Dear, Hay hMelson:
We. ne in receipt of your letter dated December 17, 2003, requesting a statement with regards to
availability of sewer service to the above referenced properties. You stated that the proposed zoning
for the properties is RM-1. Sewer collection and local transmission service for this area including
the aforementioned properties is provided by the City of Dover. The City Department of Public
Works will have to certify the adequacy of said system. We suggest that the wastewater flow from
the subdivision be routed into the city owned McKee Road pump station. Said pump station is
currently connected to the Kent County Pump Station No. 2.
The County is in the process of constructing a parallel transmission main expanding the capacity
needed to serve the City of Dover under the existing Contract User Agreement. In the future, the
McKee Road pump station will be connected to this new parallel transmission main. Therefore, if
the Chestnut Grove Farm subdivision will be connected to the McKee Road pump station, we have
sufficient transmission and treatment capacity to serve the projected sewer flows of the proposed
ma,

Electric Rate Study Status Report
Updated January 29, 2004
The Electric Rate Study Implementation Committee found that if we implemented the
recommendations of the consultants including: proposed energy rates, demand rates, 95%
power factor, the 100% Demand Ratcheting, and 25KV criteria for distinguishing
between small and medium commercial customers total revenue would increase 11.93%
or $6,317,544 more than projected by the consultant. Keep in mind new rates were to be
revenue neutral as a whole.
When analyzing why this occurred we determined that 1) Consultant appeared to not
have factored in the impact of 100% ratcheting or the power factor when making the
recommendations on energy and demand rates. 2) Also the consultant did not factor in
the shifting of commercial customers from small to medium classes when applying the
25KV criteria.
Based on our analysis to date the committee recommends the following:
1. Accepting the consultant’s recommendations for residential rate structure. The
committee recommends increasing the rate from $.0880 to .0890. Our
calculations indicated that without this slight adjustment, the rate would not cover
cost of service and provide needed revenue.
2. Accepting the proposed energy rates and customer service charges proposed by
consultant for all rates except primary (see #6 below).
3. Not accepting the consultant’s recommendation for 25K'V peak demand as the
criteria for determining whether a customer is a small or medium commercial
customer, this caused too much rate shifting resulting in higher cost to customers
that were not anticipated by the consultant. The committee proposes keeping the
current criteria of 3,500 kwh for two consecutive months.
4. Accepting the consultant’s recommendation for 95% power factor and 100%
ratcheting for demand customers (medium commercial, large commercial,
primary, transmission and special rates) as good practices to put into place, but we
recommend reducing the proposed demand rates to equalize for the increase in
cost caused by the power factor and ratcheting increases.
5. Accepting the consultant’s recommendation for billing demand based on a
standard maximum 15-minute demand during the month. Currently, primary and
special rates demands are based on a maximum 60-minute demand during the
month.

6. Accepting recommendation of moving the Church rate, Agricultural Commercial
Rate, and Municipal Rate customers into appropriate commercial classes, this
actually caused an overall decrease in cost for these customers.
Areas needing additional review:
1. We are continuing to analyze the impact on Primary Customers. When we applied
the 95% power factor and the 100% Demand Ratcheting with modified demand
rates we were able to bring the overall classes revenue up to the 4% recommended
by the consultant. The problem we are having is that we found wide variations
within the customers. Some customers saw increases of .604% while others were
increased by 24.8%. We are currently examining ways to smooth the impact on
this rate class. The study also recommended reincorporating three special rate
customers back into this rate class. The large increases these customer’s are
experiencing because of that is being analyzed and reviewed by the committee.
Until we can examine this further the committee is uncomfortable making a
recommendation.
Update 1/29/04:
e Playtex Apparel was moved to the primary rate. Their consumption was
changed to reflect their decreased usage since March of 2003.
e Playtex Products remains at their current rate with adjustment of power
factor to 95% and an additional $1 charge for demand.
e Tilcon is under contract. Therefore, their rate was changed back to their
original contractual rate.
e Continuing to examine the possibility of increasing the general primary
tate to meet the 4% increase recommended by the Rate Study.
2. Impact on the Medium Commercial class was erratic with 96 out of 1,084
customers experiencing 50 % or larger percentage increases from current bills.
We are examining why these large increases are occurring. Until this issue is
resolved we are uncomfortable approving a demand charge for this class of
customer.
Update 1/29/04:
e We removed 25K W minimum charge.
