THIS Agreement, dated as ofthis;"~ day of September, 2000, by and between the CITY OF

The City is undertaking a street improvement program at South 320th Street between

101003296 (the "Conversion Area"). The street improvement program includes auxiliary turn lanes,
curb, gutter, sidewalk, and pavement overlay.
C.
The City has expressed a desire to participate with the Company to cause the existing
overhead distribution power system within the Conversion Area to be replaced with a comparable
underground distribution power system utilizing above ground transformers.
D. The parties wish to execute this written contract in accordance with Schedule 71 of the
Company's Electric Tariff G to govern the installation of such a system.
ORIGINAL
AGREEMENT
The Company and the City therefore agree as follows:
1.
"Main Distribution System," "Underground Service Lines," and "Trenching and
Restoration" shall have the meaning set forth in Schedule 71.
2.
Subject to the availability of equipment and materials, the Company, at its expense
except as otherwise provided herein, shall furnish and install a Main Distribution System within the
Conversion Area, in accordance with the Company's standard specifications.
3.
Upon connection of those customers to be served by the Main Distribution System and
removal of facilities of any other utilities, which may be connected to the poles of the overhead
system, the Company shall, at its expense, except as otherwise provided herein, remove the existing
overhead system (including associated wires and Company-owned poles) of 15,000 volts or less
within the Conversion Area.
4.
The City shall, at its expense, perform the following within the Conversion Area, all in
accordance with the Company's specifications.
(a)Trenching (including shoring, flagging and barricades) and Restoration (including
restoration of streets, sidewalks and private property); and
(b) surveying for alignment and grades for vaults and ducts. Other utilities may be permitted
by the City to use City-provided trenches for the installation of their facilities so long as such
facilities or the installation thereof do not interfere with the Company's Main Distribution System or
the installation or maintenance thereof.
5.
The City shall, within thirty (30) days after the completion of the work to be
performed by the Company pursuant to paragraphs 2. and 3. above, remit to the Company a payment
of 30% of the actual costs as determined in accordance with Schedule 71.
2
The total cost is presently estimated at Five Hundred Eighty Five Thousand dollars ($585,000.00);
provided, however, the foregoing estimated amount is subject to change if:
(a) construction has not started within 90 days from the date of this Agreement; or
(b) the conversion is not been completed within 180 days of the date of this Agreement; or
( c) the City revises its construction plans in a manner which requires a revision of the
Company's construction plans; or
(d) the Company incurs costs to obtain easements pursuant to subparagraph 8 of this
Agreement.
Should the forgoing estimated amount increase by more than ten percent (10%) the City shall have
the right to cancel and terminate this agreement. Upon termination the City shall pay the actual costs
incurred by the Company to date.
6.
The Company shall own, operate and maintain all electrical facilities installed
pursuant to this Agreement including, but not limited to, the Main Distribution System and
underground services installed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.
7.
Except with respect to those customers for which underground converSIOn IS
determined not to be necessary, the City shall notify all customers within the Conversion Area that
secondary service to such customers must be converted from overhead to underground service. Upon
the request of any customer, other than a single family residential customer, within the Conversion
Area, the Company will remove the overhead system and connect such customer's underground
service line to the Main Distribution System.
8.
The Company shall provide reasonable assistance in obtaining operating rights as may
be necessary to permit the Company to construct, operate, repair, and maintain all electrical facilities
installed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

The Company shall not be required to bear the costs of any necessary easements. The cost to the
Company of any easements on privately owned property which the Company must obtain shall be
reimbursed in full by the City pursuant to paragraph 5 above.
9.

with the street improvement program within the Conversion Area. The Company shall not be required

installation of the Main Distribution System and shall schedule such construction to minimize
interference from the installation of other improvements.
10. The Company's performance hereunder shall be commenced within a reasonable time
following receipt of the written notice pursuant to Paragraph 9 above. The Company shall use

Company shall be scheduled to avoid premium labor charges to the Company. If the Company

changed within the hours of 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., the City must provide sufficient advance notice to
allow the Company to provide IBEW Local Union No. 77 with five (5) days advance notice in
accordance with the Company's collective bargaining agreement with the union. Any overtime labor
not included in the original estimate but provided by the Company at the request of the City may
increase the Company's project cost which will result in an increased cost under this Agreement to the
City.

Tariffs, in a form or forms satisfactory to the Company, to allow the Company to construct, operate,

the Company, its employees or agents.

80 of the Company's electrical Tariff G and to Schedule 71 of such Tariff, as such Schedules may be
revised from time to time upon approval ofthe Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission.

shall be resolved in favor of such tariff provisions.

location or route whereby the Main Distribution System will not have to be relocated as a
result of the City's actions or requirements for a period of twenty (20) years.

Company under any previous agreements pertaining to the existing or future facilities of 115 kV or
greater within the Conversion Area.

the Company's employees shall be considered employees of the other Party.

signed by the Parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties'
successors in interest, heirs and assigns. Any provision of this Agreement which is declared invalid or
illegal shall in no way affect or invalidate any other provision. The venue for any dispute related to
this Agreement shall first be the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission, Olympia,
