Governor Beshear Receives Bill to Expand Kentucky Public Service Commission

Governor Beshear Receives Bill to Expand Kentucky Public Service Commission

Governor Andy Beshear has received Senate Bill 8, which proposes to expand the Kentucky Public Service Commission (PSC) from three to five members. This bill, if signed, would allow the governor to appoint all five members, subject to Senate approval, with a stipulation that no more than three members can belong to the same political party. The bill includes an emergency clause, meaning it would take effect immediately upon the governor's signature. The PSC is responsible for approving or denying utility rate increases and considering merger proposals, such as those from Louisville Gas & Electric and Kentucky Utilities. The original version of the bill included provisions to limit advocacy group participation in PSC cases and to move the PSC under the auditor's office, but these were removed following opposition.
