June 4, 2014 Ms. Donna S. Mitchell, CPA Controller/Treasurer City of Dover 5 East Reed Street Weyandt Hall, Suite 300 Dover, Delaware 19901 RE: Annual Engineering Consultant’s Report Project No. 78609 Dear Ms. Mitchell: In compliance with the requirements of Section 705 and Section 504 of the City of Dover, Delaware Resolution Authorizing and Securing Electric Revenue Bonds, adopted December 23, 1985 (Resolution), Burns & McDonnell submits this Annual Engineering Consultant’s Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. This report summarizes our review and assessment of the City of Dover’s (City) Electric System, its existing retail electric rates, its insurance coverage in effect, and its reserve funds. Financial, statistical, and operating data used in preparing the report were initially reported in the City’s annual financial statements and accounting records. Additional information was furnished by City and Electric Division staff. In the preparation of this Engineering Consultant’s Report, Burns & McDonnell completed assessments of the electric generating stations and the transmission and distribution system of the City’s Electric Division. Assessments involved interviews, observations, and review of fiscal year 2013 expenditures and fiscal year 2014 budgets. In addition, an analysis of the balances of the Improvement and Extension Fund as well as other funds supporting the Electric Division was performed. Burns & McDonnell also reviewed the adequacy of revenues provided by current retail rates in relation to the requirements of the Resolution. Finally, a high-level assessment of the City’s insurance coverage related to the Electric Division was completed. Based on these reviews and assessments, it is the opinion of Burns & McDonnell that the Electric System is being operated and maintained, including replacements and upgrades as appropriate, in a manner that is consistent with current electric utility practices. In addition, the current retail rates have provided sufficient revenues to satisfy the debt service coverage requirement in the Resolution. Further, it is the opinion of Burns & McDonnell that the balances in the various reserve funds maintained by the City for the Electric Division are sufficient for their intended purposes. 9400 Ward Parkway • Kansas City, MO 64114-3319 Tel: 816 333-9400 • Fax: 816 333-3690 • www.burnsmcd.com

The Resolution requires that the Engineering Consultant complete the following: “The City covenants that it will cause the Engineering Consultants employed under the provisions of Section 705 of this Resolution . . . to make an inspection of the Electric System at least once each fiscal year and . . . to submit to the City Manager a report setting forth (a) their findings whether the properties of the Electric System have been maintained in good repair, working order and condition and whether they have been operated efficiently and economically and (b) their recommendation as to (i) the proper maintenance, repair and condition of the Electric System during the ensuing fiscal year and an estimate of the appropriations which should be made for such purposes, (ii) the insurance to be carried under the provisions of Article VII of this Resolution, (iii) the amount that should be deposited during the ensuing fiscal year to the credit of the Improvement and Extension Fund for the purposes set forth in Section 510 of this Article, (iv) the extensions, improvements, renewals and replacements which should be made during the ensuing fiscal year, and (v) any necessary or advisable revisions of the electric rates.” This is the eleventh annual Engineering Consultant’s Report prepared for the City by Burns & McDonnell. 1.2 Electric System Overview and Assessment The Electric Division served 23,446 customers at the end of fiscal year (FY) 2013, 19,993 of which were residential customers. Four of the Electric Division customers take service from the 69-kV transmission system. These customers include the Dover Air Force Base, Kraft, Proctor & Gamble, and NRG Energy City of Dover, Delaware 1-1 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Executive Summary Center (NRG). NRG is an exempt wholesale generator that sells power that must be transmitted through the City’s transmission system to third party purchasers. When the NRG plant is not operational, the Electric Division provides power for the plant site. 1.2.1 General Plant General plant facilities consist primarily of Electric Division administrative and operations facilities and pollution control related equipment on McKee Run Generating Station (McKee Run) and VanSant Generating Station (VanSant). Other types of general plant include office furniture and equipment, transportation and power-operated equipment, and communication equipment. Effective July 1, 2011, the City entered into an Energy Management Agreement with The Energy Authority, Inc. (TEA) to assist the City with its energy procurement, energy sale, purchase of fuels, establishment and management of risk policies, and the development and management of hedging protocols and related energy procurement challenges. Headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, TEA is a non-profit energy manager owned by seven public utility systems operating across the nation. 1.2.2 Production Plant The City owns two generating plants, the McKee Run and VanSant generating stations. McKee Run consists of three steam turbine generating units with a total combined capacity of 136 megawatts (MW). VanSant is a 39 MW simple-cycle combustion turbine unit. North American Energy Services Corporation (NAES Corporation) operates the generating plants. The agreement between the City and NAES Corporation has been in effect since July 1, 2006. The various systems and components of the generating plants reviewed by the Engineering Consultant are listed below: Major Equipment  Steam turbines/generators  Boilers and auxiliaries  Station cooling water systems  Fuel handling systems  Water treatment systems  Station electrical systems  Station control systems  General facilities City of Dover, Delaware 1-2 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Executive Summary Management and Organization  Safety  Training  Staffing Based on statements and information provided by the City, as well as the observations and reviews performed, it is the Engineering Consultant’s opinion that the City’s power generation facilities are being operated and maintained consistent with generally accepted electric utility practice in the United States. In general, the performance, operation, maintenance, staff, planning, and training aspects for the McKee Run and VanSant were found to be above average. Specifically, the generation facilities have demonstrated a high level of availability despite the dispatching of the units primarily for peak demand. 1.2.3 Transmission and Distribution Plant The transmission and distribution network includes 44 miles of overhead transmission lines, 0.12 miles of underground transmission lines, 190 miles of overhead distribution lines and 268 miles of underground distribution lines. Four Electric Division customers take service off of the 69-kV transmission system. The following list includes areas of the transmission and distribution system that were considered and reviewed.  System reliability  Power quality  Operations and maintenance  Design standards and specifications  Transmission and distribution improvements It is the Engineering Consultant’s opinion that the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of the City’s electric transmission and distribution system and the associated facilities are consistent with current generally accepted electric utility standards. In recent years, the City has made appropriate upgrades and improvements which the Engineering Consultant has observed while conducting the reviews and assessments to complete the annual reports. 1.3 Financial Assessment The level of revenues required from the retail electric rates for the Electric Division were determined through the analysis of the financial results and net income or net margins for FY 2013. The Resolution requires that the Electric Division maintain a debt service coverage ratio of 1.25. City of Dover, Delaware 1-3 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Executive Summary Customers of the Electric Division of the City were charged for the electric service they received based on the City’s rate schedules and contracts that were in place in FY 2013. A comprehensive cost-of-service and rate design study was completed in 2006 and subsequent rate analyses were completed in 2007, 2008, 2012, and 2013 to examine revenue requirements and revenue generation. Specifically, the 2006 rate study was conducted to address increased costs associated with a new power supply contract that became effective on July 1, 2006. The rate study recommended combining a number of rate classes and implementing rate increases on July 1, 2006. The 2006 rate study also recommended an additional increase be implemented on January 1, 2007 to cover increased costs associated with operating the generating station. The 2007 and 2008 rate analyses re-examined Electric Division revenues and expenses and recognized additional revisions to power supply costs. As a result of these analyses, additional rate increases were implemented on July 1, 2007, July 1, 2008, and July 2012. The July 2013 rate adjustments established the rate schedules utilized by the Electric Division today. Total energy sales increased from 710.3 GWh in FY 2012 to 723.1 GWh in FY 2013, an increase of 1.8 percent. Total revenue from sales to electric customers in FY 2013 was $88.3 million, representing a decrease of $3.6 million from FY 2012 rate revenue of $91.9 million. In FY 2013, the average revenue per kWh for residential customers was 14.00 cents and the system-wide average price was 12.22 cents per kWh. The Electric Division’s largest cost in providing electric service to its customers is the wholesale cost of power purchased from the Pennsylvania New Jersey Maryland Interconnection (PJM) marketplace through its energy manager, TEA. From FY 2012 to FY 2013, the cost of power increased from $58.9 million to $65.4 million. Net income decreased from $8.5 million in FY 2012 to $6.2 million in FY 2013. The net income decrease in FY 2013 was due in large part to the increase in transfers out of the Electric Revenue Fund. Following is an excerpt from Section 502(c) of the Resolution. “(c) The total amount of the Revenues of the Electric System during the preceding fiscal year shall have been not less than the total of the following: The Current Expenses of the Electric System during the current fiscal years shown by the Annual Budget . . . for such fiscal year, and City of Dover, Delaware 1-4 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Executive Summary One hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the maximum amount of the Principal and Interest Requirements for any fiscal year thereafter on account of all bonds then Outstanding under the provisions of this Resolution.” The Resolution requires that annual revenues of the Electric Division be no less than the total current expenses plus 125 percent of the greatest remaining annual debt service. The Electric Division achieved debt service coverage ratios for FY 2011, FY 2012, and FY 2013 of 5.45, 6.48, and 6.56 respectively; therefore, the revenues generated by the current electric rates have been sufficient to meet the applicable covenant of the Resolution. The City maintains a comprehensive insurance program to cover varying types of liabilities, as well as significant losses related to various Electric Division properties. It is the opinion of Burns & McDonnell as Engineering Consultant, and not as insurance counselor, the insurance in full force and affect appears to satisfy the requirements of Section 706 of the Resolution. The City established the Electric Revenue Fund and the Electric Improvement & Extension (I&E) Fund to make moneys available for specific purposes when they are needed. The following is a list of these funds’ respective cash accounts: Electric Revenue Fund  Insurance Reserve Account  Contingency Reserve Account  Electric Rate Stabilization Reserve Account  Interest and Sinking Account Electric Improvement and Extension Fund  Depreciation Reserve Account  Future Capacity Reserve Account The Engineering Consultant reviewed activity information on the accounts listed above and found that the balances in those accounts as of June 30, 2013, were consistent with the required or target balances. 1.4 Conclusions Based on the reviews and assessments completed, it is the opinion of Burns & McDonnell that: City of Dover, Delaware 1-5 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment Effective July 1, 2011, the City entered into an Energy Management Agreement with The Energy Authority, Inc. (TEA) to assist the City with its energy procurement, energy sales, purchase of fuels, establishment and management of risk policies, the development and management of hedging protocols and related energy procurement challenges. 3.1.2 Transmission and Distribution Plant The service area includes 44 miles of overhead transmission lines, 0.12 miles of underground transmission lines, 190 miles of overhead distribution lines and 268 miles of underground distribution lines. Four Electric Division customers take service off of the 69-kV transmission system. These customers include the Dover Air Force Base, Kraft, Proctor & Gamble, and NRG Energy Center (NRG). NRG is an exempt wholesale generator that sells power that must be transmitted through the City’s transmission system to third party purchasers. When the NRG plant is not operating the Electric Division provides power for the plant site. The Electric Division has two contracts for providing transmission service through the Electric System. The Electric Division provides transmission service to NRG for the output of its 16 MW electric generator. The Electric Division also has a point-to-point contract for the output of an NRG Combustion Turbine which ties directly to the Kent Substation and is not part of the Dover transmission system. 3.1.3 General Plant The general plant category consists primarily of Electric Division administrative and operations facilities, and pollution control-related equipment at McKee Run and VanSant. The agreement with NAES Corporation stipulates NAES Corporation manage the operation and maintenance of the facilities while the City funds all replacements and upgrades required to maintain the capability of the two generating stations. The City is also responsible for the costs of compliance with new regulations promulgated. Other types of items included in the general plant category include office furniture and equipment, computer- related equipment, transportation and power-operated equipment, and communication equipment. Burns & McDonnell did not specifically assess the items in the general plant category for the Report. 3.2 Electric System Assessment Burns & McDonnell made observations and conducted assessments of the Electric System assets in support of the development of this annual Engineering Consultant’s Report. The findings of Burns & McDonnell from the review of the City’s Electric System are documented herein. City of Dover, Delaware 3-3 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment 3.2.1 Electric Generating Stations On April 17, 2014, Mr. Ted Kelly of Burns & McDonnell met with representatives of NAES Corporation to discuss the condition of the McKee Run and VanSant generating stations. Mr. Kenneth Beard, the Plant O&M Manager, coordinated the visit along with Mr. Vince Scire, the Plant Manager. 3.2.1.1 Description McKee Run consists of three units. Units 1 and 2 were originally coal-fired units, which began operations in 1961 and 1962, respectively. In 1972, these units were converted to burn No. 6 fuel oil. Units 1 and 2 each have rated capacities of 17 MW. Unit 3 began operations in 1975 and was designed to fire No. 6 fuel oil and natural gas. Unit 3 has a rated capacity of 102 MW. In FY 2008, the City began work to convert all three units at McKee Run to burn No. 2 fuel oil in order to reduce pollution from the plant. To date, the necessary upgrades and new equipment had been installed allowing each of the units to burn both natural gas and No. 2 fuel oil. VanSant consists of a simple cycle combustion turbine with a rated capacity of 39 MW. This unit commenced operation in 1991. VanSant remains unmanned, except when it is dispatched into service. On the occasions when the unit is dispatched, personnel from McKee Run are transferred to VanSant to startup and operate the unit. 3.2.1.2 Management and Organization Station management is very well organized and knowledgeable. Personnel take a logical approach to the operation and maintenance of the generation facilities. Mr. Vince Scire serves as the Plant Manager. The management/leadership team consists of eight positions including Mr. Scire’s position. The Administrative Manager, O&M Manager, Compliance Coordinator, and Materials Coordinator, all report directly to Mr. Scire. One Operations Supervisor and two Day Shift Operator positions are currently open at the plant. The open Operations Supervisor position is part of the management/leadership team. The O&M Manager oversees a Maintenance Supervisor and four Operations teams. Each operations team consists of two supervisors and three operators working 12-hour rotating shifts. Two operators work eight-hour flex time shifts Monday through Friday, and fill in as needed. The maintenance team consists of a planner, a supervisor and five employees working eight-hour shifts. The operations and maintenance personnel are all union employees. The relationship between the union and management was reported to be excellent. McKee Run is currently at a staff level of 29 employees, with 32 approved positions. City of Dover, Delaware 3-4 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment 3.2.1.3 Safety “Safety First” is an overall theme and attitude of the Electric Division. Near-miss incidents are documented, reviewed, and corrective follow-up actions are taken as required with an employee-run safety committee actively in place. This committee conducts monthly safety meetings, completes safety equipment inspections, and defines and implements tasks to improve safety in all areas. Members of the safety committee complete periodic visual inspections of employee work activities utilizing an observation checklist to detail their findings. Recorded observations are discussed and infractions corrected. Safety is the first topic discussed at all meetings at the generating plant. An indoctrination video emphasizing safety is shown to all visitors when entering the Station. There were no restricted work days or lost time accidents reported in FY 2013. NAES ended the year with 51,786 man-hours worked with no OSHA recordable accidents. 3.2.1.4 Training The required annual OSHA compliance training is completed and documented for each employee. A formal two-day employee orientation program is required for all new employees. This orientation covers a multitude of subjects from employee benefits to a review of the various Station operating manuals. For operator training, the Employee Development and Qualification Program (EDQP) has been established. EDQP is a formal program for training operators to progressively advance to positions with additional responsibilities. In addition to the above programs, cross training of various disciplines also occurs. An example of cross training would be plant operators training with maintenance staff. Plant staff receive environmental and safety training online via the GPi Learning website. The training includes tutorials and exams to ensure comprehension of the subject matter. Plant manuals, meetings, etc. offer additional safety training. Plant staff continues to receive appropriate operator certification training for the Pennsylvania New Jersey Maryland Interconnection (PJM) market. This training should continue in the future. The plant also completes planning and scheduling training on a regular basis for plant operators. 3.2.1.5 Major Equipment Operation and Maintenance In general, the generation facilities appear to have been properly operated and maintained, and in good condition as evidenced by the high availability of the units. The generation facilities are dispatched sparingly and operate primarily as peaking units. As such, the individual units incur a relatively large City of Dover, Delaware 3-5 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment number of starts per year and low annual capacity factor. Table 3-3 summarizes the major FY 2013 operating statistics. The large amount of time that units are not operating allows for maintenance and repair of the units. As a result, the FY 2013 overall equivalent availability factor for the generation facilities averaged 58.99 percent. Low net capacity factors are partially offset by PJM capacity credits. In FY 2013, $14.3 million of PJM capacity credits helped cover the fixed operating and maintenance costs of the Electric System. PJM capacity credits are expected to continue to provide similar benefits in FY 2014 and beyond. 3.2.1.6 Electronic Management System Maintenance activities are organized, planned, and managed using MP2tm by CMMS Data Group, a computer-based management system. All three major categories of maintenance activities (corrective, preventative, and predictive) are electronically managed by MP2tm.

A supervisor reviews the request, turns it into a work order, and assigns a priority according to a predetermined categorization. The work order is planned, parts are ordered, and then the work order is assigned to an operator or maintenance technician for completion once the material has been received. City of Dover, Delaware 3-6 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment This system is also used to manage and track preventative maintenance activities that follow a schedule. Changing filters, and turning on and off heat tracing are examples of preventative maintenance. Predictive maintenance activities practiced include oil analyses, vibration testing, and infrared surveys. Portable vibration testing equipment is used at the Stations to improve the frequency of and capabilities to trouble- shoot rotating equipment. The technology allows personnel to identify problems and take corrective actions before equipment failure occurs. 3.2.1.7 Electric Generation Improvements The following describes completed, on-going, and planned improvements to the City’s generation assets: Recently Completed:  DOE Grant - Photovoltaic Panels  McKee Run & VanSant Arc Flash  McKee Run Driveway Repaving  Unit 3 Fire Protection System  Unit 3 Cooling Tower Life Extension  Unit 1 Outage FY 2011  Unit 2 - Boiler Inspection & Repair  VanSant CT Mark IV Upgrades  Work Management Software Replacement  Unit 3 - Gas Modification  Unit 3 Air Heater Expansion Joint  Units 1 and 2 Control Modifications  Units 1 and 2 Stack Repairs Inspection  Unit 3 - Stack Repairs Inspection  Unit 3 Boiler Air Heater  Unit 3 FD and ID Fan Controller Upgrade  Unit 3 DCS Computers & Software Upgrades  Units 1 and 2 Component Repairs  VanSant Component Replacements  Unit 3 Auxiliary System Components  Industrial Wastewater Discharge System  Unit 3 Air Heater Expansion Joint  Unit 3 Generator Repairs City of Dover, Delaware 3-7 Burns & McDonnell

Burns & McDonnell made no internal assessments of equipment during the facility tour. City of Dover, Delaware 3-8 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment 3.2.1.9 Steam Turbines/Generators The steam turbines and generators for VanSant and McKee Run Units 1 and 2 were reported to be in satisfactory condition with no major problems. McKee Run Unit 3 turning gear engagement problems were reported in the summer 2010 outage report and repairs were completed in FY 2012. XL Insurance completes inspections of the Electric Division production facilities on an annual basis. After each inspection the insurance provider issues a report detailing its risk reduction recommendations. A recommendation following the FY 2011 inspection addressed safety. XL Insurance recommended the installation of a permanent fire protection system for the turbine generator bearings at McKee Run. The City completed the installation of the system in FY 2011 for Unit 3. The City and XL Insurance agree that portable foam generating carts are sufficient fire protection for Units 1 and 2, due to their light use. For FY 2012, Unit 1 conducted turbine generator checks and found a bearing steam seal leak. Steam seals were removed and sent out for refurbishment by Siemens Energy Services during the fall 2012 outage. Bearing was inspected and checked for wear. Bearing did have some wear and did not meet acceptable tolerance, so it was sent out for refurbishment by Fusion Babbiting. Turbine condition assessment was conducted during the fall outage and the Units were found to be in satisfactory working condition. For Spring 2013, an extensive inspection and testing was performed on Unit 3’s turbine and generator. The inspection showed signs of seam oil, hydrogen, and busing box leakages. All issues were fixed and brought to acceptable operating standards. NAES Instrument, Control and Electrical (IC&E) Technicians completed four recommended General Electric Technical Information Letters (TIL) projects for VanSant Unit 11 in both spring and fall 2013 outages as shown below: 1. Annual TIL 1004-2R1 (IGV’s and first stage corrosion/pitting inspection) 2. Annual TIL 1068-2R1 (IGV’s bushing inspection) 3. Annual TIL 1132-2 (IGV thrust washer corrosion inspection) 4. Annual TIL 1049-2R1 (Inspect and measure dovetail material loss) During the fall 2013 outage, NAES mechanics installed new hand wheel throttle valve mechanical parts. Thereafter, the IC&E installed a portable vacuum pump to the Unit 1 turbine to simulate vacuum. The turbine was reset and the throttle valve was closed. The throttle valve was then fully opened with no issues and the handle was freewheeling. City of Dover, Delaware 3-9 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment 3.2.1.10 Boilers and Auxiliaries Boiler inspections are conducted every year on each of the boilers. The annual inspections typically include the inspection and cleaning of the major boiler components, including the mud and steam drums, the forced draft and induced draft fans, the windbox, condenser water box, condenser tubes, hotwell, air preheater components, and safety valves. In FY 2011, the outlet duct expansion joint was replaced on Unit 3. Operations removed the appropriate insulation and lagging to prepare the duct. The Electric Division contracted Apex to complete the installation the equipment. A complete seam weld was utilized to seal the joint and the job site was cleaned. No additional problems with this joint developed in FY 2012. In FY 2012, several principle changes were made on the generating system’s boiler and auxiliary units at McKee Run. New beck drives were installed on Unit 3 induced draft and forced draft fans. Also, sector plates and seals were replaced in the Unit 3 air heater. Following its FY 2010 annual inspection of the production facilities, XL Insurance recommended the City implement a program that tracks annual hot and cold settings of hangers in the steam, reheat, feedwater and boiler systems. In FY 2011 and FY 2012, the City met the recommendation by implementing a program that will examine the high energy piping systems on a five-year basis, beginning in 2014. During FY 2013 inspections, no major issues were found within the Unit 1 or Unit 2 boiler. Unit 3 had an issue during the startup of the boiler while attempting to obtain a boiler purge. The issue was fixed by replacing a Gas Fuel Trip Relay. Waterwall tubing sections were replaced within Unit 3’s A-2 burner. 3.2.1.11 Station Cooling Water Systems The Station has split cooling water systems with one system serving Unit 1 and Unit 2 and a separate system serving Unit 3. Projectile tube cleaning was completed on the Unit 1 and Unit 2 condensers during the spring FY 2011 outage. All the tubes in each unit were cleaned utilizing the scraper blade plug method. Samples were taken from the tube cleanings and retained for inspection. No leaks were detected in the expansion joint or condenser tubes. Each condenser box was cleaned. Projectile tube cleaning was last completed in the 1980’s. The cooling water systems are reported to be sufficiently sized and in satisfactory condition, with no major issues reported at the time of this Report. 3.2.1.12 Fuel Handling Systems Natural gas is delivered to the Station via a 4-inch pipeline for Unit 1 and Unit 2 and in a 10-inch diameter pipeline for Unit 3. No. 2 fuel oil is delivered to the Station by truck and unloaded into tanks. City of Dover, Delaware 3-10 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment Forwarding pumps deliver the fuel oil to each of the units. No major fuel projects were reported to be completed in FY 2012. 3.2.1.13 Water Treatment/Steam Purity Quality control parameters for boiler feed-water, internal boiler water, cooling tower water, and steam purity are checked at a minimum of twice per day when systems are operating. Results are recorded and graphically compared to control limits. Adjustments are then made as required. Boiler feed water is treated city water (well water from the City) using a regenerative ion resin demineralizer system, along with deaeration for oxygen control. Boilers 1 and 2 use a coordinated phosphate control for boiler internal purity control and Boiler 3 uses a balanced trisodium phosphate and disodium phosphate within a narrow pH range. A deep-bored water well was installed to provide water in addition to the City supplied water. City water has a high chlorine level which may exceed the Station permitted limits. By combining City water with the well water, the chlorine levels can be maintained at the permitted limits. Water for cooling tower makeup is also obtained from City water. The primary control parameter is silica concentration. Blow down is adjusted as required to maintain control. The City is currently undergoing the approval process with Kent County to obtain an integrated waste water permit to be able to discharge cooling water to the sewer system. No major water treatment issues were reported at the time of this Report. Steam purity is not continuously monitored. Samples are taken twice daily and tested for pH, conductivity, and silica. There have not been any problems with steam purity. Annual inspections of the boiler drums and separation internals have verified that these systems are intact and operating properly. Following its FY 2010 annual inspection of the production facilities, XL Insurance recommended the City implement lay-up procedures to protect water systems from corrosion. In FY 2011 and FY 2012, NAES worked to update plant procedures to conform to best practices/OSHA standards. In FY 2012, the station did not experience any internal corrosion related failures, steam path deposits, or excessive condenser fouling. NALCO provides water treatment consulting services and chemicals. A representative visits the Station periodically to review test data and check chemical usage rates. No major issues were reported at the time of this Report. 3.2.1.14 Station Electrical Systems Overall, Station electrical systems and transformers are considered to be in satisfactory condition. A condition assessment of the generation facilities’ transformers was conducted in February 2011. Oil inspections and analyses were conducted. The inspector recommended that normal operation continue for City of Dover, Delaware 3-11 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment all the transformers at the plant. Oil sampling is now completed twice per year on the generator step-up transformers (GSUs). All plant transformers are examined annually. Following its FY 2008 annual inspection of the production facilities, XL Insurance recommended the City build blast walls around transformers at the plant. In FY 2011, the City continued to research blast wall protection. Fire barrier walls were installed between the Unit 1 and 2 auxiliary transformers and the Unit 3 start-up transformer. Based on the 2012 XL Insurance annual inspection, there is still no sprinkler protection for GSU’s 1-3. 3.2.1.15 Station Control Systems Unit 1 and Unit 2 controls are electro-pneumatic and Unit 3 controls are a distributed control system (DCS). During the March FY 2011 spring outage, a controls upgrade was completed at McKee Run Units 1 and 2. The new devices control igniters, pilots and shut down main fuel to protect the boiler. The project included the installation of new limit switches on main gas, pilot gas, and oil supply/return valves. The controls upgrades help the system meet national fire protection codes. Following its 2007 annual inspection of the production facilities, XL Insurance recommended the City seal openings in fire barriers through which cables pass. The City has worked each year since to make progress on sealing openings in fire barriers. The City completed sealing the rest of the openings as part of its boiler controls and control room upgrades in 2013. In general, the station control systems are considered to be in satisfactory condition. The Unit 1 and Unit 2 control systems are outdated but perform satisfactorily. All relays have recently been inspected at both McKee Run and VanSant for North American Electric Reliability Corporation, PJM Interconnection and Mid-Atlantic Area Council compliance. The electro hydraulic control system was modified to become a primary/primary system in 2013. In 2013 additional control wiring was installed to upgrade the Unit 1 and Unit 2 gas control system. No major controls issues were reported at the time of this Report. 3.2.1.16 General Facilities No major projects or improvements were completed to the General Facilities in FY 2013 other than routine maintenance and repairs. In general, the station facilities appeared clean and well maintained during the site visit. 3.2.1.17 VanSant Generating Station In general, the unit is operated infrequently, but is well maintained. Although the station is only manned when operating, an operator performs a twice daily walk through with a checklist of items to review and City of Dover, Delaware 3-12 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment the results are logged. The annual overhaul and inspections were conducted at VanSant during FY 2013. No major problems were found. The VanSant unit has the capability of black starts. The unit has the capability of remote control; however, the unit is not permitted for remote control. XL Insurance completes inspections of the Electric Division production facilities on an annual basis. After each inspection the insurance provider issues a report detailing its risk reduction recommendations. The lone recommendation for VanSant following the FY 2012 inspection addressed safety. XL Insurance recommended the installation of gas detection equipment at the plant. A gas detection system has been installed. The gas detectors will activate the fire suppression system and alarm to the central control system. No other major repairs or upgrades were made at VanSant in FY 2013. 3.3 Transmission and Distribution Systems On April 17, 2014, Mr. Ted Kelly visited the City to collect information and to observe the City transmission and distribution system, as operated and maintained by the Electric Division. Mr. Bill Hewlett provided information related to the transmission and distribution system. Mr. Hewlett also led a tour of the electric transmission and distribution system. The Electric Division distributes power to its customers by a network of transmission lines, distribution substations, and distribution lines. The transmission lines are rated at 69 kV and are connected to fifteen distribution substations located throughout the service area. The distribution substations reduce the power from transmission voltages to the primary distribution voltages of 12 kV to facilitate distribution of electric power to customers. 3.3.1 Safety Mr. Hewlett reported to Burns & McDonnell that there were no reportable injuries or lost workdays in FY 2013. 3.3.2 System Reliability The Electric Division provides for reliability of its distribution system by configuring a majority of its distribution circuits in primary open loop arrangements, improving existing circuits, and installing adequate substation transformer capacity. Normal transformer and line loading are limited to provide sufficient margin to convey firm power requirements during an emergency or a switching operation, or for maintenance. City of Dover, Delaware 3-13 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment 3.3.3 Power Quality The Electric Division does not have any significant power quality problems. The overall power factor for the Electric System decreased from 99.86 percent in FY 2012 to 98.43 percent in FY 2013. Power transformers are equipped with load tap changers that regulate bus voltages at the distribution substations. Distribution transformers are equipped with no-load taps to make voltage adjustments. There are capacitors and voltage regulators on the Electric System that control voltage and vars on the portion of the system furthest away from the current source and generation. The system operators monitor the power factor closely and turn on capacitors or adjust the generation to compensate for low power factors. 3.3.4 Operations and Maintenance The Electric Division has a SCADA system that is monitored continuously for any problems that may arise in the Electric System. The main control room has two system operator desks and a large screen where system operating information is displayed. System operators can monitor the Electric System operation, such as voltage levels, current flows, etc. and make necessary adjustments as problems arise. The systems operators have received some PJM training, but are not required to be certified as Delmarva Power is the controlling agency. Loading on substation transformers used for an emergency, a switching operation, or maintenance is limited to 120 percent of the rated capacity, followed by a twelve-hour cool-down period. The Electric Division has eight line crews to work on the system. Four crews are responsible for overhead lines, four crews are responsible for underground lines, and one crew is responsible for maintenance. The primary responsibilities of the eight line crews are installation of new service connections and construction of new lines. The trouble crew maintains the street lights, repairs underground services and is the first responder to outages. Tree trimming is contracted out and is no longer performed by the Electrical Division; however, performance of the contractor is monitored by the Line Crew Superintendent. The Substation/Relay Maintenance Division is responsible for operation and maintenance of the substations and associated equipment. Visual inspections of substations, associated equipment, trip counter checks and battery systems checks are performed regularly. The Substation/Relay Maintenance Division is also responsible for contractor oversight during annual transformer condition assessments. TJ/H2b Analytical Services completed the annual transformer condition assessments in February 2011. No abnormal gas was indicated and since the oil condition was within acceptable parameters, TJ/H2b recommended the continuation of normal operation. The City has a contract with an environmental City of Dover, Delaware 3-14 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Electric System Overview and Assessment consultant to check each substation for oil leaks and to provide instruction on cleaning up in the event of an oil spill. The City contracts with an outside firm to inspect and chemically treat each wood pole in the Electric System every ten years. This is accomplished by awarding a five-year contract to spread out the expenses. Pole treatments were completed in May of 2013. Dover treated and inspected over 760 poles during 2013, of which, only one pole was rejected providing a 99.9% pass rate. 3.3.5 Design Standards and Specifications The Electric Division designs the transmission and distribution circuits and some substation upgrades in conformance with national safety standards. Other substation and transmission design is contracted to Pike Electric, Inc. The underground distribution design utilizes road or alley front access construction. This design means the electrical equipment, such as transformers and underground cable, are installed beside the road instead of behind houses or buildings. The advantage of front access construction is the accessibility for maintenance and repairs to cable and electric equipment. The underground cables are installed in polymerized vinyl chloride pipe for added protection and for easy cable replacement. The Electric Division installs jacketed, concentric cable that is rated at 15 kV, with 133 percent ethylene propylene rubber insulation. The standard overhead distribution design utilizes a flat construction with a single cross-arm and insulators on 45-foot class 2 poles. Typically all electrical equipment locations have ground rods installed with measured readings of 25 ohms or less. The substation design is generally a low-profile rigid bus design. The circuit breakers are SF6 gas-filled and the relays are microprocessor based with SCADA control and monitoring. 3.3.6 Transmission and Distribution Capital Improvements The following describes completed, on-going, and planned improvements to the City’s transmission and distribution assets: Recently Completed:  69-kV Feeders 3 and 4  Replacement of 69-kV Breakers & Design  Governors Avenue Rebuild City of Dover, Delaware 3-15 Burns & McDonnell

Bill Hewlett provided a tour of the substations with Ted Kelly on April 17, 2014. The Frazier Substation was rebuilt last year; an additional 3 breaker system was added for a 69 kV bus. The General Scott Substation has relatively new breakers, and the controls are scheduled to be upgraded in FY 2014 or 2015. Horsepond Substation is currently being rebuilt. Work started in late February and scheduled to be back in service by June, 2014. Conductor line was replaced at the Savannah and White Oak Substation areas. The City’s in the process of replacing conductor throughout the entire 69 kV system. Moving forward, a greater portion of the system will be converted from overhead to underground distribution. 3.4 Conclusions Based on statements and information provided, as well as the observations and reviews performed, it is the opinion of Burns & McDonnell that the City’s power generation facilities are being operated and maintained consistent with accepted electric utility practice in the United States. In general, the performance, operation, maintenance, staff, planning, and training aspects for the McKee Run and VanSant stations were found to be above average. Specifically, the generation facilities have demonstrated a high level of availability despite the dispatching of the units primarily for peak demand. It is the opinion of Burns & McDonnell that the design, construction, operation and maintenance of the City’s electric transmission and distribution system and the associated facilities are consistent with current generally accepted electric utility standards. In completing Annual Engineering Consultant’s Reports over the past several years, Burns & McDonnell has observed that the City has made appropriate system upgrades and improvements. The City and the Electric Division are proactive in preventative maintenance and expansion of the Electric System before problems arise. City of Dover, Delaware 3-18 Burns & McDonnell

4.0 – FINANCIAL ASSESSMENT

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Financial Assessment 4.0 FINANCIAL ASSESSMENT A review of the financial results of the Electric System for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, is provided below. 4.1 Financial Results The total revenue of the Electric Division during FY 2013 included revenue from charges for electric service, as well as miscellaneous revenues from items such as rents, penalties, reconnection fees, and development fees. On Table 4-4, revenues were compared to the Electric Division’s costs of providing services to its customers to determine whether the financial requirements of the Electric Division were met. 4.1.1 Required Revenue Level The level of revenues required from the retail electric rates for the Electric Division was determined through the analysis of the financial results and net income or net margins for the most recent fiscal year. The City of Dover, Delaware Resolution Authorizing and Securing Electric Revenue Bonds, adopted December 23, 1985 requires that the Electric Division maintain a debt service coverage ratio of 1.25. The following is an excerpt from Section 502(c) of the resolution. “(c) The total amount of the Revenues of the Electric System during the preceding fiscal year shall have been not less than the total of the following: (3) The Current Expenses of the Electric System during the current fiscal years shown by the Annual Budget . . . for such fiscal year, and (4) One hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the maximum amount of the Principal and Interest Requirements for any fiscal year thereafter on account of all bonds then Outstanding under the provisions of this Resolution. The City further covenants that, from time to time and as often as it shall appear necessary, it will adjust the electric rates as may be necessary or proper so that the revenues of the Electric System in each fiscal year will not be less than the total of the amounts set forth in subdivision (c) of this section.” 4.1.2 Electric Rates Customers of the Electric Division are charged for the electric service based on rate schedules, tariffs, or contracts that reflect the costs to the Electric Division of providing that service. For purposes of setting City of Dover, Delaware 4-1 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Financial Assessment electric rates, customers with similar load and service characteristics should be placed in the same rate classification. A comprehensive cost-of-service and rate design study was completed in 2006 and subsequent rate analyses were completed in 2007 and 2008 to examine revenue requirements and revenue generation. Specifically, the 2006 rate study was conducted to address increased costs associated with a new power supply contract that became effective on July 1, 2006. The rate study recommended combining a number of rate classes and implementing rate increases on July 1, 2006. The 2006 rate study also recommended an additional increase be implemented on January 1, 2007 to cover increased costs associated with operating the generating station. The 2007 and 2008 rate analyses re-examined Electric Division revenues and expenses and recognized additional revisions to power supply costs. As a result of these analyses, additional rate increases were implemented on July 1, 2007 and July 1, 2008. The City retained Burns & McDonnell to conduct cost-of-service and rate design study in 2012 followed by an update in 2013. The 2012 study examined revenue adequacy, revenue responsibility, and revenue recovery for the Electric Division. It scrutinized customer classes and proposed adjustments for demand rate components and corresponding changes to energy charges. In May 2013, the City retained Burns & McDonnell to incorporate updated power supply cost projections, and other updates, into the model it developed as part of the 2012 Study. The current rate classes are listed below.  Residential  Small Commercial (1 Phase, 3 Phase, 1 Phase Heating, Church, and Municipal)  Medium Commercial (1 Phase & 3 Phase)  Large Commercial (3 Phase with Reactive Metering)  Primary  Transmission  Outdoor Development Lighting  Private Outdoor Lighting 4.1.3 Operating Results Table 4-1 presents a summary of the annual energy sales, the average monthly number of customer accounts, and the annual average kilowatt-hour (kWh) energy per customer of the Electric Division for FY 2011 through FY 2013. Annual energy sales decreased in FY 2012 to 710.3 GWh, a decrease of 3.2 percent from 734.1 GWh in FY 2011. Energy sales increased to 723.1 GWh in FY 2013, a 1.8 percent increase from FY 2012.

The Electric Division purchased power from the PJM Interconnection marketplace through its Energy Manager, TEA. The cost of non-generated power includes energy and demand costs, power supply management expense, PJM charges and credits, generation fuels cost, and capacity charges and credits. The significance of power supply cost to the Electric Division is illustrated in Table 4-3. The top portion of the Table shows net operating revenue as the difference between total revenues generated by the rates and the cost of power supply.2 The ratios of power supply cost to sales revenues were calculated for FY 2011 through FY 2013. As illustrated, the Electric Division’s power supply cost as a percentage of rate revenue increased from 64.1 percent in FY 2012 to 63.0 percent in FY 2013. 2 For the purposes of this Report, the phrase “Power Supply” refers to the sum of the costs of power purchased and power generated. This includes plant costs and the cost of fuel. Power Supply also includes any expenses in the CIP Fund that are not capital expenses. The phrase “Purchased Power” refers only to the cost of power purchased from the market and other directly associated costs. City of Dover, Delaware 4-4 Burns & McDonnell

Therefore, the revenues generated by the current electric rates have been sufficient to meet the applicable covenants of the Resolution. Section 502 of the Resolution requires that the annual debt service used in evaluating the revenues is to be the maximum amount for any fiscal year thereafter. Table 4-6 presents the annual totals of principal and interest amounts due on bonds currently outstanding. The calculation of the debt service coverage ratio in Table 4-5 is based on the total maximum debt service expense in any fiscal year. The FY 2013 calculation was based on the total FY 2016 debt service expense of $3,401,954. 4.2 Status of Revenue Bonds At the end of FY 2013, the City had two series of outstanding electric revenue bonds that were issued pursuant to the Resolution. On July 1, 2008, the City issued $22,200,000 in Electric Revenue Bonds (2008 Bonds). The proceeds from the sale of the 2008 Bonds were used (i) to finance or reimburse the City of Dover, Delaware 4-7 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Financial Assessment City for improvements to the City’s electric system; (ii) to fund a Debt Service Reserve Fund; and (4) to pay the costs of issuance of the 2008 Bonds. On November 17, 2010, the City issued $8,810,000 of Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds (Series 2010). The proceeds from the sale of the Series 2010 Bonds were used (i) to refund the Series 2004 Bonds, and (ii) to pay the costs of issuance of the Series 2010 Bonds. The non-taxable Series 2010 Bonds received an underlying rating of Aa2 by Moody’s Investors Services and an underlying rating of A+ by Fitch Ratings. Table 4-6 illustrates the debt service schedule for the Series 2008 and 2010 Bonds. The principal and interest and the annual total are shown for each series of bonds. At the time of issuance of the Series 2010 Bonds, the combined outstanding principal balance for both series of bonds was $30,280,000.

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Financial Assessment Electric Revenue Fund  Insurance Reserve Account  Contingency Reserve Account  Electric Rate Stabilization Reserve Account  Interest and Sinking Account Electric Improvement & Extension Fund  Depreciation Reserve Account  Future Capacity Reserve Account The following are descriptions of each Fund, their respective accounts and their purposes. 4.4.1 Electric Revenue Fund The Electric Revenue Fund was established in Section 503 of the Resolution. All revenues are to be deposited into the Electric Revenue Fund when received. Current expenses are to be paid and other accounts are to be maintained from the Electric Revenue Fund. Moneys are transferred from the Electric Revenue Fund to the Electric Rate Stabilization Reserve Account, the Interest and Sinking Account, the I&E Fund, the Depreciation Reserve Account, and the Future Capacity Reserve Account. 4.4.1.1 Insurance Reserve Account The Insurance Reserve Account was established by the City to fund insurance deductibles in the event of loss(es) covered by the City’s insurance policies then in effect. The target minimum balance in the Insurance Reserve is $350,000. The reserve balance at the end of FY 2013 was $733,043. Dover will be proposing raising the minimum balance from $350,000 to $750,000 per insurance carrier recommendation in order to reduce premiums. This proposal will be taken to City Council in 2014. 4.4.1.2 Contingency Reserve Account The Contingency Reserve Account was established by the City in FY 2003 to provide for unplanned expenditures that may not be avoidable. The City’s Financial Policies require that a minimum balance be maintained in the Contingency Reserve Account equal to 1.0 percent of the current year revenues for the Electric Revenue Fund. The FY 2013 year-end balance was $814,236, which is equal to 0.92 percent of the FY 2013 revenues for the Electric Revenue Fund. City of Dover, Delaware 4-11 Burns & McDonnell

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Financial Assessment 4.4.1.3 Electric Rate Stabilization Account The Electric Rate Stabilization Reserve Account was established in FY 2005 to offset the costs of the power cost adjustment to the customers of Dover. The account’s target balance is a minimum of 3.0 percent, not to exceed 10.0 percent, of purchase power cost in any given year. Any excess of this amount will be refunded to customers in future years by reducing the rate of the power cost adjustment. The account’s FY 2013 end-of-year balance was $17,382,124, which was 31.2 percent of the FY 2013 purchased power cost. 4.4.1.4 Interest and Sinking Account The Interest and Sinking Account was established in Section 507 of the Resolution. This account consists of two restricted accounts: the Bond Service account and the Reserve Account. The Bond Service Account is funded with equal monthly transfers from the Electric Revenue Fund such that the balance, as of each payment date for interest or for principal and interest, will be equal to the amount of the payment due. The payments of principal and interest due on bonds are made from the Bond Service Account. The Reserve Account is funded by transfers from the Electric Revenue Fund, as necessary, to maintain a balance equal to the maximum combined principal and interest for any future fiscal year through the life of all bonds then outstanding. Moneys in the Reserve Account are used for paying interest on and principal of bonds when the balance in the Bond Service Account is insufficient for making those payments. Excess moneys in the Reserve Account are also used towards paying current interest payments. The total amount in the Restricted Accounts for the 2008 and 2010 bonds as of June 30, 2013, was $3,522,833. 4.4.2 Electric Improvement and Extension Fund The I&E Fund was established in Section 507 of the Resolution. Funds are added to the I&E Fund from the Electric Revenue Fund to the extent that the amount of funds available from the Electric Revenue Fund exceeds the total of the amounts required to be added to the Interest and Sinking Account. The I&E Fund also receives additional funding from the Depreciation Reserve Account, the Future Capacity Reserve Account, and from development receipts. Section 510 of the Resolution indicates that, except for certain situations, moneys held in the I&E Fund are to be used only for payment of costs of unusual maintenance or repairs, renewals or replacements, obtaining or replacing equipment, constructing extensions, additions, or improvements, and engineering expenses related to the foregoing activities. 4.4.2.1 Depreciation Reserve Account The Depreciation Reserve Account represents moneys that have been set aside for the sole purpose of funding renewals and replacements of the Electric System as components or equipment wear out, City of Dover, Delaware 4-12 Burns & McDonnell

Transfers from the Electric Revenue Fund and investment earnings are the only sources of additional moneys for the Depreciation Reserve Account. Transfers to the I&E Fund are made as necessary to fund capital projects. The target appropriation for the Depreciation Reserve Account each year is the excess of depreciation expense for the year over the amount of principal included in debt service payments made during the year. The reserve balance at the end of FY 2013 was $9,855,704. 4.4.2.2 Future Capacity Reserve Account The Future Capacity Reserve Account was established to set aside and accumulate funds from the Electric Revenue Fund for use in evaluating and pursuing activities related to the Electric Division’s alternatives for power supply resources for future demand for electricity. The original target balance for this reserve was $5,000,000. The reserve balance at the end of FY 2013 was $10,004,190.

5.0 – CONCLUSIONS

2014 Engineering Consultant’s Report Conclusions 5.0 CONCLUSIONS In the preparation of this Engineering Consultant’s Report, Burns & McDonnell completed assessments of the electric generating stations and the transmission and distribution system of the City Electric Division. The investigations included interviews, observations, and reviews of FY 2013 expenditures and FY 2014 budgets. In addition, an analysis of the balances of the Improvement and Extension Fund and other funds benefiting the Electric Division was performed. Burns & McDonnell also reviewed the adequacy of the revenues provided by the current retail rates in relation to the requirements of the City of Dover, Delaware Resolution Authorizing and Securing Electric Revenue Bonds, adopted December 23, 1985. A high level assessment of the City’s insurance coverage related to the Electric Division was also completed. Based on these reviews and assessments, it is Burns & McDonnell’s opinion that: 1. The City’s power generation facilities are being operated and maintained consistent with accepted electric utility practice in the United States. 2. The design, construction, operation, and maintenance of the City's electric transmission and distribution system and the associated facilities are consistent with current generally accepted electric utility standards and over the past few years. The system has been upgraded in order to improve operation and service to customers. 3. The Electric Division capital projects included in the City’s Capital Investment Plan and the FY 2014 Operating Budget are necessary and should provide improved reliability and power quality for the Electric System. 4. The balances as of June 30, 2013 for the various reserve funds maintained by the City for the Electric Division appear to be sufficient for their defined purposes. 5. The insurance coverage in full force and affect as maintained by the City related to the various assets of the Electric Division appears to satisfy the requirements of Section 706 of the Resolution. 6. The electric revenues generated by the City’s current retail rates are more than sufficient to fulfill the debt service coverage requirement defined in Section 502(c) of the Resolution.

TABLE OF CONTENTS I. Executive Summary 1 II. Budget Report 12 III. Operations Management 15 IV. Appendix 29 i

I. Executive Summary A. Power Supply Summary: Overall Power Supply costs were $267,987 under budget due to lower hedge prices and a prior month adjustment which lowered energy costs. Dover’s budgeted cost for all power supply (capacity AND energy) was $83.79/MWh. The actual cost of all power supply (capacity AND energy) was $80.06/MWh. The cost of energy alone was $42.63/MWh, versus a budgeted energy cost of $49.20. Dover’s hedge purchases totaled 41,280 MWh, which was 79% of the actual load. The budgeted hedge purchase totaled 26,720, which was 50% of the budgeted load. Dover’s power purchases from hedge transactions totaled $1,977,556. Purchases from PJM (energy and fees) totaled $593,382 which included DA Energy purchases totaling $154,447 and Reactive Services Charges totaling $116,655. Dover’s total load was 52,517 MWh versus a forecasted load of 53,377 MWh. Dover’s planned energy purchase from the SunPark solar installation was 2,100 MWh. Dover’s actual energy purchase from the SunPark installation was 1,999 MWh. 1

The DCA instructed EPA to continue 1 Per CAIR, starting in 2009, NOx emissions are governed by a seasonal and annual program. 2 Under CAIR, pre-CAIR SO2 allowances are retired at a rate of 2 allowances for each ton emitted. It is assumed that pre-CAIR allowances will be retired before CAIR allowances. 5

administering the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR). EPA appealed the DCA ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court, which heard arguments on December 10th, 2013. On April 29th, 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the DCA opinion; however it did not immediately reinstate CSAPR. It sent the rule back to the DCA for further action consistent with the Supreme Court’s opinion. EPA will continue to administer CAIR until the DCA takes action and EPA is able to respond. Market liquidity for CAIR allowances continues to be low, with few transactions occurring. The following table shows estimated values for Dover’s banked allowances, based on settlement prices on the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE).

The City of Dover must comply with RGGI by surrendering carbon dioxide (CO2) allowances pursuant to the State of Delaware’s laws (Title 7, Chapter 60, Sub-Title II-A). Delaware has elected a combined emissions allowance allocation/auction mechanism for RGGI, in which 40% of CO2 allowances were allocated to sources for 2009, declining by 8% per year so that by 2014, all CO2 allowances are auctioned. Dover had more than a sufficient number of RGGI allowances allocated to it to cover its requirements through the first compliance period (calendar years 2009-2011). Any unused allowances are carried over (“banked”) for subsequent years. The table below shows RGGI allowance allocations, deductions and the cumulative balance by year (column 8). 6

The Cumulative Balance (column 8) – aka “Banked Allowances”) can be utilized for generation in 2014 and future years. Once the banked allowances have been fully utilized, Dover will be required to purchase RGGI allowances through the auctions or through over-the-counter markets. Assuming that Dover does not sell any banked allowances, it will be able to maintain a positive balance through 2016–2025, depending on actual annual energy production in 2012 and beyond. On February 7, 2013, RGGI proposed changes to its Model Rule. The Delaware Department of Natural Resources published the final rule on December 1, 2013 the Delaware Register of Regulations with an effective date of December 11, 20134. The new RGGI rule includes a provision which eliminates some portion of banked allowances in future years. Dover could elect to sell all or a portion of its banked allowances now and re-acquire allowances at a later date; however TEA is currently of the opinion that Dover will be better off retaining its banked allowances for use during future compliance years. The most recent RGGI auction occurred on March 5th, 2014; the auction cleared at $4.00/ton. The next auction will occur on June 4th, 2014. RGGI futures settlement prices posted on Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) on May 16th, 2014 ranged from $4.45 to $4.70/ton, depending settlement month and vintage. Based on the May 16th, 2014 3 Includes Q3 2013 allocations of 7,846,757 for McKee Run and 1,424,677 for VanSant. 4 http://regulations.delaware.gov/register/december2013/final/17%20DE%20Reg%20644%2012-01-13.pdf 7

ICE for June, 2014, Vintage 2013 ($4.47/ton), the value of Dover’s existing 114,634 ton RGGI allowance bank is $512,414. Renewable Energy Certificates Dover owns two photovoltaic systems totaling 15 kW, consisting of (one 5 kW unit at the Utilities Administration Building and two 5 kW units at the McKee Run generating station. Dover also receives solar energy produced by the 10 MW Dover Sun Park which is owned by White Oak Solar Energy, LLC. In addition to the all of the physical energy produced by the Sun Park, Dover receives 15% of Sun Park’s SRECS. Through the end of February 2014, Dover has accumulated a total of 7,004 SRECS from these renewable energy resources. The nearest viable market for Dover’s SRECs is Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania’s April 15, 2014 SREC auction cleared separately for 2012/2013 through 2013/2014 vintage allowances. Clearing prices and Dover’s SREC market value estimate are shown in the table below.

Once Dover has an approved RPS in place, it may be required to retire a portion of its current SREC balance for compliance in the 2012/13 future compliance year. Any remaining SRECs could be used for the 2013/14 compliance year. NOTE: SRECs in both Delaware and Pennsylvania expire without value after 3 years. Dover currently has thirteen (13) 2010/2011. Based on a recent discussion with DEMEC staff, this expiration provision is not likely to be of concern within the current compliance year. If Dover has not accumulated adequate non-solar RECs, it will need to acquire some from DEMEC for the 2013/2014 compliance year. DEMEC has told TEA that it will likely have sufficient non-solar RECs for Dover’s requirements. Dover can purchase and retire a portion of these non-solar RECs during the current compliance and fiscal years, 8

or it can defer acquisition until the June – August, 2014 time frame, after the exact amount of non-solar REC requirements is known. D. Operations Management Summary: During the month of April, there were no restricted work days or lost time accidents. The facility has now gone 3 years and 196 days (1,291 days) through April, 2014 without an OSHA Recordable Accident or a Lost Time reportable accident.

Variance Analysis: Power Supply  Dover consumed 860 MWh less than forecast for the month.  PJM energy costs were lower than expected as below budget market prices occurred during the month. Hedged costs were higher than forecasted due to an additional layering in of hedges. PJM Fees were higher than budget.  Hedges were placed at below budget levels and lower market prices offset the higher fees.

The variance was due to the following: PERSONNEL EXPENSES – A favorable monthly variance of $13,443 was due to having a less overtime and corresponding Labor Burdens. Overtime reduction resulted from not filling shifts to full complement where vacancies due to flex time occurred. MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES EXPENSES- An unfavorable monthly variance of $741 was due to the timing of the water – sewer invoices. There were two (2) months invoiced during the billing period for April. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES – An unfavorable monthly variance of $62,010 due primarily to the timing of electricity monthly invoices and invoices for operator training that were originally budgeted in May. There were two (2) months of electricity costs invoiced during the billing period for April. The forecasted expenses for this fiscal year are $5,809,593 expensed versus an approved budget of $6,015,800 thereby realizing a 96.57% expenditure rate. 18
