OFFS. 11 A As I have just explained, regulation 12 eliminates much, but not all of the risk from a utility 13 shareholder's investment. One of the recognized 14 limitations on the ratepayers' obligations is that they 15 should not be forced to pay for investments that are not 16 prudently acquired or "used and useful". All of the 17 cited write offs, in one way or another, ran afoul of 18 this rule. The fact that they had to be written off is 20 nor is it peculiar to the regulatory world. In the 22 projects and uneconomic assets are mercilessly destroyed 24 intentions, the prudence of the original investment, or 25 its functional usefulness. 218

Employeeswill be laid off from the bottomjobs on the basis of departmental seniority. There shall be no crossing of lines of progression. In lay-offs, other things being equal, the principle of seniority shall govern. In any case of lay-offs, where seniority is not followed, the union committee shall be privileged to present recommendationsfor the consideration of the company before final action is taken.
