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.
Ideal for readers of regulatory history, policy makers, and anyone interested in early 20th‑century public utilities in New York.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a condensation of the first annual report released by the Public Service Commission of New York's Second District, which oversaw steam railroads as well as light, heat, and power companies. The report, covering the period of July to December 1907, offers insights into significant public hearings, personal correspondences, investigations, and other activities undertaken by the recently created Commission. The report covers topics such as the adequacy and efficiency of steam railroad service, the capitalization of corporations, and the Commission's efforts to improve the quality of life for New York residents. The observations and data presented in this report provide context for understanding the landscape of public utilities and the policies enforced by regulatory bodies at the turn of the 20th century.
