In a peat profile there is a fossilized record of changes over time in the vegetation, pollen, spores, animals (from microscopic to the giant elk), and archaeological remains that have been deposited in place, as well as pollen, spores and particles brought in by wind and weather.ver time, the formation of peat is often the first step in the geological formation of other fossil fuels such as coal, particularly low-grade coal such as lignite.
Water and Sewer Utilities. The Public Utility Commission (PUC) is responsible for the general supervision and oversight of water and sewer utility regulation. This supervision and oversight includes processing applications for certified retail water and sewer utility service areas. The PUC also regulates retail water and sewer rates with original jurisdiction over certain rate functions and appellate jurisdiction over others.
In general, municipal utilities and rural electric cooperatives are not regulated and the policies do not apply to them. Check with your PUC/PSC contacts and/or websites below to see if the state policy applies to your utility and read the Consumer FAQs or Bill of Rights for more information. If you have a dispute with your utility, you should try and resolve it with the utility first before calling your PUC/PSC.
