PSC: Tell us what's wrong with our report, BGE

To hear the Public Service Commission tell it, Baltimore Gas & Electric and parent Constellation Energy have complained to everybody about the PSC's stranded-cost report except the PSC. Now the agency has called a hearing for next week for BGE to have its say.

Constellation Energy Group has made public statements indicating the reports contain inaccuracies. According to statements of the company’s CEO information has been distributed to Wall Street analysts, Maryland Legislators, and the Governor that allegedly rebuts the Commission’s reports. This information has not been provided to the PSC. In accordance with the provisions of Senate Bill 400, the PSC is initiating this proceeding to investigate further the issues identified in its report, and is holding this hearing at the outset to allow BGE to identify and explain the errors it claims the Commission has made.

The hearing is a week from today -- Feb. 6. Here is my column on the report.
