Given this there isn't any reason for a more aggressive schedule. Additional discussion took place as to maintenance on various sections of the Tie near the southern end. Reports of patrols and work completions. Monte provided a report of items found during recent patrols.There was significant jacking of anchor piling in the Broadpass area.Struct #539,549,562,566,and 568 all have jacking anchor piles from 2.5'to 5.5'.These will have to be readjusted and monitored in future.At some point if movement continues reinstallation will have to be addressed.Also structures in the Moody canyon area are still showing signs of continued movement,particularly structure #739.This structure was re-clipped to relieve strain on static arms about 2 years ago. Work Schedules remainder FY: Monte presented work plans for the remainder of FY2000 including the above mentioned guy adjustments.Don and Bob planned battery change outs in the near future in addition to the normal line patrols. Vv Structures 297 &274 progress reports: Stan reported that he had visited the above mentioned sites with Dryden and Larue personnel.They had prepared a proposal to assess and recommend a permanent repair for $8500.00.Subcommittee discussed the subject towers and agreed the lOC should grant the funds.Stan reported that the State had used a Micro-pile technology on some of the lines in Southeastern and had great success.The installation tool only weighed around 4000 Ibs.making it possible to use a smaller type helicopter for transporting it into remote sites. Additional Items: A.Stan reported that he had received the final reports and legal documents to address the access question on the tie.The maps were made with overlays that would go over a USGS standard 1mi.to section maps.As soon as they had made up packets the state would disseminate them to the operators and maintainers. B.Stan reported he had received notice from MATSU Borough regarding a "Tall Structures”ordinance that was to be implemented and to reply by 8/31/99.He had received the notice early in December.When he presented the information on the transmission structures to the Borough he received a late fee assessmentintheamountof$4900.00.He contacted the Attorney General and will take no action to pay said fee until its determined to be valid. Bob provided some background on the ordinance and said it was originally set at a 35 ft.level and changed to 100 ft.after some comments by taxpayers.He suspected if the Borough Assembly was contacted the fee would be waived. C.Paul reported on work performed over the summer on Teeland Substation including the SVS.A reactor had failed toward the end of the FY and while the repair was in process a broken insulator was found on one of the capacitor racks. When the crew went to repair it the top of the insulator fell on the ground.He passed around some pictures and pointed out what appeared to be staining on some of the individual capacitors.He was wondering if any other members had encountered a similar situation.Apparently the capacitors are working fine.

Training We propose training for field maintenance technicians that would take up to one day and address the following: How unbalanced snow loads may reduce ground clearance. Instrumented tower locations. System Documentation. Instruments installed and how they work. How to check instrument operation in the field. Data logger operation. Downloading data logger programs and setting parameters. Battery Replacement The batteries currently installed in the SLMS towers will need to be replaced before the winter. We understand that the batteries have been reconditioned and are currently at MEA.We propose to provide the following services to assist in this task: e Assist with battery replacement in all towers. e Assure proper communication and operation of all towers after battery replacement. e Investigate towers 231 and 150 to determine necessary repairs. Matanuska Electric Assn.,Inc.August 21,1998 Mr.Bob Mau Page 2 Maintenance Routine maintenance and repairs to the system will be needed from time to time.We propose the following scope of services for maintenance and repairs: e Provide assistance as needed for troubleshooting including analyzing data in advance of site visits to prepare a troubleshooting checklist and accompanying MEA personnel to the site for system checkout and repair. Assist with the replacement and repair of the malfunctioning inclinometer at tower 23. Assist with the replacement and repair of the malfunctioning load cell at tower 120. Assist with the replacement of power supply cable to datalogger at tower 231. Assist with the necessary repairs at tower 150 as determined by field investigation. Coordinate with the system supplier SSI and manufacturers for warranty service and repairs.Note that warranties begin expiring in early September. e Visit the weather stations at Douglas and Stevens substations in early fall to clean rain gages,install leaf guards and to check relative humidity and temperature sensor calibration. We understand that ML&P's Chief Dispatcher,Doug Hall will be responsible for notifying us of the need for assistance with maintenance and for scheduling. In addition we understand that "Extraordinary Maintenance"will be needed that includes responding to system alerts to make field observations of the line's behavior.We propose the following scope of services: e Revise guidelines for data to be collected and reported during field observations with a form to be filled out for each trip based on last years experience. e Assist with line patrols by helicopter and snow machine or snow cat to make the observations needed for correlation of instrument readings to field conditions. e Periodically observe the base station operation and review recent data. We understand that in general we will accompanya utility representative and that helicopter and snow machine or snow cat transportation will be furnished.We have estimated that 10 tower alert investigations will take place this winter.We have estimated one day of labor costs to assist in the necessary repairs at tower 231 and tower 150.We have estimated one day of labor to replace the inclinometer at tower 23 and a separate day to replace the load cell at tower 120. Alert Notification Procedures: We understand that the following steps will be taken when an alert is received: e If,when we call in to check the base station status,we see an unacknowledged alert: -Between 8:00 and 17:00 we will call ML&P's Chief Dispatcher directly and inform him of the alert. -Between 17:00 and 8:00,or if the Chief Dispatcher is not available,we will call ML&P Dispatch to inform the dispatcher of the alert. Matanuska Electric Assn.,Inc.August 21,1998 Mr.Bob Mau Page 3 e If a dispatcher receives an alert he will notify ML&P's Chief Dispatcher who will determine whether the alert should be investigated. e ML&P's Chief Dispatcher will consult as needed with MEA,GVEA and D&L to determine whether the alert should be investigated and the best method of investigation. e If someone from D&L is needed to accompany the utility people investigating the alert, ML&P's Chief Dispatcher will call Dryden &LaRue to authorize a field trip and give us directions about when and where to meet the utility personnel who will be investigating the alert. System Development System development is the process of developing guidelines for interpreting the data reported to the Dispatchers by the SLMS.This will include correlating instrument readings taken during snow loading events with the field observations made during investigations of alerts.This information will be used to improve the alert settings and to develop operational guidelines for the dispatchers.How soon final alert levels can be determined and operating guidelines can be developed depends a great deal on how often heavy snow loading incidents occur and how successfully data is collected in the field during the events. Due to the uncertainties about the data that will be available,under this task we propose to review and organize the data for review by the utilities.The tasks of revising alert levels and developing operational guidelines can be undertaken under a separate authorization when enough data has been collected to produce meaningful results. Punch List Attached is a "punch"list of things needing attention. Schedule Attached is a proposed schedule.Note that we need about two weeks after approval of the scope of services to prepare for the Field Technician training session. The west inclinometer at tower 23 and the load cell at tower at tower 120 need to be replaced. This will require an outage.At this stage in the development of the system we do not think a special outage should be taken.We suggest that the replacement be made during the next scheduled outage. We will continue quarterly reports of our activities. Current Status of Spare Equipment and Materials Currently,the spare equipment and materials are at three locations.Dryden &LaRue has the spare datalogger cabinet,cellular transceivers,inclinometers,the spare load cell and some tools and small parts.GVEA has the spare battery cabinet and the spare wire and cable.MEA has the spare batteries and the battery charger.A detailed list of the equipment and materials and their location is attached. Matanuska Electric Assn.,Inc.August 21,1998 Mr.Bob Mau Page 4 Budget We estimate the proposed services for September 1998 to July 1,1999 will cost $58,900. Attached is a detailed cost estimate.We propose to bill our services on a time and materials basis in accordance with the attached fee schedule.

Training We propose training for field maintenance technicians that would take up to one day and address the following: e How unbalanced snow loads may reduce ground clearance. ¢Instrumented tower locations. e System Documentation. e Instruments installed and how they work. e How to check instrument operation in the field. e Data logger operation. ¢Downloading data logger programs and setting parameters. Battery Replacement The batteries currently installed in the SLMS towers will need to be replaced before the winter. We understand that the batteries have been reconditioned and are currently at MEA.We propose to provide the following services to assist in this task: e Assist with battery replacement in all towers. e Assure proper communication and operation of all towers after battery replacement. e Investigate towers 231 and 150 to determine necessary repairs. Matanuska Electric Assn.,Inc.August 21,1998 Mr.Bob Mau Page 2 Maintenance Routine maintenance and repairs to the system will be needed from time to time.We propose the following scope of services for maintenance and repairs: e Provide assistance as needed for troubleshooting including analyzing data in advance of site visits to prepare a troubleshooting checklist and accompanying MEA personnel to the site for system checkout and repair. e Assist with the replacement and repair of the malfunctioning inclinometer at tower 23. e Assist with the replacement and repair of the malfunctioning load cell at tower 120. e Assist with the replacement of power supply cable to datalogger at tower 231. e Assist with the necessary repairs at tower 150 as determined by field investigation. ¢Coordinate with the system supplier SSI and manufacturers for warranty service and repairs.Note that warranties begin expiring in early September. ¢Visit the weather stations at Douglas and Stevens substations in early fall to clean rain gages,install leaf guards and to check relative humidity and temperature sensor calibration. We understand that ML&P's Chief Dispatcher,Doug Hall will be responsible for notifying usof the need for assistance with maintenance and for scheduling. In addition we understand that "Extraordinary Maintenance”will be needed that includes responding to system alerts to make field observations of the line's behavior.We propose the following scope of services: e Revise guidelines for data to be collected and reported during field observations with a form to be filled out for each trip based on last years experience. e Assist with line patrols by helicopter and snow machine or snow cat to make the observations needed for correlation of instrument readings to field conditions. e Periodically observe the base station operation and review recent data. We understand that in general we will accompany a utility representative and thathelicopterand____snow machine or snow cat transportation will be furnished.We have estimated that 10 tower alertinvestigationswilltakeplacethiswinter.We have estimated one day of labor costs to assist in the necessary repairs at tower 231 and tower 150.We have estimated one day of labor to replace the inclinometer at tower 23 and a separate day to replace the load cell at tower 120. Alert Notification Procedures: We understand that the following steps will be taken when an alert is received: e If,when we call in to check the base station status,we see an unacknowledged alert: -Between 8:00 and 17:00 we will call ML&P's Chief Dispatcher directly and inform him of the alert. -Between 17:00 and 8:00,or if the Chief Dispatcher is not available,we will call ML&P Dispatch to inform the dispatcher of the alert. Matanuska Electric Assn.,Inc.August 21,1998 Mr.Bob Mau Page 3 e If a dispatcher receives an alert he will notify ML&P's Chief Dispatcher who will determine whether the alert should be investigated. ¢ML&P's Chief Dispatcher will consult as needed with MEA,GVEA and D&L to determine whether the alert should be investigated and the best method of investigation. e Ifsomeone from D&L is needed to accompany the utility people investigating the alert, ML&P's Chief Dispatcher will call Dryden &LaRue to authorize a field trip and give us directions about when and where to meet the utility personnel who will be investigating the alert. System Development System development is the process of developing guidelines for interpreting the data reported to the Dispatchers by the SLMS.This will include correlating instrument readings taken during snow loading events with the field observations made during investigations of alerts.This information will be used to improve the alert settings and to develop operational guidelines for the dispatchers.How soon final alert levels can be determined and operating guidelines can be developed depends a great deal on how often heavy snow loading incidents occur and how successfully data is collected in the field during the events. Due to the uncertainties about the data that will be available,under this task we propose to review and organize the data for review by the utilities.The tasks of revising alert levels and developing operational guidelines can be undertaken under a separate authorization when enough data has been collected to produce meaningful results. Punch List Attached is a "punch”list of things needing attention. Schedule Attached is a proposed schedule.Note that we need about two weeks after approval of the scope of services to prepare for the Field Technician training session. The west inclinometer at tower 23 and the load cell at tower at tower 120 need to be replaced. This will require an outage.At this stage in the development of the system we do not think a special outage should be taken.We suggest that the replacement be made during the next scheduled outage. We will continue quarterly reports of our activities. Current Status of Spare Equipment and Materials Currently,the spare equipment and materials are at three locations.Dryden &LaRue has the spare datalogger cabinet,cellular transceivers,inclinometers,the spare load cell and some tools and small parts.GVEA has the spare battery cabinet and the spare wire and cable.MEA has the spare batteries and the battery charger.A detailed list of the equipment and materials and their location is attached. Matanuska Electric Assn.,Inc.August 21,1998 Mr.Bob Mau Page 4 Budget We estimate the proposed services for September 1998 to July 1,1999 will cost_$58,900. Attached is a detailed cost estimate.We propose to bill our services on a time and materials basis in accordance with the attached fee schedule. Thank you for the opportunity to participate in the operation of the system. DRYDEN &LaRUE,INC. Alan B.Peabody .

Peiroleum firms share information openly to meet Year 2000 deadline snne Rhodes Associate Managing Editor News ith the Year 2000 deadline bearing down,petroleum companies are in the midst of solving a technological prob-lem with a scope never before seen in this,or any,industrv. This high-tech,data-intensive busi- cess is fraught with potential Year 2000 pitfalls,and companies are taking acareful,measured approach to finding and remediating these problems.Their approach includes the painstaking process of inventorying software and equipment,searching for potential date problems,fixing any noncompliant "omponents that are found,and testing Ae remediated systems to determine "hether their efforts have been suc- cessful. Oct.5,1998 ©Oil &Gas Journal But petroleum companies'Year 2000 programs have also included an open sharing of information with competi- tors that seems unprecedented (see re- lated story,p.24).It is this sharing,and the realization that the interdepen- dence of the industry necessitates such cross-pollination,that makes oil com- panies-especially the majors-quite confident that they will be prepared for the Year 2000 when it arrives (see relat- ed story,p.26). Date traps For an industry that can visualize underground formations in four di- mensions,drill for and extract oil in the world's most treacherous ocean envi- ronments,and make clean-burning transportation fuels from heavy oil,the problem of a date abbreviation in com- puters might seem easy to solve. Technologically speaking,it is.But the Year 2000 problem still presents many challenges.These result from:the complexity of a highly integrated and automated industry,the difficulty of finding all the potential date problems because of this high degree of complex- ity,and a lack of time and resources available to solve the problems that are uncovered. 23 The formation of joint ventures and mergers between former com- petitors is common in the oil in- dustry.But does working with a partner complicate a company's Year 2000 program? The answer,according to British Petroleum Co.plc and Mobil Corp.,who have united their Euro- pean downstream operations,is: No. The early stages BP and Mobil agreed to form a European refining JV in 1996 (OGJ, Mar.4,1996,p.40).The two men now in charge of their respective Year 2000 preparedness programstoldOGJ,in a joint interview,that the so-called millennium bug was not a substantive factor in the JV discussions. "When we were originally going through the joint venture discussions,systems aspects were obviously important,”said Stephen Ind,millennium IT project manager for BP."What they did was to go through the Mobil sys- tems and the BP systems on the ground and discuss which was bet- ter on its merits.” More important,said Ind,was that BP was running its down- stream business with a recent ver- sion of Oracle Corp.software.Mobil's downstream business,on the other hand,was running an earlier version of SAP that was not "millennium-compliant”said Colin Bull,Mobil's regional executive champion for the millennium. Had it not been for the forma- tion of the JV,Mobil would have had to update its SAP version. Bull said "I think we both,coin- cidentally,pursued the strategy of looking for an integrated set of business applications...I think most companies in the industry are pursuing that strategy. "We...both had integrated busi- ness systems-Mobil's around SAP and BP's around ISP (BP's own re- {BP-Mobil:Year 2000 programs enhanced by fining and distribution software)and Oracle.They are similar sys- tems strategies but use different platforms.” Meshing Y2K programs "We started off by effectively treating the entire joint venture as if it were part of the BP project,” said Ind,"and then worried about picking up the pieces afterward, because that was the safer route to cover.Therefore,I included in my round of tours anything that took my fancy,because of its size and importance to the joint venture as a whole.” Bull said,"The driving princi- ple,probably in the back of every- one's mind,is that,when the joint venture was set up,IT support and other staff support for the joint venture would come from BP ser- vices.” Ind said he had had discussions on the Year 2000 issue with Mobil's office in Fairfax,Va.,after the JV was formed,but it wasn't until Bull was appointed to his currentpositionatthebeginningof1998thatthetwofirmsbegantoformu-late and document a joint strategy."Our view of the scope and the relative priorities-in terms of how we deal with systems,customers, suppliers,and that kind of thing- are very similar,”said Bull."T think it's fairly easy for Stephen to reassure Mobil management that BP would basically approach the millennium issue the same way that Mobil would.But what we've subsequently done is formalize how that process works.”The companies'relationship dif- fers slightly in the area of lubri- cants.While Year 2000 staff sup- port for the overall joint venturecomesfromBP,the lubes side of the JV's businessis operated by Mobil,which has made things in- teresting,says Bull."It's made easier by the fact that Mobil and BP are essentially ap- eh GKdownstreamJV proaching the issue on a similar timeline,with similar management prioritization and near-identical scopes.So there's not really a lot ofpotentialfordisagreementstohap-pen,”he added. Cooperation Ind says the JV has facilitated, rather than hindered,his Year 2000 program:"It's very helpful,be- cause it means that anybody who does take their eye off the ball has got two sets of people down their necks.It's quite constructive in that sense.” Bull sees the situation the same way:"Because of the very open re- lationship that we have with BP, we are able to sort of test ideas on how we might approach some- thing-be it the strategy we havewithcustomersorsuppliers.And we've got very open lines of com- munication. "T think we're both learning from each other.I would say it's probably helped us move more quickly,if anything.” "Absolutely,”said Ind."It works in other types of joint ven- tures in the same way.We have joint-venture refineries,for exam-ple,where it's very useful to havethatcross-fertilization of ideas. And also it means that,if you have a joint-venture audit team,for ex- ample,looking at a facility,you'vethengottwosetsofescalationrou- tines if the auditors come across things they're not content with. 'Tt means the motivationis __ there,to some extent,more readily than if it is just one company,”Ind added. "Yeah,I would say it's evenmoreapplicableinasituationlikethis,because none of us have actu- ally worked a project like this one before,whatever we may pretend,” said Bull. "There's a real advantage to co- operating,not ordy with people that you've formed the joint ven- "Major facilities like refineries and chemical plants are operated using highly sophisticated control technolo- gy,”states Royal Dutch/Shell's web- site."There may be thousands of em- bedded (computer)chips in the plant run with several layers of networks (see table,p.29). "In an extreme case,if safety-critical criteria at a plant cannot be met,then the plant can be shut down.But what 24 happens,for example,to the continu-ous gas supply from North Sea fieldsintoBritain-a stream heavily con- trolled by IT (information technology)systems?Will it just be switched off if the safety-critical issues are not re- solved?” Addressing the problem Thomas McAndrew,senior partner in Computer Sciences Corp.'s consult- ing and systems integration divisio Boston,says companies must ask th selves three questions in order to tatheYear2000problemandsolv comprehensively: ¢How do I manage a program could topple the enterprise?*How do I bring my enterpris:gether as one?¢How am I going to mitigaterisk? Oil &Gas Journal «Oct.5, ialentseinenaatbutaltaeeeeianeteetures with,but across the industry generally,”he added."There are other forums that are proving veryusefulforbeingsurethatwe're ap- proaching some of this in the right way.” In addition to the business oper- ations aspect of the Year 2000 prob-lem,it also presents an engineering challenge that has never before been faced,says Ind. "How to look at process control technology only really grew fromearly1997onwards.We were reallymakingthatscienceupaswewentalong,”he said."Tt made a lot of difference to beabletoholdhandsacrossthein- dustry and say,'Well,we think this,What do you think?' "And we didn't have time to slow down.So we got a tremen-dous boost of speed by being abletolookoverthefence. "And nobody's really drawn a competitive barrier on that,trying to pretend that there's any kind ofedgetobegainedfromnotsharinginformation.It has been very good.Particularly,with having this joint venture,there has been a verybroadlevelofcooperation. "T think,”said Ind,"havingspreadthethinkingprocessacrosssomanyworld-class engineers,and bringing in our suppliers-alotofwhomweresupplierstobothMobilandBP,as well as other oil companies-we've been able to draw in every grain of in-formation very rapidly.That hasbeennecessaryandextremelyuse-ful.a Progress Both companies are well into the testing stage of their Year 2000 programs by now (see story,p.23).And they expect essentially to fin-ish their programs by yearend1998. "That's generally the approachthatistakenbyblue-chip compa- nies in our industry,”said Bull. Ind says BP will finish its busi- ness-critical systems by yearend, leaving other,less important items to be handled in 1999. "On the whole,we'll get there (by yearend),”said Ind,"although there will be one or two pieces hanging over because of things like delivery dates of software.” Bull agreed:"Essentially,we're both aiming to get everything fin- ished that is business critical and to focus our energies in the first half of 99 on contingency planning and getting a good fix on where our suppliers and customers are going to be.” Potential liabilities Asked if the joint venture posed any complications in terms of legal liability,Bull said,"It's like any- thing else in life.It depends which lawyer you talk to.” The first thing one does,when approached with an enterprise- wide project like Year 2000,says Bull,is examine one's legal op- tions:"And that doesn't really lend itself to getting the kind of dia- logue that you need with critical suppliers that are essential to mak- ing yourself as well prepared as you might be. "Collaboration,opening up the lines of communications,and things like that-I don't think we'd have been able to do that without formal cooperation with joint ven- ture partners. "There's an awful lot of spuri-ous information out there about what will and won't go wrong,” said Bull,"and collaboration,I think,is essential to dividing one's way through that. "Certainly,the process of trying to collaborate and share informa- tion across such bodies as the API (American Petroleum Institute) and Ukooa (U.K.Offshore Opera-tors Assocation)did falter for a lit-tle while,”said Bull,"while lawyers got concerned about what public domain.” the industry could meaningfullyshare(see Part 1 of this series,OGJ, Sept.28,1998,p.29).But I think,generally,there has been a wayfoundthroughthat. "The industry is characterized by so many cross-ownerships and percentages that it would be very hard to start withholding informa- tion.What we're all very careful to do is not to represent anything without very clear information. "So,by and large,”said Bull, "as we try and find out whether a piece of kit is prone to problems or not,our initial route is via the ven- dor and whatever factory test they've done,whatever testing regime they've been through.And it orly makes sense that the indus- try,in general,should share that information and put it in the pub- lic domain. "IT won't say that every vendor has sorted his way through that maze,”said Bull."We've certainly got the odd company that is being very reticent about sharing infor- mation.And,in some cases,the in-.. formation thatis in the public do--main has been misleading.le"But,certainly as regards MobilandBP,it's clear that we're ina -«is.joint venture,and it's clear that we : have to get information from the |-.: vendors.And it's clear that we're :-.going to have to go througha thor--:ough program to satisfy regulators coandeverybodyelse.=«"We've been through that pro-gram,and it really shows us tha'we can't presume to withholdin formation.What we have to be <careful to do is not to be inflamma:tory when we express our opinionsaboutwhetheronepieceofkitor.one business partner is ready.”.

Shell's Year 2000 team started byidentifyingandprioritizing"safety-critical and business-critical systems.”The U.K.Health and Safety Executivehaspublishedasafetydecisiontreetohelpcompaniesmakethesedetermina- tions (see diagram,p.30). Many operating units in the Shell group of companies began carrying outauditsin1997todeterminethescaleof their Year 2000 problems and to devel- Oct.5,1998 ©Oil &Gas Journal op a plan for solving them by yearend 1998.Meanwhile,an inventory of the potential effects of the problems was tallied in order to assess the magnitude and cost of remedial action.Upon com- pletion of the audits,operating units began carrying out remediation plans. Shell's policy is to assume that every system is at risk unless it is demon- strated to be otherwise. Another approach taken by Shell is to involve all levels of the organization in finding Year 2000 problems. Nick Thompson,manager of the Shell Information Services Year 2000 support team,said,"There are so many things that can be affected that we need all the help we can get.Everyone should be on the lookout for potential problems. "We are saying to all staff in all fields of operations that they could be 25 Oil and gas officials told a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission meeting that the industry is mak- ing good progress on the Year 2000 computer problem. The American Petroleum Insti- tute said a recent survey of more than 800 oil and gas companiesfoundthatnearlyathirdofrespon- dents expect to be "Y2K-ready”by December,73%will be ready by June 1999,and all respondents willbereadybyDecember1999. The survey said 36%of oil and gas industry respondents are in the T API:Oil industry making good progres £O IEEE 2 a process of fixing computer soft- ware to accommodate the Year 2000 glitch.Another 19%are in the process of validating the results of their work. Regarding embedded hardware systems,28%of industry respon- dents said they are assessing the problems,while 26%are in the process of fixing their systems. And 14%are in the process of vali- dating the results of their work. Oil and gas industry officials told FERC the commission needs to work on the Year 2000 dilemma with the electric power generation, ps eAeatie cages bile transmission,and distribution in- dustries and with the telecommu- nications industry because of their interdependence with the oil and gas industries. API is coordinating oil industry Year 2000 mitigation efforts,and the Natural Gas Council is coordi- nating for the gas sector.Activities include:sharing information on technical issues,testing,and con- tingency planning;identifying and resolving legal issues,including legislation;and communicating within the industries and with the public. the person who identifies potential problems first.Nobody has the inside edge on this issue,because it is a weird and unique event.Everyone should try to think around this,and,if they come up with something,do not be shyaboutraisingitbecauseofthefalseas- sumption that there are people whohavespotteditalready.” Remediation The process of fixing Year 2000 problems involves three key steps:identifying components that have a date sensitivity,testing those compo- nents to determine whether they are Year 2000 capable,and fixing those that are not.Any items that are remediat- ed-software or hardware-must then be checked to determine whether the solution is effective. Complicating the issue is the factthat2000isaleapyear,even thoughtherehasbeensomedoubtabout whether this is true,given the complexleap-year rules for years ending in two or more zeros.Nevertheless,software programs and control systems must also be capable of making this adjust- ment at the end of February. The Year 2000 problem places enor- mous identification,testing,and reme- diation burdens on a petroleum com- pany.These burdens can be divided into sections to facilitate problem solv- ing. British Petroleum Co.ple divides its Year 2000 project into three main sec- tions:IT systems,engineering process control,and intercompany relation-ships.Shell divides its program into asset integrity (includes control and monitoring systems on platforms and in process plants),business computing (IT,telecommunications,and infra- structure),and commercial integrity (relationships with outside parties). Amoco Corp.makes further distinc- tions,however.Its Year 2000 program 26 addresses: *Mainframe business computing systems. ¢Personal computers. ¢Plant process control systems. ¢Facility management systems. ¢Supply chain,including cus- tomers,suppliers,and business part- ners. Software In the area of software,firms must search for potential date problems in each of the many computer programs that they use. There are a number of commercially available tools on the market designed to test for and fix Year 2000 problems in software,but they are not infallible. There is no easy solution. For some companies,fixing soft- ware problems will involve imple- menting an expensive,Year 2000-com- pliant,enterprise-wide software sys- tem.But,because most firms also use software developed in-house,it will also be necessary for them to examine certain software code,line by line,and correct any problems that are found.BP's website addresses the difficul- ties involved in solving Year 2000 prob- lems in software systems:"Compilingtheinventoriesandassessingthemfor business impact have taken longer thaninitiallyenvisioned.We find that evena limited level of customized (software) systems forms a tough Year 2000 prob- lem. ",..Even some recently written ap- plications have been found at risk.Forexample,we have only recently fixedcreditcardprocessingatsomeretailsites,due to waiting for new software releases.” BP believes companies may find it necessary to evaluate 80%or more of all software code in their library.And programmers typically make three mis- takes for every 100 changes to program code,says the firm. A typical 250,000-line software ap- plication may require 7,500 changes,so a potential of 250 errors have to be found and corrected in testing,accord- ing to BP. Other estimates of error introduc- tion by software code writers are much lower:100 errors per million lines of code,says Systeme Evolutif Ltd.,Lon- don. Control systems In the hardware arena,oil compa- nies are presented with an even more complex challenge. Ina technologically intensive indus- try,companies operate thousands of pieces of equipment that may contain date sensitivity.The main source of this sensitivity is what is called "embedded technology”-computer chips that are "embedded”in equipment and thal communicate with a main control unit. Such devices include flow meters, transmitters,and "smart”valves, among myriad others (see photo,p.32). They are found in all sectors of the in- dustry-on drilling and production platforms,along the lengths of pipe- lines,and throughout process plants. A typical offshore platform or on-shore gas plant uses 50-100 embedded systems,said Shell U.K.Ltd.CorporateAffairsDirectorJohnMillsataPetrole- um Economist conference in April.Andthesesystemscancontainasmanyas10,000 microchips. In a process plant,devices contain- ing embedded chips are interconnected like an electronic spider web,makingtheproblemevenmorecomplexancthepossibilityofafailureevenmore likely. "We have found that up to half o! these systems are critical,in terms 0: production and the impact of our ac:tivities on the environment,”saic Mills. Oil &Gas Journal «Oct.5,1998 "el Some offshore oil and gas opera- tors still have no Year 2000 compli- ance program in place,and insur- ers should be wary of giving them coverage. That warning was delivered to a recent International Union of Ma- rine Insurance conference in Lis- bon. "Some companies appear to have no program whatsoever;oth- ers have indicated that they intend to implement superficial fixes such as trying to switch back all their computer clocks by 20 years,”said James Miller,chief engineer at the energy division of insurer AIG Eu- rope. "These companies should be of concern to insurers,”he said. Miller said the sector was vulnera- ble to extensive damage from the millennium bug-the problem caused because computer date sys- tems are unable to recognize the year 2000.Gas detection systems, control valves,fire pumps and monitoring equipment all rely heavily on embedded computer chips that could suffer from the bug if undetected,he said. "What might have been a very small or nonexistent claim could be magnified into a claim worth tens of millions of dollars,and the real- ization for these companies may come too late,”he said. (Insurerstold to bewaryof covering Y2NTpanes ce Industry compliance Miller said that task forces had been set up in the U.K.and Nor- wegian oil sectors,with a more ad hoc approach being taken in the Gulf of Mexico.He added that while most major oil companies had established compliance pro- grams encompassing their world operations,such an approach was not universal. "One national oil company has said they do not believe they have the (millennium bug)problem. This is despite the fact that they operate large integrated platforms with computer-based control sys- tems,”Miller said."Insurers should do whatever they can to verify their assured's state of readi- ness,”said Miller.He added that companies should have contin- gency plans in place in case they have missed something in their compliance programs. Contrary view However,Tim Weare,a Price Waterhouse partner currently on assignment in Colombia to updatethefinancialpackagesoftwareofoneoilmajor,disputes the claim that oil companies are not prepar- ing themselves for the Year 2000 challenge:"Certainly the oil majors are targeting significant invest- ments at updating their systems,in oe nf ane spite of the fact that major cuts in investment are having to be madeasaresultofpooroilprices.In- deed,I would say that the oil in- dustry is ahead of many other in- dustries in tackling the issue.” He estimates that it is costing oil companies "a couple of million dollars”per country just to update their financial packages,and possi- bly even more to update control and instrumentation software. "The reason for the high costs is that,in the case of financial pack- ages,the software has to be updat- ed to suit local requirements in areas such as taxation and licens- ing.In other words,the adaption has to be specially tailored for each country. "As for control and instrumen- tation,when the systems were in- stalled-often as long ago as 10 years-they were effectively frozenintime,since it was never realized that there was a need to upgrade them.The result is that now the whole system,and not just thesoftware,has to be upgraded-and clearly that requires significant amounts of investment.: 'Nevertheless,there is little doubt in my mind that oil compa- nies are seeing this as an unavoid- able cost and are making a huge amount of effort to get their sys- tems upgraded in time.” Steve Rowlands,Year 2000 project manager for CMG U.K.Ltd.,London, says the potential for major problems in control equipment is great:"It could take out a major part of the operation. "The best example I can think of is valves that control pipelines.(These)valves are designed to 'fail safe.'Be- cause they have a maintenance cycle built in,they will fail safe if they haven't been examined within a certain period of time.(In 2000),they (may) suddenly decide that they haven't been checked in 99 years. "Probably the oil industry is one of the most safety-conscious industries going.They build their systems to be safe,”said Rowlands,suggesting thattheseprecautionscanpresentmyriadYear2000traps. For Shell,after identifying critical embedded systems,the next step is to agree on a comprehensive plan of re- medial action.According to Mills, "This can involve chasing vendors for evidence that they will be able to cope with the Year 2000,testing the equip- ment,and developing contingency 28 plans in the event of a system failure."This action must be agreed, planned,and then scheduled with eachofatleast60vendors,”said Mills."It has to be extremely well coordinated and planned,as no shutdowns arescheduled.And the logistics of this ex- ercise are,of course,considerable.” Because of the number of embedded systems involved,Shell sees down-stream as the most difficult and costly area to resolve,with respect to the Year 2000 problem."A modern refinery relies heavily on automated control systems,”said Mills."The basic systems are usuallysuppliedbylarge,specialized compa- eee 35 G nies that are actively developing Ye: 2000-compliant upgrades.Howeve most control systems have many loc user applications added as enhanc ments.These all have to be checked fx hidden date dependency.” BP says embedded devices form central part of its Year 2000 work:"V have been working with suppliers | upgrade many systems to the level th they have certified as compliant ar (are)testing the site-specific applic tions. "Safety is paramount.Our reviev have not detected any new safety riskbecause,in the main,the ultimate saf ty systems are either not date-sensiti: or do not rely on programmable sy tems.

David Trim,a consultant with Shell Information Services'Year 2000 team, believes embedded systems in down- stream operations present the trickiest piece of the Year 2000 puzzle:"As far as process control is concerned,as yet,westilldonotknowthefullstory.We arefindingenormouslevelsofcomplexity, and this has to be understood. "For instance,one problem is find- ing people who can understand the whole picture in process control:at onelevel,you have IT people,and at an- other,the engineers.We have to under- stand the total picture.” External disruptions It is not enough for a company tosimplyfindandrectifyitsownYear 2000 problems.It also must work with outside parties,such as customers, goods and materials suppliers,technol- ogy vendors,service providers,joint venture partners,subsidiaries,and fi- nancial partners. An issue of great importance in Year 2000 programs is the possibility that a company can experience a failure as a result of another firm's computer sys- tems. A company does have some control over these external disruptions-gained through the exchange of pre-paredness assurances-but less than it has in testing and fixing its own sys- tems. Oct.5.1998 ©Oil &Gas Journal Exxon Corp.'s 1997 annual report somewhat softened its Year 2000 pre- paredness update by following it with admonishments regarding the possibil- ity of external disruptions:"Compre- hensive plans for achieving Year 2000 compliance were finalized during 1997, and implementation work was under way at yearend.While plans are in place,significant work remains to be done. "Most required systems modifica- tions are expected to be completed in 1998.Also during 1998,attention will continue to be focused on the compli- ance attainment efforts of vendors and others,including key system interfaces with customers and suppliers. "Notwithstanding the substantive work efforts described above,the cor- poration could potentially experience disruptions to some aspects of its vari- ous activities and operations as a result of noncompliant systems utilized by unrelated third-party governmental and business entities.Contingency plans are therefore under development in order to attempt to mitigate the ex- tent of such potential disruption to business operations.” In Shell's case,said Mills,"As a min- imum...we must satisfy ourselves that the contractors providing (drilling,en- gineering,seismic,and maintenance) services are paying enough attention to the...problem.This inevitably requires considerable effort and,above all,a co- operative approach. "Both operators and contractors must realize that they are in this thing together.No company in this industry can isolate itself from the problem.As an industry,we must be more open about our remedial plans and more willing to discuss the progress and pit- falls of meeting them.” The testing challenge In addition to the challenges of find- ing and fixing Year 2000 problems,the changeover to the new millennium in- volves testing on a scale never seen be- fore.BP says fixing the date problems in software programs before the dead- line is less than half the job. "Very little of this testing can be au- tomated,”said BP in an internal memo on the Year 2000 problem."Tools can reduce the effort by perhaps 2%,but much of the testing involves business units.” McAndrew said,"There is no single tool that identifies all of your date sen- sitivity,let alone fixes it,so you need people and processes as part of your renovation program.”He estimates that 40-45%of a company's effort will be taken up by testing. BP believes testing will consume 60%of the time and money spent on Year 2000 programs.Other estimates have ranged as high as 70%. McAndrew says this won't happen,not because it shouldn't,but because there isn't time.Programs aren't pro-gressing quickly enough,plans are not pragmatic or achievable,and he is not seeing contingency plans,he says. According to Rowlands,"The real challenge is in the embedded stuff.It's not a problem in terms of diagnosingandfixingthem.It's fixing them in time and testing them.” Companies know what equipmentthey've got and where the chips are,says Rowlands.So the first order of WORE Is there one or more additional protection essystem(s)for ensuring safety?<---- Yes [r° Is there anon-programmable Yes, back-up system? {No a Is there a non-programmable 3 YEAR 2000 SAFETY DECISION TREE = SoS eke Start Con sider the following tor each programmable system Possible failure of programmable control system Contribution:3* Increased likel Does the programmable |LTT EAE ORR system provide signals oreRERETTERAORNO5oesmeProgrammableNdatatoanysafety-related No system act asa 0 programmable system or aresystemhaveOoens?protection system?_data from it used for the :scheduling of processesYes|having an impact on safety, e.g.,proof testing,Yes Nene maintenance,etc?Is there a non-programmable back-up? ihood of ademand : on the non-programmable back-up system eyes Ten Contribution:1*:SS" Is there an additional *Ona scale of 0-6,0 being low criticatity,6 high.

Here,the liability issue arises again.It is not adequate to simply take themanufacturer's word that a device is Year 2000 compliant.Proof is necessary.On a case by case basis,says Row-lands,companies must decide which equipment or systems to test them- selves and which to send to the manu- facturer for testing. "The manufacturer is going to havetosupplyyouwithsomekindoffixor new system,”he said,and the nature of this will depend on the system in-volved.On some systems,faulty parts can simply be replaced.Others willhavetobeshippedoffforrepairorre-placed. In most cases,the user's goal shouldbetofixthesesystemsonsite.If a com- pany has 1,000 miles of pipeline,says Rowlands,it wouldn't want to shut the whole thing down and send off eachdevice.It would want to do it on a maintenance basis. Test methods The choice of testing methods is an-other complicated issue. "You have to do some specialist test- ing,”said Rowlands."You have to find a way of simulating the rollover.” According to an unpublished paper 30 by Kevin McGinty,Jennifer Hale,and J. Michael Burke,of Science Applications International Corp.(SAIC),there are three common methods of fixing Year 2000 problems:windowing,sliding windows,and date expansion. "Windowing applies logic to identi- fy if a date occurs before or after the year 2000,”said the three SAIC au- thors."Each company selects an appro- priate period of time for their particu- lar business,such as the years 2000-30. This period of time,or window,is com- pared against a two-digit year that is passed into it.If these digits match,or are within the range of the window, then it is assumed that the first two dig- its of the year are 20,ie.,2020.Any other date not in the window is as- sumed to be 19,i.e.,1975. "The sliding window is a variation that uses the same range but moves in- crementally forward.For example,in the year 2000,the window years are 00- 30;in the year 2005,the window years become 05-35.This continues until the problem reintroduces itself in the year 2075. "Date expansion is the third and most costly,but undeniably the most permanent,solution,”said the authors. "All data and all programs are modi-fied to accept the eight-digit date fields(mm,dd,yyyy).Most companies avoidthislastoptionbecauseofthesignifi-cant cost involved and the belief that all existing systems using one of the win- dowing techniques will be fully re- placed before future date logic prob- lems will surface.” The type of testing used should de- pend on the criticality of the item in- volved,says McAndrew.At the bare minimum,it is necessary to perform what is called a "time-shift”test,which tests all the different scenarios that could cause the Year 2000 problem. "True time-shift testing is an enor- mous undertaking,”said McAndrew. Simply changing the system date han- dles only about 10%of the potential problems,he warns. According to the BP memo,"Even the act of testing is perilous.For exam- ple,so-called time-machine tests (where the system clock is advanced to the year 2000)can bring down net- works and cause e-mail to be automat- ically deleted. "The magnitude of the testing task scares some managers into taking shortcuts-including the omission of entire testing procedures. "Just scheduling time to test Year 2000 fixes is a major concern,”the memo continues."Many disaster re- covery facilities are being used as test facilities,and scheduling their use forY2Kworkisquitedifficult.There is lit-tle open time left in their schedulesduringtheheaviestperiodsofexpected testing activity.” Oil &Gas Journal «Oct.5,1998 Preparedness It is difficult to assess the progress that has been made toward solving a problem ascomplexandfar-reaching astheYear2000bug. Trim said,"The exercise of just trying to understand the extent of the challenge that we face is quite awesome. "Frankly,some groups in Shell are much further ad- vanced than others in trying to grasp that.Some have completed an audit only to realize they have missed whole areas they needed to consider.” Nevertheless,the petrole- um industry appears confi- dent about its ability to copy with Year 2000 date-change glitches.As a general rule, petroleum firms started early and plan to finish early. Like many companies,in- cluding BP,Amoco Corp.,Chevron Corp.,and Kerr- McGee Corp.,Shell U.K.has set itself a target date of yearend 1998 for completingallremediationwork. "That's an ambitious pro-gram,”said Mills,"but it has to be. "We have deliberately built into our targets a yearfortesting,and for important contingency planning. "Our goal is achievable,” he said. "It is to develop and implementplansforallperceivedthreats,and to achieve assurance levels that reflect,in each case,the business criticality of thatthreat. "The aim is to reduce the impact oftheYear2000problemtomanageable levels in all areas-a target we are con-fident can be achieved.” Embedded technology is an issue that concerns many companies when it comes to preparedness.Although itis a recognized,very high-priority prob-lem,said Rowlands,companies seemtohaveitundercontrol. Having said that,he admonished that it is not until after the testing phasethatcompaniescanprovethatwhattheythoughtwascorrectwasactually correct. The plans are in place,he said,and companies are working against their own deadlines.Their goal,in general, is to have the systems in place by yearend 1998,and to iron out any re- maining problems in 1999. "There are cases where they won'trolloutthewholeproblemuntilmid- '99,That represents a risk they willhavetomanage. 32 This Year 2000-compliant Fieldvue "smart”valve,manufac- tured by Fisher Controls,contains embedded technology thatcontrolsflowratesandcommunicateswiththeoverallplantcontrolsystem.Each such embedded system must be checkedforYear2000readinessandrepaired,if necessary.This instal-lation is at Monsanto Co.'s Chocolate Bayou petrochemical plant at Alvin,Tex.Photo courtesy Fisher Controls. "They can always do things smarter and more efficiently,but they seem to have the thing under control.Control is about juggling balls,”said Rowlands. "You're lucky if you can keep them in the air.

"In Shell,”said Chris Fay, chairman of Shell U.K.Ltd., "we view Year 2000 as a coop- erative,not a competitive, issue. "No company is an island, and we all rely heavily on each other as customers,sup- pliers,and co-venturers. Given that this is one project that cannot cross its deadline, it is crucial that all concerned work together with real ur- gency to minimize the Year 2000 impact on all of us.” Shell's Mills agrees."We recognize that our responsi- bilities lie first and foremost in ensuring that our own sys- tems work as smoothly as possible in the run up to Day 1 of the new millen- nium,and indeed beyond,”said Mills, "but our wider responsibilities...go be- yond that immediate goal. "We must ensure that critical supply chains are not broken and that the basic infrastructure on which our business _depends is not affected.We need to work closely with contractors and small businesses supplying goods to us to ensure that they understand and are addressing the problem.” Shell has published guidelines and held workshops to help its smaller sup- pliers,which have less resources at their disposal,to solve their Year 2000 problems. Governments and industry associa- tions are also working to increase thesharingofinformationamongcompa- nies (see Part 1 of this series,OGJ,Sept. 28,1998,p.29). Ukooa has an active program of Year 2000 education,as does the U.K. Health and Safety Executive (HSE). API has formed a Year 2000 Task Force to help its members address Year2000problems.The general goal of thegroupistosharecommonproblems and solutions.

Field Work There have been no tower alarms reported by ML&P dispatch since December 1997.No field tower investigations were made this quarter. We became aware that the Base station was unable to contact Stevens Substation when Doug Hall of ML&P cailed on April 29,1998.We contacied John Scantlin of MEA and he reset the datalogger by turning it on and off on May 25,1998 and it has operated correctly since that time. Training - The training class for maintenance personnel has not been given yet and is still tentatively scheduled for this fall depending on the Utilities'wishes. Current.SLMS Status The.SLMS is currently operational and will remain so until battery replacement in the fall.Thetowersarebeingpolledeveryotherweekoverthesummertominimizecellularphonecostsandstillmonitorsystemoperation. ”Alaska Energy Authority June 30,1998 Mr.Stan Sieczkowski Page 2 Tower 120 -This tower is still experiencing erratic load cell readings.We reset the low alarm limit in the datalogger to -99,999 Ibs.This tower should at a minimum have the load cell disconnected until this problem is resolved. Tower 150 -This tower has not been successfully contacted since June 1,1998.Attempts to call this tower directly during its calling window have been unsuccessful.This tower did have some vandalism last spring,possibly by a bear.This tower should be investigated during a normal line patrol if not successfully contacted in the next few weeks. Towers 23,98,159,and 191 have had center phase inclination alerts that began late this winter and are still outside of "normal"limits.We believe that the inclinometer or entire insulator string itself twisted during the loading and unloading of the center phase conductors.The alarms for these towers have been expanded in the meantime to eliminate phone calls to the base station.The changes that were made are listed below: Center Phase Inclinometer Tower High Alarm Reset High Alarm 23 3.65°10° 98 1.85°10° 159 3.55°10° 191 3.55°10° These tower's alarm limits will need to be adjusted before next winter.Depending on what is found at these towers,or if normal inclinations do not return before this fall,adjustment of tower normals may also be required.We forwarded information on these towers'alarms including graphs of tower load and insulator inclination as well as the information on other towers that require attention to MEA on May 15,1998 so they could incorporate them into any line work planned for this summer.That information is being reiterated below for reference. Towers Requiring Work Tower 23 -This tower has had a defective inclinometer on the West phase inclinometer that was disconnected on November 5,1997.This inclinometer and associated wiring should be replaced. There are two spare inclinometers and associated wiring at Dryden &LaRue's Anchorage office. An outage will be required for this work. Tower 120 -This tower has been giving negative load cell readings since around April 13,1998. This tower was giving similar readings last fall.Along with MEA linemen David Kincaid and Harold Tesoro,we measured the resistance of the load cell and connecting wires Oct.9,1997 and all values appeared normal.We replaced the entire backplane of this tower's data logger and tightened some loose wires.The data logger operated correctly throughout the entire winter until this April.Rechecking all terminations and possibly re-terminating the wires attached to the load cell are the only suggested solutions short of replacing the entire load cell assembly. >*Alaska Energy Authority June 30,1998 Mr.Stan Sieczkowski Page 3 Tower 231 -This tower has not been contacted since April 1,1998 when the battery bank voltage dropped below 10.5 volts.This tower also died due to low voltage last spring.Last summer we visited tower 231 and took current measurements using a multimeter.The measurements were made through one entire measurement cycle.Measurements were made at the power supply connection to the data logger and all values appeared normal.We believe that the cable from the battery box to the data logger may have a high resistance fault in it and should be replaced.The new wire should be Part No.10170-P6 as shown in the installation purchase specifications.This wire is 2C/#16 AWG silver plated copper with teflon insulation and a white Teflon jacket.Golden Valley Electric Association,Inc.has all the spare wire from the installation of the SLMS.Any spare parts can be obtained by contacting Monte Irvin,tel:452-1151.The new wire should be meggered prior to installation.

P.O.Box 2929 Palmer,AK 99645 Reference:Anchorage -Fairbanks Intertie Snow Load Monitoring System Summer Maintenance In preparation for the coming summer season and possible maintenance opportunities on the Anchorage-Fairbanks Intertie,we have outlined the current status of the Snow Load Monitoring System and towers that may require attention. Tower Inclination Alerts Towers 23,98,159,and 191 have had center phase inclination alerts that began late this winter and are still outside of "normal"limits.All of these towers have positive inclinations.Since the center phase insulator is at an angle itself,any twisting of the inclinometer or insulator would also tilt the inclinometer.We believe that the inclinometer or entire insulator string itself twisted during the loading and unloading of the center phase conductors. On April 21,1998 Harold Tesoro was faxed attachment details of the center phase inclinometerandrequestedtoobservecurrentstatusofthesetowersonalineinspectiontripviahelicopter. He said that the-insulators appeared to be essentially plumb,but the inclinometers themselves appeared to be slightly tilted downward.This would support the theory of the inclinometer or insulator being twisted rather than actually have insulators swung that far out of normal position. We have attached graphs of the tower data at the time these events occurred and all inclination jumps are associated with line loading and unloading.Closer examination of these towers will be needed to determine a permanent solution.If the inclinometers have actually loosened up and twisted,they will Jikely require further work.If the insulator string itself has just twisted at the attachment to the tower vang,resetting of the tower normal and alarm values may be sufficient. O The alarms for these towers have been expanded in the meantime to eliminate phone calls to base station.

Field Work There have been no tower alarms reported by ML&P dispatch since December 1997.No field tower investigations were made this quarter. Spare inclinometers and load cell were obtained from Golden Valley Electric Association for use in the training classes and are currently at our office in Anchorage. Training Dryden &LaRue,Inc.conducted a full-day training class on the Snow Load Monitoring System at their offices on January 21,1998.This class included a discussion and demonstration of unbalanced snow loads and an overview of the SLMS operation.The base station software was set up on a local computer and operation of the system was demonstrated.A spare datalogger was also set up in the office and connected to a load cell inclinometer and air and battery temperature sensors to demonstrate their operation.Data collected by the SLMS in different alarm situations and subsequent field observations were also covered.The afternoon session covered more in-depth operation of the base station software and an overview of the program and parameters installed in the datalogger. This class was attended by personnel from CEA,MEA and ML&P.A video of the class was made, and copies were sent to ML&P and GVEA. Alaska Energy Authority April 21,1998 Mr.Stan Sieczkowski Page 2 Software A backup copy of the base station software,the Database Desktop Software CD,and installation instructions were sent to GVEA in preparation for a training class they requested be given in Fairbanks.This class has since been canceled by GVEA. Current SLMS Status In preparation for this report,a call to the SLMS base station was made,but calls were not answered. After the communications program PC Anywhere was restarted by ML&P dispatcher,the SLMS was contacted.It was then discovered that Tower 23,120,159,198 were in alarm and have been since mid-February.These alarms are currently being investigated. On April 20,1998,Tom Bassler went to ML&P to backup this winter's data.While there,the calling schedule for the towers was changed from semi-weekly to bi-weekly. Future Plans A training class for maintenance technicians originally planned for early March will likely be scheduled for September when MEA personnel can attend. There is still an inclinometer on tower 23 that requires replacement.An outage on the transmission line is required for its replacement.No replacement has been scheduled. If you have any questions do not hesitate to call. DRYDEN &LaRUE,INC.
