Status:
Killed

Chief Patron:
Danica Roem (D)

Session:
2018 Regular Session

Summary

As Introduced. State Corporation Commission; intervenor compensation.

Establishes a process under which a public interest organization or a retail customer, including an entity representing retail customers, of a public service company is compensated for its expenses when it intervenes in a State Corporation Commission proceeding that is related to the public service company's provision of utility service. Such intervenor's eligibility for compensation is subject to a finding by the Commission that the intervenor's participation in the proceeding made a substantial contribution to the adoption of the Commission's order or decision, the intervenor's participation in the proceeding without an award of compensation imposes a significant financial hardship, and the intervenor represents an interest material to the proceeding which but for an award of compensation would not be adequately represented.
