Ehrlich could hear from all who signed up to testify in hearing

As many as 75 to 100 people may testify today at Gov. Robert Ehrlich?s “veto” hearing on legislation to reduce BGE electric rates and replace the Public Service Commission that approved 72 percent rate increases.

People interested in testifying had until 3 p.m. Monday to sign up on the state Web site. There may be enough time in the five-hour hearing starting at 3 p.m. today to hear from each of them for three minutes a person, according to Ehrlich?s legislative director Alan Friedman.
