Eugene -Springfield Area Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan <br />5. Annexes <br />A.2 Applicable Regulations, Plans <br />EWEB's elected Board of Commissioners annually reviews and adopts the ten-year <br />capital improvement plans for the water and electric utility. Resiliency is a strategic <br />priority for the utility, therefore the mitigation actions described in the Natural Hazard <br />Mitigation Plan are reflected in the capital improvement plans. Over the next five <br />years, EWEB has plans for $204M in electric capital projects and $95M in water <br />system upgrades. Annual Board review and adoption of the capital improvement plans <br />ensures that mitigation action items have both policy -level and financial commitments <br />for implementation and affords a mechanism to explicitly track project progress or <br />delays in a public meeting setting. Once adopted, EWEB's NHMP priority actions will <br />be included as an attachment to the capital improvement plans to further reinforce <br />integration of the plans. <br />• Eugene City Charter Chapter X, Section 44: <br />Conveys authority to maintain and operate the electric and water utility to the <br />Eugene Water & Electric Board. <br />• Eugene City Code 2.175 — 2.212 <br />Sets forth powers and duties of the Eugene Water & Electric Board. <br />• 2019 Electric and Water 10-Year Capital Improvement Plans <br />Describes routine capital work like pole and water main replacements, specific <br />upgrades over $1 million such as reservoir rebuilds, and large multi -year <br />projects typically financed through bonds.
