DENVER — The Public Utilities Commission (PUC), part of the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA), and an Administrative Law Judge will conduct a remote public comment hearing on Wednesday, November 17, to take comments and ask questions regarding the resulting modifications to the Commission’s statutory authority through the adoption of Senate Bill 20-118, Senate Bill 21-260, and House Bill 21-1206.
Senate Bill 21-118 relates to the transportation of hazardous and nuclear materials, Senate Bill 21-260 addresses transportation infrastructure and impacts transportation companies such as Lyft and Uber, and Senate Bill 21-1206 relates to Medicaid transportation services.
