Composite Cost Pool True-up and Slice True-up Adjustment

BPA has posted for public review and comment the Composite Cost Pool True-Up Table and the Slice True-Up Adjustment, which reflects the actual expenses and revenue credits for FY 2023. BPA will allow 15 Business Days (or through Dec. 11, 2023 for the identification of any Slice True-Up Adjustment issue for consideration for BPA for inclusion in the Agreed Upon Procedures (AUPs), including questions regarding the sum of adjusted Tier One Cost Allocators (TOCAs), the actual Unused Rate Period High Water Mark (RHWM) credit, and the Slice Percentages used in this calculation. AUPs are defined as services that fall under the category of miscellaneous financial services provided to BPA by an external auditor that are covered contractually between BPA and an external auditor. After the identification of such issues, BPA will draft the tasks to be included in the AUPs to address such issues, if any, no later than Dec. 26, 2023. The FY 2023 Composite Cost Pool savings when compared to the Rate Case forecast is $100.8 million. As a result, the FY 2023 Slice True-Up Adjustment that is applicable to Slice customers is a total of $23.1 million, which is a credit. For more information, see Attachment A of the Tiered Rates Methodology, or click on the website listed below.
