SF 1472 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Definition modification of administrative action as it applies to the Public Utilities Commission

This bill modifies the legal definition of "administrative action" specifically for the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) under Minnesota law. It explicitly clarifies that the PUC's application of rules - including rate setting, power plant/siting decisions, and certificate of need approvals - counts as an "administrative action," which was previously excluded. The change ensures these routine regulatory activities are treated consistently under the statute. This is a procedural adjustment to the definition, not a new policy.
