Bonneville Power Leadership Recruitment Act

This bill would change how pay is set for the head of the Bonneville Power Administration and its employees. Starting about 6 months after the bill becomes law, the Secretary of Energy would set the Administrator's pay to be comparable to chief executives of consumer-owned utilities in the Western Interconnection. Pay for other Bonneville employees, including senior executives, would also be set to match similar jobs at those utilities. The Secretary would base these decisions on an annual pay survey and keep them within the agency's approved administrative budget. The bill would also remove the Administrator from the existing federal executive pay schedule.
