SCC Hears Opposition To Vepco Rate Boost
The State Corporation Commission resumes its hearing on Virginia Electric and Power Co. rate hike plans for a 10 percent increase. Opponents argue Vepco used accounting to inflate its rate base, while Wheat & Co. contends rate relief is needed to avoid higher consumer costs and capital issues. Vepco officials defend the request as essential for financial soundness amid stock market activity.
