What is the frequency of LADWP’s power generation control assessments?

The frequency of LADWP's power generation control assessments is determined by regulatory requirements, ensuring compliance with industry standards and safety protocols. Regulatory agencies impose specific mandates that dictate how often these assessments should take place. This approach helps to maintain system reliability, efficiency, and accountability, as well as to manage risks associated with power generation.

Regular assessments allow LADWP to proactively identify potential issues, improve operational practices, and ensure that all systems are functioning correctly. By adhering to the frequency set by regulatory agencies, LADWP not only satisfies legal obligations but also fosters public trust and safeguards the environment by ensuring that power generation operations are conducted safely and sustainably.

In contrast, other options suggest less systematic approaches—an annual or biennial schedule may not capture issues that could arise more frequently, and basing assessments solely on customer complaints may lead to reactive rather than proactive management of power generation controls.
