Eversource escalates its fight with Connecticut regulators. Suffolk officials want the state to move quickly on groundwater cleanup in East Hampton. Plus, the latest from WSHU’s Birdsong Break. And…
Eversource spent nearly a billion dollars on storm repair in Connecticut between 2018 and 2023 for a series of what it called catastrophic storms.
Regulators approved a lot of that money this summer, but they cut hundreds of millions of dollars from Eversource's request, including about $300 million in interest.
They said they couldn't approve it until they'd reviewed the expenses.
Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont called the appeal an absurd money grab.
State Attorney General William Tong says it's Eversource's own fault because the company dragged its feet in working with the state.
