Part 8 (2008/014): Additions, 1989-1999
Physical Description: 3.8 cubic feet (3 records center cartons and 2 archives boxes) 
Scope and Content Note: Records, 1989-1999, for several court cases concerning Wisconsin utilities considered to be landmark decisions because of their rulings on the authority of the Public Service Commission (PSC). Of more general interest is a case successfully brought by Wisconsin Power and Light against the PSC after the commission ordered a lump sum penalty paid to ratepayers because of imprudent management. One commission case, 98-CV-682, apparently not appealed to court, concerns a dispute between the Eau Claire Electric Cooperative and Northern States Power Company concerning extension of lines.
