5(b)(1) and 9(c) of the Northwest Power Act

AGENCY: Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), Department of Energy.

ACTION: Notice of final policy.

SUMMARY: In July 2007, the Bonneville Power Administration released its 
Long-Term Regional Dialogue Final Policy (RD Policy) and associated 
Record of Decision (ROD). The RD Policy proposed specific, related 
changes to BPA's May 2000 Policy on Determining Net Requirements Under 
Sections 5(b)(1) and 9(c) of the Northwest Power Act (5(b)/9(c) Policy) 
that BPA identified as necessary for the successful implementation of 
the RD Policy. Accordingly, BPA conducted a limited-scope review of its 
5(b)/9(c) Policy for the purpose of supporting the implementation of 
the RD Policy.
    Section II.B.8 of the RD Policy describes the limited changes to 
the 5(b)/9(c) Policy. BPA issued its 2008 Proposal for Modifications to 
BPA's Policy on Determining Net Requirements Under Sections 5(b) and 
9(c) of the Northwest Power Act for public comment in September 2008. 
Proposed modifications to the 5(b)/9(c) Policy were limited to the 
changes stated in the RD Policy and necessary enabling language. Upon 
review and consideration of comment, BPA is now releasing its Revised 
Policy on Determining Net Requirements of Pacific Northwest Utility 
Customers Under Sections 5(b)/(1) and 9(c) of the Northwest Power Act 
and its associated ROD.

DATES: On March 19, 2009, the BPA Administrator signed the 5(b)/9(c) 
ROD adopting the Revised Policy on Determining Net Requirements of 
Pacific Northwest Utility Customers Under Sections 5(b)(1) and 9(c) of 
the Northwest Power Act.

ADDRESSES: The Revised 5(b)/9(c) Policy and ROD are available on the 
BPA Web site at https://www.bpa.gov/power/pl/regionaldialogue/implementation/documents/. Copies are also available by contacting 
BPA's Public Information Center at (800) 622-4520.
