FY 2009. The commercial paper program will be increased to over $100 million in FY 2011. A description of the assumptions and major issues in each major expenditure category follows. . Personnel service expenditures are $0.3 million, or 0.3 percent below the approved FY 2010 budget. This decrease is attributable to lower vacancy rates as filled positions have increased in recent years. Fringe benefits were adjusted based on current market rates. . Contractual service expenditures increase by $O.t million, or 0.1 percent, overthe approved FY 2010 budget due primarily to funding for various contractual services throughout the organization. Funding was also added to improve water main infrastructure repair/replacement needs and for professional services to maximize our new business processes, such as MAXIMO. . Waterpurchaseexpenditures increase by $0.9 million or3.1 percent overthe approved FY 2010 budget. This directly relates to operating cost increases for the Washington Aqueduct's budget. . Chemicals and supplies expenditures increase by $0.0S million, or 1.1 percent, from the approved FY 2010 budget. . Utilities expenditures decrease by $+.2 million, or 11.2 percent, primarily due to lower anticipated electricity costs. Electricity, budgeted at $29.3 million, or 11 percent of the revised FY 2010 budget, continues to be the largest portion of the Authority's utilities budget. Electricity prices have been extremely volatile for the past several years, due to rising oil prices, heavy global demand for power and oil, and the after effects of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in FY 2005. We continue to utilize the five-year electricity contract entered in FY 2005 for electricity generation. ln FY 2009, DC WASA was successful in purchasing its electricity for an average cost of $95.52 per megawatt hour compared to an estimated average cost of $142.3 per megawatt hour had DC WASA acquired its electricity through the PEPCO Standard Offer Service (SOS). This represented an estimated savings of $13.1 million in FY 2009. We continue to mitigate the Authority's exposure from higher energy prices that occur during peak demand periods by periodically locking in portions of our electricity load, especially for the summer and winter periods. Working with our electric energy service company, we continue to monitor the electricity market on a continuing basis and explore alternatives that could yield additional cost savings. ln FY 2011, we will lock the majority of our electricity load; thus reducing potential budget exposure by $S million. DC WASA continues its environmental stewardship implementing environmentally responsive and responsible polices and programs. These actions protect the region's waterways, air, and land. ln FY 2009, DCWASA established a Carbon Footprint Steering Committee and an Energy Steering Team each led by the Energy Manager. The Carbon Footprint Steering Committee was established to formulate and provide guidance for the Authority's carbon footprint (greenhouse gases) inventory and reduction objectives and to serve as a resource in evaluating opportunities and challenges associated with evolving federal and regional carbon footprint legislation and regulation. At the end of FY 2009, DC WASA has completed its carbon footprint inventory as a part of tv -27
