NCPA THIRD PHASE AGREEMENT
WHEREAS, the Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) has
evaluated a proposal by Henwood Associates, Inc. to sell the output
of a 440 kilowatt nominally rated hydroelectric facility near
Graeagle, California, and the results have been positive and NCPA
has negotiated a contract for the purchase of the entire power
output of the facility; and
WHEREAS, the NCPA Third Phase Agreement providing for
NCPA member participation and the associated rights and obligations
under the contract has been drafted, and NCPA Counsel and the NCPA
Commission have reviewed the Third Phase Agreement and recommended
its approval by the Participants; and
WHEREAS, the City of Alameda Bureau of Electricity's
review of this matter indicates that the Bureau should participate
in this project as a member of NCPA, either alone or with others.
WHEREAS, the City Attorney for the City of Alameda has
approved the Third Phase Agreement as to form; and
