Tom Carper: “We are going to focus in this Subcommittee and our Committee, at least from my perspective, on how do we get better…”

We are better off when we hear community concerns at the beginning of the process rather than at the end.

I think the greatest way that the Commission can have an impact on that is probably through our rate-making authority.

Public engagement can build trust, it can increase public buy-in, can help resolve issues, can help prevent litigation, and ultimately it can save time and money.

People ask me what I am proudest of in my life, and I always say, raising three boys, with a big assist from their mom.
