RICHMOND — The State Corporation Commission (SCC) is offering a convenient site in Norton to receive testimony from public witnesses on April 24, 2012, on a request by Kentucky Utilities Company to increase its fuel rate. The session will begin at 10 a.m. in the Norton City Council Chambers at 618 Virginia Avenue. Any person wishing to testify should arrive early and notify the SCC bailiff.

The Norton location will connect by a live telephone link with the previously scheduled SCC hearing on the company’s request in Richmond in the Commission’s second floor courtroom located in the Tyler Building at 1300 East Main Street.
