Utility plans to be aired at hearing today

Nevada Power Co. and state regulators will answer questions from ratepayers regarding a long-term resource plan proposed by the local electric company.

The event today was planned by the state Public Utilities Commission for 4 p.m. at the Las Vegas Senior Center, 451 E. Bonanza Road.

The plan includes proposals for increasing the local electric transmission system as well as the construction of two new local power plants at a cost of more than $450 million.

"The electric resource plan is one of the most important applications that comes before the Commission," PUC Chairman Don Soderberg said.
