The Pennsylvania PUC on September 15 issued another tentative order proposing to cancel the licenses of several retail suppliers and brokers for their alleged failure to provide proof to the Commission, in a format required by the PUC, that the company has a bond or other approved security in the amount directed by the Commission, to replace its expired bond

The tentative order is not final and may be contested by the companies

Unlike other similar orders, the list is notable as it includes at least two retail suppliers believed to be active in the state (as opposed to abandoned supplier certificates that have not been appropriately relinquished)

Similar PUC tentative orders in the past have listed companies as failing to file security with the PUC when the companies had, in fact, done so. For that reason, we will not excerpt the list of companies here, but the list may be found in this PUC order, in Docket M-2015-2490383.

Indeed, the September 15 tentative order states that its data is based on information received by the PUC as of September 2

"As of September 2, 2016, each EGS listed in the Supplier Table below has not provided proof to the Commission that it has a bond or other approved security in the amount directed by the Commission, to replace its expired bond as noted in the table below," the tentative order states, so it may not reflect any proof of security received since September 2 (which may not have been in compliance with deadlines but nevertheless shows the issue may have been rectified already)

We again caution that a company's inclusion on the tentative order list should not necessarily be taken as an indication of non-compliance, particularly as the PUC has erroneously included multiple fully compliant companies in a prior tentative order
