15 Page 3 A2 Please provide a rough breakdown of the $2 MM betweencash (or cash owed) and sweat equity

Response 15 DPP will have incurred direct development costs of approximately$2 million by mid-February 2005 This does not include the internalcosts or sweat equity of the sponsors or any costs from thevarious project stakeholders such as the EPC contractor the bankthe operations contractor etc All inclusive costs are estimated tobe well in excess of $2 million dollars over the period up to theaward and another $2 million over the three months from award tomid-February The above figures are conservative estimates

In addition to the expenses mentioned above DPP has made a $5million deposit related to the Asset Transfer Agreement and hasprovided development security of slightly over $30 million

16 Page 3 A3 Is sale of energy or capacity to Harmac or any party otherthan BC Hydro the intention of DPPLP

161 Are contractual arrangements with Harmac in place or underway

162 In DPPLPs opinion does BC Hydro have any contractual rightsunder its EPA to require DPPLP to sell this capacity or energy (orany part of it) to BC Hydro at any time

Response 16 Yes

161 No

162 Contractually BC Hydro has rights to 105 of 252 MW

17 Page 4 A3 How much additional capacity is available through duct firing

171 When will this capability be installed

172 What benefit if any will accrue to BC Hydro from such capability

173 If any of the plant components listed were upgraded to improveplant heat rate how would the resulting financial benefits be splitbetween BC Hydro and DPPLP

Response 17 Duct firing will provide approximately an additional 28-30Megawatts of capacity

171 All capacity will be operational by May 1 2007

172 The existence of capacity exceeding 105 of 252 MW providesextra insurance to BC Hydro that minor facility upsets in the

operation of the plant will not adversely affect the availability of thecontracted capacity Such potential minor operational upsets willbe first absorbed by the additional duct fired capacity

173 The resulting costs and financial benefits would accrue 100 toDPPLP

18 Page 7 A7 DPPLP state there were no surprises in the CFT processPlease if and how DPPLP anticipated that the term of the EPA would bechanged from 10-25 years as in the original CFT documents to 25 yearsminimum with a BC Hydro unilateral option to extend to 35 years Pleasesimilarly explain why DPPLP expected that the Independent Revieweroriginally allowed to talk to bidders would later be forbidden to talk tobidders and vice-versa

Response 18 In the team members experience it is quite common for theoffering party to refine the terms of CFTRFP processes mid-course as objectives and constraints become better known and toreflect the input of potential bidders In DPPs view although therewere substantive changes to the EPA during the process theprocess itself reflected no dramatic departures from the originallyindicated path This comment also reflects the fact that all partieswere kept appraised of ongoing developments in order to ensurethat everyone remained on an equal footing Specifically thetransition to the 25-year term resulted in a term that is consistentwith the life of the assets With respect to the independentReviewer at the time that DPP became involved in the CFTprocess bidders were not able to communicate directly with theIndependent Reviewer

191 Is DPPLP taking the position that it was unaware that the BCUCmight reject the EPA if it found that as for VIGP BC Hydro hadfailed to demonstrate that this project is the most cost effectivesolution for the Vancouver Island capacity issue If so pleaseprovide evidence from the CFT documents that support thisposition

192 Is DPPLP taking the position that the terms and conditions of theEPA are irrelevant in the determination of whether this project is themost cost effective solution to the Vancouver Island capacity issueIf so please state why

193 Would DPPLP bid the same prices for the project if the terms andconditions of the EPA were (a) far harsher or (b) far looser asseen from the position of bidder

DMSLegal105404610000 111972044v3

-5 -

194 Philosophically is there a point of harshness in a CFT andEPA atwhich DPPLP would simply decline to bid

Response 191 No DPP notes that VIGP was not the result of a broad all-sources competitive process

192 No However DPP considers that the EPA must be considered inthe context of the market-based approach adopted for theacquisition of the needed capacity If it can be clearly shown thatthe EPA in its totality is fundamentally flawed then this findingshould be addressed by the Commission However DPP views apiecemeal revisiting of this EPA as inappropriate if not impossibleDPP is of the view that the most important aspect of any reviewbeing its fairness has been answered through the competitiveprocess as all bidders faced the same EPA Terms and Conditionsand consequently all bidders remained on an equal footing

The Commission could use this proceeding as an opportunity toprovide commentary for use in future competitive procurementprocesses in the Province

193 No any bid would obviously be influenced by the totality of thepackage offered by the EPA This is not solely a pricing issueBidders adopt technologies and configure their facilities to meet thetechnical requirements of the electrical system as reflected in anEPA This clearly would impact the quantum of the bid but itsprimary role is to ensure that the system adopts appropriatetechnology to meet its requirements

194 Depending on the circumstances yes

110 Under the terms of the DPPLP EPA please explain the extent to whichDPPLP is responsible for any Green House Gas charges fees orpenalties until 2010 and starting 2011 Please clarify whether DPPLPhas factored any such GHG liability into its bid price

Response 110 Under the EPA the project has accepted liability with respect toGreenhouse Gas charges fees or penalties for the life of theproject BC Hydro under the terms of the Asset TransferAgreement has committed to offset 50 of GHG emissions up toand including the year 2010

DPPLP has factored potential GHG liability into the bid pricebased on an in-depth review of the issue The project team spentconsiderable time reviewing understanding and assessing thepotential GHG liabilities from the facility Based on thisassessment the project incorporated an appropriate allowance forsuch potential liability

The Rebis system is also used for process design It containsprocess and data management modules to prepare PampIDsinstrument lists and data sheets that are all interlinked Information ismanaged by the smart system thereby reducing errors

Our 3D design has proven to reduce design error thereby reducingcostly re-work by construction craft

The power division is currently initiating a program to also useIntergraph and PDS for 3D design

Communication Tools

We utilize modern communications tools which assist projectexecution

Our Video Conferencing Facilities

Video Conferencing helps facilitate communication with theproject team We find it very useful for weekly project meetingsprocess design review with the Owner and project managementmeetings

aCE Document Management - OCE is a brand name for a printmanagement and document archive system It provides anefficient effective means for viewing and printing a large variety ofdocuments and image files Once images have been stored andcatalogued they can be easily searched for and retrieved forviewing andor printing from local network drives Moreover thesystem enables owners or the construction site direct access toelectronic drawings specifications and vendor drawings Remotesites are set up so they can search the project vault select thedocument they require and plot at their location

We have seen this system effectively shorten the turn-around timebetween construction and engineering and create significantconstruction savings

BC Hydro had a program in place to upgrade their existing substations which werestructurally deficient with respect to their current earthquake loading requirements

As part of this program Cochrane Engineering Ltd was retained to undertake detaildesign and preparation of construction drawings for strengthening of the buildingstructural components which did not have adequate capacity for the currentearthquake loads The earthquake loading considered was the current buildingcode value for the particular area with the structure classed as Post Disaster

The building was a steel framed pre-engineered type structure Drawings wereprepared forthe upgrade ofthe roof diaphragm and vertical steel bracing
