SUBJECT: GAS ADJUSTMENTS EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1998
DATE: December 30, 1997
We need to make several changes to our gas adjustment clause rates at this time to bring
them in line with current levels of expenditures and forecasts. We are proposing these
changes in such a manner as to have minimal to no overall impact to the bottom line
therm /gallon rates from last month.
First, our Weather Normalization Adjustment (WNA) will expire this month, thereby lowering
our rates by 50 per therm. The bad news is that this clause has not yet collected the full
amount of shortfall from last winter. You will note from Attachment #1 that the shortfall is
$ 142,781.45 thru November, and we would project that this will end the year approximately
$90,000 short of our authorized recovery level. Our Code of Ordinances provides that "Any
over or under recovery ... (of WNA) ... may be credited or debited to the PGA (Purchased
Gas Adjustment) at the discretion of the City Manager upon discontinuance of the
charge /credit from the previous winter season." We would at this time formally request that
whatever the final under - recovery is as of the end of December 1997 be charged to the
natural and propane gas PGAs in accordance with the original approved levels of WNA
recovery for each fuel type.
The impact of the above will cause upward pressure on the PGA clauses. Additionally, you
will note from Attachment #1 that we remain significantly behind on our recovery of Natural
Gas PGA. Therefore, we are proposing to raise Natural Gas PGA by 3.50 per therm for the
firm non - contract rates only. We are not proposing to raise the interruptible or contract rates
similarly at this time as the WNA is not applied to these rates, there is significant competitive
rate pressure on these classes of customer, and we have been successful in buying strips of
gas at lower-rates in sufficient quantities to serve these customer classes. We are not
proposing to increase the Propane (LP) Gas PGA at this time as we are over - recovered on LP
PGA by $9,464.99 (see Attachment #1) and Attachment #3 shows that our latest LP
Weighted Average Cost of Gas (WACOG) is holding at less than our current LP PGA level.

We are proposing to raise our Energy Conservation Adjustment (ECA) at this time by 10 per
therm to 40 per therm. Even though Attachment #1 shows that we are currently
$33,829.67 over - recovered on ECA, we have significant commitments outstanding for the
apartments at Park Place and Wentworth that necessitate that we increase our collections at
this time in order to be able to meet our future commitments. Additionally, we are proposing
to raise our Environmental Imposition Adjustment (EIA) at this time by 0.50 per therm to
1.50 per therm. This is in order to speed our recovery of our existing $56,938.90 deficit in
our EIA account (see Attachment #1).
Therefore, we are recommending your approval of the following rates to become effective for
billings rendered on and after January 1, 1998:
Natural Gas Firm Standard Rate Schedule PGA ....... $0.450 per therm (up 3.50)
Natural Gas Interruptible and Contract
(Non - Standard) Rate Schedule PGA ............. $0.295 per therm (no change)
Propane (LP) Gas Rate Schedule PGA .................... $0.550 per gallon (no change)
_ $0.601 per therm equivalent
(no change)
Energy Conservation Adjustment (ECA) ............... $0.040 per therm (up 10)
_ $0.037 per gallon of LP
(up 10)
Environmental Imposition Adjustment (EIA) ......... $0.015 per therm (up 0.50)
_ $0.014 per gallon of LP
(up 0.50)
Weather Normalization Adjustment (WNA) .......... $0.000 per therm (down 50)
_ $0.000 per gallon of LP
(down 4.60)
The net effect of all of these changes on our residential and firm commercial customers is no
change in bottom line rates for natural gas and an overall decrease in LP rates of 3.10 per
gallon. We are very hopeful that our winter gas purchasing will allow us to reduce the PGA
rates somewhat by our next major semi - annual assessment in April.
Attachment #1 shows the CGS Summary of Rate Adjustment Clause Collections, which are
currently in deficit by a total of $319,182.27. This negatively impacts our bottom line
financials. Attachment #2 shows Terry Neenan's current Natural Gas Purchased Gas Supply
Cost Projections. Attachment #3 shows our FY 97/98 fiscal year -to -date history of Propane
(LP) Gas supply costs. Finally, Attachments #4 and #5 show the impact of these adjustment
clause changes on our overall Natural and LP Gas rates, respectively.

It is our plan to use the above - proposed adjustments for billings through March 31, 1998,
unless there is a significant change in our forecasts or we project an over /under recovery in
excess of the thresholds as prescribed in our rate ordinance. We will continue to track these
balances monthly, make monthly projections of these factors based on market conditions,
and let you know if any of these get significantly out of balance.
Mike, I would appreciate your approval of these revised adjustment rates so that we can get
this information to UCS in order to make the appropriate adjustments in the billing formulas in
time for the January 1 st billings. If you have any questions on this, please call me.
