Public Accountability

The Office of Public Accountability (OPA) is a City Charter mandated Office that was created to provide public
independent analysis of Department of Water and Power (DWP) actions as they relate to water and electricity rates.
OPA is charged with shedding greater light on DWP's operations and finances, and analyzing proposed changes in
water and power rates independent of the DWP and City Officials. All direct and indirect costs of the OPA are
reimbursed by the DWP.
