Excerpt of DRAFT Meeting Minutes for Planning Commission Meeting of October 17, 2011:
MI-11-11 Request for Street Name Change: Slaughter Street to Jerusalem Way – Review
for Recommendation to City Council of a Request for a Street Name Change for the one block
segment of Slaughter Street which runs in a north-south direction between West North Street and
West Loockerman Street just east of the railroad corridor. The new street name proposed is
Jerusalem Way. The request was filed in accordance with Dover Code of Ordinances, Chapter
98, Article II, Section 98-45 Street name change procedure which also references Appendix A:
Land Subdivision Regulations, Article VI, Section A. Streets. The name change procedure
requires review and comments by the Development Advisory Committee (DAC) and review by the
Planning Commission prior to public hearing and consideration by the City Council.
Representative: Reverend Clifton Holmes, New Jerusalem Baptist Church.
Mrs. Melson-Williams stated that this is a petition that was received by the City. The City of
Dover Code of Ordinances in Chapter 98 has a specific procedure for street name changes in
how that happens. The petition was filed and the review process begins with the Development
Advisory Committee. Comments were provided from the Development Advisory Committee
that she will highlight and then it moves onto the Planning Commission for review. You are to
consider the request this evening. There is no hearing that is required and your action this
evening is a recommendation regarding the name change request along with your reasons for
doing so.
Mrs. Melson-Williams further stated that the background report talks about the short segment of
Slaughter Street, specifically the segment of Slaughter Street that is one block in length and runs
in a north/south direction between what is West North Street and the terminus of Loockerman
Street near the train station. This request is to change that street segment from Slaughter Street
to Jerusalem Way.
Mrs. Melson-Williams further described some history about the area; it appears that the name
Slaughter Street for that street segment was identified in the late 1800’s. One of the property
owners in the vicinity and of this street segment was a T. Slaughter. This name appears on some
of the historical maps marking ownership in the area. There are a number of other names that
actually were used including Negro Street for this street. Basically, the street does not come into
existence until around 1885.
Mrs. Melson-Williams further stated that today, for the segment of Slaughter Street on the west
side is the Duncan Center building. The Duncan Center is addressed off of West Loockerman
Street; however, access to the parking facilities for that building comes off of Slaughter Street.
On the east side of Slaughter Street, only one building remains which is the church building that
is currently occupied by the New Jerusalem Baptist Church. In requesting the street name
change, there are some provisions within the Land Subdivision Regulations that go to the naming
conventions for streets and the proposed street name “Jerusalem Way” follows these
conventions.
Paj 7
Mrs. Melson-Williams further stated that the Planning Staff is recommending approval of the
street name change and our comments include that there will, if successful, have to be
notification of that street name change as well as installation of new street signage in the area.
The other reporting DAC agencies include the Public Utilities Department that comments on the
need for updated street signage should the change occur. There were no specific comments that
DelDOT had on the change. The Kent County 911 Addressing Center notes that they have no
objection to the proposed street name of “Jerusalem Way.”
There were no comments from any Planning Commission members at this time.
Reverend Holmes stated that he would appreciate your consideration this evening for this
request. In all due respect to Mr. Slaughter who this street was named after, we have had a
problem with some confusion with the other part of Slaughter Street with people stopping all the
time to ask for directions as well as confusion with mail delivery. This will help with the
confusion and is the reason for the request of the name change. He also noted that several
members of the church’s Board of Trustees were also present in the audience in support of the
request.
Mr. Hemmig stated that there is no public hearing required for this application.
Colonel Welsh moved to forward a recommendation of approval to City Council for MI-11-11
Request for Street Name Change: Slaughter Street to Jerusalem Way, seconded by Mr. Baldwin
and the motion was unanimously carried 6-0 with Mr. Tolbert, Mr. Nichols and Mr. Friedman
absent.

APPLICATION: Request for Street Name Change: Slaughter Street to Jerusalem Way
FILE#: MI-11-11 REVIEWING AGENCY: City of Dover Planning
CONTACT PERSON: Dawn E. Melson-Williams, AICP PHONE#: 736-7196
=====================================================================
This request is submitted for Planning Commission review of a Request for a Street Name
Change for the one block segment of Slaughter Street which runs in a north-south direction
between West North Street and West Loockerman Street just east of the railroad corridor. The
new street name proposed is Jerusalem Way.
The request was filed in accordance with Dover Code of Ordinances, Chapter 98, Article II,
Section 98-45 Street name change procedure which also references Appendix A: Land
Subdivision Regulations, Article VI, Section A. Streets. The name change procedure requires
review and comments by the Development Advisory Committee (DAC) and review by the
Planning Commission prior to review by the Utility Committee of City Council and then public
hearing and consideration by the City Council.
History of Area
This area of Dover is part of the downtown grid network of streets. The 1868 Beers Map of Dover
shows limited development in this area with only the railroad corridor and a large block bounded by
Loockerman Street to the north, Queen Street on the east, and North Street on the south. Within the
block, there are two buildings fronting on Loockerman Street, a cemetery adjacent to Queen Street,
and an African Church building. The western portion of the block is owned by T. Slaughter. The
1885 Bird’s Eye View of Dover by Bailey shows a north-south street bisecting the block by 1885
with more extensive building development (residences, a school) fronting the street. Review of the
Sanborn Fire Insurance Map series 1885-1944, shows the street names of Negro Street and
Slaughter Street for this street segment. It appears that this street segment was named for the
adjacent property owner, T. Slaughter.
It is also noted that there is another street segment also named Slaughter Street (not subject to this
request). This street is located west of the railroad corridor and runs east-west with street
connections of Clarence Street and Minima Street to West North Street. This “Slaughter Street” is
depicted on an 1887 Map of Dover by W.B. Roe.
Existing Conditions and Use:
For this one block segment of Slaughter Street, the west side adjacent to the railroad corridor is
developed with a multi-story office building and parking lot known as the Duncan Center and
Paj 9

addressed as 500 West Loockerman Street. The site access to the parking lot is from Slaughter
Street. On the east side of the block the only remaining building fronting on the subject street is a
church building (constructed circa 1871) currently occupied by the New Jerusalem Baptist Church.
The church is addressed as 25 Slaughter Street.
This street right-of-way is owned and maintained by the City of Dover.
Request for Street Name Change
The proposed Street Name requested is Jerusalem Way for this segment of Slaughter Street. Within
the Land Subdivision Regulations Article VI, Section A. Streets, guidelines for the naming of
streets are provided.
Article VI. Section A. Streets. 16. Street names shall be selected so as not to duplicate, or be
confused with, the names of existing streets. Street names shall be subject to the approval of the

Budget Actual
Powers Supply costs were $489,212 under budget due to decreased PJM load (4,338
MWh less than forecast). This variance is inclusive of 1,012MWh of solar power
generated by the Dover Sun Park in August.
Average cost/MWh on the supply side was $90.17 compared to a budgeted cost of
$91.45. Mild temperatures in PJM along with Hurricane Irene’s impact resulted in lower
load and lower energy prices.
Dover’s hedge purchases totaled 61,280 MWh, which was 80% of the projected load.
Versus actual load, this hedged percentage totaled 85% of Dover’s needs for the month.
Dover’s power purchases from hedge transactions totaled $4,435,151. Purchases from
PJM totaled $1,243,031 (all in), with DA Energy purchases totaling $747,504 and
Balancing Spot Market Energy totaling $118,708.

Budget Actual
Net generation for the month credited by PJM was 2,825MWh. The budget did not
expect any generation. Net generation revenue totaled $145,859 vs. a budget of
$260,656. Dover’s units were dispatched for a total of 9 starts and ran for more than 54
hours this month.
Operations Management Summary
During the month of August, there were no restricted work days or lost time accidents.
The facility has now gone 321 days without an OSHA recordable accident or a Lost Time
reportable accident. The plant received no Notice of Violations (NOVs).
The actual expenses for August are $392,825 against a budgeted amount of $432,020 for
a favorable variance of $39,195 or ≈ 9.07%. The variance was due to the following:
PERSONNEL EXPENSES – Favorable variance of $60,800.
MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES EXPENSES- The account with any appreciable variance was
the Water and Sewer account which was higher than budgeted due to supporting unit operations
for an unfavorable variance of $28,086.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES – Lower than budgeted expenses in the areas of Electric,
Environmental Expenses, DCS Control Systems / Maintenance and Combustion Turbine
Maintenance contributed to a favorable variance of $6,481.
The current budget forecast for the current fiscal year is $5,917,031 expensed versus an approved
budget of $5,964,818 thereby realizing a 99.20%.expense rate.

Paj 18
In the month of August, Units 3 and 11 were dispatched three times and once
respectively by PJM. During the month, Unit 11 also successfully completed the PJM
Capacity Test for the Summer Demonstration Period. Unit 11 was operated for the City
of Dover during Hurricane Irene to supply cranking power to McKee Run Unit 3 which
was on hot standby, in the event the City of Dover was disconnected from the Bulk
Electric System
Risk Management Summary
Similar to July, PJM power prices remained strong through the month of August, against
falling natural gas prices. Subsequently, the PJM heat rate is trading near its highs.
Natural gas storage remains in the low middle of the 5-year range.
The current projected cost of service is below:
Power Year Hedge Ratio Blended Cost
($/MWh)
2011-12 83% $70.57
2012-13 74% $67.84

Variance Analysis:
Power Supply
Due to normal temperatures and reduced load in the mid-Atlantic, Dover consumed
4,338MWh below what was forecasted.
The decrease in load along with stable prices in PJM resulted in a cost of $90.17/MWh
for power supply, $1.28/MWh less than budget.
For the month, the city realized a favorable variance of $509,931 for power supply vs.
the monthly budget.
This variance can be attributed to the decrease in load from the forecast.
Generation
Power generation realized an unfavorable budget variance of $114,797.
This included a $215,846 charge from PJM for failure to provide 3.4 MWs of expected
capacity in 2010-2011. This was due to the excursion on unit 1 in July 2010.
Plant O&M expenses realized a favorable budget variance of $73,354.
Power Generation Production Margin realized a favorable budget variance of $2,738.
Dover’s Generation output was sold to PJM at an average of $110/MWh.

Budget Actual
Dover’s total load was 72,469 MWh versus a forecasted load of 76,807 MWh.
Dover’s planned hedged volume was 80% of forecast. The decrease in load
resulted in a realized hedged volume of 85% of actual load.
Dover’s planned energy cost/MWh of unhedged load was $121. The actual
energy cost for unhedged load was $124/MWh – this increase on a $/MWh was
more in part to spreading fixed costs across the decreased load than any increase
in PJM prices..

Emissions and Allowance Management
Dover has elected not to include revenues from emission allowance sales in its 2011-
2012 fiscal year budget. Dover has more than sufficient allowances set aside for
retirement (see Exhibit 1). Due to the expiration of EPA’s Clean Air Interstate Rule
(CAIR) at the end of CY2011, any unused or unsold CAIR allowances will expire
without residual value.

EPA Cross-State Air Pollution Rule or CSAPR
The final CSPAR was published in the August 8, 2011 Federal Register (76 FR 48208),
with an effective date of October 7, 2011. The first compliance period begins for annual
SO2 and NOx allowances on January 1, 2012. As mentioned in last month’s report,
CSAPR does not include compliance requirements or allowance allocations for
generating units located in Delaware and Dover will not be required to submit emission
allowances for annual SO2, annual NOx or Seasonal NOx for compliance years 2012 and
beyond.
While there continues to be the possibility of legislative and legal challenges to this new
rule, affected entities must assume it will become effective on the stated date and begin
complying with the rule.
As stated on the EPA Website, "EPA will remove CAIR allowances of vintage years
2012 and greater from all AMS accounts on Friday, October 14, 2011. Within 2 or 3 days
before this date, EPA will send an email to the designated representatives and authorized
account representatives of accounts that include these CAIR allowances and remind these
representatives of the scheduled removal of these CAIR allowances.
After removal of the vintage year 2012 and greater CAIR allowances, on Monday,
October 17, 2011, EPA will begin recording vintage year 2012 CSAPR allowance
allocations in compliance accounts of units as addressed in the notice of data availability
(NODA) published in the Federal Register on July 18, 2011. Unit-level CSAPR
allowance allocations, and the data upon which those allocations are based, can be
viewed at http://www.epa.gov/crossstaterule/techinfo.html.
The Clean Air Act Title IV provisions for SO2 will remain in effect and Dover, which
does not have significant SO2 emissions, will need to continue compliance with this
program.
SO2 and NOx
CAIR prices continue to be deflated because of over-supply, as shown on Figures 1
through 3. Markets are just beginning to form for CSAPR allowance prices and the
magnitude of CSAPR prices are significantly higher than recent CAIR allowance prices.

RGGI and Federal Carbon Outlook
RGGI allowance prices continue to price at very low levels due to over-supply, dropping
to $1.86 as of September 20, 2011 which is below the reserve price of $1.89/ton. The
13th RGGI auction occurred on September 7th and cleared at the reserve price of $1.89,
with only 18% of the 2009-2011 control period allowances offered for sale actually being
sold in the auctions. TEA continues to monitor RGGI activities.
In Congress, there continues to be little movement on climate legislation. EPA continues
to pursue the “Tailoring Rule” which will impact new sources and Clean Air Act Title V
permitting existing source; however on September 15, 2011 EPA confirmed that it would
not meet a September 30 deadline for issuing rules governing greenhouse gas emissions
from power plants and other major sources.
EPA issued the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases Rule (74 FR 56260) which
requires reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) data and other relevant information from
large sources and suppliers in the United States. The purpose of the rule is to collect
accurate and timely GHG data to inform future policy decisions. The implementation
program for this rule is referred to as the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP).
The deadline to submit 2010 reports is September 30, 2011. NAES has indicated it will
submit the report in a timely manner.

1.0 Environmental, Health and Safety:
During the month of August, there were no restricted work days or lost time accidents.
The facility has now gone 321 days without an OSHA recordable accident or a Lost Time
reportable accident. The plant received no Notice of Violations (NOVs).
The facility submitted the revised 2010 Q3 & Q4 ECMPS data for Unit 3 which provided
the amended MER constants for emission calculation purposes. With the revised data, the
EPA was able to complete the annual NOx reconciliation for 2010. Utilizing the
amended MER constants, the facility emissions went from 119 NOx tons (allowances) to
89 NOx tons (allowances), a reduction 30 NOx emission allowances that were reported
emitted.
Work continues on addressing the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) issue for Outfalls 004
and 005. In an effort to purse alternate and possibly less costly solutions to the handling
of cooling tower blowdown, preliminary discussions with the City of Dover Public
Works Department have opened the possibility of discharging the waste to the Kent
County Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP). This option could have the additional
benefit of removing the facility NPDES discharge permit (other than general storm water)
as well as from the DRBC docket requirements. Further discussions with the City as well
as with Kent County to develop this concept are scheduled to take place in September.
Environmental training was conducted across all teams to review and discuss the facility
emergency response plans (ERAP, SMP-2, SPCC, SWPPP, FRP), and specifically the
2011 Q1 and Q2 FRP exercises (Deployment Drill – Q1, Tabletop – Q2). Employee
feedback regarding the exercises has been positive and productive discussions have taken
place. An emphasis was put on the concept of the Incident Command System (ICS) and
how it may be utilized to enhance the facilities ability to respond to incidents of all types,
as well as interface with outside agencies and resources in an effective manner.

2.1 Variance analysis:
The actual expenses for August are $392,825 against a budgeted amount of $432,020 for a
favorable variance of $39,195 or ≈ 9.07%. The variance was due to the following:
PERSONNEL EXPENSES – A favorable variance of $60,800 was realized in the Straight
labor, Overtime, and Labor Burdens accounts due to several open staff positions.
Note: Included in this variance is a positive variance of $31,912 for the Employee Incentive
Accumulator and Employee Incentive Burden Accumulator that will occur every month. These
expenses were broken down into every month over the entire year, instead of having them
budgeted for June of 2012 when they would actually be expensed.
MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES EXPENSES- The account with any appreciable variance was
the Water and Sewer account which was higher than budgeted due to supporting unit operations
for an unfavorable variance of $28,086.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES – Lower than budgeted expenses in the areas of Electric,
Environmental Expenses, DCS Control Systems / Maintenance and Combustion Turbine
Maintenance contributed to a favorable variance of $6,481.
The current budget forecast for the current fiscal year is $5,917,031 expensed versus an approved
budget of $5,964,818 thereby realizing a 99.20%.expense rate.

Notable activities during the month include:
1) Maintenance staff completed the cleaning of the lube oil tank sump pit. The staff
pumped out the fluid from the sump tank and cleaned out the remaining residue
and debris. The staff then properly labeled all the drums and stored them in the
Used Oil Storage room in preparation for the next scheduled disposal pick-up.
2) Maintenance staff completed the removal of 2B Circulating Water Pump (CWP)
and motor. The motor was removed, blocked up securely and was placed into
temporary storage while the pump is being repaired. The pump was removed and
blocked up while waiting for the repair contractor to arrange pick-up of the
equipment. The pump will undergo a thorough inspection so that a work scope
may be developed and the pump repaired to address any identified discrepancies.
3) IC& E Staff completed repairs on the security camera system and the main gate
call button when the plant experienced a lighting strike. A new multiplexer and
power supply for the camera system was installed to correct the problems with the
25
Paj 41
camera security system. A new call button was installed to correct the problem
with the call button at main entrance to the plant.
4) IC&E staff assisted with the capacity test for Unit 11. During the start up of the
gas turbine, the unit experienced a problem with the flame detection system. The
scanners were fogging up during the ramp up of the unit. The staff cleaned the
scanners and put the scanner back into service. Once the scanners were cleaned
and the unit warmed up in the firing mode, the fire scanners had no more issues.
5) IC&E Staff completed the repairs on the air conditioning system for Units 1 & 2
elevator control room. The staff was able to troubleshoot the problem and avoided
any interruption of control services that are housed in the control room. The room
houses controls for elevator and essential radio base stations from different
organization including the COD and the Delaware State Police.

6.0 General Plant Information
Training:
Environmental training was conducted across all teams to review and discuss the facility
emergency response plans (ERAP, SMP-2, SPCC, SWPPP, FRP), and specifically the
2011 Q1 and Q2 FRP exercises (Deployment Drill – Q1, Tabletop – Q2). Employee
feedback regarding the exercises has been positive and productive discussions have taken
place. An emphasis was put on the concept of the Incident Command System (ICS) and
how it may be utilized to enhance the facilities ability to respond to incidents of all types,
as well as interface with outside agencies and resources in an effective manner.
Additionally, a new practice has been identified and will be incorporated into the facility
bulk unloading procedures. Employees will now be required to review the delivery
vehicle safety features and pertinent safety/environmental documentation prior to the
commencement of unloading activities.
Plant employees continue General Physics safety training and environmental courses to
enhance their overall knowledge of permit and safety requirements. As the GPI courses
are being completed the employee reviews the standard operating procedure (SMP) for
the same topic they are training on to review NAES policy as well.

RE: NPDES Permit for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4)
As you are aware from previous discussions, the City of Dover has a permit through the National Pollution Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) for our Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4). This permit was issued by the
Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC) in 2003for a five-year period. The permit has
been administratively extended by DNREC until all requirements of the permit are met and a new permit is in place.
Under the permit, the City is required to take action to improve the quality of stormwater runoff within the City.
Since the initiation of the permit, the City has struggled with compliance. In June 2010, the responsibility for managing
the permit was transferred from Public Services to Planning. Also on June 2, 2010, the City received a Notice of
Violation (NOV) relating to a number of permit requirements that had not been met. This NOV was closed out in
November 2010, when the terms of that NOV were met. DNREC subsequently performed an audit of the City’s MS4
permit in early 2011, and in June 2011, DNREC reported the results of that audit and issued another NOV. This NOV
related to outstanding permit requirements that were not addressed in the NOV issued in June 2010. The NOV issued in
June 2011 includes a number of required corrective actions that must be complete by December 31, 2011.
With the leadership of Michael Albert and assistance from the Watershed Assessment Section at DNREC and Wesley
College Environmental Science Program, the City is making great strides in moving toward compliance with the permit
requirements. This fall, the Wesley College Environmental Science Program provided an intern to help with the
outstanding tasks associated with the Notice of Violation, including development of a Storm Water Management Plan for
2012-2015. The Environmental Science students are also working to develop a number of public outreach materials that
will be implemented under the Storm Water Management Plan that will begin in January 2012.
Tasks completed in recent months include:
Marking of storm drains in the downtown area and throughout the State Complex;
Development of a brochure for the general public about non-point source pollution;
Completion of a survey regarding attitudes about water quality;
Development of a poster regarding proper automotive care that was distributed to all automotive businesses in the
City of Dover;
Insertion of an auto maintenance fact sheet into utility bills;
Continued progress on storm sewer system mapping.
In addition, I have received the State’s Certified Construction Reviewer certification. Sharon Duca and I will be providing
training to all City road staff and their supervisors on best management practices to protect water quality. The City’s new
website also includes information on the Stormwater Program, as required by the permit.
