Additionally, PG&E is reqUired. to provide 15 days advance notice from the date of this notice. before the electric service account(s) shown above is subject to potential rotating outages. Accordingly, the account(s) shown above will be subject to irotating outages commencingdon.May 3, 2001. PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THEACCOUNT(S) SHOWN ABOVE HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED AS NONESSENTIAL USE AND WILL BE INCLUDED, 'IN PG&E'S ROTATING OUTAGE. BLOCKS AND SUBJECT TO NONCOMPLIANCE PENALTIES, UNLESS ONE OF THE CONDITIONS FOR EXCLUSION IS APPLICABLE (SEE BELOW). While PG&E, strives to provide the most reliable electric service possible, please be advised that iPG&E does not and cannot guarantee a continuous a/silt/Client supply of electricity or freedom from interruption: This proviso is contained in PG&E's Tariff Rule 14 Even outside the rotating outage scenario, you could experience an unanticipated and unannounced interruption in your service due to • numerous factors, including for example an earthquake, fire, windstorm, lightning:strike, or even a car colliding with a power pole. If you believe an interruption would create fa significant threat to public safety or health, we advise you to lsecure sufficient backup generation to guarantee electricity availability in those exigent ciredmstafices. You may choose to seek the services of'a qualified consultant who can offer guidance and advice regarding the 'installation and operation of appropriateeqiiiprnent to enableiyour business to operate safely April 18; 2001 • • Page 2 during outages of short duration, or at a minimum, to safely shut down your operations. CLASSIFICATION AS NONESSENTIAL.USE.CUSTOMER, Based upon PG&E's records, the electric account(s) shown above does not meet any of the definitions of an essential use customer set forth by the CPUC. The enclosure explains the CPUC's priority system for rotating outages, including the nine enumerated categories of essential use customers. PG&E is authorized to exempt from rotating outages, only those customers who fit into one of the. enumerated categories., Use the following procedure if you believe that one or more of the account(s) should be classified as an essential use. Please direct any questions. or 'disputes regarding your classification to the Rotating Outage Representative at Mail Code B8M, P.O. Box 770000, San Francisco, CA 94177-0001. If we do not receive a written objection within 15 days of the date of this notice, your classification shall be considered undisputed. You may bring unresolved disputes to the CPUC by fling a formal complaint with the CPUC pursuant to Rules 9 through 13.2 of the CPUC's Rules of Practice and Procedure. Your complaint must allege and show that the utility has acted or failed to act in violation of law, or in violation of any order or rule of the Commission, by the utility 'improperly implementing, or failing to follow, the Commission's adopted priority system. These complaints will be filed and processed using the CPUC's expedited complaint procedure. The CPUC Public Advisor's Office can assist you in filing a formal complaint. You may reach the Public Advisor's Office at the following addresses: 505 Van Ness Avenue, Room 5303, San Francisco, CA 94102 (e-mail public:advisor @cpuc.ca.gov) or 320 West Fourth Street, Suite:500, Los Angeles, CA 90013 (e-mail public.advisor.la @cpucca.gov). • If you are not considered an essential customer, the CPUC has authorized the following conditions for possible exclusion from rotating outages. However, as is the case for all, customers, exclusion from rotating outages cannot be taken as an absolute guarantee against exposure to rotating outages. For example, under emergency conditions? PG&E might be required to de-energize a portion of any • circuit out of operational necessity. Therefore, regardless of whether you granted an exemption, PG&E suggests that critical loads or services that cannot be interrupted without undue hardship be backed up by an onsite electrical April 18, 2001 Page 3 emergency system, such as a Agenerator, UPS, etc. Because of the increased likelihood of rolling outages this summer, PG&E also recommends that you review your'emergency plan under OSHA.and,ensure that all necessary steps are taken; to protect the workplace against any injury to personnel health or safety arising'oUt Of electrical 'outages. CUSTOMERS SUPPLYING;POWER TO THE GRID Transmission level customer t that are 'supplying .power to thè grid in excess of their load at the time of the outage may be 'excluded from the rotating outage (i.e. net supplier). Based on 'PG&E's, records/the account(s) shown,above is not eligible to for thiS exclusion. RECOMMENDATION BY OSHA OR OESIAND;APPROVAL BY TI:-.1E CPUC The 'Occupational Health and Safety Administration(OSHA). 'or Office of Emergency Services-(OES) may submit a recommendation to PG&E regarding a need to exempt an 'industrial customer from rotating outages to protect public health and safety. The recommendation shall include remediation measures needed by the customer to safely, shut down its facilities and 'a timeframe to complete the$0, Measures or a silowing that no other reasonable means to protect public'health and safety are available other than exemption from rotating outages. PG&E may then file, and serve an application or adviCe. letter:Seeking- CM:1C authorikation,to implement the OSHA or OES recornmendatiOn. PARTICIPATION IN AN OBMC PLAN At this tine, the .CPUC:has not approved PG&E'sOptional Binding'Mandatory Curtailment (OBMC)tariff but approval is expected shortly. The draft version of the OBMC availableqmlineat;PG&E's internet website at www.boecomitustomer servicesibOsinesSitariffsiedvicethtml/2001-e.htmk „ Participation in an approve OBMC plan will ordinarily exempt qualifying,electric customers from being shut doWn during scheduled rotating bUtages. Customers participating in an approved OBMC plan must agree to contribute,dependable; artial load reductions^every time rotating outages are necessary. Participating ' tiansfnissiohlevei-customers must-establish a planTwhich ensures that the entire substation (or'facility) is able to achieve load reductions of,5% increments, up to a maximum of15%,;beSedon recent loading '16els on the participating account or facility. These partial load reductions would be required concurrently with each occurrence of rotating'outages regardless of the rotating outage bloc hbrribers'affected in,anyparticular instance. The participating;aistornerarnust April 18, 2001 • Page 4 be able to achieve the requested load reductions within fifteen minutes of notification to curtail. Customers failing to fully comply with this requirement would be assessed a penalty of'$6.00 per kilowatt-hour for any usage in excess of the required load reduction. The benefits of electing to ;participate in an approved OBMC plan is that, under ordinary circumstances, your' commitment to making regular load reductions under the approved OBMC plan would replace your exposure to total service interruption during most=scheduled rotating outages.. ROTATING.OUTAGES The CPUC has required; that transmission level customers; not otherwise exempt from rotating outages must respond promptly to the utility's requests to drop load. As a transmission level ,customer, you must achieve the required load reductions by operating your equipment in a "manner that does not open the transmission system, or otherwise compromise-its integrity. As long as you fully comply with • each order to drop load, PG&E will not, under normal rotating block outage plans, operate its equipment to implement your load reductions. If you refuse or fail to drop load, the CPUC has authorized PG&E to install, at your expense, automatic switching equipment controlled by the utility. A customer who refuses or fails to drop load before the "switch is installed shall be assessed a penalty of $6/kVUh for all kilowatt-hours takeiroff the grid. Your account will be assigned.a rotating outage block within the next few weeks. Your PG&E account representative,:if one has been assigned, will inform you of your rotating outage block and youiwill receive a follow-up letter. If you have any questions, please contact your account representative if one has been assigned, or call 1-800-468-4743 and press.the number 2. All written ;correspondence should be sent to PG&E'S Rotating Outage Representative . at Mail Code B8M, P.O.

In Decision 9448 (1978), the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) createcla priority' system in which certain customers who provide essential pubic health, safety, and security services should normally be exempt from rotating outages The priority•syStem was modified on April 3, 2001, pursuant to Decision-01-04-006. The relevant portions of the new modified Criteria provide as follows: A, Government and other agencies providing essential fire, police, and prison.services. • B. Government agencies essential to the national defense. CI -Hospitals • • D. Communication utilities, as they relate to public health, welfare, and security, including telephone: utilities. E. Navigation, communication traffic control, and landing and departure facilities for commercial air and sea operations. F. Electric utility facilities and supporting fuel and fuel transportation services critical to continuity ofelactric. power system operation. G. 'Radio and television broadcasting stations use for • " broadcasting emergencwrriessageal, instruction, and ,other public:information related to the electric curtailment emergency. H. Water and.sewagettreatment utilities may request partial or complete [rotating oOtage] exemption from . electric utilities ihtimes•Ofemergency identified as requiring theihserVice, such as fire fighting. I. AreaS tehveci by" networks, at utilities' discretion. The:CPUC noted that even for cUstOmert, qp]rotectibn cannot be guaranteed because daily circuit customer's outage block•and priority classification:" • • Backup/Standby Generation, In 1982, the Commission directed the utilities "to evaluate the adequacy of the standby generatingsequipment Of [essential] customers and to consider removing - them from the lists of essential use customers:" Decision No 82-06-021 at p,12. The Commission reasoned that "[essential use],customers that have sufficient standby generating equipment for their essential load should not be routinely protected from rotating outages because tfis:double protection may be jeopardizing other equally essential customers at the higher load reduction levels." For that reason,some essentialcustomers'inaybe "nonexempt" — that is, subject to rotating outages — if they have,sufficient and adequate backup generation to support their critical activities for up to two hours, the expected typical upper duration,of`a rotating outage. Special Rules for Hospitals: On March 23, 2001, in an Assigned Commissioner's Ruling, the utilities were ordered to provide an,automaticand unqualified exemption for all hospitals with 100 or more beds, whether or not those hospitals have'any'backup generating facilities. That Ruling was subsequently modified on April 3, 2001, in Decision 01-04-006 to exempt all hospitals from rotating outages regardless of the number of beds. Special Rules for Water and Sewage Customers With regard to water and,sewag e treatment facilities, the CPUC clarified its position in Decision No 92315, concluding that such customers would not be automatically exempted from rotating outages. However, water and sewage facilities may request an exemption from a specific rotating outage if an emergency exists [requiring their service]." The CPUC.noted.that the utilities were expected to grant such requests, but that water and sewage facilities were not to request an exemption "unless absolutely required to ensure the public's health and safety." Decision No. 92315 at p. 4., PG&E Implementation of the•Commission's Priority System To implement.the CPUC's Priority System.for Rotating Outages, PG&E has exempted from rotating outages all circuits which serve identified essential use customers.(except those who are nonexempt). In the unlikely event an essential use customer'.is inadvertently interrupted due to a rotating.outage, PG&E has a toll-free number 1-800-743-5000, which the essential use customer can call to report the outage. If feasible, PG&E will restore+service to the essential use customer: • Watet and sewage customers,may also•use the toll-free numberto call if an emergency arises which requires their service,;such as firefighting. PG&E'will take:all steps necessary to restore service as-quickly as possible. • PG&E"takes steps to ensure its,essential use customer list is up=to-date and accurate. PG&E annually reviews its essentialtuse customer list to verifythat each.. customer the essential use customer list should continueto,.ber,included. PG&E makes contact with each essential use customer to ensure that�(a) its' business functions have not changed in a manner which would eliminatefffrom the Commission-designated categories of"essential use customers"and (b)tthere. has been no change in theFsufficiency or adequacy of its backup generation which would affect whetheran;essential use customer should be•exempt. Any customerwho is;found to.need reclassification (either essential to:nonessential or nonessential to essential) receives a notification 15 days in:advance,of'the effective date of.reclassification. In addition,;PG&E revietivs each new service turn-on request to identify those • new customers who May meet the CPUC definition for "essential use customers." PG&E:representatives make;contact with those identified customers to determine whether they should •be included`on the essential use customer list. Any u tomes classified asran essential l use customer receives written notification of •itf-classification. • • • • RECEF • i I II9� `-QEl rr II MAY 0 9 2001 I • LOCAL AGENCY'FORMATIONCOMMISSION CITY MANAGER ! :575 ADMINISTRATION DRIVE ROOM 104A,SANTAROSA,.CA:95403' (7071;56572577 fAX+(707) 565 73778' STEVEN J.SHARPE.

As you are•aware, the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Government Reorganization Act of2000 (Government Code Section 56000 et seq.) revises LAFCO operations. Four provisions of the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Act affect the operations of LAFCOs regarding funding staffing and facilities:According to the Act, these provisions are intended to make the Commission neutral and independent`by requiring: • 1.

County, cities and independent<special,district cost sharing of LAFCO budget: 4. Commission approves'its own budget. • LAFCO currently conducts its:operations according to a'Memorandum of'Understanding (MOU) with the County providing the following: • 1. The County Administrator's Office provides LAFCO professional and clerical staffing. Steve Sharpe is the Executive Officer and. proJides rrianagement and administrative support.to the Commission. A part-time Assistant Executive Officer and Secretary are-being recruited for the day-to-day operations of the Commission. 2. The County Administrator'sS:Office,provides facilities+and equipment for•the LAFCO function. 3. The County Counsel's Office provides legal services to.the.Comrhission and its staff. • The Commission requested that staff analyze alternative staffing and facility plans for FY 2001-02. The analysis includes the preliminary,costs and feasibility,of county dependent and independent staffing and faci1it1ec, LAFCO staff has collected -snipe genera( information iegarding 'issuees and costs. The Commission is requesting additional input in order to decide whether to pursue additional study to establish an independentLAFCO: The following is a summary'of information.obtained from CALAFCO,(California,Association of,LAFCOs) and another 'local governmental' agency: the Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA). SCTA staffing and operational needs,,are similar to LAFCO's. The SCTA relocated its operations.independent from the Sonoma County Permit:and Resources-Department in 1999. Staffing At a minimum the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg.Act requires' that LAFCOs actively appoint their staff rather than relying on theidefault that'the.County provide staffing. The Act describes alternatives including: • • • Employ p Y by may be p i lea • Contracting with the County for executive officer legal counsel, other staff and • Em to staff old direct. b the commission who may be housed'.in rivate offices leased'by the. ,commission or intoffices,,rented from the county or some;other public agency. • 'Contracting With an independent firm forexecutlde officer, legal counsel or both. Staffing needs, budget.constraints, 'local politics and other conditions will determine what works best for each LAFCO. Here are"4 examples: 1 San Mateo LAFCO has a contract with.the County for County staff services toLAFCO. 2. Orange LAFCO has a contract between the County and LAFCO defining LAFCO employee .

An extraordinary cost will be for the Auditor who will have to determine and bill agencies for'.:LAFCO funding. The.Auditor is projecting a $15,000 cost for FY 2001-02. Counsel is'projecting"a cost fori,FY 20Q1-02;0f$30,000 due to policy development associated with new laws and 2 complex district formations. Reductions may occur in the following fiscal year. As of spring of this year costs for leasing private,office space will range from about $1.65 to $1.70 per square foot according to the County real estate.:rrianager: These .figures are based on local rental rates and on a proposal completed ,recently for relocation: of the Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA). Space and equipment needs for LAFCO may be similar. The SCTA is staffed with 3 people and has leased approximately 1000 ;square feet in downtown Santa Rosa. Annual rent is approximately $20,000-$25,000 per year. Additional "one-time" costs .would be necessary for tenant irprovements, furnishings, and equipment and moving, expenses. These costs could vary substantially. The SCTA's "one-time" costs range from $7,600 to $21 000 dependent on levels of improvements. In addition to staffing costs, LAFCO would contractforcbUnsel, auditing and accounting services.
