PLAN POLICIES  Utility Integrated Resource Plans (IRPs) prepared by regulated utilities for review by the Vermont Public Service Board under state "least cost integrated planning" (LCIP) requirements (under 30 V.S.A. § 218c). Opportunities for public involvement are provided during each plan update process, though public hearings or forums may be held outside of the region. Current state and utility energy plans also should be reviewed in the development of local energy plans– particularly for state or utility policies, programs and projects that may affect your community. For example, the current Vermont Long Range Transmission Plan identifies a number of proposed transmission projects in our region – including line and substation upgrades – to correct known system deficiencies. Energy Coordinator or Energy Committee The Act also provides towns with the ability to appoint an Energy Committee or Coordinator. An increasing number of Vermont towns are opting to create an energy committee. There are a few different ways in which an energy committee can be organized. The first is as an ad hoc committee, the second as a subcommittee to the planning or conservation committee and the third as a committee appointed by, and reporting to, the selectboard. Another option is the appointment of an Energy Coordinator. The coordinator functions similarly to a committee and may serve as an ex-officio, nonvoting member of the planning commission. Tips for Success:  Start with small, manageable projects that have highly visible results to build a repertoire of success for the community.  Reach out to other successful committees for support and ideas.  Ensure support of town officials by keeping them informed and up to date regarding the committee’s activities as well as soliciting their input on projects.  Recruit a diverse set of individuals to serve on the committee to ensure the constituent base is well represented.  Gather a good sense of public desires and values in order to tailor projects to those aspects. Municipal Energy Regulation Vermont municipalities have limited authority to directly regulate energy facility development. In accordance with the Act (24 V.S.A. § 4413), a bylaw shall not regulate public utility power generating plants and transmission facilities that are regulated by the Vermont Public Service Board (under 30 V.S.A. § 248). This includes smaller "net-metered" facilities that are hooked into the power grid. It does not include off-grid systems, or systems that are not regulated by the PSB (e.g., solar thermal installations). Given this limitation, municipalities are beginning to develop more specific facility siting and development policies or standards, to be included or appended to their plans, for use in the review of projects before the Public Service Board, and for amending local bylaws as allowed under state law. 5
