PSC issues decision approve the SCANA/Dominion merger

The Public Service Commission held a Commission Business Meeting on December 14, 2018 to issue its ruling regarding pending SCE&G Matters.  The PCS provided the last approval needed for Dominion Energy to acquire SCANA.

According to Gov. Henry McMaster: “Since we learned of SCANA and Santee Cooper’s decision to abandon the VC Summer Project, my goal has been to ensure that the customers bear no burden for the failings of others. The Public Service Commission – which I am confident has vigorously sought to make the best of a bad situation – has conducted a transparent, open process and has carefully deliberated the positions of ratepayers, the power companies, and the court. Our goal now must be to learn from these failures, to never repeat them, and to continue to work diligently for the growth and prosperity of South Carolina.”
