PURA reschedules one docket, adopts consent calendars and two directives in unanimous vote
Summary
At its Feb. 18 teleconference, PURA removed a docket from the agenda for rescheduling, adopted two consent calendars covering nine dockets each, and unanimously adopted two internal directives (2.5 and 2.6) formalizing motion‑ruling procedures and presiding‑officer designation rules.
The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority on Feb. 18 modified its agenda, rescheduling a pending docket; adopted consent calendars covering multiple dockets; and unanimously approved two internal directives that formalize processes for motion rulings and designation of presiding officers.
Early in the meeting Chairman Tom Wheel said the panel needed to remove item 2 from Part A—the decision in docket 25‑0‑8‑17—from today’s calendar and reschedule it for a later regular meeting. A motion to modify the agenda was moved and seconded; after a roll call by the clerk the panel voted unanimously to remove and reschedule that docket.
The panel then approved the remaining item in Part A (a separate docket concerning a Crown Castle application) and moved to Part B, a consent calendar of nine proposed final decisions and motion rulings. A motion to adopt items 1–9 in Part B was moved and seconded and adopted on a unanimous roll call. Part C presented nine proceedings for designation of presiding officers; commissioners again moved, seconded and unanimously adopted items 1–9.
In Part D the panel considered two directives requiring unanimous consent for future modification. Directive 2.5, which sets out the procedure for motion rulings and requires that rulings identify the commissioner(s) who ruled and preserve the right for parties to seek full‑panel review, was moved, seconded and adopted unanimously. Directive 2.6, describing the role and designation process for presiding officers and similarly requiring unanimous consent for future changes, was likewise adopted unanimously.
Chairman Wheel closed the meeting, scheduled the next regular remote teleconference for Wednesday, Feb. 25, 2026, at 9 a.m., and adjourned.
