Utica hearing columns oppose Niagara Mohawk rate hike
More than 250 people from Herkimer and Oneida counties packed the Utica State Office Building to urge the Public Service Commission to deny Niagara Mohawk Power Corp. a 183.3 million rate increase. Speakers warned the hike would raise electric and gas bills, threaten jobs, and push households into poverty while a rate flattening provision would still hit 60 percent of customers. PSC Examiner Boschwitz heard testimony and will resume in Syracuse next Tuesday.

House approves bill to lift price controls on independents
The House backed decontrol for about 3,500 independent natural gas producers while keeping ceilings on 25 to 30 large firms and extending intrastate price limits. The measure diverges from the Senate plan for full decontrol, heading to a conference committee with uncertain prospects. Rep Neal Smith says prices for independents could rise to about 1 per thousand cubic feet, but consumer impact remains unclear amid mixed gas sourcing.

Upsilon particle shocks physics at Fermilab meeting
A new particle named upsilon, the heaviest elementary particle observed, was reported by Columbia University, Fermilab and SUNY Stony Brook researchers led by Leon Lederman. Using protons at Fermilab, the team detected a cluster of electron-positron pairs with a mass around 5.96 BEV, suggesting an infinite series of elementary particles and challenging basic matter units.
