Search for full-text information in this one complete source - The
Utilities Law Reporter is organized into three convenient volumes—two
federal volumes and one state volume. The federal volumes are devoted to
federal laws and regulations, along with opinions of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) and federal court cases. They start their
coverage with the full text of the Federal Power Act and the Natural Gas
Act—both broken down section by section, annotated with decisions by the
courts and FERC, and cross-referenced to pertinent rules and regulations.
Related portions of the Natural Gas Policy Act, the Public Utility Regulatory
Policies Act and related statutes, such as the Public Utility Holding Company
Act, are covered as well. The federal volumes also contain the full text of
regulations, FERC orders and current court decisions, including U.S. Supreme
Court decisions, in full text.
The state volume provides you with the full text of current court decisions, including state supreme court decisions. Headnotes precede each decision to tell you up front the issues involved and conclusions reached in each case.
Keep yourself current on trends and new developments - With your subscription to Utilities Law Reporter, you'll have access to all the latest information with semi-monthly updates and Report Letters. The Report Letter summarizes recent developments in the field, highlighting news items contained in the updates as well as utility industry news that is of current interest. It contains news stories, reported decisions and notices of regulatory and statutory developments that help you stay in touch with the changes affecting these industries, especially important in light of the current deregulation and restructuring policies as well as energy shortages.
Expedite your research with helpful features - The Utilities Law Reporter contains special features to help you locate the utilities information you need quickly and efficiently. These include a FERC personnel table listing the Chairman, Commissioners, officers and regional office locations, a Table of Abbreviations and a finding list for FERC orders. In addition, Case Tables, Topical Indexes, and Finding Lists provide chronological and alphabetical access to federal laws as well as access to relevant sections of the U.S. Code and Code of Federal Regulations. There is also a Docket Reference.
Gain a better understanding of the two major statutes - Utilities Law Reporter includes both administrative and court decisions construing and applying the provisions of the Federal Power Act and the Natural Gas Act, which have been annotated to assist you in understanding the development and application of these two major statutes. The annotations cover hard-to-find orders by FERC's predecessor, the Federal Power Commission, as well as all FERC orders relating to these two laws. Court decisions date back to the early days of the laws and provide you with a complete historical guide to these statutes.
