Amarillo Road Lubbock, Texas Sub -Section No "ect on r ne Sub- Secnon Tnle E`JrRA1 RULES DESCRiR'iON OF THE CCCPERATIVE'S OPERATIONS The Cooperative Is a non-profit electric cooperative corporation organized under the Texas Electric Cooperative Corporation Act, and was incorporated November 26. 1937. The Cooperative's offices and warehouse are located at 110 North Amarillo Road in Lubbock, Texas. All business and operational activities are conducted, or supervised from this location. The Cooperatives' business affairs are managed under the direction of and policies set by a Board of Directors con- sisting of eight member -consumers elected by the membership of the Cooperative at membership meetings held annual- ly, in accordance with the Bylaws. The Cooperative's operations are primarily In rural areas of the South Plains of Texas. The greater portion of its facilities and consumers are located within a 30 -mile radius of Lubbock, Texas. Types of load being served are varied, ranging from rural residential to large industrial. However, the dominant load Influence Is agricultural and agribusiness. The load density of the Cooperative's service area Is relatively high In comparison with typical rural areas. There is Intensive irrigation development throughout the service area plus non-agri-related residential and commercial development influenced by proximity to the City of Lubbock. Construction of electric plant facilities has been principally financed over the years by long-term loans from the Rural Electrification Administration (REA) and in more recent years, by supplemental long-term loans from the National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation (CFC). Additionally, retained margins from operations assigned to the Capital Account of members ("Capital Credits") has provided a substantial portion of the investment capital for electric plant investment. The Cooperative provides service to slightly over 11,472 members (customers) through 22,746 separately metered points of delivery, served by 3,970 miles of overhead and underground distribution line, and 102 miles of 69 KV transmission tine. The total power requirements are supplied at wholesale from Southwestern Pubilc Service Company of Amarillo, Texas. Ali substations of the Cooperative have tie -line interconnection facilities to other substations. but are operated open except for emergency operations. The standard distribution voltage is 7200/12470 volt wye. The present total substation capacity is 156.25 MVA at 23 substations. The Cooperative has one interchange at 115/69 KV at 30/40/50 MVA. The serving of oil field and irrigation development throughout the Cooperative's service area has brought three- phase service reasonably available to all areas and has resulted in improved service to all consumers. The terrain of the service area is typical of the South Plains with rock seldom being encountered to the construc- tion of facilities. The exception of terrain Is found In the Yeilowhouse Canyon along tre Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River and off the Caprock In rolling plains. Service is primarily provided by the Cooperative's personnel with construction contractors being used to augment the Cooperative's capabilities during periods of abnormal demand for service. The Cooperattve has an authorized compliment of 86 employees. Operational and construction capabilities include five service crews, three construction crews, two underground crews, one substation and one apparatus crew, one mobile meter test unit and an apparatus shop and meter labora- tory. Engineering planning is directed by a registered professional engineer. The Cooperative has on premise a Digital 11/44 computer system and substantially all records and reports are so processed and maintained. The current long-range system plan was prepared in 1986; there will be updating and revisions at scheduled Inter- vals. Power requirements studies and financial forecasts are prepared and/or updated at regular intervals and are utilized in the financial and operational management of the Cooperative. Although the Cooperative performs the majority of its own work, consultants are utilized for assistance in preparation of long-range system plans, finan- cial forecasts and other overview type professional service as becomes necessary for direction and au Cit of the Cooperative's operations. Technical assistance is readily available from specialists cf the Rural Electrification Administration and the National Rural Utilities CooperatLve Finance Corporation. Under a statewide disaster plan coordinated by Texas Eiec"ttrlc Cooperatives, Inc. of Austin, Texas, construction capabilities are available from other cooperatives for repairs of extreme damage to the electric system caused by ice storms, tornados, hurricanes and other major disasters.

Application for Service - New Consumers The following rules will be applied upon receiving applications for service from persons not presently a consumer receiving service from the Cooperative: 1. Establishment of Credit for Permanent Residential Applicants a. The Cooperative will require a residential applicant for service to satisfactorily establish credit, but such establishment of credit shall not relieve the consumer from complying with rules for prompt payment of bills. Credit history shall be applied for a reasonable period of time to a spouse or former spouse who shared the service. Credit history maintained by one must be applied equally to the other without modification and without additional qualifications not required of the other. Subject to these rules, a residential applicant shall not be required to pay a deposit: 1. If the residential applicant has been a consumer of any elprtric utility within the last two years and is not delinquent in payment of any such utility service account and during the last twelve (12) consecutive months of service did not have more than one occasion in which a bill for such utility service was paid after becoming delinquent and never had service disconnected for nonpayment; or 2. If the residential applicant furnishes in writing a satisfactory guarantee to secure payment of bills for the service required; or 3. If the residential applicant demonstrates a satisfactory credit rating by appropriate means including, but not limited to, the production of generally acceptable credit cards, letters of credit reference, the names of credit references which may be quickly and inexpensively contacted by the Cooperative, or ownership of substantial equity. 2. Reestablishment of Credit Every applicant who previously has been a consumer of the Cooperative and whose service has been discontinued for nonpayment of bills shall be required before service is rendered to pay all amounts due the Cooperative or execute a deferred payment agreement, if offered, and reestablish credit as .Provided in subparagraph la above. 3. Commercial and Industrial Service In the case of commercial, or industrial service, if the credit of an applicant for service has not been established satisfactorily to the Cooperative, the applicant will be required to make a deposit under the same requirements as for permanent residential applicants for service. The Cooperative may require an individual applicant to guarantee payment for a corporation. 4. Amount of Deposit and Interest for Permanent Residential, General Service, Commercial and Industrial Service and Exemption from Deposit: a. The required deposit shall not exceed an amount equivalent to one-sixth (1/6th) of the annual billings as estimated by the applicant after discussion of usage history with the Cooperative's personnel. If actual billings of a commercial customer are at least twice the amount of the estimated billings, and a suspension notice has been issued on a bill within the previous 12 -month period, a new deposit may be required to be made within 15 days after issuance of written notice of termination and requested additional deposit. If actual billings of a residential customer are at least twice the amount of the estimated billings after two periods, and a suspension notice has been issued on a bill within the previous 12 -month period, a new deposit may be required to be made within 15 days after issuance of written notice of termination and requested additional deposit. In lieu'of additional deposit, the customer may elect to pay the current bill by the due date of the bill, provided the customer has not exercised this option in the previous 12 -months. b. All applicants for permanent residential service who are sixty-five (65) years of age or older will be considered as having established credit if su, applicant does not have an outstanding account balance with the Cooperative or another electric utily which accrued within the last two years. No cash deposit shall be required of such applicant under these conditions. c. On deposits required, the Cooperative shall pay a mininum interest thereon at the rate and in the manner prescribed by the Public Utility Carmission of Texas. The rate, through December 31, 1985, was six percent (68) as set by statute; thereafter, it will be set by the commission each Decenber for the following calendar year. For 1986, the rate is 7.29 percent. 1. Payment of the interest shall be annually if requested by the consurier, or at the tine the deposit is returned or credited to the consuner's account. 2. The deposit shall cease to draw interest on the date it is returned or credited to the consurer's account. ---•-� _---_ .. __.. .. ..........�....� ,. - ���wr e m rear um r r a, C F" T.•�,y Commission Use Only Submitted 8y Date ..// Docket No. Signature C Title /yt^� Effective Date L , L ,;�' .� C C T " TARIFF: Electric Service APPUCATION: All Territ, Effective Date 5 SOUTH PLAINS ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC.

Rendering and Form of Bills Bills for electric service shall be rendered monthly unless service is rendered for a period less than a month. Bills shall be rendered as promptly as possible following the reading of meters. An invoice -type bill will be used and rendered to each consumer detailing thereon individual amounts of electric use and charges for service to all separately metered points of delivery to the consumer, plus unmetered points of delivery as provided for under the rate schedules, and combining for all services to a total amount due the Cooperative. In event a partial payment is made, it will be credited to the total amount due and not to each separate account. Any amount left owing will be deemed to be due against all separate accounts. When reference is made in the Cooperative's Tariff to "bill" or "invoice," they will have the same meaning. B. Information on Bill The consumer's invoice will show at least all information as required by the Commission. C. Estimated Meter Readings As a standard practice, the Cooperative will provide adequate personnel and transportation equipment to read all meters monthly. Recognizing that there may be occasions when some meters, principally for irrigation service, cannot be read because of inclement weather and adverse rural road and accessway conditions, readings may be estimated for billing purposes. In such event, special effort will be given to read each such meter in the following cycle in regular order, or by special reading order. In no event will readings be estimated for any given meter more than three (3) consecutive months. When estimated readings are used for billing purposes, the bill will be plainly marked to show that the meter reading was estimated. D. Disputed Bills In the event of a dispute between the consumer and the Cooperative regarding any bill, the Cooperative shall forthwith make such investigation as shall be required by the particular case and report the results thereof to the consumer, and in the event the dispute is not resolved, shall inform the consumer of the complaint procedures of the Commission. E. Reconnect and Collection Fees It is intended that written notice to the consumer of delinquent bills and returned invalid checks giving date after which service will be disconnected for nonpayment, constitute all appropriate and necessary notification needed to be given by the Cooperative. It is further intended that no personal contact by way of a collection call or telephone solicitation will be required prerequisite to disconnection of service for nonpayment. If, however, the consumer or his representative is found at the premises of the service, or services, to be dis- connected when the Cooperative's representative arrives to disconnect service, and if the consumer or his representative will pay the amount delinquent plus a $15 service charge, plus the amount of deposit as required under Section 30.04-A of this tariff, then service will be left connected. An oral deferred payment agreement as provided for under Section 30.01-D-1 of this tariff may be extended for the required deposit but not beyond seven (7) days. Extensions beyond seven (7) days will not be given except by written agreement between the Cooperative and the consumer. If service is disconnected for nonpayment, a charge of twenty-five dollars ($25) per meter disconnected plus the delinquent amount plus a deposit as may be required under Section 30.04-A of this tariff will be collected before service is reconnected during regular hours. Reconnection of service after normal business hours shall require the above said delinquent amounts and deposit plus a fee of $26, per meter for reconnection. Payment of the deposit, if required, may be deferred when circumstances will justify by the consumer executing a written deferred payment agreement as provided for under Section 30.01-0-2 of this tariff. F. Fraudulent Use of Electric Service 1. No person, except an employee of the Cooperative, shall remove, alter, or make any connection to the Cooperative's meter or service equipment. No meter seal may be broken by anyone other than a Cooperative employee, provided, however, the Cooperative may give prior consent to an approved electrician employed by a member to remove seal when deemed necessary ,%y the Cooperative. 2. In cases of tampering with the Cooperative's meter or equipment or bypassing the same or interfering r with the proper working thereof, or other instances of diversion, such as physically disorienting the meter, objects attached to the meter to divert service or to bypass, insertion of objects into the meter, and other electrical and mechanical means of tampering with, bypassing, or diverting electrical service, service shall be immediately disconnected. In instances where incorrect meter readi:xts are reported with intent to defraud, the service shall be immediately disconnected after proper notice. iK Revision Symbols Chan e C - Discontinued (D) - Increase (1 )- New N - Reduction R - Chan a in Text 0IT Commission Use Only Submitted �J4 By Dafe"` f Docket No. Effective Dole Signature - Title i SOUTH PLAINS ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC.

Standards o' Design and Construction As standard practice, the Cooperative will be guided by the provisions of the American National Standards Insti- tute, Inc., the National Electrical Safety Code, standards recommended by the Rural Electrification Administration (REA), State and Federal regulations, and such other codes and standards as are generally accepted by the in- dustry, except as modified by the Commission or the municipal regulations within their jurisdiction. The Cooperative shall construct, install, operate and maintain its plant, structures, equipment, and lines in accordance with these standards, and in such manner to best accommodate the public and to prevent interference with service furnished by other public utilities in so far as practical. B. Location 1. Distribution Lines a. Rural Areas - In rural areas, electric distribution lines will be located, in so far as practicable, adjacent to public roads but on private property to avoid damage from road maintenance equipment and moving vehicles. Public road right-of-way will be used oily in exceptional cases and in the event that private right-of-way cannot be secured without payment to the owner or, without condemnation. Service lines to serve adjacent private property will be located wherever practicable, along turn rows and private drives toward minimal interference of cultivation practices and other land use. Location of lines on private property will be subject to agreement by the owner. b. Subdivisions- In extending service to subdivisions and platted areas having streets, alleys, and accessways designated for utility use, electric facilities, except service facilities, may be located therein. 2. Transmission Lines Recognizing that there is a significant difference in the service value of a transmission line to adjacent property from that of a distribution facility, the location of transmission lines will be determined by total cost including right-of-way cost, accessability, and required electrical characteristics. The allowable cost of procurement of private right-of-way will be as determined by the Board of Directors except when determined otherwise under condemnation proceedings. C. Rural Electrification Administration (REA) Approval The construction of facilities for service to certain size and types of load are subject to REA approval. When such approval is required, it shall also become a condition of service. D. Response to Request for Service The Cooperative shall serve each qualified applicant for service within its certificated area as rapidly as is practical. The Cooperative should fill applications for new electric service not involving line extensions or new facilities within seven (7) working days, and will make every reasonable effort to do so. Those appli- cations for residential service requiring line extensions will be filled as quickly as passible, and shall be filled within 90 days unless availability of materials causes uravoidable delays. In the event that resi- dential service is delayed in excess of 90 days after an applicant has met credit requirements and made satisfactory arrangements for payment of any required construction charges, the Cooperative shall make a report to the Commission listing the name, location and cause for delay. E. Construction Guidelines 1. It is the intent of the Cooperative that all primary distribution lines generally be overhead pole line construction. Underground construction, at Cooperative expense, will be done when conflicting environment, zoning, laws and regulations, reliability or Cooperative best interest, or cost, require, or favor, such construction. Should the consumer or landowner desire underground construction and pays the difference in cost between overhead line and underground line construction, and underground construction is compatible with the, electric system, the Cooperative will build the primary line underground. 2. It is the intent of the Cooperative that all sAndary service electric lines generally be underground construction to permanent facilities. However, it is recognized that such factors as scheduling of construction, conflicting environment, excessive cost differential, Cooperative's inability to maintain, operate and install all sizes of underground cables, consumer not desiring underground service, service reliability and capacity and distance requirements will preclude the underground installati)n and require overhead construction. Should underground construction be pnssib'e but cost differential cn overhead construction be excessive, the consumer may pay the differential and the Cooperative will construct the service underground. # Re,s,on Symbols Change (C) - Discontintied (D) - increase(I)-New N - Reduction R - Change in Text Onl T Use Only FESCommission c� Submitted By Date Docket No. c _ _ Effective Dote Signature Title SOUTH PLAINS ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE, INC.

Power Service - For service rendered primarily for power purposes, the voltage variation shall be t ten percent (10%) of the standard given in these rules. 3. Greater Variations Permitted - A greater variation of voltage than above specified may be allowed in the case of emergency service, or where provided for in contract, or in a limited or extended area where consumers are widely scattered and the business does not justify the above voltage regulations. In sti-h cases, the best voltage regulations shall be provided that is practicable under the circumstances. Variations in v;ltage in excess of those. specified caused by action of the elements, operation of power apparatus on consumers p_:mises which necessarily require large starting currents, and infrequent and unavoidable fluctuations of short duratioi, due to station or system operation shall not be considered violations of this rule. C. Frequency Variation The Cooperative purchases all of its power at wholesale from Southwestern Publi:: Service Carpany. Although' the Coopera- tive has no control over the frequency rate, it is assumed that the wholesale power supplier wall comply with the rules cf the Commission as to the standard frequency of 60 (sixty) cycles per second maintained at aii times within one-tenth (0.1) cycle per second above and below the standard, except that infrequent and unavoidable fluctuations may occur. D. Voltmeters and Voltage Surveys 1.

Reccrd of Meter Test - All meter tests shall be promptly referenced to the meter record provided for, herein. The record of each test made on consumer's premises, in the Cooperative's laboratory, or on request of the consumer, shall show the identifying number and constants of the meter, the standard meter and other measuring devices used, the date and kind of test made, by whom made, the error (or percentage of accuracy) at each lcad.tested, and sufficient data to permit verification of all calculations. Meter Readings i. Meter Unit Indication - In general, each meter shall indicate correctly the kilowatt-hours or other units of service for which charge is made to the consumer. 2. Reading of Meters - The Cooperative has adopted a general practice of reading each meter at monthly intervals, and as nearly as possible on the corresponding date of each meter -reading period, but may be read at other than monthly intervals if the circumstances warrant. D. Xeter Tests on Request of Consumer he Cooperative shall, upon the request of a consumer, and, if he so desires, in h*s presence or in that of his authorized representative, make without charge a test of the accuracy of the consumer's met,.r. the test shall be made during the Cooperative's normal working hours at a time convenient to the consumer if he desires t-, observe the test. The test shall be made preferably on the consumer's premises, but may, at the Cooperative's discretion, be made at the Cooperative's test laboratory. If the meter has been tested by the Cooperative, or by an authorized agency at the consumer's request, and within a period of four years the consumer requests a new test, the Cooperative shall make the test, but if the meter is found to be within the accuracy standards established by the American National Standards Institute, Incorporated, the Cooperative may charge the consumer a fee which reflects the cost to test the meter, but this ctarge shall in no event be more than fifteen dollars ($15.00) for a residential consumer.. Following the completion of any requested test, the Cooperative shall promptly advise the consumer of the date of removal of the meter, the date of the test, the result of the test, and who made the test. E. Bill Adjustment Due to Meter Error if any meter is found to be outside of the accuracy standards established by the American National Standards Institute, Inc. ;;o-,er correction shall be made of previous readings for the period of six (b) months immediately preceding the removal of i such meter from service for testing or from the time the meter was n service since last tested, but not exceeding six months, as the meter shall have been shown to be in error by such test, and adjusted bills shall be rerdered. No refund will be made by the Cooperative except to the consumer last served by the meter prior to testing. If a meter is found not to register for any period, unless by-passed or tampered with, the Cooperative shall make a charge for units used, but not metered, for a period notto exceed three (3) months based on amounts used under similar conditions during the period pre- ceding or subsequent thereto, or during corresponding periods in previous years.

Inside Seal Immediately after test as required under this Tariff, a compression type seal will be used connecting the meter cover to the meter frame to insure the integrity of the test, and to provide visible indication as to the possibility of meter tampering. For identification purposes this device is referred to as the "inside seal." A separately numbered sealing tool will be issued to each technician authorized to perform meter tests. The sealing tool will be of such design that the tool number will emboss on one side and "SP" on the opposite side of the seal. Before a meter is installed, or replaced in service, it will be ascertained that a valid inside seal is in place. 2. Outside Seal When any meter is installed in the meter loop, a seal or locking device will be installed in such a manner as to prevent removal of the meter, or the meter cover, without either breaking or unlocking the sealing device. For identification purposes this device is referred to as the "outside seal" and may be in the form of (a) prenumbered stirrup type seal that destructs upon removal; (b) a padlock; or (c) a patented tamper-resistant sealing mechanism. The later named device will be used on installations where there has been demonstrated need to prevent unauthorized entry into the metering installation, or meter removal_, or tampering. B. Broken, Missing, and Altered Seals If the outside seal is found to be missing, broken or having appearance that it has been removed and reinstalled, the meter will be removed and the complete installation inspected for signs of irregularitiv. If no irregularity is detected, the consumer will be given written notification of the need for the outside seal to remain in place to insure the integrity of the metering installation and to give warning of the jangers of the meter being removed by an unauthorized person. Should the outside seal on a consumer's metering installation be found to be missing, broken, or otherwise altered, and should no metering installation irregularity be other- wise detected, a tamper-resistant type sealing device may be installed and the consumer billed for the cost of inspection and the cost of the device. If it is established that the metering installation has been tampered with for the purpose of fraudulent use of electric service, and that such act, or acts, have occurred during the period of service of the present consumer, a tamper-resistant sealing device may be installed. Further, should such irregularities include a broken inside seal or other evidence that the meter has been tampered with, it shall be tested tefore being replaced into service. In both events the cost of inspection, repairs, replacement of damaged parts, the sealing device and meter test (if performed), will be billed to the consumer. C. Loss of Revenue Because of Meter Tampering Charges for loss of revenue because of meter tampering will be mine in accordance with Section 30.05 of this Tariff.

When new connects are within the corporate limits of municipalities having electrical ordinances governing wiring installations, inspection and en- forcement will be left to the municipality. In other cases, the Cooperative will provide a competent wiring inspector to determine compliance with these requirements. A $10 fee may be assessed.for the inspection made by the Cooperative inspector. B. Wiring for Major Appliances Recognizing that provisions have not been included in most consumer systems for service to electric ranges, clothes dryers and water heaters and that appliance dealers are unable to give realistic estimates of cost for needed wiring additions when the consumer considers purchase of such equipment; Further recognizing that in event electrical contractors are employed by the consumer to make the necessary additions for the aforementioned major appliances, work of a service crew of the Cooperative must be coordinated therewith to ascertain that the Cooperative's transformer and service are adequate to serve the added load, and to inspect the wiring additions in and from the meter loop; Toward coordinating necessary activities of the consumer, appliance dealer and the Cooperative and to efficiently uti- lize the transportation and time of service personnel of the Cooperative for mutual benefit, wiring additions to the consumer's system may be made by the Cooperative under the following guidelines, provided such work is not within a municipality having an ordinance that forbids such assistance by the Cooperative. 1. Overcurrent Protection - shall be provided by the installation of an approved surface type outdoor device at the service entrance. Consideration will be given in providing an enclosure of adequate size to accommodate additional circuits for other major appliance additions. The addition of overcurrent protection in an existing flush -type fuse panel or the use of spare devices existing in such panel is discouraged in that the drilling of walls and pulling of wire within walls invited greater risk of damage to the premises. 2. Branch circuits - shall in so far as practical be of the surface type and the drilling of walls and fishing of wires therein shall be avoided unless there is reasonable evidence that such work can be accomplished without damage to the premises 3. Receptacles of the surface type will be strongly favored toward ease of installation and toward lessening the probability of damage to the premises. 4. Consumer owned outside conductor from a meter pole installation to the service entrance may be changed out to a larger size to adequately accommodate the added load. 5. For the work within the scope of this directive, no charge will be made to the consumer for labor, transportation and overhead. Charges to the consumer will be made at average predetermined unit costs based on historic average costs for such materials computed not less than annually. 6. When consumers request wiring additions within the scope of this directive, unit costs will be quoted in advance of the work being accomplished toward minimumizing misunderstandings that may arise. 7. Information as to this service being offered by the Cooperative and charges being made therefor, will be disseminated to all known area dealers of the major appliances. S. Shouid the consumer's requirements for wiring additions to serve majo, appliances listed herein invo;ve complicity of installation beyond the scope of this directive, and should his demands require undue risk of damage to his premises, such as damage to ceiling and walls, -channeling of wires, drilling and channeling on masorary, etc., then such consumer should be requested to secure the services of a qualified electrical contractor. C. Services on Outside Wiring System It is recognized that many outages result from inadequate Slid poorly maintained consumer systems beyond the point of delivery. It is further recognized that a major cause of this problem is lack of qualified electricians willing to perform repair services throughout the Cooperative's service area. Since the foregoing results in needless, outage time to the consumer and excessive service calls by the Cocperative, the following services on the consumer's system may be performed by the Cooperative, provided such wcrk is not within a municipality having ordinances forbidding such assistance by the Cooperative.

The Cooperative will enter into an agreement with the Board of Trustees of each participating school before the equipment is installed. Items to be agreed upon are number of free-standlnq electric ranges that will be supplied by the Cooperative. To be eligible to participate in this program, a school must install any additional wiring necessary to accomodate the ranges.. The school must agree to take reasonable care of and maintain all ranges placed In the school. 9. Load Factor Improvement The Cooperative's need for annual load factor improvement is unique because of the extreme demand of irrigation load during the summer growing season which also includes air conditioning load. To improve this condition, the Cooperative may offer incentives to facilitate load management activities. Installation of energy-efficient motors or air conditioning units and circulating fans, and other programs that would be suitable in Improvinq said load factor. Toward more effective utlItzatlon of system capacity by encouragement of load of winter characteristics and load of high annual load factor pattern of electric use, the Cooperative may offer certain types of incentive programs for insulation of residences. Instal latlon and servicing of electric water heaters, installatlon and servicing of electric heat, and other programs that would be suitable in Improving said load factor. All such proqrams wit be contingent upon the conservative of energy, controlling the quality of installation, and the safety and efficiency of operation. 0 Re�'s'cn S mbois Cnan e(C)-Discontinued(D)- Increase(I)-New(N)- Reduction R - Change in .Teat 0lT Commiss,on Use Only Submitted By Dote ,.l Docket No. Effective.

Joint use of poles will not generally be under- taken with other electric utilities except on a single pole, or structure where the two systems cross and the joint pole or structure is required to maintain fixed separations of the conductors of the two systems. Joint use may be undertaken with communication and cable television companies under the following conditions: (a) Pole lines already exist on both sides of a roadway or alley and construction of the telephone line on separate poles will necessitate a third pole line. (b) At crossings with telephone lines where a joint pole is desirable to maintain fixed separations between wires. (c) On service drops where telephone wires will not materially interfere with the Cooperative's system and where greater safety will be offered to both systems. (d) Along driveways where joint use will eliminate poles in cultivated lands. Satisfactory joint use agreements will be executed covering all cases of joint use. The agreement shall protect the Cooperative from liability because of such joint use, and will provide for proper compensation for making necessary re- arrangements of the Cooperative's system, and for equitable annual rental. B. Clearance for Nouse and Equipment Moving When a house, structure, or equipment is to be moved upon, across, or over roadways, or along a route over which electric wires are strung, advance notice must be made to the Cooperative of the dimensions of the object, the time to be moved and the precise route over which to be moved. Payment shall be made to the Cooperative for the cost of providing clearance of wires. In no case shall anyone other than authorized employees of the Cooperative remove, cut, raise, or handle any wires in connection with the moving and providing of clearance. Charges will be collected in advance. C. Access The Cooperative requires access to all of its lines, facilities and equipment during all reasonable times and at all times in cases of emergencies. D. Curtailment of Loading 1. Ilr�riFatio�n - Because of the extreme seasonal characteristics of irrigation, new connections will depend upon a number OT factors. Some of these are wholesale power, line loading, substation loading, and construction materials. Limita- tions may be placed on the availability of service to new irrigation connections at any time and at various places on the Cooperative's system. 2. Other - The availability of service to other new connections, other than single phase service to the residential T crass herein defined, may be limited from time to time and at various locations when the serving of such new load might in any way impair the service to existing consumers because of wholesale power availability, line loading, or substation loading. E. Respect of Others The Cooperative will guard against damaging the property of others in the operations of the system. Employees shall use, care to not abuse the privilege of the Cooperative of operating its system on the property of others. Care shall be taken to not establish hazards nor to damage crops or premises beyond that necessary to properly construct, maintain, and operate the system. Particular care will be shown in the following activities: 1. Trimming of trees. 2. Backfilling of abandoned holes. 3. Overhead and underground facilities of other utilitie9,,such as gas, water, sewer, telephone, electric and irrigation systems, whether utility company or consumer awned. 4. Removal or cutting off abandoned anchor rods. 5. Repair of damaged fences, closing of gates, etc. 5. Operation of vehicles. 7.

The exact value of the rate to be paid to the Producer will be determined by the actual net reduction in the Cooperative's wholesale energy costs resulting from the metered energy output of the Producer's qualifying facility. The total payment by the Cooperative to the Producer for capacity in any billing period shall not exceed the total amount of the Cooperative's wholesale energy costs that are determined to have been avoided by the Cooperative as a result of the energy output of the Producer's qualifying facility. AVOIDED COST INFORMATION Because the rates for purchase of firm capacity and energy from a Producer's qualifying facility are to be based on actual wholesale billing analyses which may cause -the effective purchase rate to vary somewhat from month to month, the Cooperative will, at a Producer's request, provide example calculations of the avoidable wholesale power costs for historical billing periods. eK Revision 5 moots Chan e C - Discontrnued(0) -.Increase (1)- New N - Reduction (R)_ Chance in Text 0my T Commission use Only Submitted By J.
