APPRAISAL

Administrative Historical

A five year retention has been set for this record at the request of the commission. A sampling of the transcripts is suggested as there is research value in the records both as to the economic information on public utilities and as to the function of the commission. However, retention of all transcripts is not recommended for two reasons: 1) the transcripts are not complete--transcripts are not made for all hearings; 2) the volume of the record is too great to make preservation of all of them practical.
