PSC Warns Drivers: Click It or Ticket
CHARLESTON, WV – Public Service Commission of West Virginia has joined forces with the Governor’s Highway Safety Program (GHSP), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and other law enforcement agencies in the Click It or Ticket blitz that runs from May 14 through the Memorial Day weekend. This annual program reminds motorists that seat belts not only save lives, but failure to wear one could result in a ticket. While other agencies concentrate their efforts on the general public, the PSC’s Enforcement Officers deliver the seat belt safety message to drivers of commercial motor vehicles.

Public participation is an important element in cases before the Public Service Commission. When one of your utility companies requests a change that will affect your service or what you pay for that service, you have a right to know what is at stake and to voice your opinion to the Commission. And we want to hear from you.
I recommend three actions to keep you informed about PSC cases. The first is to sign up to receive notice when documents are filed in the case. On the PSC website: www.psc.state.wv.us, click on Case Subscriptions under the Formal Case Information heading. You will need to create an account that will enable you to track as many cases as you wish. Then log in and follow the prompts to add a subscription. Once you do this you will receive an email update every time a non-restricted document is filed in that case.
