The Public Service Commissions (PSC) authority over public utilities has been changed by recent decisions by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and legislation enacted in Delaware. This Act changes the statutory requirements for PSC public utilities to remove requirements that are no longer consistent with the FCC decisions and revised State laws but impose unnecessary burdens and costs on utilities and administrative costs to the PSC. This Act also removes an unnecessary administrative requirement regarding motor vehicle dealers.

An Act To Amend Title 6 And Title 26 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Public Service Commission And The Regulation Of Motor Vehicle Dealers And Public Utilities.
