United utilities fight over registration under new deal law
In Washington a second phase of the unities versus new deal clash unfolds as officials say a ruling will take a year or more.

Middlewest Corp led filings with 102 subsidiaries, followed by New England Power Association and New England Public Service Co. Several prominent groups such as United Gas Improvement and Cities Service refuse to file.
