Commission to Consider CP and L Hike
North Carolina Utilities Commission began two days of hearings on CP&L's request for a 12 percent interim rate increase. Company president Shearon Harris said the $50 million yearly boost funds routine maintenance and boosts bond ratings to attract capital for projects. Critics argued CP&L's finances are sound and that demand growth is modest. Separate agriculture note cites a rise in nondescript tobacco grades and 1975 production around 954 million pounds amid weather and bulk barn issues.
