Fiscal Impact/Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
There will be no fiscal impact of the proposed rules on state or local units of government. There should also be no significant fiscal impact on the utilities and others subject to these rules, including municipally-owned electric utilities, as there are no significant new or additional requirements contained in this revision of these rules. The proposed rules will have no effect on small businesses.
Environmental Assessment
This is a Type III action under s. PSC 4.10(3), Wis. Adm. Code. Since no unusual circumstances have come to the attention of the Commission which indicate that significant environmental consequences are likely, neither an environmental impact statement under s. 1.11, Stats., nor an environmental assessment is required.
