Director of Light and Power
Abraham Alemu A °A' .
Electric Resources Planning & Development Manager
SUBJECT: Reclassification — Edwin Ochoa
A close review of administrative staffing of the Resource Management Group in the
Light & Power Department has been on -going. Since CAISO launched the MRTU, the
billing and settlements activities relating to power transactions have increased and
added to the work load. To alleviate the problem, at this time I am recommending
following change to staffing.
Presently, Edwin Ochoa is classified as Administrative Clerk with a current monthly
base salary of $1,788. 1 am recommending to create the position of "Associate
Resource Scheduler I" a beginning level position that requires knowledge of accounting
and computer skills. Mr. Ochoa has displayed fair accounting knowledge and necessary
computer skills to assume the responsibilities of Associate Resource Scheduler I. He
currently assists with CAISO billing and settlement matters on a daily basis. He
downloads CAISO statements and invoices, updates various excel spreadsheets that
track CAISO charges, converts and manages CAISO files, tracks invoices, assist in
validating charges from the CAISO, prepares various reports and prepares the CAISO
invoices for payment. He is diligent in completing tasks and projects as necessary and
his work ethics are essential to this group. I recommend Mr. Ochoa to be re-classified
as Associate Resource Scheduler I, step 8, effective July 4, 2010, with a new monthly
base salary of $3,149.00.
Attached is the Associate Resource Scheduler I job description and proposed salary
range..
