WAC 480-143-120. Transfers of property

A public service company may not complete a transfer of property necessary or useful to perform its public duties unless the company first applies for, and obtains, commission approval. Transfers include sale, lease, assignment of all or part of a public service company's property, and merger or consolidation of a public service company's property with another public service company. Certain telephone utility leases are exempt under WAC 480-143-200 . Applications must describe transfers in detail and must include the public service company's current financial statements and copies of all transfer instruments.
