Section 45-37A-461 Electric supplier service territories. (a) 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 in and around the City of Tarrant City, Alabama.
