Electric Infrastructure Workshop Gulf Power Company January 23, 2006

– 2005 Hurricane Season Who We Are  Our size  Our location and geography  Our company affiliation  Our communication system

– 2005 Hurricane Season What We Experienced  Damage to our system Transmission Substation Distribution  Hurricane T&D Material Summary - slide 16 Hurricane T&D Material Summary

– 2005 Hurricane Season What We Experienced  Damage to our system by Wind Storm Surge Trees Debris Debris Removers Customers  Coastal Damage slides Coastal Damage  Hurricane Ivan Maps slides 27 and 28 Hurricane Ivan Maps

– 2005 Hurricane Season What We Did  Prior to Hurricane Season Review and refine the restoration process  Critiques after each storm  Updates of contact information  Lessons learned from other utilities Communicate storm assignments to employees Prepare storm kits for each substation Ensure adequate material stocks can meet needs Negotiate and confirm contracts with vendors

– 2005 Hurricane Season What We Did  Approaching Storm Execute contracts  Materials  Food/Lodging/Staging/Transportation/Fuel  Electrical and tree contractors Communicate with customers and local / state officials Conference call with Southeastern Electric Exchange members

– 2005 Hurricane Season What We Did  Post Storm Decentralize the restoration process  Decision making ability is at the substation level  Distribution assessments and restoration begin as soon as it is safe to report to work Draw upon Southern Company affiliates for assistance as needed Perform “sweeps” – slide 29sweeps

– 2005 Hurricane Season What Is In The Future  Underground  Help with vegetative management in right of way  Evolving specifications  Increased data from our mapping system  Distribution Assessment Teams

– 2005 Hurricane Season What Is In The Future  Vegetation Management  Pole Inspections maximize plant facility life gather information necessary to manage and prioritize needs and resources minimize unscheduled or emergency maintenance by performance of preventative maintenance  NESC and Specifications

10 Vegetation Management  Work performed by contractors  Clearance at the time of pruning based on NESC requirements  Program performance indicators Vegetation SAIDI Customer satisfaction - justified PSC complaints on tree trimming Public Safety – number of documented accidents related to vegetation

11 Vegetation Management (cont.)  Program utilizes a mix of maintenance pruning on entire circuits, targeted spot pruning on portions of circuits, and spot pruning in response to customer call ins.  Annual work plans developed from Forestry Services field inspection data, outage data, customer call ins, and field engineering reports  100% of transmission field inspected each year – all hazardous situations corrected (i.e., leaning or dead trees)

12 Distribution Line Inspections  249,802 wooden poles as of December  10 year inspection cycle for all distribution poles  Gulf started its 2 nd inspection cycle in  All poles are inspected using one of the following inspection types: Visual Sound and Bore Partial Excavation Full Excavation

13 Transmission Line Inspections  12 year inspection cycle for all transmission poles and structures  Aerial patrol of system at least 4 times per year  All structures are inspected every 6 years using one of the following inspection types: Ground Inspection Wood Ground Line Treatment Inspection Steel Ground Line Treatment Inspection Comprehensive Walking Inspection Comprehensive Aerial Inspection Routine Aerial Patrol

14 National Electric Safety Code  Purpose  The NESC is composed of 8 sub-committees, an executive sub-committee, and an accredited standards committee  Member Representation  A new revision is published every 5 years.  Recognized Authority
