24106 N Bunn Rd.

Prosser, WA 99350

Project: Mod Lab

BPUD Work Request #741308

Dear Developer:

Due to supply chain deficiencies, Public Utility District No. 1 of Benton County, hereafter referred to as the “District” reserves the right to postpone/reschedule projects based on material or equipment availability. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, the District makes no warranty or representation regarding when the transformer and other equipment will be installed, and Developer hereby waives and releases the District from any liability, claim or damage resulting from delays in the installation of such equipment.

The design has been completed for the overhead electrical distribution system for the referenced project. The District will install a three phase, 120/240 volt, overhead transformer bank for this service. All customer panels will be three phase, and all loads must be balanced. This project is subject to the approval of the Commission of the District. This design is for the

District electric facilities only, you must contact all other utilities for their requirements.

For this project, the District will consider you as the DEVELOPER. As the Developer, you will need to address the items outlined in this agreement before the District can complete their work and be able to provide power. The Developer has the responsibility to verify that subcontractors adhere to District requirements and specifications, and to comply with WAC 296-155-428. This agreement is not intended to represent a proposed schedule as to when the District may commence its work. Furthermore, there is no guarantee as to when either temporary or permanent power will be available at the job site. Construction scheduling of approved projects is subject to the availability of materials.

PLEASE NOTE

Important documents enclosed

Before this project can proceed, all documents contained within this letter must be completed and returned. To avoid delay of this project, please check to see that all information is correct and complete.

Section 1.0 Project Requirements:

1.1 The following items need to be completed before this project will be released to the

District’s Operations Department for scheduling:

Sign and return the last page of this Developer’s Agreement, keep one for your records.

Arrange for the District to be granted easements as needed.

► Have the enclosed easement form signed and notarized by legal owners of property to us for recording. The person(s) who are executing the instrument need to provide evidence that they are authorized signees.

► When this has been completed, return the document to me and I will send it for recording.

► All easements are to be 10.00 feet in width.

Overhead electric facilities fees in the amount of $10,005.76 will need to be paid but not until after you receive an invoice. By signing the form at the end of this letter, you are agreeing to the fees listed below. These fees are per current District fee schedules.

» Primary fees for this project are: $10,005.76

» The fees are good for three months from the date of this Agreement. If these fees have not been paid within three months, they will need to be re-calculated. If the fees are paid within three months; the electric facilities will need to be scheduled for installation within one month of payment. Due to equipment and material delays the District cannot guarantee availability.

» If fees have not been paid after you are invoiced, and the work has not been completed within the one-year time frame, the job will be VOIDED. If you still require service after this time frame, you will need to re-submit plans for District review.

» Complete and return the customer Application for Service, being certain to provide the Unified Business Identification (UBI) number for the firm under whose name the electric service will be connected.

» Requests for both temporary and permanent services (if applicable) should be made at our Kennewick office located at 2721 W. 10th Avenue, Kennewick, WA, or the Prosser office located at 250 N Gap Rd.

Schedule a pre-construction meeting that will need to include all utilities, excavator, developer, and surveyor.

After all these items have been completed and all necessary information returned to the District, the work order will be forwarded to the District’s Operations Department. The Developer will be responsible for opening and backfilling all the trenches associated with this project per

District specifications; (please read Section 2.0 on Trench Requirements). The excavation contractor will need to coordinate when the trenches should be opened with our Assistant

Superintendent of Transmission and Distribution, Jessie Grad (509)222-9305. Mr. Grad will not have any information pertaining to this project and will not be able to schedule any work until the aforementioned items have been completed. Due to the amount of construction occurring in this area, it typically requires four to six weeks to schedule a crew.

1.2 The following items need to be completed prior to the service being energized for this project:

Refer to the enclosed Standard Q-1A Meter Socket Terminal Clip Configuration

Refer to the enclosed Standard Q-1B Residential & Commercial Services Maximum

Lengths & Required Conduit Sizes

Refer to the enclosed Standard Q-5E Current Transformer (CT) Compartment

Requirements for Three Phase Services 201-800 Amps

Install a 1-inch conduit from the CT compartment to the meter base.

Refer to the enclosed Standard Q-10A Work Area Clearance

The potential fault current for this installation is/or can be up to 20,000 amps at the secondary bushings of the transformer.

Arrange to pick up a prewired 13-terminal meter base without frame from the District’s

Meter Shop. Your electrician will need to notify the Meter Shop two days in advance of when he will be picking up the meter base.

While the District will take all reasonable precautions to prevent phase failure or abnormal voltage variations, please be advised that the potential for these operating aberrations does exist and that it will be the customer’s responsibility to protect all equipment against them. As the Developer, it will be your responsibility to verify that the transformer location complies with WAC 296-46B-

450, Transformers. If it is found subsequent to the installation of the transformer that this regulation has been violated, the District will have no choice but to de-energize the transformer until the problem is rectified. This may include the District relocating the transformer at full cost to the Developer, per this Agreement.

The District develops the initial electrical distribution system design, per the Developer’s instructions, for a subdivision or plat at no charge. A charge of $75.00 per hour may be assessed the customer if the design is modified within four (4) months of initial design.

Section 3.0 Change Order Requirements:

If the Developer causes changes to the most recent design following initial Developer fee payment, the Developer shall be held fully responsible. If the District has initiated work and a change order has been found to be necessary, the District will stop work, redesign job, and issue an additional invoice for additional labor and material costs incurred or expected to be incurred.

Work will not resume until the additional invoice is paid in full. If circumstances require change order work to be completed due to hazardous conditions, costs for this will be captured via an additional invoice. The District will not energize customer’s equipment including temporary service until all invoices have been paid in full. If project circumstances necessitate that change order work be completed prior to invoicing, payment is required within 30 days. Any invoices not paid within 30 days from the invoice date will incur a 1% late fee, with an additional 1% fee applied for each subsequent month the invoice remains unpaid. Unpaid invoices more than three months late may be transferred to a collection agency.
