What it does
Under existing law, the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) has regulatory authority over public utilities. Existing law requires the PUC to award reasonable advocate's fees, reasonable expert witness fees, and other reasonable costs of preparation for and participation in a hearing or proceeding of the PUC involving an electrical, gas, water, or telephone corporation to a customer who complies with specified procedures when the customer's presentation makes a substantial contribution to the adoption, in whole or in part, of the PUC's order or decision and where participation or intervention without an award of fees or costs imposes a significant financial hardship.
