March 1, 2007 Report

An Overview

October 30, 2006 – Staff Workshop

2

Presentation Topics

Goals Increase efficiency while increasing the scope of subject

matter being reviewed Promote self-critical reviews

Old v New March Reporting Step through Vegetation Management as an

example Normalizing reliability indices

“Actual” – adjustments = “Adjusted” Report appendices: all the various metrics

3

What is our goal?

Storm Hardening efforts first discussed at the November 29, 2005 Internal Affairs

Storm Hardening Goals – are general public interest goals Minimize damage due to major

weather related events Minimize restoration times

following major weather events Minimize the number and

magnitude of rate increases Reliability activities affect non-

storm days and storm days. Efficient use of resources Promote utility self-critical

review through reporting

4

Old Report Process(Storm Hardening, Pole Inspections & Other Reliability

Indices)

File summary data – without utility self-critical discussion or analysis Staff requests selected detailed data Trends in detailed data discussed/disputed with

utility Interpretations of trends in data

discussed/disputed with utility Management Audits Drill-down audits of data records supporting

summary reports.
