Description

On Petition for Rehearing The respondents have filed a petition for rehearing and the relators have filed a motion to dismiss
the petition. The petition for rehearing calls our attention to the use of the word "consumer" in referring to the Boone County Rural Electric
Membership Corporation in our opinion, and points out that the corporation is a public utility purchasing electrical power
for sale and transmission from the Public Service Company of Indiana, Inc. Technically "consumer" is a misnomer, but obviously
we use the word in a broad sense as synonymous with customer or ratepayer. Either of such words could have been substituted
without changing the meaning of anything we said in our opinion. In so far as rate proceedings under Indiana statutes are
concerned all customers or ratepayers are in the same category whether their purchases are at retail or wholesale. There are
occasions, of course, when the characteristics of the purchases might be important upon the issue of discrimination. The statute
with respect to the initiation of rate proceedings by public utilities is not limited to merely retail rate proceedings but
pertain to "any rates, tolls, charges." Acts 1951 1951, ch. 161, 1, p. 415, being 54-415, Burns' 1951
Replacement and Acts 1913, ch. 76, 72, p. 167, being 54-423, Burns' 1951 Replacement, and Acts 1913,
ch. 76, 77, p. 167, being 54-428 Burns' 1951 Replacement. The statutes in Indiana relating to rates
and rate proceedings do not make any distinction between retail and wholesale customers in so far as we are concerned here.
Since the Public Service Commission has to review all the rates and all the income of the public utility charging the rates,
no effective rate proceeding could be conducted were it otherwise.
