Below are corrections or clarifications to the April 2007 update to the CRC-CAA Implementation Manual. Please check this page often to see what has been added.

Attachment A: PTCS Duct Sealing in Existing Manufactured Homes, p.77: adds the word "SGC".
Retrofit PTCS Duct Sealing in SGC Manufactured Homes is not a cost-effective measure in HZ 1, and, therefore, it is not eligible for credit/reimbursement in HZ 1. (5/31/07). Johnson SGC Letter 11/07

Attachment A: New Industrial Construction, p.90: adds an exception for large lighting projects.
This change adds an exception for large (>100,000 kWh) lighting projects to be submitted as custom proposals for NEW as well as EXISTING industrial lighting-only projects.

Attachment A: Residential Sector, Air Source Heat Pumps, p.71: adds the phrase "effective October 1, 2007" to the second bullet.
This phrase clarifies that "Where a house does not have a substantial amount of ductwork in unconditioned space, the Heat Pump with Ducts Inside measure must be claimed (not applicable to heating zone 1," EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1, 2007.

Five Guiding Principles:

• BPA will use the Northwest Power and Conservation Council plan to identify the agency's share of cost-effective conservation.
• Most conservation will be pursued and achieved at the local level.
• BPA will seek to meet its conservation goals at the lowest possible cost and lowest possible rate impact.
• BPA will continue an appropriate level of funding for local administrative support to plan and implement conservation programs.
• Although they often don't yield measurable savings, successful initiatives such as education, outreach, and low-income weatherization are important pieces of the conservation portfolio and should continue to be funded.
