Beschreibungen
<span>Michael J. DeLor focuses on how the operation and regulation of private electric utilities has become complicated and contentious in the United States in part because of environmental impact. As a consequence, Congress rarely passes substantive economic-based legislation dealing with the topic, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), as the primary federal economic regulator of private electric utilities, must often act without clear legislative guidance.</span>
<span>Public policies are not all regulated the same and they do not receive the same amount of attention from Congress. This book examines what happens at the federal level when a public policy area is defined by complexity and contention.</span>
