Ninth Circuit Upholds Public Power Position on Residential Exchange
In an important opinion released May 3, 2007, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals found that settlements reached in 2000 by BPA creating benefits to customers of Investor-Owned Utilities at the expense of customers of consumer-owned utilities were beyond BPA’s settlement authority and are illegal. The Court also ruled on two other rate matters involving Direct Service Industries and Fish and Wildlife costs. To view the cases click Golden Northwest Aluminum v. BPA and Portland General v. BPA.
