  22. Contractual Relationship New Jersey American Water Developer Contractor Suppliers

  23. Contractor Selection and Construction The contractor selection is the water company’s and not the developer’s The lowest responsive bidder will construct the project This bidder may or may not be the developer’s “requested contractor” New Jersey American Water will: manage the contractor during the construction process inspect, pressure test and chlorinate the mains complete the needed as-builts

  24. 5.0 Close-Out 120 days after the final costs are available Final Project Costs and Reconciliation Reimbursements / Balance Due

  25. 6.0 Revenue Refunds Refunds made for each new bona fide customer taking service directly from the main extension Refunds obligation will expire 10 years after the effective date of the Main Extension Agreement Maximum refund is the total cost of the project New Jersey American Water will make a one time refund payment for each new bona fide customer Refund payment for residential customers with a 1” service will be the Estimated Annual Revenues times the Refund Multiplier Example Area 1: Estimated Annual Revenue - Based upon most recent rate case. $591.00 x 10 = $5,910.00 refund per 1” connection

  26. 6.0 Revenue Refunds (Cont.) Non-Residential Estimated Annual Revenues (Includes services greater that 1” in diameter)- Based upon actual annual water revenue for months 13 through 24 Months 13 through 24 is used for various reasons Estimated annual revenue for water services greater than 1” are not provided in the Tariff Typically, multi-tenant buildings are not fully occupied within the first year of service Commercial facilities tend to be less consistent in usage patterns Often, site construction is continuing for a number of months after service has been installed

  27. 6.0 Revenue Refunds (Cont.) Note: Main Extension Agreements are currently being offered with the understanding that the current court ruling associated with Superior Court of NJ Appellate Division-Docket # A-2207-07T3 may have an impact on (1) whether or not refunds can be offered by New Jersey American Water in the future and (2) the actual calculation for determining such refunds. While we await final guidance from the BPU regarding refunds, New Jersey American Water will calculate refunds under the current guidelines and treat all projects under agreement as “smart growth” or refund eligible.
