AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Meeting Date: September 22, 2008
From: Jack Rogers, Gas Director
Subject: Resolution authorizing the execution of Amendment No. 2 to the current Gas Transportation Agreement with Cutrale Citrus Juices, USA, Inc.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of a resolution authorizing the execution of Amendment No. 2 to the current Gas Transportation Agreement with Cutrale Citrus Juices, USA, Inc.
Analysis:
The current Gas Transportation Agreement with Cutrale Citrus Juices, USA, Inc. will expire October 1, 2008. Cutrale has agreed to a two year extension of the current agreement. The proposed amended agreement provides for this two year extension at the current rate for service. In addition, the agreement will renew annually thereafter unless cancelled by either party.
Options:
- Approve the resolution authorizing execution of Amendment No. 2 amending the Gas Transportation Agreement with Cutrale Citrus Juices, USA, Inc.; or
- Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate
Fiscal Impact:
The natural gas capacity used by this contract will increase the natural gas system load factor and thus continue to reduce the cost of gas to the remaining retail customers by approximately five cents ($0.05) per therm. Assuming a normal fruit season, net revenue for the coming fiscal year should approximate two hundred thousand dollars $200,000.
