UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Troy Adams, P.E. - General Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 1.3 SUBJECT: Recognition of the 70th Anniversary of the Utilities Commission ACTION REQUESTED: Chair Dietz to read the resolution creating a Utilities Commission DISCUSSION: The creation of the electric distribution utility that is now part of ERMU dates back to 1915 when a private business person secured financing to start Elk River Power & Light. This business was purchased by the Village of Elk River in 1945 at which time the operation was directly overseen by the Council. In February, 1947, the Council accepted the resignation of Ward Holsbo, the utility’s superintendent. The loss of his institutional knowledge and the growing complexity of the business contributed to the Council evaluation of their responsibility to oversee the operation. Shortly thereafter on July 11, 1947, the Council created through statutory authority the Water, Light, Power, and Building Commission which is now known as the ERMU Commission. The complexities of the electric industry have continued to grow since 1947. The addition of responsibility to oversee the water distribution system and to provide billing services for all City services have added to the complexity of ERMU’s operation, now nearly $40,000,000 per year. The Commission has committed that it will govern as a body that understands its obligations to the owners and other stakeholders of the ERMU electric and water utility enterprises; and has committed that their principal purpose is to ensure that ERMU achieves appropriate results for its owners, customers, employees, and other stakeholders at an appropriate cost, while avoiding unacceptable actions and situations. And the Commission has committed to govern in a manner consistent with the ERMU mission to: Provide our customers with safe, reliable, cost effective and quality long term electric and water utility service. To communicate and educate our customers in use of utility services, programs, policies, and future plans. These products and services will be provided in an environmentally and financially responsible manner. The community which is served by ERMU owes a debt of gratitude to the ERMU Commissioners of the past, present, and future for their ongoing commitment and effort. And it shall be recognized that on this date the ERMU Commission celebrates their 70th anniversary.

POLICY & COMPLIANCE

4.1

Bylaws and Delegation to Management Policies Mr. Adams presented the proposed bylaws and stated that staff had worked with ERMU’s legal counsel to draft the updated bylaws. The bylaws were revised with the intent to simplify yet be specific about the source and limit of the ERMU Commission’s authority. Also presented for consideration were the first four delegation to management policies that consultant John Miner had developed. Mr. Adams stated that staff had the opportunity to work through all of the policies and had also vetted them with Attorney Beck. Attorney Beck concurred and stated that they were good to go.

Moved by Commissioner Stewart and seconded by Commissioner Nadeau to adopt the Bylaws and Delegation to Management Policies. Motion carried 5-0.

BUSINESS ACTION

5.1

Financial Report – April 2017 Ms. Slominski presented the April 2017 financial report. For the electric statement, Commissioner Stewart asked for further clarification as to how the CIP rebates are processed and the timing of the rebate payments. Mr. Sagstetter went through the rebate process and explained that the CIP credit balance of approximately $12,000 reflects rebate dollars we’ve

Page 3

Regular Meeting of the Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission June 13, 2017 35

received from Great River Energy (GRE) that are waiting to be paid out to the customer once all their paperwork is complete. Chair Dietz asked if the process would be similar once we switch over to Minnesota Municipal Power Agency (MMPA). Mr. Sagstetter explained that the process will be relatively the same with the exception of having to budget for our own rebates. There was discussion. For the water statement, Commissioner Stewart asked what the $5,000 loss on disposition of property was for. Ms. Slominski responded that she believed it was for an asset that was retired, but she would need to clarify that and get back to the Commission. Moved by Commissioner Nadeau and seconded by Commissioner Stewart to approve the April 2017 Financial Report. Motion carried 5-0. 5.2

Load Management Transition Plan Update Mr. Sagstetter informed the Commission that staff has been working internally, and with Dave Berg Consulting, LLC, to determine a cost effective way to transition from direct load control programs to behavior driven programs utilizing time of use (TOU) rates. Before developing customer communication material, staff is looking for Commission consensus on the load management transition plan for each of the programs that ERMU currently has customers participating in. Mr. Sagstetter walked through the load management transition plan as outlined in his memo. He explained that in an effort to incentivize customers to convert from direct load control to TOU rates, ERMU will offer a rebate towards the purchase and installation of a WIFI compatible thermostat. In addition, ERMU would also install a new TOU meter for each customer that converts over to the TOU rate. Mr. Sagstetter went over the financial impact associated with the meter conversion. Commissioner Stewart asked if we would be able to capitalize the meters. Staff responded that we would. After discussion, Commission consensus was to move forward with the load management transition plan as presented.

6.0 BUSINESS DISCUSSION 6.1

Staff Updates Mr. Adams shared that he attended the Great River Energy Annual Meeting and provided an overview of the meeting and the take away message. He also shared that wholesale power rate increases for the foreseeable future are projected to be in-line or under inflation. Mr. Fuchs provided details on the recent outages resulting from the storms that came through on Sunday, June 10. He stated that besides losing three feeders, a majority of the problems were due to trees coming down onto the power lines. It took crews approximately four hours to restore power to the 950 customers that were affected. Mr. Fuchs shared that once we had our situation under control, we dispatched two crews to help out Connexus Energy as part of our mutual aid agreement.

Page 4

Regular Meeting of the Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission June 13, 2017 36

There was discussion. Commissioner Stewart mentioned that she had reported an outage to our afterhours call center about a week ago and that they had asked her if she would like an automated phone call once power had been restored; although she had requested one, she stated that she never received that call. Staff indicated that they would look into this further. Chair Dietz inquired as to whether the locating situation was getting under control. Mr. Tietz stated that it was a good thing that we approved hiring a second locator. He explained that although they are still extremely busy, they’re staying on top of things. 6.2

Future Planning There was no future planning.

DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES – DIVISION OF ECOLOGICAL AND WATER RESOURCES AND METROPOLITAN COUNCIL INTRODUCTION TO WATER SUPPLY PLANS (WSP) Who needs to complete a Water Supply Plan Public water suppliers serving more than 1,000 people, and large private water suppliers in designated Groundwater Management Areas, and all water suppliers in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, are required to prepare and submit a water supply plan. The goal of the WSP is to help water suppliers: 1) implement long term water sustainability and conservation measures; and 2) develop critical emergency preparedness measures. Your community needs to know what measures will be implemented in case of a water crisis. A lot of emergencies can be avoided or mitigated if long term sustainability measures are implemented.

Groundwater Management Areas (GWMA) The DNR has designated three areas of the state as Groundwater Management Areas (GWMAs) to focus groundwater management efforts in specific geographies where there is an added risk of overuse or water quality degradation. A plan directing the DNRs actions within each GWMA has been prepared. Although there are no specific additional requirements with respect to the water supply planning for communities within designated GWMAs, communities should be aware of the issues and actions planned if they are within the boundary of one of the GWMAs. The three GWMAs are the North and East Metro GWMA (Twin Cities Metro), the Bonanza Valley GWMA and the Straight River GWMA (near Park Rapids). Additional information and maps are included in the DNR webpage at http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/gwmp/areas.html

Benefits of completing a WSP Completing a WSP using this template, fulfills a water supplier’s statutory obligations under M.S. M.S.103G.291 to complete a water supply plan. For water suppliers in the metropolitan area, the WSP will help local governmental units to fulfill their requirements under M.S. 473.859 to complete a local comprehensive plan. Additional benefits of completing WSP template:      

The standardized format allows for quicker and easier review and approval Help water suppliers prepare for droughts and water emergencies. Create eligibility for funding requests to the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) for the Drinking Water Revolving Fund. Allow water suppliers to submit requests for new wells or expanded capacity of existing wells. Simplify the development of county comprehensive water plans and watershed plans. Fulfill the contingency plan provisions required in the MDH wellhead protection and surface water protection plans.

 

 

Fulfill the demand reduction requirements of Minnesota Statutes, section 103G.291 subd 3 and 4. Upon implementation, contribute to maintaining aquifer levels, reducing potential well interference and water use conflicts, and reducing the need to drill new wells or expand system capacity. Enable DNR to compile and analyze water use and conservation data to help guide decisions. Conserve Minnesota’s water resources

If your community needs assistance completing the Water Supply Plan, assistance is available from your area hydrologist or groundwater specialist, the MN Rural Waters Association circuit rider program, or in the metropolitan area from Metropolitan Council staff. Many private consultants are also available.

WSP Approval Process 10 Basic Steps for completing a 10-Year Water Supply Plan 1. Download the DNR/Metropolitan Council Water Supply Plan Template www.mndnr.gov/watersupplyplans 2. Save the document with a file name with this naming convention: WSP_cityname_permitnumber_date.doc. 3. The template is a form that should be completed electronically. 4. Compile the required water use data (Part 1) and emergency procedures information (Part 2) 5. The Water Conservation section (Part 3) may need discussion with the water department, council, or planning commission, if your community does not already have an active water conservation program. 6. Communities in the seven-county Twin Cities metropolitan area should complete all the information discussed in Part 4. The Metropolitan Council has additional guidance information on their webpage http://www.metrocouncil.org/Handbook/Plan-Elements/WaterResources/Water-Supply.aspx. All out-state water suppliers do not need to complete the content addressed in Part 4. 7. Use the Plan instructions and Checklist document to insure all data is complete and attachments are included. This will allow for a quicker approval process. www.mndnr.gov/watersupplyplans 8. Plans should be submitted electronically – no paper documents are required. https://webapps11.dnr.state.mn.us/mpars/public/authentication/login 9. DNR hydrologist will review plans (in cooperation with Metropolitan Council in Metro area) and approve the plan or make recommendations. 10. Once approved, communities should complete a Certification of Adoption form, and send a copy to the DNR.

D. Future Demand Projections – Key Metropolitan Council Benchmark Water Use Trends Use the data in Table 2 to describe trends in 1) population served; 2) total per capita water demand; 3) average daily demand; 4) maximum daily demand. Then explain the causes for upward or downward trends. For example, over the ten years has the average daily demand trended up or down? Why is this occurring? Over the last ten years the average daily demand has trended up slightly. I believe this is due in part to the number of commercial customers we have had move into our service area. Our per capita demand has been almost cut in half over the last ten years, with our population doubling in the same time period. Our maximum daily demand has more or less remained steady over the last ten years.

Use the water use trend information discussed above to complete Table 7 with projected annual demand for the next ten years. Communities in the seven-county Twin Cities metropolitan area must also include projections for 2030 and 2040 as part of their local comprehensive planning. Projected demand should be consistent with trends evident in the historical data in Table 2, as discussed above. Projected demand should also reflect state demographer population projections and/or other planning projections. Table 7. Projected annual water demand

Projection Method Describe the method used to project water demand, including assumptions for population and business growth and how water conservation and efficiency programs affect projected water demand: The Projected Total Per Capita Water Demand was calculated with a target goal of 75 GPD per person in the year 2040. Trends in the last ten years have been steadily decreasing. To project the Average Daily Demand the Projected Population was multiplied by the Projected Total Per Capita Water Demand. The ten year trend for Average Daily Demand has slowly increased. To project the Maximum Daily Demand the 2015 Maximum Pumping day was divided by the current population. The ratio was 190% for the current population of 23,172. Then, 190% was multiplied by the Projected Population for each year to give the Projected Maximum Daily Demand. The ten years trends for Maximum Daily Demand are not reliable due to growth and excessive loss.

Potential Water Supply Issues & Natural Resource Impacts – Key DNR & Metropolitan Council Benchmark Complete Table 10 by listing the types of natural resources that are or could be impacted by permitted water withdrawals. If known, provide the name of specific resources that may be impacted. Identify what the greatest risks to the resource are and how the risks are being assessed. Identify any resource protection thresholds – formal or informal – that have been established to identify when actions should be taken to mitigate impacts. Provide information about the potential mitigation actions that may be taken, if a resource protection threshold is crossed. Add additional rows to the table as needed. See the glossary at the end of the template for definitions.

Part 2. Emergency Preparedness Procedures The emergency preparedness procedures outlined in this plan are intended to comply with the contingency plan provisions required by MDH in the WHP and SWP. Water emergencies can occur as a result of vandalism, sabotage, accidental contamination, mechanical problems, power failings, drought, flooding, and other natural disasters. The purpose of emergency planning is to develop emergency response procedures and to identify actions needed to improve emergency preparedness. In the case of a municipality, these procedures should be in support of, and part of, an all-hazard emergency operations plan. Municipalities that already have written procedures dealing with water emergencies should review the following information and update existing procedures to address these water supply protection measures.

A. Federal Emergency Response Plan Section 1433(b) of the Safe Drinking Water Act, (Public Law 107-188, Title IV- Drinking Water Security and Safety) requires community water suppliers serving over 3,300 people to prepare an Emergency Response Plan. Do you have a federal emergency response plan? Yes If yes, what was the date it was certified? September 2006 Complete Table 15 by inserting the noted information regarding your completed Federal Emergency Response Plan. Table 15. Emergency Preparedness Plan contact information

B. Operational Contingency Plan All utilities should have a written operational contingency plan that describes measures to be taken for water supply mainline breaks and other common system failures as well as routine maintenance. Do you have a written operational contingency plan? -Yes At a minimum, a water supplier should prepare and maintain an emergency contact list of contractors and suppliers.

C. Emergency Response Procedures Water suppliers must meet the requirements of MN Rules 4720.5280 . Accordingly, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) requires public water suppliers serving more than 1,000 people 23

63

to submit Emergency and Conservation Plans. Water emergency and conservation plans that have been approved by the DNR, under provisions of Minnesota Statute 186 and Minnesota Rules, part 6115.0770, will be considered equivalent to an approved WHP contingency plan.

Current Water Sources and Service Area Quick access to concise and detailed information on water sources, water treatment, and the distribution system may be needed in an emergency. System operation and maintenance records should be maintained in secured central and back-up locations so that the records are accessible for emergency purposes. A detailed map of the system showing the treatment plants, water sources, storage facilities, supply lines, interconnections, and other information that would be useful in an emergency should also be readily available. It is critical that public water supplier representatives and emergency response personnel communicate about the response procedures and be able to easily obtain this kind of information both in electronic and hard copy formats (in case of a power outage). Do records and maps exist?  Yes Can staff access records and maps from a central secured location in the event of an emergency?  Yes Does the appropriate staff know where the materials are located?  Yes Procedure for Augmenting Water Supplies Complete Tables 16 – 17 by listing all available sources of water that can be used to augment or replace existing sources in an emergency. Add rows to the tables as needed. In the case of a municipality, this information should be contained in a notification and warning standard operating procedure maintained by the warning point for that community. Municipalities are encouraged to execute cooperative agreements for potential emergency water services and copies should be included in Appendix 6. Outstate Communities may consider using nearby high capacity wells (industry, golf course) as emergency water sources. WSP should include information on any physical or chemical problems that may limit interconnections to other sources of water. Approvals from the MDH are required for interconnections or the reuse of water. GPM – Gallons per minute MGD – million gallons per day Table 16.

On an emergency basis, water could be hauled into Elk River from other cities such as Ramsey, Otsego, Big Lake and Zimmerman by tanker. If bottled water was to be distributed, the Elk River Emergency Operations Center would be activated to assist in the distribution of bottled water. Any support required from the Minnesota National Guard would be coordinated through the State Duty Officer.

Allocation and Demand Reduction Procedures Complete Table 18 by adding information about how decisions will be made to allocate water and reduce demand during an emergency. Provide information for each customer category, including its priority ranking, average day demand, and demand reduction potential for each customer category. Modify the customer categories as needed, and add additional lines if necessary. Water use categories should be prioritized in a way that is consistent with Minnesota Statutes 103G.261 (#1 is highest priority) as follows: 1. Water use for human needs such as cooking, cleaning, drinking, washing and waste disposal; use for on-farm livestock watering; and use for power production that meets contingency requirements. 2. Water use involving consumption of less than 10,000 gallons per day (usually from private wells or surface water intakes) 3. Water use for agricultural irrigation and processing of agricultural products involving consumption of more than 10,000 gallons per day (usually from private high-capacity wells or surface water intakes) 4. Water use for power production above the use provided for in the contingency plan. 5. All other water use involving consumption of more than 10,000 gallons per day. 6. Nonessential uses – car washes, golf courses, etc. Water used for human needs at hospitals, nursing homes and similar types of facilities should be designated as a high priority to be maintained in an emergency. Lower priority uses will need to address water used for human needs at other types of facilities such as hotels, office buildings, and manufacturing plants. The volume of water and other types of water uses at these facilities must be carefully considered. After reviewing the data, common sense should dictate local allocation priorities to protect domestic requirements over certain types of economic needs. Water use for lawn sprinkling, vehicle washing, golf courses, and recreation are legislatively considered non-essential. 26

Tip: Calculating Emergency Demand Reduction Potential The emergency demand reduction potential for all uses will typically equal the difference between maximum use (summer demand) and base use (winter demand). In extreme emergency situations, lower priority water uses must be restricted or eliminated to protect priority domestic water requirements. Emergency demand reduction potential should be based on average day demands for customer categories within each priority class. Use the tables in Part 3 on water conservation to help you determine strategies. Complete Table 19 by selecting the triggers and actions during water supply disruption conditions. Table 19.

Enforcement Prior to a water emergency, municipal water suppliers must adopt regulations that restrict water use and outline the enforcement response plan. The enforcement response plan must outline how conditions will be monitored to know when enforcement actions are triggered, what enforcement tools will be used, who will be responsible for enforcement, and what timelines for corrective actions will be expected. Affected operations, communications, and enforcement staff must then be trained to rapidly implement those provisions during emergency conditions. Important Note: Disregard of critical water deficiency orders, even though total appropriation remains less than permitted, is adequate grounds for immediate modification of a public water supply authority’s water use permit (2013 MN Statutes 103G.291)

Does the city have a critical water deficiency restriction/official control in place that includes provisions to restrict water use and enforce the restrictions? (This restriction may be an ordinance, rule, regulation, policy under a council directive, or other official control) Yes If yes, attach the official control document to this WSP as Appendix 7. If no, the municipality must adopt such an official control within 6 months of submitting this WSP and submit it to the DNR as an amendment to this WSP. Irrespective of whether a critical water deficiency control is in place, does the public water supply utility, city manager, mayor, or emergency manager have standing authority to implement water restrictions? Yes If yes, cite the regulatory authority reference: City of Elk River Code Section 78-51 – Water Use Restrictions.

Priority 2: Slight water reduction, low costs (low hanging fruit)

Priority 2: Significant water reduction; significant costs

Priority 3: Slight water reduction, significant costs (do only if necessary)

Minnesotans have historically benefited from the state’s abundant water supplies, reducing the need for conservation. There are however, limits to the available supplies of water and increasing threats to the quality of our drinking water. Causes of water supply limitation may include: population increases, economic trends, uneven statewide availability of groundwater, climatic changes, and degraded water quality. Examples of threats to drinking water quality include: the presence of contaminant plumes from past land use activities, exceedances of water quality standards from natural and human sources, contaminants of emerging concern, and increasing pollutant trends from nonpoint sources.

There are many incentives for conserving water; conservation:  reduces the potential for pumping-induced transfer of contaminants into the deeper aquifers, which can add treatment costs  reduces the need for capital projects to expand system capacity  reduces the likelihood of water use conflicts, like well interference, aquatic habitat loss, and declining lake levels  conserves energy, because less energy is needed to extract, treat and distribute water (and less energy production also conserves water since water is use to produce energy)  maintains water supplies that can then be available during times of drought It is therefore imperative that water suppliers implement water conservation plans. The first step in water conservation is identifying opportunities for behavioral or engineering changes that could be made to reduce water use by conducting a thorough analysis of:  Water use by customer  Extraction, treatment, distribution and irrigation system efficiencies  Industrial processing system efficiencies  Regulatory and barriers to conservation  Cultural barriers to conservation  Water reuse opportunities Once accurate data is compiled, water suppliers can set achievable goals for reducing water use. A successful water conservation plan follows a logical sequence of events. The plan should address both conservation on the supply side (leak detection and repairs, metering), as well as on the demand side (reductions in usage). Implementation should be conducted in phases, starting with the most obvious and lowest-cost options. In some cases one of the early steps will be reviewing regulatory constraints to water conservation, such as lawn irrigation requirements. Outside funding and grants may be available for implementation of projects. Engage water system operators and maintenance staff and customers in brainstorming opportunities to reduce water use. Ask the question: “How can I help save water?”

Progress since 2006 Is this your community’s first Water Supply Plan? Yes If yes, describe conservation practices that you are already implementing, such as: pricing, system improvements, education, regulation, appliance retrofitting, enforcement, etc. 30

ERMU has implemented an inclining rate structure. We also have a rebate program for SMART irrigation controllers, and programs for commercial customers to receive a rebate if they do a number of landscaping projects that promote water conservation. On a scheduled rotation we also will facilitate the sale of rain barrels for our customers to purchase from ERMU at a cheaper rate than they can purchase from a retailer. The city has adopted a sprinkling ordinance. It is an odd/even ordinance If no, complete Table 21 to summarize conservation actions taken since the adoption of the 2006 water supply plan. Table 21.

B. Conservation Objectives and Strategies – Key benchmark for DNR This section establishes water conservation objectives and strategies for eight major areas of water use. Objective 1: Reduce Unaccounted (Non-Revenue) Water loss to Less than 10% The Minnesota Rural Waters Association, the Metropolitan Council and the Department of Natural Resources recommend that all water uses be metered. Metering can help identify high use locations and times, along with leaks within buildings that have multiple meters. It is difficult to quantify specific unmetered water use such as that associated with firefighting and system flushing or system leaks. Typically, water suppliers subtract metered water use from total water pumped to calculate unaccounted or non-revenue water loss. Is your ten-year average (2005-2014) unaccounted Water Use in Table 2 higher than 10%?  No What is your leak detection monitoring schedule? Contract a leak detection expert to check ¼ of the distribution system annually for leaks.

Water Audits – are intended to identify, quantify and verify water and revenue losses. The volume of unaccounted-for water should be evaluated each billing cycle. The American Water Works Association (AWWA) recommends that ten percent or less of pumped water is unaccounted-for water. Water audit 32

72

procedures are available from the AWWA and MN Rural Water Association www.mrwa.com . Drinking Water Revolving Loan Funds are available for purchase of new meters when new plants are built. What is the date of your most recent water audit? We have never completed an AWWA Water Audit. Frequency of water audits:  yearly  other (specify frequency) ________ Leak detection and survey:  every year  every other year periodic as needed Year last leak detection survey completed: _________ If Table 2 shows annual water losses over 10% or an increasing trend over time, describe what actions will be taken to reach the <10% loss objective and within what timeframe ERMU water losses are below 10% annually. Metering –AWWA recommends that every water supplier install meters to account for all water taken into its system, along with all water distributed from its system at each customer’s point of service. An effective metering program relies upon periodic performance testing, repair, maintenance or replacement of all meters. AWWA also recommends that water suppliers conduct regular water audits to ensure accountability. Some cities install separate meters for interior and exterior water use, but some research suggests that this may not result in water conservation. Complete Table 23 by adding the requested information regarding the number, types, testing and maintenance of customer meters. Table 23. Information about customer meters

Objective 2: Achieve Less than 75 Residential Gallons per Capita Demand (GPCD) The 2002 average residential per capita demand in the Twin Cities Metropolitan area was 75 gallons per capita per day. Is your average 2010-2015 residential per capita water demand in Table 2 more than 75? –No What was your 2005 – 2014 ten-year average residential per capita water demand? 39 g/person/day Describe the water use trend over that timeframe: The Residential Per Capita Demand has steadily decreased over the last five years. The average went from 45.55 gal/person/day to 35.06 gal/person/day.

Complete Table 25 by checking which strategies you will use to continue reducing residential per capita demand and project a likely timeframe for completing each checked strategy (Select all that apply and add rows for additional strategies): Table 25. Strategies and timeframe to reduce residential per capita demand

Strategy to reduce residential per capita demand  Revise city ordinances/codes to encourage or require water efficient landscaping.





 

Revise outdoor irrigation installations codes to require high efficiency systems (e.g. those with soil moisture sensors or programmable watering areas) in new installations or system replacements. Make water system infrastructure improvements

Offer free or reduced cost water use audits) for residential customers. Implement a notification system to inform customers when water availability conditions change.

34

74

Timeframe for completing work Discussion will take place in 2017 to revise city ordinances or codes to require a certain amounts of water efficient landscaping and water efficient topsoil. SMART Irrigation program has been in place since 2009. The program is highly encouraged but not required. Ongoing program to replace aging infrastructure in conjunction with pavement projects. Program to begin in 2017. ERMU currently utilizes the following methods to notify their customers of any important information regarding the water of electric service availability.  Website: www.elkriverutilities.com  Website: www.elkrivermn.gov  Twitter: @ERMU_MN  Facebook: CityofElkRiver  Newspaper: ER Star News  TV: Local Elk River Cable Channel





Provide rebates or incentives for installing water efficient appliances and/or fixtures indoors (e.g., low flow toilets, high efficiency dish washers and washing machines, showerhead and faucet aerators, water softeners, etc.) Provide rebates or incentives to reduce outdoor water use (e.g., turf replacement/reduction, rain gardens, rain barrels, smart irrigation, outdoor water use meters, etc.)



Program to begin in 2017.



SMART Irrigation program has been in place since 2009. The rain barrel program has been in place since 2014.

Objective 3: Achieve at least a 1.5% per year water reduction for Institutional, Industrial, Commercial, and Agricultural GPCD over the next 10 years or a 15% reduction in ten years. Complete Table 26 by checking which strategies you will used to continue reducing non-residential customer use demand and project a likely timeframe for completing each checked strategy (add rows for additional strategies). Where possible, substitute recycled water used in one process for reuse in another. (For example, spent rinse water can often be reused in a cooling tower.) Keep in mind the true cost of water is the amount on the water bill PLUS the expenses to heat, cool, treat, pump, and dispose of/discharge the water. Don’t just calculate the initial investment. Many conservation retrofits that appear to be prohibitively expensive are actually very cost-effective when amortized over the life of the equipment. Often reducing water use also saves electrical and other utility costs. Note: as of 2015, water reuse, and is not allowed by the state plumbing code, M.R. 4715 (a variance is needed). However several state agencies are addressing this issue. Table 26. Strategies and timeframe to reduce institutional, commercial industrial, and agricultural and non-revenue use demand

Strategy to reduce total business, industry, agricultural demand  Conduct a facility water use audit for both indoor and outdoor use, including system components



Install enhanced meters capable of automated readings to detect spikes in consumption



Install water conservation fixtures and appliances or change processes to conserve water Repair leaking system components (e.g., pipes, valves)





Reduce outdoor water use (e.g., turf replacement/reduction, rain gardens, rain barrels, smart irrigation, outdoor water use meters, etc.)

Timeframe for completing work ERMU will institute a program in 2017 where the conservation department will perform free water audits for customers who choose to have one completed. The new Badger meters ERMU has in service are capable of detecting leaks inside the household. ERMU Periodically hands out free water conserving fixtures. ERMU has implemented a leak detection program, and a supporting budget to repair leaks. ERMU periodically purchases rain barrels at a bulk price and sells them to customers at a reduced rate. The utility also has a rebate program for customers who install SMART Irrigation controllers and complete regular tune-ups of their irrigation systems.

Objective 4: Achieve a Decreasing Trend in Total Per Capita Demand Include as Appendix 8 one graph showing total per capita water demand for each customer category (i.e., residential, institutional, commercial, industrial) from 2005-2014 and add the calculated/estimated linear trend for the next 10 years. 35

75

Describe the trend for each customer category; explain the reason(s) for the trends, and where trends are increasing.

ERMU is only capable of tracking the residential and the commercial customer categories for the last ten years. The residential category overall has decreased by 35% since 2007. The residential trend is generally a declining trend. The commercial category has increased by 8% since 2007. Commercial has trended up and down since 2007. In recent years many businesses have moved to Elk River due to the healthier economy. Objective 5: Reduce Peak Day Demand so that the Ratio of Average Maximum day to the Average Day is less than 2.6

Is the ratio of average 2005-2014 maximum day demand to average 2005-2014 average day demand reported in Table 2 more than 2.6?No Calculate a ten year average (2005 – 2014) of the ratio of maximum day demand to average day demand: 2.33 The position of the DNR has been that a peak day/average day ratio that is above 2.6 for in summer indicates that the water being used for irrigation by the residents in a community is too large and that efforts should be made to reduce the peak day use by the community. It should be noted that by reducing the peak day use, communities can also reduce the amount of infrastructure that is required to meet the peak day use. This infrastructure includes new wells, new water towers which can be costly items.

Objective 6: Implement a Conservation Water Rate Structure and/or a Uniform Rate Structure with a Water Conservation Program Water Conservation Program Municipal water suppliers serving over 1,000 people are required to adopt demand reduction measures that include a conservation rate structure, or a uniform rate structure with a conservation program that achieves demand reduction. These measures must achieve demand reduction in ways that reduce water demand, water losses, peak water demands, and nonessential water uses. These measures must be approved before a community may request well construction approval from the Department of Health or before requesting an increase in water appropriations permit volume (Minnesota Statutes, section 103G.291, subd. 3 and 4). Rates should be adjusted on a regular basis to ensure that revenue of the system is adequate under reduced demand scenarios. If a municipal water supplier intends to use a Uniform Rate Structure, a community-wide Water Conservation Program that will achieve demand reduction must be provided. Current Water Rates Include a copy of the actual rate structure in Appendix 9 or list current water rates including base/service fees and volume charges below. Volume included in base rate or service charge: 0 gallons Frequency of billing:

Conservation Billing Strategies in Use *  Monthly Billing  Increasing block rates (volume tiered rates)  Use water bill to provide comparisons  Service charge not based on water volume  Monthly Billing  Increasing block rates  Service charge not based on water volume

Conservation Neutral Billing Strategies in Use **  Odd/Even day watering



Non-Conserving Billing Strategies in Use ***

Odd/Even day watering

* Rate Structures components that may promote water conservation:  Monthly billing: is encouraged to help people see their water usage so they can consider changing behavior.  Increasing block rates (also known as a tiered residential rate structure): Typically, these have at least three tiers: should have at least three tiers. o The first tier is for the winter average water use. o The second tier is the year-round average use, which is lower than typical summer use. This rate should be set to cover the full cost of service. o The third tier should be above the average annual use and should be priced high enough to encourage conservation, as should any higher tiers. For this to be effective, the difference in block rates should be significant.  Seasonal rate: higher rates in summer to reduce peak demands  Time of Use rates: lower rates for off peak water use  Bill water use in gallons: this allows customers to compare their use to average rates  Individualized goal rates: typically used for industry, business or other large water users to promote water conservation if they keep within agreed upon goals. Excess Use rates: if water use goes above an agreed upon amount this higher rate is charged  Drought surcharge: an extra fee is charged for guaranteed water use during drought  Use water bill to provide comparisons: simple graphics comparing individual use over time or compare individual use to others.  Service charge or base fee that does not include a water volume – a base charge or fee to cover universal city expenses that are not customer dependent and/or to provide minimal water at a lower rate (e.g., an amount less than the average residential per capita demand for the water supplier for the last 5 years)  Emergency rates -A community may have a separate conservation rate that only goes into effect when the community or governor declares a drought emergency. These higher rates can help to protect the city budgets during times of significantly less water usage. **Conservation Neutral**  Uniform rate: rate per unit used is the same regardless of the volume used  Odd/even day watering –This approach reduces peak demand on a daily basis for system operation, but it does not reduce overall water use. *** Non-Conserving ***  Service charge or base fee with water volume: an amount of water larger than the average residential per capita demand for the water supplier for the last 5 years  Declining block rate: the rate per unit used decreases as water use increases.

Flat rate: one fee regardless of how much water is used (usually unmetered).

Provide justification for any conservation neutral or non-conserving rate structures. If intending to adopt a conservation rate structure, include the timeframe to do so:

Objective 7: Additional strategies to Reduce Water Use and Support Wellhead Protection Planning Development and redevelopment projects can provide additional water conservation opportunities, such as the actions listed below. If a Uniform Rate Structure is in place, the water supplier must provide a Water Conservation Program that includes at least two of the actions listed below. Check those actions that you intent to implement within the next 10 years. Table 28. Additional strategies to Reduce Water Use & Support Wellhead Protection



Participate in the GreenStep Cities Program, including implementation of at least one of the 20 “Best Practices” for water

The City of Elk River is a Green Step City Step 4. The City of Elk River, along with ERMU, have taken steps to improve water quality (19.3) and have adopted a Shoreland Ordinance (19.4). Elk River also reviews energy use and performance of water and wastewater facility (20.1) and plans and budgets for maintenance and upgrades to the systems (20.2)     

Prepare a Comprehensive Open Space Plan (areas for parks, green spaces, natural areas) Adopt a Water Use Restriction Ordinance (lawn irrigation, car washing, pools, etc.) Adopt an Outdoor Lawn Irrigation Ordinance Implement a Stormwater Management Program Implement a Rebate program for water efficient appliances, fixtures, or outdoor water management

Objective 8: Tracking Success: How will you track or measure success through the next ten years? Elk River Municipal Utilities will continue to do an annual review of usage to include GPCD. ERMU will also continue to monitor and implement programs to reduce unaccounted for loss. New conservation programs will be researched and developed to ensure that ERMU will remain at the forefront of conservation. Tip: The process to monitor demand reduction and/or a rate structure includes: a) The DNR District Hydrologist or Groundwater Appropriation Hydrologist will call or visit the community the first 1-3 years after the water supply plan is completed. b) They will discuss what activities the community is doing to conserve water and if they feel their actions are successful. The Water Supply Plan, Part 3 tables and responses will guide the discussion. For example, they will discuss efforts to reduce unaccounted for water loss if that is a problem, or go through Tables 33, 34 and 35 to discuss new initiatives. c) The city representative and the hydrologist will discuss total per capita water use, residential per capita water use, and business/industry use. They will note trends. 39

79

d) They will also discuss options for improvement and/or collect case studies of success stories to share with other communities. One option may be to change the rate structure, but there are many other paths to successful water conservation. e) If appropriate, they will cooperatively develop a simple work plan for the next few years, targeting a couple areas where the city might focus efforts.

A. Regulation Complete Table 29 by selecting which regulations are used to reduce demand and improve water efficiencies. Add additional rows as needed. Copies of adopted regulations or proposed restrictions or should be included in Appendix 10 (a list with hyperlinks is acceptable). Table 29. Regulations for short-term reductions in demand and long-term improvements in water efficiencies

Regulations Utilized  Rainfall sensors required on landscape irrigation systems  Critical/Emergency Water Deficiency ordinance  Watering restriction requirements (time of day, allowable days, etc.)  Soil preparation requirement s (after construction, requiring topsoil to be applied to promote good root growth)  Tree ratios (requiring a certain number of trees per square foot of lawn)

When is it applied (in effect)?  Ongoing  Only during declared Emergencies  Odd/Even   

New Development Construction Projects New development

B. Retrofitting Programs Education and incentive programs aimed at replacing inefficient plumbing fixtures and appliances can help reduce per capita water use, as well as energy costs. It is recommended that municipal water suppliers develop a long-term plan to retrofit public buildings with water efficient plumbing fixtures and appliances. Some water suppliers have developed partnerships with organizations having similar conservation goals, such as electric or gas suppliers, to develop cooperative rebate and retrofit programs. A study by the AWWA Research Foundation (Residential End Uses of Water, 1999) found that the average indoor water use for a non-conserving home is 69.3 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). The average indoor water use in a conserving home is 45.2 gpcd and most of the decrease in water use is related to water efficient plumbing fixtures and appliances that can reduce water, sewer and energy costs. In Minnesota, certain electric and gas providers are required (Minnesota Statute 216B.241) to fund programs that will conserve energy resources and some utilities have distributed water efficient showerheads to customers to help reduce energy demands required to supply hot water. Retrofitting Programs Complete Table 30 by checking which water uses are targeted, the outreach methods used, the measures used to identify success, and any participating partners.

C. Education and Information Programs Customer education should take place in three different circumstances. First, customers should be provided information on how to conserve water and improve water use efficiencies. Second, information should be provided at appropriate times to address peak demands. Third, emergency notices and educational materials about how to reduce water use should be available for quick distribution during an emergency. Proposed Education Programs Complete Table 31 by selecting which methods are used to provide water conservation and information, including the frequency of program components.

GLOSSARY Agricultural/Irrigation Water Use - Water used for crop and non-crop irrigation, livestock watering, chemigation, golf course irrigation, landscape and athletic field irrigation. Average Daily Demand - The total water pumped during the year divided by 365 days. Calcareous Fen - Calcareous fens are rare and distinctive wetlands dependent on a constant supply of cold groundwater. Because they are dependent on groundwater and are one of the rarest natural communities in the United States, they are a protected resource in MN. Approximately 200 have been located in Minnesota. They may not be filled, drained or otherwise degraded. Commercial/Institutional Water Use - Water used by motels, hotels, restaurants, office buildings, commercial facilities and institutions (both civilian and military). Consider maintaining separate institutional water use records for emergency planning and allocation purposes. Water used by multifamily dwellings, apartment buildings, senior housing complexes, and mobile home parks should be reported as Residential Water Use. Commercial/Institutional/Industrial (C/I/I) Water Sold - The sum of water delivered for commercial/institutional or industrial purposes. Conservation Rate Structure - A rate structure that encourages conservation and may include increasing block rates, seasonal rates, time of use rates, individualized goal rates, or excess use rates. If a conservation rate is applied to multifamily dwellings, the rate structure must consider each residential unit as an individual user. A community may have a separate conservation rate that only goes into effect when the community or governor declares a drought emergency. These higher rates can help to protect the city budgets during times of significantly less water usage. Date of Maximum Daily Demand - The date of the maximum (highest) water demand. Typically this is a day in July or August. Declining Rate Structure - Under a declining block rate structure, a consumer pays less per additional unit of water as usage increases. This rate structure does not promote water conservation. Distribution System - Water distribution systems consist of an interconnected series of pipes, valves, storage facilities (water tanks, water towers, reservoirs), water purification facilities, pumping stations, flushing hydrants, and components that convey drinking water and meeting fire protection needs for cities, homes, schools, hospitals, businesses, industries and other facilities. Flat Rate Structure - Flat fee rates do not vary by customer characteristics or water usage. This rate structure does not promote water conservation. Industrial Water Use - Water used for thermonuclear power (electric utility generation) and other industrial use such as steel, chemical and allied products, paper and allied products, mining, and petroleum refining.

45

85

Low Flow Fixtures/Appliances - Plumbing fixtures and appliances that significantly reduce the amount of water released per use are labeled “low flow”. These fixtures and appliances use just enough water to be effective, saving excess, clean drinking water that usually goes down the drain. Maximum Daily Demand - The maximum (highest) amount of water used in one day. Metered Residential Connections - The number of residential connections to the water system that have meters. For multifamily dwellings, report each residential unit as an individual user. Percent Unmetered/Unaccounted For - Unaccounted for water use is the volume of water withdrawn from all sources minus the volume of water delivered. This value represents water “lost” by miscalculated water use due to inaccurate meters, water lost through leaks, or water that is used but unmetered or otherwise undocumented. Water used for public services such as hydrant flushing, ice skating rinks, and public swimming pools should be reported under the category “Water Supplier Services”. Population Served - The number of people who are served by the community’s public water supply system. This includes the number of people in the community who are connected to the public water supply system, as well as people in neighboring communities who use water supplied by the community’s public water supply system. It should not include residents in the community who have private wells or get their water from neighboring water supply. Residential Connections - The total number of residential connections to the water system. For multifamily dwellings, report each residential unit as an individual user. Residential Per Capita Demand - The total residential water delivered during the year divided by the population served divided by 365 days. Residential Water Use - Water used for normal household purposes such as drinking, food preparation, bathing, washing clothes and dishes, flushing toilets, and watering lawns and gardens. Should include all water delivered to single family private residences, multi-family dwellings, apartment buildings, senior housing complexes, mobile home parks, etc. Smart Meter - Smart meters can be used by municipalities or by individual homeowners. Smart metering generally indicates the presence of one or more of the following: 

 

Smart irrigation water meters are controllers that look at factors such as weather, soil, slope, etc. and adjust watering time up or down based on data. Smart controllers in a typical summer will reduce water use by 30%-50%. Just changing the spray nozzle to new efficient models can reduce water use by 40%. Smart Meters on customer premises that measure consumption during specific time periods and communicate it to the utility, often on a daily basis. A communication channel that permits the utility, at a minimum, to obtain meter reads on demand, to ascertain whether water has recently been flowing through the meter and onto the 46

86

premises, and to issue commands to the meter to perform specific tasks such as disconnecting or restricting water flow. Total Connections - The number of connections to the public water supply system. Total Per Capita Demand - The total amount of water withdrawn from all water supply sources during the year divided by the population served divided by 365 days. Total Water Pumped - The cumulative amount of water withdrawn from all water supply sources during the year. Total Water Delivered - The sum of residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, water supplier services, wholesale and other water delivered. Ultimate (Full Build-Out) - Time period representing the community’s estimated total amount and location of potential development, or when the community is fully built out at the final planned density. Unaccounted (Non-revenue) Loss - See definitions for “percent unmetered/unaccounted for loss”. Uniform Rate Structure - A uniform rate structure charges the same price-per-unit for water usage beyond the fixed customer charge, which covers some fixed costs. The rate sends a price signal to the customer because the water bill will vary by usage. Uniform rates by class charge the same price-perunit for all customers within a customer class (e.g. residential or non-residential). This price structure is generally considered less effective in encouraging water conservation. Water Supplier Services - Water used for public services such as hydrant flushing, ice skating rinks, public swimming pools, city park irrigation, back-flushing at water treatment facilities, and/or other uses. Water Used for Nonessential Purposes - Water used for lawn irrigation, golf course and park irrigation, car washes, ornamental fountains, and other non-essential uses. Wholesale Deliveries - The amount of water delivered in bulk to other public water suppliers.

107

Water Level Monitoring Plan The following activities will be completed on a routine basis to ensure consistent monitoring of each well and the health of the aquifer. 1. Elk River Municipal Utilities will continually monitor the static and pumping levels in each well through SCADA trending levels. 2. The Water Superintendent will take the monthly highest static and the lowest pumping levels, and then calculate the monthly maximum drawdown. 3. After the drawdown has been calculated, the water superintendent will calculate the specific capacity for each well. 4. The static, pumping, drawdown, and specific capacities will be recorded on a spreadsheet and maintained for at least ten years.

Minnesota Water Supply Plan Instructions & Checklist 2016-2018 Public Water Suppliers All public water suppliers in Minnesota that operate a public water distribution system, serve more than 1,000 people and/or all cities in the seven-county metropolitan area, must have a water supply plan approved by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Water supply plans must be updated and submitted to the DNR for approval every ten years. This requirement, in place since the 1990s, is designed to encourage communities to deal proactively with providing sustainable drinking water for citizens, businesses, and industry.1 These plan updates will be due between 2016 and 2018; the DNR will be notifying communities of the due date for each specific city water plan. All sections of the water supply plan must be completed in order for the plan to be approved. A checklist is included with these instructions on pages 4 and 5.

What is New? • Plans can be submitted through Minnesota DNR Permitting and Reporting System (MPARS). • DNR Hydrologists will be meeting with clusters of communities rather than individually. In the Twin Cities metropolitan area, Metropolitan Council staff will also provide technical assistance and in Greater MN, staff from MN Rural Waters Association will join us. • There is a greater emphasis on water conservation/demand reduction and on developing rate structures that encourage conservation. • Simplified reporting: More tables with check boxes; less writing required. • Part 4 of the plan, required for communities in the seven-county metropolitan area, now reflects the Twin Cities metropolitan area Master Water Supply Plan • Resources - can be found at www.mndnr.gov/watersupplyplans including copies of sample rate structures, conservation ordinances, education programs, water level recording forms, certificate of adoption, and other items as well as links to useful conservation web pages. Submitting a Plan for DNR Approval Preferably, please submit plans electronically to: https://webapps11.dnr.state.mn.us/mpars/public/authentication/login

Steps for electronic submission: 1. Follow the above link and log into MPARS. 2. From your Account Overview Permits Tab, click on your primary Water Supply Permit Number. 3. Then click on Communication Tab. 4. Click New Message to Hydrologist (under Communication heading)

If you have questions regarding water supply plans, please call (651) 259-5034 or e-mail questions to [email protected] Twin Cities Metropolitan Area Requirements

All communities that operate a public water supply system within the seven county Twin Cities metropolitan area, even those with fewer than 1,000 people, must complete a local water supply plan and submit it to the Metropolitan Council, adjacent communities, and the county for review and comment. These plans include completion of Part 4 of the local water supply plan template.

Please submit plans to DNR Ecological and Water Resources Division as described above. Plans for communities in the seven-county metropolitan area will be shared with the Metropolitan Council. Final Plan Adoption by City or Board Communities give the plan preliminary approval subject to DNR review and, for communities in the seven-county metropolitan area, by Metropolitan Council review.

If the DNR or Metropolitan Council have recommended changes, the community should incorporate them into the plan or respond before the plan is finally adopted.

Communities and utility boards must officially adopt the plan after it is approved by the DNR and, for metro communities, reviewed by Metropolitan Council. A template of a city certification of adoption is found at www.mndnr.gov/watersupplyplans

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Theresa Slominski – Finance and Office Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 2.6 SUBJECT: Renewal Premium for LMCIT Property/Casual Insurance ACTION REQUESTED: Accept the 2017-2018 Property and Casualty Insurance renewal. BACKGROUND: Our annual renewal for Property and Casualty Insurance is effective 7/1/2017 through 7/1/2018. DISCUSSION: We have received our renewal premium from the LMCIT for the 2017-2018 year. The 2017-2018 premium is $115,122 with a $20,000 per occurrence/$40,000 annual aggregate deductible, except the Equipment Breakdown has a separate $20,000 per accident deductible. This is a reduction from the prior year of $2,310 or 2%. We have a reduction in premium this year due to a few different factors.  The property premium increased about 27%. Property rated decreased by 4%, however the protection class changed from (03) to (05).  Our experience modification factor increased slightly from .863 to .876. Our aggregate factor also increased slightly from 1.010 to 1.014.  The mobile property premium has decreased substantially. This is due to the change in items that are scheduled & how “unscheduled mobile property” is now priced. The premium is based on a percentage of the property premium and not a flat charge as in prior years.  The municipal liability premium increased about 8%. There are a few factors that contributed to this: 1) the increase in the experience modification factor and aggregate factor, 2) the increase in expenditure rates of 5%.  The auto liability premium increased about 10%. The automobile liability rates have remained flat, however there are additional vehicles, as well as the increase in the experience modification factor and the aggregate factor. I have attached the Renewal Premium Summary for your review, which lists the various coverages and related premiums. No changes are suggested and so this is informational only. FINANCIAL IMPACT: A 2% reduction in premium from the prior year, totaling $2,310.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Troy Adams, P.E. - General Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 4.1 SUBJECT: Delegation to Management Policies ACTION REQUESTED: Adopt the proposed Delegation to Management Policies. BACKGROUND: In 2016 the Commission approved contracting with Collaboration Unlimited to update and develop core governance policy. The decision to implement and the schedule for completion were largely based on two factors. First, the existing policy book and by-laws had not been reviewed or updated on a routine basis. Second, with the March 2017 expansion for the ERMU Commission from three to five members it was determined to be beneficial to develop and update core governance policy to serve as a guide for the expanded Commission. The work was divided into two phases, the first being the core governance policies and the second addressing the development of delegation to management policies. DISCUSSION: Presented for consideration are the next two delegation to management policies that our consultant John Miner has developed. Staff worked with ERMU’s legal counsel to review the proposed delegation to management policies. The results of that review are reflected in the following proposed policies: • •

G.4d G.4e

Customer Interests Core Customer Services

With only the first six policies of Phase 2 developed, there are gaps and overlap in policy. These gaps and overlaps are intended to be resolved as the Commission reviews and considers policy updates and revisions throughout this project. It is the intention to bring policy back for consideration at every Commission meeting. The remaining policies to be developed in the delegation to management are reflected in the tentative table of contents which is attached for reference.

Core Customer Services

PURPOSE: With this policy, the Commission sets forth its expectations for the General Manager concerning core customer services and related business opportunities. POLICY: The ERMU Commission expects the General Manager to ensure that customers receive safe, reliable, cost effective and quality long term electric and water utility services that directly support ERMU’s core purpose and mission as stated in the Organizational Core Purpose Policy and Mission Statement Policy. ERMU’s “core customer services” are retail electric and water services. Consistent with this general statement, the General Manager shall: 1. Identify and keep the Commission informed about the full range of business opportunities that are reasonably available to ERMU for the provision of its core customer services, bringing appropriate recommendations to the Commission for consideration and approval. 2. Keep him/herself and others in the organization informed about electric and water services trends, technologies, and practices through independent research, membership in appropriate organizations, and participation in appropriate industry workshops, seminars, and other similar opportunities. 3. Actively participate in relevant associations and advocacy groups, and stay informed about the national, regional, and state electric power and water supply markets, market participants, market management, and related legal and regulatory initiatives that may directly affect the interests of ERMU customers. Work to mitigate regulatory risks by acting on behalf of the interests of ERMU and its customers.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission ERMU Wage & Benefits Committee MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 4.2 SUBJECT: Wage & Benefits Committee Update ACTION REQUESTED: Approve the organization staffing change to replace the Lead Electrical Technician with the proposed Distribution Engineer. BACKGROUND: The Wage & Benefits Committee (W&BC) was created to help the Commission develop and maintain a pay plan structure and benefits package. The W&BC also helps the Commission with succession planning and to review pay equity compliance. The W&BC evaluates and recommends to the Commission. The W&BC does not have the authority to act without prior Commission delegation of authority. DISCUSSION: The W&BC met on June 30 regarding two organization staffing issues: the vacant Key Accounts Specialist position and the retirement announcement from the Lead Electrical Technician. Key Accounts Specialist: This budgeted position has been vacant since March 2017. Staff recommended to the Commission that this position remain vacant, if workload permitted, until an implementation plan for the transition away from load management programs had been developed and approved by the Commission. In June the Commission approved the direction for development of this transition plan which now includes moving from load management to time of use rates and behavior modifying programs. Another significant variable that directly impacts the filling of this position had been identified and was presented to the W&BC. Staff is currently working on an initiative for transition from one billing cycle per month to four billing cycles per month. This multi-billing cycle initiative will balance call volume and workload for office staff. This may dramatically alter the level at which the CSRs and Specialists can contribute to addressing conservation program questions on the phone. Management is optimistic that the multi-billing cycle initiative will positively impact this workflow. Because of this workload unknown, management recommended to the W&BC to hold on filling this position until after multi-billing cycles has been implemented. This is scheduled for late 2017 or early 2018. The anticipated change in office workload and workflow would allow for the responsibilities and overall position description to be re-evaluated. It was the consensus of the ______________________________________________________________________________ Page 1 of 2 168

W&BC to not fill the Key Accounts Specialist position at this time and to re-evaluate the needs and related skill-sets required after the implementation of multi-billing cycles. Management has held several meetings regarding the current workload levels and has identified numerous options to manage the workload while this position remains vacant. If the ability to cover this workload changes prior the implementation of multi-billing cycles, this vacancy would be re-addressed by the W&BC and then by the Commission. Lead Electrical Technician: On June 19, ERMU’s Lead Electrical Technician provided formal retirement notice stating his last day would be July 10. This position, the related responsibilities, and required skills had last been revised when ERMU’s current pay plan structure was adopted by the Commission nearly 10 years ago. This position is a direct report of the Technical Services Superintendent and part of the Technical Services Department. The W&BC has discussed the succession planning for this position for three years identifying the potential for updating the position at the time of a retirement. With the announcement from the current Lead Electrical Technician, the opportunity to change this position and address department skill set needs can be accomplished through the hiring process. W&BC’s staff representatives worked with the Technical Service Superintendent to identify department and company skill sets needed and work load concerns relating to this vacancy. Those discussions resulted in the consensus that the position should be changed to a Distribution Engineer. This position change makes it possible to shift and balance system design workload freeing up the Electric Superintendent and the Assistant Electric Superintendent to focus their efforts on more leadership responsibilities rather than design tasks. This proposed change would also allow ERMU to bring in house some engineering analysis work that is currently being outsourced to consultants. The Technical Services Superintendent believes that the current workload covered by the Lead Electrical Technician would be able to be covered during the hiring process and beyond as tasks and workload are balanced and redistributed. The draft position description was developed by staff and presented to the W&BC receiving consensus supporting the change. The proposed change of replacing the Lead Electrical Technician with a Distribution Engineer does not negatively impact the ERMU pay equity report; we still pass even under the most conservative hiring scenario. ERMU is not required to file the pay equity report until January 2018. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Finance and Office Manager and the General Manager have analyzed the impact of the proposed Distribution Engineer on the Commission approved ERMU Pay Plan. Using the Commission adopted Riley, Dettmann & Kelsey Job Evaluation System, and the changes in the position result in a change in from Field Group Grade 9 to Field Group Grade 10. The potential impact to the 2017 budget if a highly qualified applicant were to be hired at the top pay step would be approximately $3,000 greater than the current position. However, the hiring process will result in a delay in filing which will produce an approximately saving of $14,000 (w/o benefit considerations, wages only) for the 2017 annual budget. There is also anticipated consulting expense savings related to the change. And although a midyear recommendation, this proposed change has been in discussion for three years. ______________________________________________________________________________ Page 2 of 2 169

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Theresa Slominski – Finance & Office Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 5.1 SUBJECT: Financial Report - May 2017 ACTION REQUESTED: Receive the May 2017 Financial Report DISCUSSION: Electric P&L May’s electric kwh sales (from April consumption) are up from the prior year, 1%. For further breakdown:  Residential usage is down 4%  Small Commercial usage is up 7%  Large Commercial usage is up 2% Electric Operating Revenue for May was $2,414,841, 5% above the prior year and 1% below budget. This includes the pro-forma adjustment to show the demand adjustment credit being funded through reserves. This month the adjustment was $37,268. The adjustment didn’t start being booked in 2016 until August. May’s Operating Revenue would be $2,377,573 without the pro-forma adjustment, which is 3% above prior year and 1% below budget. Other Revenue Total is below the prior year by 21%, which is largely driven by the sale of the security division. Other Revenue is 23% above budget YTD. Overall, Total Revenues of $2,569,515 are above prior year by 3% and above prior YTD by 4%. YTD Total Revenues are above budget by 1%. Purchased Power of $1,880,589 is more than the prior year by 9%, but is under the budget by 2%. YTD costs are more than prior year by 7%, but are still under budget by 1%. Administrative Expenses of $283,760 are 44% above the prior year, and 19% above budget. YTD costs are above prior year by 18%, and are above budget by 1%. The increase over the prior YTD is most notably due to medical and dental insurances, which is $59,307 more than the prior YTD or 24%.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Tom Sagstetter – Conservation & Key Accounts Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 5.2 SUBJECT: Electric Vehicle Charging Station Update ACTION REQUESTED: Approve the 2017 Utilities Fee Schedule as amended to include hourly fees for public EV charging. BACKGROUND: ERMU was awarded a grant from the American Public Power Association in 2016 to implement an electric vehicle (EV) charging program focused around new and innovative technologies for public and in home EV charging. A major component of the grant was the focus on partnerships with City of Elk River, local businesses, and the EV community. ERMU has implemented Time of Use Rates (TOU) for the 5 participants in our charging program. On June 23 the installation and activation of the level two charger in the public parking lot in downtown Elk River was completed. This site is operational and is open for public charging. Since that time there has been one customer that has utilized the charger. The customer was connected to the charger for approximately 45 minutes and received 4.43 kWh in that time. DISCUSSION: To facilitate a positive charging experience for the customer, ERMU is proposing two convenient hourly fees for the public electric vehicle charging station; the fee for the first 3 hours at $1.00/hour, and after 3 hours increased to $2.50 per hour. The $1 per hour fee will recover the energy costs associated with maximum charging scenario at summer rates for the unit. The second fee of $2.50/hour after 3 hours serves as a motivational fee to have people move their vehicle after it’s been charged. The proposed fees would be added to the 2017 Utilities Fee Schedule. To celebrate the public role out of the EV charging program, ERMU is planning a ribbon cutting ceremony and Grand Opening for the new level two charger. The event has been scheduled for September 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. in the HRA parking lot downtown Elk River, and also coincides with National Drive Electric Week. The event will offer members of the community the opportunity to stop by and learn more about the technology, talk with EV owners, and drive electric vehicles. In preparation for the event, staff has been working closely with Prime Advertising to create a full marketing plan. To date we have created a new logo for the program and are working out the details of the plan that will include social media, web site information and links, informational ______________________________________________________________________________ Page 1 of 2 190

brochures, and other promotional items to promote the new “EV/ER – Power Your Future” program. The Grand Opening will be promoted through bill inserts to ERMU customers and through social media to the EV community. ERMU staff will leverage the partnership with the City of Elk River and Energy City to promote the event locally and through the cities social media sites. Another key aspect to promoting this event will be the local businesses partners. Organizations that staff have been reaching out to include; Cornerstone Auto, ChargePoint, MNCharging.org, Plug Share, Drive Electric Minnesota, and others.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Troy Adams, P.E. - General Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 5.3 SUBJECT: Otsego Streetlights ACTION REQUESTED: Approve proposed terms for transfer of Otsego street lighting assets within ERMU electric service territory. BACKGROUND: In late 2016, the City of Otsego contacted ERMU regarding their city owned street lighting located within ERMU electric service territory. The City of Otsego wanted to explore the possibility of transferring these streetlights to ERMU, and then pay ERMU to service and maintain the lights going forward. The ERMU Commission gave staff direction to research this opportunity. DISCUSSION: Proposed Streetlight Transfer Owning and maintaining streetlights falls within ERMU’s current services offered. ERMU owns, services, and maintains over 1,300 lights within the City of Elk River. ERMU also already owns, services, and maintains 78 lights within the City of Otsego. These lights are separate from the proposed transfer. There are three commercial developments where the City of Otsego wants to transfer streetlights that they own and maintain. These areas are identified on the attached Exhibit A overview and broken out into Exhibits B, C, and D. These commercial developments are Otsego Waterfront, Otsego Waterfront East, and Great River Centre respectively. There are a total of 101 streetlights of three different types within these areas, none of which are currently used by ERMU. Also, the fixtures in these areas were installed over the years and many are damaged or do not currently work. There are seven additional locations within these areas where there are streetlight bases but no streetlights. The fixture cut sheets for these three different types of fixtures have been provided to ERMU staff. ERMU limits the number of streetlight styles in the current design standards. This is done to minimize inventory which helps to control costs and storage space. Per the 2017 ERMU Fee Schedule, aide to construction street light installation fees to developers are: $1,850 for a 30’ decorative pole with a 6’ arm, and $1,500 for a 23’ decorative pole with a traditionaire style fixture. These styles are common and readily available from multiple lighting manufacturers which allows ERMU to have flexibility in purchasing yet maintaining consistency in appearance. ______________________________________________________________________________ Page 1 of 3 193

The aide to construction collected from the developer upfront helps to pay for approximately 50% of the initial cost of labor and materials. The fixtures are then depreciated over 20 years. Replacement is funded through energy sales on an electric tariff or a fixed fee per fixture. The 2017 ERMU Street/Security Light Service Tariff and 2017 ERMU Fee Schedule are attached for reference. ERMU also has a unique lighting situation in downtown Elk River where there are decorative two fixture light poles. In conjunction with the US HWY 10 bridge project in Elk River, the City will be adding a trail that will lead from Lake Orono Park into downtown. ERMU is in the process of selecting a decorative light pole that can be used on this trail and transition to a matching decorative light pole to replace the existing downtown streetlights. When transferred, ERMU would look to fix and paint many of these streetlights to extend their life. As previously noted, not all of these streetlights work and many have been damaged. ERMU would need to replace selected areas initially and potentially reuse some of the removed fixtures to replace broken fixtures. Once transferred, the City of Otsego would relinquish their authority to select the streetlight fixtures style. That authority would need to be ERMU’s. Based on the remaining life of these fixtures and the potential for reusable parts, ERMU staff has estimated a supplemental transfer of $70,000 would be needed in addition to asset transfer. This is a prorated aide to construction equivalent. These streetlights would then become part of the ERMU capital project projects and be scheduled with applicable priority with all system projects. The City of Otsego had expressed interest in having their Otsego Waterfront commercial development outfitted with the same decorative lighting the ERMU selects for Elk River’s downtown. This would be possible, but would require an additional premium per fixture. Overhead Electric Feeder Along County Road 39 There is an additional consideration. In January 2008, the City of Otsego informed ERMU that an upgrade portion of the 2.5 mile overhead electric distribution feeder that runs from the ERMU Otsego substation on CSAH 39 west to the Mississippi Cove residential development would need to be relocated to underground electric within 10 years or before CSAH 39 is upgraded. This was a waiver granted by the City of Otsego Council to delay an ordinance which required upgraded overhead electric systems to be placed underground. This county road has not been upgraded and we are approaching the 10 year mark. The purpose of the ordinance is aesthetics. The Otsego City Council meeting minutes from January 14, 2008, are attached. This issue is discussed in agenda item 9.1. There are multiple concerns for ERMU with this requirement. First, to retire an asset before its end of life is an undue financial burden on ERMU’s customers. Second, the replacement of an overhead electric feeder with an underground electric feeder is not a one-for-one change. With overhead electric, restoration from damage is quicker than with underground. Because of this, ERMU can maintain high reliability and short outage times. Underground maintenance takes significantly longer. Because of this, ERMU loops all underground facilities allowing for an alternate power source while maintenance is performed. So the underground facilities required to accomplish the same function as the overhead facilities nearly double the amount of equipment and could more than quadruples the cost. ______________________________________________________________________________ Page 2 of 3 194

Third, there is not any available Right Of Way along this section of CSAH 39. And with underground facilities, ERMU’s space needs would double. Without any ROW available, ERMU would need to purchase easements from the property owners. This would likely be very costly. And lastly, without Wright County issuing plans and starting the CSAH 39 upgrade project there is no way of guaranteeing that ERMU would be in the way of the road upgrade. The Terms Staff has had a number of conversations with the Otsego City Engineer regarding the proposed terms of a transfer. These are the terms which ERMU staff is recommending: 1. The transfer would include 101 fixtures and 7 missing fixtures identified on the attached exhibits. The transfer would also include the underground wiring, control cabinets, and all related electrical infrastructure related to these streetlights. 2. This transfer would be contingent upon an extension to the requirement to underground ERMU’s facilities discussed during the January 14, 2008, Otsego City Council meeting. That extension would delay ERMU’s requirement to underground those facilities until that section of CSAH 39 is upgraded and additional ROW is secured by the County which ERMU would be able to use. 3. The transferred lights would be subject to fees as approved by the ERMU Commission annually and published as part of the ERMU Fee Schedule. Currently, there would be 52 streetlights/locations that would be subject to the $15/month fixed fee and 56 streetlights/locations that would be subject to the $9/month fixed fee. These fees are subject to change under ERMU Commission’s authority. These fees are the same fees used for the other streetlights within ERMU’s electric service territory including those located within the City of Elk River. 4. ERMU would have the authority to select the streetlight style for fixtures replaced. 5. The transfer would include a prorated and reduced aide to construction totaling $35,000. 6. If the City of Otsego wanted to upgrade the Otsego Waterfront lights to match the future lights selected for downtown Elk River, this option would come with a $1,000 per fixture premium. Staff recommends the Commission approve the terms as described and give staff authority to develop an asset transfer agreement and CSAH 39 overhead to underground electric system relocation extension agreement.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Troy Adams, P.E. – General Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: July 11, 2017 6.1a SUBJECT: Staff Updates – General Manager ACTION REQUESTED: No Action Requested DISCUSSION:  The Board of Directors of the Minnesota Municipal Power Agency (MMPA) met on June 27, 2017 at the offices of Shakopee Public Utilities in Shakopee, Minnesota. The Board discussed the rollout of Clean Energy Choice for Business, which is scheduled for next month. The Board reviewed the status of the renewable projects that the Agency is pursuing. The success of MMPA’s 2017 Energy Education program was also discussed. Fourth graders from all twelve MMPA member communities participated in either the FEP tour event or local energy education assemblies. The Board also discussed the grand opening for Shakopee Energy Park on Thursday, July 27, 2017, beginning at 4pm. An invitation outlining the details is attached. 

I continue to work with MMPA on items related to the wholesale power provider migration from GRE. There are many things to still be completed prior to the October 1, 2018, transfer date.



I have spent considerable time working on governance policies for the upcoming Commission meetings. Some of the upcoming policies have required a number of iterations between John Miner, Peter Beck, and me largely because ERMU has established practices. I will continue to bring these polices back a few at a time for the Commission’s consideration with the goal of completion yet this year.



Had the quarterly meeting with Connexus Energy’s CEO on June 26. We discussed lineworker safety and the recent storm damage, the results of the legislative session, the State Conservation Improvement Program (CIP), and other current issues.



Had the second annual meeting with Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative’s CEO on June 28. MVEC also uses NISC billing and accounting software. They also have

______________________________________________________________________________ Page 1 of 2 208

implemented AMI and prepaid metering. We’d discussed NISC, staffing levels and development, the recent legislative session, and CIP. We discovered enough common ground that it may be beneficial to meet bi-annually. 

In addition to discussing CIP with Connexus and MVEC, I had talked to Wright Hennepin Cooperative Electric Association’s CEO about it last month. And have had conversations with East Central Energy’s CEO regarding CIP. These conversations have lead way to efforts between MMUA and Minnesota Rural Electric Association (MREA) to put together a small joint working group to discuss CIP.



I attended the American Public Power Association (APPA) National Conference on June 19-21. During the conference, APPA held an annual business meeting where the system delegates voted on a number of resolutions and voted on nominations for the APPA Board of Directors. The conference had a few excellent general sessions as well as breakout sessions. I attended breakout sessions on: Active Shooter Preparedness and Electric Vehicles. I was a presenter for one breakout session on communicating reliability. Many of the general sessions focused on the changing business model and workforce. The outgoing and incoming APPA board chairs gave very moving speeches, as did APPA President and CEO Sue Kelly. A number of Minnesota public power individuals took home national awards: Tony Ward, retired GM from Grand Rapids, received the Individual Achievement Award; Tom Kuntz, mayor of the City of Owatonna, received the Public Official Award; and Mike Willetts, MMUA Director of Safety and Training, received the Personal Service Award. The 2018 APPA National Conference will be held in New Orleans.



We will be conducting a “short term” planning session on July 12. This planning session is used to identify and prioritize projects, initiatives, and capital purchases that will roll into the 2018 budget process. The leadership team also conducts a “long term” planning session every January to maintain a rolling 5 year plan. The long term planning feeds into the short term planning each year. We will use an affinity process to prioritize and establish SMART goals for each initiative. Progress on these initiatives is tracked by management using an initiative dashboard. The projects, initiatives, and capital purchases that rise in priority are then approved by the Commission with the budget in December.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: ERMU Commission MEETING DATE: July 11, 2017 SUBJECT: Staff Update ACTION REQUESTED: None

FROM: Theresa Slominski – Finance & Office Manager AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: 6.1b

DISCUSSION:  I participated in a webinar “Executive Address” from NISC, where they presented their in-house development of Cyber Security options. They basically have their own Cyber Security options for organizations that may not be able to find/fund certain resources all on their own. NISC has partnered with various third parties to bring the expertise to the customers they serve. We are very fortunate to have IT staff that has already embraced this need and so we are already ahead of many utility organizations. As we move forward with our own cyber security evaluations, however, this may be an additional resource consideration. 

As a follow-up from the General Manager review last month, and the request to benchmark that position, I have been reviewing potential additional Executive Compensation options with our insurance brokers, as well as local independents. My plan is to have some options identified to present at the fall Wage and Benefits Committee meeting (when we review other benefits, insurance renewals and COLA.)



The last 2016 energy related report has been filed – the MN Utility report. The accounting staff was able to compile the information for this filing, giving them great exposure to the many intricacies of our industry. There were also a few salary survey requests that came through this past month. With these annual reports now filed, we move forward with budgeting for 2018.



In 2012, prior to our First National Bank issued credit cards, I had a company Capital One credit card. That account has now been closed and a check for $15.54 was received for accumulated points. An invoice was created, crediting Miscellaneous Expense, and the check was applied as payment.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: ERMU Commission MEETING DATE: July 11, 2017 SUBJECT: Staff Update ACTION REQUESTED: None

FROM: Mark Fuchs – Electric Superintendent AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: 6.1c

DISCUSSION:  Had nine new house services.  Continue working on collecting data with the GPS for our ArcView maps as time permits.  Finished rebuilding 165th Ave; this is in Area 2 that we acquired from Connexus.  Continue construction on Waco 2 substation. We bored in the pipes for the feeders which included three to the south across the railroad tracks and three to the east across County Road 35.  Finished making up seventeen residential lots at Wildflower Villas in Otsego.  Continue working along Highway 10 from Gary Street to Xenia Avenue. We still need to move a switchgear cabinet and some poles and anchors.  Started installing a three phase underground service for the Elk River Senior Living building on 183rd Circle.  Last year Mi-Tech Pole Inspections Services tested some of our poles and found eight poles that needed to be replaced; each year we have a certain amount of poles tested. We just completed changing out the final pole that failed last year’s inspection.  In the process of replacing an old underground primary tap on 221st Avenue. We are also replacing two shorter primary overhead taps with underground secondary; this will help out with some trees and clearance issues.  We were visually locating the underground feeders at the Field Services Building when a splice failed on the primary wire causing an outage. The failure occurred while excavating with the Vac-tron which uses high pressure water and vacuum to suck the mud out of the hole to aid in finding the wire. We figure when the contractor back-filled the splice pit years ago there may have been garbage with sharp objects in it which cut into the splice over time, and just happened to go bad while excavating.  Finished up the necessary repairs due to the June 11 storm.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: ERMU Commission MEETING DATE: July 11, 2017 SUBJECT: Staff Update ACTION REQUESTED: None

FROM: Mike Tietz –Technical Services Superintendent AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: 6.1d

DISCUSSION: 

In June, The Locating department had a total of 596 locate tickets consisting of eight emergency tickets, 14 cancellations, 9 meetings, 512 normal tickets and 51 updated tickets. This is a 9% decrease in volume of tickets from the previous month. Locate staff has been assisting the county with locating fiber near the Government Center.



Electric Technicians continue with the meter reading, power bill, substation checks, hanging red-tags, meter read-outs, dealing with meter and off-peak issues, as well as delivering and installing new meters to commercial customers. Staff has been working on programming recloser controls in preparation for the energizing of the Waco 2 Substation. Staff also continues to work through details of the upcoming multi-billing cycle transition that will be implemented towards the end of the year. Meters have been ordered in preparation for acquisition Areas 3 and 4. On June 19, Lead Electrical Technician Michael Price gave notice that he will be retiring. His last day is July 10.



The power plant staff did the monthly engine run in the last week of June. All engines, with the exception of Engine 1, were run. The faulty synchronizer motor on Engine 1 was repaired by Alliance Machine and reinstalled by staff. Attached is the invoice. There is still another issue that will require further investigation to find the problem.



Mapping department continues to enter GPS points and attribute points for all of our systems assets within the ESRI ArcView GIS system. In addition, staff set-up map book and inventory barcoding on iPads for the linemen, updated GSOC territory boundaries in anticipation of the Area 3 & 4 acquisition, and acquired GPS coordinates for the Otsego streetlights for the proposed transfer.

FROM: Eric Volk – Water Superintendent AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: 6.1e

DISCUSSION:  Delivered six new water meters.  Sealed the water meter, and took curb stop ties from eight water services.  Completed 25 BACTI/Total Chlorine Residual Samples o All confirmed negative for Coliform Bacteria. o Bacteriological/Disinfectant Residual Monthly Report submitted to the MDH  Completed 20 routine fluoride samples o All samples met MDH standards. o Submitted MDH Fluoride Report  Submitted MPCA Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) for the Diesel Generation Plant.  The WTP #7 Expansion has some paint touch-ups, a few programming issues, and some landscaping details to tie up before the job will be complete. The project will not reach final completion until the fall when the final round of paint touch-ups can be completed.  Continuing to work with Kjolhaug Environmental and Kodet Architectural to get the storm water pond at the field services building removed from the wetland. If we’re successful at getting this removed, we’ll save money when it comes time to mitigate for the wetland that is on the property when we start working on the expansion.  We concluded our first round of leak detection for the year. There were eleven fire hydrants that were leaking, one service, and one water main. We have started the second round of leak detection which will encompass the area of our system east of Highway 169; once this is complete, the entire city will have gone through leak detection process. Starting next year, the entire city will be surveyed for leaks on an annual basis. The water operators have repaired the hydrants that were identified. We are in the process of working with the customer to get their service repaired, and are planning on repairing our water main leak in the coming months.

UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: ERMU Commission MEETING DATE: July 11, 2017 SUBJECT: Staff Update ACTION REQUESTED: None

FROM: Tom Sagstetter – Conservation & Key Accounts Manager AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: 6.1f

DISCUSSION:  The level two charger has been installed and we are working on promoting it through online networks including Plugshare.com and ChargePoint.  Attended a Drive Electric Minnesota meeting in Minneapolis. This is a group of utilities and non-governmental organizations that are working to promote electric vehicles and charging infrastructure in Minnesota. Participants in the organization include Xcel Energy, Connexus Energy, Great Plains Institute, Fresh Energy, Center for Energy and the Environment, and many others. Our Fleetcarma study is interesting to them since they have identified city fleet vehicles as a great way to promote the technology.  The cycled air conditioning transition plan will begin in July. Customers participating in the program will receive a letter explaining the transition away from direct load control to behavior based programs. Included with the letter will be a flyer promoting the benefits of WIFI programmable thermostats and a rebate application for $25 towards the purchase of one. Customers that choose to take advantage of the thermostat rebate will be removed from the program once the rebate has been applied to their account, and will receive no additional monthly bill credits from that point forward.  Completed the filming of a video to help customers figure out where and how they use energy in their home using the ERMU electric meter. This video is being developed to provide a resource for customers to determine what appliances and habits have the greatest impacts on their energy use. The video is in currently in the editing stage.  Attended the 25 Anniversary gathering for Fresh Energy. Fresh Energy is focused on environmental advocacy and does a great deal to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy. They are a strong voice in the state and there was a great turnout at the event. Fresh Energy is a great supporter of EVs.  Participated in a panel discussion at the League of MN Cities conference in Rochester, MN. We spoke on the benefits of Climate Smart Municipalities and the value of learning from what Germany has accomplished and why they have accomplished it. Energy independence is a big driver for many policy and cultural decision.
