Energy Planning and Management Program

The Energy Policy Act of 1992 requires Western’s long-term firm power customers to prepare integrated resource plans.
To implement this requirement, in 1995, Western published a final rule, adopting the Energy Planning and Management Program. EPAMP set out the IRP requirements and established a framework for marketing long-term firm hydroelectric power under the Power Marketing Initiative.

The PMI extends existing firm power resource commitments and provides project-specific resource pools of power that can be allocated to new customers.

Projects covered by EPAMP’s PMI include:

Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin Program

Loveland Area Projects

Salt Lake City Area Integrated Projects

Central Valley

 Washoe

Parker-Davis Project (beginning in 2008)

Boulder Canyon power is under contract until 2017. Western will consider applying EPAMP to this project nearer to the time these contracts expire.
