NCPA’s policy efforts are designed to protect and enhance the value of NCPA’s investments and the ability of NCPA members to provide their customers with reliable, low-cost, and environmentally responsible electric service through joint action. The overall NCPA Legislative and Regulatory Affairs Program includes advocacy on energy and consumer issues at the state and federal levels.

The program is overseen by the Agency’s Legislative and Regulatory Affairs Committee, comprised of locally-elected officials or appointed officials representing each of NCPA’s 16 member utilities and districts.   The Committee is currently chaired by Jenelle Osborne, Mayor of the City of Lompoc.
