Utilities chief urged utility stockholders to share shutdown costs

An economics professor told the Vermont Public Service Board that Vermont Yankee shutdown costs of 2.6 million dollars should fall partly on shareholders rather than being passed to ratepayers. He argued the purchased power clause should not guarantee utility profits, and PSB should weigh lower returns for those allowed to shift costs. In Burlington a federal judge dismissed a 1 million dollar wrongful death suit from the widow of a man shot by a city officer, ruling the case cannot be refiled. The plaintiff’s attorney was the ACLU. officers involved were cleared of fault after the man was shot as police suspected a weapon but found wirecutters.
