AI summary
- Nova Scotia Power Incorporated submitted CI# 38847 for the 2010 Distribution Feeder Ties project, requesting Nova Scotia Utility And Review Board approval for reconductoring of two distribution line sections in the Windsor and Dartmouth areas to enable feeder interconnection and reduce customer outages (Work Order, p. 1).
- The project estimate of $531,609 exceeds the ACE 2010 budget of $496,042 by $35,567, primarily due to higher-than-anticipated material requirements identified during final scoping, partially offset by a shift from contracted to NSPI labour (Variance section, p. 4).
- Cost breakdown includes materials (poles, wire, insulators) at $159,979; labour at $120,735; contracts at $96,000; and administrative overheads and capitalized interest at $154,895 (Cost Breakdown table, p. 4).
- Site selection for Windsor and Dartmouth feeders (including 1V-443, 79V-403, 113H-432, and 113H-442) was based on reliability performance data (SAIFI/SAIDI/CAIDI metrics for 2007–2009), customer population, physical proximity, and confirmed spare capacity for load transfer (IR-D11 Response, p. 1).
- Specific materials and contract cost line items were withheld as confidential to protect competitive procurement terms, consistent with NSPI's stated policy of shielding supplier pricing from competitors and customers (IR-D11 Response, p. 2).
