FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PSC to hold virtual meetings
Lincoln, Thursday, March 19, 2020 – In a proactive effort and
in accordance with the guidelines limiting gathering size,
the Nebraska Public Service Commission will begin holding
its meetings in a virtual setting.
“By moving to a virtual environment, we will continue
conducting Commission business while at the same time
putting the safety of our staff and citizens at the forefront,”
said Commission Chair Mary Ridder.
Beginning with the Commission’s meeting on Tuesday,
March 24, the public will be able to attend meetings
telephonically. Information on how the public will be able
to participate will be posted on meeting agendas.
Commission agendas are posted to the PSC website
calendar, by 10:00 a.m., the day prior to a meeting being
held.
Commissioner Ridder said, “Industry and citizens wishing
to participate in our meetings, can access the phone number
and attendee code provided prior to each meeting. This will
be an interactive process and just like our regular meetings
will provide a time for public comment.”
In continuing efforts to help reduce the spread of the COVID-
19 virus, the PSC will no longer be accepting walk-in
business. Those doing business with the PSC should email,
mail, call or fax their information, applications, or concerns to
the PSC.
“A list of contacts for all of our departments can be found on
the PSC website,” said PSC executive director Mike Hybl. “We
want to thank everyone in advance for their cooperation and
encourage you to reach out to us by the means provided.”
The PSC will work to provide information on its website <
www.psc.nebraska.gov > and through its social media.
