PSC sticks to ruling on Potomac Edison rate hike
The West Virginia Public Service Commission will not reconsider its decision denying a 4.5 million rate increase for Potomac Edison. The panel cut the proposed amount to 2.1 million to let the company cover its annual liability. In a separate incident, Clyde Chaney, 45, of Newell was killed in a two car crash on Route 2 near here. Diana L. Shaffer of East Liverpool, Ohio, was treated and released.
