GAS ADJUSTMENTS EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 1, 1997 I J CLEARWATER GAS SYSTEM In/eroffice Correspondence Sheet TO: FROM: Betty Deptula, City Manager ') Chuck Warrington, Gas System Managing Director rJtY COPIES: Kathy Rice, Deputy City Manager; Cyndie Goudeau, City Clerk; Margie Simmons, Finance Director; John Scott, Asst. Director Finance/UCS; Tom Madley, Senior Accountant/UCS; Karen Miles, Accounting Manager; CGS Management Team; SUBJECT: GAS ADJUSTMENTS EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 1, 1997 DATE: January 23, 1997 After experiencing the highest run-up in gas supply pricing since the supply shortages of the 1970s, we are seeing some relief in pricing forecasts this month for both natural and propane (LP) gas. This means that we can lower somewhat our Purchased Gas Adjustment (PGA) gas supply prices to our customers and still project that we can reach near equilibrium by April. Attachment #1 shows our current projections of the effect of lowering our natural gas PGA factors by 3(: per therm whi€:h would equate to a 5.7% PGA decrease for our firm natural gas customers. Attachment #2 shows our propane (LP) gas supply price inventory costs, and Attachment #1 shows the effect of lowering our LP PGA by 9(: per gallon to 76(: per gallon which is in line with our current average LP supply inventory cost. This would be a 10.6% PGA decrease for our LP customers. We do not propose to make any changes in our Energy Conservation Adjustment (ECA) clause rate at this time as our costs are running reasonably in line with our earlier projections. However, our Environmental Imposition Adjustment (EIA) clause has run a deficit for the past two (2) months; therefore, we recommend that we increase the EIA recovery factor by 0.5(: to 1.5(: per therm at this time to keep this balance in check. " - /'1 ,,:~/,/ /. ,~. (j I I Betty Deptula, City Manager Page 2 December 23, 1996 Attachment #1 shows that we need to raise our natural gas PGA factors by 14(: per therm which equates to a 36% PGA increase for our firm customers. This is a 13.4% overall price increase for our Residential Natural Gas customers. We cannot afford to delay this as Attachment #3 shows that as of November our Natural Gas PGA balancing account was ($190,842.64), and I would project that this will worsen by about ($100,000) in December due this unexpected run-up in natural gas supply prices. Attachment #2 shows our propane (LP) gas supply prices require us to increase our LP PGA to at least 82(: per gallon which is our last supply price. However, we are purchasing at least two (2) more bulk shipments of LP gas supply this week and the price continues to escalate. Furthermore, Attachment #3 shows that our LP PGA balancing account was ($1,909.74) as of November and will likely deteriorate somewhat more in December. We are therefore recommending a LP PGA of 85(: per gallon for January. This will mean that we have increased our LP PGA by 31 (: per gallon thusfar this fiscal year. The National media report indicated that LP supply pricing is up 35(: per gallon, so we are in line with this and slightly below what we understand that the other LP distributors are similarly raising their rates to compensate for the increase in LP gas supply costs. The only good news is that this escalation in LP supply pricing of 57% is actually very helpful from a competitive standpoint for natural gas. This is a 16.0% increase in our total Residential LP rates. We do not propose to make any changes in our Natural Gas PGA, our Energy Conservation Adjustment (ECA), nor our Environmental Imposition Adjustment (EIA) clause rates at this time as our costs are running reasonably in line with our earlier projections. Therefore, we recommend your approval of the following rates to become effective for billings rendered on and after January 1, 1997: Natural Gas Firm Standard Rate Schedule PGA ....... $0.530 per therm (up 14(:) Natural Gas Interruptible and Contract (Non-Standard) Rate Schedule PGA ............. $0.417 per therm (up 14(:) Propane (LP) Gas Rate Schedule PGA .................... $0.850 per gallon (up 22(:) = $0.929 per therm equivalent (up 24.0(:) Energy Conservation Adjustment (ECA) ............... $0.040 per therm (no change) = $0.037 per gallon of LP Environmental Imposition Adjustment (EIA) ......... $0.010 per therm (no change) = $0.009 per Gallon of LP Weather Normalization Adjustment (WNA) .......... Not Applicable at this time I I Betty Deptula, City Manager Page 3 December 23, 1996 Attachments #4 and #5 show the impact of these PGA rate increases on our overall natural gas and LP rates, respectively. It is our plan to use the above proposed adjustments for billings through March 31, 1997, 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. We will also continue to provide you with a summary of our adjustment status as a part of our monthly financial statements. Finally, I would like to relate one glimmer of good news to you in this rather dismal report. In October, Terry and I took a position with the MGAF group that we should lock in some gas supply pricing at what we believed to be low rates. We now know that we were very right on this. The rest of the MGAF group did not agree; therefore, MGAF as a group did not lock in on natural gas prices. We decided to buy a gas strip of 10,000 therms per day for two (2) years for Clearwater Gas System's base load at 19.95~ per thermo This represents about 20% of our summer volumes and 10 - 15% of our winter volumes. This deal has actually allowed us to maintain competitive rates for our largest contract customers and to help hold down the natural gas PGA rates somewhat for the balance of our customers. In retrospect, we only wish now that we had elected to lock in more, but we are in 10 - 15% better shape than the other MGAF participants due to our proactive purchase of this natural gas strip. Betty, I would appreciate your approval of these revised PGA 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. CSW /cw Attachments Approved: ~~ Bet6-0e~a.
