Memo detailing Baltimore-BGE conduit deal should not be kept from the public, regulators order

Maryland’s utility regulation commission has denied Baltimore Gas and Electric Co.’s effort to shield from the public an internal memo detailing an agreement it struck with Baltimore earlier this year following a request by utility watchdog the Maryland Office of People’s Counsel. In a ruling issued Monday, the Maryland Public Service Commission said it found no grounds for maintaining a confidential designation for the memo as BGE requested. The commission, which reviewed the document, said the memo included no commercial or financially sensitive information.
