3. Approve Financial Statements
Mr. Martig presented the Financial Statements. Electric Division Net Loss increased
by $70,732 over March 2021. Increased operating expenses were due to nozzle
cleaning, testing and repairs along with down payment on elevator repairs that were
approved at last month's meeting. Natural Gas Division heating degree days were
1,021 compared to 751 a year ago, which led to an increase in usage and revenue
as well as purchased gas.
GM Carter noted Electric Division Generator Fuel is up year to date by 125% due to
contracts and running in January and February to hedge against any spikes and
volatility in the market. GM Carter reviewed the Cash Designation Report. Ratios
and Benchmarks will be discussed at the Cost of Service Workshop that is being
planned for May/June.
Discussion was held on the impacts of hedging.

financial statements. Motion carried unanimously.

2
There are no changes to the agreement from last year.
A motion by Commissioner Wendorff, second by Commissioner Hanson to
Approve HTI/TDK Natural Gas Transportation and Commodity Purchase
Agreement. Motion carried unanimously
b. Approve Req #009124 - 3M Substation Relay and RTU Upgrades
Mr. Lang presented approval of Req #009124 - 3M Substation Relay and RTU
Upgrades. The existing electro-mechanical relaying equipment is to be replaced
at the 3M Substation in 2022. An engineering firm will be used to design the
protection system scheme for the substation and feeders, specify materials,
develop relay settings and commission the relays, along with designing and
specifying the material to replace the obsolete Ilex RTU and integrate with the
new relaying equipment.
Motion by Commissioner Martinez, second by Commissioner Hanson to Approve
Req #009124 - 3M Substation Relay and RTU Upgrades. Motion carried
unanimously.
c. Review 2021 Annual Benchmarking Report
Mr. Hunstad presented the 2021 Annual Benchmarking Report. The report
focuses on distribution system reliability across the country and is customized to
each utility that participates in the APPA eReliability Tracker service. Mr. Hunstad
reviewed where HUC ranks to others in the region.
Great job from Commissions.
d. Approve Cost of Service & Rate Design Study with UFS
GM Carter presented approval of the Cost of Service & Rate Design Study with
UFS. Looking to have the Commission approve the process to get HUC on the
schedule with UFS. This is a budgeted item. Inquired with other agencies as
well, however there was not room on the schedules to fit HUC in. It is also
anticipated other agencies would be significantly higher; UFS was the lowest cost
5 years ago and has only raised the fees $2K since that time. The other
advantage to HUC, is UFS has done the Cost of Service & Rate Design Study in
the past; no learning curve and will be a smoother process. Since the last study,
there are more items for the Commission to consider; one main focus would be
the different types of rate schedules that include: Time of Use (TOU) rates,
Standby rates, Interruptible rates and RNG rates. Discussions will need to be held
3
at the Cost of Service workshop on the different types of Rate schedules
available, what Staff is seeing and hearing from the customers and how to phase
in the different types of rates that are available. Having a workshop will help
provide information to UFS on what direction HUC is headed towards in the
future.
Discussions were held on the different types of Rate schedules that are available.
A motion by Commissioner Hanson, second by Commissioner Wendorff to
Approve the Cost of Service & Rate Design Study with UFS. Motion carried
unanimously.
e. Approve Disposal of Surplus Assets at Plant #1 — Units 3, 4 and 8 along with
Diesel Fuel and Tank
Mr. Gabrielson presented the approval of Disposal of Surplus Assets at Plant #1-
Units 3, 4 and 8 along with Diesel Fuel and Tank. Engines 3, 4 and 8 have all
been decommissioned. Diesel Fuel was only used in engines 3 and 4, since
those are decommissioned there is no use for the diesel fuel and tank. Did
inquire on what the costs could be for the demolition of the units and pricing came
back around $625K-$700K. GM Carter noted that Board approval to sell these
items is needed but timing for these will happen at different times. Staff would
also try to sell parts off the units to other Utilities before scrapping. Major removal
of the units will be part of the COS study along with discussing new opportunities
that may be available and factoring all information into the 5-year CIP. The first
step is to have Commission approval to dispose of the assets which will then be
followed up with a better time line of when or how the items will be disposed/sold.
A motion by Commissioner Wendorff, second by Commissioner Hanson to
Approve Disposal of Surplus Assets at Plant #1 — Units 3, 4 and 8 along with
Diesel Fuel and Tank. Motion carried unanimously.
f. Approve Req #009144- Purchase of Replacement for Truck 130
Mr. Webster presented the approval of Req #009144- Purchase of Replacement
for Truck 130. In compliance with the 2020 Fleet Management Program the
Natural Gas Division is to replace vehicle #130 which is a 2011 Chevrolet
Silverado 2500 HD 44 cab and chassis with a utility body. The replacement cab
and chassis that is being recommend by Staff is a 2022/23 GMC Sierra 3500,
SRW, 44, Crew Cab, Cab and Chassis. Right now, buying a vehicle has been
hard. GM is taking orders on a limited quantity of vehicles in production.
Therefore, HUC felt it was prudent to enter into a contract with GMC for
production. The price for the vehicle is subject to change once the prices are
12
announced for the 2023 vehicles, which should be in late May. The price listed is
based on 2022 pricing.
A motion by Commissioner Martinez, second by Commissioner Hanson to
Approve Req #009144- Purchase of Replacement for Truck 130. Motion carried
unanimously.
g. Approve Req #009145 — Purchase Replacement for Truck 948

Vacation may be used after completion of the probationary period. Employees must receive prior
approval of their vacation requests from their Director, Manager or Supervisor.
A vacation request for more than one day must be submitted at least two workdays in advance.
(For example, if an employee is scheduled to work Wednesday, Thursday, Monday and the
employee wants to take Monday afternoon as vacation, the employee must submit a request in
person by Wednesday afternoon.)
An employee may carry over up to a maximum of two times their annual vacation accrual into the
subsequent calendar year. Vacation year is defined as a calendar year. After the first year of
employment an employee is required to use a minimum of 40 hours of vacation per calendar year.
If the Employer determines that due to workload, an employee cannot utilize sufficient accrued
vacation, by mutual agreement between the employee and the Employer, either a temporary
extension beyond the maximum carryover amount may be granted or a vacation payout of not to
exceed 40 hours will be granted.
Employees who are on vacation and experience a disabling accident or illness may use sick leave
instead of vacation upon providing their Director, Manager or Supervisor appropriate proof of the
accident or illness.
HOLIDAYS
Employees are eligible for holiday pay effective immediately upon hire. HUC shall observe the
following days as holidays:
• New Year's Day
• Martin Luther King Day
• President's Day
• Memorial Day
• Fourth of July
• Labor Day
• Veteran's Day
• Thanksgiving Day
• Christmas Day
If the holiday falls on a Sunday, the following Monday shall be the holiday. If the holiday falls on
a Saturday, the preceding Friday shall be the holiday.
If Christmas falls on a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, then the preceding day shall be
a Christmas Eve Day holiday. Additionally, there shall be two (2) floating holidays determined by
mutual agreement between the employee and Director, Manager or Supervisor. If Christmas falls
on a Saturday, Sunday, or Monday, there shall be no Christmas Eve Day holiday but there shall be
three (3) floating holidays determined by mutual agreement between the employee and Director,
Manager or Supervisor. Floating holidays must be used by the end of each calendar year.

leave (sick/vacation/compensatory time). This policy is meant to provide employees with the
option of assisting fellow employees at such a time.
HUC employees having accrued sick or vacation leave shall be allowed to donate a portion of such
accrued leave to fellow employees experiencing a catastrophic illness and/or serious health
condition suffered by the employee, the employee's spouse, or the employee's dependent
child(ren). A catastrophic illness and/or serious health condition includes but is not limited to,

disability benefit (if applicable), or for the maximum number of days allowed to be
donated, whichever occurs first.

year to a single fellow employee. This shall not be construed to prohibit donating sixteen
(16) hours per year to additional employees. Leave donation shall be calculated using time
and not an equivalent cash amount.
6. An employee who is donating paid leave must do so from the employee's accrued sick
and/or vacation leave balance. A written request to donate leave must be made to human

or tuition exceeds this amount, then the Director or General Manager will approach the
Commission to request a waiver. To request a waiver, the coursework must be directly
related to the employee's position within the company, or if the degree the employee is
seeking is beneficial to the company; in other words, it would be difficult to hire someone
who already has that degree.
Reimbursement is contingent on receiving a "pass" or minimum grade of "C".
Employee must study on their own time. Use of HUC computers is allowed in accordance
with the IT policy.
An employee must remain employed at HUC for twenty-four (24) calendar months after
completion of a course, or must repay HUC all reimbursements received for the course.

documentation from a healthcare provider relating to the employee's medical condition and
request for accommodation. If an employee refuses to provide such written documentation and/or
sign an authorization allowing HUC to contact the healthcare provider, HUC will evaluate the

immediate family. Time allowed with pay for exempt employees may not exceed five (5) days per
family member. The paid time off will not be deducted from the employee's paid leave banks.
