Summary

The bill amends Michigan’s utility law so that gas, electric and steam utilities must obtain Public Service Commission approval before raising rates or changing rate schedules. It creates coordinated filing procedures, notice‑and‑hearing requirements, deadlines for commission decisions, and a refund with interest if a utility raises rates before final approval. The goal is to give customers clearer notice and protection from unapproved rate hikes.
