SME completed the following scope of services for this Phase II ESA:
1. On. January 8, 2Q10, SME advanced 12 direct push borings, labeled SB1 through SB12,
and two band auger borings, labeled HAl and HA2, at the locations depicted on Figure
No. 2 in Attachment A. The soil borings were advanced to depths ranging from 8 to 15.
;feet below the ground surface (bgs) The hand auger borings were advanced to a depth of
;<two feet bgs.
2. SME submitted 13 soil and five groundwater samples from the Property and submitted
the samples for chemical analysis for volatile organic compounds (VOCs),polynuclear
aroma tic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and -10 ,Michigan-Metals (arsenic, -barium cadmium,
chroniiim `'copper, _lead mercury, selenium, salver and zinc) One soil sample (SRI 1),
with total lead concentrations greater ithan75 rrmg/kg, also was submitted for chemical
analysis of lead as fine/coarse fractions in accordance with the Michigan Department of
Environmental Quality Remediation and Redevelopment Division's (MDEQ aRRD's)

The table below presents the anticipated eligible activities that will be completed
for this project ‘and the estimated eligible costs associated with each activity:
Future redevelopment plans for 'the Future Project Areas are being considered.
Based on potential project concepts, the redevelopment of the site -wearequire the
excavat ion, removal of contaminated-a-oils, demolition, and. engineered backfilf at an
estimated cost of $300,000. The redevelopment of the site will also require . ''
additional environmental assessments, site characterization, and the oversight of
response 'activities at an estimated cost of $75,000. The costs of these activities are
not included for reimbursement in'this Brownfield. Plan and a future Brownfield
Plan amendment will be requested.

Many of these historic uses would have involved. the storage and use of various chemicals
and hazardous substances. As a result, several environmental site assessments (ESAs)
were conducted at the Property to evaluate soil and groundwater conditions and facilitate
redevelopment of the Property. Two Phase I ESAs and two Phase II ESAs were conducted,
the results of which were presented in the following reports:
• Phase
(AX I ESA dated May 29, 2007, prepared by.AKT Peerless Environmental Services
• Phase II ESA dated July3, 2007, prepared by AKT,
• Phase I ESA dated September 26, 2008, prepared by NTH Consultants, Ltd. (NTH),
and
• Supplemental Phase II ESA dated September 29, 2008, prepared by NTH.
Twenty five (25) soil borings were drilled during the Phase II ESA investigations, and a
total of 27 soil samples and 4 groundwater samples were collected for chemical analyses.
The following contaminants were detected in soil and/or groundwater at concentrations
exceed; g the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment's (MDNRE's)
Generic Residential Cleanup Criteria:
• Tetrachloroethene, trichloroethene, arsenic, and chromirvrn were measured in
soil samples at a concentration above the Part 201 Drinking Water Protection
(DWP) criteria.
• Arsenic and lead were measured in groundwater samples at a concentration
above the Part 201 Drinking Water Criteria (DWC).
✓ Arsenic, benzo(a)anthracene, and lead were measured in soil samples at a
concentration above the Part 201 Direct Contact Criteria (DCC).
• Chromium, copper, lead, selenium, and silver were measured in groundwater
samples at a concentration above the Part 201 Groundwater Surface Water
Interface (GSI) criteria.
• Napthalene, flouranthene, arsenic, chromium, copper, mercury, selenium and
zinc were measured in soil samples at a concentration above the Part 201

Public Comments
Approval of Minutes
General Manager J. Peter Lark introduced Michael Muirhead, Associate Financial Advisor for
Merrill Lynch Institutional Consulting Group who provided a 3rd quarter update and report on the
Defined Benefit (DB) Plan and the Voluntary Employees Beneficiary Association (VEBA) Plan. The
update included information on Investment Managers' Performance, Total Portfolio Performance,
Asset and Manager Fund Allocations and Distribution of Returns. Also included in the report is an
update on Fund Manager Scores and Market Indices and Portfolio Information.
Mr. Muirhead stated that there was a dramatic turnaround in the market over a six week period and
that allowed the equity to finish positively during the first quarter.
Chair Kramer expressed concern with some of the unfavorable performances from the Investment
Managers.
In response to Chair Kramer's concerns, Mr. Muirhead stated that every quarter there is going to
be divergences between the various fund's performance versus benchmarks. He stated the
Board's approach continues to be solid and just as some funds are trailing today, since the various
funds inception have had periods of time when they have out performed the benchmarks.
Commissioner Kramer questioned what the expectations are when looking at our fund portfolio
versus the appropriate benchmarks.

In response to Chair Kramer's question, Mr. Muirhead stated that every 90 days Merrill Lynch
monitors how the money is invested and how it is allocated to make sure that the investment
managers are managing the dollars in accordance with why they were hired. It means monitoring
their process, their people and their philosophy to make sure they are holding true to that fund's
investment philosophy. Ms. Devon indicated that Merill Lynch was retained under Merrill's
expectation that they could beat the benchmark by 200 bps over time using the active
management technique. From an evaluation prospective, Mr. Muirhead stated they believe that
investment managers and investment strategies need at least three years in order to be able to
evaluate how those managers are performing.

Public Comments
Approval of Minutes
General Manager J. Peter Lark stated that the proposed resolution would allow him authority to
designate representatives for the purpose of reporting to the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) under the Clean Air Act. He asks that the Committee forward the resolution to the full board
for consideration.
General Manager J. Peter Lark presented the Board of Commissioners with the 2010 Moores Park
Steam Replacement proposal.
General Manager Lark stated that there are four steam boilers at the Moores Park steam
production plant that produce steam for about 225 customers. Those customers are some of the
largest entities in the City of Lansing, including General Motors, City of Lansing, LCC, Boji Group
Tower, Ingham County and the Accident Fund.
General Manager Lark stated that about a year ago he came up with an idea of how to address the
problems at the aging Moores Park Plant. Since that time the Environmental Protection Agency
Regular Board Mtg.
July 27, 2010
Page 6 of 24
(EPA) has proposed stricter regulations for industrial boiler emission. These regulations will cost
the BWL anywhere from $30 to over $100 Million to bring the steam boilers into compliance with
them. In addition, the steam boilers are aging, 3 of them are 55 years old and almost beyond their
life expectancy. With the new EPA rules the boilers will probably have to be replaced by the end of
2013 and upgrading is really not an option.
Mr. Lark directed his Strategic Planning group to conduct a life extension study for the purpose of
determining the best option regarding Moores Park. That study resulted in the proposed plan to
build a natural gas combined-cycle cogeneration plant that will be located in Reo Town. The
building will include 180 offices with a goal to have the new facility LEED-certified. The project will
be an economic development boost to REO town and a positive step in the revitalization of the
area. The project will also create about 1000 construction jobs, as well.
George Stojic, Executive Director of Strategic Planning, stated that this project was initially
centered on the Moores Park steam plant and was prompted by the need to comply with some
tough environmental regulations being promulgated by the EPA as well as needing to make some
substantial capital and maintenance related expenditures to keep the plant operational. Both the
maintenance and the environmental expenditures are major operational and financial challenges
for the Board of Water & Light. There are also challenges with the electric generation side of the
business, especially with the smaller Eckert units. Eckert has 3 smaller units and 3 larger units.
The 3 smaller units share some characteristics with the Moores Parks units in that they are old and
quite inefficient. The units have rising operational and maintenance costs and will also face some
very tough environmental compliance issue in the near term. We have parallel requirements on
the steam side and electric side and it makes sense to address the problems simultaneously as it
is much more cost effective and efficient to do so.
Mr. Stojic said that we asked ourselves if it is worth sinking significant money into Moores Park in
the light of the fact that we will also be losing our electric generation units 1, 2 and 3 at Eckert and
we are going to need some additional generating capacity on the electric side of the business.
As part of the planning process we developed a financial model considering various options to
determine what each would cost over a 25 year planning period.
Staff considered three options to maintaining or replacing the Moores Park facility. Two of those
options involve a natural gas combined-cycle cogeneration plant. This type of plant is one of the
most efficient ways of producing electricity. What it involves is simply mixing air and fuel in a jet
engine and allowing it to turn a generator and then capturing the hot exhaust to produce steam,
doing one of two things with it, either sending it out to customers as steam for heat or turning
another electric generator.
Staff looked at two combined-cycle units, a larger and a smaller one. A third option was to simply
build a natural gas boiler for steam generation. That would be the simplest solution and the least
capital extensive, but was very expensive to operate.
Staff determined that the least expensive and most cost effective option would be to address the
steam and electric issues together with a large natural gas combined-cycle cogeneration plant.
Dick Peffley, Executive Director of Water Utility & Special Projects, stated that his responsibility in
this project is design and structure. There are three major components of the project. The first is
the construction of the new plant, which will be located at 1203 S. Washington, just north of the
Regular Board Mtg.

railroad tracks. We have an option to purchase that property until the end of January of next year.
This is one of four sites that were looked at and is the least cost option to build. This plant will take
18 months to construct.
The second part of the project is the renovation of the South Washington train station. This is a
4200 sq. ft. building and came as part of the property. The building was built in the early 1900's
and is currently listed on the Michigan Historic Registry, so that influences what can be done with
this building.
After successful completion of the plant, the demolition of the existing Moores Park plant will begin.
All of the obsolete equipment from the inside and outside will be removed. The building will be left
for future use.
Susan Devon, Assistant General Manager and Chief Financial Officer, stated that the cost of the
plant is about $182 Million and that bonds would be issued to pay for the new plant. The Bonds
will be paid off over a 28 year period.
General Manage Lark stated that on Thursday they will be meeting with the Lansing State
Journal's Editorial Board and there will be an open forum next Wednesday for any feedback.

Public Comments
Approval of Minutes
General Manager Lark introduced external auditor Shaun Krick, Manager with Plante Moran (P&M)
who reviewed and presented the FAS 114 External Audit Report.
Mr. Krick stated that the Financial Account Standard (FAS) 114 is a statement of auditing
standards that involve communications between the external auditors and the Governing Board. It
requires the external auditor report and updates the charged Governance with anticipated audit
plans and any significant issue findings that are reasonably anticipated during the year as well as
anticipated ways to solve those issues and gather information from the Board pertaining to areas
that may be of concern regarding an increased risk of material misstatement in financial records.
Mr. Krick reviewed some of the risk areas that have been identified and will be taking a closer look
at:
This is probably the second most significant activity at the Board of Water & Light other than
producing power.
Purchase of & accounting for inventory.
The auditors will be doing some limited observations procedures on third party coal measurements
and the other material stores.
This is one of the most significant activity and the auditors will be reviewing accounting records for
appropriate support and correct amounts.
This is a standard item of risk and is something that the auditors will be focused on.

Environmental remediation
This is anything related to landfills or any other items that the Board of Water & Light has obliged
itself to take care of related to environmental issues. This area will be observed to make sure that
value is recorded appropriately.
There were comments in last year's audit in this particular area. The BWL administration staff has
conducted an in-depth study in support of its capitalization rate during the current fiscal year. That
study has been submitted to Plante Moran for our review.
This area will be focused on since it has the most significant activity with three of the four pension
plans, VEBA, Defined Benefit and Defined Contribution. Also any other significant transactions
that have occurred during the year will be reviewed to make sure all documentation for transactions
are appropriately supported.
In response to the required discussion points mentioned on page #12 of the presentation,
Commissioner Kramer stated that the Board should maintain the same policy that was in place the
previous year and that Susan Devon, Assistant General Manager and Chief Financial Officer
should be the contact person.
Mr. Krick asked the Board of Commissioners if there were any areas of concern for either an
increased risk of material misstatement or fraud or if there was an area where they should be
spending additional time.
In response to Mr. Krick's questions Commissioners' Kramer and Lain stated that there were no
areas of concern.

later date which would actually allow the BWL to sell the bonds.
Motion by Commissioner Lain, seconded by Commissioner Louney, to forward to the full Board the
proposed resolution to allow the Administration the authority to publish the Notice of Intent to issue
Revenue Bond for Moores Park cogeneration plant and system improvements.
General Manager Lark stated that under the IRS Code, if any funds are going to be used from the
tax-exempt bond issuance to purchase any assets related to the Moores Park Extension there has
to be a declaration.. This resolution before the Board will authorize designated Administration to
make the required declaration of intent.

MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATIONS
RESOLUTION 2010-07-01
Application of Financial Accounting Standard #71 (FAS #71) to Chilled Water Relocation
Project Revenue
WHEREAS, revenue from Christman Capital Development Company (CCDC) for the relocation of
the Chilled Water facility in excess of the loss on disposal of the Ottawa Station facility will be set
up in a regulatory asset account; and
WHEREAS, the regulatory asset account will be amortized over the projected life of the new asset
to offset depreciation expense.
RESOLVED, that the Board of Commissioners, as the regulatory body of the Board of Water and
Light, approve, pursuant to the Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) 71, the appropriate
accounting, as described above, for the revenue from the Chilled Water Relocation Project.
Staff Comments.' This accounting treatment would allow the revenue that exceeded the write off of
the old Ottawa Station facility to be spread out over a number of years. This would allow Chilled
Water rates payers to receive the benefit of the contribution over the life of the new facility by
offsetting a portion of the depreciation expense.
PROCUREMENT POLICY
WHEREAS, Section 5-203.4 of the Lansing City Charter requires the BWL to adopt policies and
procedures to assure fairness in procuring personal property and services and disposing of
personal property; and
WHEREAS, on May 27, 2003 the Board adopted a Purchasing Policy which superseded the
previously adopted Purchasing Policy dated July 24, 1990; and
RESOLVED, that the Board adopt the attached Procurement Policy dated August 1, 2010 and
made effective August 1, 2010.
RESOLVED FURTHER, that where the adopted policies do not parallel those of the City's, the
Board has determined that the City's policies are inconsistent with the best practices for the
operation of a public utility.
RESOLVED FURTHER, that the Purchasing Policy adopted May 27, 2003 is superseded as of
August 1, 2010
RESOLVED FURTHER, that Resolution 2003-05-06, which adopted the Purchasing Policy, is
rescinded as of August 1, 2010.
RESOLVED FURTHER, this Procurement Policy provides the foundation for revisions to the
Procurement Procedures.
Staff Comments The new Procurement Policy dated August 1, 2010 is more concise, and
readable. Further, while incorporating current procurement practices, it conforms to SAP
processing requirements and aligns with BWL accounting policy and procedures.

Please forward this resolution to City Council for placement on the Agenda.
If you have any questions, or need additional information, please give me a call.
Attachments
The attached resolution will begin the process of issuing up to $3.2 million in bonds to construct a
consolidated garage for servicing city vehicles. Planning for the consolidation of the two city
garages has been underway for several years, and approval of the project was incorporated into the
FY11 budget.
We are anticipating using bonding authority available under the federal stimulus program, which
should provide us with very attractive interest rates. However, that program is currently scheduled
to expire on December 31, 2010, and there is a 45 day referendum period. Therefore, timely action
by Council is needed to benefit from the stimulus program.
PREAMBLE
WHEREAS, the City of Lansing, Counties of Ingham and Eaton, State of
Michigan (the "City") determines it to be necessary for the public health, safety and
welfare of the City and its residents to acquire, construct, furnish and equip a
consolidated garage and storage building(s) for City vehicles including site preparation
and improvement (collectively, the "Capital Improvements"); and
WHEREAS, under the provisions of Section 517 of Act 34, Public Acts of
Michigan, 2001, as amended ("Act 34") a city may issue municipal securities to pay the
cost of any capital improvement items within the limitations provided by law; and
WHEREAS, the issuance by the City of bonds under Section 517 of Act 34 in an
amount not to exceed Three Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,200,000) (the
"Bonds") for the purposes of financing costs of acquisition and construction of the
Capital Improvements appears to be the most practical means to that end; and
WHEREAS, Act 34 requires that the aggregate outstanding balance of municipal
securities issued under Section 517 of Act 34 by a city shall not exceed 5% of the state
equalized valuation of the property assessed in that city, and after the issuance of the
Bonds the outstanding balance of all municipal securities issued under Section 517 of Act
34 by the City will not exceed this limit; and
WHEREAS, a notice of intent to issue bonds must be published in order to
comply with the requirements of Section 517 of Act 34 and Section 5(g) of the Home
Rule Cities Act, Act 279, Public Acts of Michigan, 1909, as amended; and
WHEREAS, the Internal Revenue Service has issued Treasury Regulation §
1.150-2 pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, governing proceeds
of debt used for reimbursement, pursuant to which the City must declare official intent to
reimburse expenditures with proceeds of such debt before making the expenditures.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
The City Clerk is directed
1. to publish a notice of intent to issue the Bonds
in City Pulse, a newspaper of general circulation in the City.
2. The notice of intent shall be published as a one-quarter (1/4) page display
advertisement as required by Section 517 of Act 34, and shall be in substantially the
