  3. Campus Load Growth 1990 - 13.9M GSF 2007 - 17.7M GSF (27% increase) NO ready standby heating season boiler capacity Bleak Environmental Compliance Horizon NAAQS (Tippecanoe county non-attainment for fine PM) Developing rules (Regional ICI, CAIR-II, MACT-II) Aging Boiler Fleet 1990 avg. age - 17.5 Years (last boiler addition of only 20 Klb/hr inc.) 2000 avg. age - 27.5 Years 2008 avg. age - 35.5 Years Prime Drivers

  4. Jul-00 Sebesta Blomberg hired to perform Utilities Business Plan Study • Mar-02 Utilities Business Plan report delivered to BOT • 250 Klb/hr of new-additional CFB coal capacity needed • Project should be performed ASAP • $41.5M estimated cost (2006-07 installation $) • Jul-03 Sebesta Blomberg hired for professional services to solicit for new-additional steam capacity • Nov-03 Issue RFQ to the world- received 6 responses • Dec-03 Issue RFP to 3 firms - only one proposal received, never arrived at viable proposal, Jan-05 closed solicitation process The ride begins

  7. 8.Mar-08 Received BM initial cost estimate for a DB Boiler 6 plant addition • $76Mfor 250 Klb/hr of capacity Houston we have a problem!

  8. Apr-08 Received BOT approval to hire Design Criteria Developer for DB Process • Lutz Daily & Brain selected • Oct-08 Received LDB revised scope cost estimates • 200 Klb/hr as plant addition - $56M • 200 Klb/hr replace boiler 1 - $49M • Feb-09 Received BOT approval for engineering design services to replace Boiler 1 with Boiler 6 • Lutz Daily & Brain selected Houston we have another problem! What about lost boiler 1 capacity during construction? Change of Plans(new ride direction)
