2009-04 - This survey was
designed to develop a national energy perspective from within the National
Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC). This is the first
nationwide survey of this association specifically focused on energy and the
immediate challenges facing the energy industry. The questions were
developed with input from NARUC executive staff and commissioners in
California, Colorado, North Carolina, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The
survey was conducted between December 4, 2007 and February 15, 2008 with 41
states and the District of Columbia (83 percent) participating.

2009-12-30 - For each element of delegated authority – goals, roles and
criteria – this article identifies where courts have responded to statutory
gaps and indefinite elements of regulation. From those cases, a path emerges
