TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Joseph F. Hsu, Director of Utilities ----) .
VIA: Rick Cole, City Manager(LL'
DATE: October 13, 1998
SUBJECT: Azusa's Scheduling Coordinator Application—Execution of Agreements
BACKGROUND:
The electricity industry in California became deregulated as of April 1 of this year. As
part of the deregulation process, two independent entities have been created to manage
the deregulation process, namely the Independent System Operator(ISO) and the Power
Exchange (PX).
The ISO performs the scheduling of electric power/transmission within California and
maintains the reliability of California electric system, and the PX establishes a market for
electricity trading. In order to conduct businesses with the ISO and the PX, entities are
required to be certified both technically and financially by the ISO and the PX. In
Azusa's case, interactions with the ISO is unavoidable and mandatory since Azusa
resides within the ISO's control area, whereas interaction with the PX is voluntary since
Azusa may elect not to conduct businesses directly with the PX.
Since April 1 until now, Southern California Edison Company(SCE) has served as
Azusa's conduit to interact with both the ISO and the PX. SCE agreed to serve this role
for a limited period of time, namely six months, as part of the 1998 Azusa-Edison
Settlement Agreement that the City entered into in late 1997. During the past four and a
half months, staff has familiarized with the operational requirements to interact with the
ISO through SCE, and feels confident that now is the appropriate time for the City to
seek an official status with the ISO to interface with the ISO directly.
The City applied for the Scheduling Coordinator status in September; the ISO has
accepted City's application, subject to execution of the necessary agreements and proper
technical certification. The attached Scheduling Coordinator Agreement and the Meter
Service Agreement For Scheduling Coordinators are part of a series of agreements the
City will need to execute to complete the certification process.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The attached agreements will certify that the City will abide by the ISO Tariffs and Rules
and Protocols, and reimburse ISO for all ISO services. Staff's current estimate of the ISO
charges can be up to $400,000 per year, subject to refinements with the actual operations.
Such costs cannot be avoided by the City whether the City is a Scheduling Coordinator or
not; since the City resides within the ISO control area. Staff has included such costs in
the FY 98/99 Light Fund budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend the City Council authorize the Mayor to execute the attached
agreements, and further authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute additional
agreements if needed to ensure timely certification by the ISO.

CALIFORNIA ISO METER SERVICE AGREEMENT
APPENDIX A
ISO UNDERTAKING
4� ".air p"kFY=:
CALIfoRNIA ISO
The ISO Metering Protocol does not yet include the Appendices which will detail the metering
standards and technical standards for the certification and identification of revenue quality
meters.
The Appendices will set forth the relevant technical standards and requirements, which will be
drawn from the following existing documents:
(a) the Meter standards-Specifications MTRI-96, Engineering Specification for Poly-
Phase Solid State Electricity Meters for use on the ISO Grid, dated January 8,
1997; and
(b) the ISO Field Test/Audit and Certification Specifications, dated September 24,
1997
(collectively known as the "Technical Specifications").
The Technical Specifications were prepared by the Meter Sub-Team and have been available
to stakeholders for a substantial period of time. Copies of the Technical Specifications are
published on the ISO Home Page and may be obtained from the ISO by contacting the Meter
and Data Acquisition Manager, Client Service Department.
In the present form, however, the Technical Specifications do not employ the language and
definitions used in the ISO Tariff or the Metering Protocol. Accordingly, the ISO is currently
redrafting the Technical Specifications, using language that conforms with that contained in the
ISO Tariff and the Metering Protocol. When this redrafting is completed, the revised versions of
the Technical Specifications will then become the Appendices to the ISO Metering Protocol.
The ISO will publish drafts of the Appendices as soon as they are available. Stakeholders will
then be given an opportunity to comment on those draft Appendices.
However, before publication and finalization of the Appendices, the ISO wishes to finalize
execution of this Meter Service Agreement.
Therefore, the ISO undertakes to the party to this Meter Service Agreement that the
Appendices will, in substance and scope, contain the same technical standards and
requirements as contained in the Technical Specifications. The ISO will also ensure that all
interested parties are given sufficient opportunity to comment on the draft Appendices to
identify any inconsistencies with the Technical Specifications before they are finalized and
incorporated as attachments to the Metering Protocol.
The ISO will review comments it receives on the draft Appendices in consultation with the Meter
Sub-Team that prepared the Technical Specifications.
