FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Department of Commerce and Insurance – Public Service Commission 
(PSC) assume the proposal will have no fiscal impact on their respective organization. 
Oversight notes that 393.1800.4 states that if an electrical corporation fails to have sufficient 
capacity for the upcoming planning year, and it is determined by the commission to be the result 
of the electrical corporation's imprudence, the commission may disallow, after conducting a 
hearing, any associated costs related to the failure in a future proceeding.
Upon further inquiry, the PSC stated that they do not believe that PSC has ever found a utility 
imprudent as it relates to capacity. This is new language to help address concerns over future 
generation capacity. 
Officials from the City of Kansas City assume the proposal will have no fiscal impact on their 
respective organizations. 
Oversight notes that the above mentioned agencies have stated the proposal would not have a 
direct fiscal impact on their organization.  Oversight does not have any information to the 
contrary.  Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero impact on the fiscal note.
Oversight only reflects the responses received from state agencies and political subdivisions; 
however, other cities and electric companies were requested to respond to this proposed 
legislation but did not. A listing of political subdivisions included in the Missouri Legislative 
Information System (MOLIS) database is available upon request.
