The Bradley Lake Project Management Committee is accepting proposals from attorneys or law firms to provide legal services for the 120-megawatt hydroelectric facility near Homer. The committee manages the project on behalf of the Alaska Energy Authority and five partner utilities.

Proposals are due May 14. The selected firm will handle governance issues, coordination among the partner utilities, regulatory compliance, and asset management for the facility.

The Bradley Lake project supplies power to Chugach Electric Association, Matanuska Electric Association, Homer Electric Association, Golden Valley Electric Association, and the City of Seward. The committee operates under power sales agreements that govern how the facility is managed and how electricity is distributed.

The legal work covers the ongoing operation, maintenance, and improvement of the hydroelectric plant. The committee needs counsel familiar with utility law, inter-agency agreements, and Alaska energy regulations.

Interested firms can view the full request for proposals on the Alaska Online Public Notices system. The procurement number is 26083. Questions about the solicitation should be directed to the Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development.

The committee will review proposals and select a firm to begin work after the May 14 deadline.
