Procedures for Calculating the
Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor
The Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor (FCABF) will be applied based on kWh
billed under all schedules to reflect changes in the cost of natural gas (Fuel) consisting of
gas purchased from the Vernon Natural Gas Financing Authority; gas used for
generation, including gas used at the Malburg Generation Station and the embedded cost
(fuel cost) in purchased energy.
The FCABF, expressed to the nearest $0.0001per kilowatt-hour (kWh), is to be
calculated pursuant to the following equation:
FCABF = FC + C
Se
Where,
FCABF = Fuel cost Adjustment Billing Factor per Kilowatt Hour sold
FC = Fuel cost and embedded fuel cost in purchased energy for the previous period
C = Adjustment for Interruptible Service Under Recovery
Se = Kilowatt Hours sold in the previous period
FCABF Computation Sheet
Schedule FCA-1 is attached to provide the computation sheet for all period once
implementation is completed.
Fuel Cost (FC)
Items 1 through 4 represent the fuel cost and embedded fuel cost in purchased power
which are to be used in computing the period's FCABF. This is the costs the City
incurred in the second -previous month.
Line 1 represents the incremental cost associated with the prepay gas program above the
$7.50 per MMBtu base, including amounts payable to the Vernon Natural Gas Financing
Authority and debt service on City obligations allocable to the payment of costs of the
prepay gas program.
Line 2 represents incremental gas cost for MGS generation, adjusted for the commodity
swap, above the $7.50 per MMBtu base.
Line 3 represents incremental gas coat for self -generation above the $7.50 per MMBtu
base. .
Line 4 represents the embedded fuel cost in purchased power on the wholesale power
market to serve load . It is computed by converting the MWhs purchased into equivalent
MMBtu. It represents the cost of equivalent gas cost above the $7.50 per MMBtu base.
Adiustment for Interruptible Service Under -Recovery ( C
Represents the revenue short -fall from limiting the cost impact to Interruptible Service to
2.5 % increase over the prevailing average billing rate.

3. Maximum Demand: The maximum demand in any month shall be the
measured maximum average kilowatt input, indicated or recorded by
instruments to be supplied by the Utility, during any 15-minute interval in the
month.
4. Voltage Discount: The charges including adjustment will be reduced by 3%
for service delivered and metered at voltages of from 2 kV through 10 kV; by
4% for service delivered and metered at voltages of from 11 kV through 50
kV; except that when only one transformation from a transmission voltage
level is involved, a customer normally entitled to a 3% discount will be
entitled to a 4% discount.
5. Power Factor Adjustment: When the billing demand has exceeded 200 kW
for three consecutive months, a kilovar-hour meter will be installed as soon as
practical, and, thereafter, until the billing demand has been less than 150 kW
for twelve consecutive months, the charges will be adjusted each month for
power factor, as follows:
The charges will be increased by 20.6 cents per kilovar of maximum
reactive demand imposed on the Utility in excess of 33 percent of the
maximum number of kilowatts. The kilovars of reactive demand shall
be calculated by multiplying the kilowatts of measured maximum
demand by the ratio of the kilovar-hours to the kilowatt-hours.
Demands in kilowatts and kilovars shall be determined to the nearest
unit. A ratchet device will be installed on the kilovar-hour meter to
prevent its reverse operation on leading power factors.
6. X-Ray Installations: Where the Utility installs the standard transformer
capacity requested by a customer to serve separately an X-Ray installation, the
minimum charge will be increased by $1.03 per kVA of transformer capacity
requested.
7. Temporary Discontinuance of Service: Where the use of energy is seasonal or
intermittent, no adjustments will be made for a temporary discontinuance of
service. Any customer prior to resuming service within twelve months after
such service was discontinued will be required to pay all charges which would
have been billed if service had not been discontinued.
8. Excess Transformer Ca acity: The transformer capacity in excess of a
customer's contract demand either required by the Utility because of the
nature of the customer's load or requested by the customer. Excess
transformer capacity shall be billed at $1.03 per kVA per month.

Procedures for Calculating the
Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor
The Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor (FCABF) will be applied based on kWh
billed under all schedules to reflect changes in the cost of natural gas (Fuel) consisting of
gas purchased from the Vernon Natural Gas Financing Authority; gas used for
generation, including gas used at the Malburg Generation Station and the embedded cost
(fuel cost) in purchased energy.
The FCABF, expressed to the nearest $0.0001per kilowatt-hour (kWh), is to be
calculated pursuant to the following equation:
FCABF = FC + C
Se
Where,
FCABF = Fuel cost Adjustment Billing Factor per Kilowatt Hour sold
FC = Fuel cost and embedded fuel cost in purchased energy for the previous period
C = Adjustment for Interruptible Service Under Recovery
Se = Kilowatt Hours sold in the previous period
e
FCABF Computation Sheet
Schedule FCA-1 is attached to provide the computation sheet for all period once
implementation is completed.
Fuel Cost (FCC
Items I through 4 represent the fuel cost and embedded fuel cost in purchased power
which are to be used in computing the period's FCABF. This is the costs the City
incurred in the second -previous month.
Line 1 represents the incremental cost associated with the prepay gas program above the
$7.50 per MMBtu base, including amounts payable to the Vernon Natural Gas Financing
Authority and debt service on City obligations allocable to the payment of costs of the
prepay gas program.
Line 2 represents incremental gas cost for MGS generation, adjusted for the commodity
swap, above the $7.50 per MMBtu base.
Line 3 represents incremental gas cost for self -generation above the $7.50 per MMBtu
base,
Line 4 represents the embedded fuel cost in purchased power on the wholesale power
market to serve load , It is computed by converting the MWhs purchased into equivalent
MMBtu, It represents the cost of equivalent gas cost above the $7.50 per MMBtu base.
Adjustment for Interruptible Service Under -Recovery ( C )
Represents the revenue short -fall from limiting the cost impact to Interruptible Service to
2.5 % increase over the prevailing average billing rate.

Procedures for Calculating the
Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor
The Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor (FCABF) will be applied based on kWh
billed under all schedules to reflect changes in the cost of natural gas (Fuel) consisting of
gas purchased from the Vernon Natural Gas Financing Authority; gas used for
generation, including gas used at the Malburg Generation Station and the embedded cost
(fuel cost) in purchased energy.
The FCABF, expressed to the nearest $0.0001per kilowatt-hour (kWh), is to be
calculated pursuant to the following equation:
FCABF = FC + C
S,
Where,
FCABF = Fuel cost Adjustment Billing Factor per Kilowatt Hour sold
FC = Fuel cost and embedded fuel cost in purchased energy for the previous period
C = Adjustment for Interruptible Service Under Recovery

2. Connected Load: Connected load is the sum of the rated capacities of all
of the customer's equipment that it is possible to connect to the Utility's
lines at the same time, determined to the nearest 1/10 hp. In no case will
charges be based on less than 2 hp for single-phase service or no less
than 3 hp for three-phase service. The rated capacity of the customer's
equipment will be the rated horsepower output of standard rated motors,
and the rated kilovolt -ampere input capacity of other equipment, with
each kilovolt -ampere of input considered equal to one horsepower.
Normally such ratings will be based on the manufacturer's rating as
shown on the nameplate or elsewhere but may, at the option of the
Utility, be based on tests or other reliable information.
3. Overloaded Motors: Whenever, upon test, any motor under normal
operating conditions is found to be delivering more than 115 percent of
its capacity as indicated by its nameplate rating, the Utility may disregard
the nameplate rating and base its charges upon the output as calculated
from test. Any motor which is billed on a basis in excess of its nameplate
rating in accordance with this special condition shall be rested at intervals
to be determined by the Utility or upon notification by the customer of a
permanent change in operating conditions.
4. Temporary Reduction of Connected Load: Where the use of energy is
seasonal or intermittent, no adjustment will be made for any temporary
reduction of connected load. Any customer, prior to resuming service on
such connected load within 12 months after it was disconnected, will be
required to pay all charges which would have been billed if the temporary
reduction of connected load had not been made.

3. Maximum Demand: The maximum demand in any month shall be the
measured maximum average kilowatt input, indicated or recorded by
instruments to be supplied by the Utility, during any 15-minute metered interval
in the month. Where demand is intermittent or subject to violent fluctuations, a
5-minute interval may be used.
4. Power Factor Adjustment: When the billing demand has exceeded 200 kW for
three consecutive months, a kilovar-hour meter will be installed as soon as
practical, and, thereafter, until the billing demand has been less than 150 kW for
twelve consecutive months, the charges will be adjusted each month for power
factor, as follows:
The charges will be increased by 20.6 cents per kilovar of maximum reactive
demand imposed on the Utility in excess of 33 percent of the maximum number
of kilowatts.
The kilovars of reactive demand shall be calculated by multiplying the kilowatts
of measured maximum demand by the ratio of the kilovar-hours to the kilowatt-
hours. Demand in kilowatts and kilovars shall be determined to the nearest unit.
A ratchet device will be installed on the kilovar-hour meter to prevent its
reverse operation on leading power factors.
5. Temporary Discontinuance of Service: Where the use of energy is seasonal or
intermittent, no adjustments will be made for a temporary discontinuance of
service. Any customer, prior to resuming service within twelve months after
such service was discontinued, will be required to pay all charges which would
have been billed if service had not been discontinued.
6. In -Lieu of Tax and Franchise Payments: The base rates and charges have been
increased by 3 percent to reflect payments in -lieu of tax and franchise payments.
7. Public Benefits Charge: A mandatory Public Benefits Charge has been assessed
pursuant to Assembly Bill 1890, signed into law by the Governor on September
20, 1996. The charge is 2.85 percent of the total bill before any special fees or
charges. In accordance with the mandates of Assembly Bill 995, the Public
Benefits Charge of 2.85 percent will be assessed through January 1, 2012.
S. Excess Transformer Capacity: The transformer capacity in excess of a
customer's contract demand which is either required by the Utility because of
the nature of the customer's load or requested by the customer. Excess
transformer capacity shall be billed at $1.03 per kVA per month.

Procedures for Calculating the
Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor
The Fuel Cost Adjustment Billing Factor (FCABF) will be applied based on kWh
billed under all schedules to reflect changes in the cost of natural gas (Fuel) consisting of
gas purchased from the Vernon Natural Gas Financing Authority; gas used for
generation, including gas used at the Malburg Generation Station and the embedded cost
(fuel cost) in purchased energy.
The FCABF, expressed to the nearest $0.0001per kilowatt-hour (kWh), is to be
calculated pursuant to the following equation:
FCABF = FC + C
Se
Where,
FCABF = Fuel cost Adjustment Billing Factor per Kilowatt Hour sold
FC = Fuel cost and embedded fuel cost in purchased energy for the previous period
C = Adjustment for Interruptible Service Under Recovery
Se = Kilowatt Hours sold in the previous period
FCABF Computation Sheet
Schedule FCA-I is attached to provide the computation sheet for all period once
implementation is completed.
Fuel Cost (EC)
Items 1 through 4 represent the fuel cost and embedded fuel cost in purchased power
which are to be used in computing the period's FCABF. This is the costs the City

increased 5% effective December 1, 2008. This rate increase is necessary:
1. To offset the increases in the City's operating costs;
2. To meet the City's long term debt, bank and ratings covenants; and,
3. To better ensure the City's ability to access the capital markets to fund upcoming necessary
capital improvements to its system.
In addition, for the past few years, L&P has elected to increase rates at a pace less than the
growth of its operating expenses. It was determined that L&P's customers would benefit
from smaller, regular annual rate increases spread over several years as opposed to irregular,
larger rate increases. This "glide -path" rate approach would allow L&P customers to avoid
suffering dramatic "rate -shocks" and allow them to effectively budget for such increases. In
effect, the City has been in the interim subsidizing increased electric system costs.
Recommendation:
The City of Vernon Light and Power Department recommends the following;
1. Approval of a 5% retail electric rate increase for customers effective
December 1, 2008.
2. The amended electric rate schedules to be approved are attached.

2. Connected Load: Connected load is the sum of the rated capacities of all
of the customer's equipment that it is possible to connect to the Utility's
lines at the same time, determined to the nearest 1/10 hp. In no case will
charges be based on less than 2 hp for single-phase service or no less
than 3 hp for three-phase service. The rated capacity of the customer's
equipment will be the rated horsepower output of standard rated motors,
and the rated kilovolt -ampere input capacity of other equipment, with
each kilovolt -ampere of input considered equal to one horsepower.
Normally such ratings will be based on the manufacturer's rating as
shown on the nameplate or elsewhere but may, at the option of the
Utility, be based on tests or other reliable information.
Overloaded Motors: Whenever, upon test, any motor under normal
operating conditions is found to be delivering more than 115 percent of
its capacity as indicated by its nameplate rating, the Utility may disregard
the nameplate rating and base its charges upon the output as calculated
from test. Any motor which is billed on a basis in excess of its nameplate
rating in accordance with this special condition shall be rested at intervals
to be determined by the Utility or upon notification by the customer of a
permanent change in operating conditions.
4. Temporary Reduction of Connected Load: Where the use of energy is
seasonal or intermittent, no adjustment will be made for any temporary
reduction of connected load. Any customer, prior to resuming service on
such connected load within 12 months after it was disconnected, will be
required to pay all charges which would have been billed if the temporary
reduction of connected load had not been made.
5. In -Lieu Tax and Franchise Payments: The base rates and charges have

3. Maximum Demand: The maximum demand in any month shall be the
measured maximum average kilowatt input, indicated or recorded by
instruments to be supplied by the Utility, during any 15-minute metered interval
in the month. Where demand is intermittent or subject to violent fluctuations, a
5-minute interval may be used.
4. Power Factor Adjustment: When the billing demand has exceeded 2OO kW for
three consecutive months, a lcilovar-hour meter will be installed as soon as
practical, and, thereafter, until the billing demand has been less than 150 kW for
twelve consecutive months, the charges will be adjusted each month for power
factor, as follows:
The charges will be increased by 20.6 cents per lcilovar of maximum reactive
demand imposed on the Utility in excess of 33 percent of the maximum number
of kilowatts.
The kilovars of reactive demand shall be calculated by multiplying the kilowatts
of measured maximum demand by the ratio of the kilovar-hours to the kilowatt-
hours. Demand in kilowatts and kilovars shall be determined to the nearest unit.
A ratchet device will be installed on the kilovar-hour meter to prevent its
reverse operation on leading power factors.
5. Temporary Discontinuance of Service: Where the use of energy is seasonal or
intermittent, no adjustments will be made for a temporary discontinuance of
service. Any customer, prior to resuming service within twelve months after
such service was discontinued, will be required to pay all charges which would

4. Voltage Discount: The charges including adjustment will be reduced by 3% for
service delivered and metered at voltages of from 2 IN through 10 kV; by 4% for
service delivered and metered at voltages of from 11 kV through 50 kV; and by 5%
for service delivered and metered at voltages over 50 kV; except that when only one
transformation from a transmission voltage level is involved, a customer normally
entitled to a 3% discount will be entitled to a 4% discount.
5. Power Factor Adjustment:
a. Service Delivered and Metered at 4 kV or Greater: The charges will be
adjusted each month for reactive demand as follows:
The charges will be increased by 20.6 cents per kilovar of maximum reactive
demand imposed on the Utility in excess of 20 percent of the maximum
number of kilowatts.
The maximum reactive demand shall be the highest measured maximum
average kilovar demand indicated or recorded by metering to be supplied by
the Utility during any 15-minute metered interval in the month. The kilovars
shall be determined to the nearest unit. A ratchet device will be installed on
each kilovar meter to prevent reverse operation of the meter.
b. Service Delivered and Metered at Less than 4 M The charges will be
adjusted each month for the power factor as follows:
The charges will be increased by 20.6 cents per kilovar of maximum reactive
demand imposed on the Utility in excess of 20 percent of the maximum
number of kilowatts.
The kilovars of reactive demand shall be calculated by multiplying the
kilowatts of measured maximum demand by the ratio of the kilovar-hours to
the kilowatt-hours. Demand in kilowatts and kilovars shall be determined to
the nearest unit. A cachet device will be installed on the kilovar-hour meter
to prevent its reverse operation on leading power factors.
6. Temporary Discontinuance of Service: Where the use of energy is seasonal or
intermittent, no adjustments will be made for a temporary discontinuance of service.
Any customer, prior to resuming service within twelve months after such service
was discontinued, will be required to pay all charges which would have been billed
if service had not been discontinued.

7. Excess Transformer Capacity: A transformer capacity in excess of a customer's
contract demand which is either required by the Utility because of the nature of the
customer's load or requested by the customer. Excess transformer capacity shall be
billed at $1.03 kVA per month.
8. Contract Demand: A contract demand will be established by the Utility, based upon
applicant's demand requirements for any customer newly requesting service on this
schedule and for any customer of record on this schedule who requests an increase
or decrease in transformer capacity in accordance with the Light and Power
Department Rules for Electric Service. A contract demand arrangement is available
upon request for all customers of record on this schedule. Contract demand is based
upon the nominal kilovolt -ampere rating of the Utility's serving transformer(s) or
the standard transformer size determined by the Utility as required to serve the
customer's stated measurable kilowatt demand, whichever is less and is expressed in
kilowatts.
9. Minimum Demand Charge: Where a non -time related maximum demand or contract
demand is established, a monthly minimum demand charge shall be $1.03 per
kilowatt of contract demand.
10. Public Benefits Charge: A mandatory Public Benefits Charge has been assessed
pursuant to Assembly Bill 1890, signed into law by the Governor on September 20,
1996. The charge is 2.85 percent of the total bill before any special fees or charges.
In accordance with the mandates of Assembly Bill 995, the Public Benefits Charge
of 2.85 percent will be assessed through January 1, 2012.
11. In -Lieu of Tax and Franchise Payments: The base rates and charges have been
increased by 3 percent to reflect payments in -lieu of tax and franchise payments.
12. Voltage: Service will be supplied at one standard voltage.
13. Removal or Modification of Equipment: Where transformers or facilities for services
are ordered removed or modified by a customer and such services are restored within
36 months from the date of the order to remove or to modify, the customer shall pay
to the Utility in advance of reinstallation a nonrefundable amount equal to the cost of
removal or modification of the transformers or facilities of the prior installation and
the estimated cost of such reinstallation.
14. Fuel Cost Adjustment: Fuel cost adjustment charge will be assessed pursuant to Exhibit A
and Exhibit B.
