Consumer groups win delay of hearing

Published April 27, 2006 4:00am ET



The Public Service Commission canceled the hearing scheduled Wednesday on the Constellation Energy-Florida Power and Light merger, because of concerns related to questions over the link between the merger and the electric rate stabilization plan.

PSC spokeswoman Christine Nizer said the delay raised in the petition filed by Citizen?s Watch and Acorn had prompted the staff to recommend a delay, which the commission approved. No new hearing date has been set.
