DEC is a member of Old Dominion Electric Cooperative (ODEC) and it is through this cooperative that
they procure their energy. ODEC currently owns over 400 Mw from a coal fired power plant and is in
the process of constructing another plant. While the current unit provides a less expensive source of
energy, EPA recently released regulations that may require extensive upgrading to meet the new
emission requirements. ODEC also owns over 200 Mw of the North Anna nuclear power plant and again
currently provides attractive energy costs but in light of the recent events extensive capital
improvements may be required to continue the operation of the plant. Additionally, ODEC is in the
process of permitting the Cypress Creek Power Station in Dendron, VA, which currently is envisioned as
a 1,500 Mw coal fired power plant. Again, the financial and environmental impact of the project is
unknown, but the external regulations could drive these costs up as well. Lastly, Northern Virginia
Electric Cooperative recently withdrew its membership from ODEC and stated that they wanted “…the
opportunity to directly manage the risks associated with power supply…”

EXCERPT - UTILITY COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES OF JUNE 27, 2011
Informational Presentation by Delaware Electric Cooperative on the Pros and Cons of Their
Purchase of the City of Dover Electric System
Mr. Bonar advised members that they would be considering the possibility of an outside entity taking
over the operation of the City of Dover Electric Department. He indicated that the Delaware Electric
Cooperative (DEC) had expressed interest in pursuing this option. Mr. Bonar introduced
Mr. J. William Andrew, President and CEO of DEC.
Mr. Andrew stated that he was contacted by Mr. Bonar approximately two (2) weeks ago requesting
that the Co-op present information regarding the possibility of DEC purchasing the City of Dover
Electric System. He stated that DEC evaluated public information and toured the City of Dover
Electric System and determined that it was an excellent system.
Mr. Andrew and Mr. Gary D. Cripps, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of DEC, provided a
presentation on the Pros and Cons of DEC Purchasing the City of Dover Electric System
(Attachment #1). Mr. Cripps stated that both the City of Dover and DEC have positive attributes
and felt that the two (2) organizations would function better together. He indicated that a
consolidation of these business enterprises would be fruitful for many years to come.
Referring to the Key Benefits, listed on Page 2 of the presentation, Mr. Cripps stated that members
of DEC are controlled by a Board of Directors who are elected annually in August and serve three
(3) year terms. He noted that Mr. William Wells, Chairman of the Board of Directors, was also
present. Mr. Cripps stated that if Council opts to proceed with the proposal, City of Dover utility
customers would realize lower utility rates and that the impact would be approximately $25M per
year. He advised members that consolidation with the City of Dover would provide rate stability
over the long term, particularly as it relates to the market and the effects of economic development
in the State of Delaware. Mr. Cripps stated that DEC has a Power Supply Contract, which
will expire in 2054, with Old Dominion Electric Cooperative, headquartered in Richmond, Virginia.
He explained that Old Dominion Electric Cooperative is asset based and serves 600,000 customers
in the aggregate.
Mr. Cripps noted the importance of economic development and indicated that DEC’s first priority
is to protect current businesses in the City of Dover and Kent and Sussex Counties. He advised
members that DEC has 32,000 customers in Kent County and the City of Dover has 23,000
customers. Mr. Cripps stated that if DEC purchases the City of Dover’s Electric system, their
customer base would increase to 55,000 in Kent County, which would necessitate the establishment
of a DEC facility in Dover. In addition, he stated that there would be a need for two (2) additional
districts, as well as two (2) additional members to serve on the DEC Board of Directors.
Mr. Cripps stated that one of the key benefits of consolidation would be that City of Dover residents
would retain ownership of the utility system. He advised members that DEC is an electric
cooperative, a not-for-profit organization, and not an investor-owned utility. Mr. Cripps noted that
this proposal is very different in that respect from a previous offer from Delmarva Power and Light,
which was entertained by the City in 1993. He emphasized the benefit of retaining membership and
ownership of the utility.
Page 7
Excerpt - Utility Committee Meeting Minutes of June 27, 2011 Page 2
Mr. Cripps stated that the load diversity for DEC is 82% residential and that, long term, this is
problematic. He explained that DEC needs additional commercial customers in order to obtain a
better balance and more diversity. Mr. Cripps noted that without diversity, rates would increase and
future generations would have a difficult time paying their utility bills. He explained that over the
past one (1) to (2) decades, commercial expansion has occurred near the metro areas and, as a
result, DEC has lost service territory to municipalities, which is the greatest single threat to DEC.
He stated that by consolidating the City of Dover and DEC, this threat would be mitigated.
Mr. Cripps advised members that DEC is run from a government standpoint, as is the City of
Dover’s utility, noting that DEC is administered by an elected Board of Directors and Chairman.
If the Co-op acquired the City’s Electric Department, DEC would escalate from 83,000 members to
106,000 members, which would assist with power supply contracts, allow human resource needs to
be absorbed, and provide opportunities to take advantage of material discounts that may become
available. He noted that in the past, DEC and the City have purchased items jointly, which resulted
in significant savings for the City.
Mr. Cripps acknowledged that municipalities considering similar options often express concerns
about the future, noting that initial rates following acquisition may be favorable but future rates are
uncertain. He advised members that DEC is open to competition and does not have a monopoly on
their customers. He explained that their customers may choose to obtain electric supply from anyone
that sells it in Delaware. Mr. Cripps stated that deregulation has benefitted DEC by forcing the
organization to remain “agile” and maintain its competitive position. He advised members that
operating a utility involves environmental, legislative, regulatory, and financial risk, and that the
City’s risk would be mitigated by consolidation. He indicated that the influence of a commercial
mix and density would lower DEC’s average cost and would yield great long-term benefits.
Mr. Cripps stated that acquiring the City’s utility would result in a significant financial windfall. He
explained that, for DEC customers, one of the big advantages would be economies on infrastructure
leverage, i.e., infrastructure capital needs in some areas that can be supported by infrastructure that
is already in place.
Referring to the Stakeholder Matrix on Page 3, Mr. Cripps explained that when a cooperative makes
a margin, the margin is distributed to customers and is not turned into a profit. He noted that for the
past two (2) years, DEC’s Board of Directors authorized over $5M to be paid back to customers in
the form of checks or as credits on their utility bills.
In response to Mr. Bonar, Mr. Cripps stated that if the capital credit exceeds $30 a check is issued
to customers, and if it is under $30 a credit is applied to customer utility bills.
In regard to the City Leadership/Elected Officials listed on Page 3, Mr. Cripps stated that financing
the City government would be accomplished through economic development and not by raising taxes
or rates. He explained that an examination of the City’s financial data indicates that approximately
$27M is in reserves and stated that a consolidation of the two (2) organizations would not include
a transfer of those reserves. Mr. Cripps noted that a potential disadvantage for the City would be the
inability to balance its budget through the Electric Fund; however, he noted that DEC has a proposed
solution to this concern that would be outlined further during the presentation. He explained that
loss of operational control would be another potential disadvantage.
Page 8
Excerpt - Utility Committee Meeting Minutes of June 27, 2011 Page 3
Mr. Cripps advised members that one (1) potential disadvantage to DEC members is that the
acquired area (the City of Dover) may be excluded from access to the U. S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Rural Utilities Service (RUS) Program, which provides below market funding
for electric utilities.
Referring to Page 4, Mr. Cripps stated that the commercial loads involved support generation
decisions and that, in regard to generation, the City should examine its commercial load and power
forecast for the next 5, 10, 15 and 20 years ahead. He noted that consideration of the other 600,000
members that are part of the power supply group can significantly impact those decisions.
In reference to the commercial and industrial customers, Mr. Cripps noted that lower rates would
impact large accounts such as the Bayhealth Medical Center and Dover Downs Race Track.
Regarding energy management services and technical support, Mr. Cripps stated that DEC has a
highly qualified staff, including a number of individuals with Masters of Business Administration
degrees and approximately five (5) Professional Engineers in the Engineering Department.
Referring to the map on Page 5, Mr. Andrew stated that DEC serves 83,000 customers over 1,100
square miles, including the majority of the service territory in Kent and Sussex County. He
explained that DEC surrounds the City of Dover and is contiguous in many areas. As a result, he
stated that the City and DEC have a shared infrastructure. Mr. Andrew stated that the DEC can
provide additional support to the City of Dover infrastructure and indicated that the City of Dover
has an excellent electric system which is comparable to Delaware Electric Cooperative’s system.
He noted that DEC provides only electric service and the City of Dover, like other municipalities,
provides multiple services. Mr. Andrew stated that electric rates are currently high, and commercial
and industrial sectors are consistently under pressure for competitive advantages. He noted that the
City of Dover has lost more that 295 commercial and industrial customers in the past two (2) years.
Mr. Andrew advised members that State and regulatory burdens are increasing and extremely costly
to the power industry. Recognizing that cities need additional funds to run their governments, he
stated that electric systems require cash and capital to operate. He felt that consolidating the City’s
electric system with DEC would “free up” resources the City could devote to other utilities without
raising rates or increasing taxes.
Referring to Page 6 of the presentation, Mr. Andrew stated that DEC rates are approximately 36%
lower than the average rates in Delaware and that they have been able to maintain that for several
years. He also noted that their rates were reduced during the last few years. Mr. Andrew indicated
that the State of Delaware has passed possibly the most stringent renewable portfolio standards in
the country; however, the fact that prices are already high raises concerns that the State will have
challenges attracting and retaining businesses that rely on competitive electric prices. Mr. Andrew
noted that DEC has perhaps the largest percentage of renewable portfolio in the State of Delaware,
including 253 MW of wind that is producing energy daily. In addition he stated that DEC has a
significant amount of landfill gas biomass and some hydro power. Mr. Andrew advised members
that DEC is currently working on major solar facilities and hopes to operate these within the next
two (2) years.
Page 9
Excerpt - Utility Committee Meeting Minutes of June 27, 2011 Page 4
Referring to Page 7 of the presentation, Mr. Cripps stated that according to the City of Dover balance
sheet, the net asset value of the City of Dover plant is $80M - $90M; however, he noted that typically
municipal accounting capitalizes property at a low rate, and this is something that DEC recognizes.
Mr. Cripps stated that the City of Dover and DEC would need to structure how the transfer would
occur and how payments could be made that would equal the revenue stream that the City has been
accustomed to over the years. He explained that rates for City customers would convert immediately
to Cooperative rates. Mr. Cripps advised members that DEC would open a Kent County Operations
Center in Dover and would possibly lease facilities in use by the City of Dover. He indicated that
qualified City electric department employees would be needed by DEC, and it is hoped that the
consolidation would have no impact on human resources. In addition, he stated that the City would
gain the Cooperative as a substantial taxpayer.
Referring to Page 8, Mr. Andrew stated that the rate differential per year is $25M as of 2010 and is
based on the latest information from the City of Dover that is publicly available. He indicated that
the future value, based on the net present value over a 15-year period is more than $200M to rate
payers and more than $300M over a 30-year period. In regard to economic development,
Mr. Andrew advised members that energy is the second largest cost to businesses and stated that
DEC can preclude that by making the City of Dover one of the lowest priced incorporated areas in
the region. Regarding long-term competitive power supply, Mr. Andrew stated that Old Dominion
Electric Cooperative is consistently seeking new energy-producing and capacity-producing
businesses.
In conclusion, Mr. Andrew advised members that a consolidated enterprise would be a benefit to
everyone and that rates would not rise due to consolidation. He noted that rate increases will occur;
however, mitigating and retaining competitiveness will assist in maintaining and bringing
employment to the City of Dover. Mr. Andrew felt the net value of $93M is understated and that
DEC can structure several financial instruments and provide a net payment or a combination of
payment and an annuity. He stated that if there is a need to meet the outlay of capital that is currently
obtained each year from the power plant, this can be accomplished. It was his recommendation that
members authorize an in-depth analysis and business case with an independent third-party market
specialist. Mr. Andrew noted that DEC reviewed public information over a two (2) week period
and that more detailed information will need to be reviewed. He indicated that DEC is a transparent
organization and that they are willing to review the information together with the City. Mr. Andrew
advised members that it is costing the rate payers of the City of Dover $68,000 per day for each day
that the City does not move forward.
In response to Mr. Snaman’s question regarding DEC taking over current City of Dover purchase
contracts, Mr. Andrew stated that this is an issue that would take further research. He noted that if
DEC purchase contracts run for several years and are out of market, this would be an obstacle that
must be evaluated.
Responding to Mr. Snaman, Mr. Andrew stated that Delaware Electric Cooperative is a member of
PJM.
Page 10
Excerpt - Utility Committee Meeting Minutes of June 27, 2011 Page 5
In response to Mr. Blakeman’s question regarding the transfer of longevity and benefits for current
City of Dover employees, Mr. Andrew stated that there are several legal matters involved and that
this is an issue that the City of Dover and DEC would need to resolve. He noted that these details
would be included in a contract. Mr. Cripps noted that DEC employees are also organized under the
IBEW union. He reiterated that DEC would be interested in having all qualified electric department
employees join their team.
Responding to Mr. Hutchison’s question as to whether the City could charge an excise tax if DEC
were to make the purchase, Mr. Cripps stated that this matter would have to be determined by the
solicitor. Mr. Cripps noted that the idea has been discussed and that he had not heard anyone dispute
the possibility.
Mr. Leary stated that he came to the meeting with a good deal of scepticism which has increased
since the presentation. He explained that DEC has listed the short-term benefits of purchasing the
City of Dover’s electric system but not the long-term benefits. Noting the importance of the City’s
current ability to utilize revenue generated by the electric utility, he indicated that a great deal of
additional study would be required before he would agree with such a proposal. Responding,
Mr. Andrew noted that the City would have access to an asset-owned facility that has a record of
being very reliable and is a low-cost provider in the State of Delaware. He explained that he would
welcome an opportunity to discuss additional questions that members may have regarding the
long-term benefits.
In response to Mr. Anderson’s question regarding how DEC will work with residents who require
additional time to pay their utility bills, Mr. Cripps stated that DEC has policies and procedures in
place for residents who are not able to pay their utility bills at the time they are due. He explained
that the Board donated $250,000 last year to assist customers with their bills and works closely with
the Salvation Army and Catholic Social Services. He noted that DEC has a lot of flexibility in
setting up payments and provides opportunities for customers to meet their utility obligations.
Responding to Mr. Anderson, Mr. Andrew stated that the outage rates, at worst, should stay the
same. He explained that DEC would have an operations center located in Dover and would utilize
current City of Dover employees. Mr. Andrew noted that the increased infrastructure and
technological efforts and capabilities should assist in this area and that supplying power to the City
will not involve some of the challenges of rural areas, although tree trimming would be an important
priority.
Responding to Mr. Bonar, Mr. Andrew felt that if the City decides to study the transfer of their
electric system further and hire a third party consultant, DEC would be willing to support the cost,
especially if a transfer of ownership would take place; however, he wanted to ensure that the City
is focused on moving forward. Mr. Andrew stated that DEC is willing to provide a price on a
Request For Proposal (RFP) basis that is equal and fair or to discuss such a proposal on an exclusive
basis.
Mr. Bonar relayed his appreciation to DEC and to employees in attendance from the City of Dover.
Page 11
Excerpt - Utility Committee Meeting Minutes of June 27, 2011 Page 6
He advised members that if the City decides to move forward with the transfer of the electric system,
he would insist that employees retain their benefits and longevity. Mr. Bonar noted that
employees were promised these benefits when they were hired and felt that it was important to retain
them. He explained that this a challenging and difficult decision that will require a great deal of
study before Council makes a determination.
The Committee took no action.

Subject: Garrison Energy Center Infrastructure Update
Dear Mr. Koenig,
Per your request below is an infrastructure update on the Garrison Energy Center
development project (“GEC”):
1. GEC is anticipated to be a nominal 618 MW power generation facility which is
planned to be built in two phases. (Each nominally rated at 309 MW). Targeted
commercial operation date for the first phase is June 1, 2015;
2. Updated permitting for GEC is underway as the project is being enhanced to employ
a more energy efficient technology;
3. Calpine is presently in negotiations with Eastern Shore Natural Gas to bring natural
gas to GEC and the Garrison Oak Technical Park via a new gas pipeline – presently
anticipated to be a 6 mile 16” lateral pipeline;
4. GEC’s electric interconnection process with PJM has been delayed by over three (3)
months. Calpine expects to receive GEC’s System Impact Study from PJM at the
end of September 5, 2011; and
5. Calpine is working with Becker Morgan to integrate GEC’s infrastructure
requirements with those of the Garrison Oak Technical Park.
GEC will keep you updated as to further developments. Please do not hesitate to contact me
with any questions.
Sincerely,
Champe Fisher

Purchased Power Management
Wholesale load for the month of May was 62,114 MWhs, versus a weather normalized projected
load of 58,744 MWhs. Hedged transactions accounted for 51,360 MWhs or 83% of this volume
(87% of forecasted load) at a cost of $3.56 million. Spot Market purchases resulted in a PJM
charge of $639 thousand (a $662 thousand charge in the Day Ahead market and a $23 thousand
credit in the Real Time market). Other PJM related charges accounted for an additional cost of
$1.53 million, inclusive of all load related fees. The May Energy Only Unit Cost, excluding
capacity obligations and credits, was $2.16/MWh favorable compared to the budgeted value of
$80.01/MWh. On January 24, 2011, the City of Dover reviewed and approved Pace’s and
NAES’ submittal of a revised budget for Dover’s FY2010-11 (the “Reset Budget”). The purpose
of this Reset Budget was to provide a mid-year update as to the anticipated cost-of-service for
FY2010-11. Dover’s projected all in Cost of Service for FY2010-11 is $89.87/MWh, or
$0.58/MWh favorable as compared to the Reset Budget1.
Generation and Asset Management
Net generation for the month of May credited by PJM was 1,218 MWhs and the budget did not
expect any generation. On May 31 both McKee Unit 3 and Van Sant Unit 11 were dispatched by
PJM. In aggregate, Dover’s units were dispatched for 22 hours during the month, creating a
generation production margin of $71 thousand (after fuel costs).
The McKee units completed its spring outage on May 23 which started on March 28. On May
16, McKee units performed operational testing under natural gas and fuel oil to verify working
status of controls modification made to the burner management system.

The projected all in Cost of Service is based on YTD actual results for 11 months and 1 month of projected costs.
The Reset Budget was reviewed and approved by City of Dover.

Emissions Allowance Management
Given the regulatory uncertainty surrounding the allowance markets, Dover has elected not to
include revenues from emission allowance sales in its 2010-2011 fiscal year budget. Dover
purchased and retired 53 NOX seasonal allowances on November 23rd 2010, in order to meet
their 2010 NOX seasonal compliance position. Additionally, Dover purchased 22 NOX annual
allowances on February 11, 2011, in order to cover their 2010 NOX annual compliance position.
In January 2011, Dover was allocated 1,988 SO2 allowances, 42 NOX seasonal allowances, and
76 NOX annual allowances. Dover has the appropriate number of allowances were set aside for
retirement (see Exhibit 1).

Notes:
(1) Revenue calculations account for a $0.50/ton broker fee for SO2, $10/ton broker fee for NOx annual and $5/ton broker fee
for NOX seasonal.
(2) Per the Clean Air Interstate Rule, in 2009, NOx emissions will be governed by a seasonal and annual program. The NO x
seasonal emissions pertain only to emissions (May 1 – Sep 30), similar to the previous trading regimen. Annual
emissions cover the entire year.
3
Page 23
(3) CAIR allowances are retired at a rate of 2 allowances for each ton emitted. Pre-CAIR allowances retain a 1 allowance to
1 ton value for compliance. It is assumed that pre-CAIR allowances will be retired before CAIR allowances.
Given current dispatch expectations, the market value of the remaining 2007-2011 Dover
allowance inventory is approximately $36,848.75 at the time of this report. This represents
3,189 pre-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at $3.75/ton, 3976 post-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at
$2.50/ton, 72 NOx annual allowances trading at $195/ton, and 52 NOx seasonal allowances
trading at $17.50/ton.

Operations Management Summary
During the month of May, there were no reportable or lost time accidents or injuries. The facility
has now gone 229 days without an OSHA recordable accident and 229 consecutive days without
a lost time reportable accident. There were zero Environmental Notices of Violations issued.
There were three near miss events and three environmental deviations. Unit 3 was dispatched
once and Unit 11 was dispatched twice with one of these dispatches later canceled.
Monthly Budget Variance - The actual expenses attributable to O&M of the two sites for the
month of May were $445,311. The expenses were $17,203 or 4.02% over the approved budget of
$428,108. The principal reason for the negative variance is due to higher than budgeted expenses
in electric and combustion turbine maintenance which were partially offset by lower costs in
personnel expenses and materials.
2
Approximately 10 tons of NOx emissions resulted from the February 2010 McKee Run testing associated with the
Pollution Remediation project and the June 2010 emission testing project.
3
The EPA reallocated 2 additional seasonal NOx allowances into the McKee Run 2011 account.

Risk Management Summary
Forward PJM power prices were mixed since the last reporting period. Prices increased as above
average temperatures were seen across much of the country, pushing the nearer term of the
forward curve higher while the further out portion fell slightly. Forward Dover Zone power
prices for FY 2011-2012, FY 2012-2013, FY 2013-2014, and FY 2014-2015 all changed by
approximately -$0.91/MWh to $0.90/MWh (representing a range of a -1.50% decrease and a
1.71% increase, respectively) compared with the last reporting period.

2.2 – VARIANCE ANALYSIS
Power Supply
Power Supply realized a favorable $48 thousand variance compared to the budget. This
favorable variance was primarily due to the timing of Dover’s options purchase and
payment of the associated premium. During FY2009-10 the City of Dover purchased
Options as insurance to protect Dover from incremental energy cost exposure. The
current City of Dover power supply and generation budget indicates that 100% of this
purchase was expensed as a Power Supply Cost in the FY2009-10 period; however the
FY2010-11 budget accrues this expense monthly.
PJM Charges for Load experienced a negative $186 thousand variance relative to the
monthly budget. This variance was driven by Dover’s open position, which was 46%
higher than budget. A larger volume of open positions, coupled with higher than
projected PJM energy open prices, resulted in a total Open Position cost that was $307
thousand greater than budget. Additional factors contributing to the unfavorable variance
included i) a $112 thousand unfavorable variance in PJM Ancillary charges and ii) a $27
thousand unfavorable variance in Transmission Loss Refunds. Offsetting these
unfavorable variances were a $170 thousand favorable variances in Load Following and a
$97 thousand favorable variance in Basis costs.
For the month the City realized a $138 thousand unfavorable net variance between Power
Supply (fixed positions) and PJM Charges for Load (open positions, transmission, etc.).
The change in volume resulted in an unfavorable $252 thousand variance, and the change
in price resulted in a favorable $114 thousand variance. Hence, all of the unfavorable
variance can be attributed to volume changes.
The Power Supply Management variance is merely an estimate at this point.
Generation
Plant O&M reported an unfavorable variance of $17 thousand compared to the revised
monthly O&M reset Budget of $428 thousand (the overall reset plant budget for FY
2010-11 was approved by the City Council on March, 2011). The timing of electric
invoice and higher than expected combustion turbine maintenance resulted in
unfavorable variance.

The actual Dover load of 62,114 MWh was 5.7% above the projected May load of
58,744 MWh.
The All In Unit Energy Cost was $2.16 per MWh lower than budget due to a decreased
load following and basis charges. Offsetting these positive variances was an increased
open position volume and a higher than budgeted energy price, an unfavorable PJM
Ancillary charge and a lower than projected transmission related refund.

PJM dispatched McKee Run Unit 3 and Van Sant Unit 11 on May 31st for 22 hours.
Dover’s units generated 1,218 MWhs in aggregate for the PJM market and the budget did
not expect any generation for the month.
The McKee units started a planned outage on March 28 that ended on May 23. On May
16, these units performed operational tests consuming 355 dth of natural gas and 754
gallons of fuel oil no.2. The testing fuel costs are expected under EG1112 and EG1113
projects.

Fuel Expense
PJM dispatched Dover’s McKee Run Unit 3 and Van Sant Unit 11 during the month. During
that period the units consumed natural gas related to economic power generation. The
McKee units also burned natural gas and fuel oil once during the month for operational
testing purposes (See “Fuel and Transportation” and “Purchased Commodity Fuel Oil
Summary”). The fuel expenses related to operational testing should be accrued under
EG1112 and EG1113 projects.

Due to the conversion from #6 residual oil to low sulfur #2 oil, the need for a constant supply of
natural gas to heat the #6 oil is no longer required. Some gas will still be required for winter
space heating of the building(s). Pace will coordinate with NAES on the procurement of such
supply. This expense will now fall under the plant’s utility costs and be paid and budgeted for by
the station.
Gas Transportation Purchased
City of Dover decided not to renew agreements with the Eastern Shore Natural Gas Pipeline
(“ESNG”) and TransCo to provide firm natural gas deliveries to the McKee Run and Van Sant
stations. The City of Dover previously notified ESNG and TransCo of its intent to terminate
these existing firm capacity agreements and, as a result, the City no longer pays firm demand
charges or adjustments.

3.3 – EMISSIONS AND ALLOWANCE MANAGEMENT
Given the regulatory uncertainty surrounding the allowance markets, Dover has elected not to
include revenues from emission allowance sales in its 2010-2011 fiscal year budget. Dover
purchased and retired 53 NOX seasonal allowances on November 23rd 2010, in order to meet
their 2010 NOX seasonal compliance position. Additionally, Dover purchased 22 NOX annual
allowances on February 11, 2011, in order to cover their 2010 NOX annual compliance position.
In January 2011, Dover was allocated 1,988 SO2 allowances, 42 NOX seasonal allowances, and
76 NOX annual allowances. Dover has the appropriate number of allowances were set aside for
retirement (see Exhibit 1).

Notes:
(1) Revenue calculations account for a $.50/ton broker fee for SO 2, $10/ton broker fee for NOx annual and $5/ton broker fee
for NOX seasonal.
(2) Per the Clean Air Interstate Rule, in 2009, NOx emissions will be governed by a seasonal and annual program. The NOx
seasonal emissions pertain only to emissions (May 1 – Sep 30), similar to the previous trading regimen. Annual
emissions cover the entire year.
19
Page 39
(3) CAIR allowances are retired at a rate of 2 allowances for each ton emitted. Pre-CAIR allowances retain a 1 allowance to
1 ton value for compliance. It is assumed that pre-CAIR allowances will be retired before CAIR allowances.
Given current dispatch expectations, the market value of the remaining 2007-2011 Dover
allowance inventory is approximately $36,848.75 at the time of this report. This represents
3,189 pre-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at $3.75/ton, 3976 post-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at
$2.50/ton, 72 NOx annual allowances trading at $195/ton, and 52 NOx seasonal allowances
trading at $17.50/ton.
SO2
Existing SO2 allowances continue to have little value as the market awaits the release of the final
version of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Clean Air Transport Rule (Transport
Rule). See Figure 1 – SO2 Prices. With an ample bank of existing SO2 allowances in the market
and the expectation that the final Transport Rule will require covered facilities to hold and retire
SO2 compliance instruments issued under the new program, prices for current vintage or older
allowances are expected to remain very low.

NOx
NOX annual allowance prices rebounded some in the wake of high temperatures in late May and
early June (See Figure 2 – NOX Annual Prices since Last Monthly Report.) A hot 2010 summer
helped push NOX annual prices near $550/ton. A similarly hot summer this year could place
some upward pressure on NOX annual pricing. With that said, as with SO2 allowances, if the
Transport Rule implements as expected in 2012, NOX allowances will have no value beyond
meeting 2011 compliance requirements. With no incentive to bank allowances, it is unlikely that
20
Page 40
NOX annual allowances will increase much above current levels, unless generators have vastly
underestimated their compliance needs for 2011.
NOX seasonal allowances lost some value over last month. Allowances continue to trade in low
volumes and around $20/ton (See Figure 3 – NOX 2011.) As with NOX annual and SO2
allowances, new trading rules under the Transport Rule are unlikely to allow current vintage
NOX seasonal allowances to qualify for compliance.

SO2 and NOx Outlook
The final Transport Rule, setting new emissions trading rules, is expected to be released in June
or July and implemented in January 2012. The expectation is that there will be new allowances
for SO2 and NOX emissions, leaving little value for the existing bank of allowances beyond this
year’s compliance requirements. It is difficult to estimate what the future compliance costs for
SO2 and NOX emissions will be under new trading rules with a number of variables still
unknown - the release of the final Transport Rule should provide some clarity.
Senator Tom Carper (D-Delaware), one of the key proponents of a “legislative fix” to the SO2
and NOX market rules, announced this month that he will not pursue passing a multi-pollutant in
this Congress. While there remain some proposals in the House of Representatives to delay EPA
implementation of various air pollution rules, expectation is that legislation impacting these
markets will not be enacted this year or next. With that, EPA’s Transport Rule will likely be the
regulatory mechanism moving forward, although there remains the possibility that lawsuits filed
after the final rule is released could delay implementation.
RGGI and Federal Carbon Outlook
RGGI allowance prices continue to price at very low levels, as the market is substantially over
supplied, forcing prices to levels at or near the statutory price floor (see Figure 4 – RGGI
Allowance Prices).
Figure 4 – RGGI Allowance Prices since Last Monthly Report
RGGI Prices (May / June)
$1.95

The big news in RGGI has been the announcement from New Jersey Governor Chris Christie
that the state will withdraw from RGGI at the end of this year. The announcement is not
expected to have an enormous impact on the market, but could be an impetus for other states to
22
Page 42
follow suit. Although currently there are no expectations of other states exiting the program as
New Hampshire, Delaware, and Maine have all recently voted down similar efforts to withdraw
from RGGI and New York, Maryland, and Massachusetts, the three largest members in terms of
emissions, remain committed to the program.
RGGI program administrators are meeting to review program rules as part of their 2012
Comprehensive Review process. With the program over allocated, the major issue is whether
anything can be done to lower the cap or limit the amount the existing bank can qualify for
compliance. If the program continues with the existing planned caps and banked allowances are
permitted for compliance at full value, RGGI allowances are likely to remain near current levels
for the next several years.
In Congress, there has been little movement or discussion on climate legislation nor is any
expected through 2012. EPA will remain the primary driver at the federal level, although has
recently announced that they will delay the release of proposed GHG emission limits for power
plants, which were originally scheduled to be released this July. Proposed rules are now
expected in September, although EPA maintains that final rules will be released in May 2012, as
scheduled.

4.0 – OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT
Management Highlights
During the month of May, there were no restricted work days or lost time accidents. The
facility has now gone 229 days without an OSHA recordable accident or a lost time
reportable accident. Three Near Misses were recorded for the month.
The plant received no Notice of Violations (NOVs). There was one environmental
deviation on the amount of dissolved solids (TDS) going to the outfall. There were three
opacity deviations that resulted from testing the updated controls while combusting #2
fuel oil on Unit 1.
The Units 1, 2, and 3 planned outages were cleared on Monday May 23 at 0600 hours.
Unit 11 was dispatched by PJM on May 30 but then the dispatch was cancelled later by
PJM. The unit was dispatched on the following day and ran for 8.216 hours. Unit 3 was
dispatched on May 31and ran for 13.750 hours. Units 1 and 2 were available but never
dispatched.
On May 18, the modifications to the Unit 3 Burner Management System were tested and
eventually the test was successful and the system deemed operational.
On May 17th, Erik Petty received a NAES Service Recognition Award from Vincent
Scire, Plant Manager, in recognition of completing 10 years of service working at the
City of Dover Generating Facilities.
The following is the NAES Monthly Report as submitted to PGAM.

During the month of May, there were no restricted work days or lost time accidents. The facility
has now gone 229 days without an OSHA recordable accident or a lost time reportable
accident.
Three Near Misses were recorded for the month. 1) A LO/TO procedure to replace a valve on
the caustic system in the VanSant DI was not effectively isolated due to water pressure still
remaining on the line as the valve was in the process of being removed. 2) Upon startup, Unit 3
experienced low vacuum. An immediate investigation found that the exhaust hood cover plate
was not completely tightened. 3) Scaffold erected to gain access to the Unit 3 expansion joint
and ductwork combusted due to exposure to heat emitting from the air heater top guide bearing
area during a unit dispatch. Wood planking had been installed directly over the air heater which
then got hot and began to smolder. The flames were put out with an extinguisher and the
planking was removed.
The plant received no Notice of Violations (NOVs). There was one environmental deviation on
the amount of dissolved solids (TDS) going to the outfall. There were three opacity deviations
that resulted from testing the updated controls while combusting #2 fuel oil on Unit 1.

Note ** - Higher NOx emissions are attributed to data substitution rules that use significantly higher emission rates
than actually were emitted. The implementation of the data substitution rules were caused by performing a linearity
test outside the grace period. NAES ESS was able to provide assistance in reducing the NOx emissions from 137
tons to 119 tons since the October report. A petition to the EPA was sent out in February that would result in a
reduction in reported emissions. The EPA has given preliminary approval to the petition request although it is not
official until the plant receives a signed EPA approval. Until the issue is resolved, the EPA has locked the annual
account and no allowances will be deducted until that time.
Note# - 53 tons were purchased to help compensate for the shortage in seasonal NOx allowances.
Note## - 22 tons were purchased to help compensate for the shortage in annual NOx allowances.

2.1 Variance analysis:
The adjusted (annual reset) budget for May was $428,108. The actual expenses for May were
$445,311 for an unfavorable variance of $17,203 or ≈ 4.02%. The variance was due to the
following:
PERSONNEL EXPENSES – Lower straight labor, overtime, and labor burdens accounted for a
favorable variance of $15,100.
MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES EXPENSES- Lower than budgeted expenses in Medical
Supplies, Water Treatment Chemicals, Computer Hardware, and City Building Maintenance
contributed to realizing a favorable variance of $14,378.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES – Higher than budgeted expenses in the areas of Electric (due
to billing cycle – both April and May booked in May), Training / Conference / Food,
Environmental Expenses, Home Office Labor, Other Equipment /Maintenance , Radio Repairs -
Maintenance, and Combustion Turbine Maintenance costs which contributed to an unfavorable
variance of $46,681. The majority of the unfavorable variance was due to Electric billing
($43,000 of the $46,681 variance)
The current budget forecast for the current fiscal year is $6,156,900 expensed versus an
adjusted budget of $6,163,315 thereby realizing a 99.90%.expense rate.

Team Report:
On May 18, the modifications to the Unit 3 Burner Management System were tested by putting
different natural gas burners in service then tripping burners to test to determine which gas
valves would trip and compare with the ladder logic. After going through all nine burners, the
test was successful and the system deemed operational. The testing was done without putting
the unit on line.
Operations personnel provided support to maintenance by working on Preventative
Maintenance (PM) work orders or other work orders that they have the necessary skills to
complete successfully. The Operations Department continues to utilize the Flex Team in both
Operations and Maintenance areas to help in maintaining the plant.

6.0 General Plant Information
Training:
CEMS training was completed at VanSant for the Operations staff to allow checks to be
completed on a daily basis by operators. VanSant is a remote site that is three miles away from
McKee Run. Completing the daily checks by operators will provide consistency in work tasks
and aid in ensuring tasks are completed in a timely manner.
Training of all plant employees was held in May to educate them on being able to recognize Arc
Flash Levels as well as identifying the applicable PPE to ensure their personal safety and the
safety of others who may be in the arc flash exposure area. Subsequent to the training, the
plant’s uniform policy has been revised to reflect the new safety standards.
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.
Used Oil training was conducted to familiarize employees with a plan revision and subsequent
operational changes.
Personnel:
On May 13th, Erik Petty successfully passed the PJM System Operator Certification exam. Mr.
Petty received a shirt to commemorate his achievement for passing the PJM Operator exam.
On May 17th, Erik Petty received a NAES Service Recognition Award from Vincent Scire, Plant
Manager, in recognition of completing 10 years of service working at the City of Dover
Generating Facilities.

III. GLOSSARY
Energy Only Unit Cost ("EOU") accounts for the wholesale energy costs excluding capacity
obligations, capacity credits for Dover-owned generation, generation revenues, generating plant costs, the
black start ancillary services credit for the Van Sant plant, and revenues associated with the sale of
emission allowances. The AIE includes the costs from settling the hedged or forward transactions; the
energy bought on the ISO (Independent System Operator or PJM) day-ahead to cover the open position
(un-hedged); load following costs associated with balancing the actual load in the ISO real-time market;
energy management service related fees; the ISO transmission charges and credits to load serving entities;
the ISO ancillary services charges such as generation regulation, spinning reserve, and reactive power;
and the ISO administrative charges and cost of service recovery fees.
All In Cost of Service ("AICS") accounts for the net cost of wholesale power to the City of Dover
Electric Utility. The AICS starts with the AIE and adds the costs or credits from capacity obligations,
capacity credits for Dover-owned generation, generation revenues, generating plant costs, the black start
ancillary services credit for the Van Sant plant, and revenues associated with the sale of emission
allowances.
Black Start is a generating ancillary service that is the process of restoring a generating plant to service
without the support of an external power supply to power auxiliary equipment needed for start up
operations.
Capacity UCAP Obligated Purchased is the obligation and payment by all load serving entities in PJM
including Dover for the Unforced Capacity (UCAP) requirement from PJM that satisfies the PJM reserve
requirements.
Generation Capacity Credit: is the credit provided to generators for supply capacity to the system. The
price is determined by the PJM Reliability Pricing Market auction process that includes three auctions for
each capacity year.
Generation Production Margin accounts for the variable margin excluding variable O&M and
emissions. The Generation Production Margin is calculated by taking the PJM revenues credited to the
plant including any balancing charges or credits less the fuel costs. Generation Production Margin
includes both “Economic and reliability dispatch” and “Testing.” Economic and reliability dispatch
equals the margin achieved when Dover’s generating plants are dispatched by PJM for either economic
dispatch (the system energy price is greater than the Dover bid price) or reliability dispatch whereby PJM
pays the generating cost of the plants for the hours the plant is run to support the system. Generation
Testing equals the Generation Production Margin associated with testing. This is usually expected to be a
negative margin because the plant is potentially being dispatched / run when energy prices do not cover
its costs.
Non-Production Revenue equals the credits from PJM to Dover for Generation Capacity Credit, the
Black Start Revenue and the sales by Dover of Emission Allowances.

Purchased Power Management
Wholesale load for the month of June was 71,891 MWhs, versus a weather normalized projected
load of 67,331 MWhs. Hedged transactions accounted for 57,440 MWhs or 80% of this volume
(85% of forecasted load) at a cost of $3.94 million. Spot Market purchases resulted in a PJM
charge of $1.38 million (a $1.37 million charge in the Day Ahead market and an $11 thousand
charge in the Real Time market). Other PJM related charges accounted for an additional cost of
$1.04 million, inclusive of all load related fees. The June Energy Only Unit Cost, excluding
capacity obligations and credits, was $1.85/MWh unfavorable compared to the budgeted value of
$80.34/MWh. On January 24, 2011, the City of Dover reviewed and approved Pace’s and
NAES’ submittal of a revised budget for Dover’s FY2010-11 (the “Reset Budget”). The purpose
of this Reset Budget was to provide a mid-year update as to the anticipated cost-of-service for
FY2010-11. Dover’s Cost of Service for FY2010-11 is $89.70/MWh, or $0.75/MWh favorable
as compared to the Reset Budget1.
Generation and Asset Management
Net generation for the month of June credited by PJM was 4,115 MWhs and the budget did not
expect any generation. All Dover units were dispatched by PJM during the month. In aggregate,
Dover’s units were dispatched for 123 hours during the month, creating a generation production
margin of $563 thousand (after fuel costs).
For the month, McKee Units 2 and 3 successfully completed the PJM Capacity Tests for the
Summer Demonstration Period.

The all in Cost of Service is based on actual results for 12 months of Dover’s costs. The Reset Budget was
reviewed and approved by City of Dover.

Emissions Allowance Management
Given the regulatory uncertainty surrounding the allowance markets, Dover has elected not to
include revenues from emission allowance sales in its 2010-2011 fiscal year budget. Dover
purchased and retired 53 NOX seasonal allowances on November 23rd 2010, in order to meet
their 2010 NOX seasonal compliance position. Additionally, Dover purchased 22 NOX annual
allowances on February 11, 2011, in order to cover their 2010 NOX annual compliance position.
In January 2011, Dover was allocated 1,988 SO2 allowances, 42 NOX seasonal allowances, and
76 NOX annual allowances. Dover has the appropriate number of allowances set aside for
retirement (see Exhibit 1).

(2) Per the Clean Air Interstate Rule, in 2009, NOx emissions will be governed by a seasonal and annual program. The NOx
seasonal emissions pertain only to emissions (May 1 – Sep 30), similar to the previous trading regimen. Annual
emissions cover the entire year.
(3) CAIR allowances are retired at a rate of 2 allowances for each ton emitted. Pre-CAIR allowances retain a 1 allowance to
1 ton value for compliance. It is assumed that pre-CAIR allowances will be retired before CAIR allowances.
Given current dispatch expectations, the market value of the remaining 2007-2011 Dover
allowance inventory is approximately $31,025 at the time of this report. This represents 3,189
pre-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at $3.63/ton, 3,976 post-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at
$2.13/ton, 52 NOx annual allowances trading at $142.50/ton, and 52 NOx seasonal allowances
trading at $15.00/ton.

Operations Management Summary
During the month of June, there were no reportable or lost time accidents or injuries. The facility
has now gone 259 days without an OSHA recordable accident and 259 consecutive days without
a lost time reportable accident. There were zero Environmental Notices of Violations issued.
There were no near miss events. Units 1, 2, 3 and 11 were dispatched by PJM during a three day
heat wave. During the month, units 2 and 3 successfully completed the PJM Capacity tests for
the summer demonstration period.
Monthly Budget Variance - The estimated expenses attributable to O&M of the two sites for the
month of June were $1,309,993. These expenses were $302,188 or 29.98% over the approved
budget of $1,007,805. The principal reasons for the negative variance were the timing of the
insurance payments (billing cycle), electric invoices (due to billing cycle), and water treatment
chemicals and water (due to unexpected operations). The final actual expenses will be
determined on the closing date for the fiscal year, expected by on or about July 29, 2011.
2
Approximately 10 tons of NOx emissions resulted from the February 2010 McKee Run testing associated with the
Pollution Remediation project and the June 2010 emission testing project.
3
The EPA reallocated 4 additional annual NOx allowances into the McKee Run 2011 account.
4
The EPA reallocated 2 additional seasonal NOx allowances into the McKee Run 2011 account.

Risk Management Summary
Forward PJM power prices were mixed since the last reporting period. Near-term prices
decreased as the economic recovery slowed and natural gas storage numbers were bearish,
pushing the forward curve lower while further out on the curve increased slightly. Forward
Dover Zone power prices for FY 2011-2012, FY 2012-2013, FY 2013-2014, and FY 2014-2015
all changed by approximately -$5.29/MWh to $1.65/MWh (representing a range of a -9.88%
decrease and a 2.77% increase, respectively) compared with the last reporting period.

2.2 – VARIANCE ANALYSIS
Power Supply
Power Supply realized a favorable $55 thousand variance compared to the budget. This
favorable variance was primarily due to the timing of Dover’s options purchase and
payment of the associated premium. During FY2009-10 the City of Dover purchased
Options as insurance to protect Dover from incremental energy cost exposure. The
current City of Dover power supply and generation budget indicates that 100% of this
purchase was expensed as a Power Supply Cost in the FY2009-10 period; however the
FY2010-11 budget accrues this expense monthly.
PJM Charges for Load experienced a negative $509 thousand variance relative to the
monthly budget. This variance was driven by Dover’s open position, which was 46%
higher than budget. A larger volume of open positions, coupled with higher than
projected PJM energy open prices, resulted in a total Open Position cost that was $646
thousand greater than budget. Additional factors contributing to the unfavorable variance
included i) a $32 thousand unfavorable variance in PJM Ancillary charges; ii) a $37
thousand unfavorable variance in updated transmission charges; and iii) a $32 thousand
unfavorable variance in Transmission Loss Refunds. Offsetting these unfavorable
variances were a $157 thousand favorable variances in Load Following costs, a $26
thousand favorable variances in transmission related credits, and a $55 thousand
favorable variance in Basis costs.
For the month the City realized a $455 thousand unfavorable net variance between Power
Supply (fixed positions) and PJM Charges for Load (open positions, transmission, etc.).
The change in volume resulted in an unfavorable $360 thousand variance, and the change
in price resulted in an unfavorable $95 thousand variance. Hence, all of the unfavorable
variance can be attributed to volume and price changes.
Generation
Per the City of Dover’s recommendation, the Plant’s O&M expense, provided above, is
an estimated until the City’s H.T.E is finalized for the month. Under the estimate, the
City realized an unfavorable variance of $302 thousand compared to the revised monthly
O&M reset Budget of $1.0 million (the overall reset plant budget for FY 2010-11 was
approved by the City Council in March 2011). The principal reasons for the negative
variance were the timing of insurance payments and accrual of electricity expenses
budgeted for next billing cycle, but expensed during the current month. In addition,
Dover’s plants experienced increased chemical and water treatment expenses due to
higher than anticipated power generations.

The actual Dover load of 71,891 MWh was 6.7% above the projected June load of
67,331 MWh.
The All In Unit Energy Cost was $1.85 per MWh higher than budget due to an
increased open position volume, a higher than budgeted energy price, an unfavorable
PJM Ancillary charge and a lower than projected transmission loss refund. Offsetting
these negative variances were a decreased load following and basis charges.

Due to the conversion from #6 residual oil to low sulfur #2 oil, the need for a constant supply of
natural gas to heat the #6 oil is no longer required. Some gas will still be required for winter
space heating of the building(s). Pace will coordinate with NAES on the procurement of such
supply. This expense will now fall under the plant’s utility costs and be paid and budgeted for by
the station.

3.3 – EMISSIONS AND ALLOWANCE MANAGEMENT
Given the regulatory uncertainty surrounding the allowance markets, Dover has elected not to
include revenues from emission allowance sales in its 2010-2011 fiscal year budget. Dover
purchased and retired 53 NOX seasonal allowances on November 23rd 2010, in order to meet
their 2010 NOX seasonal compliance position. Additionally, Dover purchased 22 NOX annual
allowances on February 11, 2011, in order to cover their 2010 NOX annual compliance position.
In January 2011, Dover was allocated 1,988 SO2 allowances, 42 NOX seasonal allowances, and
76 NOX annual allowances. Dover has the appropriate number of allowances were set aside for
retirement (see Exhibit 1).

Notes:
(1) Revenue calculations account for a $0.50/ton broker fee for SO2, $10/ton broker fee for NOx annual and $5/ton broker fee
for NOX seasonal.
(2) Per the Clean Air Interstate Rule, in 2009, NOx emissions will be governed by a seasonal and annual program. The NO x
seasonal emissions pertain only to emissions (May 1 – Sep 30), similar to the previous trading regimen. Annual
emissions cover the entire year.
19
Page 82
(3) CAIR allowances are retired at a rate of 2 allowances for each ton emitted. Pre-CAIR allowances retain a 1 allowance to
1 ton value for compliance. It is assumed that pre-CAIR allowances will be retired before CAIR allowances.
Given current dispatch expectations, the market value of the remaining 2007-2011 Dover
allowance inventory is approximately $31,025 at the time of this report. This represents 3,189
pre-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at $3.63/ton, 3976 post-CAIR SO2 allowances trading at
$2.13/ton, 52 NOx annual allowances trading at $142.50/ton, and 52 NOx seasonal allowances
trading at $15.00/ton.
EPA Issues Final Transport Rule
On July 7, 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released the long-anticipated final
rule that will regulate the SO2 and NOX emissions markets. The Cross State Air Pollution Rule
(CSAPR) will have implications for fossil fuel burning power plants located in 27 states, but
does not include compliance requirements for units located in Delaware. Unlike the Clean Air
Interstate Rule (CAIR), which regulates the current emissions markets, and the proposed Clean
Air Transport Rule (CATR), under CSAPR, Dover will not be required to submit emission
allowances for their SO2, annual NOX or seasonal NOX emissions.
The CSAPR, similar to CAIR, utilizes a cap-and-trade system whereby regulated facilities must
procure emission allowances to account for their emissions from the previous year and submit
them to the EPA for compliance. One allowance is equal to one ton of annual SO 2, annual NOX
or seasonal NOX (the NOX or ozone season takes place between May 1 and September 30.) Most
allowances will be distributed directly to existing facilities, however, because the program is
designed to reduce overall emissions, less allowances will be allocated than would be needed in a
“business as usual” scenario. Further, in some states, the number of allowances distributed each
year will be significantly reduced beginning in 2014.
Unlike CAIR, the CSAPR establishes emission caps at the state level with limited variability
from those caps each year, thus restricting allowance trading between states. The state caps are
intended to ensure that facilities in upwind states do not procure excess allowances (thus
allowing more pollution from the upwind states) that might lead to non-attainment of air quality
standards for a downwind state. As a consequence, there may be some disparity in the market
cost for allowances between states.
As with the proposed rule, the SO2 market will be further divided into two groups, Group 1 and
Group 2. Sixteen states in Group 1 will see emission caps set in 2012 and then further reduced in
2014. The seven states in Group 2 will have their caps set in 2012, and then remain level in the
following years. Facilities can only trade SO2 allowances with facilities located in their same
Group.
Absent legal, administrative or legislative action, CSAPR requirements will begin on January 1,
2012. While this final rule provides some clarity, uncertainty still exists: lawsuits could delay
implementation; Congress could pass legislation overhauling the program; and EPA’s pending
air quality standards could further tighten the compliance requirements for facilities covered by
20
Page 83
this rule. Further, new air quality standards could force EPA to revise which states are covered
under the rule. With that said, under the current construct, Dover does not have any compliance
requirements under CSAPR.
SO2
The release of CSAPR had little impact on the already deflated SO2 allowance market (see
Figure 1 – SO2 Prices.) With an ample bank of existing SO2 allowances in the market and the
confirmation that CSAPR will require covered facilities to hold and retire SO2 compliance
instruments issued under the new program, prices for current vintage or older allowances remain
very low. Absent some change to the regulatory construct, little to no movement is expected in
current vintage allowance prices.

NOx
After a peak in pricing in early June, NOX annual allowance prices have fallen off some in early
July (see Figure 2 – NOX Annual Prices since Last Monthly Report.) Recent warming
temperatures across the country could place some upward pressure on allowances prices.
However, with no incentive to bank current vintage allowances for future years, as the market
transitions to CSAPR, it is unlikely that NOX annual allowances will increase substantially above
current levels
NOX seasonal allowances have traded fairly steadily and in low volumes over last month (see
Figure 3 – NOX .) As with NOX annual and SO2 allowances, new trading rules under CSAPR
will not allow current vintage NOX seasonal allowances to qualify for compliance.

RGGI and Federal Carbon Outlook
RGGI allowance prices continue to price at very low levels, as the market is substantially over
supplied, forcing prices to levels at or near the statutory price floor (see Figure 4 – RGGI
Allowance Prices.)

RGGI program administrators are meeting to review program rules as part of their 2012
Comprehensive Review process. With the program over allocated, the major issue is whether
anything can be done to lower the cap or limit the amount the existing bank can qualify for
compliance. If the program continues with the existing planned caps and banked allowances are
permitted for compliance at full value, RGGI allowances are likely to remain near current levels
for the next several years.
In Congress, there has been little movement or discussion on climate legislation nor is any
expected through 2012. EPA will remain the primary driver at the federal level, although has
recently announced that they will delay the release of proposed GHG emission limits for power
plants, which were originally scheduled to be released this July. Proposed rules are now
expected in September, and EPA maintains that final rules will be released in May 2012, as
scheduled.

Note ** - Higher NOx emissions are attributed to data substitution rules that use significantly higher
emission rates than actually were emitted. The implementation of the data substitution rules were caused
by performing a linearity test outside the grace period. NAES ESS was able to provide assistance in
reducing the NOx emissions from 137 tons to 119 tons since the October report. A petition to the EPA
was sent out in February that would result in a reduction in reported emissions. The EPA has given
preliminary approval to the petition request although it is not official until the plant receives a signed EPA
approval. Until the issue is resolved, the EPA has locked the annual account and no allowances will be
deducted until that time.
Note# - 53 tons were purchased to help compensate for the shortage in seasonal NOx allowances.
Note## - 22 tons were purchased to help compensate for the shortage in annual NOx allowances.

2.1 Variance analysis:
The City of Dover Finance Department has not yet closed the books for the month of June but
has conveyed to PACE that it was permissible to use the expenses booked to date for their final
monthly report. The City of Dover plans on closing the books for June on July 29, 2011 or soon
thereafter. The adjusted (annual reset) budget for June was $1,007,805. The actual expenses for
June were $1,309,993for an unfavorable variance of $302,188 or ≈ 29.98%. The variance was
due to the following:
PERSONNEL EXPENSES – Lower straight labor, overtime, and labor burdens accounted for a
favorable variance of $24,725.
MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES EXPENSES- Higher than budgeted expenses in Water/Sewer,
Water Treatment Chemicals, Computer Hardware, and City Building Maintenance contributed to
realizing an unfavorable variance of $24,163.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES – Higher than budgeted expenses in the areas of Insurance
(due to billing cycle), Electric (due to billing cycle), Training / Conference / Food , Contractual
Services, Environmental Expenses, Home Office Labor, Other Equipment / Maintenance, Boiler
Systems, Continuous Emission Monitors, and Combustion Turbine Maintenance contributed to
an unfavorable variance of $302,750. The majority of the unfavorable variance was due to
Insurance premium billing.
The current budget forecast for the current fiscal year is $6,495,088 expensed versus an adjusted
budget of $6,163,315 thereby realizing a 104.8%.expense rate.

Team Report:
Plant employees continue to study 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.
Operations personnel continue to support maintenance by working on Preventative Maintenance
(PM) work orders and other work orders for those work orders that they have the necessary skills
to successfully complete the task. The Operations Department continues to utilize the Flex Team
in both Operations and Maintenance areas to help in maintaining the plant. During the month of
June, Operations successfully completed the PJM Capacity Tests on Units 2 and 3 for the
Summer Demonstration Period.

Notable activities during the month include:
1) Maintenance completed the removal and installation of a new braided gas line to the A-2
main gas burner on Unit 3. It was discovered during the most recent unit dispatch that the
gas line had a small gas leak. Operations promptly removed the burner from service and a
LOTO was completed for the repair.
2) Maintenance staff completed the annual oil sampling of plant equipment and the results
were analyzed by Bentley Tribology Services. Results were received and reviewed by the
plant maintenance staff. Based on the sample results, a recommendation to change the oil
in two fan motors was acted upon.
3) Operations team members, I,C/E staff and Aqua Tech Technicians investigated problems
with the Van Sant DI train. The DI was not able to get extended throughput when the
train was put in operation. During the evaluation of the regeneration process, it was
discovered several analyzers, probes and transmitters weren’t working properly. Each
was calibrated and checked for proper working condition. Upon completion of the
evaluation, Aquatech recommended the replacement of five separate pieces of
instrumentation equipment. Bids were solicited for the new parts and subsequently
34
Page 97
ordered. Several weeks later, the I,C/E staff received the Vansant DI parts and promptly
went about the process of installing the equipment. Operations was tasked with placing
the Van Sant DI in service for final tuning and testing of the new instruments. During the
regeneration process it was discovered that more technical support would be needed from
Aqua Tech. Aqua Tech was brought back on site and Operations placed the DI in service.
Aqua Tech and IC&E staff made several adjustments and optimized the DI water output.
Van Sant DI completed its run cycle filling the tank.
4) IC&E staff relocated the low pressure gas switches on Units 1&2 main gas piping to the
boilers. In addition, the high pressure gas trip switch settings were adjusted slightly
higher to allow for slight deviations on the natural gas system.
5) IC&E staff received the parts for Units 1 and 2 spark igniter rewire. Each igniter was
rewired per the Warren Professional Control’s drawing design. New wire and trip relays
were installed and field tested. Each worked as designed.

6.0 General Plant Information
Training:
CEMS training on the QA/QC Manual was scheduled for the I,C/E Technicians.
Unfortunately, this had to be rescheduled to a date in early July due to work priorities and unit
operations.
As part of plant improvements, the NOx and CO2 analyzers were replaced. During the
replacement, plant staff members were able to get valuable hands-on experience on the
equipment.
Many staff members attended CPR and First Aid Training held at the plant site and led by
instructors from the Delaware Fire School. One class had to be rescheduled due to the
dispatch of the generation units. This class session is expected to occur in July.
A safety stand-down was put into effect at the end of the month. Vince Scire, Plant Manager,
worked with plant staff to implement a strategy that would aid in improving safety awareness
among plant personnel as well as heighten visibility and accessibility of plant management
among the employees.
Vince Scire attended a Frame 6 users meeting.
Personnel:
Art Morris, Senior Operator, retired as of June 30, 2011. Art spent approximately thirty years
working for the City of Dover. He was an asset to the company and to the plant. The absence
of his valuable experience will be felt among all staff members.

III. GLOSSARY
Energy Only Unit Cost ("EOU") accounts for the wholesale energy costs excluding capacity
obligations, capacity credits for Dover-owned generation, generation revenues, generating plant costs, the
black start ancillary services credit for the Van Sant plant, and revenues associated with the sale of
emission allowances. The AIE includes the costs from settling the hedged or forward transactions; the
energy bought on the ISO (Independent System Operator or PJM) day-ahead to cover the open position
(un-hedged); load following costs associated with balancing the actual load in the ISO real-time market;
energy management service related fees; the ISO transmission charges and credits to load serving entities;
the ISO ancillary services charges such as generation regulation, spinning reserve, and reactive power;
and the ISO administrative charges and cost of service recovery fees.
All In Cost of Service ("AICS") accounts for the net cost of wholesale power to the City of Dover
Electric Utility. The AICS starts with the AIE and adds the costs or credits from capacity obligations,
capacity credits for Dover-owned generation, generation revenues, generating plant costs, the black start
ancillary services credit for the Van Sant plant, and revenues associated with the sale of emission
allowances.
Black Start is a generating ancillary service that is the process of restoring a generating plant to service
without the support of an external power supply to power auxiliary equipment needed for start up
operations.
Capacity UCAP Obligated Purchased is the obligation and payment by all load serving entities in PJM
including Dover for the Unforced Capacity (UCAP) requirement from PJM that satisfies the PJM reserve
requirements.
Generation Capacity Credit: is the credit provided to generators for supply capacity to the system. The
price is determined by the PJM Reliability Pricing Market auction process that includes three auctions for
each capacity year.
Generation Production Margin accounts for the variable margin excluding variable O&M and
emissions. The Generation Production Margin is calculated by taking the PJM revenues credited to the
plant including any balancing charges or credits less the fuel costs. Generation Production Margin
includes both “Economic and reliability dispatch” and “Testing.” Economic and reliability dispatch
equals the margin achieved when Dover’s generating plants are dispatched by PJM for either economic
dispatch (the system energy price is greater than the Dover bid price) or reliability dispatch whereby PJM
pays the generating cost of the plants for the hours the plant is run to support the system. Generation
Testing equals the Generation Production Margin associated with testing. This is usually expected to be a
negative margin because the plant is potentially being dispatched / run when energy prices do not cover
its costs.
Non-Production Revenue equals the credits from PJM to Dover for Generation Capacity Credit, the
Black Start Revenue and the sales by Dover of Emission Allowances.
