Request to Terminate Participation in FPL's Voluntary Commercial/Industrial <br /> Load Control (CILC-1) Program <br /> (memorandum dated-November 2014)-----------------------------------------------------182498___ <br /> - ---------------------- - <br /> 9:19 Commissioner O'Bryan elaborated on the County's voluntary participation <br /> a.m. in FPL's program, and how some of the generators periodically "crank up" <br /> in a test status to ensure they are operational, should they be needed in an <br /> emergency. He announced that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) <br /> recently passed new emission standards, of which two of the County's four <br /> generators fall under. He said the cost to upgrade the generators to meet the <br /> new emission standards would cost the County about $52,923 per year. He <br /> felt this should have been phased in over time, and suggested sending letters <br /> to Congressman Posey and Senators Nelson and Rubio, informing them that <br /> this is an example of a Federal unfunded mandate that is costing taxpayers <br /> money for a bureaucratic agency that makes a sweeping change with no <br /> regard of how it affects people's dollars. <br /> Chairman Davis asked that the letter mention that there is no way for the <br /> people of Florida to vote the individuals responsible for this out of office. <br /> MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner O'Bryan, SECONDED by Vice <br /> Chairman Solari, to: (1) terminate the Commercial/Industrial Load Control <br /> (CILC-1) program at the South County Wastewater and the South County <br /> Reverse Osmosis (RO) facilities on or before December 31, 2014 to avoid any <br /> Florida Power & Light (FPL) early termination charges; (2) approved the <br /> continuation of the CILC-1 program at the West Regional Wastewater <br /> Board of County Commission Minutes <br /> November 18,2014 Page 6 <br />
