Oklahoma regulators will get back to normal business

 

Oklahoma Corporation Commissioners will meet this week and for the first time in a few weeks, the matter of the Todd Hiett scandal is not on the agenda.

The agenda does not include any discussion of the allegations that he drunkenly attempted to grope a man at a hotel bar in June in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Instead, it will be back to business at hand for the state regulators including a possible vote on a Performance Based Rate Change Plan Calculations for Oklahoma Natural Gas Company.

There will also be discussion on a 2023 ruling that authorized schools to receive E-rate support for Wi-Fi on school buses.

The meeting will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday in the Concourse Theater of the Will Rogers Memorial Office Building at the state capitol.

As for Commissioner Hiett, his lawsuit filed last week in state Supreme Court against Corporation Commissioner BobAnthony awaits a ruling. Hiett is seeking a writ of prohibition to stop Commissioner Anthony from conducting his own investigation into the allegations that arose during a national convention. The court set a Sept. 9 deadline for Anthony to respond.
