Bill > SB708

This bill makes technical, nonsubstantive amendments to Section 310 of the Public Utilities Code regarding the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), which is a state regulatory body responsible for overseeing public utilities. The bill clarifies language about the commission's quorum and operational procedures without changing the fundamental substance of the existing law. Specifically, the bill makes minor grammatical and stylistic edits, such as replacing "which" with "that" and adjusting prepositions and pronouns. The core provision remains unchanged: a majority of the five commissioners (typically three) constitutes a quorum, meaning they can conduct business, perform duties, and exercise the commission's powers even if not all commissioner positions are filled. These changes are primarily meant to improve the clarity and readability of the statutory language without altering the legal meaning or operational capabilities of the CPUC.
