both methods still give useable input within the range of the forecast.Extensive studies also have been performed in analysis of the effect of temperature on peak demand.Temperature-Load models are not used in a"predictive" sense--they are used instead to provide probabilistic input to peak forecasts.

'a~b.An index of 0.8 is considered"good" while an index of 1.0 indicates a perfect fit."General Exponential Smoothing Model for Electric Utility Forecasting", Contributed Program, IBM Corporation, 1130-19.4.001.

PVNGS ER-OL Local economic indicators have been used to test, or check pro-jected GWHR sales levels.Typical indicators are disposable income, population, retail sales, etc.These variables are initially tested for correlation with GWHR sales.Highly correlated variables may also be tested for maximum correlation with discrete sequential time lag.Simple regression models have been constructed relating GWHRS to four or six economic and stochastic inputs.These are"first, generation" models, in that economic inputs are not.necessarily projected by infinite regressions and forecasts are not constructed from individual customer class projections.

In terms of external sources, El Paso Electric Company retained the firm"National Economic Research Associates" (NERA)to con-struct a medium range forecast.using an extensive economic (c)model."In-house" projections for average growth are slightly lower than the median forecast generated by the NERA model.The NERA model, consequently, has not modified recent projections extensively.

A finished forecast is produced by statistically and graphically weighing predicted values from all models.Arriving at a com-posite range and central tendency with probabilistic temperature input.The final output is analyzed by empirically derived test relations and statistics.

In general terms, total sales and peak demand have been rela-tively well behaved parameters.

Steady periods of constant growth between inflection points have been in evidence since the early 1900's.For example, peak MW growth trends have been identified as follows: Period Rate of Growth 1940-1945 1946-1959 1960-1974 7.59%11.25%9.34%t c.Presented 12 August 1977 to the Texas Public Utility Commission.

1D-3 PVNGS ER-OL The most relevant period reflecting the current"character" of load is 1957 to the current year.Average values given below are significant:

Parameter Average Value or Average Rate of Growth Standard GWHR Sales Peak MW Load Factor (Average)9.06%/Year 8.12%/Year 59.54%4.3 4.2 2.4 Load factor is a relatively stable parameter as indicated above and has been used as a connective in constructing composite fore-casts of GWHR sales and peak demand.Long term analysis reveals a slowly increasing trend in load factor which is not in evidence during short time intervals.

The growth of the system is currently projected to decrease from past levels.The degree and extent of the future changes as projected in new forecasts is gauged to some degree by the past performance of the system.This is especially significant when viewed in terms of the coincident behavior of, demand and sales on an incremental basis.

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1E PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY OF NEW MEXICO FORECASTING METHODOLOGY t

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX lE PNM FORECASTING METHODOLOGY Public Service Company of New Mexico's (PNM)forecast evolves from a comprehensive analytical process that includes many groups within the Company.The long-range forecast (4 to 20 years in the, future)is developed using econometric techniques and other state of the art forecasting methods, such as end-use modeling for residential sales.The PNM pro-jections take into account future economic activity, changing energy prices and conservation impacts, and demographic growth within the service territory.

Each sales class and several components of the same classes are analyzed separately using econometric models to identify long-range impacts of various economic scenarios.

Special attention is given to the forecast of sales to uranium and coal mining customers in western New Mexico;this sales component, is expected to be PNM's most rapidly growing sales class over the next, decade.Annual system peak demands are forecasted by applying load factors to each identifiable sales component.

These load factors were obtained from PNM's electric load survey program.Special emphasis was placed on identification of changing load patterns that will result from a sharply increased penetration of electric space and water heating and from additional large mining loads.The PNM forecast of power and energy needs of its partial requirements wholesale customers is based on information pro-vided to PNM by the customers and PNM's judgement as to the accuracy of the customer, information.

PVNGS ER-OZ APPENDIX 1F SAKT RIVER PROJECT ZOAD FORECASTING METHODO?OGY

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1F SRP LOAD FORECASTING METHODOLOGY The 20 year load forecast is utilized in a number of long and short-range planning activities at Salt River Project.It provides the basis for the development of future electric facility plans and for projecting future revenues and expenses for use in financial planning activities.

The methodology employed in the development of the forecast is a hybrid of statistically based econometric techniques and empirical methods.The statistical techniques are used to pro-ject future requirements for aggregated classes of customers for which adequate historical data, appropriately defined, exists.Using twelve years of historical'ime series data, iterative multi-variate regression analyses are performed on various combinations of the independent variables.

Upon the identification of the most"accurate" structure of variables the coefficients, the resultant equations are employed to fore-cast future trends.The empirical methods are used primarily to project the future requirements of large industrial and mining customers.

Because of the composition of the SRP customer mix and the climatological characteristics of the service territory, the major variables influencing future demand relate to service area population, weather, and price of electricity.

Population is the most significant of these variables because of its prime importance in the derivation of SRP customers.

POPULATION AND CUSTOMERS The population projections which underlie the forecast were developed by the State of Arizona Department of Economic Security (DES).Before adopting the population forecasting PVNGS ER-OL" model employed by the DES, the Salt, River Project carefully reviewed the mod'el.in relation to its structure and assump-tions.As a result of this review, it has been determined that Salt River Project along with other utilities and State agencies will use the DES projections for planning purposes:.

It has been found that there is a close historical correlation between the number of SRP's residential customers and the population of Maricopa County.There are two steps involved in translating county population to SRP customers.

First,, multi-variate regression analysis is used with the county projection to derive residential customers.

Historical and forecast data of the residential class is then examined for.-~its relationship to the Commerical and Small.Industrial.".

Customers and Other Customers.

Disaggregation'f SRP customers into these.categories is necessary for providing a'learer picture of the makeup of SRP customers as well as their.potential energy needs.PEAK DEMAND Utilizing the new customer data and current projections of'he price of electricity, the forecasting methodo'logy was exercised to determine peak demand and energy sales..For forecasting purposes, the major aggregation of customers, is included.in one category which comprises 80%of the system peak demand.This category, termed"Aggregated-Customer.

Demand", includes.Residential, Commercial and Small Industrial, Munici-palities, Street Lights and Interdepartmental.

Although-thege appears to be lack of homogeneity among these customer classes, it has been statistically demonstrated that their collective contribution to system peak correlates very well E.to a common set of exogenous variables.(Year-end residential customers, weather, residential price of electricity,)

1F-2 PVNGS ER-OL The remaining classes included in the Peak Demand forecast are the Large Industrial and Mining components, the Southeast Area Agricultural Pumping and system losses.The Large Industrial 6 Mining segment is empirically derived and based upon a process of customer interviews moderated by.independent judgment.The Southeast area pumping demand has been fairly constant over the past several years and is forecast at a constant load in the future.System losses which include substation transformer losses and 230 KV, 115 KV and 69 KV transmission losses are based upon historical data and are estimated to be 2.5%of the total peak demand.SYSTEM KWH SALES The forecasts of energy sales are developed in a slightly dif-ferent manner than Peak Demand, in that a forecast is made for each revenue class rather than for aggregates of customers.

Both the Residential Class and the Commercial and Small Indus-trial Class are derived using statistical methods described earlier.The method employed generates a usage per year-end customer figure for both classes.This figure is then multi-plied by the total year-end customers to arrive at the total energy sales for a particular class.It should be noted that the equations for energy sales attach a greater significance to the price of electricity than is evidenced in the demand equations.

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1G SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY FORECASTING METHODOLOGY

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1G SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY FORECASTING METHODOLOGY I.Past and Future Growth Trends Annual Electricit Sales Edison net kilowatthour sales (company energy, which excludes contractual sales)grew at an average annual rate of 8.2%between 1960 and 1973..Following a decline of 5.1%in 1974, sales increased by 1%in 1975, 4.9%in 1976 , 3.4%in 1977 and 3.2%in 1978 , reach'.ng 55,637 gigawatthours.

Sales are (a)forecast to rise at an annual rate of 3.4%for the next two decades, reaching 79,820 gigawatthours in 1988, and 109,210 gigawatthours in 1998.The fore-cast growth rate is less than one-half of the pre-1974 historical rate, reflecting a slower expansion of economic activity and population; voluntary conservation by Edison's customers due to higher electricity prices and SCE's conservation programs;mandatory conservation imposed by the State and Federal governments; and the Conservation Voltage Regulation Load Management Program.1 4 The forecast of net Edison kilowatthour sales is the sum of separate forecasts for the customer sectors of Residential, Agricultural, Commercial, Industrial, Other Public Authority and Resale.t Growth rates include energy sales from Nevada Powe'r Company to resale cities of Anaheim and Riverside; 310, 201, 435, 340, 380 and 380 million kilowatthours in 1976 through 1981, respectively, based on December, 1978 system forecast.

PVNGS ER-OL A comparison of the growth rates of kilowatt-hour sales by customer sector forecasted for the 1977-1998 period and recorded during the period 1960-1973 is provided in the following table: Avera e Annual Com ound Growth Rates Historical 1960-1973 0 Forecast 1978-1998 0 Residential Sales Commercial Sales Industrial Sales Other Public Authority Sales Resale Total Sales 9.9 10.5 6.8 9.0 8.7 8.2 2.2 5.0 3.2 2.6 0(a)4(a)The reduced growth rate of residential sales is the result of voluntary conservation in response to rising real prices of electricity and mandated con-servation resulting from State and Federal mandated appliance efficiency standards and building, standards, and reductions due to Conservation Voltage Regulation.

As in the past, the commercial sector is forecast to exhibit higher growth than the other customer sectors due primarily to the service oriented nature of the California economy.During the 1960 to 1973 period, the 6.8%per year growth in kilowatthour sales to the industrial sector reflected a rapidly expanding Cali-fornia economy and a period of declining real prices of electricity.

Since the forecast is for a slower expansion of economic activity and rising real energy prices, industrial kilowatthour sales are forecast to increase at only about half the historical rate.1G-2 PVNGS ER-OL Summer and Winter Peak Loads Southern California Edison is a summer peaking system as a result of air conditioning load.In 1978, the Edison'Net Main System peak demand was 11,997 mega-watts, giving a 3-year increase of 1804 MW (17.7%)over the 1975 peak demand of 10,193 megawatts.

This increase was a result of recovery in economic growth, an increase of 209,900 residential customers, and an increase in the system saturation rate of air condi-tioners from 39.5%to 44.5%.Net Main Syst: em peak demand is forecast to grow at a rate of 3.1%between 1978 and 1998, compared to 8.1%during the 1960-1973 period.This forecast shows the impacts of higher electricity prices, Edison's conservation and load management activities, Federal and State mandated energy conservation programs and slower economic growth.Weather sensitive demand, which is that component of the peak demand which responds to temperatures, was 33%of the 1978 peak demand, compared to 9%in 1962.This growth in the weather.demand component reflects the increasing number of air conditioners installed throughout the system and an increase in the average size of the air conditioning units.However, the growth of weather demand as a percent of total demand is forecast to stabilize as air conditioner efficiencies and residential insulation improves due to State mandates, as air conditioner saturation rates slow and as Edison's load management programs are implemented.

The remaining part of the peak demand, called non-weather sensitive demand, grew at an average annual rate of 7.5%between 1960 and 1973, and is 1G-3 PVNGS ER-OL forecast to grow 3.4%annually between 1977 and 1998.The non-weather sensitive demand forecast incorpor-ates the impact of energy prices and conservation programs.By 1985, the impact of the state mandated'standards on appliance efficiencies and buildings will be to reduce peak demand by 1520 megawatts, while SCE's load management programs"will reduce it by an additional 529 megawatts.

The winter peak demand, which in 1976 was 85%of the summer peak demand, is forecast to be a constant 83.6%of the summer peak after the introduction of Load Management Programs.The average growth rate is forecast to be 3.3%between 1978 and 1998.This compares to an annual growth rate of 6.7%between 1960 and 1973.3.Demo ra hic Pro'ection'and Household Formation The population and household forecast assumes a replacement level of fertility (2.11 births per woman in her lifetime, also.called Series E birth rate)and migration to California of 150,000 people per year.Population within the SCE service terri-tory is forecast to grow at an annual rate of 1.3%between 1978 and 1998.Edison's household, forecast is based on a projection of 2.72 persons per household in 1980, decreasing to 2.59 in 1990.4.Economic Pro ection Real Gross State Product (RGSP)is forecast to increase at an annual rate of 3.3%between 1978 and I 1998.This compares to a historical expansion of 4.2%per year between 1960 and 1973.Slower economic growth in the future is the result of lower popula-PVNGS ER-OL tion growth and smaller productivity gains.Real income per customer is forecast to rise at an annual rate of 1.6%between 1977 and 1998.This compares to a historical growth of 1.7%per year between'1960 and 1973.Income per customer increases more rapidly in the future as more women enter the labor force.Also, relatively higher employment growth in labor oriented industries indicates that a higher percentage of RGSP will go to income, as opposed to capital, in.the future.Thus, income will increase more rapidly than RGSP in the future.Urban development, commercial and industrial expan-sion are expected to increase in the future at rates commensurate with the economic and population forecast.The basic premise of the methodology is that past reac-tions of Edison's customers to changes in certain casual factors serve as the most objective and reliable guide to the way they will behave in the future.The consumption of electricity is derived from the use of electrical equipment and appliances and is influenced by the price of electricity, the price of alternative forms of energy, the customer's income, and the level of economic activity.A statistical model is used to project the influences to change in each of these determinants.

A number of policy measures are currently being implemented or are being discussed for future implementa-tion, for example, State and Federal mandated energy conservation standards.

Historical experience does not provide a means to determine the impact of these measures.SCE estimates the impact of these policy measures by PVNGS ER-OL using information from engineering analysis and field experiments.

The final forecast is then adjusted for the impacts of the policy measures.Flow charts of the kilo-watthour sales and peak demand forecasting methodologies are given in figures 1G-1 and 1G-2.Po ulation and Customer Forecastin Methodolo A cohort component model is used to forecast the SCE area population.

An age-sex cohort is defined as a group of persons of the same sex, born in a specific year or within a specific span of years.The cohorts are tracked through their lifetimes based on the assumed rates of migration, fertility, and mortality appropriate to each cohort for each year of the forecast period.The data requirements of the model include a benchmark population (1970 Census in this case)distributed by age and sex, and projected migration, fertility, and mortality rates.SCE forecasts the number of Residential customers by applying a population per customer ratio to the population forecast for its service area (excluding

~the population in areas served by resale accounts).

This ratio is a function of the California population per household.

The number of Commercial and Other Public Authority customers are forecast as a function of the number of residential customers.

The number of Industrial customers is forecast based on the historical time trend.The number of Agricultural customers is forecast to be 25,000 because the number of agricultural customers in the 1965-1978 time period fluctuated around 25,000.The number of Resale customers is forecast to remain constant.1G-6 PVNGS ER-OL Kilowatthour Sales Forecastin Methodolo The kilowatthour sales forecasting methodology relates the level of electricity consumption to the price of electricity, the price of natural gas, population, economic activity, voluntary and manda-tory conservation and Load Management Programs impacting energy sales.Energy prices and the eco-nomic variables are expressed in real terms, that is, adjusted for the effect of inflation.

Residential

-Total Residential kilowatthour sales are forecast as the product of the number of Resi-dential customers and the average per customer kilo-watthour usage of electric energy in each year.The number of Residential customers is forecast by applying age-specific household headship rates to the age-specific California population forecast and then applying the resulting population per house-hold ratio to the SCE area population.

Average kilowatthour usage per Residential customer is forecast using a combination of end-use analysis and econometric techniques.

In the end-use analysis, usage has been forecast utilizing analyses of 17 types of major residential appliances.

For each major residential appliance category, two variables are projected to determine annual elec-tricity consumption by that.appliance category.The first variable used is the annual amount of energy consumed per appliance, also called Unit, Energy Consumption (UEC).A significant change in UEC's of several appliances is presumed to come from the federal and state appliance efficiency standards.

The UEC's are forecast for each of the impacted fP 1G-7 PVNGS ER-OL appliances as a weighted average of UEC's for pre-standard and post-standard vintage appliances.

The weights are the relative proportions of the vintages determined from the sales rates bf new appliances and the attrition rates in the stock of existing appliances.

Projections of the effects of decreas-ing family size, increasing real income and changing attitudes towards traditional household functions are factored into the analysis.The second variable is the percentage of customers owning an appliance, which is defined to be the saturation rate.Several different methods were used for forecasting saturation rates, including both cross-section analysis and time-series analysis.The forecast utilized results from both methods.Historical saturation data is obtained from biennial company appliance saturation surveys.Causal vari-ables include personal income per household, price of electricity, price of gas, and gas availability.

The impacts of certain factors such as building standards or mandatory restrictions on the installa-tion of electric space and water heaters are esti-mated and factored into the saturation forecast.The product of UEC's and saturation rates;determines the average annual kilowatthour consumption per appliance.

The annual energy consumption per appli-ance is summed over the entire appliance category to obtain Residential kilowatthour sales forecast.The impact.of Conservation Voltage Regulation is deducted from the total forecast.The overall reasonableness of the end-use analysis was validated using a single equation econometric technique.

Average Residential usage is forecast based on its relationship with the average price of 1G-8 PVNGS ER-OL electricity to Residential customers, the average price of natural gas to Residential customers, income per customer, and the average Residential usage in the previous years.The inclusion of last year'usage in the forecasting relationship accounts for the durability of the electrical appliances and delays in adjustments by households to changes in income or energy prices.The relationship of the average Residential usage with the above variables is based on the data for the period 1950 to 1975.Adjustments are made to remove the significant vari-ations in the recorded average Residential usage caused by weather fluctuations.

The role of real I income per customer in the forecasting relationship is to account for the average customer's ability to buy new and larger appliances and larger homes, with an increase in real income.Savings from mandatory conservation measures and load management practices are estimated from end-use analysis and are deducted from residential energy sales.Mandatory conservation measures and load management practices considered include the following:

a~b.Insukati'on standards of R-19 ceiling and R-11 walls for new residential dwellings.

California Energy Commission (CEC)appliance efficiency standards for refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, space heaters, and water heaters.ci Energy efficiency improvement goals for a large number of household appliances--established by the former FEA (currently the Department; of Energy)in the Federal Register of July 15, 1977.1G-9 II PVNGS ER-OL d.Conservation Voltage Regulation Load Management, efforts designed to reduce peak demand require-ments and concurrent energy sales.Commercial

-The Commercial customers, by.definition, use electricity primarily to render services or facilitate the exchange or sale of goods without material change in form or nature.These customers include wholesale and retail establishments, office buildings, and the like.The commercial kilowatthour sales forecast is based on its relationship with the price of electricity to commercial customers, the price of natural gas to commercial customers, Real Gross State Product, and the commercial sales in the previous year.Data for the 1950 to 1977 period were used to derive the forecasting relationship.

Real Gross State Product is used in the relationship because it is a measure of business activity, which determines the level of Californians'ncome and spending.The impact of conservation is included in the forecast through the use,of energy prices to determine voluntary conservation and by deducting the mandatory conservation estimated in a separate analy-sis of the impact of non-residential building standards.

The impact of Edison's Conservation Voltage Reduction Load Management Program on Commer-.cial energy sales is also included.Industrial

-The Industrial customers use electricity primarily for processing materials from one form into another.The industrial kilowatthour sales is fore-cast based on its relationship with the price of electricity to industrial customers, the price of natural gas to industrial customers, Real Gross State Product, and the sales in the previous year.1G-10 PVNGS ER-OL Data for the 1950 to 1977 period were used to derive the forecasting relationship.

Industrial customers'n the Edison service territory are a diversified group of'manufacturers and raw materials producers who serve the entire state.Therefore, the use of Real Gross State Product as an aggregate measure of economic activity is appropriate to represent the demand for the products of SCE's industrial customers.

The impact of conservation is included in the forecast through the use of energy prices in the forecasting relationship.

The reduc-tion in industrial Kilowatt sales from Edison's Con-servation Voltage Regulation Program is also included.Other Public Authorit OPA-Two components of OPA kilowatthour sales, street lighting and other OPA sales are forecast and'then added.Other OPA kilo-watthour sales are forecast based on their relation-ship with the price of electricity to OPA customers, real personal income, and sales in the previous year.Data for the 1961 to 1977 period were used to derive the forecasting relationship.

Street lighting energy sales are forecast as a function of residential

, customers, as the number of residential customers grows, the need for additional street lighting will grow.Energy savings resulting from state mandated non-residential building standards are estimated independently and deducted from the forecast.The sales impact of Edison's Conservation Voltage Regula-.tion and high efficiency street light conversion pro-grams are also included.~11-'k'1 1 forecast in the long-run at a constant 1050 gigawatt-hours per year.Pumping loads for irrigation PVNGS ER-OL constitute a substantial portion of Agricultural kilowatthour sales.The annual average'of the agricultural kilowatthour sales during the 1950-1978 time period was approximately 1100 gigawatt-hours.The 50 GWH reduction is a result of imple-menation of Edison-sponsored conservation programs.Resale-Resale sales consist of electrical energy sold to other private and public electric utilities on a wholesale basis for distribution purposes.The Resale sales forecast is based on the relationships between the customer sector sales of the Resale sector and the corresponding customer sector sales of Edison.As a result, the Resale sales forecast takes into account the impact of higher energy prices, (i.e., voluntary conservation) mandated conservation measures, and Load Management Programs identified as impacting energy sales (Conservation Voltage Regulation) since the customer sector sales forecasts of Edison include these impacts.Peak Demand Methodolo The two components of the summer peak demand (Weather Demand and Non-Weather Sensitive Demand)are forecast separately and then summed to obtain the forecast.The weather demand is forecast as a function of the following variables:

a.Maximum temperature on the hottest day of the summer at nine weather stations.The daily temperatures are converted to a three-day weighted moving average to capture the effect of.heat build-up.The peak demand is expected to occur on a weekday in summer when this lagged temperature reaches a maximum, 1G-12 PVNGS ER-OL b.Saturation of residential and commercial air conditioners.

c.Total number of residential and commercial customers.

d.Population distribution in each of nine weather areas.The variety of topography and climatic conditions in the SCE service area requires'the use of a separate weather station to represent each weather area.Previous studies have iden-tified nine weather areas which are represented by the following weather stations: Pomona, Palm Springs, Long Beach, Fontana, Corona, Los Angeles Civic Center, Burbank, Santa Ana, and Santa Barbara.e.The sensitivity to temperatures is expressed in temperature per of the average air conditioner above 75F.This sensitivity kilowatts per degree increase in air conditioner unit.A forecasting model has~been developed which combines forecasts of the above variables to yield a forecast of the weather demand.The second component of peak demand, non-weather sensitive.demand (NWD), is forecast using a relation-ship based on Edison kilowatthour sales between 1960 and 1977.This relationship is assumed to hold in the future, and by inserting the forecast values of kilowatthour sales (exclusive of Conservation Voltage Regulation) into the equation, it yields the forecast of NWD.The amount of peak demand reductions as a result of mandated standards and load management (including Conservation Voltage Regulation) are sep-arately estimated and subtracted from the forecast.1G-13 PVNGS ER-OL The contribution to peak demand by customer class is.not forecast.One further addition to the peak demand forecast is the inclusion of the Blythe peak demand for 1981 and thereafter, concurrent with Blythe's integration into the SCE Net Main System..The final peak demand forecast is calculated by summing weather demand, NWD, and Blythe and deducting the impact of load management and mandatory conserva-tion.Winter peak demand after 1982 is forecast as a constant ratio of the Summer-Peak.

While wa feel certain the conservation efforts and progxsms will reduce the electric consumption pcr customer, overall energy demands are anticipated to increase because of the population growth rate in our area.Please accept our apology for the delay in getting this information to you.It was necessitated by, our desire to provide you with'ho most accurate information available at this time.Very truly yours, Robert 8.jfnag'arketing Manager RSH!gc Attachments PVNGS ER-OL APPENDXX 1H ARIZONA PUBLIC SERVICE COYiPANY ENERGY USE REDUCTION MEASURES Prepared for the Federal Poster Commission of the United States pursuant to Order No.496, Docket No.RN-74-7, issued November 29.1973 Phoenix, Arizona.December 21, 1973 1H-2 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H i This report outlines the pri=edures and steps Arizona Public Service Company has undertaken and will undertake to effect reductions, voluntarily and involuntarily, in the consumption of electric power and energy internally and by ultimate consumers.

EFFICIENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT For the information and education of employees and customers relative to the reduction in energy use, APS has adopted an Efficient Energy Management Policy (See Exhibit A).INTERNAL REDUCTION MEASURES To effect.energy use reduction in APS offices and other company facilities, executive management has ordered that the following measures be taken, under the responsibility of the Property Services Manager: 1.Thermostats are to be set at 68'his winter unless there are operating or other reasons requiring a change from this setting.2.Interior and exterior lights are to be turned off at the close of work, except for safety or security lighting.3.Exterior display signs are to be turned off except when light is necessary for identification purposes.4.Interior lighting levels are to be maintained to meet adequate work standards only.CONSUMER REDUCTION MEASURES For some time Arizona Public Service Company has been recommending definite steps that consumers can take to use energy more efficiently and reduce their use.Media advertising, news releases, bill enclosures, brochures and a company speakers bureau have been utilized.In addition, APS personnel on a regular basis have been making personal calls on-1-1H-3 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H customers to advise them on methods n" implementing these recomnendations and to assist them in reducing nonessential uses.Customer requests, for more specific information regarding the more efficient use and r eduction of energy are honored by personal calls.In November 1973 a new and complete consumer education booklet entitled"Your Guide to Wise Energy Management" was produced and is being distributed to consumer s (See Exhibit 0).Some of these recomnendations by APS for energy conservation in homes and businesses include: 1.Set thermostat teper atures in the lower limits of the comfort zone with record>ended levels not to exceed 68'or heating (but not to cause activication of cooling systems)and not lower than 80'or cooling.2.Replace air filters regularly.

3.Kave insulation and weatherstripping checked for-adequacy.

4.Keep drapes and shades closed on the sunny side of the house in the summer to reduce solar gain.Reverse in the winter and keep drapes and shades closed on cloudy days and at night to reduce heat loss.5.Set water heater thermostat no higher than 140'.Where possible in commercial and industrial establishments set thermostat for 110'or washroom use.G.Use dishwashers, clothes washors<<nd dryors only with full'oads.

7.Use lighting and other energy applications only where neces-sary.Comnercial and industrial establishments should utilize more efficient fluorescent, mercury vapor, etc.light sources;reduce lighting in non-business areas, such-2-1H-4 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H as lobbies and hallways;and reduce lighting levels during non-business hours to minimum levels required for safety'nd security purposes.8.Mhen possible, shift energy uses to hours prior to 9:00 a.m.or after 9:00 p.m.each day.ELECTRIC LOAD CURTAILMENT During the early months of 1972 APS experienced periods of extended curtailment or shutdowns of one or more of its three wholly owned electric generating units at the Four Corners Plant aggregating 575 YN nameplate capacity due to breakdowns or defects in components of the air pollution control equipment.

Because of this, on May 2, 1972 APS filed with the Arizona Corporation Commission an application for establishment of rules, procedures and guidelines to be followed by APS in the event of interruption or curtailment of electric service due to bulk power supply interruptions'ccordingly, after a hear'ing on the matter, the Corporation Commission issued an Order, dated May 16, 1972, Docket No.U-1345, Decision No.42097 adopting Electric Curtailment Guidelines (See Exhibit C).The present gas and oil supply situation could create conditions on Arizona Public Service Company's system and the systems of all other electric distributors in Arizona where the power supply could be in-sufficient to carry the load during peak periods.Accordingly, the Arizona Corporation Coiw>ission issued an Order dated November 19, 1973 calling a meeting with all electric utility distributors in Arizona to discuss form-ulation of a General Order relating to electrical service priorities in the event of shortages or outages.In answer to this Order, at a meeting of the electrical distributors with the Conmission on December 10, 1973.-3-1H-5 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H APS presented to the Commission a Statement sumnarizing the energy situa-tion and proposing that curtailment and conservation procedures be established through a four-step program (See Exhibit 0).Further meetings, Comnission action and possible legislative action in regard to electrical conservation, curtailment and priorities are anticipated.

4 1H-6 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H EXHIBIT A EFFICIENT ENERGY MANAGEHENT

-" A POLICY 1.Because Arizona Public Service Company recognizes that reliance on electric and gas energy is so basic to the overall welfare of our state and the communities we serve, particularly in protecting our economy and preserving the quality of life that all of us enjoy, va have been consistently recommending a course of efficient~encr man~a emend to all of our castomers.

2.Efficient energy management will be accomplished through two funda-mental approaches:

~voluntnr methods of using energy based on thought-ful and wise use of all the energy applications at our disposal consis-tent with conscientious judgment of needs and requirements, and/or or fuel shortages to'insure equitable treatment and distribution in meetrng the energy needs and requirements of all thc people.3.APS will continue to make available, through every.information and education device, ways to accomplish thc voluntary goals of efficient energy management objectives.(The company may not, legally, decide what energy needs are necessary or required for any customer or group or class of customers.)

4.In the matter of appropriate legislative or governmental action, APS will co-operate to thc lggllc:st with I<;gal ly cinu titutcd authoritics to provide information at its disposal for purposes of devising equitable procedures aimed at efficient energy management';

if this becomes necessary.

8.Never place a lamp near the thermo-stat.Its heat will ause a higher read-ing than the average temperature of the room and will cause your air con-ditioner to cool more than necessary.

o.Use the exhaust fan over the range while cooking so that heat from the range will not add to your air condi-tioner load.But don't leave it on longer than you have ta iix Save"moisture-producing" activities for cool times of day.such as carly morning or night.Mopping, dish-washing.laundry and bathing put moisture in the air, increasing the humidity which makes you uncom-fortable in the summer.it.Use the bathroom exhaust fan to take away moisture during and right after bathing.Turn o/f after it has done its job.is.Be sure your clothes dryer is vented to the outside.13.Leave your air conditioner on at night to retain your comfon level.This is more economical than having to re-claim it every day.t6.Choose a Iight~lored roof for your new home or when you re-rooF.It reflects hot sunlight, helping prevent heat build.up in your attic.ts.Place window air conditioning units on tl>>north or shady side of the house to reduce their work loads.i6.Clean the bafllcs on window units, but be careful not to damage the cvapo.rator coils or fins.ty.If you have central air conditioning with an outdoor condenser, keep leaves, grass and other obstacks away from it so they won't interfere with its operation.

i8.Place awnings or plant shrubs and deciduous trees on the sunny side of your home.They'l cool areas exposed to the sun and prevent overexenion of your air conditioning unit.i9.Repair leaking hot water faucets.One drop per second adds up to zoo gallons per month.This is water you paid to hat.zo.Don't leave refrigerator and freez-er doors open longer than necessary.

5 i.Keep freezers full;check to make sure door scab arc tight.If loated outdoors, pbce freezer in 5 cool shaded space.za.Use dishwatI>>rs, clothes washed and dryers only when you have accumu-lated full loads.53.Use your range for all lies worth.Plan o~ish meab, prcparc meals usmg the direct heat of thc broiler...and each time you use the oven, let it do the complete meal-meat, vegetable and dessert.Energy ellkiency is in your hands.By puning these suggestions and others like them to use, you can get the most e/lieient operation'froin'our home appliances and equipment.

Your use of appliances can agcct your cecrgy consumption Laundry Equipment When ckthes washers and drycrs are in an air conditioned space, they present an added kad to the air conditioning system.for each kad of ckthcs you wash and dry, it requires more than onc ton of air condiYioning to re-move the heat and moisture generated by this opcfatkn It is best to wash and dry ckthes during the carly morning hours when your air condi-tioning system works most eflkiently.(The hotter it gets, the more energy your cooling system uses and the kss comfort it produces.)

lt is abo important that ckthes drycrs be vented to the outside, so that most of the heat and moisture will be ejected to the outdoors.Automat/'c Dishwashers Automatic dishwashers.

depending on their size, type and capacity, will add between i/3 and i/5 ton to thc home'5 air conditfoning requirements for ach normal dishwashing cyde.Dishwashers shouM be used in tl>>carly morning or bte cvcning hourL Kitchen&baust Fan The kitchen exhaust fan should be oper'ated only wiien necessary to remove oooking heat, odors and steam.Running the fan at other times means you'e removing air that you'e already paid to cool or h<<at, and you must then pay to cool or heat rcplaccment air.Thc kitchen exhaust fan can add one nm of kad each hour of operation to your air conditioning system in summer, and can exhaust as much as'5/3 of the total capacity of your l>>sting system in winter.Bathroom Exhaust Fan Ukewise, your bathroom exhaust Fan can add to your cooling costs in summer and your I>>sting costs in winter.Use it to take away moisture during and right after bathing, then turn it o/f.If the fan is wired to your bathroom light switch, have it put on a separate switch.Portable Heaters Poitabk heaters often present problems, mainly beause many of them are not sized properly for thc work load and they may run connantly without shuning o/f.They are in-tended primarily for supplemental heat re-quirements, but arc often found in use where their capability does not meet the rcquircment for heat.Heattng and Cooltng-Tbe mayor factors tn energy management One of the most important items.'to check in using energy efhciently is your total air condi-tioning/heating system.For the most elfective use of cncrgy, the system must be properly installed, adequately sized to handle thc job, 1H-13 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H and in h-i operating condition.

A'ystesn that once met your needs may no longer be adequate.Or it msy need service and maintenance.

The following tips will help you get thc most out of your heating/cooling system.AdesIuaey of tbe unit Your cooling system should be big enough to remove the amount of heat that enters your home at design conditions, plus the amount of heat or load that you create internally.

Your air conditioner should not only coo1 your home, but filter the air and remove excess humidity as well.Your heating system should abo have apscity to hest your home adequately during cold da)w Installation Central cooling/hating ductwork in thc attic should be free of air leaks, which msy stem from kos>>or bent connections.

Ductwork should be securely wrapped with insulation snd joints should be taped so air won't be kist while traveling to your living area.Proper Temperature Control Thermostat loation and accuracy arc impor-tant.Location must bc in the return sir Row pattern on an inside wall, prefcnbly near the return-air register.If not located properly, it can cause the cooling or heating equipment to run excessively and give false indications of temperatures in the home.Very few thermostats read exactly the same when compared.It is not uncommon to find them three to six degrees o/f.Many cus-tomers actually maintain ps degrees inside when they believe they are maintaining pg degrees.To check the accuracy of your thermo-stat, compare the reading with that of a good quality thermometer.

For most e/ficient operation and reason-able comfort, thermostats should be kept at p8 degrees or above in thc susnmer.In winter, it is recommended that thermostats bc kept at 68 degrees.Filters All heating/cooling systems have or should have filters.The condition of the filter can be a primary source of poor CIIiciency and should be serviced as necdciL No set rule an be applied to how often filters should be replaced.Situations that alfcct this can be location of horne, type of carpets or rugs, type of filter, return-ar plenum size and other variables.

A clean filter will allow the correct air Row to reach the cooling coil or heat exchanger.

A dirty or ckgged filter can result in greater energy use snd erntic opention of the cooling/heating system.If a filter is inadequate.

damaged, does not fit properly, is of poor quality, or is re-moved for long periods of time when the sys-tem is in ojkntion, particles of dirt may be alkwed to pass through thc filtcr and reach the moist cooling coil.These particles adhere to thc coil~build up and restrict the tnnsfer of heat as they sccumuhte.

Thus your air conditioning system may have to work many extra hours to cool your home.Never operate your air conditioning system with the filter out.If this has been done for kngthy periods of time, the cooling coil should bc removed and dancd (by a qualified air condiYioning service company)to restore it to maximum fliciency.

Attt'e Check the insulation on the amc lkor to make sure it ham't scttkd.Old insuhtion may have kst its eSciency.If it is below the rccom-mendcd six inches, have enough added to bring it bach to tandaard.Flat Roof Homes Fht roof homes present a probkm in that their insuhtlon tllust bc installed lvhcsl thc hosllc is built In most cases, it is impossible tachcck or add to the insuhtion in thc'roof/ceiling, once the construction is completed.

It is recom-menckd that a mof insuhtion company be contaxed for evaluation.

Walk Typical masonry wall construction is cight-inch cement block with inside walb furred out one inch and i/z inch gypsum board installed over the furring smps.This leaves a one-inch air space between the block and inside surface, By filling this air space with one-inch insula-tion, you will have higher resistance to heat Row, thereby reducing summer and winter energy usc.For ncto homes of fnmc construction, four inches, of insulation is recommended between thc wall studs.For cziss/ng homes having ceilings with attic space, adding insuhtion in the attic poses no spedal problems, However, it may be ditli-cult to install insulation in thc walls.We recom-ment you check with an insulating contnctor.

Windows and Doors Keep windows and doors ckscd as much as possible.Caulk around all windows.Weather strip around doors, particularly the threshold.

These steps will cut down the escape of inside air snd prevent entry of unfiltered ho't or cold air fmm the vsutdoon.In addition, windows and arcadia-type doors should be shieldol from direct sun or refiected glare and heat from patios aruI other tcfiective surfaces.Use shak window screen-ing, window coating products, awnings, dceid-uous trees and stuubs.Concrete Floors Typical concrete Hoor construction does not present much of a psoblesn during the cooling season.However, it is advisable that pre-scored perimeter insulation be used when the Hoor is originally poured, particularly'o prevent heat loss during the heating season.This is cspceially important in colder areat Fkor coverings such ss carpets and rugs will contribute to comfoct during winter months.They can add to heating elfidency, too, since the protection they o/fer from cold Roon may enable you to kiwer the thermostat soning without atfecting your comfort Wood Floors Fkon exposed to unheated basements or crawl spaces should be insulatal with a mini-mum two-inch barring.Tips espeeidlly for Mobik Home Offers Mobile homes often requite more energy for both heating and cooling, compared with other homes.If you live in a mobile home, here are some of the things you can do to help minimize the operating hours on your heating/cooling sys-tem: i.Place home with the hitch fsdng eas!or west.(If thc hitch is facing nosth or south, you can expect about io per cent more energy use for cooling.)z.Shade or cover the roof.I.Insulate under Hoor area 6.Install shade awnings over doors and windows.S.Put solar scrccning on windows snd glass doors.6.Check all windows and door seals for air Iaks and reseal where necessary.

y.Minimize intcmsl gencntion of heat and moisture, particularly in the after-noon and evening hours, by washing.drying, cooking and cleaning during thc morning hours.Mobik homes sre smaller in size than a permanent resi-dence and internal load from dishwash-ers, showers, exhaust fans, cooking, etc.create special problems during thc air conditioning season.Hawse a Question?For further information about Wise Energy Management in your home, contact the customer service representative at your local APS oflice.OR, in Phoenix, simply dhl C-LI-M.A-T-E PVNGS ER-OL APPENDXX 1H ARIZONA PUBLIC SEj'.VICE COMPANY ELECTRIC CURTAILMENT GUIDELINES Yiay 12, 1972 I.Operating Procedures Prior to.Customer Load Curtailment A.Thc following items would all be pursued concurrently.

to xcduce air conditioning load and to reduce or eliminate operation of machines, facilities or appliances for non-essential production functions or purposes, and to turn off extra lights, swimming pool motoxs, electric water heaters, washing machines, dryers, and will ask customers to mini-mizc the use of electric ranges and other electric applzancos i-2-1H-16 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDXX 18 3.All J,PS area offices whex'e APS normally answer questions for the public will have a prepared state-ment to road which will give current information on the power s'hortage.

III.Involuntary Customer Load Curtailment F A.If the load reduction realized from application of the voluntary curtailment procedures is not sufficient to alleviate the power shortage, the Company will xe-duce voltage if and to the'xtent practical, and in accordance with nor'mal applicable electric utility operating standards.

B.If.still further load reduction is required, a deter-mination will be made as to the amount of the additional load reductio'n, and customers on each eloctric cixcuit classification will be required to curtail their loads a proportionate share equal.in aggregate to the ad-ditional load reduction required: 1~Circuits which serve critical loads (critical lo'ads being defined as those commercial and in-dustrial customers who in the event of 100"'ur-tailmcnt would suffer excessive damage to equip-ment or to material being processed, or where curtaxlmcnt would create gravc hazaxd to employees or to the public).Customers with such critical 3 1H-17 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDXX 1H Electric Curtailment Guidclxncs May 12, 1972 loads will bc required to curtail the non-critical portion of their loads, Thc Company will make every reasonable effort to identify critical loads.If any customer having a critical load refuses'r fails to'urtail his electric consumption down to the critical.load, he shall thereupon not.be considered to have a critical load for.purposes of these guidc-lincs.The'number of specific critical customers curtailed at any onc time will depend on thc magnitude and duration oi the power shortage.These curtailmcnts will be xotatcd in an equitable manner.2.Circuits not classified as"Critical or Essential".

Those circuits will be interrupted on a rotating basis.Thc frequency and duration of such interrup-tions will be dependent upon the magnitude and nature oi the powex shortage.Accurate records will be kept to insure that these circuits are rotated in an equitable manner.C.Circuits which scrvc csscntial loads (csscntial loads lo ds that arc,.c ss ry to thc health and saicty of the'public such as police, fire sta-4-1H-18 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H Electric Curtailment Guide%ines Nay 12, 1972 tions, national defense, sewage facilities, water facilities, hospitals, medical devices such~as an iron lung, etc.).These circuits will be identi*ied and will not b'e interrupted unless an area must be dropped to maintain electric system stability.

The.Company will make every reasonable effort to identify essential loads.'LY.Sudden Shortages of Power.In the-even<that time does not allow for th'e implementa-tion of the.Hlcctric Curtailment Guidelines, the Company may resort to its emergency operating procedures, with or without notice.V.Automatic Load Shedding.In the event that there is a major electrical disturbance threatening the interconnected Southwest system with black-out conditions, emergency devices such as under frequency r load shedding, transfer tripping, etc.will be utilized to maintain the optimum system stability. 1H-19 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDXX 1H EXHIBIT D STATEMENT TO'ARIZONA CORPORATION COMMISSION 1.Summar of EnerSituat'ion The electric utilities in Arizona utilize coal, oil and gas as boiler and turbine fuel for electr'ic generation, along with some hydroelectric power.Coal is in plentiful supply for the plants built to use it, but there are shortages of both natural gas and oil for the other plants.El.Paso Natural Gas, the only gas pipeline supplier to Arizona, has not been able to supply as much gas as is needed for boiler and turbine fuel so that more and mo'e he utilities have become dependent upon oil.At.ho present time, the middle distillate oils needed to fuel peaking turbines and some steam generators are in extremely short supply and are subject to severe allocation by the Office of Petroleum Allocation under a mandatory allocation program.All the major Arizona utilities have applied for emergency allo-cations but at this time it is.not certain whether these alloca-tions will be granted.In addition.the utilities burn heavy residual oil.This oil will be subject to allocation by the Federal Government within the next few weeks, but at this moment allocation procedures are not known.Thc period of greatest, electrical consumption in Arizona is during the summertime, but a fuel shortage could become scvcrc at any time.At present we are hopeful we will receive enough.oil to meet loads through the summer peaks, but there is no 1H-20 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H guarantee we will be able to receive the necessary oil.Since the situation is not clear, we believe that it would be wise for the Commission to adopt a General Order outlining conserva-tion and curtailment procedures to be implemented if and when a fuel shortage develops.Me think it desirable that a uniform general plan for conservation of fuel and for curtailment of electricity be adopted for all the electrical distributors in the State, particularly the major ones, with such'leeway for individual situations as may be thought appropriate.

Such uniformity is necessary since the electric operations of the three major electric distributors are pooled and coordinated as advocated in the Federal Power Act.In addition,, APS furnishes substan-tial amounts of electricity at wholesale to other electric distributors within the state.For both of these reasons and for others, it is highly desirable that the same general prin-ciples of conservation and curtailment be applicable on a statewide basis to all electrical distributors to the extent compatible with their individual situations.

2.Utilit Meetin s Since the Commission notified us of today's meeting the throe largest electrical utilitics have met to discuss curtail-ment proccdurcs that might be appropriate to the operations of their respective systems, and methods of implementing them."2-PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H In addition, we have establi'shod an executive coordinating group to determine what assistance each utility may bring to the other so as to provide as much mutual assistance and/cooperation during the fuel emergency as practicable.

3.Curtailment Procedures Basically, the three major utilities would propose that curtailment and conservation procedures be established through a four-step program: a.When fuel oil supply data suggest that a potential shortage may be developing, the utilities will em-~bark on an educational campaign with their customers, notifying them of the potential shortage, and of the steps that can be taken to conserve energy.In addi-tion, the utilities will reduce their own consumption of electrical energy by eliminating all non-essential uses.These steps have already been instituted on a voluntary basis by the three major distributors.

b.C~When.fuel oil supplies have been reduced to a desig-.nated level, and are declining, the companies will intensify their educational campaign and will immedi-ately ask all customers to voluntarily reduce consump-tion to the maximum cxtcnt practical.

b'hen fuel supplies are further reduced to a lower designated level and the decline appears 3.ikcly to-3-1H-22 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1H continue, the utilities will inform the Arizona Corporation Commission that a fuel emergency exists.The Corporation Commission, after verify-ing the facts, will certify to the Governor (or other governmental office designated b'y the Legis-lature)that an electrical energy emergency exists.In turn, the Governor will order consumers through-out the state to eliminate a specific list of non-essential us.s, to be established by the Commission, and will order customer reductions in electrical energy.consumption in every way possible.d..lichen the fuel oil supply has been reduced to an even'ower designated level and'urther decline appears probable, the utilities will invoke mandatory cur-tailments in accordance with an appropriate govern-mental order.In the case oi public service corporations, this will be an order issued by the Corporation Commission (in the case'f APS, the Commission's existing order is'No.42097).In the case of other electrical distributors, legislation probably must be enacted empowering the Corporation Commission or some other governmental agency to order such curtailment.

1H-23 PVNGS ER-OL APPENDXX 1H 4, Necessar tutu're Action In order to implement these curtailment steps it will be necessary for the Corporation Commission to enact a-new General Order.It'will also be necessary fox the Legislature (i)to authorize the Coxporation Commission to adopt cuxtailment plans for utilities not subject presently to its jurisdiction, and (ii)to empower the Governor or other governmental office or ag ncy to take the steps outlined above.APS will be happy to assist the Legislature, the Attorney General, the Commission Staff, and join with representatives from the other electrical distributors in doing whatever is necessary to resolve this problem.1H-24 ARIZONA POBLIC SERVICE CCNPANI Appcndhx 1 Sheet I ot 2 FPC Fora Xo 19 Itea>Line No 1973 Dec Jsn.Feb 1974 Har.~Ar.~Na June~Jul.~Au.~ge t.Oct~Nov Total 1974 I.Net Generation

o~a H H PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1I TOTAI ENERGY blAV AGE~~KNT P ROGRMl.The energy shortage in Los Angeles and throughout the Nation applies not only to electricity, but to gas ard a'l fossil fuels.With the rapidly diminishing supply of natural gas and the necessity to import low-sulfur oil from distant foreign sources to meet clean air standards, any interruotion in the supply of fuel oil could result in a severe energy shortage.Our ability to meet the short-tern demand for electrical energy, as well as the energy requiremen" s for future years depends upon the elimination of waste, efficier.t use and securing adequate supplies of fuel which can, be converted into electric power.Because of the d'stinct possibility of a shortage o electrical energy, the Depart-.!ent has preoared the following Total Energy Management Program to extend fuel suppl'.es for essential use, to minimize the hardship of coing w'th l=ss, and ro sorca" the burden equally among all affocred.Tne program, ir.order to~be meaningful an icipates amcng other t"..ings two important ac'o.";=-by local government.

These are: l.Enactment o certain ordinances prohibiting nonessential uses of energy,'s well as x'estricting commercial/indus rial activi y'as'equired.

2.The granting of a variance by the Air Pollution Control District permitting the burning of oil with more than 0.5 percent sulfur content in order to prevent curtail-ment of electrical energy for essential needs.In addition, because of the serious economic and social consequences of an electrical power shortage, the Depart-...en along with other utilities,'s encouraging Federal authorities to recogrize that a mandatory allocation orocedure is required which will acknowledge the high priority of utilities for fuel requi"e-ments.The five phases oC the Total Energy ilanagement Program consist of the following steps.I'ONSERVATION The program, in its first phase (CONSERVATION), is an intensification and a contiruation o the-Department's ongoing long-term commitment to wise and efficient use of electrical energy.'"nis work will essentially be carried PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1I out by the personnel of the Powe'r Services Division along with increased public awareness assistance provided by the Public Relations Division, which includes: A.Providing for consultation services to consumers, architects and engineers regarding the most.effi-cient ways of using electrical energy.B.Suggesting

'the optimum designs of buildings and equipment installation which result in maximum energy conservation.

C.Providing for education and instruction of the general public in the selection, irstallation, and use and care of appliances with special emphasis to the disadvantaged and elderly.D.Providing customers with additional educational materials,'ooklets, brochures, periodicals and'emonstrations on conservation and techniques to achieve the maximum value from energy used.E.Providing n w and advanced technical expertise to architects, engineers, etc., on the most efficient methods of using lighting, heating, cooling, etc.P.Working with legislators and,elected officials to devise useful laws and codes to,eliminate wasteful energy practices.

G.Conducting public information programs and forums regarding conservation and the efficient use of electrical energy.H.Encouraging conservation by whatever means available and participating in the development of energy con-servation programs for the City, State and the entire Nation through representation on committees and mem-berships in such organizations.

II'CLUNiTARY CURTAILi4KNT The curtailment phases of the program, both voluntary and mandatory, would be implemented on the basis of total fuel oil availability.

This includes both s orage on hand and estimated deliveries under firm contract, and is determined on'regular and continu'ng basis.This amount, when combined with estimates of fuel oil consumption (rate of burn), enables the Department to determine that po'nt in time when consumption will exceed supply.When it is indicated that the point ir.time when consumption will exceed total supply will occur within 180 days, the second phase of the program (VOL4".iTARY CURTAILMENT) vill be implemented.

This phase will req::est, PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1I but not"re uire customers to do without electrical energy for all nonessential uses.A few examples of these are: A.All lighting that is not in actual use.B.The illumination and air conditioning of the interior of.stores and offices and other places of business when such establishments are not copen for business.C.Decorative and ornamental lighting of buildings.

D.Floodlighting of outdoor areas such as service stations, used car lots, parking lots, etc.,.during daylight hours.E.Operation of outdoor security lighting during day-light hours.F.Operation of decorative fountains, water falls, etc.The effectiveness of the voluntary programs depends on active cooperation by all energy consu...~ers--large and smal', private and public.In order to mak these e fectiv>>, some controls on energy use by public agencies may be necessary,*such as a reduction in street lighting and restricting all unnecessary uses by these agencies.The amount of energy such controls on public agencies might save may be relatively insignificant in terms of fuel oil, but their significance as'a means of creating an awarene s to the existenc=of i serious common problem justifies consideration for their adoption.Again, the major effort to secure voluntar: compliance would be the responsibility of the Power Services Division wit.h assistance from the Public Relations Division to help accom-plish the desired results.III.MANDATORY CURTAILMENT Should the foregoing fail to reduce energy use to adequately extend fuel supplies and it has been determined that within 150 days c-nsumption o fuel will exceed total supply, it would then be necessary to invoke the third phase of the program (h>NDATORY CURTAIL:ANT)

.By means of emergency ordinances customers would be required to do without electrica'nergy for some'eci ic uses.The penalty for noncompliance would be the discont'nuance of electric service.When it*is indicated that the consumption of fuel wi~1 exceed the total supply within 120 days, further mandatory cur-tailment imposing additional restrictions reduc'ng energy use by limiting'the hours of cperation for business and industry would be*imposed.

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1I IV FUEL OIL VARIANCE In an effort to forestall more drastic.steps, the Department would endeavor to burn fuel oil with a sulfur cont;ent higher than 0.5 percent, provided that prior variance approval had been.obtained from the p oper regulatory agencies in sufficient time to purchase and store such fuel which is the type of oil produced in the United States.If a variance is obtained, the Departmeht will purchase conventional fuel oil to supplement low-sulfur fuel oil supplies up to 90 percent of the total fuel oil require-ments.Purchase of conventional uel oil would not be made prior to phase II of the.otal Energy~Ianagement Program, or 180 days before consumption of fuel will exceed the total supply.Such purchases would be limited to the amount necessary to meet 90 pere"nt of the need for.the minimum period"practicable.

Further, wnenever poss'bio, the'urning of conventional fuel oil would be limited to those per'ds when because of favorable atmospheric concitions it would have the least envirormental impact on the Los Angeles Air Basin.V ROTATING DISCONNECTS When it is indicated that within 90 davs the con-sumption of fuel oil will exceed the total supply and in the event that oil o a higher sulfur content is not available o that a variance to use such fuel under emergency,ccndit'ons is not permitted, it wou'd be necessary to resort to thc final phase (ROTATING DISCONNECTS)

.In recognition of the fact that certain critical loads, such as hospitals, police and fire stations, sewer pumps, etc., must be cons'dered essential to public heal=h and safety, Department engineers are developing a rotating disconnection plan on the following basis.A Im lementation Approximately two weeks before rotating dis-connects are put into e feet, switching will be per-formed in distributing stations to segregate, as.far as possible, certain essential loads.Because of the physical arrargement of the Department's power system and the manpower required for switch'ng at'the distri-bution level, this segregation can only be partially achieved.Feeders to nonessentia'oads will be isolated by a bus section.in each distributing station which will allow de-energizing that section on a rotating basis.Feeders se"ving sewage and'ater pumps, ho pitals, police and fire stations and other essent'l needs will not bc subject to the rotati.ng disconnects under this arrangement.

Some nonessent'al uses normally served from

-'s PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX lI feeders supplying essential uses wi;ll likewise not be subject to the rotating disconnects, but will continue to, receive el'ectric ser:ice.Similarly, it may be necessary to have a portion of the Department's 34.5 kv system remain energized at all times.By so doing, major hospitals, industrial plan"s, tall building" and other customers served at 34,500 volts will continue to receive some service.Througn this procedure it is intended'o provide to the'fullest extent possible essenti'al services necessary or the protection cf life and property, as w 11 as'aintain sufficient economic stability to prevent hardship and unem" loyment.Custome'rs w'ho are not curtailed by rotating disconnects will be required to'curtail their use of electricitv in an amount co."..parab'e to tnat of the cur-tailed customers.

By so doi..g, it's estimated that under this plan the Department would"e able to rotate disconnects through approximately 50 oe"cent o.its load.This'n turn could require longer disconnec" periods of up three hours for those af ected in ord r to obtain"he requireds savings in fuel consumo"ion.

PROGP~V1 MANAGEvENT AND COORD<<NATION F The Emergency Information Center in the Po'<<'er Serve ces Division has been established s a control point d ring var'us phases of conservation, curtailment and disconne'ts, eithe ceca.se of lack of fuel or insuf.icien capac'ty to.-..et the system'oad.The Center disseminates energy conservation infor.-..a"'on and anew inquiries about related matters.There the Department mainta's records of customers with a station capacity of 1000 kva*or more, and those dependent upon life-sl pport eq'p-..ent, s-ch as iron'ungs or artificial kidney machi..es, wno shoal" be noti ied in event n'ower emergencies.

It provides=or orde ly and accurate co.".;-..un cations between the Depart;:.ent of'ater and Po<<er and custcmers during an emergency.

In add'ion, through the Center, contact is'maintained wi h police, fire, traffic and other p blic service agencies to keep them abreast of the latest deve'op;..

nts to insure that such~eds of the City will be handled in the best manner during critical periods.Based on information obtained during cus"orner surveys, notice of mai'dat'ory curta'lment o-rotating blackouts may be given to large industrial and coruercial complexes in affected areas.Notification procedure details will be updated wnenever necessary to handle new or changing situations.

Questions regarding the Center's operation are referred to the E..urgency Inform=ticn Center, telephone 481-5745.swhen surveys e e cc...nie ec, the list will bc customers w<<t'h stations o'00 kva or more.

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1I Further, the Emergency Information Center regularly dissemirates energy conservation information and handles related customer inquiries when not on an alert status.LEGISLATIVE ACTION That portion of the program relating to the emergenCy ordinances required in order fo" the Department to implement the various phases would, among other things: Prohibit all unnecessary use of electricity throughout the City (difficult to impose--primarily for morale impact).2~Extend daylight saving time (resolution already adopted by the Board of Rater and Power Commissioners)

.3.Reduce all street and hichway lighting by one-half during the emergency period.lt Prohibit all noness ntial lighting and o her uses, such as electric sign operations, billboards, advertising signs, motors or devices to rotate or move advertising signs, building floodlighting, architectural or decorative

'ight'ng, fountain ligh in'dd pump motors;e.g.,"No person shall use nr permit th use or artificial light for decorative purposes or to direct the atten-tion to providers of goods, services, entrarc parking or to illuminate or direct'attention to signs advertising goods or services or tne providers thereof;symbolic design of com-mercial enterprises, trademarks o" logos;and building or landscaping, etc.Such lighting does not include the lighting for security or to identify the location of essertia'ervices, such as police, fire, hospitals, communications etc." 5 Prohibit floodlighting of outdoor areas, such as service stations, used car lots, parking lots, etc., during daylight hours.Lighting during evening hours would be permitted only when open for business in an amount not to exceed 50 percent of previous normal use.6.Prohibit all public exhibitions, night out-door sporting events and similar act'vities including plays, concerts and amusement parks, wherein the activities or performances would continue for more than one (1)hour after sunset.

PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1I 7 Prohibit the operation of space heating and cooling equipment in commercial establishments

~...;when they, are-not open for business.Durir<g business hours thermostats are to be set to maintain temperatures at the lower limit of established comfort zones during heating periods and at the higher limit of such comfort zones during cooling periods.8.Limit the hours of operation for all commercial establishments,.wholesale and retail selling and services with the exception of pharraacies, hospitals and emergency services to five (5)days per,week and ten (10)hours per'day, or any 50 hours5.787037e-4 days <br />0.0139 hours <br />8.267196e-5 weeks <br />1.9025e-5 months <br /> per week combination thereof.Limit the hours of operation of manu acturing and industrial aci'it'es, except certain continuous-process industries, such as petroleum refineries, metal and glass melting, pharmaceu-tical and.biochemical procedures to 50 hours5.787037e-4 days <br />0.0139 hours <br />8.267196e-5 weeks <br />1.9025e-5 months <br /> per week.~'0.Require all existing customers with demarrds of 500 kw and.over to file a conservation and'cur-tailment plan with the Department of Water and Power within three (3)months after passage'd to file subsequent plans updating the information on an annual basis or whenever cnanges are made that would alter the plan.For new service'onnections, such a plan woulDbe required within, three (3)months after obtaining permanent electric service.The plan submitted should indicate the normal hours of operation and normal energy use, the amount of energy that can be reduced for dif-ferent periods cf time,.as well as the time required to implement the reductions.

As stated earlier, the'enalty for noncompliance with such emergency ordinances would be discontinuance of electric serv'ce.In addition to the foregoing suggested ordinances regard-ing emergency procedures,, there are other important ccnditr.ons that are related to'long-term planning, furthe" research and development, and additional

.legislative.action somewhat removed from direct PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1I Department control.It is recommended that the following provi-.sions be considered for adoption by ordinance into local building codes.Building insulation requirements (would introduce new and/or more stringent require-ments in all construction to conserve all forms of energy).2~Limit the sale and installation of air-conditioning equipment to more efficient models (those with an energy efficiency ratio of seven (7)or better, as listed in the AHAM (Association of" Home Appliance Manufacturers)

Guide).3~Require labeling and efficiency rating of all air-conditioning equipment and appliances.

Require interlock heating and cooling equip-ment to prevent simultaneous operation.

5.Require automatic closing doors leading to all commercial/industrial air-corditioned space--prohibit new air curtain door installations.

6.7.Require springloaded or self-closing doors on all refrigerator and freezer display cabinets.Require economy cycle provisions on all new air-conditioning installations (use of outside air rather than chillers when tne outside air temperature is below that desired inside).8.Restrict the unlimited use of glass on building face ar'eas.9.Require (double glazing on all new commercial building outside wall areas.10.Prohibit new installations of terminal reheat air-conditioning sys tems.12.Prohibit unrestricted use of incandescent lighting in new co-..acr ial/industrial con-struction (mandatory fluorescent lighting in large open areas, such as warehouses, parking, hallways, etc.).Require lighting in each use area to be sepa-rately switched, rather than on a floor-by-floor or large-zone basis.

PVNGS ER-OI APPENDIX 1I 13.14.Require engineering studies to evaluate total energy requ'rements in all new construction projects with regard to equipment, site orien-tation, building shape, etc., to d'etermine minimum energy r<quirement combinations.(already introduced at State Legislature)

.Place a moratorium on all new construction requiring new ele"tric service connections to serve new or increased electrical loads.RATE CONSIDERATIONS Suggestions have been made that the Department's rate structure shou'd be changed in orde" o influence the demand for energy and reduce its use.None of these changes have been included so far in the Total Energy Management Procram.Previo s studies conducted by several public utility co.-..-.,issions, as"ell as the analyses of recognized util'ity economists de-..."nstrate that neither a flattening nor inverting o the"ate struc"'re would significantly curtail the cons.option o enough elec"r'city in the time frame necessary to he.l.p overcome the magnitude of the~fuel shortage contemplated in i:his program.Other rate-related considerations in addition to the foregoing requiring further investigation are: 1.Require individual metering for all new dwelling uni ts a f te r J anua ry1, 19 75.2.Rental of submeters to audit tenants in m'aster-metered buildings.

3.Rate incentive for installing load defer-'ment systems.4.Seasonal surcharge during high-use period Th'e entire rate structure of the Department of Watc and Power, including those facets that may affect energy consu:",.ption, is currently under study by the Department Management and the'oard of Water and Power Commissioners..If it is determined that rate modifi'.catiors could have a meaningful effect on energy con-sumption, they will be incorporated in the Department's Total Energy Management Program.AJR: uvb 11-14-73 PVNGS ER-OI APPENDIX lZ ORDINANCE NO.145 350 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES ADDING CHAPTER XIII TO THE LOS ANGELES MUNICIPAL CODE KNOWN AS"THE EMERGENCY ENERGY CURTAILMENT PLAN OF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES" THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1.The Los Angeles Municipal Code is hereby amended by the addition of Chapter XIII thereto, said new Chapter to provide as follows: CHAPTER XIII THE EMERGENCY ENERGY CURTAILh1FNT PLAN OF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES SEC.131.00.~Sco e.There is hereby estahlished a City of Los Angeles Emergency Energy Curtailment Plan.SEC.131.01.Declaration of Urgency.The Council of the City of Los Angeles hereby finds and declares that there exists withir this City an electrical energy emergency, and that as a result, there is an urgent necessity to take legislative action through the exercise o" the police power to protect the public peace, health, and'sa ety of this Catty from a public disaster or calamity, to take effect immediately upon publication of this Ordinance.

They are confused 4 by the public controversy surrounding the utility industry, nuclear power, and the relationship between the industry and its customers.and shareholders.

Much of the uncertainty is due to a lack of technical understanding by the news media.This state of frustration and uncertainty makes fertile political ground which clouds the real issue at hand, namely the importance of conservation.

Until new energy sources are developed, conservation is one means of dealing with the energy problems of America.The concept of energy conservation can be discussed in different veins, each predicated on a particular belief or social bent.That is to say, conservation can be discussed in moral terms, political terms, or economic terms.Regardless of the approach, El Paso Electric, hereafter referred to as the Company, is committed to programs having a positive effect on energy conservation.

For several years the Company has been asking its customers to eliminate energy waste.In 1977, the Company formed an Energy Utilization and Conservation Department, developed conservation manuals, allotted much of its advertising toward the need to conserve, and participates in research programs to develop more exotic means of power generation to replace oil and natural gas.Employees assigned to the Energy Utilization Department are knowledgeable in modern methods of weatherizing an existing home, business, or industrial plant.On request they will perform an energy audit with an onsite inspection of a building's insulation, caulking, weatherstripping, windows, PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1J heating'nd cooling methods, etc., making recommendations to bring it up to an energy efficient standard.A certified list of insulating contractors can be furnished.

Once the building is retrofitted to the specifications, an energy efficient award is presented.

l'WISE (Weatherized and Insulated to Save Energy)home program has been developed for new home construction.

The Energy Utilization Department has developed specifications covering the areas of weatherizing needed to meet prevailing standards of energy conservation.

The WISE home program is conducted in conjunction with area home builders.Some advertising has been done on behalf of the Energy Efficient Home and WISE home programs with the inclusion of the Company's advertising slogan,"Let's all save energy today for a stronger tomorrow!" More than 17,000 copies of the Company's booklet,"82 Ways to Help Control your Energy Bill," have been distributed.

Bill stuffers, buttons, bulletins, and articles in various publications all added to the conservation appeal.In fact, the Company was recognized by the Federal Energy Administration in 1977 as having one of the best energy conservation action programs in the nation.In order to assist better public understanding of energy economics and practical energy alternatives, the Company organized a speakers'ureau composed of volunteers from throughout the Company.The participants undergo training in public speaking and are available to speak on a variety of top3.cs.The Company organized an educational services program in cooperation with local public schools.This program provides teachers and students with energy related materials and class-room presentations.

PVNGS'R-OL a APPENDIX 1J Public awareness of the circumstances faced by the Company in P providing'electric energy is a continuing challenge.

The.Company has ceased all sales promotion activities and sub-stituted a campaign of conservation measures with the dominant.theme,"Together we can do it", emphasizing the Company's involvement with its customers in conserving energy.Work is just.beginning on the importance of rate structure as, a device for promoting energy conservation.

Investigation, is being undertaken to study the effects of peak load pricing.The use of'econometric and other statistical models is being intensified and, although the results are still preliminary, indications are that elasticity coefficients should have a driving influence on price structure.

Point elasticity coefficients are employed to measure the effects of own price changes on present consumption patterns.-Change in own price affecting future electrical consumption patterns is indicated by ar'c elasticity coefficients.'ross-price elasticity coefficients are important in determining the degree of I substitution between the two primary sources of energy, g electricity and natural gas.The Company is committed to the concept of providing efficient, low cost energy.In order to do so, the Company has adopted a policy combining engineering design changes and capital expenditures which provide economies in the productive process.Of great importance has been the addition of a computerized automatic dispatching system.The computer has instantaneous access to heat rate curves, fuel prices, and other data necessary to direct the optimally efficient combination of production units.The Company employs individuals on a full-'ime basis to continually monitor each production unit through the'aid of various computer software packages.Great strides have been advanced in the fuel planning process.Improved purchasing policies coupled with spot purchases, of fuel oils, PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1J the retention of an external auditing firm to assure the Company of equitable dealings with.its suppliers, and participation in the Big Bend Reserve Trust to reduce the carrying costs on fuel inventories are a few of the important steps taken to provide economies.

Further, the Company has intervened at several hearings of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the Texas Railroad Commission to ensure a fair price as well as availability of natural gas supplies.Natural gas is important as an igniter fuel due to its heating efficiency, The Company is not only interested in conservation and efficiency in the production phase but is equally concerned with the transmission of bulk power and the final utilization of electricity.

As a result, the Company is continually phasing out low transmission voltages in favor of a higher voltage level.The Company has,installed"low-loss" distribu-tion transformers and capacitor banks, thereby improving conservation factors.Continued monitoring and voltage profile analysis and control enable the Company to recognize problem areas and take the appropriate corrective action.On reguest, the Company will assist custome'rs with analysis of their power needs subsequently minimizing the potential of voltage losses on the customer's side of the meter.The net result is clear.El Paso Electric is committed to providing electric power in an efficient and economical manner while concurrently assisting in the greater goal of conserva-tion with minimal sacrifice.

Emergency Actions for Conservation of Petroleum and Natural Gas Fuel Resources by Electric Utilities, Docket No.NH 74 7, O-rde-r No.496, Issued November 29, 1973 In'addition to the data supplied as FPC Form No.19, the followinp, information is requested in paragraph (c), page 7, of Order No.496: In the spring of 1972, the Salt River Project and other area utilities cooperated in drafting a program aimed at consumer conservation and curtailment actions in the event of capacity limitations on our combined systems which would prevent our continuing full service to our customers.

When it became apparent that, the fuel crisis could well result in the necessity for service interruptions to our customers, we developed a program to meet this potential energy-short situation.

Currently we are reassessing this program in light of the apparent severity of the energy crisis and coordinating with other area utilities to achieve consistency of actions.Since these plans are neither completed nor approved, they are not yet available for your reference; however, the first step of each utility's plans was to commence a strong conservation pxogram among all customers.

This conservation action has utilized personal calls, demonstrations, bill stuffers, and all forms of general media.We have compiled and enclosed material distributed to Salt River Project employees, material distributed to all SRP customers, news releases, advertisements, etc, Mhile these conservation efforts should decrease the average use pex customer, overall energy demands actually may continue to increase because the Salt River Project service area is exper-iencing high population growth.Arizona has been identified as the fastest-growing state in the USA.

PVNGS ER-OL aXPEmXX 1L 1'PC December 14, 1973 Page two Specific steps which have been taken regarding other utilities include the following:

City of Mesa-Salt River Project has requested the City of Mesa, a wholesale purchaser of power and energy, to decrease its energy consumption to the maximum extent possible such that service is available to those uses which are essential.

We have requested-that-no excess energy be taken even though allowed under the existing contract.2.~Colorado River Commission of Nevada-Salt River Project has terminated a p'ower and energy exchange agreement that will now allow 73,200,000 kwh annually to be delivered to Salt River Project from a hydro-source

'Parker-Davis Project), thus decreasing oil use on the Salt River Project system.30 Miscellaneous Excess Energy Agreements

<<Salt River Project is.now operating under the policy of delivering excess energy to other utilities only if the energy will be returned at a later date and will displace similar'eneration as that which was utilized to make the initial delivery.The following actions have been taken internally to effect immed-iate reductions in the consumption of electric, power and energy: 1.Chilled water units have been cut back in their operating time.2.3.4, 5.6.Strip heating has been eliminated in 95 percent of most areas.Adequate heat for health environment is furnished from the reduced number of light fixtures and from body heat of occupants.

Thermostats and controls of heat pumps and other con-ventional heating equipment have been.lowered.Hot water supplies to lavatories in most restrooms have been shut off.Xn others, thermostats controlling water temperature have been lowered.The temperature of hot water supplies in the shops of Project crews have been lowered at thermostats.

Employees have been encouraged to control unnecessary opening of doors and windows to avoid introducing probleme into air conditioning systems.1L-2 FPC December 14, 1973 Page three PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1L 7.The light 1evel of all fluorescent and incandescent light fixtures in all interior areas has been reduced where feasible.8.All exterior and security lighting has been reduced to a minimum.9.Portable electric heaters and coolers have been removed where central systems are used for air conditioning.

10.At generating stations, lights are used only during inspections'on boilers, cooling towers and switchyards.

~Lights are turned off between inspections.

ll.A new addition of 87,000 square feet to the SRP main office building is almost complete;energy use for this addition will tend to make energy savings achieved seem less apparent when total main building use is considered.

Qe are certain that you realize that many estimates and assumptions were necersary in preparing the data for FPC.Form No.19.We have tried to identify some of these assumptions in footnotes on the form in an effort to indicate possible degree of validity of the data.Very truly yours,'w ster A o a General Manager-Power Enclosures

+4 Reductions are based on an average 37.voluntary reduction for industrial customers and 10/for large commercial customers, as reported to us through a survey of these types of customers.

/5 Load and system characteristics are such that energy savings would be negligible for any reasonable voltage reductions.

/6 Ail regional and neighborhood shopping centers were included in the estimated reductions.

Estimates are based on all coamercial establishments closing at 6:00 p.m.daily and remaining closed all day Sunday.The reductions assume a governmental decree requiring at least.a 257 reduction in usage not essential to public health and safety./g It is impossible to isolate the amount of this load without performing an extensive, time-consuming load survey;however, Item III, 4;(line 9a)encompasses the minimisation of this type of energy use./9 Since coal-fired generation presently is being optimiaed, ao further reduction in oil or gas is anticipated.

/IO Under present operating conditions, unscheduled purchase power and hydro generation are being utilized for operating reserve in order to minimise combustion turbine operation.

Combustion turbines are being operated more often for energy production than for maintaining system reserve.

Edison has'he ability to store and burn a blend of crude and other heavy oils.The use of this blend precludes the segregation of oil requirements into crude-and other heavy oils as.required in Section 3 of Schedules 2 and 2A and in Section 2 of Schedule 4.2.Instructions for Items 2 (d)and 4 (d)of Schedules 2 and 2A require reporting those quantities of natural gas and distillate oil that are consumed in electric generating equip-ment for start-up, shut-down, and testing for each of the recorded and projected months covered in a report.Fuels used for the aforementioned purpo-es are not separately measured or projected by the Edison Company.However, it is estimated that approximately 475,000 MCF of natural gas are PVNGS ER-OL APPENDIX 1M required each month by the Edison Company for ignition, flame stabilization, plant protection, and other firm uses.Gas for these uses is included in the amount reported on Line 2(a)(for steam-electric generation) of Schedules 2 and 2A.3.Edison, on October 4, 1975, entered into a long-term contract for the purchase of low sulfur residual fuel oil with Pertamina, the national oil company of the Republic of Indonesia. This agreement provides for the importation of low sulfur resi-dual fuel oil beginning in January 1976 at a rate of approxi-mately 20,000 barrels per day for 1976 and that portion of 1977 covered in the enclosed Form 23-B.Edison's requirements, as shown in Schedule 2, have'een reduced to reflect the volumes of foreign oil purchased from Pertamina. In addition, the oil requirements reported in schedule 2 have been reduced by 1 million barrels per month for October through December, 1976 in order to reflect inventory drawdown.Yours very truly, Original Signed By Ronald Danie/Enclosures ccrc Federal Energy Administration, Data Collection W.R.Johnson, CPUC, San Francisco W.J.Cavagnaro, CPUC;San Francisco R.D.Gravelle, CPUC, San Francisco J.C.Simpson, CPUC, San Francisco F.E.John, CPUC, San Francisco S.M.Andrew, Pacific Gas and Electric Company J.M.Henderson, San Diego Gas a Electric Company J.O.Russell, Los Angeles Dept.of Water and Power E.J.Terhaar, California Dept of Water Resources J.L.McKinley, Western Systems Coordinating Council 1M-2 PVNGS ER-OL AP'?ENDIX 1M Pd.em 2}8 Ihi~fora supersedes t d~)5)FPC fores 23 and 2}A+pl.**o Approv ail by CAO Ho, 8 I80228(R0002y Eepires e 8}l-18 O~,~~~Ia5" h)I a}'0 825 North Chpitol Street Vashingtun> O.C.20a26 H I AI OH NO~Copy fron envelope)48000000 QUARTERLY L'LECTRIC UTILITY GENERATION AND FUEL PLANNING REPORT PT.EASE REAT)CAREFULLY This report, to be filed quarterly, is a consolidation of FPC Forms 23 and 23-A and is designed for reporting projected and actual data concerning electric utility generation and fuel requirements.

The total area of the plant property is approximately 4050 acres.The site is bounded on the south by Ward Road (Elliot Road)and on the west by Wintersburg Road.No public roads or railroads cross the site.Site elevations range from d90 feet above mean sea level at the southern boundary to 1030 feet above mean sea level at.the northern boundary.Figure 2.1-1 defines the boundary of the plant exclusion area.The exclusion area boundary coincides with the plant site boundary except in the southern portion of the property.Minimum distances from each unit to the site boundary and the exclusion boundary are provided in tables 2.1-1 and 2.1-2, respectively.

2.1.1.3 Boundaries for Establishin Effluent Release Limits The boundary for establishing effluent release limits coin-cides with the plant site boundary (refer to figure 2.1-1)..For purposes of radiation protection and general safety, the area within the site boundary will be under the control of the applicant.

The areas around the main buildings of the plant site are fenced and patrolled.

The 1978 population distributions for the 5-10 mile radii were based on l970 U.S.Bureau of the Census data.Population cen-troids, that is the locations of population within census enumeration districts, were assigned by the census bureau.Population totals per sector were calculated based on the loca-tion of these centroids relative to PVNGS.2.1-4 PVNGS ER-OL GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY Figures 2.1-4 through 2.1-12'illustrate the estimated residen-tial population located within a 10-mile radius of the plant site for the.years 1980, 1982, 1984, 1986, 1990, 2000, 2010, 2020, and 2030.Data are displayed at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10-mile distances from the centerline of the Unit 2 containment building, for the 16 compass sectors.Maricopa County popula-tion estimates provided by the Arizona State Department of Economic Security~for the years 1980, 1982, 1984, l986, 1990, and 2000 were used for all six radii calculations.

Maricopa County population projections for the years 2010, 2020, and 2030 were derived from the assumption that decennial growth rates from 2000 to 2030 would be held constant to the same rate of growth as experienced between 1990 and 2000.Population projections were calculated in the same manner as the 1978 estimated 5-10 mile radius population.

during the March to November green chop (corn and/or grass)growing season, feed consists of a mixture of 30 to 35%green chop, and 65 to 70%silage or pre-mixed rations.From December to February, feed con-sists exclusively of silage or pre-mixed rations.It is expected that by 1990, all dairies presently located within a 40 to 50-mile radius of PVNGS, with the exception of dairy number 71, will have been relocated outside of this area due to the projected expansion of the Phoenix metropoli-tan area.It is also expected that by 1990, average annual milk produc-tion per cow will increase from the current 13,000-pound yield to a 17,000-pound yield, and that the average number of cows per dairy will increase by 50%.2.1.3.4.4 Meat Production Within a 50-Mile Radius, of the PVNGS Plant Site Figure 2.1-17 illustrates the location of beef feedlots within a 50-mile radius of PVNGS.Table 2.1-11 lists by distance and direction from the PVNGS all beef feedlots identified on fig-ure 2.1-17.Table 2.1-12 lists the 1977 meat production'ields within a 50-mile radius of PVNGS.The yields cited include not only cattle and calves, but hogs and sheep as well.2 Q 1 2 3 PVNGS ER-OL Table 2.1-9 GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY LOCATION OF DAIRIES WITHIN 50 MILES OF THE PALO VERDE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION (Sheet 1 of 3)(See figure 2.1-15)Distance and Direction From Plant Site (mi)5-10 E Code Number Dairy Owner Cordell Baisley 10-20 E 8 8a Butler Brothers Butler Brothers Long Dairy PW Dairy 51 Kelley PW Dairy 52 II Norcon Haggard Enterprise 10-20 ESE Hardison 20-30 ENE 10 ll 12 13 Fred Lueck Baca Linda Mountain Shadows A+H 20-30 E 30-40 ENE 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 R.J.Lueck (A+M)Van Leeuwen Hoffman Fred Lueck Al Lueck, Jr.Kerr Al Lueck, Sr.Treguboff 42 Robert Bliss 2.1-24 PVNGS ER-OL GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY Table'2.1-9 LOCATION OF DAIRIES WITHIN 50 MILES OF THE=PALO VERDE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION (Sheet, 2 of 3)(See figure 2.1-15)Distance and Direction From Plant Site (mi)30-40 ENE Code Number 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47-48 49 Da'iry Owner Graham Sampson Hussey Triple G.Dairy, Inc.t R+G S Pendergast, Baric Enterprises Happy'Ours Farms Desert View Van Der Linden Treguboff gl Amador Li'ncoln Copperstate Rovey Ulmer Gladtime Dairy Ezra Odle W.Baker Neilson Certified Crow Norman Hale Tres Amigos Peter Treguboff Edward Boschma Gerben Boschma 2.1-25 PVNGS ER-OL Table 2.1-9 GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY LOCATION OF DAIRIES WITHIN 50 MILES OF THE PALQ VERDE NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION (Sheet 3,of.3).=(See figure 2.1-15)Distance and Direction From Plant Site (mi)30-40 ENE Code Number 50 51 52 Dairy Owner Van Hofwegen Edendale Neil Viss gl 30-40 E 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 Tzoug Hawpe Neil Viss N2 Calzona Sun Valley Stechnis Owens Kasbergen Kasbergen 40-50 ENE 62 63 64 65 66 67 Stump Eyherabide Smith St.Johns C.Dykstra J.Dykstra 40-50 E 68 69 70 71 Cheatham Van Loon La Salvia Goldman Note: With the exception of dairy number 34, Amador Goat Dairy, all dairies are cow dairies.2.1-26 Table 2.1-10 1978 MILK PRODUCTION WITHIN 50 MILES OF THE PVNGS SITE Annual Hilk Production (Liters)0tol Direction Hi les N NNE ENE E ESE SE SSE S SSW SW WSW NW NNW Total 1 to 2 Miles 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2to3 Miles 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0~0 0 0 3 to 4 Miles 4to5 Hiles 5 to 10 Hiles 0 0 0 0 1.6(+06)0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1.6(+06)10 to 20 Miles 0 0 0 0 l.2 (+07)6.1(+05)0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1.3(+07)20 to 30 Miles 0 0 0 6.7(+06)2.0(+07)0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2.7 (+07)30 to 40 Miles 0 0 0 2.4 (+07)5.6(+07)0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8.0 (+07)40 to 50 Miles 0 0 0 8.6 (+06)l.4 (+07)0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2.3 (+07)Total Miles 0 0 0 3.9(+07)1.0(+08)6.1(+05)0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1.4 (+08)

PVNGS ER-,OL GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY The yields assumed that: o All beef cattle feedlots located within Maricopa County are constantly filled throughout the year at their maximum capacity 6 All beef cattle feedlots located in Maricopa County operate on a six complete turn-over cycle annually o The same percentage of cattle, hogs and sheep grown in Maricopa County are also slaughtered in Maricopa County Hogs and"sheep are raised in the same sector as beef cattle Forty-seven percent of the total liveweight of beef cattle is destined for human consumption Seventy-five percent of the total liveweight of hogs is destined for human'consumption o Forty-five percent of the total liveweight of sheep.is destined for human consumption~

Range cattle raised within a 50-mile radius of PVNGS are excluded from consideration as steers and heifers not used for herd replacement are shipped to feedlots prior to slaughter-ing.It is assumed that the number of cull cows and bulls.hipped directly from the range to packing houses is negligible.

The feeding regime of beef cattle located within a 50-mile radius of PVNGS is as follows: for the period from March 1 to June 1, the feeding regime consists of a blend of 95%stored feed and 5%green chop.During the remainder of the year, cattle are fed a diet that is primarily stored feed.Seventy-three percent of the beef feedlots located within a 50-mile radius of PVNGS are considered to be located in either lj congested areas where public improvements are adversely affected or 2)rural areas where public improvements may be 2.1-31 PVNGS ER-OL GEOGRAPHY AND DEMOGRAPHY adversely affected.It is expected that as Maricopa County becomes increasingly more urbanized, a number of the feedlots will have to be relocated to the strictly rural parts of the county.I 2.

h~'PVNGS ER-OL 2.2 ECOLOGY Baseline information was obtained from published literature,/contacts with regional authorities, and field~urveys.

Detailed seasonal surveys were conducted in 1973-1974 with the results described in ER-CP Section 2.7.Baseline information was also obtained durjpg fall 1977 ecological surveys.In addition, observations of baseline conditions have been made during construction monitoring surveys.Ecological informa-tion presented in the ER-CP is summarized in this section and updated with the additional baseline information gathered during construction.

The PVNGS site is located in the Sonoran Desert section of the Basin and Range Physiographic Province which is characterized by long hot summers, cool winters, and warm springs.Rai'nfall is divided into two well-defined seasons, with winter rains beginning in November and continuing to March, and summer rains occurring in July, August, and Septembe'j.

The basic food chain relationships of the PVNGS ecosystem are depicted in figure 2.2-1.Flora and fauna are considered"important" to the evaluation of the effects of PVNGS if they: 1)are commercially or recre-ationally valuable, 2)are rare or endangered, 3)affect the well-being of some important species within criteria 1 and 2, or 4)are critical to the structure and function of the eco-logical system.2.2.1 VEGETATION Vegetation in the region of the PVNGS site is within the Lower Colorado Subdivision of the Sonoran Desert (see figure 2.2-2).Creosote bush and bur sage are characteristic shrubs.Salt-bush flats typically occur on bottomlands with fine-textured I alkaline soils.Nesguite and the introduced salt cedar are along intermittent and permanent drainages throughout the 2.2-1 PVNGS ER-OL ECOLOGY region.Other prominent plant species onsite are the ephemeral herbaceous forms that occur after substantial rains, and a variety of cacti.The vegetation at the site has experienced various degrees of disturbance prior to construction.

Approximately 50%of the site was agricultural cropland and the other 50%was native vegetation.

The native vegetation types are saltbush plain', creosotebush plain, saltbush/creosotebush plain, mesquite/creosotebush wash, and creosotebush/cacti hill.About 125 vascular plant species observed at PVNGS are listed in table 2.2-1.No federally proposed-threatened or endan-gered plant species have been noted at or near the site.Several species onsite are state-protected under the Arizona, Native'lant Law.These species include all members of thef ly('),'f'h (1 h~amor i), and desert lily Hes erocallis undulata gray).Also protected under the Arizona Native Plant Law'are the following species of live or dead trees, most of which can be d h't.:~~('fl h 1~',~Pb (h d t.'d'h))(1'1 f pl d),'d'loridum (blue palo verde), Parkisonia aculeatal (Jerusalem thorn, long-leaved palo verde), and 0~inc a tesota (ironwood=

tree).2.2.2 FAUNA As many as 240 native vertebrate species and numerous inverte-brates potentially inhabit the site.5lore than 50 of the 137 mammal species in Arizona can inhabit the desert scrub region of Naricopa County, as listed in table 2.2-2.Of these, 29 have been observed on the site.It should be noted that bighorn sheep are not expected dto inhabit 2.2-2 PVNGS ER-OL ECOLOGY the site due to the absence of a suitable habitat.Game mam-mals that have been observed in the PVNGS region are noted in table 2.2-3.Approximately 40%of the 346 bird species known to inhabit Maricopa County are likely to occur in desert scrub habitats similar to those at the PVNGS site.Approximately 80 of these bird species have been observed onsite.Possible and observed bird species at PVNGS are listed in table 2.2-4.The most common resident birds at the site include the sage sparrow, horned lark, the loggerhead shrike, and the cactus wren.Also common at the site are three game species: Gambel's quail, mourning dove, and white-winged dove.Migratory water-fowl and shore birds have been observed onsite when sufficient water is present in the temporary construction reservoir and catch basins associated with PVNGS construction.

Five amphibian and 27 reptile species have been observed onsite, as noted in table 2.2-5.None of the species that has been observed onsite or that is likely to inhabit the site is fed-erally identified as threatened or endangered.

Of the species observed onsite, horned lizards and chuckwallas are state-protected species, and Gila monsters are classified as Group III species (species or subspecies whose status in Arizona may be in jeopardy in the foreseeable future)in Arizona.2~2 3 PVNGS ER-OL ECOLOGY'able 2.2-1 UNCULTIVATED VASCULAR PLANT SPECIES NOTED AT OR NEAR PVNGS (Sheet 1 of 10)Scientific Name Common Life Form(')GRAMINEAE Grass Family Aristida adscensionis L.Bouteloua aristoides (H.B.K.)Griseb.Bouteloua barbata Lag.Bromus arizonicus (shear)stebbins Bromus rubens L.Cynodon dactylon (L.)Pers.Echinochloa colonum (L.O.Link)Eragrostis cilianensis (All.)Link Erioneuron pulchellum (H.B.K.Tateoka (Tridens pulchellus (H.B.K.)Hitch.)Festuca octoflora Walt.Hilaria rigida (Thurb.)Bench.(b)Hordeum sp.Sixweeks Threeawn Grama Grass Sixweeks Grama Arizona Brome Red Brome Bermuda Grass Junglerice Stinkgrass Fluffgrass Sixweeks Fescue Big Galleta Barley AG AG AG AG AG PG AG AG AG PG AG a~b.C.Key to Life Form: AG=Annual Grass PL=Perennial Succulent AH=Annual Herb PS=Perennial Shrub BH=Biennial Herb PT=Perennial Tree PG=Perennial Grass PV=Perennial Vine PH=Perennial Herb Native Arizona plant species recommended for site beau-tification and soil stabilization (Soil Conservation Society of America, 1973).Has not been observed within the boundaries of PVNGS.2.2-4 PVNGS ER-OL ECOLOGY Table 2.2-1 UNCULTIVATED VASCULAR PLANT SPECIES NOTED AT OR NEAR PVNGS'(Sheet 2 of 10)Scientific Name Muhlenbergia microsperma (D.C.)Kunth.Muhlenbergia porteri Scribn.Panicum sp.Poa bigelovii Vasey S Scribn.Polypogon monspeliensis Schismus barbata (L.)theil LORANTHACACEAE Mistletoe Family Phoradendron californicum Nutt.POLYGONACEAE-Buckwheat Family Chorizanthe rigida (Torr.)Torr S Gray Eriogonum inflatum Torr.6 Frem.(b)E.Trichopes Torr.Polygonum aviculare L.CHENOPODIACEAE Goose-foot.

PVNGS ER-OL 2.3 METEOROLOGY Information presented in ER-CP Section 2.6 and the FES is updated in this section to reflect meteorological conditions based on updated regional data and 5 years of onsite monitoring.

2.3.1 REGIONAL CLIMATOLOGY 2.3.1.1 General Climate PVNGS is located in west-central Arizona, a region character-ized by a desert-type climate.This area is in the Inter-Mountain Plateau Climatic zone, the driest region of the United States.Typical characteristics of this large arid region include abundant sunshine, infrequent precipitation, low rela-tive humidities, large diurnal temperature ranges, moderate wind speeds and an occasional intense summer thunderstorm.

The summers are hot and the winters are mild.Table 2.3-1 presents the normals, means, and extremes of clima-tological data.for the National Weather Service (NWS)station at Phoenix,,Arizona

-Sky Harbor International Airport;the most consistent offsite record of meteorological data represen-tative of the PVNGS region.2.3.1.1.1 Types of Air Masses The air masses that dominate the Arizona region are mostly con-tinental in nature.Although the Rocky Mountains to the north normally form an effective barrier against cold Canadian air masses penetrating into Arizona in the winter, occasionally these air masses can influence the weather in the entire state.However, the cold air is somewhat modified if it reaches the central-southwest Arizona area.Air masses approaching from the Pacific Ocean are moist and mild initially on the west coast, but are substantially drier when they reach Arizona 2~3 1 0~~

PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY because of orographic effects when encountering the Sierra Nevada mountain ranges west of Arizona.Moist, tropical (3)air can penetrate into Arizona from the Gulf of Mexico south-east of the state, and more rarely from the southwest off the west coast of Mexico, providing the moisture sources for summer thundershowers and the heaviest precipitation episodes.(4)2.3.1.1.2 Regional Synoptic Features The primary synoptic features that influence the region are associated with the seasonal position and intensity of both a semi-permanent ridge of high pressure off the Pacific West Coast and a semi-permanent high pressure cell protruding into the central part of the United States from the Atlantic Ocean in the summer season.Large scale synoptic storms typically follow a path around the north side of the Pacific high pres-sure ridge, entering the continent in northern Oregon and Washington and producing only partly cloudy and increased wind conditions in Arizona.Displacement of the ridge of Pacific high pressure can cause the storm systems to move southward alongthe west coast, often as far south as San Francisco, before turning inland rather than passing eastward through Oregon and Washington and bring precipitation to the Arizona region.Certain low pressure systems have a tendency to stagnate and intensify off the California coast for several days before moving inland.These storms are fully developed by the time they reach Arizona and can bring intense precipitation.

(3)On occasion, tropical air associated with dying tropical storms and hurricanes that originated off the west coast of Mexico penetrate the state from the Gulf of California and the Pacific Ocean.Once every 4 or 5 years a tropical storm may cross into Arizona, accompanied by gale-force winds and flood-producing rains.2~3 3 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY 2.3.1.1.3 General Airflow Patterns Prevailing winds in the state are strongly influenced by the orientation of the mountain ranges and the local topography.

Ordinarily, if no large-scale weather disturbances are present and the winds in the free atmosphere are light, local and meso-scale wind circulation patterns will dominate.In this situa-tion, the surface wind will blow upslope or upvalley during the daytime, when the air overlying the slope is heated more rapidly than that at the same elevation over the valley.At night, rapid radiational cooling of the air overlying the mountain slopes compared to the slow cooling of the free atmosphere air over the valleys induce downslope or downvalley winds.The primary station for data comparison with the PVNGS site, Phoenix, is located near the center of the Salt River Valley, a broad, relatively flat plain.The valley, in general, is characterized by light winds.Annually, predominant winds are from the east, however, during the spring months, prevailing winds are from the southwest and west associated with the pas-sage of low pressure systems.Throughout the year there are periods, often several days in length, in which winds remain/under 10 miles an hour.The annual mean wind speed at Phoenix-Sky Harbor International Airport is 6.0 mi/h.The prevailing direction is from the east.2.3.1.1.4 Temperature and Humidity Average temperatures throughout the state are dependent on the elevation and also latitude.Great extremes occur between day and night temperatures throughout Arizona.The daily range between maximum and minimum temperatures sometimes runs as high as 50 to 60F during drier portions of the year.The warmest weather in Arizona usually occurs during the last week of June and the first 2 weeks in July.~The site area normally experi-ences temperatures above 100F in the mid-afternoon in the summer 2.3-4 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY and experiences relatively mild winter temperatures.

Harsher winter temperatures characterize the northern, more mountainous,'ortion of the state.Based on the period 1941 to 1970, the normal maximum and mini-mum temperatures at Phoenix are 64.8F and 37:6F in January (the coldest month)and 104.8F and 77.5F in July (the warmest month).The annual normal temperature is 70.3F.The mean number of days per year with maximum temperatures of 90F and above is 165.The mean annual number of days with a minimum temperature of 32F and below is 12.There has never been a reading of below zero recorded in Phoenix.~(2)Seasonally, the highest relative humidity values in Arizona are observed in winter and the lowest values in summer, but when unusually moist tropical air enters the state from the Gulf of Mexico, high relative humidities can occur during July and August.During the period late spring to the fall, rela-tive humidities of 10%or lower are recorded in the mid-afternoon in the southwestern desert regions.At Phoenix, the lowest relative humidities are found in the afternoon hours, corresponding to the maximum daily temperature readings during that time.The highest relative humidities at Phoenix occur shortly before sunrise, corresponding with mini-mum temperature readings.The mean annual average humidity value at Phoenix is 36%, based on four observations per day.(2)2.3.1.1.5 Precipitation The state of Arizona normally experiences two"wet" seasons.The summer wet season occurs during July and August, which are the wettest, months in all parts of Arizona.The winter wet season extends from November or December through the middle of March.The severity of a drought is difficult to assess in southwest Arizona because of already existing extreme dry con-ditions.May and June are the driest months, especially in the 2.3-5 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY desert-type climate of the site region.The heavier.summer precipitation is associated with thundershower activity induced primarily by a flow of moist tropical air from the Gulf of Mexico.Record precipitation amounts in the state have occurred in August and September from tropical flows of moist air from the Gulf of California and Pacific Ocean associated with tropi-cal depressions and hurricanes off the west coast of Mexico.Winter precipitation is generally widespread over the state and is normally of light or moderate intensity.

Greater amounts occur in the higher latitudes, exposed southwest slopes, and higher elevations.

Winter precipitation is heaviest when the middle latitude storm track is unusually far south, so that storms enter Arizona directly from the west or southwest after picking up considerable moisture from the Pacific Ocean.The mean number of days of precipitation of 0.01 inch or more at Phoenix is 34, based on 38 years of data.The normal annual rainfall at Phoenix is 7.05 inches.Snow rarely falls on the desert floor in the site region, but when it.does, the snow usually melts almost as soon as it con-tacts the ground.At Phoenix, trace amounts have been recorded in December-April, with 0.6 inch of snow the maximum monthly recorded amount.2.3.1.1.6 Relationships Between Synoptic and Local Meteorological Conditions The topography of the region strongly influences the meteoro-logical conditions and climate at specific locations within the state of Arizona.The general orientation of topographic features such as mountains with respect to the site of interest and the elevation and exposure of the site itself can result in local wind flows, precipitation amounts, and temperature pat-terns differing substantially from large synoptic-scale condi-tions.The effects of topography on climatological conditions have been discussed in the preceding sections.

PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY 2.3.1.2 Severe Weather 2.3.1.2.1 Hurricanes Most of the record summer rains in the past century in Arizona have been associated with tropical storms moving into the state from the Gulf of California or the Pacific Ocean.These storms, which occur most frequently in late August and September, usually originate as hurricanes off the west, coast of Mexico.As they move northward, they weaken considerably, sometimes to the point of dissipating completely, however, once every 4 or 5 years, a tropical storm may affect Arizona with gale-force winds and flood-producing rains.2.3.1.2.2 Tornadoes In the period January 1950 through December 1977, a total of 23 tornadoes were reported and characterized by the National Severe Storms Forecast Center within a 50-nautical mile radius of PVNGS.This is an average of 0.82 tornadoes per year within this radius.Of the total of 23~tornadoes reported within 50 nautical miles of the site, 18 of these occurred to the east (in the Phoenix area), while the remaining five occurred to the south and south-southwest of the site.No tornadoes were reported within 50 nautical miles northwest of the site region from 1950 to 1977.The spatial differences in the frequency of tornado sightings may possibly be attributed to the higher population density east of the site, and sparsity of population elsewhere.

2.3.1.2.3 Extreme Winds The extreme mile wind speed is defined as the 1-mile passage of wind with the highest speed for the day and includes all meteorological phenomena (extratropical cyclones, thunderstorms, and tropical, cyclones including hurricanes) except, tornadoes.

2~3 7 PVNGS ER-OL: METEOROLOGY The fastest mile wind speed recorded at Phoenix during the 29-year period of record from January 1949 through December 1977 was 86 mi/h (recorded at 36 feet above ground level)which occurred during a thunderstorm in July 1976.2.3.1.2.4 Thunderstorms and Lightning Widespread thundershower occurrence in Arizona is most frequent in the months of July to September.

These thundershowers are most common and most intense over the mountainous sections of the state, where the combined effects of thermal heating and orographic uplift, as well as convergence of air on the windward side of mountain ranges, favor the formation of strong vertical air currents.The mean annual number of days with thunder-storms is 23 for Phoenix, based on a 38-year period of record.The seasonal distribution of the mean number of thunderstorm days at Phoenix is shown in table 2.3-2.Table 2.3-2 also provides estimates of seasonal and annual frequencies of cloud-to-ground lightning calculated based on the mean.number of thunderstorm days at Phoenix.'he site~(2,6)area averages three predicted strikes per square kilometer per year.2.3.1.2.5 Hail, Freezing Rain, and Ice Pellets Hail occurs in the site region primarily during the warmer half of the year, although its occurrence in winter is not unusual, particularly.in southern Arizona.One estimate of the annual mean number of days with hail in the region ranges between 2 and 4.The most destructive hailstorm ever reported in Arizona hit the Phoenix area in the early afternoon of September 18, 1950.Within a period of less than 25 minutes, this storm, accompanied by heavy rain and winds caused almost 1.75 million dollars worth of damage ($680,000 by hail,'554,000 by wind, and$510,000 by rain).From the period 1950 to 1972, property 2.3-8 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY Table 2.3-2 SEASONAL AND ANNUAL FREQUENCIES OF THUNDERSTORM DAYS AND PREDICTED CLOUD-TO-GROUND LIGHTNING FLASHES IN THE VICINITY OF THE PVNGS SITE Season Thunderstorm Predicted Number of Cloud-to Ground Lightning Flashes Per Square Kilometer Winter (Dec, Jan, Feb)Spring (Mar, Apr, May)Summer (June, July, Aug)Fall (Sept, Oct, Nov)Annual 23 a.Based on Phoenix, Arizona LCD(2)and reference 6.and crop losses due to hail have amounted to more than 4 mil-lion dollars.During the period January 1973 to September 1978, one instance of golf ball size hail was reported during a severe thunderstorm about 15 miles south of Sky Harbor Inter-national Airport on July 26, 1978.This storm was also respon-sible for the record highest wind speed (86 mi/h)at the airport.An additional storm, occurring near Stanton (25 miles north of PVNGS)on September 2, 1965, had hailstones'-

with diame-ters up to 1-1/2 inches.The mean annual number of days with glaze (freezing rain)and ice pellets in the region is less than 1.2.3-9 PVNGS'ER-Or.-METEOROLOGY 2.3.1.2.6 Dust and Sand Storms Historical dust storm data for the PVNGS site area were deter-mined from long term records at Phoenix (1956 to 1978).Characteristics of these storms are high w'in'ds, reduced visi-bilities, and increased particulate loading.Dust storms are generally'ssociated with the decaying stages of thunderstorms.

The blowing dust, is due primarily to wind direction shifts and high wind speeds generated by cold air downdrafts from the thunderstorms.

The NWS differentiates between a dust storm, associated with poor visibility (generally less than one-half mile)arising from a high concentration of airborne dust, and blowing dust, which has less severe visibility reductions.

Phoenix averaged nearly four dust storms and over three blow-ing dust events per year during the 1956 to 1978 period.The storms occurred primarily in the summer months, with 79%occur-ring during July and August-the peak months of the thunder-storm season in the Phoenix area.The average duration of dust storms was 48 minutes with a maximum duration of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />."In order to more explicitly characterize dust storms in the immediate PVNGS site area, a monitoring program was conducted at the site.The program was designed to measure total sus-pended particulate concentr'ation and its size distribution during dust storms.Measurements were made at 10, 40, and 75 feet above ground level.The major conclusions of the study were: A.Dust storms are short duration events characterized by extremely high particulate concentrations.

Short term particulate concentrations in excess of 100 mg/m can occur.No apparent variation of mass loading with height was observed;2.3-10 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY B.The size distribution of dust storm particulates i;s greatly biased towards the 20 to 100 micron range.Approximately 60%of the total particulate concentra-tion was in the 20 to 53'icron range and approximately 22%in the 53 to 106 micron range.C.The mass loading during non-dust storm conditions was very low in comparison to dust storm events.A geo-metric mean of 61.3 pg/m was observed during the sea-son of study (June 9 to September 8, 1978).Because higher particulate concentrations are normally measured during summer conditions, a lower annual geometric mean would be expected.A decrease in small-sized particulates concentration with height was also observed for non-dust storm days.A more detailed discussion of the program, its results and gen-eral dust storm characteristics based on long term data from Phoenix is provided in reference 8.2.3.1.2.7 High Air Pollution Potential 1 The frequency of low level inversions is an important considera-tion in determining the dispersion capability of the atmosphere.

The occurrence of low level inversions or isothermal layers based at or below a 500-foot elevation in the site region, is approximately 45%of the total hours on an annual basis.Sea-sonally, the greatest frequency of inversions,.

based on percent of total hours, occur during the winter and is approximately 57%.The summer has the lowest inversion frequency, occurring approximately, 35%of the, time.The majority of these inver-sions are nocturnal in nature.(9)2~3 1 1 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY The mixing height, defined as"the height above the surface through which relatively vigorous vertical mixing occurs," is also a consideration in determining the potential for the atmosphere to disperse pollutants.

The average seasonal and annual mixing heights (based on morning and afternoon measure-ments)for.the site region are as follows: Mean Annual and Seasonal Mixing Heights for the PVNGS Area Mixin Hei ht ft-Winter Spring Summer Fall Annual 2625 4760 5740 3855 4245 2.3.2 LOCAL METEOROLOGY 2.3.2.1 Normal and Extreme Values of Meteorolo ical Parameters Local meteorological data are based on offsite data from Phoenix, Luke Air Force Base, Gila Bend, Buckeye, and Litchfield Park, Arizona and data collected from the onsite meteorological measurements program (see section 6.1.3).Onsite data are available for the 5-year period August 13, 1973 through August 13, 1978.All references to onsite meteorological data are for this data period unless indicated otherwise.

Offsite data are provided for a long term period (5 years or greater).Appropriate data summaries based on Phoenix NWS data are provided in this section and are compared with onsite data.Analysis of the data summaries in this section provide a deter-mination of the representativeness of the onsite meteorological data for the 5-year period with respect to long term conditions 2~3 1 2 PVNGS ER-OL-METEOROLOGY and local meteorological conditions (including.atmospheric diffusion) expected at and in the vicinity of PVNGS.Figure 2.3-1 indicates the location of PVNGS and the meteorologi-cal data collection stations used to assess the local meteo-rology.Table 2.3-3 more specifically pr'ovides the locations and a brief topographical description of the offsite meteo-rological stations.2.3.2.1.1 Wind Direction and Speed Onsite monthly and annual wind roses for the 35-foot and 200-foot level's are presented in figures 2.3-2 through 2.3-6 for the 5-year period August 13, 1973 through August 13, 1978.Wind roses are provided monthly for the 5 years combined as well as annually for each individual year and the 5-year sum-mary.Wind direction distributions are similar for both levels on the tower and for all 5 years of data collection.

Prevailing winds are from the southwesterly sectors on an annual basis and during the spring and summer months.During the fall and winter months, however, prevailing winds are from the east and northeast sectors.Shown in figures 2.3-7 through 2.3-9 are monthly and annual wind roses for Phoenix for the same 5-year period as the onsite data.For comparison to the 5-year period of site data, annual 5-year wind roses for Phoenix (1960 through 1964), Gila Bend (1984 through 1953), and Luke AFB (1960 through 1964)are pre-sented in figure 2.3-10.Comparison of the wind roses for the various time periods and locations shows the topographic influences on predominant wind flows and the inherent differences in wind distributions between the recording stations.Prevailing winds at Phoenix are east and west along the axis of the valley in which the airport and city are situated.The effect of the north-south oriented White Tank Mountains, immediately to the west of Luke AFB, are evident 2%313 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY Table 2.3-3 OFFSITE'ETEOROLOGICAL DATA COLLECTION STATIONS USED TO ASSESS THE LOCAL METEOROLOGY Station'Distance From Site (Miles)Direction Local'Topography Phoenix (Sky Harbor International Airport)Luke Air Force Base Gila Bend Airport Buckeye Litchfield Park 50 33 34 18 32 ENE ENE SSE E ENE Flat;east-west valley Flat;mountains immediately to the west Flat;scattered hj.lls in the area Flat Flat 2.3-14 PVNGS ER-OL METEOROLOGY with the north-south prevailing winds at that site.Gila Bend shows less topographic influences than the other offsite loca-tions with prevailing southwest winds due to the predominant synoptic wind flows in the area.A secondary maximum at Gila Bend of winds from the southeast may be due to the mountain ranges to the south.The 5 years of onsite wind data appears to provide representa-tive wind direction data for long term considerations for the site area.There are small deviations in predominant direc-tional frequencies from year to year at the site or Phoenix for the 5-year period.Comparisons of the two 5-year periods at Phoenix (1960 through 1964 and August 1973 through August 1978)show little difference in the distributions.

Comparisons of onsite and Phoenix monthly and annual average wind speeds are presented in table 2.3-4.The average wind'peed at the 35-foot level for PVNGS was 6.4 mi/h for the 5 years.The 200-foot level average wind speed was higher, as expected, 8.7 mi/h.The Phoenix concurrent 5-year average wind speeds are consistently higher than both the onsite 35-foot level wind speeds and the 29-year climatological average (see table 2.3-1).Average wind speeds for Gila Bend, Phoenix, and Luke AFB for the 5-year periods presented in figure 2.3-10 are 7.7, 6.8, and 6.8 mi/h, respectively.

Data from all locations show the relatively low average wind speeds indicative of wind conditions in the Salt River Valley.The frequency of calm winds is reported in the wind rose fig-ures 2.3-2 through 2.3-10.The 5-year composite for PVNGS indicates 0.16%and 0.07%calms at 35 feet and 200 feet, respectively.

All offsite data collection station summaries indicate a higher frequency of calms than the onsite data.The difference in frequency of calms between PVNGS and the offsite stations is attributed primarily to differences in wind speed sensor thresholds and exposure (see section 6.1.3 regarding instrumentation specification).

Each of the 5 years at, Phoenix had higher average ambient temperatures than the climatological normal, 70F (30-year period, 1941 through 1970).Table 2.3-8 shows the monthly and annual means and extremes of temperature for the entire 5-year period at both PVNGS and Phoenix.Table 2.3-8 indicates a fairly good comparison between the two locations with some large differences in absolute minimum temperatures which are expected due to differences in instru-ment exposure.The highest monthly mean temperature at PVNGS occurred in July (91F).The lowest monthly mean temperature at PVNGS occurred in January (51F).Tables 2.3-1 and 2.3-9 through 2.3-11resent means and extremes of ambient temperature and other meteorological parameters at the offsite locations of Phoenix, Gila Bend, Buckeye, and Litchfield Park, Arizona.There is consistent, agreement.

between the long term data provided in these tables and the 5-year period of site and Phoenix data provided in table 2.3-7.Monthly and annual summaries of dewpoint temperatures for PVNGS and Phoenix are provided in table 2.3-12 for the 5-year period of onsite data.The table shows that relatively low dewpoint temperatures occur at both sites which, when combined with the relatively high ambient temperatures shown in the preceding tables, is indicative of the low relative humidities associated with the general climate of the site area.The annual diurnal at PVNGS for the 5 indicates that the between 3 pm and 6 at about 6 am to 7 pattern of ambient and dewpoint temperature years is provided in table 2.3-13.It warmest part of the day usually occurs pm MST;the coolest, just before sunrise, am MST.2.3.2.1.3 Atmospheric Water Vapor Monthly and annual means of relative humidity for PVNGS and Phoenix are presented in table 2.3-14 for each of the 5 years 2.3-24 Table 2.3-8 PVNGS AND PHOEN1K MONTHLY AND ANNUAL MEANS AND EXTREMES OF TEMPERATURE (August 13, 1973-August 13, 1978)PVNGS Maximum Minimum PHOENIX Maximum Minimum Month Mean Mean~Extreme Mean~b)Extreme Mean MeanExtreme Mean~b)Extreme August September October November December January February March April Mav June July 90 84 72 59 52 51 56 61 67 77 89 91 101 95 85 73-64 64 69 72 79 89 101 101 112 107 99 90 79 81 84 89 97 106 114 ill 78 72 59 46 40 40 43 48 53 62 73 80 63 59 39 30 25 21 30 34 29 43 60 63 92 86 75 63 55 54 59 62 69 78 90 94 105 98 88 76 68 67 72 75 83 93 105 105 116 110 103 93 81 83 88 91 99 110 116 115 80 73 61 49 43 42 45 49 54 63 74 82 69 61 43 33 26 26 31 35 40'45 64 70 Annual 71 83 114 58 21 73 86 116 60.a.Based on hourly observations for both Phoenix and the PVNGS site.b.Mean daily maximum and minimum temperatures.

Minimum relative humidities occur consistently in the summer months with maximums occurring in the winter.The annual.average diurnal variation of relative and absolute humidity at PVNGS is presented in table 2.3-15 for the 5 years.It indicates that the highest relative humidities occurred between 5 am and 8 am MST and that the lowest relative humidities occurred generally between 3 pm and 5 pm MST.Tables 2.3-1 and 2.3-9 through 2.3-11 provide long term monthly means and diurnal variations of relative humidity for Phoenix, Gila Bend, Buckeye, and Litchfield Park, Arizona.These long term means are similar to the 5-year values.2.3.2.1.4 Precipitation Monthly and annual extreme precipitation by time interval are presented in table 2.3-16 for PVNGS for the 5 years of onsite data.It indicates that for the 5 years, the extreme 1-hour precipitation was 0.89 inch and occurred in August 1978.The extreme 24-hour precipitation was 1.95 inches and occurred in September 1974.During the 5-year period, there was only one hourly occurrence of precipitation when the ambient temperature was less than or equal to 32F.Additional information on rainfall rate distributions for PVNGS is presented on an annual basis in table 2.3-17.In table 2.3-18, the extreme 24-hour precipitation for PVNGS is compared to Phoenix for the 5 years of onsite data collec-tion.In table 2.3-19 the monthly

wind roses for PVNGS (35-foot winds)are presented in figures 2.3-12 through 2.3-14 for the 5 years combined.These show the average speed by direction of winds during precipitation events and the percentage of total hours that, precipitation occurs with each wind direction.

Seasonal variations are apparent.On an annual basis, precip-itation frequencies are greatest, for winds from the easterly and southwesterly sectors, and are least frequent for winds out of the west and northwesterly sectors.Concurrent precipitation wind roses from Phoenix are not provided since these data summaries based on every third hour would not be meaningful.

This would be especially true in a desert type climate where precipitation is very infrequent.

The 5 years of onsite data should provide a representative data set.2.3.2.1.5 Natural Fog On the average, there is a low frequency of natural fog in the site region.Phoenix averages only 2 days per year with heavy fog.Because of the low number of occurrences, expected frequencies and durations are not discussed.

2.3.2.1.6 Atmospheric Stability Site atmospheric stability is classified by the vertical temperature gradient, BT(200ft-35ft), in accordance with the position in Regulatory Guide 1.23.The onsite monthly and annual distributions of atmospheric stability classes for PVNGS are presented in table 2.3-20 for the combined 5 years.Table 2.3-21 presents the annual distributions for each of the 5 years.2.3-39 PVNGS ER-OL Table 2.3-20 METEOROLOGY MONTHLY AND ANNUAL FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION OF ATMOSPHERIC STABILITY BASED ON BT(200 Zt-35 Zt)FOR THE PVNGS SITE (t)'August 13 i 1973 August 13 I 1978)Month Stability Category D August September October November December January February March April May June ll.46 6.86 6.40 6.49 4.40 5.90 2.48 3.39 1.94 4.30 2.35 3.16 3.63 5.02 5.70 7.09 9.37 9.98 13.43 9.50 12.95 9.55 14.62 8.21 6.75 5.83 5.96 4.1S 4.88 4.50 7.35 8.29 9.06 8.92 9.14 8.66 20.89 22.26 13.33 18.34 18.60 16.47 18.26 17.60 18.30 14.52 25.25 24.03 24.37 21.17 26.58 17.81 20.88 13.39 ,21.06 11.23 18.44 11.99 22.23 14.75 17.21 17.27 14.62 11.68 13.93 15.36 15.02 14.62 15.58 15.57 17.47 12.62 12.18 19.64 34.84 46.02 44.52 37.65 34.76 23.68 20.93 16.72 18.07 6.60 Annual 7.39 6.64 6.97 21.39 16.2l 15.11 26.29 2.3-40 Table 2.-3-21 ANNUAL PERCENT FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION OF ATMOSPHERIC STABILITY CLASSES BASED ON hT(200 ft-35 ft)FOR THE PVNGS SITE (August 13, 1973 to August 13, 1978)Stability Category D August 13, 1973, to August 13, 1974 (percent)August 13, 1974, to August 13, 1975'percent)

PVNGS ER-OL 2.4 HYDROLOGY 2.4.1 SURFACE WATER Since the ER-CP, new data has been made available that permits a more current.characterization of surface waters in the PVNGS site region.This section has been updated to reflect current data.Surface water information presented in ER-CP Section 2.5 and the FES remains valid with minor updating.The information is summarized and updated in this section.PVNGS is located in the drainage basin of the Centennial Wash, which flows southeasterly into the Gila River.The local watercourses near the site include Winters Wash, which flows southward and parallels the west side of the site boundary, and East Wash, a narrow drainageway that now traverses the east boundary of the site, having been rerouted during construction.

Surface waterflows near the site area are intermittent and of short duration because the flows are mainly caused by storm runoff, which usually occurs from August to September and from December to April.The U.S.Geological Survey (USGS)gage on the Gila River below Gillespie Dam, approximately 15 miles south of the site, shows that the maximum recorded flow (from 1921 to 1977)was 85,000 ft/s on December 28, 1923, and the maximum flow 3 outside the period of record was 250,000 ft/s in February 3 1891.A provisional value of 122,000 ft/s had also been 3 observed on December 20, 1978.Monthly mean flow at the same gage ranges from 7.55 ft/s in June to 584 ft/s in 3 3 March.The maximum recorded discharges (1961 to 1977)in Centennial Wash near Arlington and in Winters Wash near Tonopah were 14,500 ft/s and 3640 ft/s, respectively.

3 3 Surface-water bodies, such as ponds, lakes, and marshes, are not present in the area because of the arid climate, the geological character of surficial materials, and the high potential evaporation rate.2.4-1 PVNGS ER-OL HYDROLOGY The station where surface-water quality samples were taken by the USGS is located at the Gillespie Dam on the Gila River.Its records of 1975, 1976, and 1977 indicate a maximum dissolved solids concentration of 4470 mg/1, a minimum of 195 mg/1, and an average of 3312 mg/1.Temperature variation ranges from 6C in water to 31C in summer.No surface-water streams will receive any liquid effluent from the plant either during construction or normal operation.

The channel of Eash Wash has been routed along the east-side embank-ment.Because East Wash flows only intermittently, there will be no aquatic biological effect because of its relocation.

The relocation of East Wash will have an insignificant effect on local vegetation.

2.4.2 GROUNDWATER Groundwater information presented in ER-CP Section 2.5 and the FES remains valid and is updated by information from the addi-tional wells, as summarized in this section.Since the ER-CP, additional exploratory borings and groundwater observation wells have been constructed onsite to supplement the data base relative to groundwater conditions encountered at PVNGS.These borings permit a better characterization of subsurface stratig-raphy and groundwater conditions, including those resulting from the cessation of irrigation, within the site area.2.4.2.1 H dro colo ic Settin The hydrogeologic profile of the site area is defined by three major sedimentary units, each having, distinctly different litho-logic and hydrologic characteristics.

These units, found in (1)I most central Arizona water basins, are identify'.ed as--a.Upper alluvial unit b.Middle fine-grained unit c.Lower coarse-grained unit 2.4-2 PVNGS ER-OL HYDROLOGY The generalized hydrogeologic profile of the site area is depicted in figure 2.4-1.A description of the sediments as they relate to the groundwater regime of the site is presented in the following sections.2.4.2.1.1 Upper Alluvial Unit This unit consists of primarily silty and gravelly sands of varying proportions with interlayered, discontinuous lenses of clays and silty clays.This unit extends to a depth of about 30 to 60 feet, beneath the site.The permeability of the upper alluvial unit soils was determined by inflow and outflow (pumping)type field tests.The typical horizontal permeabil-ity of these deposits is about 10 gal/d/ft (5 x 10 cm/s).Because of the extensive stratification, the vertical permea-b'lity can be expected to be significantly lower than the horizontal permeability.

2.4.2.1.2 Middle Fine-Grained Unit This unit consists of massive, continuous layers of clays and silty clays, interbedded with thinner layers and scattered lenses of clayey silt, clayey sand, and silty sand.The thick-ness of the unit is about 250 feet.A structure contour map of the top of the middle fine-grained unit is presented in figure 2.4-2.The permeability characteristics of soils in the upper portion of the unit were evaluated by both labora-tory and field tests.The vertical permeability, determined 2 by laboratory tests, is on the order of 0.001 gal/d/ft (5 x 10 cm/s).The horizontal permeability, determined by field tests, is approximately one order of magnitude higher.The permeability characteristics of the Palo Verde Clay were evaluated only by laboratory tests.Measured permeabilities in the vertical and horizontal directions are on the order of 0.0005 gal/d/ft (2.5 x l0 cm/s)and 0.01 gal/d/ft 2 (5 x 10 cm/s), respectively.

2.4-3 PVNGS ER-OL HYDROLOGY 2.4.2.1.3 Lower Coarse-Grained Unit In general, the lower coarse-grained u'nit is described as a"variably cemented conglomerate which lies directly on the undifferentiated basement complex." In the si'te area, the ir (1)lower coarse-grained unit, consists of a tilted interbedded sequence of volcanic flows and flow breccias, tuffs, tuffa-ceous sandstones, and coarse-grained arkosic sandstone.

The permeability of the regional aquifer was assessed by review-ing irrigation well-pumping records and performing an aqui-fer pumping test.Yields from irrigation wells that tap the regional aquifer range from 400 to 2800 gal/min.The average specific capacity is 35 gal/min/ft of drawdown.The aquifier pumping test, performed on an existing irrigation well (B-1-6j 34 abb, resulted in a calculated transmissivity of 100,000-3 gal/d/ft and a storage coefficient of 5 x 10.The pump-ing rate during the test was 2360 gal/min.2.4.2.2 Groundwater Conditions In the site area, the groundwater reservoir consists of an extensive regional aquifer and a local perched-water zone.The lower coarse-grained unit, described previously, consti-tutes the regional aquifer that extends to over 400 square miles.The primary recharge source to the regional aquifer in the site area is underflow from the Upper Hassayampa Valley north of the site area.The general flow direction is north to south.Reversal of flow direction occurs locally where the groundwater levels are depressed because of pumping for irrigation.

Infiltration of precipitation, surface runoff, and return flow from irrigation in the vicinity of the site constitute a small portion of the total recharge of the regional aquifer.Discharge from the regional groundwater reservoir occurs as underflow to Arlington Valley (to the 2.4-4 PVNGS ER-OL HYDROLOGY south of the site)and pumpage from irrigation wells.Piezo-metric levels in the vicinity of the site area are at depths ranging from 100 to 250 feet below the ground surface.A water-level contour map of the regional aquifer in the Lower (2)Hassayampa-Centennial area is presented in,figure 2.4-3.The most conspicuous hydrological features indicated by the water level contours are the large cone of depression beneath the site and a broader but shallower cone of depression south of the site.A smaller cone of depression also occurs immediately north of the Palo Verde Hills.The cones of depression have been formed by long-term pumpage from irriga-tion wells in the area.Artesian conditions prevail within the aquifer in the site area.Confinement is generally provided by the middle fine-grained layer.The Palo Verde site is situated in an area that was under cul-tivation from about, 1950 to late 1975.Water for crop irriga-.tion was pumped from the regional aquifer.Most of the water was consumed by the crops (primarily cotton).The remainder of the water percolated through the upper alluvial sediments and perched on top of the underlying aquitard (middle fine-grained unit.).The shape of the perched mound i's consistent with the shape of the irrigated area within the site.(See figure 2.4-4.)Water-table conditions prevail within the perched-water zone.During the 25-year period of agri-cultural activity at the site, the prime source of recharge of the perched-water, zone was excess irrigation water that percolated through the upper sediments.

Since 1975, when agricultural activity stopped within the site, the only-source of recharge has been precipitation and surface runoff.However, as evidenced by the sharp decline in perched-water levels since 1975 (3 ft/yr average), local nature recharge is insufficient to maintain the perched mound.The decay of the perched-water mound is caused mainly by radial 2.4-5 PVNGS ER-OL HYDROLOGY flow outward from the center of the mound and downward leakage through the aquitard.2.4.2.3 Sources Water for irrigation is the major use of groundwater in the Lower Hassayampa-Centennial area.An average of 78,000 acre-ft/yr was pumped during the period 1966 through 1972.A steady rate of decline of the water levels in the area began about 1950 because of the increase in pumping of groundwater for agriculture.

The water level has declined by as much as 100 feet near the centers of cones of depression during the past 20 years.The water-level decline is attributed to the pumping of wells and the resultant spread of the cones of depression and consequent interference effects between wells.During the 25-year period of agricultural activity at the site (1950 to 1975), water was pumped heavily from the regional aquifer, resulting in the localized depression of water levels shown in figure 2.4-3.The'locations of irrigation wells in the site area and its vicinity are shown in figure 2.4-5.In 1972, four existing irrigation wells within the PVNGS property yielded a total of 7542 acre-ft of water.The site.wells yielded a total average of 6000 acre-ft/yr from 1966 through 1972.Most of the water (83 percent)was pumped from wells (B-1-6)34 abb and 34 acc.Irrigation stopped in late 1975, a few months prior to the start of construction.

Well (B-1-6)34 abb has been used since as the primary well for construction water supply, with (B-1-6)27 ddc as the backup well.During the period 1976 through 1978, the combined pumping rate of these two wells has been about 350 acre-ft/yr (see table 2.4-1.)This quantity corresponds to approximately one-twentieth of the annual groundwater withdrawal from onsite wells during the last few years of irrigation.

However, the absence of fecal coliforms indicated that the coliforms occurring in these well samples were most likely of nonfecal origin.The standard plate counts from these wells were relatively low.Thus,'although the bacteriological quality of these wells appears relatively good, treatment of these waters would be necessary for their use for domestic supplies.During the four sampling periods at the four wells, three wells consistently exceeded the-USPHS recommended limiting concentra-tions for chloride, phenols, and total dissolved solids, and in one well the concentrations of phenols and total dissolved solids generally exceeded the recommended limits.The,concen-tration of arsenic exceeded the recommended limit twice in one well.The concentration of fluoride generally exceeded the maximum permissible limits in the four wells, and the concentration of cadmium equaled the limit once in one well.On the basis of the maximum permissible limit defined by the USPHS, the only significant hazardous factor related to drinking-water quality in these wells is fluoride.The water samples from ll wells collected by the USGS in the general Lower Hassayampa-Centennial area indicate that the range of specific conductance is from 290 to 6000 mhos and the range of temperature is from 20C to 48C.2.4-8 PVNGS ER-OL HYDROLOGY REFERENCES U.S.Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region,"Geology and Groundwater Resources Report, Maricopa and Pinal Counties, Arizona," October 1977.Stulik, R.S.,"Groundwater Conditions in the Lower Hassayampa Area, Maricopa County, Arizona," Arizona Water Commission Bulletin No.S, August 1974.2.4-9 C<<<<M 875 000 I M 870 000~~~~~~~0~~~~E I.~RE TO AIIE R R,/o o 0<o I I I" I I o o EXPLANATION

The distribution of those units areally and in section are shown in figures 2.5-1 and 2.5-2, respectively.

2.5-1 PVNGS ER-OL GEOLOGY The units are described in the stratigraphic chart of the site area (figure 2.5-3).2.5.2.1 Basement Rocks Precambrian granitic and metamorphic rocks are not exposed at the ground surface but are known to exist in the subsurface from exploratory borings at depths ranging from 300 feet to 400 feet.2.5.2.2 Bedrock Surface exposures.

of bedrock in the Palo Verde Hills are.pre-dominantly Miocene volcanic rocks with localized interbedded sequences of water-laid tuffs and sandstone.

Potassium-argon ages on these volcanic rocks range from 17.7 to 20.3 million years.2.5.2.3 Basin Sediments Basin sediments at the site have been divided into six strati-graphic units (see figure 2.5-3).In order of decreasing age these are the following units:~Tertiary indurated fanglomerate (LZ-1)'Lower silt and lower sand and gravel deposits (LZ-2)~Palo Verde Clay (LZ-3)~Silty clay deposit (LZ-4)~Upper sand and gravel deposit (LZ-5)~Younger fan deposits (LZ-6)F The average thickness of the alluvial sequence (LZ-2 through LZ-5)above the indurated fanglomerate (LZ-1)is approximately 320 feet with a variation of thickness of approximately 100 feet.The stratigraphic units within the alluvial sequence are continuous across the site and generally continuous for several miles beyond the site boundaries.

2.5-2 PVNGS ER-OL;GEOLOGY The Palo Verde Clay (LZ-3)is the most distinctive strati-graphic unit in the all'uyial sequence.This unit demonstrates exceptional continuity.

within the site and up to 5 miles south-east,and 5 miles northeast of the.site.The upper contact of unit LZ-4 is well defined throughout the site using borehole data and geologic mapping data from the Units 1, 2, and 3 powerblock excavations.

In many areas of the site-contact was,characterized from numerous closely spaced borings.2.5.2.4.Structure The Palo Verde Hills are a part of a regional positive struc-tural block that includes Saddle Mountain, Gila Bend Mountains, Buckeye Hills, an'd the White Tank Mountains.

~(1)Bedrock structure at the site includes stratification, possi-ble minor folding, and faulting.The dominant structure of the Palo Verde Hills area is a homocline with the volcanic flow bedding dipping 15 to 40 degrees southwest (figure 2.4-1).T Detailed mapping in the Palo Verde Hills has revealed only one small fault approximately 3 miles west of the site area.This fault displaces Miocene volcanic rocks.The fault trends beneath the Tertiary indurated fanglomerate (LZ-1)but does not displace it.s The structure of the basin sediments covering the site area was carefully analyzed to determine the tectonic history of the Palo Verde Hills area during the Pliocene and Pleistocene.

The Palo Verde Clay, the most distinctive unit in the alluvial t sequence, was traced continuously in closely spaced borings (<100 feet, apart)in the site specific (powerblock) areas, in boring approximately 2500 feet apart across the site, 5 miles to the southeast under the Arlington basalt flow, and 5 miles to the northeast of the site (see figure 2.5-2).The 2:5-3 PVNGS ER-OL GEOLOGY Arlington basalt has been dated by potassium-argon techniques at approximately 2 milli'on years old.Therefore, the Palo Verde Clay is older, and has been estimated by paleomagnetic techniques to possibly be 2.8 million years old.There is no evidence of faulting or folding in the Palo Verde Clay, and no indication of any major tectonic activity in this area since at least late Pliocene time.Ground surface deformation associated with natural or man-induced phenomena, such as the formation of salt bodies or subsidence, does not affect the PVNGS site.Subsidence or subsidence cracks due to withdrawal of groundwater during 25 years of irrigation have not been observed or reported during the investigations at the site.The site area was formerly under cultivation and irrigation through August 1975 when all agricultural activity at the PVNGS site ceased.2.5.3 SEISMIC HISTORY The site is in an area of low historic seismicity.

No epicen-ters of earthquakes, magnitude 4 or greater, have been reported within a 65-mile radius of the site.Five epicenters of earth-quakes less than magnitude 4 have occurred within about 50 miles of the site.Figure 2.5-4 presents an updated map that details recorded epicenter locations and seismic zones in the site region.Refer to FSAR Section 2.5.2.1 for a detailed descrip-tion of regional seismicity.
