State Utility Commissions


State utility commissions regulate consumer service and rates for
gas, electricity and a variety of other services within your state.
These services include rates for telephone calls and moving
household goods. In some states, the utility commissions regulate
water and transportation rates. Rates for utilities and services
provided between states are regulated by the Federal government.

Many utility commissions handle consumer complaints. Sometimes, if
a number of complaints are received about the same utility matter,
they will conduct investigations.
