Public Service Commission
(PSC # 1-AC-229)
The Public Service Commission of Wisconsin proposes an order to repeal PSC 113.0301 (1m) (j) and (3), 113.0406 (7), 134.062 (2), 134.063 (1) (L), 134.13 (7), 185.33 (18) and 185.37 (2) (L); to amend PSC 113.0301 (1m) (i), 134.062 (1) (k) and 185.37 (2) (k); and to create PSC 113.0408, 113.0409, 134.051, 134.053, 185.30 and 185.305, relating to applications for service and the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act.
Effective 8-1-14.
Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
This rule will not affect small businesses. The s. 227.114(12), Stats., definition of “small business" states that to be considered a small business, the business must not be dominant in its field. Since gas, electric, and water utilities are monopolies in their service territories, they are dominant in their fields, and so, are not small businesses.
