ELPC has been fighting the unnecessary, expensive, and destructive Cardinal-Hickory Creek transmission line on behalf of the Driftless Area Land Conservancy and the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation. In May, our public interest attorneys filed a public records lawsuit demanding the Wisconsin Public Service Commission (PSC) release documents in its possession related to concerns that then-Commissioner Michael Huebsch last year engaged in extensive communications with one of the active parties in the contested case proceeding before the PSC. “The ongoing months-long delay is impermissible and contradicts the Open Records Law’s purpose of ensuring the public has prompt access to information about government operations,” said Rachel Granneman, ELPC Staff Attorney.
