CHARLESTON, W.Va. — The state Public Service Commission has scheduled three public hearings in connection with a rate case filed by Mon Power and Potomac Edison.
The hearings begin Oct. 1 in Flatwoods followed by an Oct. 2 meeting in Morgantown and Oct. 6 at Shepherd University.
The case, which was filed in April, seeks a $96 million increase in the companies’ base rate and $48 million to pay for an enhanced vegetation clearing program already approved by the PSC.
If approved, the average customer’s power bill would go up about $14 a month.
