IIi addition, <br />authority and collaboration responsibility for future transmission and system planning activities <br />will be delegated solely to the regions, along with additional staffing resources. Activities and <br />coordination for regional transmission groups and FERC rule-making issues will also fall into the <br />Resource and Planning group. ' <br /> <br />To ensure Western involvement and leadership in national technical developments in resource and <br />transmission planning, employees suggested a small number of staff intended to be assigned to <br />the regions should be retained in the CPO Design office.

Revenue requirement responsibility will be reassigned to <br />the DSW Financial Office and Power Operations & Maintenance responsibility to DSW <br />Operations. <br /> <br />, Final staffing level: 22 FTE <br /> <br />40 <br />
