Casey,
My apologies for not being there yesterday. In the end, I did not get back home until early this morning.
The CCA project has my support and, as far as I know, the support of everyone who involved in the growth of
manufacturing in Oroville. California's electricity costs for a manufacturer are much higher than those in other States
and manufacturers here are exposed to seemly arbitrary decisions made on the rate structure,for instance demand
charges. The more local influence on these decisions,the better.
Also, Butte County has unusual opportunities to develop local sources of electricity which might provide the CCA with
unforeseen advantages.
You can count on my support in future.
Best regards,
Robert

Good afternoon Robert—
Please find the final feasibility for the CCA attached. The first 12 pages are the Executive Summary.
You can see from the study, the CCA can provide a 2%saving for customers with a three year timeline for paying off
debt. There are initial costs for formation, which is where the debt comes into play. Interestingly, there is a relatively
new CCA in Placer called Pioneer Community Energy.They estimated rate savings at 3% and are now offering rate
savings in the double-digits to some business sectors. Certainly it remains to be seem how this would play out in Butte
County, but CCAs in the state are experiencing positive results.
The report aiso outlines how a CCA can produce economic development benefits for the region.
Please let me know if you have questions. I hope to see you on July 241h. The item will be considered at 10:00 am in the
Board Chambers.
Thanks.
Casey
