Former IURC Lawyer Reprimanded in Duke IGCC Case Scandal

摘要

The Indiana Supreme Court announced February 3 that it publicly reprimanded former Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC) administrative law judge Scott Storm for negotiating a job with Duke Energy at the same time that he was overseeing portions of Duke’s “Edwardsport” integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) rate case. “The discipline imposed might have been more severe had this matter been submitted [to the Indiana Supreme Court] without the Commission’s agreement to the proposed discipline,” according to the Court order.
