Synopsis

The first annual report of the New York Public Service Commission explains how a new state agency began overseeing railroads, gas and electric utilities, and other common carriers. It outlines the commission’s mission, structure, and the broad scope of its regulatory powers.


Readers will see how the commission organized its work into six divisions, what each division handles, and why technical expertise matters in guiding capital, rates, and service. The document presents the practical groundwork for supervision, including how complaints, tariffs, and infrastructure are reviewed and approved.

  • How the six divisions are structured and what duties they perform.

  • How capitalization, rates, and service quality are evaluated and regulated.
