Who is the PSC?
The Louisiana Public Service Commission (PSC) regulates areas of the Motor Carrier, Telecommunications, Electric, Gas, Water and Sewerage industries [1].
Why they matter: they decide on things from solar panels and net metering [2] to fines for companies that illegally placed surcharge fees on prisoner telephones [3]. They're the big deal you may have never heard of.
The Public Service Commission is a part of the executive branch. It consists of five members who are elected for overlapping terms of six years at the time [4].
