DOCUMENTS ee yenPO&M AGREEMENT SECONDARY OPERATOR AGREEMENT SITE CONTROL DOCUMENTS GRANT AGREEMENT R&R FUND ACCOUNT --SAMPLE DOCUMENTS City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 1 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN I,EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Business Operating Plan (the "Plan”)provides a guideline for the City of Nowhere's (the "City””)maintenance,operation and sustainability of a new Bulk Fuel Storage Facility (the "Facility”). The City will be responsible to operate and maintain the newly installed Facility and to ensute its ongoing sustainability.This plan has been developed to assist the City with that effort:it estimates operation and maintenance needs and costs,estimates renewal and replacement needs and costs,and a per gallon surcharge for fuel.The surcharge should be reviewed and recalculated annually. The Bulk Fuel Upgrade Project will construct a new Bulk Fuel Storage Facility in Nowhere that will reuse or replace all of the existing storage facilities of the City and School.The City will utilize its facility assets to operate City owned utilities and will directly retail fuel. Upon construction,the Facility will be turned over to the management of the City (the "Primary Operator')after the satisfactory completion,as determined by the Alaska Energy Authority (AEA) of its representative,of a 14-day test period.After this test period,AEA will provide written notice (Certificate of Substantial Completion)that the Facility is ready for Beneficial Occupancy.Upon receipt of this Certificate,the City will become the Primary Operator and will assume responsibility for the use,day-to-day operations,and long-term maintenance of all Facility components,except those noted elsewhere in the plan.When the Project has been completed (the Facility is complete, crews have demobilized,invoices have been paid and there are no outstanding issues),the AEA will issue,through its Grants Manager,a Notice of Project Completion.This Notice is included in the Grant Agreement;see Additional Related and Attached Documents. This Plan focuses on wholesale operations only.Additional costs that will be borne by the end-user include fuel costs and other retail operation and maintenance costs (defined later in this Plan). These additional costs are not part of this Plan.See Table G:Summary ofFacility Expenses to Participants for the estimated per gallon fuel surcharge. Document Interrelationships The Business Operating Plan is a plan,not an agreement.Attached to this Plan are: O&M Agreement Secondary Operator Agreement Site Control Documents Grant Agreement R&R Fund Account --Sample Documents The O&M Agreement and the Secondary Operator Agreement reference the Plan,and includelanguagerequiringtheplanbefollowed.The Plan takes effect after these agreements are executed.Acceptance of the Plan by execution of these Agreements is pre-requisite to funding from theDenaliCommission(the "Commission”),which will be provided through a separate Grant Agreement (See Attachments). City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 2 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN II.BACKGROUND The Denali Commission was established by the Federal Government to fund improvement projects within the State of Alaska,including the Bulk Fuel Upgrade Project.The Alaska Energy Authority is a state-owned corporation that assists in the development of safe,reliable,and environmentally sound energy systems for Alaska's communities.AEA will coordinate the planning,construction and funding of the Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility,which is to be partially funded by the Commission. The village of Nowhere is located in southcentral Alaska on the Westside of Cook Inlet, approximately 46 air miles west of Anchorage.Transportation to the village is by air or water,and the river is generally ice-free from June through October.Currently,Nowhere has a 3,500-foot gravel airstrip that the State of Alaska,Department of Transportation and Public Facilities maintains. The population of Nowhere,predominantly Athabascan,has remained relatively stable for the past thirty years and the economy of the area is primarily focused on commercial fishing and subsistence activities.All 80 households and facilities use individual wells,and,all but four,are either connected to a piped sewage system or use septic tanks.Pip Be sy Pp The City provides most utility services;it owns and operates the washeteria,health clinic,wastewater utility,electric utility and cable utility.The City operates all of these utilities as enterprise activities. Selected demographic and historical data for the community is provided below: Selected Statistics -Nowhere 'Population ot SU RAE PA nee BE Lad 2000 200 1990 159 1980 134 1970 112 1960 94 1950 88 :Housing (2000 Data)Oe eat a ee TNS Occupied Housing 80 Vacant Housing Due to Seasonal Use 10 Other Vacant Housing 4«Economic Data (1990 Data)(S20 0 Unemployment Rate 25.5% Median Household Income $15,250 City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 3 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN III.Facttiry UPGRADE The Bulk Fuel Upgrade Project will construct a new Bulk Fuel Storage Facility in Nowhere that will replace all of the existing storage facilities of the City and the Nowhere Area School District (NASD)(collectively referred to as the "Participants”). Bulk Fuel Storage Facility Description The AEA contracted with Acme Engineering,Inc.to develop a Conceptual Design Report (CDR), which was submitted to AEA on December 15,2001.The purpose of the CDR is to provide a concept design and construction cost estimate for consolidation and upgrade of bulk fuel storage in the community,which are referenced in this Plan.This Plan is predicated upon the information contained in the CDR and its acceptance by the community. The new Facility will be located just south of the airport and in close proximity to the existing facility.The Facility will consist of a single pad and dike with both the City and NASD facilities located within the dike. Project Exclusions The BFU project does not include the following: ¢Decommissioning of existing tanks or environmental cleanup -AEA coordinates with DEC,which performs cleanup (pending available funds) e Retail business:including licenses,revenue,prices,taxes,profits,or contributions to the wholesale fuel storage program The AEA and the Commission will not provide any guarantees,warrantees or ongoing support, other than that which is defined in the Plan.However,manufacturer warranties will be transferred at the time of project turnover (defined in Section V.Primary Operator).

Turnover and Assumption of Responsibilities /Sustainability The Facility will be turned over to the Primary Operator after the satisfactory completion,as determined by AEA or its representative,of a 14-day test period.After this test period,AEA will provide written notice (Certificate of Substantial Completion)stating that the Facility is ready for Beneficial Occupancy.Upon receipt of this Certificate,the City will become the Primary Operator and will assume responsibility for the use,day-to-day operations,and long-term maintenance of all Facility components,except those noted elsewhere in the plan. When the Project has been completed (the Facility is complete,crews have demobilized,invoices have been paid and there are no outstanding issues),the AEA will issue through its Grants Manager a Notice of Project Completion.This Notice is included in the Grant Agreement;see Additional Related and Attached Documents. The Primary Operator is responsible for the long-term sustainability of the Facility for the benefit of the local community.The complete Facility will be maintained according to guidelines outlined in this plan,all manufacturers'recommendations for maintenance,and all State and Federal laws,codes and regulations governing operation.The Primary Operator is responsible for the transfer of fuel and no costs for this activity are included in the Plan. The Primary Operator is responsible to establish and manage accounts for O&M and R&R to ensure that sufficient financial resources exist to sustain the Facility as specified in the Plan. Staffing and Training The Primary Operator will designate an Operations and Maintenance Manager (the "Manager”for the Facility.The Manager will be the point of contact for communications between the Primary Operator,the Commission and all other interested patties.The Primary Operator will name the Manager prior to the start of operation and will inform the Commission in a timely fashion whenever a Manager is to be replaced.The Manager will manage the Primary Operator 's enterprises and will be given complete responsibility for operating the Facility in compliance with this Plan. It is recognized that there will be,from time to time,turnover in various operational,maintenance and administrative positions.Because all functions are essential to the successful operation of the Facility,replacements will be recruited and trained as necessary.The Manager will be responsible for maintaining adequate staffing and training at all times.When the Primary Operator lacks trained operators and administrative staff,training will be obtained to ensure sustained Facility operation. The Primary Operator will utilize training programs offered by AEA,the Alaska Vocational Technical Center (AVTEC)in Seward,the Commission and other training programs. City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 9 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN Financial Responsibilities There are two cost categories that will be incurred in the ongoing operation and upkeep of the Facility -O&M and R&R. The Primary Operator will incur a number of expenses relating to the O&M of the Facility.O&Mitemsaredefinedasexpensesthatareincurredonaregularbasis(administration,audits,etc)and maintenance expenses that are incurred on an annual basis.O&M expenses are detailed in Tabs B: Annual O&M Schedule and a narrative detail is provided in Section IX:Financial Information to address estimates and assumptions.Certain Facility components are common to all Participants,and the O&M costs of these items will be properly allocated,prorated according to fuel storage capacity to all Participants as defined in Table_A:Participant Allocation. R&R costs are those expenses defined as items costing greater than $5,000 and/or that are not replaced on an annual basis.Tab D:40 Year R¢7R Schedule details the anticipated items,the frequency of their replacement and their present day value.Certain Facility components are -common to all Participants,and the R&R costs of these items shall be properly allocated,prorated according to fuel storage capacity,to all Participants as defined in Table A:Participant Allocation. Participants will make annual O&M and R&R contributions on a mutually agreeable date,as specified in the attached O&M Agreement.The contribution will be made directly to the Primary Operator,which will deposit contributions into separate accounts.The Primary Operator will maintain separate O&M and R&R accounts and will maintain a sufficient account balance to meet the O&M and R&R financial goals in this Plan.The O&M account may be an active non-interest bearing account,while the R&R account must be an interest-bearing,managed savings account, which requires two signatories and a community resolution for withdrawals,until such time as the cash balance makes an escrow account more cost effective;then the R&R account must be transferred to an interest-bearing invested escrow account that is acceptable to the Denali Commission.The Manager will be authorized to draw against the O&M funds for routine expenses of the Facility,however individual expenditures in excess of $5,000 will require the authorization of the Primary Operator's management or governing body.See Appendix A:Statement ofQualifications for an overview of the Primary Operator's fiscal controls and accounting procedures. At least once a year,no later than December 31,the Primary Operator will develop a budget for the upcoming calendar year,January 1 through December 31,for both O&M and R&R,and will distribute copies to each participants. Operations and Maintenance Guidelines The Primary Operator will establish an active non-interest bearing account for the Facility O&M so that the O&M schedule can be completed and the Facility operations can be sustained into the future.Section IX:Financial Information provides Tabk B:Annual OC*M Schedule as a guide to plan for annual maintenance activities and Table C:40 Year O¢™M Cashflow as a guide to estimated yearly O&M required contributions.These costs are based upon the O&M cost estimate provided by HMS,Inc,see Appendix B:O&M and R&R Cost Estimate. The Primary Operator of the Facility will be responsible for the majority of the O&M of the Facility. The NASD will be responsible for the O&M of its facilities,and as such,these costs are not included as part of this Plan. City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 10 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN Renewal and Replacement Guidelines The Primary Operator will establish a Bulk Fuel Facility managed savings account ot interest-bearing invested escrow account acceptable to the Denali Commission,which will ensure capitalization of an amount sufficient to maintain the R&R Schedule.It is assumed that the R&R activities for Year 20 and Year 40 will be funded 40%from the R&R account and 60%from debt financing,at 5.5%over 10 years.Section VIL:Financial Information provides Table D:40 Year RR Schedule as a guide to plan for annual R&R activities,Table E:40 Year R¢>R Cashflow as a guide to estimated yearly R&R required contributions,and Tabée F:Loan Schedules as a guide to Yeat 20 and Year 40 R&R loan assumptions and payment schedules.These costs are based upon the R&R cost estimate provided by HMS,Inc,see Appendix B:O&M and R¢7R Cost Estimate. When applicable,the Primary Operator will periodically remit R&R funds to the administrator of its R&R escrow account,according to guidelines to be established by the Denali Commission. Management and other fees charged by the escrow fund administrator will be automatically deducted from the Primary Operator's R&R escrow account,according to an Escrow Agreement or other similar document. The Participants will use the estimates in this Plan for year one contributions,and in subsequent years will recalculate contributions based upon assets to be maintained as actually built. Audits and Reporting The Primary Operator will arrange for an annual financial reconciliatory audit that is conducted by qualified,independent auditors at their office.The auditors will not travel to Nowhere unless the Primary Operator requests an on-site audit.The Primary Operator will provide an annual report of operations to the Commission that includes a summary description of O&M and R&R projects, annual O&M and R&R budgets and expenditures,a projection of future O&M and R&R cash flows, and any other information appropriate to the Facility.The Commission will review the reports and the annual financial reconciliatory audits of Facility operations and will actively monitor the Primary Operatotr's ability to operate consistent with guidelines outlined in this Plan.The Commission has reserved the right to visit the site and to access all books and records related to the Facility at any time upon written request. City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 11 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN VI.SECONDARY OPERATOR The Secondary Operator for the Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility project will be determined in the future by the Denali Commission,if the need arises.See the attached Secondary Operator Agreement for details. City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 12 of 24 -=eeSAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN VII.INSURANCE The Primary Operator is required to be insured for General Liability Insurance,which is estimated to be 10 cents/gallon based on the City throughput.The Primary Operator will include the cost of General Liability Insurance in the annual O&M costs. The Nowhere Area School District is considered self-insured and thus will not contribute to any insurance costs for its facilities. City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 13 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN VIII.REGULATORY COMPLIANCE The Primary Operator is responsible for ensuring the operation and maintenance of the storage tanks and transfer systems that they own and operate are compliant with state and federal requirements.The Primary Operator shall comply with the procedures established in the spill prevention and response plans listed below and will maintain and be familiar with the following regulatory plans: e US Coast Guard Facility Response Plan (33 CFR Part 154)/EPA Facility Response Plan (40 CFR Part 112)-This plan establishes spill response procedures and organization for the tank farm.It commits the Participants to maintain adequate spill response equipment and to conduct annual training and drill programs. e US Coast Guard Operations Manual (33 CFR Past 154)-This plan describes the required procedures to be followed by each Participant when off-loading fuel from marine vessels to the tank farm. e US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures Plan (SPCC)(40 CFR Part 112)-This plan confirms compliance of the Facility with the spill prevention and operating requirements of 40 CFR Part 112.A Registered Professional Engineer must certify the plan. These plans include commitments and guidelines for spill prevention,response,and other related environmental information to ensure the environmental integrity of the Facility and the community. The plans will be developed near the end of tank farm construction.The Primary Operator will participate in development and review of the plans as requested.Estimated expenses have been provided herein and include the anticipated costs of implementing the plans,ensuring the reliability of the spill response equipment,maintaining the proper records,and conducting periodic spill drills. The Primary Operator shall ensure the plans are approved,maintained,and updated in accordance with Coast Guard and EPA requirements described in the plans. The Primary Operator will receive initial spill response training pursuant to the above referenced plans.A training class will be held on or about the time of the completion.Designated spill responders and representatives of the Primary Operator shall attend the training. City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 14 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN IX.FINANCIAL INFORMATION All estimates and assumptions contained in this Plan are preliminary and are anticipated to change as the Project progresses.Actual expenses may vary throughout the life of the Facility and these estimates should not be considered final. Key Financial Assumptions Annual inflation rate of 1.5%. Annual investment rate of 3%. Provision for insurance is estimated to be 10 cents/gallon of City throughput. Year 20 and Year 40 R&R activities will be funded 40%from the Primary Operator's R&R account and 60%from debt financing,at 5.5%over 10 years. e R&R funds may be deposited into an interest bearing invested escrow account.Fees are assumed to be 1%. e Detailed assumptions regarding labor rates,required labor hours,and other operating costs are provided in the tables that follow. e Annual expenses equal annual revenues. e Existing debt,or other obligations,of the bulk fuel Facility are not included in this Plan. Key Operating Assumptions e NASD is assumed to be responsible for the O&M and R&R of its own facilities. e NASD will pay its proportionate share of O&M costs and R&R costs of Common Facilities. e O&M and R&R Expenses associated with Common Facilities will be allocated to each participant based on its share of installed primary storage capacity or as detailed in the O&M Agreement Appendix A:Partiapants'Operational Responstbilities. e Retail operations,or its profits,are not included in the Plan.

City of Nowhere Bulk Fuel Facility Business Operating Plan Page 24 of 24 SAMPLE BULK FUEL BUSINESS OPERATING PLAN CITY OF NOWHERE Organization History The village of Nowhere is located in southcentral Alaska on the Westside of Cook Inlet,has a population of 200,predominantly Athabascan,which has grown steadily for the past thirty years and the economy of the area is primarily focused on commercial fishing and subsistence activities.All 80 households and facilities use individual wells,and,all but four,are either connected to a piped sewage system or use septic tanks.City,state and federal governments provide the primary year- round employment.Other employment is found through the school and private enterprises such as the local store and guiding businesses,although residents utilize some subsistence activities for food. Nowhere was the site of a trading post during the gold rush due to its location on the Westside of Cook Inlet,which connected southern gold mining districts to the Cook Inlet.Subsequently, Nowhere becamea winter trail station along the Cook Inlet Trail that was used until 1926.The school was established in 1948 and the post office was opened in 1949. The City incorporated in 1970 as a Second Class City.Today,all 80 households and facilities use individual wells,and,all but four,are either connected to a piped sewage system or use septic tanks. An electric power generation upgrade project is underway that will provide a new generator building for safer and more reliable power.Funds have been requested to rehabilitate the washeteria, develop two new wells,upgrade the landfill and expand the piped sewer system.The annual City budget is approximately $720,000. The City of Nowhere can be reached via air or water.The State owns a 3,500-foot gravel airstrip that was expanded in late 2001 in order to better accommodate the transportation needs of the area. Barges supply fuel and other supplies. Description of Business History The City of Nowhere manages the following utilities and services:water and wastewater,fuel,light and power,cable TV,building and road construction,and public works.Currently,community residents and organizations pay for all of these services.Residents and community facilities pay $17.50 per month for wastewater services.Residents and community facilities obtain water from individual wells or a community well and do not pay for this service. The City of Nowhere purchases fuel approximately one time per year from either Cook Fuel or Inlet Marine.Fuel is purchased between $1.85 and $2.10 per gallon/diesel.Residents and commercial businesses currently pay $3.00 per gallon/diesel fuel and between $3.50 and $4.00 for unleaded fuel. In addition,the City owns the facility that houses the Nowhere Health Clinic,city offices,post office,library,and recreational center.The city is responsible for operations of the public library, recreation center and cable TV services.

The Primary Operator will incur a number of expenses relating to the O&M of the equipment.O&M items are defined as expenses that are incurred on a regular basis (administration,audits,etc)and maintenanceexpensesthatareincurredonanannualbasis.O&M expenses are detailedin Table B:Annual O&M Schedule and a narrative detailis providedin Section VIL:Financial Information to address estimates and assumptions. R&R costs are those expenses defined as items costing greater than $5,000 and/or that are not replaced on an annual basis.Tab D:40 Year R¢>R Schedule details the anticipated items,the frequency of their replacement and their present day value. The Primary Operator will maintain separate O&M and R&R accounts and will maintain a sufficient account balance to meet the O&M and R&R financial goals in this Plan.The O&M account may be an active non- interest bearing account.The Manager will be authorized to draw against the O&M funds for routine expenses of the Facility;however,individual expenditures in excess of $5,000 will require authorization of the Primary Operator's management or governing body.See Appendix A:Statement ofQualifications for an overview of the Primary Operator's fiscal controls and accounting procedures.The R&R account must be an interest-bearing,managed savings account,which requires two signatories and a community resolution for withdrawals,until such time as the cash balance makes an escrow account more cost effective;then the R&R account may be transferred to an interest-bearing invested escrow account that is acceptable to the Denali Commission.See Attachment 5:R¢*R Fund Account --Sample Documents,for examples of acceptable R&R account agreements and a sample community resolution that limits the use of the funds to R&R expenses only. At least once a year,no later than November 30,the Primary Operator will develop a budget for theupcomingfiscalyear,January 1 through December 31,for both O&M and R&R.This will include an updateofactualexpensesandprojectionsandassumptionsusedinthisPlan,as described in Section VIII,Financial Information,Subsequent Operating Year Revisions.Additionally,Tables A-I should be updated. Operations and Maintenance Guidelines The Primary Operator will establish an account to fund the Facility O&M so that the O&M schedule can be completed and the Utility operations can be sustained into the future (this is anticipated to be an active non- interest bearing account).Section VIII:Financial Information provides Table B:Annual OC*M Schedule as a guide to plan for annual maintenance activities and Table C:40 Year OM Cashflow as a guide to estimated yearly O&M required contributions. Renewal and Replacement Guidelines The Primary Operator shall establish an interest bearing escrow managed renewal and replacement accountacceptabletotheDenaliCommission,which will ensure capitalization of an amount sufficient to maintain the R&R Schedule (see R&R Fund Account -Sample Documents for "How to Establish a R&R Account').Section VIII:Financial Information provides Table D:40 Year R&R Schedule as a guide to plan for annual R&R activities and Table E:40 Year R&R Cashflow as a guide to estimated annual R&R required contributions.These costs are based on the R&R cost estimate provided by HMS,Inc.See Appendix B: O&M and R&R Cost Estimate.
