Introduced

SB 597 - This act specifies that no private entity, which is defined as a utility company that does not provide service to end-use customers or provide retail service in Missouri, or does not collect its costs to provide service under a regional transmission organization tariff, regardless of whether it has received a certificate of convenience and necessity from the Public Service Commission, shall have the power of eminent domain for the purpose of constructing above-ground merchant lines, as such term is defined in the act.

This act is identical to SCS/HB 1062 (2019).
