Summary Narrative. ‌ “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times ….” See Residential Exchange Program Settlement Agreement Evaluation and Analysis Study, REP-12-E-BPA-01, at 1 (Evaluation Study), quoting in part Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, A TALE OF TWO CITIES, at 13 (Signet Classic 1997) (1859). The past decade has not been, in many respects, the best of times for the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) with regard to its implementation of the statutory exchange program established by section 5(c) of the Pacific Northwest Electric Power Planning and Conservation Act (Northwest Power Act), known as the Residential Exchange Program (REP). 16 U.S.C. § 839c(c)(1). For the better part of the last decade, BPA, six regional investor-owned utilities (IOUs), over a hundred consumer-owned utilities (COUs), and many other regional parties have been locked in continuous litigation over BPA’s implementation of the REP. During this period, BPA has issued 15 records of decision (RODs) relating to the REP, many of which were challenged by parties in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (Ninth Circuit or Court). The legacy of these contentious legal battles is three published court decisions, five unpublished opinions, two remands, and 56 newly filed petitions with the Court. With the closing of the litigious 2000–2010 period, BPA and the region are now facing yet another decade of contentious litigation and uncertainty over the REP. Better times, however, may yet lie ahead. In December of 2010, a number of regional parties presented BPA with a proposed settlement of the existing REP-related disputes that would replace BPA’s disputed implementation of the REP with a negotiated compromise. This settlement, the 2012 Residential Exchange Program Settlement (“2012 REP Settlement” or “Settlement”),1 reflects the efforts of a broad coalition of regional parties to replace the cycle of instability and litigation over the REP with stability and certainty for the benefit of all regional ratepayers. These parties, which include six IOUs, three state utility commissions, a number of COU representative groups, a retail ratepayer advocacy group, and COUs representing 88.1 percent of BPA’s load, have asked BPA to join their efforts in ending the litigation and controversy over the REP by adopting the Settlement. In response to these parties’ request for BPA to accept the Settlement, BPA has conducted this proceeding.

Summary Narrative. After review of presented materials and ongoing monitoring of adherence to contractual requirements throughout this eighteen-month period, it is determined that Metro West Ambulance (MWA) did not satisfactorily meet their obligations. As noted above, single lapses in compliance are circumstantial and does not constitute a failure of that criterion. As presented in this document, the lapses in Metro West Ambulance’s performance were not singular events. Strictly citing response time metrices, MWA failed to meet standard in all categories in multiple months; several consecutively. During initial investigation into the cause of these continued failures, several factors were discussed, but no one singular reason was discovered. With no demonstrated improvement from MWA, a performance improvement plan was submitted by MWA on November 26th, 2021. In review of this plan, it was discovered that MWA was offering significant sign-on and retention bonuses. The Washington County EMS Program (WCEMS) found this to be odd and inquired with MWA. It was with this inquiry that MWA noted they were having a significant staffing issue that was materially affecting their ability to maintain response readiness. It is important to note that staffing was not initially cited as a potential factor. Through collaboration with WCEMS and other Washington County EMS agencies, several plans were developed to help improve performance and
