This temperature is near the boiling point of water which will canto a boilovor. later aoonnalating In the bottom of than tanks either by heating and dropping, from sour fuel or fvAl ooatauinated from saltwater.It is common practice in the oil ivAustry to beat and roll crudes to drop the water and such praotico has caused many boilovers. Such a boilover was the cause of the Hancock Oil Refinery Tire. B611overs or foasmovers are caused by the oil and heated water caual the oil to froth and ino"ase in volume as much as 1700 to ler full 220,000 barrel tank with 1,2329000 cubic feet of oil could at the rate of 1700 to 1 become ,09 ,400,000 oublc feet of froth,theoretically enough to cover an area 4,5, 754 feet square. Our experience in boilovers has shown they burn until about one fourth tank Is left at which time they violently boil over and cover the surrounding country. We find that once the tank has heated and oil on top starts to boil we cannot introduce foam in sufficient quantities to extinguish the fire. The type of storage being placed at the Steam Plant is ordinarilly connected with the Oil industry either in refineries,pumping stations or tank farms. For mutual protection of the Oil Industry they have its their employ the Oil Fire Fighting Experts. They also furnish all foam and towers or foam installations and foam trucks or trailers used on large tank tires.

Applicant heretofore filed the original application herein on March 23 , 1956 and amended the title on April 16, 1956 requesting a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity relating to a new steam electric generating station to be known as Huntington Beach Steam Station. 2. On June 4, 1956 by Decision No. 53187 the Commission found as a fact that the Public Convenience and Necessity required the construction, operation and - maintenance of said station consisting of two 200,000 k..w. units and issued a certificate to Applicant to construct, operate and maintain said equipment and facilities . 3 . A copy of Applicant ' s Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, certified by the Secretary of State of California, has heretofore been filed with the -1- Commission on May 9, 1958, in connection with Application No. 40065 and is by reference made a part hereof. 4. Applicant proposes to construct a new steam electric generating unit, to be known as -Huntington Beach Steam Station Unit No. 3, which will be located on Applicant's present coastal site consisting of approximately 54 acres, located within the City of Huntington Beach and westerly of the Santa .Ana River. Unit No. 3 will consist principally of a steam turbine-electric generator and related structures, equipment and facilities located adjacent to Units No. 1 and 2. Unit No. 3 is expected to have a name- plate rating of 210,000 kilowatts resulting in a total station nameplate capacity of 610,000 kilowatts. 5. Applicant proposes to finance the construction of such steam electric generating unit from available funds or funds to be obtained through the sale of securities, applications for the issuance of which will be filed with the Commission. A financial statement of Applicant as of October 31, 1958, is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "A", and by reference made a part hereof. 6. It is expected in connection with the operation of Unit No. 3 that steam will be produced in a single steam generator having an operating capacity of 1,638,000 pounds of steam per hour for delivery to the turbine throttle at 2400 pounds per square inch pressure and 1050° F. temperature and built to reheat the steam leaving the high pressure turbine to 1000° F. for return to the reheat section of the turbine. The turbine generator will be a cross compound unit with a high pressure turbine and an intermediate pressure turbine on one shaft rotating at 3,600 r.p.m. and coupled to one generator, and a low pressure turbine on a second shaft rotating at 1,800 r.p.m. and coupled to -2- r another generator. There will be no separate auxiliary generator, and auxiliary power for the unit will be obtained from the main generator bus through a transformer. The location. of the proposed new unit is shown on the drawing attached hereto and marked Exhibit "B". 7. on the basis of recently experienced system peak demand and energy requirements and their projections for the future, Applicant believes that it requires the use of Unit No. 3 at Huntington Beach Steam Station by January, 1961. A chart showing the relationship of net system peak. demand to the total of the effective and anticipated operating capacities of Applicant°s generating resources is attached hereto as Exhibit "C" and by reference made a part hereof. Applicant's records and studies indicate that its net system peak demand has increased from 1,852,800 kilowatts in 1953 to 2,632,800 kilowatts in 1957, and was estimated to increase to 2,860,000 kilowatts in 1958 and to 3,060,000 kilowatts in 1959. During -the same period, net system energy requirements have increased from 10.2 billion kilowatt-hours in 1953 to 14.9 billion kilowatt-hours in 1957, and were estimated to increase to 15.6 billion kilowatt-hours in 1958 and 16.8 billion kilowatt-hours in 1959. The annual data recorded for the years 1953 through 1957 and as heretofore estimated through 1961 are summarized in the following tabulation: -3- Increase Over Increase Over Prior Year Prior Year Kilowatts Kilowatts er KWH KWH Per Year (Thousands') (Thousands) Cent (Millions') (Millions) Cent. 1953 (recorded) 1,852.8 136.8 7.97 109242.5 884.2 9.45 1954 (recorded) 1,997.1 144.3 7.79 109919.8 677.3 6.61 1955 (recorded) 2,284.9 287.8 14.4 129348.2 19428.4 13.1 1956 (recorded) 2,504.0 219.1 9.6 13,763.1 10414.9 11.5 1957 (recorded) 2,632.8 128.8 502 149943.0 11179.9 8.6 1958 (estimated) 2,860.0 227.2 8.6 159650.0 707.0 4.7 1959 (estimated) 3,060.0 200.0 7.0 169800.0 19150.0 7.3 1960 (estimated) 39270.0 210.0 6.9 189000.0 19200.0 7.1 1961 (estimated) 30480.0 210.0 6.4 199200.0 19200.0 6.7 On December 22, 1958, Applicant' s system experienced a maximum instantaneous demand of 2,962,000 kilowatts. Estimates of system peak demand and energy requirements for 1959 and later years are being revised upwards in light of more recent experience and Applicant will present such revised estimates. as a part of its showing in support of this application. 8. The proposed new unit will be designed as an outdoor type station with centralized control facilities. It is anticipated that design will make provision for the future installation of an additional similar unit. Sea water obtained from the Pacific Ocean through existing underwater conduits will be used for cooling purposes. Natural gas will be burned for fuel, with provision for alternate burning of fuel oils including high viscosity fuel oil. The power output of the proposed new unit will be transmitted to the Applicant's interconnected system partly through existing transmission lines to be built prior to the operation of Unit No. 3. The proposed new -4- . Y transmission lines will consist of 4.1 miles of single circuit 220-kv line built on existing towers between Huntington Beach Steam Station and Ellis Substation, and 27.6 miles of double circuit 220-kv line to be built on new towers to be erected on existing rights-of-way between Ellis, Barre, Del Amo, and Lighthipe Substations. All circuits will be of 1,033,500 ACSR conductor and will require additional terminal facilities at Huntington Beach Steam Station and at Ellis, Barre, and Lighthipe Substations. A long range program of replacing smaller 220-kv conductors with 1,033,500 CM ACSR conductors is currently in progress on the existing trans- mission lines between Del Amo, Lighthipe, Laguna Bell and Mesa Substations. This program, plus the proposed new lines, will provide transmission line capacity for Huntington Beach Unit No. 3 with enough margin for an additional similar unit. 9. The following table summarizes the present estimate of the cost, including general overheads, but not including the cost of land and land rights, and clearing and grading, and not including the present esti- mate of the cost of constructing the new transmission lines and appurtenant facilities of the proposed new Unit No. 3.

The new terminal facilities at Ellis, Barre, and Lighthipe Sub- stations are presently estimated to cost $875,000 excluding general overheads. Such estimates are all based on present price levels and assume that such levels will not be materially altered during the construction period. The presently estimated annual cost of operating the new generating unit totals $275,000 and the annual cost of depreciation, taxes and return, assuming a 6.25% return on a plant half depreciated to represent the average condition over the life span, is approximately $3,282,000. Assuming a 62.8% capacity factor at a weighted mean heat rate of 9662 btu per kwh, the estimated fuel cost is 2.90 mills per kwh at present price levels and is 4.60 mills per kwh if a prorated fuel cost of $0.50 per million btu°s is assumed. The present esti- mates of annual station expenses by principal categories are summarized as follows: Fuel (present price levels) $35,3499000 Other.- Operation & Maintenance 2759000 Depreciation (straight line) 7809000 Income Taxes (current rates) 7519000 Ad Valorem Taxes (current rates) 7529000 Return (average) 999,000 Total $699069000 Based on the foregoing assumptions, the esti- mated average total cost per kwh at the steam station, assuming fuel at present price levels is 5.98 mills per kwh, and assuming at a prorated cost of $0.50 per million btu°s is 7.68 mills per kwh. 10. Applicant proposes to obtain all necessary permits from public authorities, including the City of Huntington Beach, the United States Department of Army, -6- Corps of Engineers, the Regional Water Pollution Control Board, the Orange County Air Pollution Control District, and any additional franchises and permits from public authorities which may be necessary for the construction of the new generating unit and other appurtenances. 11. Applicant is informed and believes and upon such information and belief alleges that the present and future public convenience and necessity require or will require the construction and operation by Applicant of said new steam electric generating unit with nameplate capacity of 210,000 kilowatts and the, af®rementiorcned trans- mission lines and other appurtenances, and the acquisition by applicant of permits, licenses and other rights necessary or convenient for the purpose of constructing, operating or maintaining the same for the reason that the actual and anticipated load growth upon Applicant's system creates the need for an increase in the electric generating capacity and energy available to Applicant, and the prom prosed new steam electric generating unit with such appurtenances is an economical and appropriate means of providing a portion of such increased capacity and energy. 12. The proposed new construction is not likely to compete with any other public utility, corporation, person or entity, public or private, but will provide arc' additional supply of electric capacity and energy to Applicants electric system.

The purpose of this pipe line is to furnish excess dry gas to the Southern California Edison Company' s Steam Plant. Recently, the City of Long Beach entered into a contract with Signal Oil and Gas Company for a term of five years, to purchase all of Signal Oil and Gas Com- pany' s dry gas which, at ' the present time, amounts to approximately 20,000 mcf. per day. This gas is now be- ing transported from Signal Oil and Gas Company' s absorp- tion plant located in Orange County westerly of the City limits of the City of Huntington Beach, through a pipe line in Bolsa Chica Avenue and Garden Grove Avenue to the City of Long Beach. At the present time, 10,000 mcf. is being used for re- pressuring certain portions of the Wilmington Oil Field In the tideland areas of the City of Long Beach. The remaining 10,000 mcf. (approximately) - is being used for furnishing gas to consumers in the City of Long Beach City of Huntington Beach January 14, 1958 2 under the Municipal Gas Department' s schedules for do- mestic, commercial and industrial uses. At certain times of the year, particularly in the winter months, all of this gas is required. by the Municipal Gas Department for its firm demands. During the summer months, however, this gas is excess to the Municipal Gas Department' s firm demands. For a number of years, this surplus gas, commingled with other gas received. from the tidelands., has been furnished to Southern California Edison Company for use at its Long Beach Steam Plant. Southern California Edison Company has now advised that this plant, upon the completion of the Huntington Beach Steam Plant, will be placed on a standby basis. There- fore, it is necessary that a pipe line be constructed to serve the Huntington Beach Steam Plant. Otherwise, Long Beach will. be faced with a serious problem of disposing of this surplus gas which will not be wasteful. Under the present contract with Signal Oil and Gas Com- pany, and the contract proposed to be entered into with Southern California Edison Company, which has been approved in principle by the City Council of the City of Long Beach, the margin of profit is two cents per mcf. The attention of your Honorable Body is directed. to the fact that the cost of installing the proposed pipe line from Signal Oil and Gas Company' s Absorption Plant to Southern California Edison Company' s Huntington Beach Steam Plant, will cost approximately $300,000. Although At has been customary in the past to make a charge of two cents per mcf. as a transportation cost for the de- livery of gas to the Southern California Edison Company' s Steam Plant, it can be .readily seen that this charge will barely amortize the cost of the installation of the pro- posed pipe line over a five-year period, which is the term of both of the above mentioned contracts. If in- stalled in the streets of Huntington Beach as proposed, Long Beach offers to pay the usual excavation charges re- quired for the installation of such a line as is here proposed and any other reasonable charges incidental thereto. However, because of -the substantial cost which the City of Long Beach must bear for the installation of the proposed pipe line for furnishing excess dry gas to Southern California Edison Company' s Huntington Beach Steam Plant, it is requested that no charge, or in any 1 City of Huntington Beach January 14, 1958 3 event a nominal charge only, be demanded of the City of Long Beach for the use of the streets during the forth- coming five-year period. This office has previously discussed the matter of the installation of the proposed pipe line with your committee composed of Councilman Arch Lockett, Councilman Roy D. Bryant, City Attorney Charles A. Bauer, Chief Adminis- trative Officer John Hendricksen and Superintendent of Streets William S. Lewis, and the committee is familiar with this proposal. In the event of the installation of this proposed pipe line, the City of Long Beach agrees to comply with the rules and regulations of the City of Huntington Beach and to furnish, prior to the installation of the- pipe line, complete plans and specifications outlining in detail the proposed installation. The City of Long Beach will also comply with any directive. as to the precise lo- cation of the pipe line in the aforementioned streets within the City of Huntington Beach. It is respectfully requested that your Honorable Body give consideration to this proposal at your next regular meeting so that the City of Long Beach may proceed with the necessary planning for this project.

Henrickson From: Lee M. Nelson As this is the first instance in which anyone in the City of Huntington Beach has connected to a District 11 facility, I should brief you on the procedure. As a Sanitation District we do not issue permits to individuals, only to cities or some other type of sewering agency. As a Sanitation District we issue a permit in this case to the City of Huntington Beach. You or Sid should write this office a letter simply requesting that permission is requested by the City of Huntington Beach to make the connection described in the attached letter. This will complete our files (normally the request comes first) . The reason that we like to have Galloway notified is that so he can inspect the work at the actual point of connection so as to prevent the contractor from leaving broken brick or concrete in the manhole or in a sewer line. Also call your attention to the fact that we have a general requirement that no one can connect into a District Trunk sewer excepting at a manhole. Obviously this does not affect District ll, at the present time as the only District Trunk is a pressure line. LEE M. NELSON LMN: fh General Manager �� S � W� i Ar, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY HUNTINGTON BEACH. CALIFORNIA C. D.SHEDENHELM DISTRICT MANAGER June 5, 1957 ' Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Huntington Beach Gentlemen: Subject: Huntington Beach Steam Station Sewer Connection As a result of previous conversations with former City Engineer Overmyer and City Clerk J. L. Henricksen, .we were informed that the proper proce- dure in acquiring a permit to attach a proposed sewer line to a sanitation district manhole north of the proposed Huntington Beach Steam Station sew- er line was to apply directly to the Orange County Sanitation District. In making such application, we were informed that the County Sanitation District deals only with cities, and that individual permits must be made through the city involved. Realizing that this was the first application of this type to be made to the City of Huntington Beach, Mr. L. M. Nelson, General Manager of the San- itation District, has prepared two memorandums directed to the City, which are enclosed and which are to be delivered at the time application is made. Accordingly we hereby make application to the City of Huntington Beach for the connection of the four-inch cast iron pressure discharge sewage main to an existing manhole located north of the steam station within the Orange County Sanitation District property. It is proposed to discharge sewage through the line into this manhole by two one-hundred gallons per minute sewage pumps operating intermittently for five-minute periods. The waste to be discharged would be from shower and toilet facilities only. All other wastes, including storm drainage, oily substances, acid waters and other wastes will be disposed of in another manner. Based on the normal operation of a two-unit generating station, which will be placed in operation immediately, the estimated sewage discharge will be twenty-five hundred gallons per day maximum. However, in the indefinite future, upon the completion of two additional generating units, the estimated sewage dis- charge will be four thousand gallons per day maximum. Very truly yours, C. D. Shedenhelm, District Manager.

Irby, Mayor City of Huntington Beach 209 Acacia Avenue ✓_�� r Huntington Beach, California ----------- Dear Earl: This will confirm our conversation of this morning cancelling need for special meeting of the City Council on Monday, August llth. At last night's Planning Commission meeting it was only possible for us to explain our need in connection with the Heating Station near the Meadowlark Country Club and the Hearing was adjourned to August 19th for Public Hearing. Mr. C. E. Tripp, Planning Technician, went away on his vacation and failed to send out the post cards notifying property holders within 300' of the site, and it is now necessary that Notice of Public Hearing be republished and post card notices sent to the only three property owners involved. You know how extremely reluctant I am to ask that the Council in- convenience themselves to the extent of calling a Special Hearing on the following day, August 20th, to pass on this case, but in view of the unusual circumstances involved and in consideration of the emergency situation as explained in my letter to you of July 18th, perhaps the good coamlissioners will consider this an appropriate request.

Yours very truly, Assistant General Counsel eb Enclosure cc: Public Utilities Commission State of California State Building San Francisco '.2, California SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY »r EDISON BUILDING - l/G C LOSANGELES 53,CALIFORNIA. . .February 24, 1956 , ;i� � All r The Honorable City Countil City-Hall c� Huntington Beach, California SUBJECT: South Coast Steam Electric-Generating Station Zoning Our File No. 5-0098 Southern California Edison Company, petitioner, is a public utility engaged . in,the business of generating, purchasing, transmitting, distributing and selling electricity in portions of Central and Southern California. The areas to which petitioner supplies electricity include 10 counties, 83 incorporated cities or portions of such cities, and more than 300 unincor- porated communities and outlying rural territories. Petitioner furnishes electric service through some 1,350,000 meters to a population in Central and Southern California estimated to be approximately 3,800,000 persons. Public necessity, convenience, health, safety and general welfare require a continuous and uninterrupted supply of the electricity furnished by peti- tioner to its customers in Orange County and in the other areas served by petitioner. The population and the commercial, industrial, and general business activity in Orange County and the other areas served by petitioner have been expand- ing rapidly. To enable. petitioner to continue satisfactorily to serve its customers with electricity, it is essential that petitioner construct, operate and maintain a new steam electric generating station in the City of Huntington Beach. The location of such steam station has been determined after due consideration and recognition of standard engineering requirements and related factors. Initially two units, each of an effective operating capacity under optimum conditions of 200,000 kilowatts, are to be installed:at the proposed steam station.- Petitioner estimates that the cost to petitioner of such steam station, with the first two units in place, will be approximately $63,000..000.00. If petitioner is to construct, operate and maintain said steam station with maximum efficiency and to the best and fullest advantage to the public to which it is dedicated, it .is essential that said steam station be classified as a permitted use in an appropriate zone. The Honorable City Council February 24, 1956 Page 2 A substantial portion of the property upon which petitioner proposes to locate the said steam station is presently zoned M-2-0. "General manufacturing and industrial uses and buildings and structures designed and intended for such uses, except as further provided" are permitted in this zone. The "steam electric generating station" is not specifically named and included as a permitted use in the M-2-0 District. A steam electric generating station might, by interpretation, be permitted in such zone because such steam station is, petitioner believes, generally consistent with and similar in nature to such other uses for the purposes of zone classification. However, petitioner submits that the vital importance of the proposed steam station to the public and the enormity of petitioner's investment in such steam station justif'r an amendment to Article 944, Chapter 94, Division 9 of the Ordinance Code of tYie'_City of Huntington Beach which will resolve and set at rest any doubt or question which may now exist as to whether-a :'steam electric generating station" is a permitted use in the M-2-0 District. Therefore, pursuant to the provisions of Article 926 of such Code, petitioner respectfully requests that Article 944 be amended by adding thereto a new section to be numbered 9443.1, and to read: "9443.1: Steam Electric Generating Station." Your favorable consideration of this petition will be greatly appreciated. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY BY Vice President NGK:alr
