A 'Utilities commission', 'Utility Regulatory Commission' (URC), or 'Public Utilities Commission' (PUC) is a governing body that regulates the rates and services of a utility.
The utility that is being regulated may be owned by the consumers that it serves, a mutual utility like a Public Utility District, a state or government owned utility, or it may be a stockholder owned utility either publicly traded on a stock exchange or closely held among just a few investors.
