Box 14428, Portland, OR 97293-4428 Residential Exchange Program The May 3 decisions by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit held that BPA had exceeded its authority in settling the level of REP benefits in agreements with investor-owned utilities in 2000. This ruling put into question the level of benefits currently provided and the level that should result under Long-Term Regional Dialogue contracts. BPA suspended monthly REP payments to the IOUs until their legality and appropriate level can be clarified. Since the court decisions, BPA has encouraged representatives of public power and the IOUs to try to reach broad agreement on how to resolve REP benefits issues.
