Wholesale Customer Review. A. One or more Wholesale Customers, or BAWSCA, may engage an independent certified public accountant (CPA) to conduct a review (at its or their expense) of San Francisco’s calculation of the annual Wholesale Revenue Requirement and a review of changes in the balancing account. B. If a Wholesale Customer or BAWSCA wishes such a review to be conducted it will provide written notice to SFPUC within 30 days of the date the Compliance Auditor’s report is issued. The notice will identify the CPA or accounting/auditing firm that will conduct the review and the specific aspects of the Compliance Auditor’s report that are the subject of the review. If more than one notice of review is received by the SFPUC, the requesting Wholesale Customers shall combine and coordinate their reviews and select a lead auditor to act on their behalf for the purposes of requesting documents and conducting on-site investigations. C. San Francisco will cooperate with the CPA appointed by a Wholesale Customer or BAWSCA. This cooperation includes making requested records promptly available, making knowledgeable SFPUC personnel available to timely and truthfully answer the CPA’s questions and directing the Compliance Auditor to cooperate with the CPA. D. The Wholesale Customer’s review shall be completed within 60 days after the date the Compliance Auditor’s report is issued. At the conclusion of the review, representatives of San Francisco and BAWSCA shall meet to discuss any differences between them concerning San Francisco’s compliance with Articles 5 or 6 of this Agreement during the preceding fiscal year or San Francisco’s calculation of the Wholesale Revenue Requirement for the preceding fiscal year. If such differences cannot be resolved, the dispute shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Section 8.01.
