Committee secures FOIA language in electric supply agreement
Summary
Members said staff and counsel accepted language the committee requested to preserve FOIA access in section 16 of the nonresidential electric supply agreement; the change was described as central to Kelsey's concerns.
A committee member (S3) told colleagues that staff and counsel agreed to insert the committee's requested Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) language into section 16 of the nonresidential electric supply commodity master agreement.
"They were going to add the language that we requested to the FOIA to section 16. That was really the big one for Kelsey's perspective, and they did that," the member said in a recap of prior meetings and counsel discussions. The acceptance of that clause was presented as a key win for the committee's oversight concerns.
Committee members noted other contractual points remained under discussion — including transmission-rate pass-through and default definitions — but cited the FOIA provision as the primary change secured during negotiations. No litigation, citation, or formal FOIA text appears in the transcript; the exact wording added to the agreement was not provided in the meeting record.
