Act to hear and pass upon applications and
proceedings pertaining to interstate motor
carrier operation conducted in or through
not more than three states.
By Chapter 234, Acts of 1973, the Gen-
eral Assembly provided for a new method
of financing the operations of the Public
Service Commission. The filing fee of .0009
imposed on gross intrastate utility operating
revenues was repealed. In its place utilities
and common carriers under the jurisdiction
of the Commission are assessed a propor-
tionate share of the Commission's direct and
indirect expenses based on their proportion
of jurisdictional revenues.
The Office of People's Counsel operates
independently from the Commission and
may participate in all proceedings before the
Commission. People's Counsel represents the
interests of the Maryland consumers gener-
ally before the Commission and facilitates
their inquiries on specific utility complaints.
The People's Counsel may appear before
any Federal or State Agency as necessary to
protect the interests of residential or non-
commercial users (Chapter 756, Acts of
1976). The Office of People's Counsel may
utilize existing staff of the Commission, and
may also retain additional expert witnesses
to testify in various proceedings before the
Commission.
