Central Maine Power rate rise trimmed by PUC
The Public Utilities Commission approved an $809,000 annual rate increase for Central Maine Power, far below the company's $3.15 million request. CMP President William F. Wyman called the decision disappointing but indicated support for future needs. The new plan raises average monthly bills about 1.3 percent, with rates to apply after a filed schedule. The PUC cut the rate base by about $7.3 million and rejected some expenses as nonrecurring, citing a weak 1958 revenue year. Witnesses noted inflated values on some acquired properties. The commission also reduced working capital from $4.63 million to $1 million, arguing customers should not pay a return on that proposed amount.
