Options for Addressing Regulation 1146
• Fuel Switching
– Regulation 1146 does not cover units that burn #4 fuel oil
– Due to lower viscosity, switch may require pump and burner
replacement or retrofit
– Greater volatility of #4 fuel oil may also require additional fire
protection measures
– $2.82/MMBtu price increase for #4 fuel oil (based on current New
York Harbor prices)
• SCR on back-end
– Will reduce NOx below specified limits
– Capital Cost (~$100/kW)
– O&M Cost (~2.5 mill/kWh)
• SNCR
– Will achieve NOx reduction, but less effective than SCR
– Capital Cost (~$20/kW)
– Similar O&M Costs to SCR

Generation and Asset Management
Net generation for the month of December credited by PJM was 5,869 MWh (stations ran out of merit only
for reliability purposes to support local transmissions upgrades) compared to a budget of just under 3,000
MWh. Because the units ran out of merit order, a negative gross margin (or loss of $406,092) was realized.
During the month of December, North American Energy Services reported that there were no lost time
accidents, OSHA reportable incidents or environmental Notice of Violations. Costs attributable to the
operations of the McKee Run and VanSant stations were $110,354 above a budget of $453,628 due to retro-
active pay to employees due under the IBEW contract, test in McKee Unit three and maintenance work
associated with the CT nozzle change-out. For power year 2006-07, operations are $$490,304 below a
budget of $2,819,012.
Energy and Risk Management
Wholesale load for the month of December was 60,384 MWh’s verses a three year historic load of 63,200
MWhs. Purchased power (or hedges) accounted for 60,220 MWH’s of this volume at a cost of $4.51
million. Purchases and sales as well as other PJM related charges accounted for an additional cost of
$185,237 inclusive of all load related fees. Total purchased power costs for the month of December was
$4.93 million resulting in an all in cost of power with fees of $81.69/MWh or $2.31 below the targeted
annual average of $84.00/MWh.
Dover remains calculated to be 96% hedged on peak and 100% hedged off peak for an anticipated all in
delivered cost of $83.34 for the 2006/07 power year. Hedging has begun for the 2007/08 power year and
currently Dover is hedged 91% on peak and 80% off peak with a at market expected price of $82.92/MWh
delivered to the Dover bus before any incentive fee paid to the Energy Manager. Hedging for 2008/09 and
2009/10 power years have also begun as described further in the report. All purchases are with investment
grade entities. Based on current market conditions, certain hedges have moved to be “out of the money” or
possess a negative market value to Dover. Credit is not currently required to be posted by the counterparties
but such position is being closely monitored by Pace Asset Management.

Highlights
• Generating units were not dispatch in merit order in the month due to soft prices, units ran to
support transmission work only
• Market pricing of fuel oil became cheaper in late December allowing the units to run on oil in lieu
of gas on several occasions.

Unit Trips/Outages
During the month of December, at the McKee Run Facility Unit 1 was self dispatched on December 18th,
19th, 20 th, and the 21st. Unit 2 was operated on December 12th and 13th and Unit 3 was operated on
December 4th, 5th, 6th 7th, 11th and 12th to support the City of Dover Electric Department while their line
crews worked on upgrades to the 69KV electrical distribution system. The line outage work will continue
into January 2007.
Other Events
Operation of the units to support the City of Dover’s 69KV line outages with scheduled dates in December
and January has begun. During the line outages in December, Units 1, 2, and 3 were put on line during the
month to support the Dover Load and for voltage support in various sections of the city. During the
December time frame, the McKee Run generating units also completed emission testing as required by the
McKee Run Title V Operating Permits. The test schedule has been approved by DNREC and emission
testing on Units 1, 2 & 3 began during the week of December 11. When Units 1, 2 and 3 were operated in
the December time period, the units successfully completed capacity tests as required by PJM for the
winter season. Unit 11 still is in exempt status until the unit is called upon to run in the winter period.
Proprietary & Confidential 5 PACE Report December 2006 (2)
Página 16
We continue to work on gathering information for DNREC in order to provide them with enough data to
approve a two year variance on an internal inspection of the tank. We are also proceeding with cleaning
of the #2 fuel oil tank that is now empty so that it can be assessed for either use as a holding tank for the
remaining fuel in the #1 fuel tank or to take the tank completely out of service. This work is expected to
start in the second week of January.
During the month, plant personnel coordinated with XL Insurance Services, the City of Dover’s insurance
carrier, to gather oil samples from transformers at both the McKee Run and VanSant facilities. Oil
sampling is part of the plant preventative/predictive maintenance program and the test results are used to
assess the condition of the transformers. Also during the month, XL Insurance Services provided an
outside test firm to perform thermographic tests on all of the motor control centers on Units 1 and 2.
Preliminary work has begun on developing the Budget for the fiscal year 2007-2008. Employee
suggestions to improve the plant have been solicited and will be evaluated for merit as part of the budget
development process.

However, an injury did occur to a visitor of one of our employees while on site. The injury occurred when
the spouse of an employee fell and broke her ankle. The injury did require surgery to implant pins and a
plate into her ankle for support. This was not an OSHA recordable injury.
The station operations worked 5,089 hours without an OSHA reportable incident or lost time accident.
There have been 635 days since the last OSHA reportable incident or lost time accident (April 5, 2005)
Generation Financial Performance
Per the table below, the McKee and VanSant station experienced a net gross margin loss of $401,092 on
energy sales for the month of December due to the fact the units ran out of merit (reliability reasons) to
support transmission related work performed by the City’s electric distribution department.

Purchased Commodity Gas Volumes and Pricing
Mild weather and lower loads in PJM yielded lower on and off-peak market prices which did not warrant
running of either the McKee Run or Van Sant generators except for reliability purposes which occurred
throughout the month of December. See Operations report for specific Units and days.

RISK MANAGEMENT
2006 - 2007 Power Year Hedge Position
As of January 10, estimated power consumption for Power Year 2006-2007 was hedged at 96% on peak
and 100% off-peak. Hedge volumes are based on the three year historical load profile of Dover at the
Dover bus prior to any distribution losses to the retail meter. As shown below at these hedge levels an all
in price to Dover is estimated at $83.34/MWh for the 2006/2007 power year. The 10 day value at risk
(with an adverse market movement in commodity and load following) could increase this target number to
$84.95/MWh.

estimated refund of $512,640 to be spread over 12 months beginning in June -06. The credit comes
through on the PJM bill as a reduction in the rate charged by DPL for Network transmission service. Pace
will track this credit to ensure the proper refund is received by the city. The savings by month is as
follows:
June-06: $91,577.42
July-06: $94,630.00
Aug-06: $94,630.00
Sept-06 $91,577.42
Oct-06 $94,630.00
Nov-06 $94,630.00 (being researched, appears to be an over refund)

2.0 Environmental, Health and Safety
During the month of December, there were no employee or contractor related injuries or illnesses.
However, an injury did occur to a visitor of one of our employees while on site. The injury
occurred when the spouse of an employee fell and broke her ankle. The injury did require surgery
to implant pins and a plate into her ankle for support. This was not an OSHA recordable injury.
There were no Notice of Violations or Environmental excursions during the month. There were
five opacity deviations during the month which occurred on Unit 2 during soot blowing as a result
of operating the unit all day on oil during testing. During emission testing, test protocol
prohibited the blowing of soot while testing was underway.

3.1 Variance analysis
For the month of December, we experienced an unfavorable variance of $110,354. Key contributors
to this variance include:
1) Personnel expenses were higher due to payment of retroactive pay to represented
employees as negotiated in the new IBEW union contract. These costs were offset
slightly from labor cost savings due to the open operator position.
2) Administrative expenses were higher due to Unit 3 Boiler testing for Multi-P Regulation
research and for the PJM Generator Operator Certification Training course held during
November at the McKee Run Facility
3) The purchase of fuel nozzles for the combustion turbine to eliminate the exhaust
temperature spread problem increased maintenance expenses. This expense was offset
slightly by otherwise lower maintenance expenses as a result of lower operating hours.

4.2 Personnel
We continue to have an opening in the operations department due to an employee leaving the
company in October to pursue other career opportunities. At the present time, we have decided to
leave the position unfilled. In addition, we are looking at reorganizing teams to reduce the number of
people per shift and eliminate the position all together.
Appraisals for the July 1- December 1, 2006 period were completed for all exempt and non-exempt
NAES-Dover employees and forwarded to the NAES HR department for their review. Action
plans/objectives for the coming year are being mutually developed for all employees and will be
finalized in the coming weeks.

on Unit 3 was completed during the month to comply with requirements set forth in the Title V
McKee Run Operating Permit. Oil and natural gas samples were taken from each unit sent out for
an ultimate analysis. Fuel sample results were sent to the test team to be used in the computations
in the final reports. The test reports are expected to be completed and sent back to the plant
towards the end of January or early February.
2) Recertification of the oil flow transmitter and oil flow meter for VanSant was completed after
the transmitter was replaced when it failed in late November.

Unit Trips/Outages/Operations
During the month of December, at the McKee Run Facility Unit 1 was self dispatched on December
18th, 19th, 20 th, and the 21st. Unit 2 was operated on December 12th and 13th and Unit 3 was
operated on December 4th, 5th, 6th 7th, 11th and 12th to support the City of Dover Electric Department
while their line crews worked on upgrades to the 69KV electrical distribution system. The line outage
work will continue into January 2007.
Other Events
Operation of the units to support the City of Dover’s 69KV line outages with scheduled dates in
December and January has begun. During the line outages in December, Units 1, 2, and 3 were put
on line during the month to support the Dover Load and for voltage support in various sections of the
city. During the December time frame, the McKee Run generating units also completed emission
testing as required by the McKee Run Title V Operating Permits. The test schedule has been
approved by DNREC and emission testing on Units 1, 2 & 3 began during the week of December 11.
When Units 1, 2 and 3 were operated in the December time period, the units successfully completed
capacity tests as required by PJM for the winter season. Unit 11 still is in exempt status until the unit
is called upon to run in the winter period.
We continue to work on gathering information for DNREC in order to provide them with enough
data to approve a two year variance on an internal inspection of the tank. We are also proceeding
with cleaning of the #2 fuel oil tank that is now empty so that it can be assessed for either use as a
holding tank for the remaining fuel in the #1 fuel tank or to take the tank completely out of service.
This work is expected to start in the second week of January.
During the month, plant personnel coordinated with XL Insurance Services, the City of Dover’s
insurance carrier, to gather oil samples from transformers at both the McKee Run and VanSant
facilities. Oil sampling is part of the plant preventative/predictive maintenance program and the test
results are used to assess the condition of the transformers. Also during the month, XL Insurance
Services provided an outside test firm to perform thermographic tests on all of the motor control
centers on Units 1 and 2.
Preliminary work has begun on developing the Budget for the fiscal year 2007-2008. Employee
suggestions to improve the plant have been solicited and will be evaluated for merit as part of the
budget development process.
