CONNECTICUT, USA — State regulators proposed hefty fines Thursday against Eversource and United Illuminating for the utility companies’ failure to “meet obligations to ratepayers” during and following Tropical Storm Isaias.
The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) is proposing a $30 million fine against Eversource and a $2.1 million fine to United Illuminating.
The proposal comes a week after PURA released its final reports on an investigation into the companies’ response during last year’s storm.
Tropical Storm Isaias left over 1 million residents and businesses without power for an extended period at the same time as a global pandemic and a summer heatwave.
