Description
STEINMETZ, J. The issue presented in this case is: Does the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin ("PSC" or "commission")
have the authority to order a utility to pay a lump sum penalty based on the utility's past imprudent management? In 1989, the PSC determined that Wisconsin Power and Light Company ("WPL" or "utility") had imprudently administered a coal
contract. The commission found that as a result of this alleged imprudence, WPL overcharged its customers for electricity
from 1974 until 1989. Accordingly, the PSC ordered WPL to pay $9 million in penalties.
