Description
On November 9, 1978, President Carter signed the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978, 16 U.S.C. § 2601 et seq., hereinafter referred to as PURPA or the Act. 16 U.S.C. § 2631(a) authorizes any electric consumer (among others) to intervene and participate as a matter of right in any rate making proceeding or other appropriate regulatory proceeding relating to rates or rate design which is conducted by a state regulatory authority. 16 U.S.C. § 2632(a)(1) establishes the electric utilities liability to compensate such consumer intervenors for certain fees and costs incurred to prepare and advocate their positions. The section further provides that a consumer may collect such fees and costs in a civil action unless the state regulatory authority has adopted a reasonable procedure for determining the amount of and for including an award of, such fees and costs in its order in the proceeding. 16 U.S.C. § 2632(a)(2).
