TRANSMISSION AGENCY OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
AMENDED AND RESTATED PROJECT AGREEMENT NO.5
FOR THE PARTICIPATION IN THE WESTTRANS OASIS
PREAMBLE
This Project Agreement No. 5 ("Agreement") originally entered into as of
August 23, 2004, and amended and restated effective as of May 1, 2006, by and among
the Transmission Agency of Northern California, hereinafter referred to as "TANC"; and
the Cities of Alameda, Healdsburg, Lodi, Lompoc, Palo Alto, Redding, Roseville, Santa
Clara, and Ukiah; the Modesto Irrigation District; the Turlock Irrigation District; and the
Plumas-Sierra Rural Electric Cooperative, TANC Members hereinafter collectively
referred to as the "Participating Members," with regard to the following:
RECITALS
WHEREAS:
A. TANC owns Transfer Capability on the California Oregon Transmission
Project that is not under the control of the California Independent System Operator.
B. TANC desires to enhance transmission availability in California by
making the Participating Members' unused and unencumbered Transfer Capability
available for use by other entities in an open and efficient manner and in accordance
with the TANC Open Access Transmission Tariff.
C. .On March 31, 2004, a voluntary coalition of transmission providing
entities in the Western Interconnection began offering access to their transmission
systems on a single OASIS site, known as the wesTTrans OASIS. This cooperative effort
includes alignment of business practices and processes between all transmission
providers to the greatest extent possible, while retaining the individual Open Access
1
Transmission Tariffs of each transmission provider. A primary benefit of this effort is the
enhancement of the transmission market within the Western Interconnection.
D. TANC and its Participating Members have concluded that it is in their
interest and the interest of electricity customers in the state for TANC to participate as a
Transmission Provider on the wesTTrans OASIS. Based on discussions with Open
Access Technologies, Inc. the operator of the wesTTrans OASIS, TANC has concluded
that TANC's designation of a TANC OASIS Administrator will be necessary to facilitate
TANC Members' sales of available Transfer Capability on wesTTrans OASIS.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, TANC and the TANC Members that will be Participating
Members and have signed below hereby agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. SERVICE AGREEMENTS
TANC is hereby authorized and directed to act on behalf of the Participating
Members to become a participant in the wesTTrans OASIS, including the negotiation
and execution of a service agreement with Open Access Technologies, Inc, for TANC's
participation in the wesTTrans OASIS. TANC is additionally authorized and directed to
act on behalf of the Participating Members to designate and execute a service agreement
with a TANC OASIS Administrator to facilitate TANC's participation in the wesTTrans
OASIS.
2. SERVICE INITIATION AND OTHER FEES.
A schedule of service fees that includes an initiation fee and a monthly fee
associated with services that Open Access Technologies, Inc. will perform, in order for
TANC to participate in the wesTTrans OASIS, is included in Exhibit A. Fees associated
2
with the TANC OASIS Administrator functions shall be set forth in the service
agreement between TANC and the TANC OASIS Administrator.
Any fees related to the termination of this Agreement shall be allocated to
Participating Members in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.
3. ALLOCATION OF PROJECT COSTS TO PARTICIPATING MEMBERS
All costs and expenses associated with this Agreement and all fees or charges for
wesTTrans OASIS and the TANC OASIS Administrator service initiation, and
wesTTrans OASIS and the TANC OASIS Administrator monthly service will be
allocated to the Participating Members in accordance with their Project Agreement No. 3
Participation Percentages prorated after subtracting the percentages of the TANC
Members that do not execute this Agreement. Schedules of fees associated with such
services are located in Exhibit A and the service agreement between TANC and the
TANC OASIS Administrator. TANG, upon receipt of such invoices from Open Access
Technologies, Inc. (OATI), and the TANC OASIS Administrator will allocate such
initiation and service costs to Participating Members. The allocation percentage for each
Member executing this agreement is shown in Exhibit B, attached to and incorporated
into this Agreement.
4. ALLOCATION OF NET REVENUES
For the purposes of this Project Agreement No. 5, the term "Transmission Offer"
shall mean a specified whole number of megawatts, that in compliance with the
procedures under this Agreement, Project Agreement No. 3, and those applicable
provisions of the wesTTrans OASIS, the WesTTrans contract with TANC, the service
agreement between TANC and the TANC OASIS Administrator, and the service
agreement between TANC and Open Access Technologies, Inc., is released by the
Participating Member to TANC to be offered for sale, for a period, as designated by the
Participating Member. The time period of any Transmission Offer must coincide with
the time period of the actual sale or sales TANC makes, regardless of any difference
3
between the amount offered and the amount TANC succeeds in selling. The TANC
OASIS Administrator shall allocate to each Participating Member the revenue received,
net of expenses associated with the Transmission Offer, from sale of Transfer Capability
by the TANC OASIS Administrator in proportion to each Participating Member's
Transmission Offer. In making such allocation, when more than one Participating
Member has made a Transmission Offer, the TANC OASIS Administrator shall allocate
to each Participating Member that made a Transmission Offer, the revenue derived by
multiplying the total revenue received from the sale or sales coinciding with the time
period during which more than one Transmission Offer has been made, by the fraction
resulting from the division of each such Participating Member's Transmission Offer by
the sum of the Transmission Offers made during the coincident time period of the sale
or sales.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, should a Participating Member
(Purchasing Member) purchase transmission through the wesTTrans OASIS site for any
period, the revenue from such a purchase shall first be allocated to that Purchasing
Member to the extent that the Purchasing Member has made a Transmission Offer for
the period. If the transmission purchase is greater than the amount of the Purchasing
Member's Transmission Offer, the remaining revenue shall be allocated to the other
Participating Members who submitted Transmission Offers in the same time period by
multiplying the remaining revenue received from the sale by the fraction resulting from
the division of each such Participating Member Transmission Offer by the sum of the
Transmission Offers made during the time period of the purchase, excluding the
Transmission Offer of the Purchasing Member. For the purpose of allocating revenue
from other transmission purchases during the period, the Purchasing Member's
Transmission Offer will be reduced by the amount it purchased through the wesTTrans
OASIS.
The TANC Commission may modify the allocation of revenue as delineated in
the preceding paragraphs by an affirmative vote of the Participating Members
representing 65% of the Cost Allocation Percentages as indicated in Exhibit B.
H
Revenue resulting from the sale of the Participating Members' offered Transfer
Capability shall be distributed by the TANC OASIS Administrator to each Participating
Member not in default of any obligation to TANC, according to the timelines contained
in the service agreement between TANC and the TANC OASIS Administrator. The
TANC OASIS Administrator may set off amounts due TANC or the TANC OASIS
Administrator from revenues due a Participating Member in default in accordance with
Section 9 of this agreement.
5. COORDINATION WITH TANC OASIS ADMINISTRATOR
Participating Members agree to coordinate with the TANC OASIS Administrator
to (1) provide information regarding available Transfer Capability, credit policies, and
other information as may be reasonably deemed necessary by the TANC OASIS
Administrator in the performance of its duties to facilitate TANC's participation on
behalf of Participating Members in wesTTrans OASIS, to collect the revenues from
transmission customers, and (2) to perform the financial settlements among
Participating Members of fees and revenues associated with the participation in the
wesTTrans OASIS.
Each Participating Member agrees to provide to the TANC OASIS Administrator the
available Transfer Capability it desires to post for sale on the wesTTrans OASIS as a
Transmission Offer in accordance with the procedures, timelines, and formats as
mutually agreed to by the Participating Members and the TANC OASIS Administrator,
as those may be modified from time to time by agreement of the participating members.
6. TERM AND TERMINATION.
This Agreement shall take effect as of the date hereof and shall remain in full
force and effect for a minimum of twelve months from the date that TANC initiates
service on the wesTTrans OASIS. Following the initial twelve-month period, any
Participating Member may terminate its participation in this Agreement upon sixty days
written notice to TANC, after which time TANC shall no longer participate on behalf of
61
the terminating Participating Member in the wesTTrans OASIS. The terminating
Participating Member shall be obligated to pay its share of all project costs and liabilities
pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement incurred in connection with the provision of
services provided up to the date when the Participating Member's termination becomes
effective, as well as for contingent liabilities that occurred prior to but may arise after the
date of termination, regardless of when the fees are assessed to TANC or the
contingency is liquidated, and in accordance with the Participation Percentages shown
in Exhibit B if fixed in nature, or the Schedule of Service Fees, if variable. The
terminating Participating Member not in default shall be entitled to its share of all
transmission revenues derived from TANC's sales of Transfer Capability on the
wesTTrans OASIS made up to the date when the Participating Member's termination
becomes effective, in accordance with the revenue allocation procedures described in
Section 4 of this Agreement.
In the event that one or more Participating Members terminates its participation
in this Agreement, the remaining Participating Members may elect to adjust the cost
allocation percentages shown in Exhibit B. If by the date that any Member's termination
of its participation in this Agreement becomes effective the remaining Participating
Members have not agreed to adjust the allocation percentages shown in Exhibit B,
TANC shall terminate its participation in the wesTTrans OASIS in accordance with
termination provisions contained in the service agreement in place between TANC and
Open Access Technologies, Inc, or its successor and with the TANC OASIS
Administrator.
This Agreement shall automatically continue for an indefinite term unless
terminated pursuant to the above provisions.
