Utilities seek tax pass through to customers before PSC

In a hearing, officials cited about 1.5 million dollars in line construction fees since 1976 and a possible 92.3 percent tax impact if taxed by the IRS. The plan would set up a trust for tax proceeds and refunds if tax collection fails. The commission took the application under advisement.
