What is a Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC)?

A utilities and transportation commission (UTC) is generally a regulatory body at the state level responsible for regulating utilities that provide service within a state. The commission is comprised of either state-elected or state-appointed officials. These members regulate all electric, gas, water, cable and telephone retail in many states, and are also generally responsible for ensuring that utilities are responsive to customers' needs and service requests, and that service is both adequate and reliable.

How Washington UTC describes itself:

Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission is a three-member board with associated staff who regulate the rates, services, and practices of privately-owned utilities and transportation companies, including electric, telecommunications, natural gas, water, and solid waste collection companies.
