Iowa utility regulation praised by Maurice Van Nostrand

Iowa Commerce Commission chairman Maurice Van Nostrand says Iowa has the best utility rate regulation law in the United States. He recalls opposing the 1963 measure as a state representative, then notes the staff's growth and the system's protections during inflationary periods. He cites lengthy delays in past cases, current efficiencies, and the commission’s taxpayer costs borne by utilities, with strong resistance to utility self-regulation. The piece also covers confirmation debates in the Senate and various local auctions and sales listed at the end.
