Public utility bill with teeth passed in Harrisburg
Public policy lawmakers in Harrisburg approved a regulatory bill designed to tighten oversight on utility companies. The measure would extend the Public Utilities Commission powers to review contracts, set a sliding rate scale, and require reporting within 30 days of contract actions while allowing six month rate suspensions during investigations. Critics argued the bill would raise costs for small utility customers.
