The purpose of this subchapter is to:
(1) Promote and obtain information concerning the management efficiency of electric utilities engaged in major construction projects.
(2) Encourage electric utilities to seek and secure contractual agreements for construction and procurement which will minimize construction costs. The contractual agreements shall be consistent with considerations of quality, reliability and life cycle costs.
(3) Gather information about electric utility construction practices and construction management programs, so that the Commission is able to arrive at carefully reasoned decisions about the prudency of utility management, when construction costs are considered in a rate case.
