Today, Governor Mike Braun affirmed his commitment to protecting Hoosiers by calling for an entrepreneurial approach to address utility rates. He named three individuals to the nominating committee of the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC), the administrative agency that makes decisions in the public interest to ensure utilities provide safe and reliable service at just and reasonable rates.
“It is important that the IURC nominating committee look at applicants through a lens that considers one’s ability to protect ratepayers while objectively weighing the facts and proposals that will impact Hoosiers for years to come.” – Governor Mike Braun
The appointees to the nominating committee are Secretary of Energy and Natural Resources Suzie Jaworowski, former Indiana State Representative Dollyne Sherman, and Cory Cochran, a business executive from Floyd County. They will join four members previously nominated by the General Assembly.
With the nominating committee in place, Governor Braun announced that applications are now open for three IURC commissioner vacancies. The nominating committee will review applicants and forward recommended finalists to Governor Braun.
Governor Braun encourages entrepreneurial candidates who will objectively consider proposed energy-related filings and their impact upon Hoosier ratepayers to apply to serve on this commission. The roles are full-time positions.
“Ensuring that Indiana has efficient utilities without overburdening Hoosier families is critically important to me. If you are an entrepreneurial thinker and creative problem solver, I encourage you to apply to join the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission.” — Governor Mike Braun
