Donaghey to Conway South: Upgrade Line & Hamlet: Install Breaker on Conway Industrial Line

Donaghey to Conway South: Upgrade Line & Hamlet: Install Breaker on Conway Industrial Line Scenario: • Loss of the Helena Industrial - Ritchie SES 115 k. V line segment causes low voltages at various substations • Loss of the Pleasant Hill - Quitman 161 k. V line segment causes an overload on the Conway West to Donaghey and Donaghey to Conway South 161 k. V transmission line sections. The Conway West - Donaghey line has been upgraded. • The Pleasant Hill – Quitman line and the Morrilton East to Quitman line are subjected to unanticipated transactions which tend to overload the Morrilton East to Quitman line for the loss of the Pleasant Hill to Quitman line.

Holland Bottoms: Construct 500/161/115 k. V Substation Scenario: • For the past two summers,

Holland Bottoms: Construct 500/161/115 k. V Substation Scenario: • For the past two summers, several stations in Little Rock observed voltages as low as 91% of nominal with no significant contingencies. • The loss of one of the 500/115 k. V transformers at Mabelvale in 2006 resulted in low voltages in the Little Rock area during periods where heavy flows to the north were occurring. • A loss of the second transformer at Mabelvale (N-2) could result in widespread low voltage in the Little Rock area. Proposed Solution: • Construct a 500/115 k. V substation near Cabot Northeast of Little Rock. This will provide voltage support to Little Rock and reduce some thermal contingencies. Proposed In Service Date: 2011 15

Warren East: Install 10. 8 MVAR Capacitor Bank Scenario: • The Warren East is a substation which is located in southeastern Arkansas, northeast of El Dorado. This is a long radial line fed from Monticello East and El Dorado EHV which is approximately 61 miles. Loss of any of the line segment along this line causes voltages to dip below 90%. Also, voltages in this area drop during the loss of the 500/115 k. V at El Dorado EHV. Proposed Solution: • Install a 10. 8 MVAR capacitor bank to the operating bus at the Warren East substation.

Harrison East to Everton Road: Replace Switches and Line Trap Scenario: • Harrison East

Harrison East to Everton Road: Replace Switches and Line Trap Scenario: • Harrison East to Hilltop has a limited of 167 MVA due to breaker B 4836 switches at Harrison East and the line trap at Harrison East. The switches are currently rated at 600 Amps and the line trap is rated for 600 Amps. BY upgrading the switches and line trap the line rating will increase from 167 MVA to 223 MVA. Proposed Solution: • • Install 2 sets of switches at Harrison East on breaker B 4836. The new switches need to be rated no less than 1200 Amps. Install a new line trap at Harrison East with a rating no less than 1200 Amps. Proposed In Service Date: 2011 25

Ebony Switching Station: Convert to a Breaker Station Scenario: • The loss of West

Ebony Switching Station: Convert to a Breaker Station Scenario: • The loss of West Memphis EHV to West Memphis Polk causes low voltages at WM Polk and WM Lehi. To prevent this, Ebony SS will be converted to a breaker station. • Ebony SS ties together Kuhn Road, WM Gateway, Marked Tree, WM Lehi and WM Polk. The current configuration has Marked Tree to WM Lehi bypassing the switching station. This also prevents a creation of an operational guide for the TOC to remove the low voltages condition if an event should occur. Proposed Solution: • Convert Ebony SS to a 5 breaker station (Single Bus Single Breaker Scheme). Additional land may need to be purchased. Proposed In Service Date: 2012 31

Beebe: Install 21. 6 MVAR Capacitor Bank Scenario: • The loss of the Cabot

Beebe: Install 21. 6 MVAR Capacitor Bank Scenario: • The loss of the Cabot to Ward 115 k. V Transmission line segment causes low voltages along line 937. Line 937 breaker to breaker is from Jacksonville North to Searcy Price. Since there is a capacitor bank at Cabot, the loss of Jacksonville to Cabot is not as severe. The Cabot capacitor bank is 32. 4 MVAR (30. 53 MVAR at 115 k. V). Proposed Solution: • Install a 21. 6 MVAR, 115 k. V capacitor bank at Beebe Substation. Proposed In Service Date: Winter 2010 33

Holland Bottoms - Hamlet: Construct New 161 k. V Line Scenario: • The loss

Holland Bottoms - Hamlet: Construct New 161 k. V Line Scenario: • The loss of the 161 k. V transmission line from Pleasant Hill to Quitman causes an overload on the Conway West to Donaghey and Donaghey to Conway South 161 k. V transmission line sections. There are two 161 k. V transmission lines that push power to North/Northwest Arkansas due to daily and long term/firm transactions. One of the lines runs through the City of Conway (Morrilton East to Quitman) and the other is north of Conway (Pleasant Hill to Quitman). When the Pleasant Hill to Quitman line trips the Morrilton to Conway West to Quitman line now has to handle not only the load in the Conway area but the transactions flowing North. Proposed Solution: • • Convert Hamlet SS to a breaker station (Single Bus Single Breaker Scheme) Move the Quitman line from Gold Creek to Hamlet SS Move the Gravel Ridge line from Gold Creek to Hamlet SS Construct a line from Hamlet SS to Holland Bottoms with a rating no less than 1200 Amps Proposed In Service Date: 2012 35

Ridgeland-Madison Reliability Improvement Scenario: • The Lakeover -NE Jackson - Rex Brown 115 k. V line is 25 miles long and will serve 6 substations totaling 194 MW in 2009. A new substation, Sunnybrook will be fed from this line (2011) which will add to the existing line loading. • The loss of the Rex Brown - Hico, Hico - N. Jackson 115 k. V lines in 2009 causes overloads on the Lakeover - Livingston Rd 115 k. V line. The loss of the Lakeover Livingston Rd or Livingston Rd - Ridgeland 115 k. V lines causes the Rex Brown - Hico - N. Jackson 115 k. V lines to overload. Recommended Solution: • Build a 115 k. V substation in the existing Northpark 230 k. V substation and cut in the Lakeover-NE Jackson line at Northpark (between Ridgeland Country Club). Connect the new circuit to the new 115 k. V bus at the Northpark substation. This new circuit will be used for the feed to the new Sunnybrook substation. Double-Circuit the existing Lakeover–Livingston–Ridgeland 115 k. V line, upgrading the existing line to at least 231 MVA. Proposed In Service Date: 2011/2012 62

Install 2 nd 500/230 k. V Autotransformer at Mc. Adams & Upgrade Mc. Adams-Pickens

Install 2 nd 500/230 k. V Autotransformer at Mc. Adams & Upgrade Mc. Adams-Pickens 230 k. V Line Scenario: • The 500/230 k. V autotransformer at Mc. Adams overloads for the loss of Mc. Adams - Lakeover 500 k. V line. • The Mc. Adams - Pickens 230 k. V line, which supports the Canton/Madison area, overloads when a 2 nd 500/230 k. V autotransformer is added to eliminate the overload of the existing transformer. Recommended Solution: • Add 2 nd 500/230 k. V auto at Mc. Adams substation. Upgrade Mc. Adams Pickens 230 k. V line with double bundled 954 ACSR (or equivalent) to a capacity of at least 880 MVA. Proposed In Service Date: 2011 64

Ray Braswell - Byram 115 k. V Line Construction Scenario: • The SW Jackson

Ray Braswell - Byram 115 k. V Line Construction Scenario: • The SW Jackson to Byram to Brookhaven line is 53 miles long and serves 162 MW of load. • The loss of the SW Jackson to Elton or Elton to Byram 115 k. V lines will cause overloads on three line sections from Brookhaven to Hazlehurst 115 k. V and undervoltages on various buses in 2009. • In addition, the loss of Brookhaven - Wesson or Wesson - James Rd. will cause overloads on two line sections from SW Jackson to Byram. Recommended Solution: • Build a new 115 k. V line from Ray Braswell through Wyndale (future substation) to Byram 115 k. V substation with a rating of at least 261 MVA. Proposed In Service Date: 2013 68

Add 2 nd 230/115 k. V Autotransformer at Getwell & Getwell-Hernando 230 k. V

Add 2 nd 230/115 k. V Autotransformer at Getwell & Getwell-Hernando 230 k. V Line Construction Scenario: • The Hornlake-Hernando area in Northwest Mississippi is experiencing a high annual growth rate. The Getwell-Batesville 115 k. V line will serve about 124 MW of load in 2013 and Getwell-Hornlake 115 k. V serves about 145 MW. • Loss of Getwell-Hernando 115 k. V section overloads the Batesville-Sardis 115 k. V section. Low voltages are also projected at Hernando, Coldwater and Senatobia substations. Loss of 230/115 k. V auto at Getwell overloads the Hornlake-Greenbrook segment. Recommended Solution: • Construct a new line from Getwell-Hernando with 230 k. V specifications (operating at 115 k. V) with a minimum rating of 240 MVA. • Install a second 230/115 k. V autotransformer at Getwell. Proposed In Service Date: 2013 70
