Because the allocation amount is not a functional expense on Dairyland's audited financial statements, an adjustment of the allocated amount of $15,562,453 was required to reflect the correct audited gross margin for Dairyland of $18,226,560.

ExplanationIn 1987, Dairyland Power Cooperative shut down its La Crosse Boiling Water Reactor (LACBWR) nuclear power plant. Although LACBWR has been inactive since 1987, the facility still needs to be maintained until its final decommissioning. Dairyland has set aside over $80 million in a trust to pay for the ultimate decommissioning. In accordance with restrictions enacted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, an independent trustee (M & I Trust) holds title to the trust assets, and Dairyland does not control the day-to-day management of nuclear decommissioning trust fund investments. The nuclear decommissioning trust of Dairyland is managed by independent investment managers with discretion to buy, sell, and invest to achieve the broad investment objectives set forth by Dairyland. As of 12/31/11, $1.5 million of the total $80 million nuclear decommissioning trust fund was invested in foreign obligations within a NISA Fund. The NISA Fund invests primarily in the fixed income instruments of companies based in Australia, Mexico, Canada, South Korea, Norway, Europe and others.

ExplanationWilliam Berg, Robert Mueller and Dan Korn were all members/officers of the Board of Directors of Gen Sys Energy (GEN SYS). As of January 1, 2011, GEN SYS was folded into Dairyland's operations. Dairyland was a member of GEN SYS, a power supply and marketing cooperative, the primary purpose of which was to schedule and dispatch generation resources and to provide other power-related support services to its members, which also included Corn Belt Power Cooperative and Distribu-Gen Cooperative. GEN SYS was owned equally by its members, but in fiscal year 2010, substantially all of the GEN SYS activities that produced margin, including energy purchases and sales, were derived from Dairyland. Dairyland consolidated the accounts of GEN SYS in the consolidated balance sheets, the consolidated statements of revenues and expenses in non-utility operations, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for fiscal year 2010. All remaining net assets of GEN SYS were distributed to members during 2011. The transaction amount of $521,617 represents December 2010 net energy services paid on January 18, 2011.Explanation

All Average Hours Worked per Week were based on a separate questionnaire, specific to the Form 990 filing, that was completed by all directors, officers, key employees and highly compensated employees. Robert Mueller was an officer through his retirement on May 6, 2011.

Phillip Moilien replaced Robert Mueller as an officer as of May 6, 2011.
F990_P09_S00_L04Form 990, Part IX, Line 4Dairyland Power Cooperative's Board of Directors has adopted a policy of retiring capital credits allocated to members on a first-in, first-out basis. As part of an equity development strategy adopted in 2003, patronage capital retired will be limited to no greater than 2% of the total assigned patronage capital balance as of December 31 of the prior year. Accordingly, $2,602,895 was retired in 2011. This policy is subject to annual review and approval by the Board of Directors and the RUS, and no cash retirements are to be made which would impair the financial condition of the Cooperative or violate any terms of its agreements. Since 2003, the amount of non-operating margins assigned to members each year is at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Any unassigned non-operating margins will become unallocated reserves and part of permanent equity. Patronage capital as of December 31, 2011 included 2011 margins allocated/assignable of $15,562,453 and unallocated reserves of $2,664,107. It is our interpretation of federal cooperative tax law to report capital credits allocated during the tax year of $15,562,453 on Form 990, Part IX, Line 4.
