Did PUCO Have Authority to Give Gas Company Control Over Repair of Customer-Owned Service Lines?

Utility Service Partners, Inc. v. The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio, Case no. 2008-1507

ISSUE: Did the state Public Utilities Commission (PUCO) exceed its authority by granting Columbia Gas of Ohio exclusive control over the repair or replacement of customer-owned service lines in its service area, effectively nullifying outside gas line repair contracts between more than 100,000 Columbia customers and private warranty service providers?
