AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH ARENTFOX SCHIFF LLP, AS OUTSIDE COUNSEL, FOR ASSISTANCE WITH THE 2024 EFFLUENT LIMITATION GUIDELINES RULE, IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $275,000.00 AND AUTHORIZING A SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION IN THE SAME AMOUNT TO FUND SAID PROJECT, AND FURTHER AUTHORIZING THE USE OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND REGULATORY INITIATIVES AND REBATE FUND (ERIRF) FOR SAID PROJECT, FOR THE OFFICE OF PUBLIC UTILITIES
This ordinance approves and authorizes the execution of an agreement with ArentFox Schiff LLP (“Schiff”) in an amount not to exceed $275,000.00. The Office of Public Utilities anticipates that the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”) will issue a final regulation in the spring or summer of 2024 that will impact the water discharges from the Utility’s pretreatment system which discharges to and receives additional treatment from the Sangamon County Water Reclamation District. In 2019, USEPA updated these water discharge requirements (ELG Rule) and CWLP was required to comply with the same effluent limitations mandated for plants that discharge directly to streams. However, CWLP was forced to comply by October 2023 while other facilities will not have to comply at all because the 2025 compliance date will not have arrived before the rule is amended. CWLP is the only plant in the nation that is subject to and has already complied with this requirement for indirect dischargers. CWLP is seeking the assistance of Schiff, as outside Counsel, to evaluate CWLP’s legal options concerning this new regulation. In the event it is determined that litigation would be necessary and appropriate, Schiff has agreed to cap the total fees for this project at $200,000.00 for the initial appeal and Petition for Stay and an additional $75,000.00 for the appeal for a total not to exceed $275,000.00. As proposed, USEPA’s new rule would require CWLP to implement a zero liquid discharge technology that has many negative environmental consequences for air and waste pollution when compared to the current system. If CWLP’s comments are not incorporated into the final rule, CWLP will have to act quickly once the rules are adopted and need to retain outside counsel in time to react to the rules immediately upon issuance. The Office of Public Utilities has worked with Schiff on previous legal environmental matters. Schiff is not a local vendor. This ordinance also authorizes a supplemental appropriation to fund said project. Previously, Ordinance 221-06-16 was passed, approving a change to the City of Springfield’s Code of Ordinances, Chapter 50 Electric Utility, by adding a provision to Ch. 50.19(g) ERlRF, which states that any expenses from the ERIRF Fund shall only be used for costs of environmental and regulatory initiatives or customer rebates, as determined by the Mayor and City Council. Therefore, requiring an ordinance for expenditures of this accounting line.

DIRKSEN PARKWAY AND 3215 EXECUTIVE DRIVE, FOR THE OFFICE OF PUBLIC UTILITIES
This is a new ordinance authorizing an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Illinois Department of Transportation (“IDOT”). IDOT is planning to have two new buildings constructed at the Hanley Complex located at 2300 South Dirksen Parkway (a new warehouse) and the District 6 Headquarters located at 3215 Executive Drive (a new material laboratory). Both of these locations are within the City limits and the Office of Public Utilities currently provides electrical power services to the existing structures at those locations. This Intergovernmental Agreement provides for the construction of CWLP electric facilities to serve these sites. CWLP will construct and install 1500 linear feet of primary electrical conduit, 4 primary vaults, and electrical transformers. Per the agreement, IDOT will reimburse for costs up to $47,892.70 based on the CWLP engineering estimate.

AN ORDINANCE APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF A LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH DIVERSIFIED DOCK SERVICES LLC FOR SHORELINE STABILIZATION WORK AT LAKE SPRINGFIELD FOR THE OFFICE OF PUBLIC UTILITIES
This is a standard ordinance to authorize a contractor to perform shoreline stabilization work at Lake Springfield. This ordinance adds another contractor, Diversified Dock Services LLC to the list of those approved for shoreline stabilization work on Lake Springfield. The City allows lake leaseholders to make shoreline improvements on their respective leaseholds, providing contractors enter into a license agreement with the City for said improvements, including the adherence to the terms and conditions of the City's Department of Army Permits Nos. CEMVR-OD-P-2013-0073 and CEMVR-OD-P-2015-314. These permits are effective through December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2026, respectively. The license agreement regulates the manner in which work is performed by the licensee and provides for said work under the authority of the City's Department of the Army Permits.

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE 488-12-19 TO RESTATE AND AMEND THE AUTHORIZED GENERATOR INTERCONNECTION AGREEMENT IN RELATION TO THE MISO J750 PROJECT BETWEEN THE CITY OF SPRINGFIELD, ZEP GRAND PRAIRIE WIND, LLC AND MIDCONTINENT INDEPENDENT SYSTEMS OPERATOR, INC. (MISO), FOR THE OFFICE OF PUBLIC UTILITIES
Ordinance No. 488-12-19 authorized a Generator Interconnection Agreement (GIA) in relation to the MISO J750 Project between the City of Springfield, ZEP Grand Prairie Wind, LLC and Midcontinent Independent Systems Operator, Inc. (MISO). The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) requires Transmission Providers to provide reliable, non-discriminatory access to the electric transmission system. ZEP Grand Prairie Wind has proposed a 150 MW wind farm connecting to CWLP’s Westchester 138 kV Substation. The original GIA outlined terms for ZEP Grand Prairie Wind, connecting the proposed wind farm to the CWLP transmission system. As a transmission owner, CWLP is required to allow access to the transmission system. However, CWLP is not obligated to purchase any electricity-related product from the proposed wind farm. The agreement details the proposed generating facility, the required transmission system upgrades to connect the proposed generating facility, the reimbursement and construction schedules for the project, and the operating requirements for the wind farm. It provided for an up-front payment schedule of all costs, including engineering, material, and construction costs for the modifications required to the CWLP transmission system. It also allowed for the interconnect customer to request a temporary and limited suspension period, thereby delaying the commercial operating date (COD) of the project. That allowance has been executed, and all resultant terms, schedules, and costs have been updated for the new COD. As per the original ordinance and MISO queue process, CWLP is to be made whole all directly resultant costs from this transmission interconnection project (estimated in 2019 at -$3,669,481.00+). Due to cost escalations for construction, equipment, and engineering services in the delay period from the original ordinance in 2019 to 2024, the costs owed to CWLP have been updated in the GIA, agreed to by all parties, and are reflected in this modified ordinance ($-6,900,157.00).
