From: Curtis Thayer, AEA Executive Director
Date: June 20, 2025
Re: Bond series 7 debt service payments and IRS subsidies
AEA receives a direct payment from the IRS equal to a percentage of the interest payments on
qualified bonds, including AEA’s series 7 bond. The series 7 subsidy is around $525,000 twice
annually and is built into the Bradley Project budget. The IRS’s issuance of this subsidy has
become unreliable over the past 12 months: AEA has seen delays in issuance, changes from
issuing by ACH to paper check and back to ACH, and paper checks have been sent to different
addresses. AEA staff have worked tirelessly to track down missing checks and attempt to correct
IRS mistakes.
A bond series 7 debt service payment is due on July 1, 2025. To make the payment in a timely
manner, funds needed to be transferred to the proper account of the Trustee by mid-June.
However, AEA was still awaiting the January 1, 2025, IRS subsidy. To cover the expense, AEA
transferred money from the Bradley Renewal and Contingency (R&C) Fund. When the late
1/1/25 IRS subsidy arrives, it will be deposited in the Bradley R&C Fund from which money was
borrowed to make the debt service payment.
The BPMC can provide guidance on how it wants this issue dealt with in the future. Options:
(a) Remove the subsidies from the budget. This will result in Bradley participants paying
more each month. However, an amount equal to the rate increase will accrue in the
project account upon receipt of the IRS subsidies and then will be returned to the
participants at the end of each year.
(b) Make bond series 7 debt service payments using money from the R&C Fund anytime
a subsidy payment is late. Refund the R&C Fund when the late subsidy payments
arrive. Monitor the R&C Fund and adjust the budget from year-to-year to ensure it
maintains an appropriate balance.
In any case, AEA staff will continue relentlessly pursuing timely receipt of the IRS subsidies.

REDUCING THE COST OF ENERGY IN ALASKA AKENERGYAUTHORITY.ORG
MEMORANDUM
TO: BPMC THROUGH: Curtis Thayer, Executive Director FROM: Jim Mendenhall, P.E., Program Manager DATE: June 18, 2025
SUBJECT: Railbelt Innovation and Resiliency Project, Phase 1
GRIP Topic 3, Round 1 – Update
DOE Information Request - In early May 2025, the Department of Energy’s Office of Inspector
General released a report on the implementation of the Grid Resilience and Innovation
Partnerships (GRIP) Program, following an inspection conducted between March and October
2024 in accordance with the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency’s
Quality Standards for Inspection and Evaluation.
The report identified that the Department’s Grid Deployment Office (GDO) did not develop and
document an effective internal controls system, including the control environment and risk assessment, as required. Further, GDO may not have sufficient staff to oversee the Federal activities that support the GRIP Program. The report contained recommendations that the DOE improve its internal controls and its implementation of the $10.5 billion Grid Resilience and Innovation Partnerships Program. As a result, DOE has issued formal data requests to 179 GRIP-funded projects, including AEA’s Cook Inlet Power Link (CIPLink), a complete response was due by 06/16/2025. AEA submitted a response on 06/13/2025.
DOE and AEA negotiated an initial budget for 10/17/2023 – 06/30/2025. Per our agreement and
based on our preliminary engineering report AEA has issued a “Go” recommendation to DOE for
the next budget period of 07/01/2025-06/30/2027. The estimate for the next budget period is
$62.6M, the majority of the costs are associated with pre-payments for the material and
equipment.
AEA is commencing work to secure permits for marine survey work for the summer of 2026.
Amount spent through 06/18/2025 is $1,086,268.

RE: Dixon Diversion Update
Engineering
Design efforts are ongoing, with a target of 30% design by January 2026 for submittal with the
Draft License Amendment Application. Focus effort has been on the diversion dam and tunnel
intake – optimizing inlet elevation and mitigating sediment buildup in the diversion forebay.
Board of Consultants meeting was held in February. AEA recently received and responded to BOC comments on the scope of work for the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) study. Next BOC meeting is targeted for late October to review latest design iteration, PMF, and seismic.
AEA submitted a Drilling Plan Program (DPP) to FERC for review and approval for drilling
boreholes in and around Bradley Dam in September. Boreholes will inform seismic stability of
the embankment dam and piezometers will be installed to monitor phreatic surface.
Hydrology work continues with frequent stream gaging trips on Martin River to refine stage-
discharge relationship. Probable Maximum Flood study expected to be complete in the fall.
Environmental
Aquatic, terrestrial, and cultural resources studies summer 2025 field season is on schedule, as
per approved Dixon Study Plan. This week, a crew is on site doing wetland delineation around
potential borrow source locations.
Licensing
FERC Draft License Amendment Application (DLAA) on schedule to be submitted in January
2026.
DLAA will include a 14-ft pool raise.
Budget
AEA will receive $4MM in FY26 state budget to continue Dixon licensing work (down from
$6MM).

Bradley Lake Project Management CommiƩee Report on Railbelt
Regional CoordinaƟon
June 20, 2025
Overview:
The Bradley Lake Project Management CommiƩee is focused on two main objecƟves: expanding
the project's capacity from 90 MW to its full potenƟal of 120 MW and ensuring the reliable and
resilient delivery of energy and capacity to all stakeholders. Moreover, the commiƩee is
commiƩed to addressing and eliminaƟng large-scale, small-signal instability oscillaƟons that
arise when the Bradley Project interacts with the summer valley during periods of low lake
levels. Consistent with SecƟon 32 of the Power sales agreement, which commits the
parƟcipants to seek a high-capacity interƟe between the Kenai and Fairbanks, a comprehensive
regional transmission plan, named the Grid ModernizaƟon and Resiliency Plan (GMRP), has
been developed.
The implementaƟon of GMRP is expected to yield several ancillary benefits, including a more
resilient and robust grid capable of withstanding extreme weather events and other disrupƟons.
The modernizaƟon efforts will enhance power transfer capabiliƟes between regions, reduce the
need for thermal reserves, decrease fuel consumpƟon, and cut carbon emissions. AddiƟonally,
the upgraded grid will beƩer accommodate variable clean energy sources.
This report outlines our acƟviƟes related to these efforts over the months of October and
November.
Contractors:
None
Grant Efforts:
State Match efforts
The Legislature adjourned with minimal acƟvity in this area.
Looking Forward:
During the APA legislaƟve fly-in we made with the delegaƟon aware of the potenƟal benefits the Beluga-
Healy AC transmission line alternaƟve could provide in electrificaƟon the southern porƟons of the
proposed AKLNG pipeline.
Other AcƟviƟes:
As noted previously, on April 3rd, I transiƟoned to a reduced (40%) role at EDRRC as I
begin assisƟng the Seward Electric System with their uƟlity management. However, I will
2
conƟnue to oversee the Federal Grant applicaƟons process and aid as required in state
and uƟlity match efforts.
This report reflects our conƟnuous commitment to enhancing the Railbelt region's energy infrastructure
and resilience, marking significant milestones in our journey towards a more sustainable and efficient
energy future.
