Public Notices Published Tuesday, July 26th, 2011Notice
Notice is hereby given, pursuant to Article IV, Section 21(D)(1) of the Louisiana Constitution, that on July 21, 2011, Entergy Louisiana, LLC (“ELL” or the “Company”) an electric public utility providing retail electric service to customers in forty-six (46) Parishes of the State of Louisiana, filed with the Louisiana Public Service Commission (“LPSC”), pursuant to Article IV, Section 21(D)(3) of the Louisiana Constitution and Title 45, Section 1163.1 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes, a supplemental Application (“Application”) for Re-Approval and Re-Issuance of a Financing Order to Securitize Investment Recovery Costs Related to the Little Gypsy Unit 3 Repower Project authorizing the Company to finance its investment recovery costs pursuant to Act 988. This filing relates to LPSC Docket No. U-30192 and is being filed in LPSC Docket No. U-31894.
On April 13, 2011, ELL filed with the LPSC a document styled “Supplemental and Amending Application for Approval to Securitize Investment Recovery Costs Related to the Little Gypsy Unit 3 Repower Project” (April Application”) and a proposed Financing Order. The parties to that proceeding entered into a Stipulated Settlement with regard to the Company’s April Application and Financing Order and the LPSC approved the April Application and Financing Order at its June 22, 2011 meeting and that approval was memorialized in LPSC Order Nos. U-31894 and U-31894-A issued on June 24, 2011. ELL’s current Application effectively seeks re-approval and re-issuance of the Financing Order solely to cure a publication of legal notice error that occurred in five parishes in which ELL operates. There are no material changes between the Financing Order for which ELL is now seeking approval and the Financing Order previously approved by the LPSC.
In conjunction with Act 988 of the Louisiana Legislature’s Regular Session of 2010, the parties reached agreement on a Proposed Uncontested Stipulated Settlement (“Stipulated Settlement”) in LPSC Docket No. U-30192 (Phase III) and the Commission approved that Stipulated Settlement at its May 2011 meeting, thereby resolving all issues among the parties in Phase III, including: (1) the cancellation of the Little Gypsy 3 repowering project; (2) the establishment of a quantification of the prudently incurred and recoverable cancellation costs; (3) the level(s) at which carrying costs may be accrued on a going forward basis; (4) the appropriate allocation of the recoverable cancellation costs among the Companies’ customer classes and customers; and (5) subject to the issuance of an appropriate financing order, the framework for the securitization of the recovery costs.
The Financing Order submitted with this July 21, 2011 filing in LPSC Docket No. U-31984 addresses the request of ELL, under Act No. 988 to: (1) finance, through the issuance of investment recovery bonds, ELL’s investment recovery costs in the amount of $200,000,000.00, as determined in LPSC Docket No. U-30192 (Phase III), plus carrying costs on such investment recovery costs and up-front financing costs associated with the issuance of investment recovery bonds; (2) approve the proposed financing structure and issuance of investment recovery bonds; (3) approve the creation of investment recovery property, including the right to impose and collect investment recovery charges sufficient to pay the investment recovery bonds and associated financing costs; (4) approve a tariff to implement the investment recovery charges; and (5) approve another tariff to implement ancillary cost offsets and cost recovery relating to the investment recovery costs process.
Because the actual revenue requirement will not be known until after the pricing of the investment recovery bonds, it is only possible to estimate typical bills at this time. The estimated monthly bill of a typical residential customer using 1,000 kWh will increase by $0.45 per month, representing a 0.48% increase.
A copy of the filing in the above-mentioned dockets may be viewed in the Office of the Louisiana Public Service Commission in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Juror Scott discussed venting the ice machine at the Public Works Center Juror Campbell asked for the Superintendent to get prices.
Juror Scott discussed assignment of truck- For the Record
“Gentlemen, recently the Franklin Parish Police Jury traded in a larger or heavy duty truck (which was driven by James Killian). This truck was using too much fuel for its assigned job sites each day. As you may recall, I spoke against purchasing this type truck years ago. Never the less, we purchased the truck anyway. The truck the jury has purchased should have been assigned to James (who happened to be black), but it was not assigned to James. It was assigned to Luther Smith. The reason stated for not assigning the newly purchased truck‚ was to purchase a two-wheel drive truck for Luther and give the older model truck to James (which happened to be a four-wheel drive truck). The two- wheel drive truck supposedly would have used less fuel than the four-wheel drive truck. I have check with several mechanics and was told that the increase in fuel consumption would only happen when the four-wheel drive is placed in to use. The four-wheel drive truck rarely would be used. As a whole, the significant of the two trucks is very small. Fellow jurors, this is a disguised and -I say this politely and nicely toward our part- form of prejudice and /or disintegration. Surly, we must do our best in saving fuel cost. This does not look good in order to network the employees with the jurors and citizens of Franklin parish. An act like this is what causes displeasure between workers and not trusting others. If we are really concerned about fuel cost, why not purchase an S-10 or some other smaller vehicle. So, I just sit here and think that it just threw up a wrong flag. I don’t like to use the work black, I don’t like to use the word white, I like to use us as employee’s and jurors because we are the body and should be working with each other.”
Nolan Norman Park Supervisor- Motion was made by Juror Scott and seconded by Juror Harris to pay $400.00 for Nolan Norman Park Supervisor for June and July 2011. Unanimously approved
Jessie Lemle- Discussed with jury the possibility of adding another park in Wisner. Juror Campbell asked that Juror Lewis talk to the Major of Wisner, and the matter be discussed at the July meeting.
Juror Scott stated that $800.00 left in park account after paying $250.00 for purchasing a fence for baseball field. He would like to donate $500.00 to new park in Wisner if new park is constructed. Motion was made by Juror Scott and seconded by Juror Robinson. Unanimously approved
Ryan Daniels and Cain Finkbeiner from the Wildlife Fisheries came to discuss Turkey Creek. Mr. Daniels explained to the Jury that they have no plans on draining the creek again and that they have been spraying every week to kill the salavina in the creek Mr. Daniels wants people to know that a lot of the time duckweed is usually mistaken for salavina. Mr. Daniels was asked if Wildlife and Fisheries had any plans of adding fish to the creek. Mr. Daniels stated that they added 30,000 Florida bass to Turkey Creek. Mr. Daniels was asked if individuals could stock the creek. Mr. Daniels informed the jury that there was a permit that had to be acquired from Wildlife and Fisheries.
Riley Williams- Discuss the need for the ditches on Claybon Road to be dug out. And two culverts were removed by the parish and needs to be replaced. Mr. Williams’s son stated that the ditches on Claybon Road have not been cleaned out in many; years and also, the canal needs to be cleaned out. The parish Superintendent explained that Mr. Killingworth will not sign right of way allowing access to the canal. The Superintendent was asked to shoot the grade on the ditch and get with Mr. Parker and David Doughty to obtain the proper right of ways. Juror Campbell asked the Superintendent to check on the situation and add ditching of Claybon Road to the work schedule.
Superintendent Report- Completed Roads: Canal Road and Chapman Road - In Progress Roads: Carroll Road, Loflin Road, Lee Boutwell Road, and Elam Woods Road
Motion was made by Juror Parks and seconded by Juror Hendry to approve the work schedule for the month of June. Unanimously approved
Public Works Committee-
Accepting Roads into the system- The following request were made: Wimberley Road, a road off of Ward III School Road, road off of Roberts Road, and Beatrice Ezell Road. Due to discrepancies and request being received after the public works committee meeting on the 7th, the committee held another meeting on the 9th and decided the following - it is the recommendation of the committee to revise the parish ordinance before accepting more roads in the system. Each juror has been provided with all documentation regarding parish road criteria. The jurors are asked to please edit their package and return to Christina for a revised ordinance to be considered. It is also the recommendation of the committee to consider leaving the section pertaining to newly constructed roads being inspected by the parish engineer and the section regarding roads that were left out of the parish system when 911 communications was established. The committee agrees that these roads should be accepted back into the system.
Abe Lincoln Sewer accepting sewer sludge- around Dec. 2010 Dr. Reed contacted Sam Wiggins to find out if any of the parish sewer districts could accept sewer sludge or waste from port o potties. After months of questioning, resubmitting Abe Lincoln’s standard permit to reflect intent to change, the application for disposal of sewage sludge (biosolids) began. There is a portion that Ms. Wiggins was not qualified to answer therefore: the question was forwarded to the Parish Engineer. It is the recommendation of the committee to comply with the engineer’s advice to deny accepting Sewage Sludge into parish system. Motion was made by Juror Parks and seconded by Juror Scott. Unanimously approved

Personnel Committee-
Troy Jacobs 6 months probationary period as shop foreman- It is the recommendation of the committee to increase Mr. Jacob’s rate of pay by .75. Mr. Jacobs has preformed outstandingly as a mechanic, as a foreman and has saved the parish thousands by performing major repairs in- house. Motion was made by Juror Robinson and seconded by Juror Lewis. Unanimously approved
Brandon McMurray- Mr. Jacobs approached the committee requesting that Brandon McMurray be taken from probationary status to full-time employee with an increase of pay. The committee feels that Mr. McMurray should complete his 6 month probationary period to continue with consistency in personnel policy. Mr. McMurray’s probationary period will be completed in Sept. of this year.
James Killian- Mr. Killian was asked by the jurors if he had any issues or problems with the vehicle assigned to him last month. Mr. Killian stated that his only problem was that the truck needs shocks. Mr. Killian was asked if he would like the truck that was purchased to replace the truck (#3) instead of the one he is driving. Mr. Killian replied, “No, that truck is a two wheel drive and I need a four wheel drive. Mr. Killian also stated, “That Ford truck (referring to #3) was killing me getting in and out of it. Also, rolling that thing leaning out the door was tough.” Mr. Humphries asked Mr. Killian to confirm that he was asked about the vehicle change prior to the change being made and Mr. Killian stated yes.
Mosquito Sprayers- if one of our current employees also sprays mosquitoes, then their pay for spraying will fall into/ad to overtime. The mosquito fund will not sustain paying overtime wages.
Motion was made by Juror Scott and seconded by Juror Parks for 12 hour holiday pay under new work schedule. Unanimously approved
Motion was made by Juror Scott and seconded by Juror Parks - Robert Gladen- In years past, Skipper Stinson was paid 2,000 a year to allow the parish to spray mosquito under his license. Mr. Gladen has since been licensed and leads our mosquito abatement program. Mr. Humphries ask that Mr. Gladen be paid the same rate for the use of his license. After referring with the parish auditor an option was found. Mr. Gladen can be paid 76.92 per check for the use of his license in the mosquito abatement program. (2000 divided by 26 pay periods= 76.92) as long as he retains his license for the parish. Motion was made by Juror Scott and seconded by Juror Parks. Unanimously approved
Recreation Committee- Mr. Tyrone Johnson request that 6 gloves, 1 bat, 1 home plate and 1 pitcher’s mound be purchased for the park. Mr. Lewis asks that he himself be issued the equipment at the beginning of each summer and he will take the responsibility of replacing any lost equipment.

Unanimously approved contingent upon the advice of the Parish Auditor and Parish Attorney.
Turkey Creek Park- Mr. Scott stressed the need for the ramps to the bathrooms at Turkey Creek Park are constructed immediately. Due to lack of funds, this project was delayed. The committee agrees and requests the jury to vote for the construction of the ramp. Motion was made by Juror Parks and seconded by Juror Scott. Unanimously approved
