SECTION II
GENERATING EQU IPFgiNT
1. Each system will f~nance, install, pay for, and operate the
gene~ating equ~pmen~ in its own system.
l, Each system is responsible for the maintenance of its
gene~ating facilities such that the normal maximum retin~of its gen-
erating equipment exceeds its annual peak load by
3. i The predicted peak load of each system for any year multiplied
by 1.15 shall be known as that system's Capacity
Oblig~'eion for that year. ~ '
4. Generation, Cransmisszon, and substation equipment shall be
insta'lled as required =o keep the Pool firm. A firm Pool is defined here-
in as one that can sustain the loss of its largest generating unit, or any
transmission line, and still have available generating equipment whose normal
maximum rating exceeds its predicted peak load and losses as determined by
studies acceptable to the Pool Coranittee.
5. Within thirty days after execution of this Contract by all
participants, each system shall report to the Pool Committee an ztem~zed list
of the units of generating equipment that zt chooses to dedicate to the Pool
and, ,if it so chooses, specify the duration of time for which this capacity
is dedicated. Equipment and/or Contracts for firm power so dedicated may
not be withdrawn during the specified tune except as provided hereinafter.
6. I All generating equipment shall be rated in terms of net megs-
watt output.'
a) Normal maximum rating shall be the maximum continuous
net output of the unit.
b) Emergency rating shall be the maximum net output that can
be supplied for a four-hour period following normal
maximum Output.
7. Each system shall rate its generating equipment as to its normal
maximum output and its emergency output, and report same to the Pool Committee.
a) Withi~ the first three months after execution of this agree-
ment by all parties, each system shall report to the Pool
Committee the normal maximum and emergency rating of all
of its e~isting generating equipment. This data shall be
substantiated by teat data satisfactory to the Pool Com-
Within three months after installation of new generatxng
equipment, the system or systems installing same shall
report to the Pool Committee the aforementzoned ratings
of the equipment. This data shall be substantiated in
the same manner as specified above for existing equip-
8, The Pool participants responsible for unit installation shall
be the participants whose predicted loads exceed their ~apacity Obligations.
9. IntheeventeachPoolparticipant
Pool~wlll hOC be firm, the system with the lowest percent excess gen-
eration shall be responsible for a unit installation.
10. Unit sizes shall be determined by each system by its inde-
pendent study of its generation needs taking into consideration its res-
ponsibilities as set Out hereinto before.
I ~ 11. On or before January 1st of each year, each system shall
submit to the Pool Committee the peak load predictions for its system for
the next five-year period. Predictions shall be substantia~ed by past peak
loads experienced and other supporting data, and shall not be less than a
straight line projection on semi-log paper of the average of the plot of
past.peaks unless approved by a majority vote of the Pool Committee. Pol-
lowing approval or modification by the Pool Gormmittee of these predictions,
the dispatcher shall provide the Pool Committee with a five-year peak load
prediction. On this basis, and i~ accordance with the methods herein stated,
the System or systems responsible for generating unit installations for the
next:four-year period shall be determined.
12. By June 1st, three years in advance of the installation year,
the system or systems responsible for unit additions shall submit to the Pool
Committee their determination of unit size. By June 1st, two years in advance
of the scheduled installation date, the system or systems due to install units
shall prove to the Pool Committee that bonds are approved, loans approved,
or that other satisfac~ory financinE arrangements are made. By June 1st of
the year immediately preceding the unit installation date, the system or
systems involved shall prove to the Pool Committee that the major items of
equipment are on order and show that there is a construction schedule that
will assure the unit's availability for service prior to June lac of the year
it iS scheduled for installatlQn.
13. Spinning reserve requirements shall be scheduled day by day
throughout the year as required to keep the system firm at all times, and to
diwl~e the spinnin~ reserve obligation among the partic~pants in an equit-
able[manner. It shall be divided among the Pool participants in a manner
to provide economic utilization of equipment and to divide the machine rating
hours among the systems in proportion to the largest unit in each system.
The dispatcher shall make monthly reports to the participants indicating the
math,ina rating hours of spinning reserve carried by each system during the
preceding month.
1~. During system disturbances due to unit failures within the system
or t~ansmission line switching~ each system a~rees to maintain its generating
equipment in service until authorized by the dispatcher to remove units from
servliOe or to separate its system from the Pool. It is the intent of this
provlision Co have each system maintain its units in service until the system
is ~elayed off. Questions as to relaying facilities, relay settings, and
re~&ted matters shall be investigated by the Pool Committee. When indicated
to be ne~eesary~ the Co~iCCea aha11 have':he required studies made co deter-
0 0
mine the proper relay settings and other improvements to correct de-
ficiencies in the system operation
15. In the event that the system suffers the failure of a unit,
substation, transmission line, or any other equipment that causes the
system or any part thereof to b% unfzrm, each Pool participant agrees
upon the call of the dispatcher~ immediagely start add%tional units and to
furnish to the limits of its emergency ratings such power and energy as may
be required. Payments for such power and energy shall be computed in
ao¢ordanca with the rate schedule of Paragraph 2 of Section V
16. Any system may retire from the Pool any dedicated units, ded-
icate~ transmission lines, or dedicated contractual agreements that are

SECTION IV
SALES AND PURCHASES
1. Each Pool participant may purchase Supplemental, Emergency,
or Mazntenance Energy from any source outside the Pool it chooses suboect to
the provisions of Paragraph 2 of Sectzon VI If such purchases utlllze trans-
mission or other facilities of other Pool members, arrangements satzsfactory
to the Pool member owning such facilitzes must be made. No such facilities

Pool participant may use its undedicated generating or contracted capacity to
furnish itself Supplemental, Emergency, or Mainte~nce Energy.
2. Each Pool participant agrees to sell to the Pool as Supplemental
Energy a~y excess its normal maximum capacity exceeds its peak load prov~ding
the purchaser ia utilizing all of its available dedicated capacity to its
normal maximum capacity.
3. If a Pool participant purchases Supplemental Energy from the
Pool, the rates for such energy shall be those provided in Paragraph 1 of
Section V. Such purchases shall be made from the Pool participants wzth
excess capacity in proportion to the excess their normal maximum capacity
exceeds their predicted peak loads. Predicted peak load shall be that pre-
dicted in the latest estimate as provided to the dispatcher in accordance with
Pargraph 11 of Section II. The dispatcher shall schedule these purchases
in a manner to provide the energy from the system or systems best able to
supply the energy. Demand charges shall be paid to the systems ~n accordance with
the prov, is~on8 above. Energy charges shall be pa~d to the system or systems
supplying the energy. The dispatcher shall schedule these purchases prior to the
peak load season in a manner meeting the approval of the Pool ~o~zttee.
4. For the first four hours of an emergency condition, the dispatcher
may arrange for the delivery of the energy from any of the partlc~pants with
capacity available ~o supply it. Purchases of emergency energy after a four-
hour period shall be mede from the other participants with excess capaczty
in the proportion their normal maximum capacity exceeds their predicted peak
loads.
5. Each Pool participant agrees to sell to the Pool any excess
its normal maximum capacity exceeds its load for the purpose of supplying other
Pool participants with maintenance power during periods of scheduled unit
maintenance. The ra~es for such sales shall be those provided in Paragraph
3 of Section V.
