CITY OF VERNON PUBLIC UTILITIES DEPARTMENT
REPORT REGARDING THE ESTABLSHMENT OF A REVISED
TRANSMISSION REVENUE BALANCING ACCOUNT ADJUSTMENT
FOR CALENDAR YEAR 2022
October 19, 2021
The City of Vernon (“Vernon” or “City”) is a Scheduling Coordinator and a
Participating Transmission Owner (“PTO”) in the California Independent System
Operator Corporation (“ISO”). To participate in the ISO, PTOs are required to turn
over administrative control of their transmission facilities and entitlements to the ISO.
In return, the ISO collects revenues for each PTO pursuant to calculations that
reflect the expenses and capital costs incurred by each PTO to provide transmission
services.
The relationship between PTOs and the ISO is governed by a Transmission Control
Agreement (“TCA”), which sets forth the specific duties and obligations of all PTOs.
The TCA requires all PTOs to file a Transmission Owner Tariff (“TO Tariff”) with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”).
Pursuant to Section 5.2 of the TO Tariff, Vernon updates its Transmission Revenue
Balancing Account Adjustment (“TRBAA”) annually. The TRBAA is a tariff
mechanism designed to ensure that all Transmission Revenue Credits (“TRCs”) are
flowed through to ISO open access transmission tariff (“ISO Tariff”) customers via
annual update filings at the FERC by PTOs. Appendix F, Schedule 3, Section
6.1(b), of the ISO Tariff describes the annual TRBAA calculation as “a dollar amount
based on the projected Transmission Revenue Credits as adjusted for the true up of
the prior year’s difference between projected and actual credits.” This Report
supports the establishment of a revised TRBAA based on the requirements of the
TO Tariff and the ISO Tariff.

SUMMARY
Section 5.2 of the Vernon TO Tariff identifies the items to be reflected in the TRBAA
and sets forth the procedure for revising the Transmission Revenue Balancing
Account (“TRBA”) on an annual basis, as follows:
5.2 Transmission Revenue Balancing Account Adjustment
The Participating TO shall maintain a TRBA that will ensure that all
Transmission Revenue Credits and the refunds, specified in Sections 6
and 8 of Appendix F, Schedule 3 of the ISO Tariff, flow through to
transmission customers.
The TRBAA shall be equal to: TRBAA = TRCF + TRCT + I.
TRCT = The balance representing the prior period difference between
the projected Transmission Revenue Credits and the actual credits.
TRCF = The forecast of Transmission Revenue Credits for the
following calendar year.
I = The interest balance for the TRBA, which shall be calculated using
the interest rate pursuant to Section 35.19(a) of FERC’s regulations
under the Federal Power Act (18 C.F.R. § 35.19(a)). Interest shall be
calculated based on the average TRBA principal balance each month,
compounded quarterly.
Transmission Revenue Credits (“TRCs”) are defined in Section 3.12 of the current
Vernon TO Tariff as follows:
3.12 Transmission Revenue Credit:The sum of all revenues received by
the Participating TO from the ISO for Wheeling service.
The TRBAA is based on the balance in the TRBA as of September 30 of the current
year and a forecast of the TRCs expected to be received in the following year. A
Resolution No. 2021-33

{D0465763.DOC / 1}
summary of the elements of the Vernon TRBAA proposed to be effective January 1,
2022 is shown in Exhibit 1. It shows that the balance in the Vernon TRBA as of
September 30, 2021, which reflects services rendered through June 30, 2021, is
negative $24,113, including interest. TRCs are projected to be negative $11,846.
Taken together, these items sum up to a TRBAA to be effective for the twelve
months starting January 1, 2022 of negative balance of $35,959.
All of the Vernon transmission entitlements that are reflected in Vernon’s
transmission rates and the TRBAA are high voltage facilities. Therefore, there is no
need to allocate TRCs or other TRBAA components between high voltage and low
voltage rates.
CALCULATION OF THE REVISED TRBAA
The TRBAA is equal to the sum of: TRCF + TRCT + I.
The balance in the TRBA of a negative $24,113 as of September 30, 2021
represents the sum of the TRCT and the I components.
The TRCT Component of Vernon’s TRBAA
TRCT represents a balance that reflects the difference for the prior period between
the projected TRCs and the actual credits. The prior period in this case is the
twelve-month period starting October 1, 2020 and ending September 30, 2021.
A summary of the determination of the September 30, 2021 balance in the Vernon
TRBA is shown in Exhibit 2. The TRCT component reflects 1) the previously
projected 2020 TRCs for Vernon of $8,634 or $719.54 per month, for the months
October through December 2020, and 2) projected 2021 TRCs of negative
$24,971.40, or $2,080.95 per month, for the months January through September
2021—both elements as reflected on Line No. 2 of Exhibit 2. Adjustments for actual
payable TRCs reflecting high voltage wheeling revenues payable to the TO (i.e.,
Vernon) are reflected in Line 3 of Exhibit 2. Distribution of non-refundable
interconnection amounts (further discussed below) are reflected in Line 4 of Exhibit 2
and produce the under (over) collection figures for the monthly payable TRC
Resolution No. 2021-33

balances reflected in Line 5 of Exhibit 2. The monthly balances are carried forward
from month to month in Line 6 of Exhibit 2. Interest is calculated monthly (the I
component) on the average monthly balance and is compounded quarterly into the
monthly payable TRC balances pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Vernon TO Tariff.
The interest calculation for payable TRC balances is shown in Lines 7-9 of Exhibit 2.
The TRBA balance on September 30, 2021 is shown in Line 13 of Exhibit 2.
The I (Interest) Component of Vernon’s TRBAA
As discussed above, the I component reflects interest on payable balances and on
payments for prior year TRCs. As provided in Section 5.2 of Vernon’s TO Tariff,
monthly interest carrying costs are calculated using the 18 C.F.R. § 35.19(a) interest
rates and calculation method. These interest rates are published by FERC and
reflect the prime rate values published in the Federal Reserve Bank’s “Selected
Interest Rates.”
The calculation of interest is reflected in Exhibit 2 and is included as an integral part
of the calculation of the TRBA balance on September 30, 2021. It is not reflected as
a separate line item in Exhibit 1.
The TRCF Component of Vernon’s TRBAA
The TRCF component of Vernon’s TRBAA stands for the forecast of TRCs for the
following calendar year, in this case 2022. These forecast TRCs reflect projected
wheeling revenues.
Wheeling revenues, which correspond to ISO Charge Type 384, are projected to be
a credit or negative $11,845.91, as shown in Exhibit 3.
These projections are based on the accruals for services provided during the twelve-
month period ending June 30, 2021, which are reflected in the ISO’s invoices to
Vernon through September 30, 2021. A summary of the monthly accruals for the
twelve months ending September 30, 2021 is shown in Exhibit 4.

Distribution of Non-Refundable Interconnection Amounts
Under Section 7.6 of Appendix DD of the ISO Tariff, “Application of Non-Refundable
Amounts,” “[t]he CAISO shall calculate and disburse available non -refundable
interconnection study deposits and interconnection financial security in conjunction
with the annual reassessment performed during the year that the withdrawal period
ends.” As a Participating Transmission Owner, Vernon received a share of the non-
refundable interconnection financial security and study deposit amounts for projects
withdrawn through June 30, 2021. In particular, Vernon received $87.53 in the
month of November 2020 and $5,402.29 in the month of August 2021 for projects
withdrawn through June 30, 2021.
In order to distribute those funds to its ratepayers through its TRBAA mechanism in
accordance with Section 7.6 (c) of Appendix DD, Vernon includes Line 4 in the
spreadsheet it uses to calculate its TRBAA, Exhibit 2 to this report. That line is
entitled “Distribution of Non-Refundable Interconnection Amounts” and tracks funds
distributed by the ISO from month to month.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Approve the revised calculated TRBAA of a negative $35,959,
2. Approve replacing the existing TRBAA of negative $24,971 with the revised
TRBAA for 2022 of a negative $35,959.
3.Approve the attached revised Appendix I of Vernon’s TO Tariff refle cting the
TRBAA of negative $35,959.
4. Authorize outside counsel to submit Vernon’s TRBAA and supporting
documentation, such as this Report and the City Council Resolution
approving the revised TRBAA to FERC.

Agenda Item No. COV-808-2021
Submitted by: Adriana Ramos
Submitting Department: Public Utilities
Meeting Date: October 19, 2021
SUBJECT
Transmission Revenue Requirement and Transmission Revenue Balancing Account Adjustment for 2022
Recommendation:
A. Adopt Resolution No. 2021-32 adopting a revised Transmission Revenue Requirement for 2022 in
accordance with Vernon's Transmission Owner Tariff and providing for Tariff Sheet changes to
implement the adjustment; and
B. Adopt Resolution No. 2021-33 establishing a Transmission Revenue Balancing Account Adjustment
for 2022 in accordance with Vernon’s Transmission Owner Tariff and providing for Tariff Sheet changes
to implement the adjustment.
Background:
The City of Vernon is a Scheduling Coordinator and a Participating Transmission Owner (PTO) in the
California Independent System Operator Corporation (CAISO). To participate in the CAISO, PTOs are
required to turn over administrative control of their transmission facilities and entitlements to the CAISO.
In return, the CAISO collects revenues for each PTO, pursuant to calculations that reflect the expenses
and capital costs incurred by each PTO to provide transmission services. These calculations are known
as Transmission Revenue Requirements (TRRs). The relationship between PTOs and the CAISO is
governed by a Transmission Control Agreement (TCA), which sets forth the specific duties and
obligations of all PTOs. The TCA requires all PTOs to file a Transmission Owner Tariff (TO Tariff) with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). The TCA further requires all PTOs to file any changes
in their TRRs with FERC. Each PTO must also include in its TO Tariff its Gross Load, which the CAISO
uses to calculate its grid-wide Transmission Access Charge (TAC) rates, which is related to the City’s
ability to recover its full TRR.
At present, the City’s high voltage transmission entitlements consist of three long-term contracts (known
as “existing transmission contracts” or “ETCs”), which provide the City with dedicated access to high
voltage transmission facilities owned by other entities. Specifically, the City has contractual entitlements
to utilize transmission assets pursuant to one long-term transmission contract with the Los Angeles
Department of Water and Power (LADWP) and two long-term transmission contracts with Southern
California Edison (SCE). The ETCs with SCE consist of one (the “SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC” described
in SCE’s FERC Rate Schedule 360) providing 11 MW of transmission capacity along the path between
the Victorville-Lugo midpoint and the point of interconnection with the City’s internal transmission system
(City Gate), and one (the "SCE Mead ETC” described in SCE’s FERC Rate Schedule 207) providing 26
MW of transmission capacity along the path between the Mead 230 substation and the City Gate. The
costs of these ETCs make up the majority of the costs recovered through the City’s TRR.
The TRR Report, attached as an exhibit to the resolution, supports the establishment of a revised
transmission revenue requirement associated with Vernon’s high voltage entitlements.
Further, pursuant to Section 5.2 of the TO Tariff, the City updates its Transmission Revenue Balancing
Account Adjustment (TRBAA) annually. The TRBAA is a tariff mechanism designed to ensure that all
Transmission Revenue Credits (TRCs) are flowed through to CAISO open access transmission tariff
(CAISO Tariff) customers via annual update filings at the FERC by PTOs. Appendix F, Schedule 3,
Section 6.1(b), of the CAISO Tariff describes the annual TRBAA calculation as “a dollar amount based
on the projected Transmission Revenue Credits as adjusted for the true-up of the prior year’s difference
between projected and actual credits.”
The TRBAA Report, attached as an exhibit to the resolution, supports the establishment of a revised
TRBAA for 2022, based on the requirements of the TO Tariff and the CAISO Tariff.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 54354.5, the public hearing notice was posted at City Hall on
September 22, 2021 and published in the Los Angeles Wave (Huntington Park Bulletin) on September
30 and October 7, 2021 (Attachment 3).
Fiscal Impact:
The City will recover incurred costs of the Existing Transmission Service Contracts.

A.The City of Vernon (City) is a chartered municipal corporation of the State of
California that owns and operates a system for the generation, purchase,
transmission, distribution and sale of electric capacity and energy.
B.The City is a Participating Transmission Owner (PTO) with the California
Independent System Operator Corporation (CAISO), and the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) has approved its existing Transmission Owner
Tariff (TO Tariff).
C.The CAISO reimburses the City according to the City’s current Transmission
Revenue Requirement (TRR) in return for the City turning over to the CAISO the
operation and control of the City’s transmission entitlements.
D.Each PTO must include in its TO Tariff its Gross Load, which the CAISO uses to
calculate its grid-wide Transmission Access Charge (TAC) rates, and which is
related to the City’s ability to recover its full TRR.
E.The City’s transmission entitlements include rights under certain contracts (each
an “ETC”) including (i) an agreement with the City of Los Angeles Department of
Water and Power entitled “Los Angeles-Vernon Adelanto-Victorville-Lugo Firm
Transmission Service Agreement” (LAWDP ETC); (ii) an agreement with Southern
California Edison Company (SCE) entitled “Amended and Restated Edison-
Vernon Victorville-Lugo Firm Transmission Service Agreement” (SCE Victorville-
Lugo ETC); and (iii) an agreement with SCE entitled “Amended and Restated
Edison-Vernon Mead Firm Transmission Services Agreement” (SCE Mead ETC).
F. The City’s costs under the LADWP ETC, the SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC, and the
SCE Mead ETC have traditionally been based upon a negotiated fixed “path-
specific” rate charged by LADWP or SCE, based on the actual costs of the specific
transmission lines made available under each ETC, multiplied by the amount of
transmission capacity guaranteed to the City under each ETC.
G. On August 1, 2008, SCE filed a petition with FERC seeking to amend the pricing
structure under the SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC and the SCE Mead ETC to replace
the negotiated path-specific rates set forth in those ETCs with a “postage-stamp”
Resolution No. 2021-32
Page 2 of 15 _______________________
rate which reflects the blended rate SCE charges to the CAISO for the actual usage
of all of SCE’s transmission lines by customers of the CAISO.
H. The postage-stamp rate which SCE charges to the CAISO is derived from SCE’s
TRR and, therefore, will change each time SCE amends its TRR.
I. On September 30, 2008, FERC accepted, subject to refund and hearing and
settlement procedures, SCE’s proposed revisions under the SCE Victorville-Lugo
ETC and the SCE Mead ETC to replace the negotiated path-specific rates set forth
in those ETCs with a postage-stamp rate, and thus the City’s costs under the SCE
Victorville-Lugo ETC and the SCE Mead ETC will vary proportionately with any
changes in SCE’s TRR.
J. The City reached a settlement agreement (SCE Settlement) with SCE to amend
the SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC and the SCE Mead ETC to replace the path-specific
rates set forth in those ETCs with SCE’s postage stamp rate after a phase-in period
that began on August 1, 2009, during which the City’s path-specific rates in those
ETCs are gradually stepped-up over three years (the “Phase-In Rates”) until the
path-specific rates are equal to SCE’s postage-stamp rate as of January 1, 2013.
K. Under the SCE Settlement, the City’s costs for the SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC and
the SCE Mead ETC are equal to (i) from August 1, 2009, until December 31, 2012,
the Phase-In Rates, and beginning on January 1, 2013, the SCE postage-stamp
rate, in each case multiplied by (ii) the amount of transmission capacity guaranteed
to the City under each ETC.
L. FERC approved the SCE Settlement pursuant to an order issued September 11,
2009, 128 FERC 61,237 (2009), in FERC Docket Nos. ER08-1343-000, ER08-
1353-000, ER09-187-000, ER09-187-001, EL09-19-000, and ER09-446-000 (SCE
Settlement Order).
M. On behalf of the City, the Brattle Group, an experienced utilities consulting firm,
developed a tracking mechanism for the City’s TRR (TRR Tracking Mechanism)
to allow the City’s TRR to be adjusted annually, effective January 1 of each year,
to reflect changes in the City’s costs under the SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC and the
SCE Mead ETC that change as a result of (i) the stepped-up rates implemented
between August 1, 2009 and December 31, 2012; or (ii) any change in SCE’s TRR
on or after January 1, 2013.
N. On the basis of The Brattle Group’s analysis and evidence from City staff, which
was considered during a public meeting of the City Council held on July 13, 2009,
the City, on July 15, 2009 (July 15 FERC Filing), filed with FERC proposed
revisions to its TO Tariff proposing stated TRRs for each of the years 2010 to 2012,
Resolution No. 2021-32
Page 3 of 15 _______________________
which dollar amounts were also included in the SCE Settlement (TO Tariff
Revisions).
O. The City also submitted in the July 15 FERC Filing a request to utilize an “ETC
Adjustment Clause” to automatically adjust each year the costs the City incurs
attributable to any changes in SCE’s TRR associated with SCE’s High Voltage
Existing Contracts Access Charge (HVECAC) rate.
P. FERC approved the City’s request to utilize an ETC Adjustment Clause to reflect
annual projected changes to SCE’s TRR, in an order issued September 11, 2009,
128 FERC ¶ 61,235 (2009), in FERC Docket No. EL09-64-000 (TO Tariff Order).
Q. Under the TO Tariff Order, the City’s TO Tariff revisions went into effect on August
1, 2009.
R. On January 6, 2015, the City approved revisions to the template used to calculate
the annual ETC Adjustment Clause.
S. On April 8, 2015, FERC approved the City’s 2015 filing with FERC reflecting
modifications to the base TRR as calculated using the revised ETC Adjustment
Clause template.
T. On October 15, 2019, the City approved revisions to the Gross Load included in
the City’s TO Tariff that updated the Gross Load to be based on a fiscal year 2019
test year, rather than 2016 actual load data.
U. On December 20, 2019, FERC approved the City’s 2019 filing with FERC reflecting
revisions to the Gross Load included in the City’s TO Tariff.
V. The City is required under the TO Tariff Order to submit annual filings with FERC
reflecting modifications to the base TRR.
W. A Notice of Public Hearing was published on September 30, 2021 and October 7,
2021, notifying all interested parties that a hearing to consider evidence to
establish the City’s revised TRR was scheduled for October 19, 2021 at 9:00 am,
subject to the hearing being continued or adjourned to a stated time and place
without further notice of public hearing.
X. On October 19, 2021, the City Council held a Public Hearing in which the City
Council took evidence from staff and those other persons in attendance who
wished to be heard on the calculation of the City’s revised TRR.
Y. The TRR for 2022 is shown in the amended Appendix I to the TO Tariff, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and made a part hereof.
Resolution No. 2021-32
Page 4 of 15 _______________________

CITY OF VERNON PUBLIC UTILITIES DEPARTMENT
REPORT REGARDING THE ADOPTION OF A REVISED TRANSMISSION
REVENUE REQUIREMENT ASSOCIATED WITH VERNON’S HIGH VOLTAGE
ENTITLEMENTS
October 19, 2021
The City of Vernon (“Vernon” or “City”) is a Scheduling Coordinator and a
Participating Transmission Owner (“PTO”) in the California Independent System
Operator Corporation (“ISO”). To participate in the ISO, PTOs are required to turn
over administrative control of their transmission facilities and entitlements to the ISO.
In return, the ISO collects revenues for each PTO pursuant to calculations that
reflect the expenses and capital costs incurred by each PTO to provide transmission
services. These calculations are known as Transmission Revenue Requirements
(“TRRs”).
The relationship between PTOs and the ISO is governed by a Transmission Control
Agreement (“TCA”), which sets forth specific duties and obligations of all PTOs. The
TCA requires all PTOs to file a Transmission Owner Tariff (“TO Tariff”) and TRR with
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”). The TCA further requires all
PTOs to file any changes in their TRRs with FERC. Each PTO must also include in
its TO Tariff its Gross Load which the ISO uses to calculate its grid-wide
Transmission Access Charge (“TAC”) rates, and which is related to the City’s ability
to recover its full TRR.
TRANSMISSION REVENUE REQUIREMENT
At present, the City’s high voltage transmission assets consist of three long-term
contracts (known as “existing transmission contracts” or “ETCs”) which provide the
City with dedicated access to high voltage transmission facilities owned by other
entities. Specifically, the City has contractual entitlements to utilize transmission
assets pursuant to one long-term transmission contract with the Los Angeles
Department of Water and Power (“LADWP”) and two long-term transmission
contracts with Southern California Edison (“SCE”). The ETCs with SCE consist of
EXHIBIT B
Resolution No. 2021-32
Page 8 of 15

TRR Report 2022
Page 2 of 6
{D0465787.DOC / 1}
one (the “SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC” described in SCE’s FERC Rate Schedule 360)
providing 11 MW of transmission capacity along the path between the Victorville -
Lugo midpoint and the point of interconnection with the City’s internal transmission
system (the “City Gate”), and one (the “SCE Mead ETC” described in SCE’s FERC
Rate Schedule 207) providing 26 MW of transmission capacity along the path
between the Mead 230 kV substation and the City Gate.
The costs of these ETCs make up the majority of the costs recovered through the
City’s TRR. Until recently, for each of the ETCs, the City paid the owner of the
transmission facilities a fixed rate which was specific to the transmission path
provided under each ETC.
On August 1, 2008, SCE proposed to increase its TRR and associated rates in
FERC Docket No. ER08-1343-000. In a related filing submitted in FERC Docket No.
ER08-1353-000, SCE proposed to transition both of its ETCs with Vernon from their
current, fixed “path-specific” rates to a so-called “postage stamp” rate methodology
which reflects the blended rate which SCE charges the ISO pursuant to its own
TRRs for the actual usage of all of SCE’s transmission facilities by customers of the
ISO (the “HVECAC Rate”). The HVECAC Rate that SCE proposed in its TO Tariff is
derived from SCE’s TRR and, therefore, will change each time SCE amend s its
TRR.
On September 30, 2008, FERC accepted, subject to refund and hearing and
settlement procedures, SCE’s proposed revisions to its TO Tariff to transition the
negotiated path-specific rates set forth in the SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC and the SCE
Mead ETC to the uniform HVECAC Rate, and thus the City’s costs under those
ETCs will vary proportionately with any changes in SCE’s TRR.
The City reached a settlement agreement (the “SCE Settlement”) with SCE to
amend the SCE Victorville-Lugo ETC and the SCE Mead ETC to fully transition the
path-specific rates set forth in those ETCs to SCE’s HVECAC Rate after a phase -in
period that began on August 1, 2009, during which the City’s path -specific rates in
Resolution No. 2021-32
Page 9 of 15
________________________
TRR Report 2022
Page 3 of 6
{D0465787.DOC / 1}
those ETCs have been gradually stepped-up under incrementally increasing fixed
rates (the “Phase-In Rates”) until the path-specific rates are equal to the HVECAC
Rate as of January 1, 2013. FERC approved the SCE Settlement pursuant to an
order issued September 11, 2009, 128 FERC ¶ 61, 237 (2009), in FERC Docket
Nos. ER08-1343-000, ER08-1353-000, ER09-187-000, ER09-187-001, EL09-19-
000, and ER09-446-000 (“SCE Settlement Order”).
On behalf of the City, The Brattle Group, an experienced utilities consulting firm,
developed a TRR tracking mechanism clause for the City’s TRR (“ETC Adjustment
Clause”), which allows the City’s TRR to be adjusted annually, effective January 1 of
each year, to reflect changes in the City’s transmission expenses associated with
any changes implemented by SCE in the HVECAC Rate associated with the SCE
Victorville-Lugo ETC and the SCE Mead ETC.
On the basis of The Brattle Group’s analysis and evidence from City staff, which was
considered during a public meeting of the City Council held on July 13, 2009, the
City, on July 15, 2009 (“July 15 FERC Filing”), filed with FERC the proposed (i)
revisions to its TO Tariff proposing the City’s stated TRRs for each of the years 2010
to 2012, which dollar amounts were also included in the SCE Settlement (“TO Tariff
Revisions”) and (ii) the ETC Adjustment Clause tracking mechanism.
The July 15 FERC Filing acknowledged that, to the extent that the SCE Settlement
was accepted, because the stated Phase-In Rates would be fixed, the ETC
Adjustment Clause for the term of the Phase-In Rates would be zero.
FERC approved the City’s July 15 FERC Filing, including the TO Tariff Revisions,
the City’s proposed calculations of the TRR for years 2010 to 2012, and the City’s
request to utilize an ETC Adjustment Clause, in an order issued September 11,
2009, 128 FERC ¶ 61,235 (2009), in FERC Docket No. EL09-64-000 (“TO Tariff
Order”). The City is required under the TO Tariff Order to submit annual filings each
year with FERC reflecting annual modifications to the base TRR of the City.

{D0465787.DOC / 1}
In January 2015, the City approved revisions to the template used to calculate the
ETC Adjustment Clause and submitted these revisions to FERC. On April 8, 2015,
FERC approved the City’s 2015 TRR filing as calculated using the revised ETC
Adjustment Clause template. For this filing, the template has been revised to
account for prior year authorized ETC adjustment amounts; the City has prepared
this year’s filing using the revised template.
CALCULATION OF THE ETC ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE
Section 5.3 of the Vernon TO Tariff identifies the items to be reflected in the ETC
Adjustment. The ETC Adjustment Clause shall be calculated as:
ETC Adjustment = ETCCF+ ETCCT+ I.
ETCCF = The forecast of SCE ETC Cost for the following calendar year
ETCCT = The balance representing the prior period difference between the
projected cost of the SCE ETCs (“SCE ETC Cost”) and the actual cost.
I = The interest balance for the ETC, which shall be calculated using the
interest rate pursuant to Section 35.19(a) of FERC’s regulations under the
Federal Power Act (18 C.F.R. 35.19(a)). Interest shall be calculated based
on the average ETC true-up balance each month, compounded quarterly.
A summary of the elements of the Vernon ETC Adjustment Clause proposed to be
effective January 1, 2022 is shown in Exhibit 1. The ETC Adjustment Clause to be
effective for the twelve months starting January 1, 2022 is $2,751,024.
The ETCCF Component
The ETCCF component stands for the forecast of SCE ETC costs for the following
calendar year, in this case 2022. These forecast SCE ETC costs reflect 2022 rates
from Southern California Edison Company’s draft FERC Filing, posted on its website
pursuant to its formula rate protocols (approved in FERC Docket No. ER11-3697).
Resolution No. 2021-32
Page 11 of 15
________________________
TRR Report 2022
Page 5 of 6
{D0465787.DOC / 1}
That filing is scheduled to be made at FERC, in its final form, in November 2021;
Vernon will true up any differences in its SCE ETC costs when it makes its 20 23
TRR filing.
The ETCCF for 2022 SCE ETC costs are projected to be $3,205,680 as shown in
line 7 of Exhibit 1.
The ETCCT Component
ETCCT represents a balance that reflects the difference between prior year forecast
and actual SCE ETC costs. The prior period in this case is the twelve-month period
starting October 1, 2020 and ending September 30, 2021.
A summary of the determination of the September 30, 2021 balance in the ETC
Adjustment Clause is shown in Exhibit 1. The ETCCT component reflects 1) the
previously projected 2020 SCE ETC costs of $250,120 per month, for the months
October through December 2020 and projected 2021 SCE ETC costs of $206,090
per month, for the months January through September 2021, 2) actual 2020 SCE
ETC costs of $ 179,820 per month, for the months October through December 2020
and $199,800 per month, for the months January through September 2021, 3)
refunds received by the City, 4) prior year authorized ETC adjustment of $30,397
per month for the months October through December 2020 and $82,465 per month
for the months January through September 2021 —all elements as reflected on Line
No. 8, 15, 16 and 17 of Exhibit 1. The net of these elements produce the under (or
over) collection figures reflected in Line 18 of Exhibit 1. The ending balance is the
(over)/under collection –as reflected on Line 19 of Exhibit 1. The cumulative monthly
balances are carried forward from month to month and the ETCCT component on
September 30, 2021 of negative $423,714 is shown in line 20 of Exhibit 1.
The I (Interest) Component
The Interest component reflects interest on the difference between prior year
forecast and actual SCE ETC costs. The monthly interest carrying costs are
calculated using the 18 C.F.R. § 35.19(a) interest rates and calculation method.
Resolution No. 2021-32

{D0465787.DOC / 1}
These interest rates are published by FERC and reflect the prime rate values
published in the Federal Reserve Bank’s “Selected Interest Rates.”
Interest is calculated monthly on the average cumulative monthly balance and is
compounded quarterly. The interest component is negative $30,942 as shown in
Lines 21-25 of Exhibit 1.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Approve the establishment of a revised TRR for 2022 and revised Appendix I
to the TO Tariff.
2. Authorize outside counsel to submit the City’s TRR, ETC Adjustment Clause
amount, the revised Appendix I to the TO Tariff, and this City Council
Resolution approving the TRR and ETC Adjustment Clause amount to FERC
on behalf of the City of Vernon.

CITY OF VERNON PUBLIC UTILITIES DEPARTMENT
REPORT REGARDING THE ESTABLSHMENT OF A REVISED
TRANSMISSION REVENUE BALANCING ACCOUNT ADJUSTMENT
FOR CALENDAR YEAR 2022
October 19, 2021
The City of Vernon (“Vernon” or “City”) is a Scheduling Coordinator and a
Participating Transmission Owner (“PTO”) in the California Independent System
Operator Corporation (“ISO”). To participate in the ISO, PTOs are required to turn
over administrative control of their transmission facilities and entitlements to the ISO .
In return, the ISO collects revenues for each PTO pursuant to calculations that
reflect the expenses and capital costs incurred by each PTO to provide transmission
services.
The relationship between PTOs and the ISO is governed by a Transmission Control
Agreement (“TCA”), which sets forth the specific duties and obligations of all PTOs.
The TCA requires all PTOs to file a Transmission Owner Tariff (“TO Tariff”) with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”).
Pursuant to Section 5.2 of the TO Tariff, Vernon updates its Transmission Revenue
Balancing Account Adjustment (“TRBAA”) annually. The TRBAA is a tariff
mechanism designed to ensure that all Transmission Revenue Credits (“TRCs”) are
flowed through to ISO open access transmission tariff (“ISO Tariff”) customers via
annual update filings at the FERC by PTOs. Appendix F, Schedule 3, Section
6.1(b), of the ISO Tariff describes the annual TRBAA calculation as “a dollar amount
based on the projected Transmission Revenue Credits as adjusted for the true up of
the prior year’s difference between projected and actual credits.” This Report
supports the establishment of a revised TRBAA based on the requirements of the
TO Tariff and the ISO Tariff.

TRBAA Report 2021

SUMMARY
Section 5.2 of the Vernon TO Tariff identifies the items to be reflected in the TRBAA
and sets forth the procedure for revising the Transmission Revenue Balancing
Account (“TRBA”) on an annual basis, as follows:
5.2 Transmission Revenue Balancing Account Adjustment
The Participating TO shall maintain a TRBA that will ensure that all
Transmission Revenue Credits and the refunds, specified in Sections 6
and 8 of Appendix F, Schedule 3 of the ISO Tariff, flow through to
transmission customers.
The TRBAA shall be equal to: TRBAA = TRCF + TRCT + I.
TRCT = The balance representing the prior period difference between
the projected Transmission Revenue Credits and the actual credits.
TRCF = The forecast of Transmission Revenue Credits for the
following calendar year.
I = The interest balance for the TRBA, which shall be calculated using
the interest rate pursuant to Section 35.19(a) of FERC’s regulations
under the Federal Power Act (18 C.F.R. § 35.19(a)). Interest shall be
calculated based on the average TRBA principal balance each month,
compounded quarterly.
Transmission Revenue Credits (“TRCs”) are defined in Section 3.12 of the current
Vernon TO Tariff as follows:
3.12 Transmission Revenue Credit: The sum of all revenues received by
the Participating TO from the ISO for Wheeling service.
The TRBAA is based on the balance in the TRBA as of September 30 of the current
year and a forecast of the TRCs expected to be received in the following year . A
Resolution No. 2021-33

{D0465763.DOC / 1}
summary of the elements of the Vernon TRBAA proposed to be effective January 1,
2022 is shown in Exhibit 1. It shows that the balance in the Vernon TRBA as of
September 30, 2021, which reflects services rendered through June 30, 2021, is
negative $24,113, including interest. TRCs are projected to be negative $11,846.
Taken together, these items sum up to a TRBAA to be effective for the twelve
months starting January 1, 2022 of negative balance of $35,959.
All of the Vernon transmission entitlements that are reflected in Vernon’s
transmission rates and the TRBAA are high voltage facilities . Therefore, there is no
need to allocate TRCs or other TRBAA components between high voltage and low
voltage rates.
CALCULATION OF THE REVISED TRBAA
The TRBAA is equal to the sum of: TRCF + TRCT + I.
The balance in the TRBA of a negative $24,113 as of September 30, 2021
represents the sum of the TRCT and the I components.
The TRCT Component of Vernon’s TRBAA
TRCT represents a balance that reflects the difference for the prior period between
the projected TRCs and the actual credits. The prior period in this case is the
twelve-month period starting October 1, 2020 and ending September 30, 2021.
A summary of the determination of the September 30, 2021 balance in the Vernon
TRBA is shown in Exhibit 2. The TRCT component reflects 1) the previously
projected 2020 TRCs for Vernon of $8,634 or $719.54 per month, for the months
October through December 2020, and 2) projected 2021 TRCs of negative
$24,971.40, or $2,080.95 per month, for the months January through September
2021—both elements as reflected on Line No. 2 of Exhibit 2. Adjustments for actual
payable TRCs reflecting high voltage wheeling revenues payable to the TO (i.e.,
Vernon) are reflected in Line 3 of Exhibit 2. Distribution of non-refundable
interconnection amounts (further discussed below) are reflected in Line 4 of Exhibit 2
and produce the under (over) collection figures for the monthly payable TRC
Resolution No. 2021-33

{D0465763.DOC / 1}
balances reflected in Line 5 of Exhibit 2. The monthly balances are carried forward
from month to month in Line 6 of Exhibit 2. Interest is calculated monthly (the I
component) on the average monthly balance and is compounded quarterly into the
monthly payable TRC balances pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Vernon TO Tariff .
The interest calculation for payable TRC balances is shown in Lines 7-9 of Exhibit 2.
The TRBA balance on September 30, 2021 is shown in Line 13 of Exhibit 2.
The I (Interest) Component of Vernon’s TRBAA
As discussed above, the I component reflects interest on payable balances and on
payments for prior year TRCs. As provided in Section 5.2 of Vernon’s TO Tariff,
monthly interest carrying costs are calculated using the 18 C.F.R. § 35.19(a) interest
rates and calculation method. These interest rates are published by FERC and
reflect the prime rate values published in the Federal Reserve Bank’s “Selected
Interest Rates.”
The calculation of interest is reflected in Exhibit 2 and is included as an integral part
of the calculation of the TRBA balance on September 30, 2021. It is not reflected as
a separate line item in Exhibit 1.
The TRCF Component of Vernon’s TRBAA
The TRCF component of Vernon’s TRBAA stands for the forecast of TRCs for the
following calendar year, in this case 2022. These forecast TRCs reflect projected
wheeling revenues.
Wheeling revenues, which correspond to ISO Charge Type 384, are projected to be
a credit or negative $11,845.91, as shown in Exhibit 3.
These projections are based on the accruals for services provided during the twelve -
month period ending June 30, 2021, which are reflected in the ISO’s invoices to
Vernon through September 30, 2021. A summary of the monthly accruals for the
twelve months ending September 30, 2021 is shown in Exhibit 4.

Distribution of Non-Refundable Interconnection Amounts
Under Section 7.6 of Appendix DD of the ISO Tariff, “Application of Non-Refundable
Amounts,” “[t]he CAISO shall calculate and disburse available non -refundable
interconnection study deposits and interconnection financial security in conjunction
with the annual reassessment performed during th e year that the withdrawal period
ends.” As a Participating Transmission Owner, Vernon received a share of the non-
refundable interconnection financial security and study deposit amounts for projects
withdrawn through June 30, 2021. In particular, Vernon received $87.53 in the
month of November 2020 and $5,402.29 in the month of August 2021 for projects
withdrawn through June 30, 2021.
In order to distribute those funds to its ratepayers through its TRBAA mechanism in
accordance with Section 7.6 (c) of Appendix DD, Vernon includes Line 4 in the
spreadsheet it uses to calculate its TRBAA, Exhibit 2 to this report. That line is
entitled “Distribution of Non-Refundable Interconnection Amounts” and tracks funds
distributed by the ISO from month to month.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1.Approve the revised calculated TRBAA of a negative $35,959,
2.Approve replacing the existing TRBAA of negative $24,971 with the revised
TRBAA for 2022 of a negative $35,959.
3.Approve the attached revised Appendix I of Vernon’s TO Tariff reflecting the
TRBAA of negative $35,959.
4.Authorize outside counsel to submit Vernon’s TRBAA and supporting
documentation, such as this Report and the City Council Resolution
approving the revised TRBAA to FERC.
