RESOLUTION

WHEREAS, a cooperative agreement was entered into by the counties of Bedford,
Franklin and Pittsylvania for formation of the Tri- County AEP Relicensing Committee
("TCRC'); and
WHEREAS, the cooperative agreement was subsequently amended to include the
County of Campbell; and
WHEREAS, the purpose for forming TCRC was the realization that the four counties
could be more effective if they negotiated a common position throughout the relicensing process
of American Electric Power's Smith Mountain Hydroelectric Plants if they worked in unison
towards achieving common goals; and
WHEREAS, the purpose and mission of the TCRC was to exclusively focus on the
relicensing process of the Project; and
WHEREAS, by Order dated December 15, 2009, the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (the "FERC ") issued a new and amended license to Appalachian for the project; and
WHEREAS, a Shoreline Management Plan was made part of Appalachian's license by
FERC Order dated July 5, 2005. When the FERC renewed Appalachian's license in the FERC
License Order, it stated that the Shoreline Management Plan filed with Appalachian's license
application on March 27, 2008 was approved and made a part of the license; and
WHEREAS, on February 28, 2013, Appalachian and TCRC signed a Settlement
Agreement with revisions to the Shoreline Management Plan; and
WHEREAS, the purposes for which TCRC were formed have been met; and
WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the Counties to name the Tri- County Lake
Administrative Commission as the successor in interest to TCRC for any issues that may arise
and specifically to be the successor in interest as to the above referenced license issued to
Appalachian Power and the above referenced Settlement Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Pittsylvania County Board of
Supervisors concurs that the purpose and mission of TCRC has been accomplished and that Tri-
County Lake Administrative Commission should be named the successor in interest to TCRC
and that the Chairman of the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors is authorized to sign the
Dissolution of the Tri- County AEP Relicensing Committee Agreement dissolving TCRC.
Given under my hand this 21s` day of April, 2015.
