Section 37-14-30 Declaration of findings and policy; relationship to 1984 act. The Legislature of the State of Alabama has investigated the economic, financial and environmental impact associated with the potential for duplication of electric distribution facilities used for the furnishing of retail electric service. It has been determined that with respect to retail electric sales, the benefit normally associated with competition between two or more entities for customers is outweighed by the tremendous cost burden which must be borne by such customers associated with the maintenance of two or more duplicate sets of facilities.

It is therefore declared that the policy of the State of Alabama is to ensure effective,...
