For a 300 hp service, the credit would approximately cover the cost of the installation. Monthly service rates are based on Xcel's Secondary General Rate which contains both a monthly demand fee and usage fee. Currently the demand fee is approximately $12.55 per kw and the usage fee is $0.017 per kwh. The demand fee is charged each billing cycle that the pumps are operated regardless of how much total power is used. At the current rates, it would cost approximately $5550 to operate the pumps continuously for one monthly billing cycle ($2810 for demand, and $2740 for usage). The power requirement is the same for both pump configuration options considered. Pipeline Figure 15 shows the proposed configuration of the pipeline. The proposed pipeline consists of approximately 2450 feet of 36-inch diameter ductile iron pipe and approximately 5870 feet of 30-inch diameter ductile iron pipe. The 36-inch diameter pipe is required because the Cornish Plains Reservoir outlet discharges through the pipeline and must have enough capacity to lower the reservoir in accordance with the State Engineer's requirements. If the Cornish Plains Reservoir outlet does not have to discharge through the pipeline, the entire pipeline could be 30-inch diameter ductile iron pipe. Table 9 shows pipe capacities for gravity flow from Drury Reservoir and Cornish Reservoir. The maximum flow values are for conditions with Barnesville near empty and Cornish or Drury near full. The average values are for conditions with all reservoirs approximately % full.

The Company plans to purchase that land following approval of funding for the project. If significant obstacles to obtaining the property are encountered, the Company could invoke the power of eminent domain to obtain the property. A copy of the Deed-of-Trust for the land currently owned is contained in Appendix E. New Cache Feasibility Study 29
