P U C probes rates of 169 utility firms in Pennsylvania
Harrisburg July reports reveal undepreciated fixed capital of almost two billion dollars in 169 public utilities. The Public Utility Commission began the rate investigations on its own initiative from April 1937 to July 1, 1938. Savings from recent tariff actions and deposits lowered annual electric bills by over 3 million dollars, with total utility savings reaching millions for ratepayers. The commission seeks to determine just how much customers have saved and will face future adjustments.
