The Public Utility Commission (PUC) estimates that implementing the provisions
of the bill would require two additional full-time equivalents: an Engineer VI,
at $95,000, to aid in the establishment of standards for networks built or
maintained, and a Financial Analyst III, at $75,000, to oversee the financial
aspects of the program. Training costs for these employees would be $2,000 per
year. Therefore, the total personnel cost associated with implementing the
provisions of this bill would be $172,000.
