Abstract
Electric utilities remain uncertain about their status in cogeneration because the Supreme Court will be reviewing a case which stays the effect of two appeals court rulings vacating the federal avoided-cost regulation of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA). A state survey shows some questioning of whether state regulations will be affected by the lack or amendment of federal pricing regulations. The basic issue centers on federal preemption and states' rights. (DCK)
