Brett LaHorgue is continuing with the wiring diagrams for unit#1. Once the unit#1 construction
drawings are issued, he will be transitioning to the BOP design.This will put unit#1's design complete
one year before construction and give us plenty of time to order parts. Unit#3's construction is going
well, and Derek has almost completely taken over for Albert as the CSS for this project. Albert will be
retiring at the end of July.

June 2021 Update
June 2021 Executive Update:
Two projects have been added as part of the modernization.They will not add time to the construction
schedule. Wiring diagrams for unit#1 are continuing. Construction is moving forward with unit#3. We
are still on schedule to be as far as we can be by the end of July when the wiring crew must move to
their next project. Once the wiring crew leaves the technicians, mechanics, and operators will continue
with the construction tasks that couldn't be completed while the refurbishment is still going on.This
puts us at a good position to complete everything next year when the refurbish project is complete.

Schematic review is complete for unit#1. Even with the extension of unit#3's schedule we are keeping
to the unit#1 and BOP Design schedule. By doing this we will be prepared for any change in unit#1's
schedule. If unit#1 is accelerated the wiring crews schedule will need to be reviewed.

Unit#1's schematic review was completed by the new designer Brett, Derek, Albert, Brad and Carson.
Brett will continue refining the schematics as action items get answered. Once all the schematic
corrections are complete Brett will focus his attention to the wiring diagrams. Unit#3 construction is
continuing, and we are not deviating from our current schedule even with the new extension.This will
have us performing test outs this summer,those that can be performed without a complete unit.The
full test out will occur once the unit is reassembled.

Even with material delivery delays the controls project is still on schedule. With the possible extension
of the construction window from the generator rewind project a plan is being put in place for design and
materials purchase for the next unit and the BOP.The current plan is to have the unit#1 design
complete by August and then to start on the BOP design and have it completed by end of the year.This
will put either project designed by the time unit#3 is back online with the current proposed schedule.

The programming is a little behind schedule however plans are being made to get assistance from a
couple Hagerman techs.The PLCs, engineer workstation, and operator workstation have all been
powered up.The available servo drawings had the wrong servo ring information on them.This has
caused us to order new rings after the first servo was removed and measured. One servo motor is
reinstalled without new rings and the other is disassembled, cleaned, and waiting on new rings.The
wiring crew is continuing with construction and has a focus in the control room.The generator RIO
cabinet and intake RIO have both been completed. Once end devises have been installed those
connections can be tested.

The programming is a little behind schedule. Coordination is being made to have a couple Hagerman
techs assist and help trouble shot any program issues.The available servo drawings had the wrong servo
ring information on them.This has caused us to order new rings after the first servo was removed and

inspected while waiting on the new rings.The wiring crew is continuing with construction and has a

2020 Budget Update 4;
Total project Change: $1,073,216;
Budget Update 1: Accelerated $200k into 2020 from 2021 for preconstruction materials purchase. $212k
was moved from LSPR150003 to HCPR190001. $62k for labor for design
support/programming/engineering;
Budget Update 2: No Change;
Budget Update 3: Accelerated $308,666 for material and labor because of the unit#3 failure and
accelerated refurbishment schedule.The scenario continues to change, but these numbers represent our
first attempt at accelerating the full controls scope of work for Unit#3 into 2020 and early 2021, while
moving the controls work for unit#1 into the slot that was originally planned for unit#3.
Budget Update 4: Accelerated $133,865 for the new digital governor's specification, design, fabrication,
and labor (both for the dissassembly of the old governor and the installlation of the new) for unit#3 as
part of the accelerated schedule caused by the failure of unit#3.
December 2020 Update
December 2020 Executive Update:
The wiring crew has the construction drawings and is continuing with removals and installation.The
generator RIO has been placed, stub ups installed, and conductors pulled.The unit control panel is in the
control room ready for installation.The PLC program and HMI display is still under development and
should be complete by January.The governor manifold is being manufactured and scheduled for
delivery by the end of January.

The wiring crew has made a lot of progress in a short time.They now have the construction drawings
and have already placed the generator RIO along with rebuilt the intake RIO. Cable tray has been
installed along with conduit stub ups. Some conductors have been pulled to their respective locations
and are ready for termination. Sam is continuing with the programming and Kyle is working on the HMI
display. Both will be complete by January. Kyle was able to make a visit to the Hagerman shop to work
with Greg on the Wonderware system. In conversations with most of the crews working on this project
it sounds like a large portion of them are taking the two weeks around Christmas off. Currently this will
not affect the projects schedule. Carson will be on call during this time period and will also be working at
the plant.

At the beginning of the month the P2P was completed and Beau is incorporating all the redlines into the
construction set which will be issued once complete. Don Craine and his wiring crew have started work
at the Hells Canyon Power Plant.The wiring crew is conducting site prep and disassembly as needed.
With the main priority being the Intake RIO.The maintenance crew has sent the SSG to the techs to start
test out with the new governor plc. A maintenance crew has been assigned to remove, clean, repair, and
reassemble the servo motors. Carson Kindall still has the fiber termination panel to complete at the
intake RIO, otherwise the other fiber runs are complete. Kyle Davis is going to contact Greg Peasnall
from the Hagerman Tech group to help with the Wonderware/PLC programming,for some time in
December. In December this project will be in full construction mode with the construction set
drawings,the CSS and wiring crew on site.

Budget Update

We have moved forward with most of the original scope of work for the unit controls upgrade. With the
limited amount of design and construction time the BOP is being moved until after Unit#1.This will give
the designer time to focus on unit#1 after the drawing package is complete for unit#3.After a
conversation with the techs this is preferred as there is not much construction time in between these
first units.This will have the BOP starting before unit#2 and finishing with the unit for all final
connections.Assignments have been made, as can be seen from the list below.The E-Shop has the
drawings for the panels and RIO and as parts arrive,they will be built and set aside for delivery. E-shop
equipment builds will be delivered to the plant by mid to late October.This will be right before the
wiring crew arrives at the beginning of November.The governor contractor is making a trip to the plant
for final measurements before design and fabrication.This is being coordinated through Laramie
Simpson.

With the failure of the unit we looked at many different scenarios. Currently we are moving forward
with the full scope of work for the unit controls upgrade.This has caused the acceleration of 2021 tasks
into 2020. Also,the next unit(unit#1) has been moved into Unit#3's outage slot in the fall of 2021 and
so on for unit#2 in the fall of 2022. Currently the restrictions for this project are coordinating the wiring
crew,they are currently assigned to the local service at Lower Salmon and the protection upgrade at
Swan Falls. We are currently looking at having contractors brought in to complete these projects as the
Hagerman Technicians don't have the man power to complete them.Also being able to complete a
complete design in order to have drawings to the E-Shop for cabinet and rack builds. Another possible
obstacle is the controls programming.This PLC programming is new to the Canyon Techs; however they
are working off of the program used at Twin Falls and coordination with the Hagerman Techs for sup
