Indigenous Peoples’ Day Proclamation
Recommendation:
Acknowledge and proclaim October 10, 2022 as Indigenous Peoples' Day in the City of
Vernon.
Background:
Indigenous Peoples' Day was first proposed in 1977 by a delegation of Native Nations to the
United Nations-sponsored International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous
Populations in the Americas. Since then, each year, more and more cities, counties and
states across the country have proclaimed the second Monday in October as Indigenous
Peoples’ Day to celebrate and honor Native American peoples and commemorate their
histories and cultures. In October of 2021, President Joe Biden also issued a Presidential
Proclamation recognizing Indigenous Peoples’ Day and acknowledging Indigenous peoples’
resilience and strength as well as the immeasurable positive impact that they have made on
every aspect of American society.
The City of Vernon recognizes that the contributions that Indigenous people have made
throughout history — in public service, entrepreneurship, scholarship, the arts, and countless
other fields — are integral to our community, our culture, and our society and currently
observes the second Monday in October as a holiday in honor of Indigenous Peoples’ Day.
The proclamation recognizing October 10, 2022 as Indigenous Peoples’ Day in the City of
Vernon is intended to bring awareness and understanding to the local community about the
history, ongoing struggles, culture and positive contributions of Indigenous people in our
community.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

Commemorative Check Presentation
Recommendation:
Present a commemorative check to Huntington Park High School's football program.
Background:
On September 23, 2022, the City was approached by the Athletic Director for Huntington Park
High School, with a request to help fund necessary equipment purchases for the school’s
football program. Huntington Park High School is a part of the Los Angeles Unified School
District and serves students that reside in the local community including Vernon, Huntington
Park, Bell, Walnut Park and portions of unincorporated Los Angeles County. Due to recent
theft/vandalism of the school’s athletics facilities, a significant amount of the football team’s
safety equipment, including helmets, was either stolen or irreparably damaged. As a result of
this incident, the team currently lacks an adequate supply of equipment to accommodate its 65
student athletes and is forced to share/alternate use of equipment to make do. With the fall
football season underway, the school faced an immediate need to purchase critical safety
equipment and requested financial assistance from the City as due to budget cutbacks the
school lacks the funding to meet their needs.
Supporting student athletes is important as participation in high school athletics can have
long-lasting benefits for the students and the community. High school sports promote fitness
and physical health, develop leadership and teamwork skills, improve academic performance
and stress management abilities, encourage the pursuit of higher education and ultimately
foster the development of productive and engaged citizens. Thus, providing financial support
for the school’s athletic program serves a public purpose as many of the students that attend
Huntington Park High School reside in the local community. In response to their request, the
City provided financial support in the amount of $12,000 to Huntington Park High School to
fund the necessary equipment purchases for the football program. A commemorative check
will be presented to the school's Athletic Director to memorialize the City's support.
Fiscal Impact:
Sufficient funds to support the Huntington Park High School football program are available in
the General Fund, Community Development Account No. 011.1070.550000 for FY 2022-23.
Attachments:
None.

Recommendation:
Ratify the findings in Resolution No. 2021-36 authorizing continued conduct of City Council
and all other City legislative body meetings via teleconference, in accordance with Assembly
Bill 361 (AB 361), due to continued public health and safety concerns caused by COVID-19.
Background:
Assembly Bill 361 (AB 361) authorizes local agencies to use teleconferencing without

legislative bodies must continue to meet remotely to ensure the continued health and safety of
the public. The City Council most recently ratified the findings of Resolution No. 2021-36 on
September 6, 2022.
If the City Council determines the need to conduct meetings remotely still exists, the City
Council should ratify the findings in Resolution No. 2021-36.

home.
D. The City Council, Commissions and Committees have utilized remote and hybrid
meetings during the state of emergency, ensuring the member's and public's continued
access to meetings while ensuring public safety.
E. On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21, which
extended the ability of agencies to hold remote meetings through September 30, 2021,
after which agencies anticipated transitioning back to public meetings held in full
compliance with the Brown Act.
F. Since issuing Executive Order N-08-21, the Delta variant emerged, causing a spike
in COVID-19 cases throughout the state.
G. It is difficult to maintain social distancing requirements for the public, staff, Council
Members, Committee Members and Commissioners in their respective meeting locations,
therefore, the City of Vernon legislative bodies have utilized a hybrid model of meetings,
with some members and the public participating remotely.
H. The Proclamation of a State of Emergency issued by Governor Newsom on March
4, 2020 continues to be in effect.
Resolution No. 2021-36
Page2of3
I. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newson signed AB 361, allowing local
legislative bodies to continue to meet remotely after the September 30, 2021 expiration
of the Governor’s executive orders.
J. Pursuant to AB 361, it is necessary for the City Council to declare every 30 days
that the City’s legislative bodies must continue to meet remotely to ensure the health and
safety of the public.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF VERNON AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 2. The City Council of the City of Vernon hereby finds and determines
that the above recitals are true and correct.

Council and all other City Legislative Body meetings, as well as staff and
members of the public, from meeting safely in person; and

distancing and to wear masks when inside public spaces; however, the City
cannot maintain social distancing requirements for the Council Members,
Commissioners, Committee Members, staff and public in meeting spaces.

to be conducted in a hybrid manner including remote and in person participation for the

Submitting Department: City Clerk
Meeting Date: October 4, 2022
SUBJECT
Electronic Communications Retention Policy
Recommendation:
A. Adopt Administrative Manual Policy 5.3 - Information Technology - Electronic
Communications Retention Policy; and
B. Authorize the City Administrator to execute and distribute the Policy to all City
employees, Council Members, advisory board members, contractors, interns and
volunteers.
Background:
The City's Administrative Policy Manual (Manual) comprises policies and programs developed
by the City to clarify the responsibilities of both the City and its employees, and to provide a
uniform system for consistent implementation of practices and procedures.
The proposed Electronic Communications Retention Policy (Policy) provides direction to City
employees, Council Members, advisory board members, contractors, interns and volunteers
on the retention and deletion of communications within the City's various electronic
communication systems. The Policy (Section 5.3 of the Manual) distinguishes between City
records and non-records and will assist users in their efforts to properly retain public records
pursuant to the City's Records Retention Schedule. The City Clerk's Department, in
coordination with Information Technology staff and the City Attorney, will provide training on
proper implementation of this policy.
Staff requests Council approval of the attached Electronic Communications Retention Policy.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

Section 5.3 – Information Technology
Approval:____________________________
City Administrator
Effective Date: Responsible Department:
City Clerk Department
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this policy is to provide direction on use of the City’s electronic
communication systems and records retention in compliance with applicable State and
Federal laws, and City policies. Users will be trained in the application and implementation
of this policy.
POLICY:
It is the City’s policy that electronic communications are to be used as a medium of
communication to enhance productivity in conducting City business. Because electronic
communications may be public records subject to public disclosure and the Records
Retention Schedule, all City electronic communications are subject to the following use
and retention requirements.
Electronic Communications
Electronic communications include all electronic communications, regardless of format,
including electronic mail (email), voicemail, facsimile, mobile device messaging (texts),
and electronic messaging/chats, sent or received by City employees, Council Members,
advisory board members, contractors, interns, and volunteers.
The City’s electronic communication systems are not intended to be and shall not be used
for the storage or maintenance of writings, documents, or communications.
User Responsibility
Each individual user is responsible for determining whether a writing, document or
communication is a City Record or Non-Record and then taking appropriate steps to
preserve or delete the record.
Electronic communications determined to be City Records must be categorized in the
appropriate record series, converted to the appropriate electronic format, retained for the
required time as outlined in the City of Vernon Records Retention Schedule, and deleted
from the electronic communications system.
Each user is responsible for regularly deleting Non-Records from each user's
accounts within the City’s electronic communication systems. This includes items in
“received” and “sent” folders as well as any folders set up by individual users.
Page 2 of 3
Records versus Non-Records
City Records contain substantive information documenting the conduct of the public’s
business regardless of form or location.
Non-Records are routine email and electronic messages and attachments comparable
to telephonic communications. They are not retained in the ordinary course of City
business, and the informational content of such communications is neither necessary
nor intended to be preserved for future City use or reference.
Personal Devices
Personal electronic communication systems should not be used to conduct City business.
Electronic communications received on personal devices or accounts that constitute City
Records must be transferred to the City’s electronic communication systems and retained
as a City Record.
Retention of Electronic Communications
A. Electronic communications including attachments must be converted to the
appropriate electronic format or printed in hard copy for retention as soon as
possible. City Records shall be retained as follows:
(i) the email or electronic message and attachments must be categorized
in the appropriate Records Retention Schedule record series; and
(ii) the email or electronic message and attachments must be converted
to the appropriate electronic format or printed in hard copy as soon as
possible; and
(iii) retained for the required time period as outlined in the Records
Retention Schedule.
B. The City’s electronic communication systems will be configured to automatically
and permanently delete all items older than two (2) years on a rolling basis.
Users are responsible for converting and retaining all City Records in
accordance with Section (A) prior to the two-year deletion schedule.
C. Legal Holds. Due to litigation, public records requests, and other such requests,
certain electronic communications shall be excluded from retention period
expiration. Legal holds shall be applied by each individual end user upon request
or approval of the City Attorney or designated departmental representative,
following existing policies and guidelines for such requests. Individual end users
must maintain records per direction of the City Attorney or designated
departmental representative.

Submitted by: Adriana Ramos
Submitting Department: Public Utilities
Meeting Date: October 4, 2022
SUBJECT
Resource Adequacy Plan for 2023
Recommendation:
A. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-35 approving and adopting the Vernon Public Utilities
Department Resource Adequacy Plan for 2023, which includes the coincident peak
Demand Forecast, the Planning Reserve Margin, the Qualifying Capacity Criteria, and
the Qualifying Capacity from such resources, City’s Resource Adequacy and Supply
Data and approving the resources used to satisfy the California Independent System
Operator’s (CAISO) tariff requirements; and
B. Authorize staff to submit the Vernon Public Utilities Department Resource Adequacy
Plan for 2023 and the Monthly Resource Adequacy and Supply Data to the CAISO.
Background:
As the electric grid operator for the State, the California Independent System Operator
(CAISO) is responsible for maintaining a reliable electric grid. One of the keys to maintaining a
reliable grid is ensuring that the electric system has adequate resources to meet its electric
demand. To do this, the CAISO has established provisions in its Tariff that are intended to
ensure that Load Serving Entities (LSE), such as the City of Vernon (City), will secure
sufficient resources to meet its customers’ energy demands.
Pursuant to Section 40 of the CAISO Tariff, LSE must annually provide a Resource Adequacy
demonstration or plan to the CAISO. The Resource Adequacy demonstration must include: (1)
a coincident peak Demand Forecast; (2) Reserve Margin; (3) Qualifying Capacity Criteria; (4)
annual and monthly Resource Adequacy and Supply data; (5) a list of Resource Adequacy
Resources that will be counted on to satisfy its Local Capacity Requirement; and (6) Flexible
Resource Adequacy Capacity Requirement. The Resource Adequacy demonstration
categories are each defined and described in detail below.
(1) Coincident peak Demand Forecast is defined as the amount of the City’s load that
contributes to the CAISO system peak. This is calculated by first establishing a monthly peak
Demand Forecast for the upcoming year and applying a projected load growth rate if
appropriate. Based on staff analysis, no load growth adjustment is appropriate for 2023. To
establish the Coincident Peak Demand Forecast for 2023, staff has used its monthly peak
Demand Forecast (as listed in Table 1 of the Resource Adequacy Plan for 2023) and
multiplied it by the coincident peak factor provided by the California Energy Commission. The
results of this calculation are the Coincident Peak Demand Forecast and are listed in Table 2
of the Resource Adequacy Plan for 2023.
(2) Planning Reserve Margin is defined as the amount of Resource Adequacy Capacity that an
LSE must maintain above its coincident peak Demand Forecast. The Electric Utility governing
board, Vernon City Council, has established its Planning Reserve Margin at 15%.
(3) Qualifying Capacity Criteria is defined as a description of the criteria that will be used to
determine the type of resources that can be used to meet a LSE’s capacity obligation and the
amount of capacity (Qualifying Capacity) from such resources. The City has elected to use the
following resources to meet its capacity needs and the qualifying capacity from each of them:
a. Power supply contract(s) entered through Western Systems Power Pool (WSPP)
Agreement, Market Redesign and Technology Upgrade (MRTU) Amendment, and any
product defined as a Scheduling Coordinator (SC)-to-SC traded product for which an
Inter-SC Trade (IST) can be submitted to the CAISO.
b. Vernon Purchase Power Contract with the Southern California Public Power Authority
(SCPPA) for the SCPPA’s share of the Palo Verde Generating Station. The qualified
capacity shall be 4.9% of SCPPA’s share of the Palo Verde Generating Station.
c. The contract between the United States Department of Energy Western Area Power
Administration Boulder Canyon Project and the City of Vernon. The Qualifying Capacity
will be based on the most current schedule for the available capacity from the Boulder
Canyon Project.
d. The generating and system units within the City’s electric system. The amount of
Qualifying Capacity of such units shall not exceed the Net Qualifying Capacity (NQC) as
determined and listed annually by the CAISO.
e. Long-term power purchase contracts of five years or longer. The Qualifying Capacity will
be based on the City of Vernon’s percentage share of the Net Qualified Capacity (NQC)
for each contract, as determined and listed annually by CAISO.
f. Capacity from a Participating Generator, System Unit, or System Resource as defined in
the CAISO Tariff.
g. Interruptible Service agreements between the City of Vernon and its electrical
customers. The Qualifying Capacity will be based on the contracted amount the electrical
customer has agreed to interrupt.
(4) Local Capacity Requirement is defined as the monthly allocation of the local capacity (Los
Angeles Basin) the City must make available to the CAISO and demonstrated in the CAISO
approved Resource Adequacy data templates. Resources located in the Los Angeles Basin
area shall count toward the City’s local capacity requirement.
(5) Flexible Resource Adequacy Capacity Requirement is defined as the monthly allocation of
the Flexible Resource Adequacy Capacity Requirement the City must make available to the
CAISO and demonstrated in the CAISO approved Resource Adequacy data templates.
Flexible resources are resources that can ramp up and down quickly and have the potential to
start and shut down multiple times per day (i.e., flexible capacity). The Malburg Generating
Station units and the H. Gonzales units shall count towards the City’s flexible capacity
requirement.
(6) Annual and monthly Resource Adequacy and Supply data - must be submitted to the
CAISO on the established templates and the set schedule dates. The Resource Adequacy
data templates shall identify all qualified resources committed to meeting the City’s Resource
Adequacy obligations and the adopted Reserve Margin. Annual Resource Adequacy Plans
data must demonstrate that: 90% of the Coincident Peak Demand Forecast plus planning
Reserve Margin and Flexible Resource Adequacy Capacity Requirement has been secured;
and 100% of the total local Resource Adequacy requirement has been secured. Monthly
Resource Adequacy and Supply data templates must demonstrate that 100% of the
Coincident Peak Demand Forecast plus planning Reserve Margin, Flexible Resource
Adequacy Capacity Requirement and local Resource Adequacy requirement has been met.
Monthly Resource Adequacy and Supply data may be adjusted for seasonal variations in the
City’s load or changes in its contracted/owned resources.
Consistent with the CAISO Tariff requirements, staff has prepared the City of Vernon Public
Utilities Department Resource Adequacy Plan for 2023 and now seeks approval of the Plan,
and authorization from the City Council to submit the Plan and the Monthly Resource
Adequacy and Supply Data to the CAISO.

Staff has prepared the attached “City of Vernon Public Utilities Department’s Resource
Adequacy Plan for Calendar Year 2023,” which is consistent with the CAISO Tariff
requirements. The following is a discussion of each of the CAISO Tariff requirements and how
the City will meet each requirement.
Coincident Peak Demand Forecast:
Vernon’s municipal load resides within the CAISO control area. The CAISO, as the balancing
authority, has the responsibility for meeting reliability criteria established by the Western
Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC). As such CAISO has entered into agreements with
various market participants, Generators, Scheduling Coordinators, Participating Transmission
Owners, Utility Distribution Companies, and Metered Subsystems (MSS), which impose
certain responsibilities on parties to establish a reliable system. One of those responsibilities
is to have operating reserves that meet the WECC minimum requirements.
The CAISO’s goal in considering reserve requirements is to balance available capacity with
demand across the entire CAISO control area, and therefore, CAISO’s primary concern is with
the time and amount of peak demand on the CAISO controlled transmission system (the
“system peak”). In order to reduce demand during the period of the system peak (and therefore,
Resolution No. 2022-35

to lower the peak demand on the transmission system), utilities generally offer retail rate
structures designed to encourage load shifting away from the on-peak period. Such efforts are
intended to achieve on-peak demand reduction and lower the need to build new generation to
meet peak demand. Vernon has adopted a rate structure that has successfully shifted the peak
demand period for Vernon’s system to a time that is generally earlier than the time of the
CAISO system peak.
Vernon’s share of the capacity needed to meet CAISO’s control area capacity requirements
may be established by determining the amount of Vernon’s load that contributes to the CAISO
system peak. Vernon’s load that contributes to the CAISO system peak is the City of Vernon
coincident peak Demand. The process to establish Vernon’s monthly coincident peak Demand
Forecast consists of the following three steps:
1. Establish Monthly Vernon System Peak Demand Forecast for 2023
To establish the City of Vernon’s system peak demand forecast, Staff performs an analysis
on annual changes in the City’s energy demand peaks during a five-year period. Based on
the results of the analysis, Staff forecasts a load growth rate for the upcoming calendar year
(Exhibit 1). This year’s analysis the City of Vernon’s system peak demand increased and
decreased year over year between 2018 and 2022. Closer review of Exhibit 1 reveals that
the growth rate from 2021 to 2022 decreased by 3.58%. Based on the current load trend
and recent years of inconsistencies, Staff concluded no load growth adjustment is an
appropriate forecast for calendar year 2023. Exhibit 2 shows the determination of the
projected system peak demand for 2023 based on no load growth adjustment. The
projected system peak demand for the City of Vernon is shown below in Table 1.

2. Establish Coincidental Peak Factor
The coincidental peak factor is the percentage of the City of Vernon’s energy demand at
the time of the CAISO system peak demand. As set forth in Section 40 of the CAISO
Tariff, the coincidental peak factor for each month has been calculated and provided to the
City annually by the California Energy Commission (CEC). The monthly coincidental
peak factor is shown in column C of Exhibit 3.
3. Calculate Monthly Coincident Peak Demand Forecast
The City of Vernon’s Coincident Peak Demand forecast is calculated as the mathematical
product of the City of Vernon’s forecasted System peak demand and the coincidental peak
factor. This reflects the City of Vernon’s projected demand at the time of the CAISO
system peak demand for each month. The monthly Coincident Peak Demand Forecast is
calculated and listed in column D of Exhibit 3 for the period of January through December
2023. It is also shown below in Table 2.

Planning Reserve Margin
The Planning Reserve Margin is the amount of Resource Adequacy Capacity that an LSE must
maintain above its coincident peak Demand Forecast. Historically, the City of Vernon has
established its Planning Reserve Margin at 15%. Staff recommends that the City Council
maintain the Planning Reserve Margin at 15%. The 15% Planning Reserve Margin is used to
establish the monthly Resource Adequacy obligation for the City of Vernon as listed in column
E of Exhibit 3.
Qualifying Capacity:
A Load Serving Entity must provide the CAISO with a description of the criteria that will be
used to determine the type of resources that can be used to meet its capacity obligation and the
amount of capacity (Qualifying Capacity) from such resources. Historically, Vernon has used
the following criterion to determine whether a resource qualifies: It qualifies if Vernon has a
contractual right to the power or has an interruptible service agreement with a customer. The
seven following resources are among those that meet this criterion and provide Qualifying
Resolution No. 2022-35
Page 8 of 21

Capacity. The calculation for the amount of Qualifying Capacity for the seven eligible
resource types are as follows:
1. CAISO IST-enabled Product. Power supply contract/s entered through WSPP
Agreement (MRTU Amendment) and defined as any SC-to-SC traded product for
which an IST (Inter-SC Trades) can be submitted and for which CAISO will make
payment or issue an invoice, including Energy, Tier I IFM Bid Cost Recovery
Obligations and Ancillary Service Obligation trades, as each defined in the Tariff.
2. Palo Verde. Vernon Purchase Power Contract with SCPPA for 4.9% of SCPPA’s share
of Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station (Palo Verde) shall be eligible as Qualifying
Capacity. The power is scheduled as an import generally at Westwing Substation
through the CAISO’s entitlement of transmission from Westwing to SP-15.
3. Boulder Canyon. Contract NO 16-DSR-12650 between United States Department of
Energy Western Area Power Administration Boulder Canyon Project and City of
Vernon, California for Electric Service shall be eligible to count as Qualifying
Capacity. The power is scheduled as an import at Mead Substation generally through
the CAISO’s entitlement of transmission from Mead Substation to SP-15. The amount
of Qualifying Capacity will be based on the most current schedule for the available
capacity from the Boulder Canyon Project at the time of submittal of the Resource
Adequacy Plan.
4. Vernon Units. Generating units and system units (excluding Vernon diesel generating
units) within Vernon’s MSS, including the Malburg Generating Station and the City
owned H. Gonzalez units, as reflected in Schedule 14 of Vernon’s MSS Agreement
with CAISO shall be eligible to count as Qualifying Capacity. The amount of
Qualifying Capacity of such units shall not exceed the Net Qualifying Capacity (NQC)
as determined and listed annually by the CAISO.
5. Long Term Power Purchase Contracts. Long term power supply contracts (5 years or
greater) entered through a power purchase agreement shall be eligible to count as
Qualifying Capacity. The amount of Qualifying Capacity will be based on the City of
Vernon’s percentage share of the Net Qualifying Capacity of each contract. For the
upcoming year, the following contracts will count as Qualifying Capacity, Antelope
Resolution No. 2022-35

DSR 1 Solar Project, Astoria 2 Solar Project and Puente Hills Landfill Gas-To-Energy
Facility.
6. Other Units. All other capacity from a Participating Generator, a System Unit, or a
System Resource, as defined in the CAISO Tariff, shall be eligible as Qualifying
Capacity. System Resources, however, must be located in the CAISO control area or
have a firm transmission path from source to the CAISO control area. Such criteria for
firm transmission facilities over the CAISO control area can be satisfied with the
possession of a firm transmission right from the CAISO on the path associated with the
System Resource. Firm transmission rights provide physical priority right to schedule
over congested paths.
7. Interruptible Service Agreements. Interruptible Service Agreements with the City’s
Electrical customers. Currently Vernon has an Interruptible Service Agreement where
the customer agrees to interrupt up to 27 MW of load within a 30-minute notification.
A period of interruption can occur upon notification from the Independent System
Operator (ISO) requiring the City to shed load or upon the unscheduled outage of the
Malburg Generating Station (MGS) or any other generating unit internal to the City’s
system.
Local Capacity Area Resources:
In accordance with Section 40.3 of the CAISO Tariff, CAISO annually publishes a Local
Capacity Technical Study that determines the amount of local capacity needed in the Los
Angeles Basin area that must be available to the CAISO. Based on the Local Capacity
Technical Study, the CAISO allocates responsibility for Local Capacity Area Resources to the
Scheduling Coordinators of the LSEs. The CAISO validates that the Scheduling Coordinator
list enough local resources in its Resource Adequacy data templates to satisfy its obligation.
Staff has prepared the Resource Adequacy data templates (Exhibit 4) which lists the Resource
Adequacy Resources including the Malburg Generating Station, Puente Hills Landfill Gas-To-
Energy Facility and the City owned H. Gonzalez units that will be counted on to satisfy the
Local Area Capacity requirement for the City of Vernon. Additionally, any Interruptible
Service Agreements with the City’s electric customers shall count towards the City’s Local
Capacity’s requirement.

Flexible Resource Adequacy Capacity:
In accordance with Section 40.10 of the CAISO Tariff, CAISO annually conducts a study to
determine the Flexible Capacity Need for the CAISO Balancing Authority Area for each month
of the next calendar year and provides the results of the study to each Local Regulatory
Authority in the CAISO Balancing Authority Area. Flexible resources are resources with the
potential to ramp up and down quickly and have the capability to start and shut down multiple
times per day. The need for flexible capacity is a result of the CAISO managing a “greener”
grid. The increase of variable energy resources and distributed generation has presented
significant challenges to grid reliability. These types of resources are projected to continue to
increase in the future which will create an increase in supply and load variability and
unpredictability within the CAISO system. In order for the CAISO to efficiently operate the
grid, it needs measures to ensure that flexible resources are economically bid into the CAISO
markets and as a result optimally dispatch them.
The CAISO study calculates the total system amount of Flexible Capacity needed for each of
the three Flexible Capacity categories: (1) Base ramping flexibility; (2) Peak ramping
flexibility; and (3) Super-peak ramping flexibility. Section 40.10.3 of the CAISO Tariff sets
the criteria needed by resources to qualify for each category. For the Calendar Year 2023, the
CAISO has determined the system-wide Flexible Capacity needs and has notified each LSE
their monthly requirement. Exhibit 6 lists the City’s Flexible Capacity requirement by month
and category. Furthermore, the CAISO has established the Effective Flexible Capacity for
each resource and the category of Flexible Capacity each resource will qualify for the
upcoming compliance year. For Calendar Year 2023, the CAISO has established 99 MW of
category 1 base ramping flexible resources adequacy capacity for Malburg Generating Station,
and 5.75 MW category 1 base ramping flexible resource adequacy capacity for H. Gonzales
Units (Exhibit 7). CAISO Tariff Section 40.10.5.1 requires the Scheduling Coordinators of
LSEs to identify the resources it will rely on to satisfy its Flexible Resource Adequacy Capacity
on both the annual and monthly Resource Adequacy data templates.
Staff has prepared the Resource Adequacy data templates (Exhibit 4) which lists the Resource
Adequacy Resources including the Malburg Generating Station and the City owned H.

Gonzalez units that will be counted on to satisfy the Flexible Resource Adequacy Capacity
requirement for the City of Vernon.
Annual and Monthly Resource Adequacy and Supply data:
The CAISO Tariff requires that the scheduling coordinator of a load serving entity provide an
annual and a monthly Resource Adequacy Plan (Section 40.2.2.4) using the required templates
and submitted on the set schedules. Furthermore, the scheduling coordinator of a resource
providing resource adequacy must submit both an annual and monthly Supply Plan (Section
40.4.7.1) using the required templates and submitted on the set schedules. Staff asks that City
Council adopt the following two requirements for both the annual and monthly submittals:
1. Annual: submittals must demonstrate that 90% of the forecasted coincident peak
demand plus planning reserves margin and flexible resource adequacy requirement has
been secured; and 100% of the total local resource adequacy requirement has been
secured.
2. Monthly: submittals must demonstrate 100% of the forecasted coincident peak Demand
plus planning reserves margin, flexible resource adequacy requirement and local
resource adequacy requirement has been met. Data on the monthly plans may be
adjusted for seasonal variations in the City’s load or changes in its contracted/owned
resources.
Therefore, as required by the CAISO, the City of Vernon, as a load serving entity and a
scheduling coordinator for resource adequacy resources, must submit a Resource Adequacy
and Supply Plan on the set schedules. Staff has prepared the Annual Resource Adequacy
(Exhibit 4) and Supply data (Exhibit 5) for calendar year 2023. Staff will submit the monthly
Resource Adequacy and Supply data to the CAISO as they become due. The data to be
submitted on the monthly plans will demonstrate that 100% of all requirements have been met
and may be adjusted from the annual Resource Adequacy and Supply Plan for seasonal
variations as well as load and resource changes. The monthly plan is due to the CAISO 45
days prior to the beginning of the month.

Meeting Date: October 4, 2022
SUBJECT
Purchase Contract with Cedro Construction Inc. for Contract No. CS-1506: District Final
Repaving
Recommendation:
A. Find that the proposed action is categorically exempt from California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) review, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301,
because the project consists of the repair of existing facilities and equipment and
involves negligible or no expansion of an existing use;
B. Approve and authorize the issuance of a Purchase Contract with Cedro Construction Inc.
for Repaving of District Boulevard for a total amount of $22,001.92; and
C. Authorize a contingency of $5,000 in the event that additional unforeseen repairs are
necessary, and grant authority to the City Administrator to issue change orders for an
amount up to the contingency amount, if necessary.
Background:
On August 19, 2022, a water main on District Blvd. between Everette Ave. and Loma Vista
Ave. ruptured, damaging the street. The Vernon Public Utilities Department, assisted by the
Public Works Department, removed the damaged pavement and compacted the subgrade. To
complete repairs to the street, the Engineering Division solicited quotes and schedules from
responsible contractors for the final paving.
Pursuant to the City’s Purchasing Guidelines, Staff performed an informal selection process to
obtain quotes for the repair project. The informal selection process for contracts valued
between $15,000 and $50,000 requires no fewer than five vendor bids. Although staff
solicited a total of seven paving contractors for quotes, only three quotes were received. The
following quotes for the project were received by the deadline indicated of Tuesday,
September 13, 2022, at 2:00pm:
Cedro Construction Inc. - $22,001.92
Onyx Paving - $23,044.00
Bridgewater Equipment - $79,428.00
Staff has evaluated the quotes received and determined that Cedro Construction Inc. provided
the lowest, complete, responsive quote. Because of the minor nature of the work, performance
bonds and labor and materials bonds were not required as a part of this quote submittal;
however, all necessary insurances will be required.
According to Vernon Municipal Code Sec. 3.32.030 (B), if in the 12 months preceding the
effective date of a proposed new, renewed, or otherwise amended contract, the City has paid
or awarded the proposed vendor more than $100,000 pursuant to contracts with the vendor,
then the proposed new, renewed, or otherwise amended contract shall be approved only by
the City Council. Within the past year, Cedro Construction Inc. has had two contracts with the
Public Utilities Department totaling $3,568,748.00, exceeding the $100,000 threshold.
Staff hereby recommends awarding a Purchase Contract to Cedro Construction Inc. in the
amount of $22,001.92; and recommends granting the City Administrator authority to issue
change orders for a total amount of up to $5,000 in the event of unexpected changed
conditions or to accommodate additional required work, for a potential total cost not to exceed
$27,001.92. The final repair work is pending approval of the proposed purchase order.
Fiscal Impact:
Sufficient funds for the purchase contract are available in Vernon Public Utilities Water Fund
Repairs & Maintenance Account No. 020.1084.590000.

Meeting Date: October 4, 2022
SUBJECT
Purchase Contract with Wonderware North for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition
Software
Recommendation:
Approve the issuance of a Purchase Contract with Wonderware North, a Q-mation Company,
in an amount not to exceed $176,291.96, for the purchase of Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition software licenses.
Background:
On June 17, 2020, City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Northwest
Electrical Services, LLC (Northwest) to Perform Technical Design, Controls, Automation, and
Analytical Services (Agreement). The scope of work of the Agreement includes the design and
construction of electrical upgrades for Vernon Public Utilities’ (VPU) water supply and
distribution system, as well as the design and development of a new Supervisory Control and
Data Acquisition (SCADA) system for the Water Division. The new SCADA system will replace
the outdated SCADA system with a standardized, widely supported, highly integrated system
that supports safe, secure access and provides vital data in near-real-time.
Northwest is currently nearing the completion of the new SCADA system. To commission and
operate the new SCADA, five licenses must be purchased as follows:
AVEVA System Platform 2020, 25K IO/12K History - Application Server 25K IO,
Historian Standard 12K Tag, 2 Communication Drivers Standard, 1 Historian Client Web
– main application engine running on servers that hold and handle all the data (alarms,
communications, etc.) and includes a historian
AVEVA Historian 2020, Standard 12,000 Tag, Redundant – license to operate a
redundant historian
AVEVA Supervisory Client without Historian Client Desktop 2020, no MSCAL – required
to operate various Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI) around the water network and
control rooms (quote includes 15)
AVEVA Reports for Operations 2020, 1000 Tags – report server that integrates data and
enables publishing of various technical reports
AVEVA Supervisory Client Read Only with Historian Client Desktop 2020, no MSCAL –
allows read-only access for users to access the system using any device (e.g., cell,
tablet, desktop) via a simple browser (quote includes 10)
These five licenses will enable the Water Division and Control Center staff to obtain the full
benefit of the new SCADA system’s capabilities. VPU staff will have access to invaluable data
and technical reports that are not available with the existing SCADA.
The proposed purchase is exempt from competitive bidding and competitive selection
pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code (VMC) Sections 3.32.110(A)(2) and 3.32.110(B)(1),
respectively. The licenses are available from only one vendor, as the SCADA system was
developed to run on the proposed software, AVEVA, and Wonderware North (Wonderware) is
its exclusive sales organization. Additionally, the H. Gonzales units already operate on this
software. The purchase of the AVEVA licenses for the water system is part of VPU’s overall
goal to standardize and upgrade the water and electric SCADA systems.
Staff recommends approval of a Purchase Contract with Wonderware in an amount not to
exceed $176,291.96. Wonderware's quote does not include tax, therefore, staff calculated the
tax and included it in the aforementioned total. The five proposed licenses include one year of
customer support. Pursuant to VMC Section 3.32.030(A), City Council approval is required as
the total value of the Purchase Order requested exceeds $100,000. This purchase was
previously included in the 3-year Capital Improvement Plan approved by City Council in
association with the Water System Revenue Bonds, 2020 Series A. This project will be
funded with bond proceeds.
Fiscal Impact:
Sufficient funds for purchasing the licenses are available in VPU Water Fund Capital Outlay
Account 020.1084.900000.

SUBJECT
Purchase Contract with DC Consulting Services LLC
Recommendation:
A. Find that the proposed action is categorically exempt from California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) review, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301,
because the project consists of the maintenance, repair or minor alteration of existing
equipment and involves negligible or no expansion of an existing use;
B. Approve the issuance of a Purchase Contract with DC Consulting Services LLC, in an
amount not to exceed $444,989.50, for the purchase and commissioning of two Rolls-
Royce model 571KF gas turbine engines; and
C. Authorize a contingency amount of $55,000 for estimated taxes and freight costs and
grant authority to the City Administrator to issue supplementals up to the contingency
amount, if necessary.
Background:
Vernon Public Utilities (VPU) electric system is capable of benefiting from three generation
facilities, namely the Malburg Generating Station (MGS) and H. Gonzales Units 1 and 2. The
Gonzales Units are responsible for providing peaking energy into the California Independent
System Operator (CAISO) electric grid. The Gonzales Units also provide local resource
adequacy (capacity) to VPU, which would otherwise need to be purchased in the market at a
costly rate and has limited availability. Gonzales Units 1 and 2 were originally placed into
service in the 1980s and are currently known to be some of the last remaining 571 engines still
in operation globally.
In 2020, Gonzales Unit 1 (Unit 1) suffered a compressor failure and had to be taken offline. As
a result, VPU has been relegated to purchasing capacity from the market and must continue
to do so until Unit 1 can be placed back into service. The estimated annual value of capacity
for Unit 1 would be approximately $483,000. In March of 2020, Unit 1 was shipped to Houston,
Texas for inspection by Rolls Wood Group (RWG), an authorized vendor that conducts
maintenance work on 570/571 engines. On August 11, 2020, RWG determined that Unit 1
was in a state of disrepair and recommended that the Unit be used for spare parts for Unit 2.
RWG also recommended that VPU modify Unit 1 to run on a 570 engine, with a retrofit, at an
estimated cost of $660,000. VPU did not pursue the option to retrofit Unit 1 to a 570 engine, as
it was uncharted territory and not guaranteed to work. On February 29, 2021, RWG provided a
letter stating that as of June 30, 2021, the firm would no longer provide repair and
maintenance support services for 570/571 engines; however, RWG did provide the names of
two companies, DC Consulting and GSF Services, that would continue to provide global ad-
hoc and scheduled support services for the engines.
Recently, DC Consulting, in collaboration with GSF Services, notified VPU that five 571KF
engines, previously removed from a yacht, had become available for purchase. These five
engines are known to be some of the last available 571KF engines globally. Of the identified
five 571KF engines, all are said to be in very good to excellent condition, confirmed by DC
Consulting in their preliminary check. With the help of DC Consulting, VPU has identified the
two engines that are in the best condition to purchase. One engine will be used to replace the
failed engine in Gonzales Unit 1, while the second engine will be used to replace the current
engine in Unit 2. Given that all of the five engines available have approximately 1,000
operating hours, the engines meet premium condition status. The current engine on Unit 2 will
be repurposed to serve as a backup engine in the event VPU experiences damage to any of
the Gonzales Units or can be utilized for replacement parts.
VPU is seeking Council approval of a Purchase Contract with DC Consulting (in partnership
with GSF Services) for the purchase and commissioning of two 571KF engines and for
services to modify and install the two engines at the Vernon Power Plant. Combined, the
vendors have over 40 years of experience with 570/571KF model Rolls-Royce gas turbine
installations, commissioning, troubleshooting, and repair, including similar work with other gas
turbines from Siemens and General Electric. DC Consulting and GSF Services have worked
with this engine model since 2003, performing marine and power plant installations worldwide.
DC Consulting is a sole source repair and maintenance provider for 570/571KF engines in the
United States, and is a highly competent and experienced company that VPU has used in the
past for turbine repairs and maintenance.
To ensure compliance with South Coast Air Quality Management District’s (SCAQMD)
Regional Clean Air Incentives Market (RECLAIM) Program, staff has engaged and confirmed
with SCAQMD that future permitting requirements will be met for both the Gonzales Units.
VPU also conducted a comprehensive analysis of the proposed purchase and concluded that
this investment will yield significant resource adequacy cost savings and energy revenue for
VPU that will generate enough funds to pay for the cost of the purchase in the first year of
operation. This investment will enable the Gonzalez Units to run an expected 10 years,
providing cost savings, utility revenue, electric grid reliability, and a means to provide vital
black-start capability during grid emergencies. It is timely and valuable for VPU to have the
Gonzales Units operating, especially given that the state has prioritized renewable generation
versus permitting any new natural gas generation facilities.
DC Consulting required a wire deposit of $99,000 to conduct necessary due diligence and pre-
purchase activities including a physical inspection of the engines overseas, thoroughly
reviewing and analyzing historical test reports and maintenance records, brokering terms of
the transaction, procuring the last remaining tooling to work on the engines and investigating
options for shipping to Vernon. Accordingly, on September 6, 2022, the City Administrator
approved the required wire deposit. Staff is now requesting Council approval of the proposed
purchase contract in the amount of $499,989.50 pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code (VMC)
Section 3.32.030(A), as the total value of the Purchase Contract requested exceeds
$100,000. Additionally, staff is requesting approval of a contingency amount of $55,000 to
cover anticipated taxes and freight charges due to the Port of Los Angeles delays. Given the
magnitude, scope and complexity of the proposed purchase, a contingency of ten percent
(10%) of the total contract amount is appropriate.
If the proposed purchase contract is approved by Council, the total for the purchase and
commissioning of two 571KF engines would be $598,989.50. Pursuant to Section 3.32.110
(A)(2) and 3.32.110 (B)(1) of the VMC, the proposed purchase is exempt from competitive
bidding and competitive selection, as DC Consulting is the only vendor that can provide the
access and support to purchase and repair the identified 571KF engines.
Fiscal Impact:
Sufficient funds for the purchase and commissioning of two Rolls-Royce model 571KF gas
turbine engines are available in VPU Electric Fund, Generation Station A, Capital Outlay
Account No. 055.8200.900000.

City of Vernon
4305 Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, CA 90058
Attn. Mr. Todd Dusenberry,
This proposal is for the sale of two Rolls-Royce model 571KF gas turbines by DC Consulting
Services LLC. (DCC) to the City of Vernon, California (COV), to the address shown above.
These engines will be modified and installed at the Vernon Power Plant to replace two
existing gas turbines, including one that previously failed.
Background
The two units installed in the City are model 571 Rolls-Royce split shaft turbines. Model 571
was discontinued as an offering many years ago, although Rolls Wood Group (RWG)
provided support for the units that remained in service across the globe until recently. Over
the last decade, most of the 571-support staff and services have either retired or diminished
due to the lack of users of this turbine model. Parts are no longer offered from RWG and
they have deferred continuing service and support of model 571 to DCC and GSF Services
Inc. (GSF).
Unit #1 Compressor Failure
When H. Gonzales Unit 1 (HG Unit 1) suffered a compressor failure, the unit was sent to
RWG for evaluation and repair estimates. RWG evaluated the damage and determined a
possible repair program. However, the cost to repair was estimated $800,000, and the
ultimate success of repairs was not guaranteed, given the lack of spare parts, the
diminishing staff with 571 expertise or the unknown capability to have new parts
manufactured. Likewise, there would be no guarantees on the work performed since RWG no
longer maintains a facility to test the repairs.
RWG suggested that the City work with DCC to investigate possible engines that various
users may wish to sell as a better alternative to attempting a repair of the failed unit.
At the same time, RWG stated that they would no longer be handling service and/or repairs
on the 571 turbines.
Spare Turbines
DCC has continually gathered spare parts over the years for 571 units that were scrapped or
failed, and replacement parts were scavenged and warehoused. Unfortunately, none of these
scavenged parts would bring HG Unit 1 back into service, and in the case of a compressor
failure, it would be difficult and ill-advised to attempt any field repair without a full dynamic
balancing of the unit.

DCC was aware of five 571 turbines removed from a yacht owned by the King of Spain. At
the time, the units were known to be in good condition and had very running low hours.
However, at that time, the owner was not interested in selling the turbines.
Recently, however, now that the 571 turbines are in storage in Spain, there were indications
that the owner would like to sell the units and the associated parts. As the City is the only
remaining user of this model turbine, DCC thought that the turbines could be obtained at a
reasonable cost.
Due Diligence
While both DCC and GSF Services have serviced these turbines, their current condition and
the condition of any spare parts were only assumed but unknown without physical inspection
review of documentation. Prior service visits produced evaluations proving the engines to be
in very good condition and confirmed the units to have extremely low running hours.
Pictures of the units were received, along with the latest running information. Although the
running hours were low, and one engine has had no running hours since being serviced on a
test cell, the best path forward to instill confidence toward a purchase was to dispatch GSF
to physically inspect the units and the spare parts. The physical inspection and review of the
spare parts, along with the running logs and test reports, validate the high quality of the
engines. Any of the five engines have lower running hours in total than both H. Gonzales
Units 1 and 2.

Risk Mitigation
Given our vast experience working with these five engines, the physical inspection, and the
review of the test reports and running logs, it is highly likely that any two of the five engines
presented would be quality engines replacing the two H. Gonzales Unit engines.
However, given the owner’s interest in removing all five engines from their inventory, DCC
has negotiated an arrangement to ship all five turbines to the City on the City's behalf. Of
those five turbines, the best two engines, compressors, and hot sections will be utilized to
install into the two turbines at the Vernon Power Plant, which this sales proposal offers. The
remaining three engines will be stored in the United States by DCC and will be a ready stock
of spare parts if needed. In this manner, in addition to the physical inspection, a further risk
is mitigated by having all five engines at the Vernon Power Plant during assembly and
installation. In the event that one of the installed engines does not work as planned or have
issues during commissioning, Vernon will have the ability to replace that engine with one of
the 3 remaining engines.
A secondary risk is the availability of the special original equipment manufacturer (OEM)
tooling to perform engine repair and servicing. DCC has obtained all of the tooling that was
still available from RWG; securing these specialized tools only available from RWG before
they scrapped the tooling.
Sales Proposal
DCC and GSF will provide services to modify and install the turbines at the Vernon Power
Plant. Combined, we have over 40 years of experience with the 570/571 model Rolls-Royce
gas turbine installations, commissioning, troubleshooting, and repair, including similar work
with other gas turbines from Siemens and General Electric. DCC and GSF have worked with
this engine model since 2003, performing marine and power plant installations worldwide.
