The Maine Public Utilities Commission is a government agency that regulates water, electric, natural gas, and telecommunications in the state of Maine.[1] The commission also oversees ferries and water taxis in Casco Bay.
The three full-time commissioners are nominated by the governor, reviewed by the legislature’s Joint Standing Committee on Utilities and Energy and confirmed by the full senate, for staggered terms of 6 years. The governor designates one commissioner as chairman. The commissioners make all final commission decisions by public vote or action of the majority. The current chairman is Phil Bartlett.
