Pursuant to the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) regulations governing operation and maintenance of power projects, found at 25 CFR 175, BIA Colorado River Agency hereby notifies its electrical power utility customers of our new service fee schedule and adjusted purchase power costs. The changes will be effective Febuary 1, 2022.
We reviewed our fees and rates to determine if our financial and statutory requirements are being met. We determined our fees for providing specific administrative or customer services need to be changed—see Colorado River Agency Electrical Services Fee Schedule.
Because our purchased power costs are determined by market rates, which have risen in part because of the ongoing drought, we need to implement a purchased power adjustment. In addition to our existing electric power rates, all customers will be charged $0.00925 per kilowatt-hour used for purchased power costs.
Should you have any questions, please email CRA at CRA-ES_Billing@bia.gov.
