Click HERE to see the News Release from Citizens Action Coalition, the Sierra Club Hoosier Chapter, Valley Watch and Save the Valley  dated July 2, 2012. These groups are opposing the Settlement Agreement filed by the OUCC et al.

I urge you to read these News Release, watch the hearings and decide for yourself if the IURC should accept the proposed Settlement Agreement. Don't be surprised if portions of the hearings go off-line or "in camera" and you see the following message:

HEARING OFFLINE

The IURC’s hearing will resume shortly due to a scheduled break or an in camera session. An in camera session is where parties to the case discuss matters required to be kept confidential in accordance with IC 5-14-3-4. These sessions are limited to certain witnesses and parties authorized to view the confidential information. Once the break is over or the in camera session concludes, the online video streaming will resume.

 PLEASE BE PATIENT.
