Summary

The bill directs the Energy Secretary to set the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) Administrator’s salary and BPA employee wages at levels comparable to chief executives and similar roles at consumer‑owned utilities in the Western Interconnection. Pay rates will be based on an annual survey of those utilities and will consider experience, education, geographic differences and recruitment needs. The goal is to make BPA leadership and staff compensation competitive while supporting low electricity rates for consumers.
