Montana Public Service Commission Begins Audio Webcasts of Meetings

Anyone with a computer and internet access may now listen to the proceedings of
the state Public Service Commission via an audio webcast. The audio feed is
available by visiting the PSCís website at http://www.psc.state.mt.us/ clicking
on the eDocuments link, scrolling down to the Work Session Audio Feed link, and
following the instructions there.

The PSCís weekly business meetings, which are usually scheduled for 9:30 a.m.
each Tuesday and during which the PSC discusses and decides regulatory issues,
will be available via the audio webcast beginning December 7. Agendas for the
weekly meetings are posted in advance on the PSC’s website.

The PSC plans to archive some audio webcasts on its website so that interested
persons who missed the live audio feed may listen later to the proceedings.

According to PSC Chairman Bob Rowe, "This will make the Commissionís proceedings
even more open and accessible than they already are. Customers and service
providers from Eureka to Broadus will be able to listen to the Commissionís
meetings on-line without spending a day getting to and from Helena."
