TO THE ADMINISTRATOR AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
OF BONNEVILLE POWER ADMINISTRATION
1. DELEGATION.
1.1 Under the authority vested in me as Secretary of Energy and pursuant to section
642 of the Department of Energy Organization Act (Public Law 95-91.42 U.S.C.
7252), and pursuant to the authority delegated to me as the Secretary of Energy
by the Assistant Attorney General, Land and Natural Resources Division, on
December 1, 1980, I delegate to the Administrator and Chief Executive Officer
of the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) the authority and responsibility to
approve the sufficiency of the title to land being acquired by purchase or
condemnation by the United States for the use of the Department of Energy in
connection with acquisition of lands by the Bonneville Power Administration.
This delegation of authority is limited to: (a) the acquisition of land for which the
title evidence consists of a certificate of title, title insurance policy, or an owner's
duplicate Torrens certificate of title; and (b) the acquisition of lands valued at
$100,000 or less, for which the title evidence consists of abstracts of title or other
types of title evidence prepared in compliance with the Assistant Attorney
General's October 2, 1970 regulations, promulgated in accordance with the
provisions of Public Law 9 1-393, as amended.
Pursuant to the authority vested in me as the Secretary of Energy and by section
642 of the Department of Energy Organization Act (Public Law 95-9 I), there is
hereby delegated to the Administrator and Chief Executive Officer of the BPA
the authority to determine, for all Department of Energy directives, which
directives, or elements thereof, are applicable to the BPA, with the following
exceptions: (1) Those directives specified in the Appendix to this Order, which
will be fully applicable to BPA; and (2) those directives issued after the effective
date of this Order that by their terms specifically state that they are applicable to
BPA. The Administrator and Chief Executive Officer shall have the authority to
require that officers, employees, and contractors and subcontractors of the BPA
comply with local BPA directives.

authority granted to me under sections 1 605(b)(2) and 1605(b)(3) of the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 ("Recovery ActW)(Public
Law 11 1-5) to waive, after making the specified findings, the application of
section 1605(a) of the Recovery Act to BPA expenditures. Section 1605(a)

the Recovery Act may be used for construction, alteration, maintenance or repair
of a public building or public work unless all of the iron, steel and manufactured
goods are produced in the United States. The Administrator and Chief Executive
Officer of BPA shall consult with the Deputy Secretary prior to issuance of a
waiver pursuant to 1605(b)(2) or 1605(b)(3). I further delegate the responsibility
