Ensures the public has virtual access to public service commission proceedings and may file documents electronically

This bill requires the Public Service Commission to allow virtual attendance for public proceedings related to gas, electric, water utilities, and settlement negotiations, while still permitting in-person participation. It also mandates that the commission and administrative law judges accept all documents electronically, eliminating the need for physical copies unless electronic submission is not feasible. The changes apply to all formal and informal matters before the commission, including hearings, rulemaking, and rate proceedings, with limited virtual access restrictions for confidential settlement negotiations.
